E'hc sub Treasury.

The Richm. d Enquirer is the loudest
and most influential print in the Union,
in support of Mr. Van Buren,. Hear what
the editor said of the Sub -Treasury,when
Gen Gordon first introduced it in 1897.
and bear in mind that this is the GREAT
measure of Mr. Van Buren,.
In the Enquirer Of September S,h, 1897,
MIR. Richie thus speaks:
81 he public moneys, from the time of
their receipt, 10 the time Of their ,lisbursc-
ment, amounting as they often do to ten
or tweives millions of dollars, must re-
main in the hands Of individuals "appon-
ted by the President and removable 1T Lii,
will" They ought not to be kept, in
Their POCKETS, CHESTS, orvAULTs. where
they can approach it erery day and use il;
without the checks of warrants, drawn.
couner-signcd, registered and recorded,
and passing through many hands, without
which Chat is, their warrant not dollar
can new be touched by any public of
licer, not even by the President him
self
"We have no desire 10 sec such an sac
emulation Of power in the hands of the
ExecuLive'-no wish to put the money
directly INTO the palms of his friende and
parlizans. We wish to see the power and
patronage Of the Executive increased as
little as posslblc-''lhe purse and sword
not more strongly nni,cd," than they are
in the hands OF the President and as few
MEANS of corruption as possible trusted
in his possession"
In the Enquirer of September 18th, '37,
the editor des gnalcs the Sub-Treasury as
"a wild and dangerous scheme,o and de-
clares that it establishes "two sorts of
currency-the better for the officers of the
Goyornment-the baser one for the peo-
pie. And again in his paper Of October
2Oth OF the same year, he says 'sthe Sub
Treasury, will enlarge the executive
power. already too great for Repub-
lie"
Such were the former opinions, of the
Sub-treasury, avowcd by the "Democra-
tic" editors and politicians, but they ask
too much when they call upon the peo-
pie to exhibit hckleness equal to their
own, by reversing their decision of 1S4U.
