JANUARY «IB. 18T»
Jcdoi O'Bbibn, of Philadelphia, died
last night
«Jour Blackmhiim»*', ahowed up the
unreliability and duplicity of the îb'ery
Evening and Commercial yesterday In »
convincing communication in that
paper, iu which he took occasion to
speak a tieserving word of the «article of
"J. T. H." on silver remonetisation.
We hope every reader of the Gaxette
will peruse the extra*!* from the speeches,
of Senators Oockrell and Jones on the
silver question in another column. These
gentlemen come up to the standard of
Statesmen with pure arguments; and
prove conclusively that the financial
system established 1 by Hamilton and Jef
ferson and reaffirmed by Ja^ksop, Ben
ton and Van Buren— the double staudard
basis of gold ami silver—is not only the
safest and best; but the only one suited
to the extensive agricultural regions and,
the di
growing Republic.
Old Mr. Randolph, of New Jersey,
made a speech in the U. S. Senate on
Wednesday in favor of th«* gold-grabbers.
It was, as usual, an uphill business^ and
sounded for all the world, like theisffbrt
of anattorney beforeCourt when he knows
he has a had case,and does not get enough
pay. If the old fellow had told the truth
he might have been excused* However,
the Jersey Democracy will make short
work of him when they fully understand
this question and how he has talked upon
it. The difficulty has been that the
bondholders own or have bribed nearly all
the northern newspapers and the people
are misinformed, or kept in Ignorance of
the truth. _
An Utterance' Eloquent with
Trith.— In the Senate yesterday, the
Ohio Senator, who now deserves th<* sou
briquet given to John Quincy Admits In
the House more than any one else —the
old man eloquent—uttered a great truth
in a very few words; the single gold
standard men will find it out to their
regret because of the ignorance df
general finances. It is as follows :
Mr. Thurman said be had never iridul
any remarks as to who held the
government bo mis. IS o matter who held
them they had the right to be paid. He
argued that the remonetisation of silver
would place it side ,by side with gold in
less thtfn twenty-four hours, and no in
justice woukl lie done to any one.
of
K' 'i i
All the money centres are complain
ing of uu excess of loanable funds at ex
tremelylow rates.— Ledger.
That may be so ; and if it were not that
States rights were stricken down by
Radical legislation, now being made to
subserve sectional interests, the money
might stay in those centres. If it were
not for the ten per eent. tax on State
bank notfi^ hundred* of wealthy gentle
men wMffgd into the banking brodness
through charters from State legislatures
a solid gold and silver basis, and good
money would be had without looking to
money centre* in tlie great cities. Radical
legislation has put the people in the
dition of the Yankee who had traveled
iu Texas and declared that land was
low that he coqld have bought a large
farm for a "pair of l^optg."

tors that silver hail a Quality imparted to

that the constituents of Mr. Lamar have
a right to protect themselves from such
injury as results from misrepresentation,
and when a man deserts his people ami
their interests, as he proposes to do in
voting against tie remonetization of
silver, after they have formally Instruct

enter their protest and impose a sentence
of revocation, whether that be effective
or not. The Yankee Senators

Rove mu Coaunirtipner Raum, iu a re
ported convemadon, mention* one aspect
of the income tax question that I* worth
oouaideriug. Hie unconxdtutioiialltT, the
otliout* tlittcrimluotiou and the injuntlee of
tho tax are familiar to than« who have
« ■»«far ed from It, and 'were pointed ont
anew by us In a recent editorial. It is no
good excuse for reviving that detestable
inquisition to say that it would yield a
large and sure revenue to the Govern
ment. This is a plea which had g
mente often make for the Impose
URjust and unpopular taxes, bat it cannot
be made In behalf of the inoome tax, save
Commissioner Kaum. He is right. The
times have changed since this species of
tax was In successful force. The incomes
which then paid so handsomely to the
collector have shrank away, Host of
the men who were rich ten veam ago are
pope to-day. Probably not a third of the
revenue ooukl now I» derived from the
same income tax that
Money being less easily earned now than
then—and the future not very encour
aging—men would be more tempted to
limite false reports of Income returns.
TJiere would be more collusion with Fed
eral oflloers, more bribery and more
favoritism. It would be newssarv to in
crease the forer of assessors and collectors
In order to execute the law. This is an
objection to tlie tax which does not seem
to nave occurred to Commissioner Raum.
It Is an impurtiaiit one. Htnoe the aboli
tion of «Us tax In 1373, the revenue de
partment has been able to retrench great
ly. it has consolidated districts, dis
charged hundreds of men, ami saved a
C at «leal of money to the Treasury. All
costly machinery, of which we are
well rid, would be set in motion
aval » if the income tax were re-eatahlish
cil. Truly, aa the Commissioner decares,
"the game woukl not Is) worth the can
dle." Adding to these objections the
likelihood that the tax woukl be p
Bounce«! unconstitutional and void
ever «anted to the Supreme Court of the
United States, we have a chain of reason*
which should re-strain any prudent Con
gsess from votiig;an inoome tax. While
all husiuees is uusettlcd ami the future eo
dark, it would be foolish indeed to make
radical «X pertinents in financiering. Buch
would is, a serious reduction of the taxes
on whiskey and tohacoo—wbiuh are not
demand««! by any consuiners, and by
only a few of the producers and dealen —
and a reversion to the income tax in the
hope of making up a part of the loss from
the other sources of revenue. Thia would
be giving up a
very uncertain one in the bush—an ex
change which does not please Commis
sioner Kaum or any other man of sense.
