THE organ is attempting TO interpo-
late a new plank in the Radical plat
form. 1t asserts that Bill Allen is q
pagan-that che is Pantheist," and
scouts and ridicules putting God in
the Constitution. We had supposed
that the religious war waged by the
party Of all the piety, purity, and
patriotism, was to be confined entirely
to the Catholics, but it seems that il
is to be extended to all those who are
not of the household of Protestant
faith. Whatever may be Governor
Aliens religious views, we have never
heard of his attempting to enforce
them upon others, or denying to every
citizen the right to the full and free en-
joyment OF his own religious opinions
Even the Republican Convention has
not deemed it advisable as yet to re-
solve in favor of quitting God in the
Constitution" Why not2 Do they.

The Democratic Mass Meeting a,

The Democratic Mass Meeting al
Akron, on Thursday last, was rouser,
one OF the largest and most enthusias
tic ever held in old Summit. The
crowd was estimated at from 5000 to
5000 people. The speeches of Csssius
N. Clay and Governor Hendricks
were listened to with marked atteu-
tion and cannot fail to produce . good
impression. That of Governor Hen
bricks is pronounced by men Of all
parties as the best political speech ever
delivered in that comfy. In the eve
ming there was a grand torch-light
procession in which 500 lamps were
carried, and the meeting which fol-
lowed was as large rs that in the da,
time. 1t was addressed by the same
speakers as in the afternoon, and Mr..
Schiiling, of Cleveland, who spoke
both in German and English, and made
q most capital speech.

THIS is what Morton, whom the
Radicals haye employed to travel the
State and advocate the cause of the
money monopolists, said in a speech
in the Senate No longer ago than the
oath of March last:
"Currency should grow with the
country. When the business of the
country has sutgrown the volume Of
currency the effect is the same as con-
traction. The UOlume Of the currency
not being sufficient to transact the
business of the country at the prcrail-
ing prices Of property and labor, EN-
barTassment and destruction are The
result, and all prices are gradually
reduced so that girin amount Of
currency sDiH pay for more property
and labor" ~
The Democratic press. [volume] (Ravenna, O. [Ohio]) 1868-1901, 1875-09-30

The Cleveland Leader. and other
Radical papers deny that there has
been any contraction in the volume OF.
the currency since sthe close of the
war, and boldly assert that there Is.
more currency in the country now
than at any former time since 1865. Ii
is certainly very strange that there
should be such UNIVERSAL complain,
throughout the country y'ofi d scarcit,
of money if the assertion OF these
Radical politicians be true.i Do the,
mean to tell their followers that Presi-
dent Grant lied in his annual message
10 Congress in December: 1873, whei.
he said "lN VIEW OF THE LARGE
ACTUAL CONTRACTION THAI
HAS TAKEN PLACE IN THE
CURRENCY" &c? They kLow full
well that Grant then spoke from III,
record and told the truth. They know
that the volume of currency which
the people used with which to transact
their business is not half what it wa:
then. As further, evidence of the fal-
sity of the radical assertions that there
has been NO contraction, we quote the
folio wing from Redp.th's History o.
The United States, page 40: ~,
In the autumn Of 1873 occurred one
of the most disastrous financiaI panics
known in the history Of the Unitec
States. The alarm was given 10y the
failure OF the great banking house OF
Jay Cooke s. Co.. of Philadelphia.
Other failures followed in rapid sue
cession. Depositors everywhere hur
ried to the banks and withdrew Their
money and securities. Business was
suddenly parpi, zed, and many months
elapsed before confidence was restor-
ed 10 enable merchants and banker.

trade. The leading cause of the panic
was the scarcity of money yOccasiOned

currency, ,,ohich had been reduced from

The fact is, no one ever contended till
since the present contest that there had
not been large dimunition in.the cur
rency. The settled policy of the Rad :.
ical party is resumption, and they
know that there can be no resumption
without further material contraction,
which means the enhancement of the
purchasing powers of the rich mans
dollars and the decrease of the wages
of W orking men every where. Itmeans
making the rich richer and tha! poor
poorer. 1t means the enslavealent OF
labor by the capital Of the country. Ii
means an indefinite continuance of the
disasters that have fallen upon US but
in more intensified form. In fine, it
means the utter gHin OF the industrial
interests of the nation. IL you would

Mr.. Beecher's Thanksgiving SER
mon discussed the question of tho
Common Schools, and notably the
point whether the Bible should be
read in them. lie declared unqual-
ifiediy against it. There is no rea-
son, he argued, why the Jew should
be compelled to listen to or pay for
the reading of the New Testament,
which he did not believe; why the
Roman Catholic should be forced to
have his children read, or listen to
the reading of, the Protestant YER
sion of the Bible, which he did not
think correct or why, in localities
where the majority was the other
way, the Protestant children should
be forced, in the same way to read
the Douay Bible. In a word, he in
sisted that the common school
should be godless-just as the hat
ter's shop or the grocery stole,
which we sustain is goddess, and
for the came reason, to-wit, that
their business is to furnish certain
limited and specific necessaries of
life, not to teach religion or become
Instruments of propagandism. Mr..
Beecher unquestionably read Alright
the signs of the times in declaring
the American people capable of a
grand enthusiasm on the subject of
the common schools. They may be
now on the very verge of it.-N. Y.

Better than Pistols or Law
suits.

An ambitious little railroad town
in this county was shaken from stem
to stern by a society ''happening"
which recently occurred in her
midst. This event involved so wide
q departure from the beaten track
of human custom, and divine man.
of the community was greatly shock
ed, and even the gossips lifted up
their hands to disclaim against 1t.
There resides in this town DIR. -,
who, until recently, did business as
q druggist. His family consisted OF
o wife and an adopted daughter.
The wife was an amiable lady in the
prime of young womanbood, and
the daughter an intelligent and en-
gaging young woman, who acted as
clerk in her FOSTER fathers drug
store. Boarding with the family
was literary gentleman of cultiva-
ted mind and taste, who occupied a
room in the drug store, where he
devoted much of his time to driv-
ing the quill. The family circle,
composed of these four, moved
along tremendously until Cupid
looked in upon them, and discover
ing latent love in each human breast
he thence began making matches
not of the regulation kind reQuir-
ing four strokes to illumine the
darkness-but that of binding &C.
NAL hearts and hands. The literary
man secretly cherished an ardent
admiration for the doctors wife,
and the doctor more than a fathers
affection for his adopted daughter.
Then followed mutual discovery OF
these facts, q mutual recognition OF
the secret passions, a mutual agree
ment to allow the course of love
TO run smooth" q mutual separa-
ton of the doctor and his wife
eliminating at last in the uniting OF
hands with hearts to suit their
wishes. The doctor gave his wife
to the literary man and accepted the
hand of his own adopted daughter.
They now form two families, the
literary man having gone with his
new made wife to join the grangers
on farm not far distant. IT'S said
the doctor obtained divorce from
the first wife; that the latter mar
riages were legalized in quiet way,
but this, if true, did not prevent the
gossips from using the keen dissect-
ing knife, and the affair awakened a
greater sensation in the town than
anything that has transpired since
the Beecher-Tilton reyelation.-The
Marshalltown Republican.

Winter blowing is better than fall
blowing in this latitude. 1t turns
up many noxious insects, and they
are not in 8 condition to make a re-
treat, and die from the exposure.
The fall rains are supposed to be
over, and don't melt and beat down
and compact the soil. 1t is turned
up fresh, and the freezing and thaw-
ing and pulYerizing process can go
on, to the great advantage of the
land. The teams are now fresh aud

and every week gained now in plow-
ing. puts the farmer ahead that
