The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1870-03-12

The Minden Democrat speaks
of wolves having been lately
heard in the vicinity of Minden.
Wolves are no novelty in the
north half of Bossier parish.
This part of our parish has
many staid old farmers who
have always been DESTROYS OF
raising sheep, but have been
prevented from so doing by
the ravages of wolves. The
north end of Bodcau lake is
covered with an impenetrable
thicket in which a few of these
animals take refuge and occa-
sionally raise young. From this
point they extend their ravages
in a circle of fifteen miles "a
dius. Although but four orfive
have been known to be in the
pack during the last ten or
twelve.ye yet have they eff
fectually prevented sheep rails
ing. A farmer may succeed
we'll for two or three years and
at the end Of that time have a
pretty large flock, but then one
or two wolves may break in on
him and in one night destroy
the whole.
Strange that these pests are
suffered to exist SO long wher
they are SO easily poisoned.

AVALANCHE OK GOLD The Araidache IN.
dertakes To disprore statement made in our
article published some two weeks since on
4" the advance in Greenbacks," and says there
is no real or intrinsic worth in gold" We
beg leave 10 differ with our O.,hee friend.
Tie scarcity Of greenbacks has no effect what
ever on the value OF gold. The demand for
currency like the demand for cotton or calico.
or grain, may raise the price temporarily OF
the commodity which is in demand. but il does
not affect the value Of gold. Some years ago.
In the far west States coon skins aud prlts,
OF different kinds were used as n circulating
medium: IN the lead mines, lead ore was used
| aud was received at the stores in exchange
for groceries and dry goods money was not to
be had. and yet our ueighbor viii not pretend
to say that the value of gold was affected ia
any manner BY the supply Of coon skins and
lead ore exceeding the supply Of gold. The
price Of all commodities raise or fall 10 proper
ton to the demand and supply. II gold is un.
locked aud disposition TO speculate possesses
the owners, the value. or price of the particu-
lar article or commodities in which they are
investing increases in proportion OF the supply
TO the demand Greenbacks are nothing but
paper promises TO pay. The government may
issue more or call in those already issued, being
currency representing money which is easier
Of transportation than gold or silver, the de-
mand for such medium Ut exchange will reg.
ulate the value, but will any one pretend to as
sert that either the contraction or expansion |
of the volume of currency will render gold
either less or more valuable. II is a common
phrase to say the sun is rising" or the sun
is setting and yet we know that the sun is |
stationary. 1t is in the same way common
which is daily used that gold is
going up" or gold is falling" and yet the
the fact is gold is neither rising nor falling.
but that there is demand for or a supera.
Guidance of currency. Suppose no country
aad ever issued bonds or currency would there
be any such thing as gold quotations or a gold
room. Bonds and currency can be manufac.
ured, cotton, grain, etc. can be grown, but
yold can not be manufactured or grown. The
discovery of new mines of gold increases the
lmount OF the circulating medium and univer-
al standard of values, but it does not prevent .
from being the standard by which ia regu-
ated the value of all other products and CON-
nodities.

REPUBLICAN, INTERrERENcE.-The States
man of the Odd says: The WORLD whinngl,
complains that few Republicans were endeav.
oring to raise discussions in the Democratic
party at the primary election in Idaho. City,
DC. We viii inform our neighbor that the
World whines at nothing. We noticed few
black Republican loafers making themselves
very ofiicious on the occasion referred to, and
thought at the time that they would have shown
more sense had they attended to their own
business; and they would have received MOTH
ing more than they deserved had some Demo-
crat politely kicked them out Of the crowd
We certainly have no objection to seeing our
Republican friends present either OF our pri-

glad 10 zee them around, but Democrats don't
intend that they shall be too oficious in med.

CONGRESS AFTER TpAHo. On the 18th
inst. bills were introduced in the Senate an.
nulling certain acts of the Idaho Legislature.
We are told this much by the dispatches aud
nothing more. What acts are to be annulled
1t Is difficult to determine, but We will venture
to predict that il any of the acts Of the Idaho
Legislature are set aside by Congress. it will
be the act for the taxing of foreign miners.
The Radicals have got through with the negro
and now they propose to devote their time and
attention to John Chinaman. Idaho Radicals
will tell the people that the Cinnamon ought
to be taxed, but it is all matter OF policy with
them to say so. They know it will not do for
them to declare their true sentiments openly,
that Chnaman is as good "A white man,
and he ought not TO be taxed any more, &c,
that would defeat them for Office; but Rad.
ical in Idaho is the same as Radical in Mas.
sachusetts or Washington. In Idaho he may
go in sleeps clothing or put gu the livery Of
Heaven, but it is done for the purpose of serv.
ing the devil in. We are satisfied the Radical
party in Idaho are in favor of repeating the
China tax law, and that they would blindly
follow the doctrines Of their brethren in the
East and welcome Chinese to the privileges of
citizenship.
