The reports of the Springer com mittee on the star route frauds and plundering of the United States mar shals and supervisors which - have been given to the public within - the past few days give a. startling exhibit of . how : the government' has been fleeced out of millions of dollars ,by these persistent and ingenius plun- derers with the knowledge and con- . nivance of officials in , high place. Th&estimate is that during Hayes' ' administration the star route con tractors and their official silent part ners robbed the government out of at least $4,000,000 and while there was a pretense at prosecution of some of the guilty parties, all escaped save C a couple of subordinates, and to this day no attempt has been" made to institute civil action for the recovery of any of this money. The attempt at criminal prosecution cost the gov- ment several hundred I thousands jot -. dollars, fees for lawyers,- witnesses, ' court expenses, &c., and all amount ed to nothing. - - , c The report on the methods - of the marshals and supervisors shows what a fearful amount of corruption exist - ed in these departments, and how per ; sistent and systematically the : gov ernment was . plunderered .and . the "people oppressed to make fees I for - grasping .officials. This thing has been going on for years, be it remem bered, and there never ' was an. at tempt to investigate or check it until a-Demctic'Ctongress'tCK)k ' it an exposed its enormity. ; If all the money ' Republican rings arid officials have stolen from the treasury , were returned to it there would be - enough to pay the public debt.v.;; ."' ' " "AY KIN OLIVER.. : ! After a lare amount of serious . pondering, cogitation, deliberation, u and a protracted incubation, the Republican r Congressional . egg' . was hatched at Rockingham Tuesday and 'my son Oliver" is the' chicken that ; comes from the'shelL There was' an effort made previous to the conven- .tion by some tpf Mr Darby 's Wil - mington friends to put him to the - - front, but the bosses sat down on this, as they had concluded that they had already paid to much for the Liberal . whistle in putting York up- at the head of the State ticket, r It was per haps about the best thing: they could do, for Dookery can probably poll las - many: votes as any man .they ...have, . and while not being a man of any - remarkable brilliancy being an old - line Republican, though an endorser -of the coalition , movement, he can . command the support of his party. O f .course he must depend mostly on the I colored vote- for whatever of strength he may have, and the style of his campaign will be pretty much after the fashion of" Dr.- York, the - main features of which are humbug gery, and ' demagogic i appeals to - negroes and poor white men. In his last campaign against Bennett he - made some very rabid speeches, and we presume he will do -likewise . in this one. If the Democrats do ' their full duty he will bfc beaten over whelmingly. Only in the event that they fail to do their duty is there the" . slightest chance for his election. t Mr. John M. Moring, in announc ing himself as an independent candis date for Congress in the 4th district, says he will give his reasons in full to the people from the stump. All his reasons could be boiled down into l'I want to go to Congress.", - When Dr. York wants to become really impressive, and wants to give gpecial emphasis to some point in his speeches he exclaims "by the yetar XL 3? fctii looks solemn. '. Dr., York only went to school three gabions' "to a dirt dob school house," aid although he has had many ad vantages since he does not seem to Juvo improved them much.. ST, JOHN ACCEPTS THE LETTER OF THE PROniOI- . - TlOU CANDIDATE. : - . All Other Issues Snbordiaate to the Li-' dqaor Qaestlon. Chicago, September 30.--The secre-. tary of the National Prohibition party furnishes the following letter" o ac ceptance from Governor St. Johrij the candidate of that party for President of the United States: ; :.i : ':. 'Olathe. Kansas. September 26. Hon. Samuel Dickie, Chairman of the Committee, &c My Dear. Sir: In -formally accepting ; the. nomination for President tendered me by the Na .tional Prohibition party at Pittsburg, Pa,, July 25, 1884, 1 take the opportunity- to state that while the honor was neither sought nor desired Dy me, yet it is greatly appreciated, bestowed as it was by a convention composed of delegates wno m point ot real worth ana mental aonity were tuny equal, if not superior, to those of any pouticai convention maz ever assem bled in this country. The war for the Union is over, the rebellion' has been crushed, African slavery has been abolished, old issues have passed away, and with them: should go old prejudices ana sectional strue. . to day the products, of the North and South float in friendly relations in the. same channels, under the same flag, every section of our county acknowl edging allegiance to the same govern ment. There never was a time when our people could better afford and when it was more important that they should stop and think than now. With manufactories shutting down, banks breaking, merchants failing in business, securities unsettled, w estern wheat selling at the home market for iorty cents per ousnei, ana nunareas ot thousands or industrious mecnan ics and laboring men who are willing to work but can get nothing to do, it seems to me that the time has come for the people, who are the source of all political power, to call a halt, and stop and ttunic, tor there must be & reason for this condition of things. The little time and space the old parties can spare after dealing 'but the tuil measure of personal abuse and villification that each seems to think the other merits, is mainly devoted to a discussion ol the question of tariffs. ignoring all matters that relate to the moral elevation or the people. ; I am of the opinion that the manufacturer who, by reason of the depressed con dition of business, has been compelled to make an assignment for the benefit of his creditors, will not find relief in the agitation of that question now. nor will the average farmer become enthusiastic over its discussion while his wheat is not worth so much in the bin as it cost him to produce it. The amount received by-the Government for duties on imports is less than $200,000,000 annually. There 1 are about 170,000 retail dealers in mtoxi' eating liquors in the United States. each of whom pay to the government $25, in consideration of which sum they are permitted to carry on their business for . the - term of twelve months. When 'we add' to thisil the amount paid by distillers, brewers and wholesale dealers, we find that the interest ; of the Government in the manufacture and sale of: intoxicating liquours is about $80,000,000. annually. This traf fic,, sanctioned as it ; is by the laws of our cOuntiy, coats the people at the lowest estimate a thousand million dollars a year, not to speak of tne destroyed nomes.; debauched manhood, poverty, heartache, crime and corruption it produces. .J his disgraceful business should be f up pressed, and the enormous sum of money, that under the present system is worse thrn thrown, away saved to the people, and thus protection would be given to the industries of f the country tnat would enable us suc cessfully to throw our doors open wide to tne competition or the wrld The Republican and Democratic bar- ties favor the, continuance of: the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage, while the j?ro bibition party demands that the same shall be forever suppressed. Thus an -issue is presented to the people in which is involved the protection of every home in the land.- It is not a mere local issue, either, but it is a national as well as a practical ques tion, upon which a large and respect able body.of citizens against whose convictions party discipline is pow erless have decided to vote, and they will not be found halting between two opinions touching that matter, but will work and pray and vote against this great evil, until it is driven from our land never to return. The gov eminent is simply & reflex of the individuals composing it. .We want an honest, sober people, but we can never have an honest, sober people so long : as tne - government sanctions that which makes its citizens dishon est, drunken and corrupt. The - dec laratibn of principles, which I hear-! tily endorse. - as set forth in s the platform of the Prohibition party, is entitled to the thoughtful considera tion ana earcest ttort of aU-eood citizens, without regard to locality or former political . affiliation. , t Our country needs an; administration that will rise above party considerations, and in the selection of public officials niase nonesty, sobriety and. efficien cy: and not service to Dart v. the teat -rr . . . . . - . . -F " I r. .it snouia oe conducted not m the in terest 1 of ? any particular section. party, race. or color, but in the interest of the : whole Tpeople. t To accomplish this all - good citizens should promptly step to the front and do counted ror tne right. This is no time for moral cowardice." which will never win, and surely never deserves victory. Then let us look to God for nis : guidance, and ; fearlesslv Jand faithfully do our duty,-; never doubt ing tnat lie will take care of results." i , INTENSE 11E AT And An Unparelleled Dronghtjn Pied . , mont Virclnia. . ; ', Ltnchbcbg, Va., Oct 1.

He charged the jury that, while selling liquor is in clictable, buying is equally a violation of the law, that all persons testifying to having purchased liquor are sub ject ,to inaictment, and that, refer ring, as is supposed, to the lemper ance Alliance, in the case of any per sons being: induced or encouraged by any organization or body to buy liquor for the purpose of-criminating i no seller, such. buyer ; wouia be indictable, and such body will be guilty of concessory, and subject to indictment.
