The Currency Bin.

The financial measure introduc.
ed by Mr.. Garfield, passed the
House on the Nth, after having
been amended in several particu-
lars. AS it now stands, it author
ICES the issue Of $95,000,0O0 OF
Natioral bank notes; It provides
for the redemption of$45, 100000 OF
8 per cent certificates, and redis-
tributes $25,0O0,O00, taking from
the States which have an excess of
circulation, and allows banks to re-
move from such States to other
States where increased banking IA
cilities are wanted.
1t is believed the measure will
be defeated in the Senate--a fate
which we think viii not be extern
sivcly mourned, as the general con
viction is that the country has ma
tional bank currency enough.

MORE NUTS FOR HAwLEY TO CRACK.

Will Lord Hawley, as the great financial
genius of the Union, or any radical who
talks about the economy of the radical con
gress, answer the following
First-We are taxed sl0.2s per capita,
as against 81 per capita in 1860.
Seeond-Ius.ead of having funded the
debt at a lower rate of interest, the bonds
are not even printed, and the six per cent.
bonds are still under par in Europe.
Third-The expenditure of $57, 600, 900
for war purposes in q time of profound peace
is dangerous to our liberties and disgraceful
to a republican form of government.
Fourth-The expenditure of $2l, 700, 900
for the navy is a disgrace, inssmueh as We
have nothing to show for it.
FtM-The reduction of internal taxes is
entirely IN favor of capital and monopolists.
SirM-The gold which our people so
much need at home is shipped to Europe to
buy bonds at a premium which are not due
for fourteen years.
.Secerth-That the currency furnished to
our people is worth Sc cents on the dollar.
Eighh-That the government is con
trolled BY the m~onopolists of Massachusetts.
Will the republican voters ask themselves
why Lord Hawley and the other party lead
ers are obliged to leave these accusations

~Coutemptible Attack.

One of the most contemplate attacks that
the Union has been guilty of during the
present campaign, is the attack upon Jacob
Warner, when it says he ~isemployed and paid
by Cables money. This is an attempt to
iniure him as an employe ofthe Government.
Does the Union think it can scare men into
voting for Hawley, because they are working
under q Radical Government? 1t will learn
to the contrary. This is what Hawley tried
to do, by telling workmen on the Island
that he would have them discharged if they
did not vote for him. Such contem ptibte,
low and mean tricks to secure votes will
condemn him with all honest men.
Does the Union or Lord Hswley, think
these men are slaves, that they thus attempt
to browbeat, to threaten, and drive them
out of employment. Bah The sneaks car
no more scare these men nor affect them
than the meanest cur that snaps and snarls
at their heels. This is yet q country where
every man has as good q right to his opinion
as Lord Hawley or the Union have to
theirs.
Democrats pey as much tax as these
lordly dictators, and because they work FOX
the Government, shall a radical congress
man come and drive Them to the polls, as
they do the niegers as 30 many cattle.
Shame upon such dastardy acts.

What illinois Paws for Protection.

Illinois pays interal revenue BIS, 000,0 900.
She pays SIS, 900 900 tariff, making S33,-
900, 900. Besides she pays advanced rates
for iron, salt, lumber, leather and other
articles protected by the tariff, $38, 900 ,00e,
These S38, 200, 900 go into the pockets OF
the protected classes, while the $33, 200, 00O
go to support the government.
We thus pay, under the radical system,
81 900, 600, of which only $4,000 900 are
used by the government. The balance of
S38, 000, 900 is psyed into the pocket Of the
protectionists, into the pockets of the men
for whose benefit John B. Hawley voted,
instead of voting as a western man should
have voted, for the men who elected him.
Can the voters of this district vote for such
a man. We think not, if they will think of
these things.
They certainly should vote for Mr.. Gable
who is in favor of abolishing custom houses,
and send their officials to work for an honest
livelihood. The people would then pay
direct taxes, which, at the utmost, would
scarcely amount to sl5, 900, 900, instead of
81, 000, 900 under the present system.
Will the voters of this county who pay
high taxes think of these things.

DID HAwLEY OPPOSE rHx BRIpee.

Do the citizens of Rock Island remember
. certain indignation meeting held in the
Council room two years ago, which was
called on the information received from Gen.
Rodman and Hon. Hiram Price congress-
man from Davenport, that certain interested
parties in this city were conspiring to
oppose the building of the bridge and
thereby e~ndangering all the appropriations
on the Island ? Do they also remember
how John B. Hawley came before that
meeting and denied having opposed the
bridge before he was erer accused Of it?
A guilty conscience needed no sccuser then.
His voluntary defense, set people tothinking
and investigating, and they found that there
was need of q defense for he had actually
written to congressman Harding urging him
to oppose the bridge for the benefit of his
party friends. Harding replied that he
could not do i. as it would defeat the other
appropriations for the Island. That wa

he will have them discharged and if they

How the People are Robbed by
Radical LEGISLATION.

Increase in 1S70........... 273,633
Salt weights 81 pounds to the bushel. On
the grades of salt manufactured at Syracuse,
the radical tariff has established q duty of
from Is to "a cents per 100 pounds, the
only effect of which is to shut out the
importation of those grades of salt, and
enable the robbers of the Syracuse salt ring
to take from the pockets Of the people
and put in their own the amount of that
duty over aud above a legitimate business
profit. Taking the average between Is and
81, and the ring have robbed the people
this year, up to October 10Th,
of over 100000. When the
year closes this plumber will he over
81, 900, 900. This is one item of" the tax to
which the people are subjected" but which
puts not one cent into the peoples treasury.
With this effect of protection" before
them the people can readily understand the
force of the Hon. freeman Clark's declars
tons in his letter TO Senator Morgan, that
The honest Taxpayers are now paying
upon a basis of revenue of about NINE
HUNDRED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
PER ANNUM, while not more than halt Of
that sum finds its ,cay into the treasury.
Statistics of the manufactures, productions,
etc., of the country will prove that if the tax
to which they are subjected were fairly col
leoted, and the same rule applied to our
customs duties, the income of revenue
would amount to about the sum named
above. NINE HUNDRED MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS.
So long as the republican party is in
power the people will be subjected 20 this
oppression and robbery. The only road for
relief lies over the ruins of the republican
party.-Rochester Union.
