LETTER FROM A FARMER.
Excellent Crop Prospects Some Sensible views
In Relation to Platforms and Finance.

To the Editors of The RICK Island Argus:
/ have no special news to communicate.
From the appearance Of the country at this
time. the crops look more than ordinarily
promising this year, with the single excep-
tion of the products of the orchard which
will be limited to scanty supply for home
consumption; but small grain, and corn,
from present appearances, will not disap-
point any reasonable expectation OF apro-
fitabIe Weld to the farmer. 30 you see the
producer has nothing to complain OF IN this
direction. Nature has done her work no
bly where she has been properly seconded
Well, we have;two platforms in thetheld
and men put upon them for the suffrages
Of the people this fall, but so far no hon
est expression has been made on the hnan-
Lcial ouestion. If either convention was IN
favor of honest money they could easily
have said so in words that could not have
been mistaken. OF course no one can be
surprised at the following:
''Tbat we reaffirm the declaration OF
the National Republican Convention of
1872, in favor of return to specie pay
ments at the earliest practicable day.
Ye Gods but that is thin. When, with
in the next generation, does any one sup
pose that the 'prdctacdbte day would
come to resume, in the estimation Of Nor
ton, Logan, Oglesby and the rest of the In
flation crew who are in favor of stamping
rascality on bits of paper and then flood
ing the country with it, as though the in,
vestigation had not already made the
people sufficiently familiar with it?
But the Peoples Convention had not the
precedence of previous lying, and if it was
in favor of honest money why did it not
say so? While there is much in the plat.
form made by that convention that's good
it appears to me very much as though
some of the old political scalawags had
something to do with the financial plank il
it. | cannot believe that the people who
have been outraged so much by dishonest
money can be in favor of affording still ad
ditional opportunities to monopolies tc
swindle them Of the honest product OF
their labor.
4 do not pretend to understand the fnan.
cial problem sufficiently to decide whether
gold and silver are the best standards OF
values that could be selected, nor is such
decision necessary. Those metals are the
world s standard of value, and that they
will remain so for some time to come is
equally certain. On the other hand, put
ting pictures and certain figures on a piece
of paper and calling it dollar, does In nj
sense make 1t one, nor even the represent
alive of one, unless it can at all times be
exchanged for real dollar On any othel
principle than au absolute specie basis
banks of issue are simply Incorporated in
situations of rascality, for the purpose Of
confdencing the people out o, th~:. marc
earnings. FARMER.

Dyspepsia Is the most perplexing Of all
human ailments. Its symptoms are al
most infinite in their variety, and the fo-
Torn and respondent victims of the disease
often fancy themselves the prey, in turn. of
every known malady. This is due,in part
to the close sympathy which exists between
the stomach and the brain, and in part al
so to the fact that any disturbance of the
digestive functions necessarily disorders the
liver, the bowels and the nervous svsteu.
