TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1871.
CP The Evening Telegraph, from
its original establishment, has been in the
receipt of telegraphic news from the New
York Associated Press, which consists ol
the Tribune, Times, Herald, World,
Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex
Press. The success which has attended
our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi
dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia
bility of the news which we have received
from this source. Last March we entered
Into a special contract by which The
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive
use of the news furnished in the afternoon
by the Associated Press to its own members,
the North American, Inquirer, Ledger,
Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat,
of this city, and the leading journals of the
East, North, West and South; and hereafter
The Telegraph will be the only evening
paper published in this city in which the
afternoon despatches of the Associated
Press will appear.
W The earliest regular edition of The
Evening Telegbapix goes to press at 1
o'clock, and the subsequent regular editions
at 2 J, 3, and 4 J. Whenever there is im
portant news of the progress of the Euro
pean war, extra editions will be Issued after
this hoar, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
NEW YORK JUSTICE.
We publish on an inside page, devoted to the
reproduction of editorials of leading journals
upon current topicR, an article from the New
York Times, headed "Ought the press to be
silent?" which deserves a careful perusal. It
gives a picture of New York life, and of the
New York mode of stifling justice in the
Courts and in the Legislature, which may well
exoite national alarm, and prompt all other
American communities to adopt timely pre
cautions against the establishment among
them of such a supremely unjust aud in
famous system. It has long been suspeoted
that the New York bench contained corrupt
judges, but the Times assures us that thU
fact is so notorious that not a single lawyer
of eminence will venture to deny it, while
all prominent lawyers are familiar with
facts tending to prove thi terrible
charge, yet at the same time so cowed down
by the omnipotence of corruption as to
shrink from the task of publicly denouncing
the judicial offenders or from attempting to
drag the judicial ermine from the venal shoul
ders that habitually disgrace and dishonor it.
The appropriate legal remedy is the clamsy
machinery of impeachment; and when the
lawyers are asked to invoke it, they answer,
in the language of the Times, "that Twee J,
whose servants the corrupt judges are, aud
who controls the majority of the Legislature
' absolutely, would not permit it; that it would
be impossible to get the Assembly to aocuse,
or the Senate to convict, on any evidence
that could be submitted to them."
It is not an uncommon thing for some por
tions of a political organization to be rotten;
and in the present condition of American
polities rottenness is always perceptible in
some one or more quarters; but New York
alone, among American communities, has
sounded that profound abyss of corruption
which is never lightened by a faint
glimmer of justice and honesty, and
which involves in an indistinguishable
compound of rascality her lawyers,
judges, leading politicians, and legislators.
In the early stages of civilization the rule
prevails that all may take who have the power,
and all may keep who can. As civilization
progresses and Christianity exerts her benign
influence, justice and law gradually assert
tbeir supremacy; but it is reserved for New
York to pervert the forms of law to the prao
tical endorsement of a series of wrongs mora
infamous than any marauding chieftain or
robber outlaw ever dreamed of perpetrating
to convert her legislators, lawyers, leading
- politicians, ana judges into a consolidated
band of thieves, mutually sustaining, shield
ing, and assisting each other, as did the rob
ber bands of old, and recognizing Tweed
(who has gorged himself to repletion with
the spoils of political emolument) as a domi
nant chief whose behests demand implicit
obedience, when all regard for o filial oithi
and all sense of honor and duty have van
ished.
PLiladVpbia abounds with politicians who
would gladly emulate the career of Tweed
and Tweed's favorite retainers. Their great
object in life is to plunder the publii by a
perversion ef good laws or by the enactment
of bad law.. They regard with envy rather
than abhorrenoe the ascendancy of corruption
in the city of New York, and long for the day
when they, too, can enchain in thraldom to a
generation of corrupt partisan office-holders
and partisan leaders the entire population
of the city of Philadelphia. Already they
have, little by little, made some dangerous
M rides toward the attainment of their ulii
mate end; and if the people are not quiokly
Moused to a sense of their danger, the
clay is not disUnt when this proud city, too,
will be held in vassalage by exacting tyrants
not a whit more merciful or repntaMe than
those ho dominate New York. Heretofore
we have looked, iu critical momonts, for de
livtriinre from some of the worst of threat
ened dangers to our Courts, and fortunately
we have not looked in vain. But year after
year we t lect legislators who ate hopelessly
corrupt; we are growing comparatively care-
ess in the selection of Judges; we
install in important local ofllcos men
who are unworthy of publio
confidence; and if we take a few more down-
word steps, a fj stern as terrible that whioh
now prevails in New York mny be fastened
upon rts. The political organization of cities,
like the individual character of mankind, is
never at a stand-still: it is always growing
either better or worse. Ours is, in some im
portant respect s, deteriorating; and if it de
generates with accelerated paoe, it will soon
become as bad as that which holds New York
spell-bound under its miasmatio intlueuee.
THE INCOME TAX.
Si:ci:KTAttt IJoitweij. has entered his protest
against the abolition of the income tax, his
argument being that it will probably only
cost about $.".00, 00 to collect, whereas it will
yield about $ 12,000,000. The Secretary is
delightfully inde finite as to the cost of collec
tion, and says that it cannot be positively
ascertained. The Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, as our readers are aware, differs with
the Secretary materially on this point, and is
very strongly of the opinion that it costs as
much to collect the tax as it is worth. The
Secretary urges as an additional reason why
the tax should not be discontinued, that the
appropriations are based upon the estimates
of the revenue to be obtained under the
present system of taxation, and that
to cut off any source of supply
wou'd bo to create a danger of a deficiency.
If Mr. Bontwell finds his funds running low,
he can very easily cease reducing the publio
debt at the rate he has been doing, and there
will be very few to find fault with him. There
is no reason whatever that the present gene
ration should be obliged to sustain the whole
burden of the liquidation of the war debt, or
that it bhould submit to an oppressive and
inquisitorial tax for the purpose of allowing
Mr. Bontwell to carry out his pet scheme.
Looking at the matter from the standpoint of
the Secretary of the Treasury, the fact remains
that if Congress had at the last session intro
duced such reforms in our system of internal
revenue taxation as sound polioy and common
sense demanded, there would have been not
even the shadow of a pretext for
the continuance of the inoome tax;
and it will not be easy to con vino 3 any but
certain Western farmers and Southern
planter ) who have no cash incomes, that the
tax was continued for any real reason other
than to give employment to a horde of unne
cessary office-holders. How the expenses of
the Government are kept up verymuoh above
what is absolutely necessary we demonstrated
a few days ago, when referring to the con
solidation of the revenue districts of this city.
It was at first determined to consolidate the
four districts of Philadelphia into two, but
this did not suit the purposes of the assessors
and collectors and their attaches, and the
Second and Fourth districts were aooordingly
net consolidated, although together they do
much less business than the consolidated
First district. Now if the President were
to reduce the revenue distriots throughout
the country to one-half their present num
ber by consolidation, the cost of collecting
the revenue would be reduced one-half. Lot
Mr. Bontwell figure out what would be saved
to the treasury in this manner, and then
compare the amount with that which would
be lost by the abolition of the inoome tax,
and see what the deficiency in the treasury
will be. It is useless for the Secrotary of the
Treasury to plead for the continuance of a
tax that is now, as it always has been, an un
mitigated nuisance to all classes of citizens,
when there is a positive refusal on the part
of the administration to carry out
in good faith the polioy of economy
authorized by Congress when it passed the
law empowering the President to consolidate
revenue districts. How far Mr. Boutwell is
to blame in this matter we do not undertake
to say, but he represents the administration,
and it is certainly not creditable for the ad
ministration to bring all its influence to bear
to procure the continuance of an unpopular
and, under proper management, unnecessary
tax, when it fails to reduce the expenses of
the Government when it could do bo with
propriety and advantage.
Since writing the above a despatch has
been received announcing that the Ways and
Means Committee of the House has deter
mined to report the bill for the repeal of the
income tax. We hope sinoerely that the
House will pass the bill immediately, and that
the Senate will concur without further con
troversy, and thus put an end finally and for
ever to an unmitigated nuisance.
Ma. Smith yesterday introduced a
fine lot of bills in the State House
of Representatives, for widening Nice-
town lane, for repealing the act of 1870 rela
tive to qualifications of road jurors, authoris
ing the construction of pneumatio tubes under
the streets, squares, and avenues of Philadel
phia, with unlimited powers, for the laying
out a great avenue on the Wissakickon road,
and divers other schemes for filling the
pockets of certain contractors at the expense
of the tax-payers of Philadelphia. Why does
not Mr. Smith "go the whole hog," if we may
be allowed the expression, and introduoe a
bill for the transfer of all the real
and personal property of Philadelphia
to the possession of himself and
friends? This would be a muoh shorter and
easier method of growing rich than by engi-
neericg a series of petty pecnlative measures
that only gain for Mr. Smith the reputation
of being a commonplace sort of plunderer.
Why does he not attempt a grand coup that
will gain him some glory oven if he fail in
it ? As it is he will nover equal the Fitks,
the Tweeds, and the Sweeney of New York
unless he attempts something more inngmn
cent than he has yet done; and we therefore
anxiously await from Lim a grand effort that
will give nim a place in the temple or uaine
beside the superb scamps who rule New York.
THE ltepublican papers of the western part
of the State have spoken in terms of warm
commendation of Colonel David Stanton, of
Beaver, for the Republican nomination for
Auditor-General; and as the candidaoy is
generally conceded to the West, his suocess
is more than possible. He is a cousin of the
late great War Minister whose name he bears,
and has himself made an excellent war re
cord. He is spoken of as eminently qualified,
of spotless reputation, and as popular with
the Republicans of the Went.
OBITUARY.
Hon. Iirho K. Illter
This well-known Democratic politician and
successful lawyer died at his residence in Lan
caster jesterday morning of paralysis, from the
effects of which he bad been suffering since
January 23. Ho belonged to one of the oldest
families in the State, a family that has contri
buted half a dozen of its members to the ser
vice of the people in Congress, and lonsr. been
prominent in the political annals of the State
The father of the deceased was the Hon. WiV
Ham Hiester, who represented Lancaster county
in the National House of Represent it Ives from
1S31 to 1837, and at one time attained great
prominence as the active leader of tho Anti
Masonic party. Ills grand uncle, General
Daniel Hiester, was a member of the first four
Congresses from this State, and of the Seventh
and Eighth Congresses from Maryland, to
which State ho had removed.
Mr. Hiester was born in the villaero of New
Holland, Lancaster county, in May, 1331, and
waa therefore not quite forty-seven years of age
at the time of his death. After a careful pre
paration, he entered Yale College in 1333, and
graduated from that institution with high
honors. He entered the law office of Thomas
E. Franklin, Esq., of Lancaster, after gra'
duating, and was admitted to the bar In 1315,
soon attaining a lront rank and a high legal
reputation. In 1813, he was appointed Deputy
Attorney-General for Lancaster county, a posi
tion identical with the District Attorneyship of
the present day; and in 1853, when but twenty
ciirht years of age, was elected Repre
scnlatlve in uoneress. lne position as
sumed by him on tho slavery question
in the famous Kansas Nebraska debate
led to his defeat for re-election in 1851, and
again in 1856. In 18C3 he was a member of
the Democratic National Convention, and was
choEon to represent Pennsylvania on the Demo
cratic National Executive Committor. He was
frequently solicited, but invariably refused, to
become a candidate for the Supreme bench of
the State, and in 1869 was mentioned in connec
tion with the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor, but his name was not brought before the
convention by his friends. Of late years, Mr.
Hlcster's views had been of a liberal tendency,
and in lne national convention of isbj espe
cially he attained prominence by antagonizing
the rcstroactlve policy of the majority. By his
industry and ability he had attained a large and
lucrative practice at tho bar, and added mate
rially to the ample fortune which he had in
herlted.
The wife of Rev. O. D. Tavlor was recently
stricken, while in prayer meeting at Jackson,
Michigan, with paralysis of the brain, and died
in about an hour, thus f ulfllline her wish of the
evening before, that sue might die in a prayer
meenng.

two acres, covered with glass, and a network ot

ihe announcement ot a certain temperance
lecture in .Muskegon, ancuigan, was simply in
the words, "Muzzle that dog," which were posted
in large letters throughout the city, and some of
