P02 THE DEMOCBATIO G02T GEESSMEN. ; Congress conveues in less than two weeks, and, although the Radical cle ment in that bo3y Is largely iu-'thc ascendency, yet the democratic mcui bers owa it to tlicir constituency and toihe country at large to urge the adoption of such measures as will best subserve the interests of the peo ple. While it is probable that but little can be accomplished in the way of reform in that corrupt body, yet our Democratic representatives should place the party upon the rec ord and show to the country ; the po sition which the National Democratic party assumes upon the vital ques tions of the day. , . ' Just before the adjournment of the last Congress this subject "was urged upon the Democratic members, but the multifarious measures then pond ing so entirely absorbed the attention of that body that it was found impos sible to accomplish the desired ob ject. The Democrats of the country again ask that this thing shall be done and done quickly. Immediately af ter the preliminary exercises of open ing that bodv hhall have been dis- penscd with, let some Democrat in troduce a series of resolutions declar ing that it is the duty of Congress: 1. To provide for the immediate reduction of direct taxation and of import duties to a strictly reveaue standard. 2. To provide for the immediate re duction of public expenditures in all the departments of the Government. 3. To abolish all sinecure offices aud the system of collecting the reve nue bv secret mlormers and spies. 4. To restore to the people of the States and their local jrovernnn the rights originally possessed by them uuder the Constitution. , 5. To abolish governmental paper money and restore the only constitu tional currency gold ana silver. C. To reduce the army to a peace footing, and abolish a system recently established of employing military officers in the discharge of civil duties. 7. To provide against the accumu lation and retention of large sums of money in the public treasury, by which the interests of the people are subor dinate to novernnient influence aud made dependent upon the caprice ami personal views of the head of that de partment. .. ' 8. To prevent the purchase and sale of the public credit by the Secre tary of the Treasury at his own op tion, with no other control than his individual and personal will. 9. To bring the President and his Cahinet advisers under the authority ., k provisions and alike with others f 1 1- .1 1 1 Z . . 1 ject to its penalties. ! 10. To restore to the Southern States and people peace, prosperity and contentment, which can only be accomplished by a cessation of vin dicative legislation and military inter ference and a recosrmtion of their equal right, including self-government and political equality with the other States and people of the Union. 11. To revive American commerce. 12. To restore American credit. - 13. To inagnrate American repub lican simplicity in the adminstration of public affairs, and, - 4 14. To aid, by proper legal and constitutional authority, iu the full de- j veloment ot the agricultural, mineral a id sommercial resources of the conn try. . Democrats demand that this shall be done. They want no "passive policy" on the part of their Demo cratic representatives. They - want the Radicals either driven to adopt measures of reform or shown to the world in their . true colors as public plunderers, official robbers, and op pressors of the people. Let them either come down to the work of re formation and purification or be branded as recreant . to , their profes sions of honesty, and as traitors to their official trust.. Make them re form or render them odious. TEE KU-XLUX ETJMETJGGEEY. The telegraph tells ns that last Thursday six "Ku-Kluxers'1 were . ar rested - in ! North Carolina, charged with every crime known to the cata logue. It is more than probable that these men are members of a band t of New York thieves and cut-throats who j recently went down there to practice their hellish villanies under cover of the Ku-KIui humbug. And yet the Southern people are made re sponsible tor, these crimes and all through the South at ' this time hun dreds, yea thousands, of respectable citizens are dragged from their homes and taken hundreds of miles to the State Capital, there to answer before United States Courts and packed' ju ries of; carpet-baggers and negroes, to trumped np charges of private and political melevolence against them by the adherents f the party in power, Our Southern exchanges , are full of incidents illustrating the brutality of the proceedings.. Since the days of Judge Jeffreys, nothing like this in at rocity has been witnessed. - - Another Loyajl: Radical. Col- Gibson,' who was elected State Treas nrer of' Ohio in 1865,; and swindled Ihe State out of a million of -dollars, came home from ' Europe, during the v.. recent canvass ; and stumped 'the State ia the interest of the Radical party, s His friends received him cor dially, and never thonght of rascality . and frauds. Jig 'juj ;4dubt' took 'es; pecial paiBso denounce the Tammany "lJiB'gr forgetting that herffoaid-' make a first-rate member of th'aV jorganiza tion. ' '' THE RADICAL fcHAEISEES. The Concord, (N.H.) .People, ' one of those staunch Democratic papers of the "Old Granate State," says that the Radical newspapers nro apparent ly insane with delight over the arrest ot Mr. Tweed, aud in the excess of their joy they take no pains to conceal the motives by which they are inspir ed The do not rejoice that a crimi nal is likely to bo brought to justice, that it public robber is to be compell ed to disgorge a portion of his ill got ten plunder nothing of the kind. They rejoice, rather, that the leader of Tammany is disgraced, that a heretofore prominent Democrat is pro ceeded against for official robbery. t They are not pleased at the prospect of: putting an end to the operations of dishonest officials, but rather that Dem ocratic officials have been dishonest, and that their dishonesty has been made known. They rejoice in the ex istence of corruption and dishonesty in fact, so that Democrats shall , be made to baro the blame. And that is the full measure of all this anxious solicitude of the Radicals, for public weal! '.' ' !: ' " '..',' The Democracy everywhere desire the prosecution and punishment of thieves and robbers, whether official or otherwise, and not because thev arc Radicals or Democrats, but be cause they are thieves and robbers, For this reason the Democrats of Xew York, are moving against the Tam many leaders, (for they are Democrats chiefly, who are moving earnestly in this matter, though the Radical papers carefully avoid stating this fact,) and while they are thus moving, the (x of- jyfeo head of the Radical party persist in keeping a branded windier at the head of the JW? York Custom House, and through him controls the man agement of the party machinery in the State! With this fact staring the people in the face, with what grace can the Radicals continue their outcry against the Tammany Democracy? 'We have no word of aology to offer for any Democrat who defrauds the people. When he does that, he ceases to be a Democrat, and becomes a thief. If the leaders of Tammany have stolen their millions from the city treasury, they should be made to disgorge the Jast dollar, and should be j punisned as criminal into the bargain. J but wlule we would see impartial jus-; tice dealt out to them, we would see . thieves ana corruptions eiseu here j punished. While the men who have j misappropriated millions of dollars in ; the city ot s evr 1 ork arc being call- j Portland Los a new sausago facto ed to an account, we wish to see those ! ry and the dogs are all stampeding who liave misappropriated A undreds j , of milUons from the I ederal treasury sub-!,,... r ' I l .. i. . - - mi i aiaw ur"uS'-lo juswee. i nea-nouiiu- ; ing fact stands out betore the people of this country, upon the authority ofj the becretary of the Treasury him-1 self, that since the close of the late j war, the Federal Government has j drawn from the people by taxation ! the immense sum of 54,00,U0J,ot;0 j almost Jice billion dollars ! Enough, and more than enough to have wiped out the entire national debt, besides j paying every cent of the legitimate expenditures of the government ; and yet the debt remains, and the outrag eous burden of taxation continues, that a Radical President may indulge in the luxury of a mahogany barn, a la Tweed, and thousands of corrupt officials and swindling contractors, all over the land, may continue to pile up immense fortunes at the expense of an oppressed people- Great is Radicalism, and great is the virtue of the Radical party. ' DESPOTISM nr THE SOUTH. A gentleman of this city has just received a letter irom his brother ivho is a resident of Lancaster county, in the northern part of Sonth Carolina the district which is now under Mar tial law from which we are permitted to make the following extract : . "Our political condition in the upper part of this State is simply terrible. There are nine counties (Lancaster in cluded), under Martial law. Grant has sent his soldiers here for the pur pose of arresting and punishing the Ku-Klux; but the truth is these nine counties are known to have Demo cratic majorities, and his object is to send enough of these Democratic vo ters to the Penitentiary from each county to give the Radical carpet-bag gers the majority. This is, or will be the programme in nearly all the South ern States, but are there not enough honest men in his ' own party to de nounce such villanous frauds npon his part and defeat his election ' to the high office which he is now prostitut ing to snch base uses?'' ; , t Radical Thievery, Admitted. The Oregonian virtually admits that it believes from $5,000 to $7,000 of the five' per cent, proceeds of the sale of public lands, that accrued, during the i Wood's administration, were stolen by ; that precious pair 1 of vil lains now comprising the majority of the Utah Gang" Woods and,' May; and that paper ; is terribly ,' exercised with fear about the consequences to its party in the coming State election, should this villainous transaction be looked into by the proper authorities. The. Oregonian may rest assured that the matter will be thoroughly investi gated ind that the people of Oregon shall' have the facts before them at as early a: day as possible. . . ., ? Rev.
