THE WAR CLAIM RAIDS ON THE
TREASURY,

Are arresting public attention by the
pending deadlock in the House ON the
direct tax bill This deadlock has now
lasted over a week and interferes with
other business, especially the tariff bill.
The Republicans manifest impatience
at the filibustering of the minority,
which stands between certain States
and their claim agents and the treasury,
and should explain why in the hey-day
and omnipotence of their power in
Congress they did not bring forward
and pass the bill. The direct tax was
laid in 1861, and was only collected for
one year, and only in part of that year,
They have slept oh their rights, if any
rights accrued for 20 years and more,
and it will not do for them to raise the
cry of "rebel' to excuse their own de.
fault. Why did they not pass the bill
when in control of the executive de-
partment and with overwhelming ma
joritles in both branches of Congress- =
The New York Herald declares "the
direct tax repayment bill is nothing
more than the entering wedge for
measures which will so deplete the
treasury that the protectionists may
have cause to cry out that no tax re-
ductions can be safely made. The tif-
teen million direct tax bill is the pilot
fish for that great fish, the cotton TAX
repayment bill, which calls for sixty
nine millions. The two, the shark and
the pilot fish, will take eighty -four mil
