‘GENERAL U. 8. GRANT.
tSabjcct to the decision of thé National R:publitah Convention.
}
The Railroad Taxes.
Thé Central Pacific Railroad ComCourt of the United States in the tax .
case recently decided against ‘the .
‘Company in the Supreme Court. of /
this State. Thbe-ground of appeal is .
that the property of the Company is
exempt, because it is a postal and
military road $f the Government:-—
.& Co. claimed everything in reach,
but we had no idea that the grasping
ex-Gb¥ernor would ¢laim te be.the
-original Uncle Sam.
M-the Supreme-Court of the United States should decide that the railroad is, Natzonal preperty, and that
therefore the State cannot tax it, the
_people will demand that the Govern-.
ment take itfrom Stanford & Co.,and
run it for the benefit of the people.
Thé meanness of this Compuny is . co
manifest by their efforts to escape
‘their just share of taxation. In order to do so, they are willing to awear
that they do not own the road, and
‘that it is Government property. We
do not believe that they have any faith
in the 3 raised on appeal, but
the ly desire by delay, and put_Aing the taxpayers to as much ex"pense as possible; to prevent a just
‘taxation of their property this year,
asthey have suceeeded in doing here*
{ofore. The game won’t win. The
people will demand that Stanford &
“Co. beat their full share of the burdens imposed by taxation. No dodging or denial of oWnership in the
road will do. The Railrodd Company must be made te’come to time.
“Any Thing to Beat Grant.
Mr. Beck, one of the Democrutic
leaders in the House of Representatives, lately made one of the charges:
against the honesty of the Administration which are now the chief cry
‘of the alliance against the Republivan-party._Mr. Beck's eliarge is a
good illustration of the kind of warfere that is waged upon the President. It was as follows:
“During the last fiscal year, in:
detiance of that law [uct of July 12,
1870], the War Departmént, as is
shown by the report of the Secretary
of the Treasury, expended $8,000,000
in excess of the appropriations, ‘and
seld arms to the French to make
good the deficiency; and the proceeds
of those arms are new deposited in
the ‘Treasury to the credit of that
Department, subject to be drawn out
by 1t.””
The Secretary of War, in a letter
Beck isin error at all points, and
proceeds in the tersest aud most conelusive ' mafifiet fo prove it. The
War Department did not expend any
sums in excess of appropriation; it
did not sell arms to make good the
deficiency; the money to ‘the credit
of erdpanee stores could not be used
to make it good; the:proceeds of the
sales mentioned are notin the Treasury to the credit of the War Depart
ment, nor subject to ita order. The
fHecretary leaves little of Mr. Beck.
Mr. Fernando Wood made-an at-.
tack ef the usual kind upon General
Dyer, Chief of the Ordnance Department,to which the General replied in .
a letter so conclusive that Mr, Nook
retracted his charges.
It is by the inebidhyit-Feteration
of such charges that’ the campaign is
conducted.of any thing andany body
tu Grant.

would not be increased, he demanded . as
After he had eonthe floor, which was granted him by
Schurz as a matter of courtesy, and
contrary to the rules, in the confidence that. he would not abuse the
ptitilége thus accorded ‘iim, ‘and
only announce his _-withdrawal. —Instead of thishe occupied with his
withdrawal a eulogy of Horace Gree+
ley, and called upon his friends_and
the delegates generally to vote for
him. @ ‘object of this unheard of
ict was two-fold—first, to fatally
tab Carl Schurz, and, secondly to
secure himself the support of the
Greeley men; thus securing his’ poh:
ination for tne Vice Presidency. The
dastardly plan succeeded most comipletely; because but few of the delegates besides Greeley’s frietidshad
any idea of what was sesiepest and
in progress.”’
The same paper says: “Neither
Greeley nor Grant can receive the
support of the German Americas,
that is beyond all doubt. The undeserved abuse of Carl Schurz, which
he received at the hands of Greeley
and Brown men and the political
traders, has produced an indignation
that will make itself felt in the coming election campaign. The opinion
is general that Greeley will ttiuthph
over Grant in the Philadelphia Convention by the sdthe’ means that he
did here, or else withdraw in Grant’s
faver.”
There are many Liberals who went
into the convention as Republicans,
and who came out firmly resolved to
cut loose from that party. Greeley,
the enthusiast, who flies from one
extreme to the other; the temperance
fanatic and preposterous moral
preacher, the unreliable politician,
»is, notwithstanding his acknowledged»
personal honesty, not by any meas
the ihan te fill the’ Presidency of the
Unitéd States in these days of storms
and danger. This is evident to all
to whom it imports much more than
the old slime should be cleansed
from our politics, than that the system of protection and the interests of
the monopolists should he more thoroughly grounded by his election.
But what is still more worthy of,consideration is the recklessness and the
shamelesshess, in regard tothe new.
movement itself, of the manner in
which his nomination was effected.
Throughouttlie whole West thd Greeley ticket. will be repudiated with
scorn and indignation.
