THE PUBLIC DEBT

Has been reduced in November last
s7,51,4 54, and since the lst OF March
last 81, 9o3, 525, almost eight Million
Dollars every month. since Gen Grant be-
came President. What do our opponents
say to that? Where is that failure OF
Grants Administration, where Is now
that democratic prophecy of the bank
ruptcy Of our national finances? Where
the ruin of our county so surely predicted?
and where is the success hoped for by the
fulillment of these predictions
No wonder the opposition is complete
" disguised, their thunder is dying away,
all their misrepresentation have fallen
back on their own heads; our debt Is
steadily getting reduced, Gold is going
down and the national credit constantly
rising; in little while specie payment
will be resumed, our taxes will be re-
duced and we shall soon be as prosperous
and independent as we were before the
war against the rebels South and their
abettors at the North.

lished notice to soldiers and their heirs,
in regard to presenting their bounty
claims before December /, 1869. Many
persons, upon reading it, supposed that
new bounty had been offered, but an
attorney Of GAINESVILLE gives the Gazette
the following statement Of the different
bounties allowed to class eleven volun-
teers. It will be read with interest by
the soldiers who are in doubt as to their
claims
CLASS II, VOLUNTEERS. Recruits who
enlisted under calls prior to Dec. "a 1868,
for three years, 500. By the law of
July %, 1866, these recruits get 500
additional bounty, if they served not less
than two years, or were discharged for
wounds. making total of 5000 boun-
ty.
Recruits who enlisted in ne,o organiza :
tons for three years, between Dec a,
1868, and April l, 1864, $500.
Recruits who enlisted in old organiza-
tons for three years, between Oct. %,
'63 and April /, 1864, $500.
Recruits who enlisted in veteran regi-
ments, having 500 or more veterans, for
three years, from Jan. %, ga, to April
l, l64, $500.
Recruits who enlisted under the call of
the President for $1,000, for one, two,
or three years, from July Is, "a, to
April 80, 1865, 800 5000, $500, respect
lively.
Recruits who enlisted under any other
circumstances, 800.
1t will be seen by this statement that
no general additional bounty lawl has
been passed since July %, 1866, although
certain limited classes have been favored
by construction of the laws. Those dis
charged for disability other than wounds,
who have not served two years, are not
entitled to the additional bounty.

Good Reasoning of q Printer.

One of our old cotemporaries, the
Kenosha Union speaks to the point
follows: 5
I'VE have resolved that from and af
er January lst 1870, we will send no
subscriber our paper who does not pay
in advance. We cannot live and do jus
tice to ourselves and printers on the cred
it or no pay system. Do we exact any
thing unreasonable ?-We have to pay
cash for our paper, ink, fuel, and lights,
and our printers must be promptly paid
How then can we live, and conduct our
paper unless we are paid ? +"
Our Kenosha neighbor has the argu-
ment no one would think of taking a
newspaper from Chicago or any other
large city without paying in advance, any
more than he would presume on buying
a RAILROAD ticket, promising to pay there
fore at some convenient time in the fu-
ture. There is hardly reasonable ex-
pense attending the running of a print
ing Office, which has not been paid for
down, or what is equivalent to it.-Be
lott Free Press & Journal.

Statistics show that in the manufac
turing districts of England, the ordinary
day wages of the men is about twenty
five cents. and of the women and chill
dren less. By the use of this class of
labor, English manufacturers can make
goods at = lower price>than' they can be
manufactured In the United States, for
the reason that in this country fair
price is paid the working man for his
labor. Now, the practical operation of
Free Trade would be to reduce the wages
of the laboring classes, or to put an end
to manufacturing at once. An argument
in favor Of Free Trade is an argument
against the best interests OF the worklng
man. The movement in favor of Free
Trad in the United States IS organized
and the expenses of it are paid by En-
glish gold
The Manitowoc tribune. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1866-1878, 1869-12-09
Those who are disposed to listen to

Those who are disposed to listen to
the doleful appeals of the Free Trade
men should remember the fact that this
Free Trade movement is aimed directly
at the laboring man. Take the item of
wooden goods. A yard Of wooden cloth
costs less to day than before the war.
Why is it? Simply because under the
workings of protective tariff we have
WOODEN mills in nearly every county in
the land. Establish free trade, admit the
goods made in England by labor which
costs only from six to ten cents per day,
and not one Of these factories could live.
The price of those fabrics would decline
temporarily, but the destruction of our
manufacturing which would necessarily
follow, would leave us entirely at the
mercy of foreign manufacturers.

G. l.. Park received about 200 votes
for Lioutenant-G Governor, and E. A. Spen-
Ger about 1000 for Secretary of State.
Owing to the fact that the blanks sent out
from the Office of the Secretary of State
bore the names of Park for Lieutenant
Governor, and Spencer for Secretary of
State, both of whom were subsequently
withdrawn, numbered errors were made
by the county officials, but the result as
officially decided is given above.

RAILROADS..

Our friends will see from the reports
on our local page that Railroads are the
allabsorbing subject of conversation and
activity Of our citizens. Two meetings
in one evening. The one to further the
Western road from here to Appleton, the
other to connect the same road with the
proposed Milwaukee and Appleton road
by Lake Shore road from Milwaukee
here and thence to Appleton. Instead
of being divided upon this question, as
We now are, it seems to us, that it would
be greatly to the advantage of our people
if they would act in perfect unity for
the object is one and the only difference
is in the manner Of trying to obtain that
object. While some of our citizens are
still wanting. to wait for Mr.. Reed TO
build the Western road, others and among
them all our citizens of means and in
fuence have become satisfied that Mr..
Reed cannot or wiW not have tbs end of
has road butA; that, if we do not move
no,o and eaergeticaly too, we shall be en-
tirely cut off by road proposed to be
built from 20 to 80 miles west Of lake
Michigan between Milwaukee and Apple
ton, but that, with proper effort aud sup
port, we can now obtain not only road
from Milwaukee here but also from here
to Appleton, and that some of our clt1-
zens are opposed to such project, it is
impossible for us to conceive the reason.
The meeting at the Court House was
called by the friends Of the Western road;
that was all right, but when some of these
friends, who believe that the proposed
Milwaukee & Appleton road by the Lake
Shore is the best means to obtain the
Western road, tried to explain their views,
they were Uninterrupted and called to order
that a0as acrong and we hope will never
happen again. As we have often said
before, we must be UNITED, we have
waited patiently for years, have run our
selves into debt and are just as far as we
were thirteen years ago, and no further !;
why can we not act in unity nov, when
every prospect is offered to US, that we
can have not only that road to Appleton
but also Lake Shore road to Milwau-
kee and Chicago. Can any eff our citl-
zens be blind enough to believe, that our
being connected with the South and East
by Railroad will be an INJURY to our
Village? Is not the Milwaukee & Chi
cage railroad one of the best paying roads
in the United States? and is not the sit
uation of Manitowoc to Milwaukee ex-
actly the same as that between Milwau-
kee and Chicago? Can it injure our har-
Dor? Have we not then the same adj
vantages of navigation that we now en-
10y, only very materially increased?
Citizens of Manitowoc, ttinkJor your-
selres and act accordingly; shun the
croohings OF the few that would lead you
in blind opposition to your own best In
tere SITS Be amited, act as one man, for
one interest and but few years hence we
shall find ourselves happy and prosper
Gus in city of twenty thousand inhabl-
tants, with as good connections and as
bright prospects for constantly increasing
advantages, as are now enjoyed by any
city on the shores of Lake Michigan
