(xurcelvu Squelched.
We take :t for granted our readers
and all good people will rejoice with
us that there is at leant one ef the co
ordinate branches of the State Govern
ment of Maine clothed with authority
and possessing the moral honesty te
speak to the country in condemnation
of the revolutionary programme of the
Bourbon bulldozers of that Republican
Common wealth; and that recognizes
and respects the fundamental princi
ples of popular government.
It appears Garcelon and his council,
alarmed at the wave of indignant pub
lic opinion, which not only whelmed
their own state, but which has swept
unchecked over the entire nation, at
tempted to take advantage of the re
quest of the chairman of tbe Republi
can State Central Committee and while
refuting to submit the frank and fair
statement of Ex-senator Morrill, after
days of labor subasitted some twelve
purely legal prepositions to tho su
preme judicial court of that state, hop
lag at least that they would prevent
an opinion which would interfere with
their scheme of bulldoziug the entire
state government out of the hands of
the people. We have no space to give
the full text of the opinion, but the
following are the main points decided
. To the first question the court an
swers, where there 13 absolutely no re
turn from a city, the governor and
council cannot order an election, but
when any vacancy is declared they then
must act and order a new election. If
they reject a return then there is a va
cancy and they must act.
To the second question the court re
plies that the act of 1877, chap. 212
f 1 1 J 1 Vl A . .
1 which me governor anu council en
tirely disregarded as unconstitutional)
was a valid act, and was passed to aid
the canvassing board, in supplying
emissious and perfecting returns and
to prevent fraud and mistake.
To the third question the Court says
most of the cities are required to have
seven .aldermen, and seme five ; that a
majority ef the seven are necessary to
transact business; that when a major
ity or quorum are present, a majority
of such quorum are qualified to trans
act the business. Consequently, when
a return is signed by but three alder
men, it may be a valid or legal return.
inai uie iouii n n.emDer, oeing pres
ent, may have refused to act or sign
tho return, and that the Governor and
Council have no right to assumu that
such a return is not valid citing nu
merous authorities.
To the fourth question the Court
says it will not invalidate a return be
cause votes are returned as scattering,
especially when such votes being add
ed or subtracted does not affect the
general result, and that a return bear
ing scattering returns, when they do
not affect the general result, must be
canvassed like other regular returns;
that the presumption is always in fav
or of the return.
To the fifth question. "In the ab
sence of the town or city clerk can any
one else attest the returns?" the court
says, a deputy clerk or a clerk pro tem
pore can act and the return will be va
lid. Te the sixth question, the court says
there is no constitutional or other pro
vision, by which the governor and
council would be warranted in receiv
ing evidence to show that a return re
gularly transmitted was not signed
and sealed in open town meeting, and
that they must count them.
To the seventh questionthe court says,
when a majority of the selectmen are
absent from the meeting, or refuse to
act, the voters may choose selectmen
pro tempore; and that the governor and
council are not permitted to receive
evidence to show that but two select
men acted, that they must receive the
return.
To the eighth question the court
says: A person, not a citizen, can act
as a selectman, and he is, when so act
ing, an officer Oe facto, and that such
a fact would have no effect if it ap
peared on the faco of the return itself
citing many authorities.
To the ninth question the Court says
that the judges of election are the only
ones who are to judge whether a bal
lot has a distinguishing mark before it
goes into the box, and that after it
goes into the box it must be counted;
and no one has the power to reject it,
or the right to object to it, after it is
voted.
To the tenth question the Court in
timates that "ditto" marks are aa ab
breviation of common use, and that
persons of ordinary intelligence ought
to, and are supposed to understand,
and know what they mean; and that
such marks are no grounds for disfran
chising a plantation or city.
To the eleventh question the Court
says: ll:e governor and Council can
not reject a return on objection to the
gnature of an officer, unless an ob
jection in writing is presented, and
that then they must give all persons
interested notice, and a fair opportu
nity to be heard.
To the twelfth question the Court
says: v hen two lists or returns are
sent the Secretary of State, the return
first received is the proper one to act
upon; if defective, it can be corrected.
Sec. to. "Live stock in herds, or not
connected with a farm, shall be listed

1st."

Sec. 26. "Any person claiming a
portion of their property or funds are

empt, 8aall exhibit to tho assessor the
species of bond, the number, series, Ac
of each bond respectively."
Sec. 52. -Real Estate: Assessors

value of each lot or tract of land sub
ject to assessment."
The Assessor makes bis returns on

On the third Monday in Jane the Com

powers in this matter are very exten

cording to their ideas of equality.
m
o
(Notk bt Editor.) Property has
always been required, both by the Con
stitution and statute law, to be assess
ed at" its real value. It is only by cus
tom that assessors have graded whole
districts at a civen price, and stock at
a nominal value, and the Commission
ers have by custom so accepted the returns.
The better way is to assess all prop
erty at its true value, and then base
the levy, on 60 or 75 per cent, of that
on mor.ey. credits and all. Now it
works a hardship on all cash deposits
and cash values, and prevents their ap
pearing on the list at all. It is wrong,
and the Herald has often pointed out
the remedy equal taxation for all;
rich and poor.
The debts of the person assessed can
only be deducted from his or her mon
ey (cash in hand) or credits, and from
neither personal property, if in live
stock, houses, jewelry, chattels, etc..
nor from real estate ; only from "mon
ies and credits."
We believe wo have here answered
all our correspondent's inquiries, and
shall be pleased to answer all ques
tions of like kind to the best of our
ability. This tax question is one of the
utmost importance t the people, and
should bs d'scussed and understood by
all. Our legislators have seldom had
the sand to really, tackle this matter,
and do what is right ; they are so af rai l
of thpir precious reputations for the
moment, that they dare not follow
their honest convictions about tax-as
sessments.

Tribune:
ON 'CHANGE. A DAY OF UPS AND DOWNS
The New Year opened on 'Change
with a very variable feeling. At the
first it was very strong, and seemed to
lepend chiefly ,n tho understanding
that Kcene had sent the money here to
pay for the wheat that was to be de-
lvered on January contracts. This
strength soon extended into other de
partments. Wheat advanced Hoi a
cent, corn to pork about 30 cents
barrel, and lard about 10 cents per
100 pounds. It was soon found how
ever, tnat tne deliveries 01 all kinds or
produce, except meats, were very heavy
and this checked the ardor of buyers
so that offeiings were much increased,
and the feeling was a tame one, pork
closing 11 'Change at 10 cents lower
than Wednesday, and wheat of a
cent off. It was ascertained that
THE MONEY SENT HERE BY KEENK
amoanted to $2,000,000, which was
considerably less than the S4.000.000 to
S-j.000,000 at which Dame Rumor had
placed it two or three days previously.
The Wheat was all taken, and seemed
o be centered mostly 111 strong hands.
The chief point of weakness appeared
to be the fact that red winter wheat
was selling at one-half to one cent a
bushel below the price of No. 2 spring,
when in any other market in the world
he winter wheat is worth 10 to 15 cents
premium, ihis, with the fact tnat our
elevators are already nearly full, con
taining over 13,000,000 bushels of all
kinds of grain, which is certainly with-
n 2,000.000 bushels of their utmost
available capacity, set a good many
people to thinking. At the rate at
which wheat, has been coming in here
for a week p tst, not less than 120,000
bushels a day, on the average, with
other grain in proportion, and scarcely
anything going out, it would seem as
if two weeks more are sufficient to
FILL THEM CHOCK FULL
and leave the farmers to the mercy of
the railroads for the rest of the winter.
It is understood, on good authority,
that the parties who are controlling
the wheat deal in New York, have sent
circulars out into tbe country bread
east, advising tbe farmers to hold on
to their wheat, as they arc sure to get
$2 a bushel for it in the spring. This
was duly discussed among the know
ing ones on 'Change, and by then was
looked upon as a confession, of weak
ness and inability to take care of tho
deal of the movement of grain from
first Lands should coutinue for the
next three months at the rate of the
last throe. It certainly stems difficult
to think now
WHAT WILL BE DONE WITnTHE STUFF.
The storehouses in other cities are
full nearly to the same proportion aa
those in Chicago, and the stuff will
have to be kept moving after it is once
started, as there seems to be no resting-place
for it on the way between,
the producer and thecousumer.
It Is already noticeable that sever.il
parties who have been carrying wheat
from one month to another are draw
ing out, as the extensive margins that
they have bf en obliged to put p to
protect the deal have considerably less
eued the profit upon the transaction of
carrying by iucriasing the quantity of
money necessary to be used in the deal
They "are going out of wheat now, and
into provisions, which pay a good deal .
better. . i
We clip tho following article from
the Now York Tribune. It would
seeua that the simple reading of the
proceedings of such a meeting as that
held in the Broadway Tabernacle, show
ing the solicitude and expedients of
good people to redeem from degrada
tion and poverty the unfortunate ine
briates, ought to be sufficient to set
men of humane impulses and right
views of their relations to society, to
profound thought as to the fruits
which grow out of the rum traffic.
While the keepers of salooHs are liv
ing aiid rioting on the hard earnings
of those who haunt their dens, the
pure and the benevolent are busilv en
gaged in founding and supporting asy
lums to "rescue the perishing," to re
store lost happiness and prosperity aad
to reinstate wrecked manhood. What
a commentary on the greed for gain
and the ufter lack of principle. Saloon
men may cry "peace, peace, let us alone!'
but the generation of tottering victims
must first perish and theciies from de
solated homes must first die out, then
they may have peace tmless their own
consciences rise up torraeut to them.
TEMPERANCE IN NEW-YORK. -TRYING
TO RAISE TUlu FALLEN. ANNIVER
SARY OF THE NEW-YORK CHRISTIAN
HOME FOR INTEMPERATE MEN AD
DRESSES BY WILLIAM T. BOOTH, GEN
ERAL WOODFORD, JOHN B. OOfOU
AND THE REV. Dli. WILLIAM M. TAY
LOR. The friends of the "New-York Chris
tian Home for Intemperate man" tilled
the Broadway Tabernacle last night.
William T. Booth, president of the
Board of managers of the Home, pre
sided. In a short address, he described
the Home and its method of rescuing
from intemperance. He said that it
could take care of only twenty-five men
at a time, but nevertheless in thirty
months it had had 317 men within its
doors. Of this number UC0 had pro
fessed Christianity. The society could
put its hands on 20 men who came to
its shelter drunkards and paupers who
were to-day living c onsistent Christian
lives. It cost 810,000 to maintain the
institution. A new Home was needed,
and one with room for 100 men could
be tilled in a day. The managers de
sire to obtain siou.ouu to mm.! such
an enlarged institution; S20.000 had
already ben contributed, and lie hoped
the entire 3100,000 would be given 1 e-
fore the close of the year.
GENERAL WOODFORD
Two facts Tnust impress themselves
on those present. The first of these
was that in our advancing civilization
we are net keeping pae in raral de
velopment with the increase of pauper
ism and of crime. Every pl.il.iutiiro
phist, every Chiistian worker, must
see that year by year the percentage
of paupers and criminals to the total
of population in the great cities was
steadily increasing. The statistics of
L.cndon showed that some man or wo
man died of actual starvation in each
twenty-four houis. The statistics of
New-York, could they be developed,
would show that some human being
died under the shadow of our churches
and in the midst of our Christian civi
lization, died by actual starvation, at
least every four days. And this pov
erty and crime could be traced in a
great measure to in'emperance. And
what was the remedy for this? We
generally dealt with the poor man or
poor woman in such a way as to weak
en their manhood and womanhood. and
degrade them into being irremediable;
and there was not a thoughtful man
or woman present who could not look
back on instance after instance where,
in their efforts to help the poor fallen,
they had actually lessened their inde
pendence and made it more impossible
for them to help themselves. In this
institution they were taught to loo to
Jesus for help, and to work out their
own salvation, and with this institu-,
tion he was glad to express his deep
sympathy.
MR. GOUQH. -
knew by many experiences, although
many years had since passvd- away,
what it was to try to be a baiter man;
and there really was something awful
in the feeling that one had no power
to resist the terrible temptation that
is engendered by this babit of intem
perance. No doubt it was a hard mat
ter for a man te reform. There was
no doubt about it. And tho duty ef
the temperate seemed to him very
plain, because it was the customs of
society that sustained and upheld in
temperance, and brought these men to
the position iu which they were found.
No man intended to be a drunkard,
but the irresistible desire crew upon
him until he was mastered by it. He
believed drunkenness to be a sin, and
be also believed it to be a disease.
Where the sin began, however, he could
not tell. It was certainly a sin to get
drunk; the Bible told us so; every
man's conscience told him so. It was
a sin first, and a disease afterward,
and when once it got into the system
it could not be eradicated. It was a
sin, too, that brought its punishment
in this world, whatever might be the
sinner's fate in the next. No man
could reform from drunkenness unless
he became a Christian, and total ab
stinence must be part of his religion.
This institution taught men self-help
taught them that although God would
help them their regeneration lay with
in themselves, and for this reason it
was an institution thoroughly deserv
ing public sympathy and support.
ADDRESS OF DR. TAYLOR.
The Rev. Dr. William M. Taylor said
that ol many good causes he knew of
few which were more worthy ef cor
dial support than that of leinperauce.
The Home was entitled to the hearty
support of the Christians of New-York.
CnristiaHity would give a man the
s rength to resist drunkenness. There
was no institution 011 Manhattan Is
land which was doing so much good
at so little cost. It had rescued among
others the son of one of the most dis
tinguished clergymen in the land from
drunkenness. There was a good deal
of materialism preached. He would
have the preachers of the "gospel of
dirt" go down into Water St., and con
vert drunkards, as "Jerry" McAlay
had dene. There was great need of
just such an institution for women as
the one that had been provided for
men. Dr. Taylor closed his remarks
by saying: "A week from Thursday
you will have New Year's Day. Let
there be no wine on the side-board on
that day." This sentiment was ap
provedwith hearty applause. The au
dience then dispersed.
AN APPEAL TO "WOMEN.
The Board of managers of the Na
tional Temperance Society adopted the
following appeal:
To the icomen of New-York and its ti
cin ity :
In view of the influence you posssess
for the promotion of any good cause,
we appeal to you not to offer wine or
brandy, or any intoxicating drinks, to
your guests on New Year's Day. Too
many callers will find it hard to put
away the cup. without being compel led
to stand the test of a glass presented
by a lady in her own home. In the
interest of the many already bitten by
this serpent, and for the sake of the
thousands whom the adder has not yet
stung, we beg you to throw the weight
of your example during the coming
holidays on the side of abstinence and
safety.
