» V ■I X I Taxation or Repudiation. EXHIBIT Correspondence. F RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES OF Jackson county, Oregon, for the year ending July 9th, 1870. SCHUYLER COLFAX, O All the old issues between the Republicans and Dfinocrats are being, one by one, swept away, and now iu order to save themselves from certain defeat at the next Presidential election, the Republicans are resorting to the advocacy of the very measures which they denounced as treason on the part of the Dem ocracy six years ago. A few days since, in the Hnase of Representatives, both Aron A. Sargent and Thomas Fitch, representing res pectively the States of California and Nevada, voted for the taxation of United States bonds. Upon being questioned about it, W. Fiicn said “We must either tax these bonds, or the Federal debt will be repudiated in less than six years. The holders of these bends ought to be satisfied with exemption from taxation for the last seven years.” N ear H anna ’ s F erry , ) July 2bt, 1870.
