Drakcsvil1e, has been robbed on several du-
fcrcnt occasions OF money by man named
LATHAM, tho Inst robbery being committed
Aug. /, and being supplemented by
The unsuccessful crime of arson. Hnv-
ing hidden his relf in the woods,
he was detected Inst Wednesday, through his
froquont visits to one Of the places Of de-
roxt, md confessed oil his mnletactions.
Then, upon his guiding tI,c1n 10 tho various

with the lesson deeply impressed upon his

until the e1citament subsidies. II the facts
DO rs they arc stated in our dispatch. Judge

to indicate that the Jury Of the sicinage
have reached tho almost unanimous conclusion
to withdraw their patronage from the Fair

LEY, an ex-member of tho Republican party,
who Inns recently allied hilnsolf with tho rag-
money Democracy OF Ohio, is to epoak In
Chicago. We presume llo will rppeat his
youngstown Incendiary haranguo md his
Youngstown catalogue Of fa1se assorsions. II
ho docs, wc propose 10 convict the Hon. W.
D. Il. Of b1atana asininity and intentional Of
unintcntional falsehood. Let us catalogue o
fow facts, tho proof Of which ia ready If his
apeocl, denies them:
If ho snys TINT contraction las cnused tho
hard tirnes, Tho assertion viii bo false, be-
cause there has been expansion instead Of
contraction, as the records show.
Il ho snys .hnt imitation will cause bottsr
timos, the assertion will bo false, beoause wo
have It now 10 redundancy.
II he says TINT Congress can IN any way
increase the legal-tondar iasue beyond $780,
0Oo, eco, tho Insertion will be false, because
the Supreme Court would decide such issus
in tin,e Of pcaos 10 be unconstitutional and
void.
II he Bsxys TINT m intcrconvortib1o paper
bond, bcaring 3.G5, or 3G5, or any other
scrip interest, will bo panacen for our flnar'-
cal ills, the assertion will not only be falso,
| but ridiculous,
II ho denies that IN irret1oemable paper
currency Inns always led to national disaster
and dishonor, the denial will be false, for
history is against him.
| II he denies that the imitation OF tho green
back cu,roncy means anything but hnal repu-
distion, gonerh bankruptcy, and re-estab.
1ishment Of stato banks Of forty different
kinds, his denih will bs false.
II be saya that an ultra protective tariff Il
beneficial to tho consumers Of America, that
il, the American people, their exporience
proves it to be false,
II ho says that such tariff II beneficial Il
the producers OF America, that is, tha Amor
can people, the panic Of 1873 and tho hazt
times will refuto such assertions.
| II he tries, as he did at Youngstown, to in
cito labor to "clutcl capital by the throat,
ho will be regarded by ovcry respectable maj
il, Chicago rs dnstardly domagogus aud
blatant Communist.
