The Temperance Grab. Tho Tem
pornnco party held thoir Stato Con

nominated Dr. Robert A. Brown( of

Elijah K. Ponnypacker, of Chester
county, for Stale Treasurer, and adopt

Lookino to Impeaciimknt. The
St. Jjonis Timet declareB anew that
the Lone Branch cottngo was not a
present to Grant, but that he took the
$:!5,000 his ow lork menus gave
him for tho purposo and bought the
cottago and paid for it himself out of
tho gift money. This money was con.
tributod by seven persons, and ono of
them in return Boss Grant made Col
lector of tbnt port. Such in tho view
the Timet take of tho subject, and
perhaps tho tho next IIouso of Rep
rcsentntives may investigate the mat
ter.
Sock. Tho Kttehen Organ of the
President tells ns why bo nnd his Cab
inet declined to bo present at Bunker
Hill, when it npcaks of the bad taste
of publishing the expenses of Grant
and suite at the Concord affair. "Now,"
says tho organ, ''Massachusetts is mi-
Imppy because tho President and his
Cabinet decline an invitation to attend
the centennial of tho battle of Bunker
Hill, and agnin become advertised
cbnrity-lKiiirdcrs at the expense ot
Boston hospitality. We pity tbo taste
ot the descendants of the Pilgrim Pa-
tbcrs."
"A )oi ui.E IIeauer." As gamb
lers would say. Tho ring which has
robbed tbo taxpayers of tbo national
Capitol so hugely since Grant's advent
to power, is lull' illustrated in tbo
fact that the Administration organ at
Washington, the A'ntitmal Republican,
publishes tbo delinquent tax list which
covers 420 columns of that paper, at a
cost of $00,0(10 to tbo taxpayers. It
is said the profit on this job is about
J70.000, so that it socms to pay nicely
to advocate tho third term. If this
mode of doing business is not ol
doulilo-beadcd character, wo will con
fess that wo know nothing abont

Kaii.eii. Tho attempt of Taul

of nn nlleeod iwirriogo between him

Tho total population ot Louisiana in
1870 was less than 800,0(11), of whom
3B-(,000 were negroes, tbo most of tho
latter paying no taxes. In addition
to tho Suite debt, the city of New Or-
leans, which has also boon rnder tho
control of tho carpct-bairgorM, owes a
debt of 20,000.0(I0, with a popiilfttion
of less than 2lin.nnil. Whiln the debt
bos been increasing, the value of prop
erty both in tho city of Now )rlcnns,
and in the agricultural districts has
boen steadily depreciating, until upon
a largo portion ot the roal estuto the
tbo annual taxation is greater thun
the revenue derived therefrom. The
committee say of tho debt created
sinco 18C5 that the Stato has not been
benefitted in an amount exceeding
one-fourth of it; and that one-half tbo
taxes which have been collected sinco
that yoar have been squandered or
stolen. Tho public should not forgot
that when tho people of Louisiana
fairly elected a Government of their
own to supersede the carpet-baggers
who had so long plundered and op.
pressed them, President Grunt, at the
instigation of his brother-in-law and
other intruders, twico unlawfully used
tho Vnitcd States army to ovorthrow
tho legal government and install iu its
place usurpers who had been repudi
ated at tbo polls.
Whereas, This action of Councils
bus also shown that so long as the men
now in power lire permitted to control
tho Republican party, it is idlo to ask
for or to expect any improvement in
tho character of our public officials,
and nothing but the extreme measure
of an open and uncompromising con
test with thorn is left to tho true and
earnest members of tho party :
Hesiiioiil, Tlmt the Union League
accepts the issue thus forced upon it
self and all rcspectublo members of
tho Republican party, uud that it will,
iu pursuunce of its expressed purposu,
to endeavor lo obtain good nomina
tions, uud to support only thoroughly
nnohjcciionublo men, use its power
and influence against the election of
any candidates noiuinulcd by tho con
ventions about to bo held, who belong
to or identified wilh that dictatorial
baud of men, nominally of both par

THE MeKEAX COVXTY GRAB.
Tho llarrisburg Patri'4 says tho
Superintendent of Public Instruction
hns addressed a communication to tlio
school directors of McKcan county
asking them lo lake action looking to
tho reduction of the salary of super
intendent of schools in that county.
I to also intimates, in case tho school
diroctors shall fail to recommend a re
duction ot tho salary, uow fixed at
f2,000 per annum, that justice to oth
er counties will, he fenrs, compel him
to tuko the whole sum out of the Stuto
appropriation for MuKcan county,now
about 2,500 thus leaving to oe dis
tributed among tho school districts
about fjOO.
Now, If tho Stnto Superintendent
can se-saw in that way, wo hopo ho
will just add tho (200 taken off our
superintendent's salary, to the common
school fund of Clearfield county. That
would bo nico. However, that might
impair his decision in which ho says
that tho amount paid county superin
tendents does not come off the schools,
or, in other words, does not decreaso
tho State appropriation to tho schools.
We hold that the legislature sliould fix
tho salary of theso officers and there
by defeat both tho depletion and grub
games which nro played every threo
cam all over the State. o intend
lo show tip this grab business at length
at Borne future lime. Tbo department
should bo ashamed of tbo present
'shciiancgan" style of regulating su
perintendents' salaries.

Wo know nothing ot tho truth ol

to tell their story to a Congressional
