WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The N. Y. World
editOrially says; "Mr. Woodward, the
gentleman to whom Governor Foster re-
ferred as his authority for saying HOad-
ly had admitted that his nomination
cost him $4,000, has been forced out of
the seclusiOn in which he has hidden
himself for some time, and publishes
his account of the story. The triaing
difference between Fosters story and
WOOdward's is, that in Fosters story it
was Hoadly who says the nomination
cost him $4,000, while in WOodward's g
story it is Woodward who says, in speak

Mrs. Lester read a very beautiful and
able essay, which is here given by re-
quest.
Wonderful indeed have been the
changes which the last century has
brought to us. The car of progress, in
every department of life, has been NOV
ing with such rapidity that when we
contemplate we can but wonder If the
inventive genius of man can do more, if
the ne plus ultra be not reached in this,
the 18th century; and yet, every year so
adds to our growth and intellectual de-
velOpments, the next century may bring
even greater advancement. Utopia will
still be ahead of us, urging us On to
greater effort, nobler endeaVOr, higher
attainments. Suppose the little May
flower" could suddenly appear at Ply
mouth Rock to-day, laden with the
precious freight of noble souls she bore
to these shores more than two hundred
years ago; or later still let a sturdy yeO-
man Of even fifty years ago, enter our
work shops walk our streets, wander
through our gardens, let him taste our
delicious fruits, enjoy our luscious
berries, note the beauty and fragrance of
our flowers, the cOnYenienees and COM
forts of our homes, and compare them
with those of his day.
The spinning wheel has ceased its
humming. The sickle, cradle and seythe

chine which never tires, never is over

Of a human heart which, 1t seems, must
be enveloped in its wonderful frame.

JUDGE NICKNAME. in delivering
the opinion Of The Supreme Court i'll
the Scott law case, says: ii, IN The
Judgment of The General Assembly, it
be necessary, in order 10 prevent evils
resulting from the traffic, that the sale
and use of Intoxicating liquors as a
beverage hs absolutely prohibited, wa
can see no constitutional ground upon
which exercise CT lis judgment and
discretion can be reviewed by the
Courts of the State sH
This is assuredlY a new discovery,
no one ever having dreamed before
that the Leg!sl@tars, ,uuaef the present
constitution, possessed the power to
prohibit The traffic. Had il been known
that the power existed already, what a
world OF Time, Iio1bls and expense
would it not hdve saved in the effort
every few years 10 amend the organic
law 30 as to clothe Lie Legislature with
the authsrity which the Supreme
Court asserts already exists. Accord
ing 10 this holding there is no use fer
further. pother about this matter, all
the parties need 20 do is TO fairly and
openly declare their position on the
question, and fight il Out on Shsi line.

Troubled In spirit.

The Republican leaders are terribly
torn up on account Of the religious
views Of Judge Hoadley, who they
assert is a rank inhdel. We have pa
tiently and carefully read the platform
Of this party Of ali the piety, lnrity
and decency ia the lind, an,i falied
utterly 10 discover any clause or sem
tence therein in which they have even
attempted to array themselves on
God'ss de, or TO get up religious issue.
The charge against Judge Hoadiey is
based upon the fact that lie is q MEM
Der and the Vice President OF the
Free Religious Association " of Ros-
ton, Mass, Of which The Index is the
accredited organ and for the purpose
of sustaining their nefarious and false
charge, thay are driven to the desper-
sts necessity OF misquot;ng and for
gerry OF passages from the constitution
of the Association.
The Cincinnati News Journal, after
copying list of the officers of the
Association for 1898, says:
"When Jndge, Hoadley became .
mem ser OF ths Association, Ralph
Waldo Emerson headed the list OF
Vice Presidents, as ne continued to do
until he died. Bernard Felsepthal, OF
Chicago, one of the Vios Presidents,
as seen above, is Jewisil Rabbi; Geo.

The religious opinions of Judge
Hoadley have nothing 20 do with, and
are liz no way involved III this canvass,
But with the canting hypocrltes and
demagoSues who are striving 10 stir
up religious prejudice aud hate, it has
ever been thus since the days OF the

BELLBFoNTAINE EXAMINER; The
claim of the high protectionists that
the rich pay the bu4k OF tariff taxation
is not warranted by the facts in the
case, and cannot be established by any
just showing in the premises. On the
other hand, the faisity of this claim
can be demonstrated beyond cavil or
controversy. Let us take, for instance
the following articles of prime Decess-
ity with the poor and middle classes OF
orr people, and give the amount of
tariff tax with which they are burden
ed: Sugar and moiasses, cotton, wool,
iron, steel, and leather. On thsse lead
ing articles, and the manufactures
thereof, the rate Of duty runs from 2S
to 81 per cent; and upon these articles
alone the total SUM OF $ll0. .S04 ,33l. 81
was collected and paid into the U. s.
Treasury for the fiscal year ending
June so. 1881. Upon articles ciassed
as Injuries, the tariff on Which is paid
as is claimed, by the wealthy, the rate
OF duty runs from 10 per cent. on dia-
monds and paintings, to 81 per cent. on
silk and the manufactures thereof. In
the statement befors us tobacco is
classed with luxuries, and upon it and
the manufactures thereof, the duty is
"a per cent. And yet upon articles OF
luxury, including tobacco, bearing the
heaviest rate of any article OH the list,
the total sum collected for the year
above quoted, was only $35, 2322, ,023, ~
Tobacco, with the exception perhaps
of silk, yielded more of this total than
any other single article. 1t is hardly
necessary to assert here the fact patent
to all, that of both siik and tobacco,
the poor and middle classes Oh account
of their immense numerical msjorlty,
are the largest consumers. 1t is there
fore clear enough by the comparison
we have presented, that our wealthy
population-t0 say nothing of the
"levying back" process, by which Ia
Dor is made to bear double rates-dO
not bear the bulk, nor the half, nor the
fourth of the tariff tax collected undef
our protective system. The following
from the Independence Kansan, while
it Is undoubtedly true, is still further
to the point in this connection
SIT is the practice of the wealthy
class to so to Europe and purchase such
luxuries as they want, thus avoiding
the tariff they would have to pay II
purchased at home, there being no tax
on luxuries when included in the
wardrobe, and this is one reason why
luxuries contribute such an insignii-
cant sum to the revenue"
The above figures may be changed a
little by the revised schedule, but not
materially-certainl not relatively.
Protective duties, in the very nature
of things, lower absolute values on for
eign products, thereby expressing for
eign industry and raise home prices
above actual values, thereby opprsss-
ing home industry. Te put it more
briefly. protective duties increase the
profits Of capital, and lower the re-
wards of labor.

THE constitution of Ohio declares
that all taxation in this state shall be
fixed by a uniform rule. The late two
thirds Republican Legislature passed
an act fixing an arbitrary rule for one
species Of property, which is totally
different from that provided ior the
taxation of all other property. Yet
the Supreme Court of the State holds
this act not to be in violation OF the
constitutional requirement Of uni-
form rule of taxation.
