"work While 1t is Yet Day,

I To the EdIor Of the Belmont Chronicle:
.'If little labor. little are our gains,
Mans profits are according to his palms."
lis emphatically a true saying, and is
closely allied to political success. Many
persons imagine that there whole duty is
done if their voice is lifted up in argu-
ment at the corner grocery" at the
store-the hotel-if they are punctual in
their attendance at political meetings or
vociferous i'll their cheering for this or
that political candidate.
Ask such perOns to contribute to the
campaign fund-to give day of quiet
labor for the success of a political prin-
ciple-or i'll any way to make a slight
sacrifice of time or money for the cause
they have espouused-and the old stereO-
typed answer is elected "Oh!i | don't
believe in making such fuss about poll
tics" n political belief is not worth
working, paying, and praying for, and
unless this is attended to, any cause,
however just, will soon utterly perish.
The remembrance of the fact that those
who now solicit your influence and your
votes, have made every sacrifice for your
welfare, should nerve you to energetic
and immediate action in their behalf
They watched while you slept. If you
now give one day-they gave hundreds.
If you gave money, they gbve money,
time, strength, health, blood, life-to
contribute to the fund iof happiness and
prosperity which you now enjoy.
Do not forget them then, but labor Wig
orously, earnestly, persistently to secure
their election and the election of those
true men men associated with them OH
the Republican ticket.
And last but not least, don't forget your
home paper, labor to increase its circula-
ton, don't expend the funds of your
club or association for city papers while
your own party organ contains in con-
venience form, for perusal the most val
liable oliticalinformation extracted from
those papers-besides the news of your
own locality which makes the paper in
teresting TO men of every party.
See to it then that every family is sup
piled with your County paper, send it to
voters of opposite POLITICAL belief and it
will prove in your hands a most efficient
instrument for our success.
Previous to the battle of New Orleans
a young Englishman asked Yankee
Sergeant how the Americans expected
to compete with the British troops, con-
sisting as they did of such men as Lord
Buckingham, Piston, &C., for comman-
ders. The Yankee replied ION our side
we have the Lord Almighty and An
drew Jackson, and we are bound to lick
you" Now, whilst the "UBterrified"
Host of Lord Seymour, Davis and
"Pomeroy." We have the Lord AL
mighty, Ulysses S. Grant, and MAORI |

a glorious and permanent victory over

speech delivered by Hon. Horatio Sey
mour, at the Copper Institute, June 2G
1868:
OF dUae devices to cheat honest labor
to paTdLyze industry, to degrade publ
morals, and to turn business pursuits int
reckless gonabling, none hare been S,
hurt,d ds q shifting stGndordo Of udi,ie
debased and lying currency.
Every paper dollar now put out is ;
government falsehood, for it claims Il
he worth more than its real value, anC
it goes about the country defrauding the
| laborer, the pensioner, the mechanic anC
the farmer. An indignant chief of ont
of the tribes from whom we bought
| eyd annuity, said this government was
a cheat 1t got land from the Indians
! by promising them so many dollars each
year, that now it paid them in money
which was lie, which said on its face il
was a dollar when it was little more
/ than half dollar. The red man told
the simple truth.
If we wish to help the taxpayers, il
we wish to get at the cause of debased
currency in the hands of the laborer, we
must first find out why our credit is dis
honored, for it is a tainted credit that
sinks the value of bonds, of greenbacks
and bank notes. Make the credit of the
/ United States as good as that of Great
Britain or of a merchant of good stand
ing, or of a mortgage on farm, and our
troubles would disappear. If we make
our paper money good by harsh system
of contraction, we shall cripple the en-
ergies of the country, and make bank
ruptcy and ruin. If on the other hand,
,0e debdse the currency by ,tfaWise issues,
zoe shdU equally perpLer business and
destroy sober ind ustyy and all prices
mere matters of gambling, tricks and
Southern Confederdcy. At the outset the
citizens OF Richmond sCent to market
uih their money iu their Uest pockets and
brought back their dinners in their 6as-
kets; in the end they took their money in
their baskets and took home their dinners
in their Uest pockets. Make our money
good by an honest and wise course, and
when this is done, it will be worth twen-
ty-five per cent. more thar it is now,
which will be equal to an increase of
one-xuarter in the the amount of cur
rency. Business will be strengthened,
industry will be encouraged, prices will
be regulated, and men will then dare to
go with useful enterprise. We find
right here the cause of our troubles,
perplexities, and national Disgrace
Our credit is tainted. But for that, eoe
could 6orroaO money as Great Briton does
at three per cent. and cut doaOn taxation.
But for that eur paper money would be
good, and gold and silver would glitter
in the hands of labor.
We see clearly that state of affairs
which will compel you to take adebased
currency will force every laborer, farmer,

COMMUNICATIONS.


To he Editor Of the Belmont Chronicle:
SIR-Democratic rule-"Equal taxa
tion of every species of property accord
ing TO its real value, including Govern
ment bonds and other public securities. ,
i See national platform of Democratic
party adopted July, 1858.
Should this rule be adopted by Con
gress, and the States, it wOuiG work
startling changes. Our farm lands would
have 10 pay not less than four times IL
much annually us they now pay.
If Judge Thurman, i'll his Grafton
speech, published some two weeks ago
IN the ST Clairsville Gazette, does not
state what is untrue, under this rule ci
taxation, the farmer would have To pay
from eight to ten times us much tax Oh.
his farm as he now pays.
Judge Thurman is reported to have
said the American people were taxed
at the rate of So 50 on the hundred dol
iais.o
Let us reduce the democratic theory
TO practice and then follow out Judge
Thurman's facts ard we would have a
storm about us not easily quel!ed. Does
any one suppose tax law can be passed
through democratic Legislature at Co.
lumbus or Washington, that will compel
farmer who has good farm, TO pay
four dollars an acre in taxes every year
That would be on a farm of one hundred
ocres at 500 90 per acre, 1898 90 instead
of about $40 90 which he now pays in
Richland Township.
OF course they do not intend to pass
any such tax law. And of course what
Judge Thurman said is horribly false
But it is very shabby excuse for the
to say they did not mean
what they said, and not much of a de-
fence for member of the United States
Senate that what he says is so far from
the truth that nobody can believe, and
be mislead by it. C.
