lnnocr: Thero never was tho slightest
proof produced in support of this furious
and malicious charge, which was borrowod
from the shametesi columns of tho N. Y.
7Tmm, in which wa paraded pretended
bill of itcnu of Gov. Tilden's Incomo for the
year 1812. A complete, detailed, Incontro
vertible aniwer to this whole chargo by
Judgo Siunott of New York was given on
tho first page of the Columbian' Hi pt. 20tb.
In that answer it was shown that nearly
every item in tho Ttinca exhibit was false
and forged, uo such items of incomo lialng
evrr existed, and that tho items which had
any foundation in trutli were nearly all items
of incomo prior to tlio year 1SC2 and not
objects of taxation for that year under the
laws of tho U. S. Upon tho publication ot
Judgo Slnnott's answer to tho Timu, this
malicious slander, in the judgment of all
honorable men, sank among other despica
ble rubbish of the campaign and will bo re
ferred to hereafter only as Illustrating tho
desperation and malignity of tho enemies of
reform. Hut tho stupid absurdity or the
charge in tho llepublkan is manifest upon its
face. It charges Governor Tildeu with do
Iratiding tho Government out of the wholo
false incomo alleged by tho Timet forIS02,
instead of the mere tax upon it out of tho
wholo bogus mm of 100,000 instead of r
percent, thereon, which was the tax rate un
der the law. But the reckless authors of
this slander were just as near the truth in
stating the one amount as the other, as tho
whoh chargo was utterly destitute of truth
in any possible form. Nor is there any cvl
drnce that he paid an inadequato tax fur
subsequent years when a hostile assetser as
sessed his income at f 15,000 per year, the
tax on which was regularly paid and without
any question as to its s ulliciency until the
present canvass rendered slander a necessity
to tho Itadicul leaders. It is a notable cir
cumstance in tlii connection that theTrcas
ury Department at Washington utterly re
fuses to allow any ono to .-ee the income tax
returns of those wealthy men, Gov. Hajcs
and ex-Gov. Morgan, Republican candidates
for high cilice, although it furnished tho al
leged returns of Gov. Tilden for tho purpose
of campaigii detraction and the manufacture
of falsehood.

tmv trial of John Rantz at Harrisburg,mado
for and published In the Philadelphia In
quirer, dated October 25th, 186 1, and which
was wo believe, republished in tho Colum
bia i County llepublican, tho testimony of
Richard Stiles, a government witness, was
given as follows :
"Rantzsaid he had been to Ulnomsburg
that day, and lawyer Freeze had told him
IIli(ois had just seceded, and the Stato ol
New York was about to go out of the Un
ion. Rantz further said, that the Abolition
leaders had seven pockets and they never
wi.uhl bo satUtled until tlicy got tticni nil
full t'l money."
Another and independent report of the
testimony of tho same witness, substantially
the lama in language, will bo found lu tlit-
iblnmblun of July 30th, 1800. Comparin,
this accurate, contcniporaiicoiu report with

The people of Pennsylvania are well ac
quainted with his infamous system by which
they are deprived of their rightful represen
tation in Congress. It consists solely in so
grouping counties as to bring together a
umber having heavy Democratic votes and
giving them ono district while tho adjourn-
g districts are carried by comparatively
small Republican maioritic-.
The same rascally plan prevails in India
i. At the recent election the Democrats
had a majority on tho Congressional vote
of 7,000, and yet tho Republicans, by their
hauieful districting of tho State six years
ago, have gained tlnco Congressmen, in
the popular uprising of 187-1 tlio Democrats
elected eight Congressmen and the ltepub-
licans five, now tho figures seem to show
that tho Dcm.crats have lost what they
gained in that year in spite of the gerryman
dering. Since tho war the Democrats havo
elected a Secretary of Stato In 1802, 1870
and 1374, nnd a Governor in 1872. Had
tlio Stato been fairly districted tho Demo
crats would have gained, not lost, Congress
men.
