KUYKENDAL'S SALAAM.

YoRKv1LLE, s. G., January l, 1884
Gratitude is virtue close of kin to justice, and
for spiritual and temporal advancement and ben
efits. it is expected that this emotion should be
the first awakened in the human heart. 1t is,
therefore, but just, and in no matter of form or
mere following of an established custom, that at
the beginning of this New Year, return grateful
acknowledgements to my customers and friends
for the patronage bestowed on me in the past. 1t
is to the enduring confidence and dcontinued sup
port of the public, that is due whatever of sue
cess I have achieved in my business and I here
express the hope that there has nothing occurred
in the transactions between myself and patrons,
that will ALLEVIATE single one of them, dispose
them to look elsewhere rgoods in my line ON
the contrary trust that many just men and
honorable women not few may give me
their trade that have not done so heretofore.
Wishing all contentment with their lot in life,
and success in their several vocations,
am very Respectfully,

THE surplus revenue paid into the
Federal Treasury the past six months
amounts to over $50, 100000, or one
dollar for every man, woman end child
in the land, more than is required for
the administering the Government
even under Republican management.
And yet there are some people who
deny that there is any necessity for
revenue reform.
What would the tax payers of Por-
tage county think of proposition to
levy upon them largely in excess
of the amount needed TO defray the
expenses of our local affairs, and to
have the amount accumulating year
after year, and lying idle III the coun-
ty's strong box? Wouldn't there be
an active and determined demand for
revenue reform, which those who i'm
posed the burden would be forced to
heed and respect? Yet the people are
expected TO approve Federal revenue
system that draws annually from the
pockets of the people OF this country
an hundred million of dollars to be
boarded and lie idle in the Treasury
merely to accommodate few pet
monopolies. Isn't there need of re.
form in this matter?

THE Republicans are bowling for an
Investigation of alleged bribery in
connection with the late Senatorial
contest, and Representative Love, OF
Columbiana county, introduced reso-
luton providing for an investigation.
This move was severely sat down upon
by Represer tative Thorp, who charac.
terized it as great blunder. He said:
I" 1t is so framed that nine out of ten
will see on the face of it that it is mere
buneombe. 1t is based on allegations.
[ do not believe that any evidence OF
corruption would be found, and then
the Republican members Of the com
'mittee would have to sign report
with the Democrats, eXhonerating all
concerned, thus making the investiga-
tion farce Il boomerang. Mr.. Love
introduced the resolution without con
sulting the Republican side of the
House. If he had consulted the rest
of us he never would have offered the
resolution, at least not in that aWk-
ward shape. Ii was great mistake,
and of course will react"

The newspapers which are assault
ing Payne, of Ohio, are unanimous in
concedIng his integrity. If such be
his character, why is there all this
clamor as to his being the representa-
tive of corrupt monopoly? Of what
use would be an honest man to forward
the schemes of rascals? There is some.
thing very contradictory in the admis.
sion that he is thoroughly honest, and
the claim that he is to be Used as the
unscrupulous tool of an over. rown and
conscienceless monopoly. His integ-
rity has meyer been challenged there
is no one who dares to dispute it !; and
yet the entire administral ion press has
demanded his defeat for the asserted
reason that he will act as the suppli-
ant agent of the Standard Oil Com pa
ny. If il be the fact that the company
referred to is interested in his elections,
he is precisely the man to have the
senatorial place. His well known iu.
tegrity will prevent his beiHg used for
any illegal or other improper purposes.
He Will act as a bar to all the exactions
which the company might be disposed
To secure. He ewlll protect the interests
OF the people; in shart, ho il the pre-
else man best adapted to represent the
people.-[St. Paul Globe.

LAST Thursday'ni light Senator Payne
gave banquet at the Neil House in
Columbus, to the members of the Leg
islature, State Officers, Judges of the
supreme Court, members of the Su
preme Court Commission, and several
invited personal friends, which was a
magnificent affair. The newly elected
Senator made an able and eloquent
speech on the occasion, in which he
clearly and concisely defined his views
on the great questions at issue between
the two political parties, and showed
that he stands now where he has stood
for half century, on the side of the
Democracy, battling against monopoly
and special privilege, and giving as
surance that in him the people will
have a representative in the United
States Senate who will ever be faithful
to their interests.

The Junior Senator from New
York.
The KePuted Leader of the New

The Ixeputed Leader of the New
York Republicans.
Senator Warner Miller, known more
Familiarity as " Wood Pulp Miller" of
Herkimer, New York, was born in
Oswego county, that State. August Il,
1888, and is therefore in his forty sixth
year. He graduated at Unien College
in 1860, and then became a teacher in
the Fort Edward Collegiate Institute.
but when the war broke out, in 1861,
he enlisted as private in the Fifth
New York Cavalry. He served with
conspicuous bravery in the Sbenando-
ah Valley, being promoted to Sergeant
MGR and Lieutenant, AT the battle
of Winchester he was taken prisoner,
but was finally exchanged After the
close of the rebellion Mr.. Miller en-
gagged in farming and became the own
er of extensive paper mills, in which
enterprise he is still engaged. He was
a delegate to the National Republican
Convention in Philadelphia, in 1872,
anu III 1Oft was cl0CIcu W JH0 IN N6W
York Legislature, serving two terms.
Mr.. Miller then entered National
politics and was elected as represent.
ative to the Forty sixth Congress, and
was returned to the Forty-seventh. In
1881, when COnkling and Platt resign
ed their seats in the Senate, Mr. Miller
was chosen by the New York Assem-
bly, to succeed Thomas G. Platt, and
took his seat October 1lth, in the same
year. His term of office does not ex-
pire until the 3rd of March, 1887.
Senator Miller, by his recent manip-
ulation of the Republican caucus Of
the New York Legislature, securing
the election by the Lower House, of
Mr., Sheard as its Speaker, has won
for himself the sudden reputation as
being the leader of the New York Re-
publicaus, and the well known fact
that the Senator is antagonistic to the
present administration of Arthur gives
significance to his political controlling
power in his State as indicating that
lie will become prominent factor in
debating against Arthur's renomina.
ton at Chicago next June.
MIR. Miller is a man of splendid phys
ical and mental strength, and possesses
that personal magnetism which wins
the lasting friendship of those with
whom he comes in intimate contact.

can only be done by reducing taxes"
"What are some of the unjust dis
examinations OF the present tariff, Mr..
McMillin ~
why, sir, the more luXuriant and
non essential the article, the lower the
duty in most instances. To illustrate:
On cut diamonds the duty is only 10
per cent, while upon mechanics tools
and agricultural implements it is from
so to 80 per cent. Uncut diamonds are
free, but the raw materials entering
into articles of every day use are taxed
from 40 to 100 per cent. Fine laces
come i'll at'25 per cent, while the coarse
cotton goods used by the poor are sub
ject to from so to 100 per cent duty.
Silk velvet is dutied 25 per cent, but
an coarse woolen knit goods the poor
have to pay from 60 TO IS per cent.
The last Congress reduced the tax on
playing cards to 10 per cent, but left it
25 PER CENT ON BIBLES,
keeping an embargo on the Word of
God. So with hundreds of articles
could name. This Democratic Con-
gress will reform these things or be
sent to their homes and men returned
who will"
/ give Mr.. McMillin's views at length
because they are an able reflection of
Speaker Carlisle and his followers in
clinationn on the tariff question. On
the other hand, exSpeaker Randall
said to me yesterday in answer to a
question as to what course he and his
supporters would follow:
Il have been interrogated about that
hundred times in ten days past, aud
1 have paid little attention to the qu .s-
tions because these newspaper ceres
pondents report me incorrectly. Now
you may say for me explicitly, that 1
think the Democratic party will lose
five northern states this year if a re-
duction of the tariff is attempted this
session, and believing this, it must be
inferred that I, and all who coincide
with my view, will act accordingly.
That is all 1 have to say at present."
There are about 125 members in
Congress who will support Mr.. Nc
Milliu's views, while Mr. Randall's
position will not obtain over 80 Dem
ocratic adherents, though the 1l8 Re-
publicans will vote with the latter,
aud thus prevent the passage of any
reform bill.
