The Democratic Watchman, WEI I. EFON TE, J.A. FRIDAY MORNING, NOV. 21, 1868 Infamous Work—Six Htindred Quail fled Voters' Disfranchised in Platte County, Missouri. Never in our career as a joutbalist or as std observer of public Oohs have we beep paUpd upon to chronicle or have we witnessed such a monstrous villainy as was perpetrated by the Board of Re view lest Friday night. Barbra it pales all other atrocities enacted by the hired tools of the party, and it attains an em ballot in baseness alutost s beyond con ception or belief. These lines are not written for Ilia information of the 'cal tans of Platte County, ibr they were pre sent In large numbers and witnessed it all, but that the outside world may know to what desperate expedients the mon grels, through their hired instruments, resort to carry the election and hold on to the spoils of office. We will recur briefly to events preceedtug the session of the Board of Review. For several days previous to the 17th —the fret day of the sitting of the Board —it was evident to all well-informed persons that the comparatively fair reg tstration just concluded would be set aside by the Board of Bedew Two members' of this Board were closeted con tinally with Hood, Miles, Quinn, Beller, Whitely, George S. Barks, Jordan Zit Co., at Weston A conspiracy was be tug hatched whereby, through perjury aped - wholesa le iidraiiihii . 4emeni, one thousand'names, already registered as qualified voters, were lobe stricken from the lists that Hood might be made Stier iff and George S Parks Stale 'Senator tecordingly about eight hundred names were posted up in the County Clerk's office as "objected to " These names included the most worthy, law-abiding citizens of the county The lists for several townships included a majority of the 'registered •oters. In Marshall Township, of the three hundred regis tered voters, two hundred and fifty-three were objected to We will not now attempt to give a his tory of the Board, merely remarking that Melva ao‘l Guenther hail their car pet hags stuffed with the salidavuo of perjured partisans, hired to klu the dirty work, as Brown and l;oenther were bribed to rec., ire them It ref - Were , ' lit tie whether the "ohjecteoPlo' ruler pro duced ineuutr•ertible proof of ills loy alty or proves the atliant a common liar and thief, the ;•ohjeettuns were sus tained, though in many ithtinee, the affidavits alleged no o'..teett Amble worth MEM It was' plain 1 every — mie thilt the 1/per I of I:reitli 411 toil design nor L o pe to in., .10 one third or the ~b rated to Thar offoiro p. ogre.ueil un Feithly niortilne, whei 111itter Whitely, wtv, exCi ii 111 00 FL member of tie liunrd In rite.

But this will not an swer. There is admething more to be said in this matter, and the people will listen to it., if these quibblers will not, When we claim equality of taxation, we mean taxation generally., and not a single tax There are many forms and objects of taxation. The income tax is but one of the many. It is one source of Federal revenue, and that is all. But there are State taxes, county taxes, town taxes, school taxes, highway tax es, city taxes, and village taxes. These are all assessed upon property•capit•l. While the owners o every species of capital pay the tax upon the income de rived from it and from the business that they do with it, the Federal bondholder included, this is the only tax that the latter does pay Ile pays no tax upon the capital invented in bonds, hut only the income tax upon the interest, as °thorn de upon the divtl'enrts - We inter est of their investments, or the profits of their business. But the property of ev ery other individual, except the Federal bondholder, is assessed at what is deem ed its value, and one tax after another is imposed upon that valuation, and has to be paid. ' First comes the Stale tax, then the county tax, then the town tax, then the school tax, then the highway tax, and, in addition, to those who live in a city or incorporated village, the municipal tax The people who pay these taxes also pay the fe feral income tax, in common with the ii iii lli i I 'I. . but be pays none of these lases in ',ru mor" with them.
