Attorney General Palmer has issusd
executions against the cities of l.oek
Haven and Altoona, and the borough of
ftunbury, for unpaid state taxes. The
claims against the above named cities
and borough, it is alleged, have been in
the hands of the attorney general for
nearly a year, and the erocnliona ha>e
been repeatedly delayed on the promise
of the authorities to have them settled.
The condition of the state treasury is
such at present that it has been decid
ed to press the payment of these claims
at once.

Hayes has vetoed the army appropri
ation bill upca grounds which make him
guilty of glaring inconsistency with his
own record in congress. But we looked
for nothing better from one who is the
greatest fraud since Adam was bom. To
veto a bill because it has a rider upon it
would do well enough for a president
who never voted for bills with riders.
This the fraudulent president himself
did frequently and upon important bills
when he was a member of congress, and
that one of his main reasons now for
vetoing the army bill is because it has a
rider, is simply ridiculous.
Wholesale arrests in Russia seem to
be the order of the day. and a military
despotiam ia fast being established. e
judge the excuse for it all is that the
Nihilists are plotting trouble as well as
assassination of the rulers.
The St. Petersburg correspondent of
the Unirers ears: "The police are
openly arresting people at ail hours of.
the day, whereas arrests were hitlfcrto
made at night. On the slightest suspi
cion against any person, his whole
family are arrested and domiciliarv vis
its are paid to all their acquaintancea.
these leading to further apprehensions
on the most frivolous grounds. Eighty
three furnished lodging-keepers are in
prison for not reporting, within twenty
four hours, the latest arrivals. M.
Jakovleff, a Government officer, living
in the Winter Palace, and his son, an
officer in the Guards, areamongthe per
sons in custody. Baron Bistrom, Depu
ty Commandant of the St. Petersburg
Garrison, and Gen. Gildenstube, Com
mandant of the Moscow Garrison, have
been superseded for insufficient enthusi
asm toward the new order of things.
There are few pedestrians or carriages
in the streets, but an endless line of
porters are seated on stools at every
door with stout sticks. Covered prison
vans frequently pass, with a police offi
cer mounted k aside the driver, and Gen.
Gourko drivea around in an open drosky
escorted by Cossacks cracking their
whips. The iehabitaets are not accom
plices of the Nihilists, but pathetic
spectators."
The long and short of Haves veto is
that his party can not get along without
having bayonets at the polls.
Let the democrats in congress stand
firm and not yield until this feature of
military despotism is stricken from our
laws. .
Hayes owes his fraudulent position to
bayonet rule, in the tare of 300,000 ma
jority of the popular vote against him.
Read the Declaration of Independ
ence and there you fiad one of the
charges against George the Third, that
he quartered soldiers among us in times
of peace.
The democrats carried on this govern
ment 40 years without ever having a
soldier at the polls, and we say no more
appropriation for the army until there
is a guarantee that the bayonet shall
not be stationed at the polls te intimi
date democrats and carry the elections
for the republicans.
The democrats rely upon the ballot —
the Hayes' veto means that the republi
cans are depend upon the bayonet.

PROI'RJA TIOS nil I
On 2\> inst., Mr. Hayes returned the
army bill to the house accompanying it
it with a lengthy statement of bis rea
sons for refusing i sign the bill. No
action was taken on the veto in the
souse on account of the announcement
of the death of Representative Kuah
Clark, of lowa. Mr. Hayes takes the
ground that under existing laws there
can be no military interference in elec
tions and that therefore there is no ne
cessity for the political legislation on the
artnv bill. But the question naturally
-uggests itself, if the proposed political
legislation is mere surplusage and ac
complishes nothing beyond what is al
ready fixed in the law, why should the
executive veto be interposed 7 Mr.
Hayes also objects to the bill that its ef
fect would be to prohibit all the civil
'dicers of the United States from em
ploying any adequate civil force to keep
the peace and preserve order at federal
elections. He insists that interference
ti congressional elections by the civil
authority of the federal government is
necessary to insure free and honest elec
tions. It is but the customary plea of
those who favor a centralized govern
ment and distrust the ability of the peo
ple to hold their elections and govern
themselves. This point iti the veto is a
clear and unmistakable intimation that
Hayes will veto the legislative appro
priation bill on the ground that federal
supervisors and deputy marshals are ne
cessarv to a pure and peaceful ballot.
He is evidently enamored of the work
performed by Marshal Kerns' pet
lambs. Redding, Slav in and Brown, the
"Twenty-timer." Mr. Hayes also thinks
that the attempt to repeal a law by in
serting the repeal in an appropriation
bill is calculated to deprive the execu
tive of bis "qualified negative'' and
would establish a "radical, dangerous
and unconstitutional change in the char
acter of our institutions " He did not
think so when as a member of congress
he voted for political riders on appro
priation bills. He then concludes his
message by answering that congress
means to coerce him into siguing the
bill by withholding the appropriations
necessary to carry on the government.
He must know, if he watched the de
bates in congress, that those who spoke
for the majority specifically disclaimed
aay intention to coerce the executive
It d ies mot seem to occur to him that he
is undertaking to coerce congress by
saying. "You shall not repeal certain
laws in the manner in which yon have
chosen to do it, nor indeed shall you re
peal those certain laws at all in any
manner." But since he will have coer
cion probably he may get it
The petroleum war is still ablaze, and
has led to the indictment of the more
prominent members of the Standard Oil
Company. A telegram from Pittsburg,
of 29 nit., says the fight of the oil pro
ducers against the Standard Otl Compa- !
ny has taken a new shape to-day. Civil
suits against the corporations forming
the company are now pending before a
master appointed by the Supreme Court
and on last Saturday an information was
made before a magistrate of the town of
Clarion, Clarion county charged the fol
lowing named defendants with criminal
conspiracy, via.: —John P. Rockafeller,
William Rockafeller, Jabez A.ltostwick,
Daniel O'Day, W. G. Warden, Charles
Lockbart, Henry M. Flagler, Jacob J.
Vandergrift, Charles Pratt and George
W.Girty. The information charges the
defendants with fraudulently conspiring
to cheat and defraud the public and the
oil producers by creating a monopoly of
of tbo oil trade, to prevent lawful and
legitimate competition in the purchase
of crude petroleum. It also charges
conspiracy and concerted action to
squeeze out of a lawful business all who
are not interested with themselves ; and
it also charges that by usiog railroads
foreign to the State—the New York Cen
tral and New York Erie—as tools they
have compelled the Pennsylvania and
Allegheny Valley railroads to carry
their oil at ruinous rates, under a threat
of taking away all trade that otherwise
would naturally flow to these lines. Of
course this is a mere outline of the
• barges of the information, the points
being elaborated with illustrations and
facts and backed up by such evidence
that has already been obtained in the
bill in equity and suits before the Su
preme Court.
!XDICTMESTB FOCND.
Warrants were issued,and the consta
bles have returned the defendants as not
to be found in the country, the informa
tion was sent at once to the Grand Jury.
A number of witnesses were subpoenaed
and were examined before the jury this
morning. Messrs. Wilson and Jenks
and ex Senator Corbett appeared for the
Commonwealth. This a'ternoon true
bills were found against the defendants
and bench warrants will at once be is
sued for their arrest. The information
was made bv Mr. It. B. Campbell, Presi
dent of the Oil Producers' Union.
AO MORE PA I'.
There was considerable squealing iu
the House on account of the refusal of
the State Treasurer to pay the balance
of the members' salaries They have,
all of them, received $7.50 on account,
and the Treasurer thiuka that the
schools have been behind for over a
year and the other Suite institutions re
fused, that the jolly Jaw maker should
take a little of that medicine, too, in or
der to bring them to a realizing sense of
the presewt condition of the State finan
ces. The outside clamor bus forced this
state of affairs. Complaints have gone
in from all quarters about paying mem
bers in advance, and leaving the schools
behind. There has been paid out s2llO,
000 on accouut of the salaries and ex
penses of the present Legislature, and
its expenses will run up close to ti aI fa
million dollars if they set out the 150
days. Nothing has happened this ses
sion which has served half so well to
waken them up to the situation as this
I stoppage of their own pay. Some want
[ a little money to pay their tuxes; some
to use at home on other matters; others
1 guess to buy poker-chips—as the wants
of a member of the Legislature are very
multifarous. Well they cannot draw
more money till the end of the ses
aio'n, and not then unless they riir some
law by which a little money will find its
way in there. The members generally
agree that the gctfo? of the Treasurer is
right, tyit mighty inconysaient.
PKMOCRATI* Cirri s
The house caucus at Washington on
Saturday was harmonious.
Mr. Chalmers, of the joint caucus com
mittee, submitted three drafts of hills to
prevent the interference of the military
with elections, one drawn by the coin
aiittee, one by Senator Ttiuramn and mi
other by Senator Katon. The object of
the hills seemed to be to meet the qm s
tion of military interference with elec
tions fairly and sqtiatrly to leave out
all that could be construed into any In
terference with civil otlicersor the pro
cesses of federal courts, and to make a
square issue in regard to tbo use of
troops to control elections. After some
debate the Thurman bill was adopted
as the best. To it was added the pream
ble of the liou-e committee's bill, which
is in words and terms similar to the
preamble of the 1 uglisb statute < ti 'his
subject and this was adopted Mr 1 add.
of Maine, was authorized to present the
bill on Monday The caucus then up
pointed a committee on pairs, consisting
of one member from each state and
then adjottraed.
This new bill to be presented in the
place of the sixth section, which ha
caused so much trouble, will provide
that sections ",ts j and ",o< of the mis
ed statutes shall not be construed to
authorize the presence of troop- at the
(Hills except under orders of the Presi
dent to rejiel ariued enemies of the
United States, or iti pursuance of the
constitutional requirements, upon ap
plication of the legi-laturo or governor,
to repress domestic violence. Nothing
else will be done upon the other (>•>•
lilical questions at issue until this one
i* settled.
SHARP PO!.\T\
The - makes some very sharp
(Hiints, which the white house fraud
should have had in his veto message. It
says that between July *> IS'>-, and
March t. 1.-71, the Republicans, win
had complete control of tiie benate anil
the House of Representatives,engrafted
no less than three hundred and eighty
seven acta of general legislation on ap
propriatiou bills, <>r nearly thirty every
year for thirteen consecutive years.
Among the most notable example of
this species of legislation was one in
is ifi, when the appropriation for three
millions to carry on the war with Mexi
Co was pending, l'avid Wiluiol moved
his celebrated proviso, that no p.irt of
that money should be used for the ac
quisition of territory where slavery
should exist. The House . - IVnio
cratic, with John W Havisof Indiana as
!-|>eaker. Mr. I' hl:u of N r'.h Car. -
lira, afterward .-ccrelary of the Navy,
made a (>oint of order on the amend
ment, which was overruled by tho( Lair
man, and upon an appeal from 1 is deci
sion the Chair was sustained by a voti
of nearly three to one. The Hou-e as
serted the principle that upon a money
bill an amendment, though not ostensi
bly germane, could be attached, lit-ati-i
it prescribed a condition for u-ing the
money. According to the po-itiun of
Haves, the Wilmot proviso was "rvvo
lutionarv.
In lsioti John Sherman, then a mem
ber of the House, moved no a amend
ment to the Army Appropriation bill to
the effect "that no part of the military
force of the United Slates herein pro
vided for shall be employed in aid oftbt
enforcement of the enactments of the
alleged Legislative Assembly oftbeTer
ritory of Kansas, recently assembled at
hhawr.ee Mission, until Congress si.a.
have erlt> ted either that it was or w..-
cot a valid Legislative Assembly." A
Republican member, Mr. 1 e;ter of Ohio
was in the chair, and ruled against the
amendmeut when the point of order
was raised, but the House sustained ar
appeal against his decision. This case
precisely parallel with that of the bill
which Hayes has now vetoed by Slier
man's advice.
In 1867, when the Republicans were
striving to break down the j<ower of the
Executive, they tacked on an amend
ment to an appropriation bill, designed
to deprive President Johnson of this
constitutional authority as ('> nmander
in-Chief, by requiring him to send his
orders to the army in a method dictated
by his political and personal enemies.
Hayes was then an obscure member of
the House, and he Toted for this
amendment, like the rest of his par
tv.
In 1573 a Republican Congress at
tached the salary gsah and back-pay
steal to the Legislative Appropriation
bill, by which the salary of Grant, who
had been re elected the previous fail,
and who signed the bill, was doubled,
and I heir own salary was largely in
creased, with a retroactive clause that
put thousands in their pockets.
These are all familiar instances, and
they show that when the Fraudulent
President says in bis mes-nge "the en
actment of this bill into a law will es
tablish a precedent which will tend to
destroy the independence of the several
branches of the Government," he writes
what is not so.
[Journal ofCommerce (Dcm. , April 30.J
The President condemns the measure
because "it is now proposed to deny to
the United Mates even the necessary
civil authority to protect the national
elections." Pray who proposes to deny
tins to the United States? Is the Presi
dent of the United States ? The Con
stitution confers upou Congress the
right to make certain regulations con
cerning the election of its members
The two houses have pHssed a bill de
signed, as they believe, to prevent any
undue interference of the military at
such elections. This action is most cer
tainly within their province. It is not
a deuiul to the United Mates of the
rights conferred by the Constitution,
but on the contrary it is the "exercise"
by the Congress oi the United Staitf
with whom the power is lodged ol the
very rights in question. The two houses
of Congress certainly represent "the
United Mates" as much at least as the
President, and w hen they deny to the
army the right to Interfere at the polls
they deny nothing to the United States.
It is the people of the United Mates by
thsir representatives in Congress assem
bled who insist that "the right of cili
zensofthe United States to vote shall
not be denied or abridged" by the dis
play of un armed force at the polls for
partisan purposes. If there is no ground
lor their apprehension, no harm is done
by rendering such a menace illegal, and
thus securing to all a lull and free exer
cise of Ihe elective franchise. But the
pretense that because the President is
ol one political parly and the majority
in Congress are of another he is the
United Mates, and they by the exercise
of their legitimate powers are denying
something to the United Slates, isainost
offensive arid unwarrantable assump
tion that ought not to pass without se
vere rebuke.
l'eiu is enthusiastic abuut her war with
Chili, and her people are giving all
po-tiblv support to the government iu men
money and material. It is probable,
therefore, that we shall see tlif-so .South
American republics involved in a pro
longed rind fratricidal war, out of which
they will come wi-er and poorer fcr tlio
experience.
