Reputation.

1t is no new tangled notion, but has
a venerable precedent. W. Kautz,
Quincy, ILL.,, recently sent to the Sec
retary of the Treasury fifty dollar
note ofthe old Continental currency,
with request for its redemption
The U. S. Treasurer made the follow
ing reply:
by the act of Congress passed Au-
gust 4th, 1899, the continental curren-
cy was receivable at the Treasury un
til September LIST, 179l, at the value of
oHe hundred dollars in said currency
ior one dollar in specie. This privi-
icge, by act of May 9Th, 1892, was ex-
tended to March 9TH, 1893, since which
date there has been no law permit

U.ary Law-ren Per Cent.

| A vigorous effort is being made ,bs
the money interest to induce thelI eg.
islature of this State to so change the
usury law as TO allow the taking 81
ten per cent. interest on special con-
tract. Scarcely day passes that petit
tions are not presented in the two
houses urging this measure. We
hope the Legislature will not heed
their prayers or grant their request
Such law would be of no possible
advantage TO the laboring, producing
people OF the Etafe. We knowit IS
claimed that money is scarce. But
these gentlemen who are urging for
ward this measure should remember
that It has not been Democratic le6is-
iation that has produced this strin-
gency; that while, q few short months
ago, the Democracy were urging the
payment of the Government $50
bonds in legal tender, or greenback
currency, which would have relieved
the stringency in the money. market.
these same gentleman denounced it as
measure to food the country with a
worthless paper currency. yet now
their cry is that there is nota sufficient
quantity of money with, which to
transact the business of the State.--,
They were then as now looking to the.
main, chance,o What a glorious thing
1T would be, to be sure if. these gem
tlemen conld only induce Congress to
force a resumpt len Of specie uayrnent.
by which they would get gold for
bonds, which they purchased with
deprecated paper, and then in.
duce 0ur Democratic. Legislature to
legalize ten per cent interest. The
people then would be at their mercy.
BIT we have had some experience
with such ? law, aud SO far, did, it fail
to make money plenty, that the people
demanded its repeal, and it is among |

Radicaiism,

We know not to whom credit is ,du,
for the following, but it is SO true ,
picture of RadIcalism that we adop
1t, endorsing every paragraph as al
exact representation of one or another
feature, on the face of the so-calle6
Republican party:
Calling themselves Cnionists, they
have consummated and maintained
disunion.
Affecting economy, they have given
us the costliest government OH earth.
Prating of virtue, they have made
it the most corrupt.
Clamoring for equal rights, they
have prescribed more people than any
monarchy in christendom.
Invoking freedom, they established
and maintain the darkest despotism in
eleven States.
Protesting federation, they proclaim
the acceptance of their creed the al
tentative of ostracism and disfran-
chisement.
Howling about purifying the Gov
ernment, they have made dishonesty
and office-holding identical.
Preaching principle, they subsist by
passion and prejudice.
Deploring caste, they elevate blacks
above whites in one-third of the coun-
try.
Magnifying loyalty, they have tram
pied out every worthy principle of our
system. rfos
Cfa1m1ng statesmanship, their Off
cials are either conspirators or thieves.
Lauding independence, they are the
serVile slaves to party caucus.
Pretending to invite criticism. thev
stifle freedom of debate in Congress
by partisan rules, and drown it else
where in blood. 1aH7.t 'e3a
Insisting upon peace, they prolong
the old war and strive to stir up a new
one. E.-i
They have made anarchy and cali it
peace. Pretension, without sincerity
IS their programme, to be carried out
with tyranny. Their creed is hypocri-
~, their peace is cant, their practice is
heft, their end is despotism. - MO
