The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1875-02-16

wThe message to day is undoubt
edly meant as an endeavor by the Presi
dent to induce Congress to repudiate
the Poland report, though made by an
extreme Republican partisan, and to
prepare the public mind for action, af
ter Congress adjourns, similar to thai
of Sheridan at New Orleans. The mes
sage is construct as declaring the set
tied purpose of the President to revo
lutionize Arkansas, whether Congress
sustains him or not, and is regarded by
the Democrats as the boldest and most
audacious stride toward military des
potism that Grant has yet made. The
feeling produced by it among Demo
cratic Senators is one of depression, un
easiness and, alarm. They regard the
situation as critical in the highest de
gree, and recognize desperate purpose
on the part of the President to maintain
himself in power by extreme measures
and by forcing conflict with the South
ern people. In this way he expects te
awaken the passions and the old wal
feeling of the North, and under cove
Of pretended necessity, the result ol

The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1875-02-16

H-Republican politicians are a little
unreliable as prophets. At least it will
scarcely endanger ones future welfare to
doubt their infallibility.
The keynote of the campaign last Fall
was, that the success of tue Democrats
would ruin the credit Of the country. The
fact turned out to be that gold did not go
up and that an immense amount of our
five per cent bonds, which had been coax
ing for buyers. were taken in Europe.
But for fear the Democrats would not
speedily provide for areturn to specie
payments, they took advantage of their
brief lease Of power to pass financial
measure Which was, to bring about re-
sumption with "certainty, security and
-celeriiy,p in spite of the Democrats
I Their golden visions are not being re.
allied. On the heels Of their great finan.
cial measure followed such rise in gold
as had not been known since the panic.
What they claimed would ruin the pub
lie credit seemed to rather improve it;
and when they pass law to bring gold
down to par, they find that right at thai
point it commences to go up.
As financiers, or any other kind o.
sees, they do not insrire confidence.
