Democratic enquirer. [volume] (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1867-1873, 1870-03-30
-Four Hundred MttHonS.

The public can hardly fail to
be astounded at the announce.
ment made by Mr.. Beck, a mem.
ber of the Committee on appro.
priations, on the floor of the
House, that the expensesssof the
Government for the first year
of the Grant administration
would probably reach four hun
dred millions of dollars. The
appropriations for the year, the
Detroit Free Press says, foot
at three hundred and fourteen
millions. This has all been ex'
pended, and an appropriated
balance of ninety-four millions,
excepting eight millions there
from, has also been expended.
This would make an aggregate
expenditure Of four hundred
millions of dollars. The state
ments of Mr.. Beck are based
upon information furnished by
the Secretary Of the Treasury.
There was no successful effort
made by the administration
to refute the charge
of Mr.. Beck, and it must pass
into the record as an undenia-
BILE fact.

Effect of the Cold Decline.

A dispatch from New York
city dated on Thursday, the
10th, says:
"The losses on the stock of
goods in this city by the de-
cline of gold during the past
seven or eight weeks are esti-
mated $685. 100000. Since Mon
day not less than twenty five
firms, their liabilities amounting
to $4,000,00O or $5,O00,00O,
have failed or suspended"
That is one of the beauties of
the reduction The United
States in order to help the
bondholders, is doing the same
business aud will become a
bankrupt before the thing is
done with. 1t looks very well
on paper to talk about specie
payments and gold at par, but
when we come to pay 100 cents
for every 40 invested in the
bonds of the United States we
will find out where we stand.

The first steamer used on oul
western waters was built under
the immediate supervision Of
Robert Fulton, at Pittsburg, in
1911. 1t was called "The Or.
leans,' and left Pittsburg in
October of that year, arriving
Natchez about January /, 1912.
This boat ran between Natchez
and New Orleans for about
two years, making the voyages
to average about seventeen
days, and was finally wrecked
near Baton Rouge.

The men who think that we

The men who think that we
are doing a paying business by
bringing gold and greenbacks
on an equal footing certainly
do not see the chains that we
are riveting on ourselves in the
shape of a bonded debt. AS
an illustration we give the fol-
lowing case. A man in 1862
had $1,000 in gold, He sold
it for $2,400 in greenbakcs in
1868. With these greenbacks
he bought $2,400 in bonds
These bonds Of course, cost him
just 81, 900 in gold. For seven
years he has drawn six per
cent. annually, also in gold, on
the face of his bonds. Six per
cent. in gold, simple interest,
on $2,40O, is 144 dollars per
annum. For seven years, it
has amounted to l,O08 dollars,
or eight dollars more than he
invested in the first place, reck-
oning only simple interest, so
that now he receives by hav-
ing gold and greenbacks bro't
on par: Principal 2,400 dol
lars; interest, 1,00S dollars; to-
tai, 3,4O9 dollars in gold, for
what cost him only 1000. 1t
is net profit of more than 24O
per cent. Do you see anything
in this, poor man, to applaud?
This whole downward tendency
of gold is designed, not to al
leviate the sufferings Of the
people, but to increase their
burdens, and make the bond
holder a profit of 240 per cent.
on his Investment. The reduc-
ton of the debt to gold basis
makes it a perpituity, as there
is not in the whole world
enough coined gold to pay it
and we will have fastened down
on us shortly a debt similar to
that which weighs the English
people down.

A Radic0HSen0t0r IN a DIFF
HcltLEu.

United States Senator James
H, Nye was one of the
Radicals sent to New Hamp-
shire to stump that State for
the Administration. After he
had closed his speech at Ports
mouth on the honesty of the
Administration, a letter to the
Boston Post says:
"The Senator had closed his
speech, when the Sheriff Of the
county served writs' upon him
for a debt incurred in Europe
two years ago, requiring his
appearance at the April term
of the Supreme Court at Exter.
The allegation is that Mr., Nye
then bought of a diamond mer-
chant i'll Constantinople, a pair
of bracelets set with rubies and
q diamond brooch insthe form
of butterfly, for Is pounds
He gave his note, promising to
send the money on his return
home. This he not only fail
ed to do, but has treated all
duns with contemptuous 81.
lence. The matter is in the
hands of a legal firm in Boston,
to whom it was sent at the in
stigation of the United States
Minister, who considers him,
self in honor responsible for
thea debt, as he introduced
the Senator to the merchant as
q gentleman"

Look OWt!

1t will no doubt be gratify-
ing toEsuch people as listened
to the Radical cry of Demo
cratic extravaganza and paid
particular attention to a lying
electioneering document which
charged the last Democratic
Legislature with all kinds of
looseness in appropriations and
extravaganza in the financial af-
fairs of the State, to know that
the Radicals with their major
ity, have increased the State
taxes 5 per cent. The tax for
State purposes last year, was
30 cents on 500. This year
there will be an increase Of 5
cents, making the total tax for
the State, 40 cents on $780,
We told the people at that
time that such charges against
the Democratic party were the
sophistical arguments of a pack
of rascals, bent on getting their
noses into official position and
their hands in the peoples pock.

RcretS CRATES.

The agony is over. The
nation breathes. Revels has
been delivered of a speech
We are assured by Washing
ton correspondents that the
galleries of the Senate were
densely packed on Wednesday
with a highly respectable con-
course of white and colored peo-
pie, to hear the murky orator
discourse upon the wrongs of
his race generally, and the
dwellers of Georgia in particu-
lar. But it appears that there
was one class of dignitaries in
Washington who did not testify
to the greatness and Importance
of the occasion. We mean the
diplomatic corps. Neither
England, France, Spain, Aus
tl'ia, Russia, Prussia nor Tur-
key were represented on this,
the general muster day of
American craftsmanship. The
conduct of the ENJOYS Extraor,
dinary and Ministers Plenipo-
tentiary is reprehensible in the
last degree, and further COM
munication with them ought to
be closed at once. What right
have they to sit idly under the
shadow of their alistocratic and
despotic flags, while the states
man of the period was pouring
out his maiden speech in tor
rents of eloquence upon an en-.
tranced Senate, the members OF
which, with the exception Of
one or two Democrats listen
ed with the most profound and
awe.stlicken attention to the
startlingly original speech,
which had never been repeated
more than six times by each of
the Republican members ofthe
Seanate.
The 'one or two unattentive
Democrats ought to be asham,
ed of themselves. why didn't
they put themselves into an at
titude of profound attention,
shove back their hair, open
their mouths regulation width,
and convince the world that
they were an appreciative turn
of minds Now, for our part,
we always liked this speech Of
Revels, and we think, upon a
reasonable estimate, we have
put in at least two months o.

The Omission, OF a TtCO Cent
Stamp Cost $145.


An illustration of the way
in which Revenue officers of
this administration Fare doing
business, is seen in the case of
Mr.. Samuel G. Miller, of Reeds.
burg, in Wayne county. He
recently gave a receipt to a
Mrs. King, in Ashland county,
for $33,Sl, and not having a
stamp, nor being within nine
miles of where one could be OBJ
tanned, he gave to Mrs. King
change enough for her to pur-
chase and put one on the re-
ceipt, which she promised to
do. Last week he was arrested
and taken to Cleveland on the
charge of having defrauded the
Government in not having put
a two cent stamp on said re-
ceipt. He was required to pay
the officers at Cleveland
$129,00, and the additional ex-
penses he was at run his losses
up to $145,0O! Such things
did not occur when the Demo.
cratic party was in power,
