radical ~nanciering

That was an important fact
stated by General Thomas Ewing
june, in his speech in Cincinna-
ii, that sisce 1866 the Federal
Government has rednced the vol
ume of eurrency from $40 pro ra-
ia to each individual in the coun
try to 81. This immense reduc-
ton has vastly added to the liza
bilities Of all persons who were
in debt, 1t has shruuk the val
ne of property from one third to
one half. 1t has severely injured
the fortunes of large majority OF
of the people of the country. 1t
has brought hard times upon US
Money was not too plenty at tn
close of the wal. Nobody asked
for a contraction and diminution
of the currency, butthe bondhold
,ers, who desire to make their
bonds as good as gold. The Ad-
ministration, with a shameful
subservience to the moneyed in
terest, ~prodeced, perhaps, by the
appliances of corruption, has
struck a deadly blow at the pros
perity of the people. While CON
has held business in b
vice, the taxes of the nation have
been doroled aud trebled. AS
the ability to pay was vastly les
s ,ned the demand for payment
was increased in the same proper
ton.
