THE ''more money" Democratic cry means
more promises to pay. Every greenback dol
lar is such a promise, and therefore every
greenback issued is by so much an increase of
the public debt. If it is not, these promises
are worthless They are to be redeemed some
Treasury. Now the more of these promises
there are issued the more the more they de-
preciate in value While, therefore, the pub
lie debt is increased to the full amount of the
face value of each additional greenback, the
Government receives in return therefore only
the amount of the face value less the amount
of depreciation. That depreciation is dead
loss to the Treasury, and the amount of that
loss is proportionate to the amount of initiation
of the currency.
The case is precisely the same as that of the
Five-twenty bonds issued during the war
These bonds must now all be redeemed in coin,
at their full face value, although for large
proportion of them the Governmsnt did not
receive fifty cents on the dollar. A great ma
tional exigency made this sacrifice necessary.
The Democratic party demands that this loos
ing process shall now be repeated by the issue
of non-interest bearing bonds, that Is to say
greenbacks, at a time when there is no exigen-
cy requiring it.
The taxpayers must suffer great loss and
the public debt be immensely increased if this
clamor shall be needed. Are the people of
Ohio in favor of this? Under the false pre-
tense of producing more money do they want
to have the Government printing presses set
to work in printing deprecated promises
which must be redeemed after awhile from
the results of their sweat and toll? If they
desire this they should vote for imitation, for
that is just what it means. Every greenback
is a sacred bond to be redeemed sometime, or
repudiated. There is no choice between pay
ing its full amount in sold coin and national
dishonor. As between these the Democratic
party has displayed preference for the latter.
1t has already proposed payment of the Five
twenties in greenbacks, but in what it would
pay the greenbacks themselves it has never
suggested. Probably its plan is to pay the
bonds in1greenbacks and the greenbacks in
nothing. Either that or they are to be paid
in sold. gold out of the Treasury, and the tax
payers robbed in order to do ito. s. Jour.

Republican Platform.

The following platform was unanimously
adopted, without discussion:
The Republicans of Ohio, in Convention as
sembled, re-affiming the cardinal principles OF
their organization, which have become re-
eeived maxims of policy, State and national,
drclare on specific points the series OF senti-
ments following:
First-The States are one as a nation, and
all citizens are equal under the laws, and en-
titled to their fullest protection.
Second-That the policy of finance should
be steadily pursued which, without unnecessa-
~ shock to business or trade, will ultimately
equalize the purchasing capacity of the coin
and paper dollar.
Third-We are in favor of a tariff for reve-
nue., with incidental protection to American
industry.
Fourth-We stand by free education, our
public school system, the taxation of all for
its support, and no division of the school
fund
Fifth-Under our republican system of
government there should be no connection,
direct or indirect, between Church and State
and we oppose all legislation in the interest of
any particular sect. Upon this subject we
should not fail to profit by the experience Of
foreign governments, where the efforts of the
Church to control the State con Stitute an evi
Ol great magnitude: ana enQanSers the power
and prosperity of the people.
Sixth-We demand such revision of the
patent laws as will relieve industry from the
oppression of monopolies in administration.
Seventh-A grateful people can never cease
to remember the services of our soldiers and
sailors, and it is due to them that iberality
and generosity should obtain in the adjustment
of pay and bounties.
Eighth-That we demand that the public
domain shall be scrupulously reserved for oc-
cupancy by actual settlers
Ninth-The determination of the govern
ment to collect the revenue, and prevent and
punish frauds, has our unqualified approval.
Tenth-That the power of municipal corpo-
rations to create debts should be restricted,
and local and other expenditures should be so
reduced as to diminish taxation.
Eleventh-The observance of WashingtOn's
example, in retiring at the close of second
Presidential term, will be in the future, as it
has been in the past, regarded as a fundamen-
tai rule in the unwritten law Of the republic.
Twelfth-The distinguished success of his
which, to the fame of the pa
triot and soldier has added that of the capa-
bic and judicious statesman, entities President
Grant to the gratitude of his countrymen.

5olves the issue of fifty or sixty millions Of
greenbacks, to pay the difference between the
deprecated value of currency and the appre-
ciated price of the coin-bearing bonds. This
would be an addition to the debt of the nation
and it would have to be paid some time or
other unless we are going to move straight
forward TO reputation. Such an act would
be grossly dishonorable because a greenback
is promise to pay dollar on demand, and
the issue of millions more of them while that
promise is unfulflled is simply species Of
Reputation; because Congress has recorded
solemn pledges that no more than S400, 900, 900
shall ever be issued, and that they shall be re-
deemed in 1879; because every new issue will
force the value down as certainly as the sun
shines, and every creditor in the country Will
be robbed if the notes are made legal-tender
for debts One immediate result of such
policy would be to unsettle values so that no
man could tell what a greenback would be
worth or what it would purchase month
ahead, and this would disturb business and in
troduce an element of uncertainty which
would bear with especial hardship upon every
poor man, for all dealers would add to the
price of their wares enough to pay for the
risk they ran of the money depreciating while
in their hands,
These are the considerations which should
have weight with people who are unnerved by
the trouble in California. The history of the
world shows that a legitimate and honest bust
ness, conducted with specie currency, is the
only safe business. Reckless speculation pro-
duces ruin with any currency, but speculation
is the first-born child of paper money, which
has caused more disasters and misery than any
other deluson that was ever born of the imagi-
nations of men. The universal rule in trade
is that value shall be given for value, and
paper note has no value unless it actually re-
presents gold coin, which is intrinsicaliy
valuable and will purchase the fruit of mems
toll throughout the civilized world. We
should almost despair of free government if
the intelligent American people should deter
mine to accept any wild scheme that is based
upon any other theory Phil Bulletin.

Reasons Why Ohio Democrats
Should Not Vote this Fall.

l. Because the currency plank of the Dem
ocratic platform is anti-Jacksonian, un-Demo
cratic, is secuted and fiouted by the ables
Democratic journals of every other State in
the Union, and is utterly repudiated by the
brains of the party in Ohio itself.
,. Because Senator Thurman and Governor
Allen were both elected and now holu office
on a platform which demanded an expedition:
return to specie payments, and because Ran
ney, Payne, Thurman and every Democrat
gubernatorial candidate, except Pendleton,
ever since the Democratic party was party,
has been in favor of Hard Money, and opposed
not only to initiation, but to paper currency OF
all kinds whatsoever.
B. Because Thurman, Ranney, Payne,
Pugh, Ward, Armstrong, and every Demo,
crat who has held State Office except Allen,
remain true to the Democratic creed of Hard
Money, and opposed TO the Democratic plat
! form so far as it relates to that subject.
4. Because the currency plank of the Dem
ocratic platform is not Democratic at all, but
is the work of those old Wings Campbell and
Ewing, who seek torule or ruin the Democrat
ic party, for their own purposes.
5. Because Ewing who is the real author
of the currency plank in the Democratic plat
form of 1875, so late as 1873 declared that the
mission of the Democratic party was ended
and its capacity for good was exhausted; and
because his present prominence in the party is
due TO the fact that the platform has repudia-
ted the party, and has in that mode made it
possible for Ewing to appear in 1875 as a
Democratic leader.
6. Because Allen has shown the humiliat-
ing weakness and hypocrisy of the demagogue
in sacrificing his lifelong convictions for the
for the sake of a barren hope of office, and
because Thurman, and select few of the
leaders of the party who know better, have
been forced by local pressure alone to shame
lessly swallow their principles, in the elusive
hope of party success.
Z. Because the currency plank of the Dem
ocratic platform was conceived in fraud and
brought forth in iniquity; because its pretense
of retrenchment and reform has been explod-
ed by two years of the most corrupt manage
ment of the State government ever known in
Ohio; because its candidate for Governor isa
self-criminated demagogue who has turned his
coat for office; because its candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor is political adventurer who
has been in and out of every political party
that has existed since his birth, is common
liar and slanderer, stirrer up of strife, Com
cause of more other reasons than we have time
to mention in detail, between now and the day
of election.-[O. S. Journal.

AT the late Association for the Advance
ment of Science it was decided that inland
salt lakes and seas were simply remnants Of
the ocean which once covered the continent,
and which in receding left all the basins filled
with salt water. Where these basins had ma
tural outlets, drainage and fresh water feeders
in time rendered the water fresh. Where
there is no outlet the lakes remain salt.

4 CURIOUS incident in the career of Guten-
berg, the inventor of printing, not mentioned
in any of his biographies has been discovered
in an old italian manuscript, recently brought
to Paris bya monk. The manuscript states
that Gutenberg was tried at Mayence in 1922
for the assassination of his uncle, and was only
acquitted after long imprisonment.

He took the evening train up from
and in looking through the
cars discovered female sitting alone
in seat, and it instantly occurred to
him that she might be lonely. A veil
dropped over her face, but there was
no reason to suppose that she was not
good looking, and he gallantly raised
his hat and sat down beside her, re-
marking, with a lovely smile: 1T is

INJURED reply, but the accent was cap
tivating, and he was won at the start.
He was practiced in all the arts of
polite tactics, and spoke to her softly of
this great desolate world, with appro-
pirate illusions to human hearts. He
told her how he had hungered and
thirsted after the affection of q true
heart, and had yearned to feel the
breath of the heavenly flame of love.
No. he sihged, he had no.wife, no
one to love and caress him and mend
his suspenders; and when he inquired
if she was treading the path of life
single and alone, she murmured so
pensively and sad that he felt compel
led to put his arm on the back of the
seat lest she should fall out OF the

They reached Norwalk, and Just as
the train stopped he heard q grating,
kissing sound close to his ear, and then
words: You villain, YOU old hypo-
critical SINNER, III make you think
you've been struck By breath OF heav-
enly flame, you old OWL
He looked around just far enough to
get glimpse of pair Of flashing eyes
and the face of his wife, who had muir
INJURED so fondly to him along the
journey. A sudden spasm seized him,
but he managed to accompany her from
the train, and as they moved into the
darkness toward home her flashing eyes
lit up his pale face with spectral effect.
