Current Notes.

The defeat of the Alen-C Cary ticket in Ohio
would do more to reassure the people than
the failure OF score of sgreenback" conven-
tions.-N. Y. Eoening Post.
The ''granger" idea of the right mode Of
raising public revenue may be expressed thus
clay taxes, three or four fold, on all proper

Old Shepard Leffier, Democratic candidate
for Governor of Iowa, has been clearly con-
victed of mileage grab. His friends tried to
show that, in the days when he was a Con-
gresham, the shortest route to Washington
was by water; but the scofing Republican
editors say it would be impossible for him to
travel by the water-reute in December.
William Allen remarked ruefully yesterday,
mo further news from Georgia? That's too
bad. What did those Internal whites make
the arrests so soon for? Telegraph 'em to let
the niggers go, aud arm every mothers son
of 'em with torch and rifle. I'll stand the
expense. Something's got to be done."-
Rochester Democrat.
Senator Thurman has great deal to an
swer for. His one speech in the Ohio CAM
paign has converted the hard-money Democ-
racy of the East, and taught them to believe
that the fortunes of the party and those Of
old Bill Allen are bound together. Their
opinions may not affect the campaign in
Ohio to any appreeiable degree, but the
course of the party in the Presidential wear
will be Influenced by them. If Bill Allen
should win, the Democracy would be COM
mitted to imitation.
The Cincinnati Enquirer states that the
Hon. W. S. Groesbeck, one of the ablest
Democrats in Ohio, is not taking part in the
present campaign because he,has not been
and will not be Invited to do so. The same
paper states that the notorious blatherskite
Communist, Trevellick, the professional
''workingman" is doing splendid work for
the Democratic initiation ticket. Is the an
cient Democratic party reduced to this |!
Groesbeck rejected to make room for Tre-
vellick. Why not substitute Dan Rice for
Thurman ?-Chicdgo Tribune.

AT a time when the government is inviting
the world to buy its bonds, and is endeavor.
ing to fund them at lower rate of interest
the Ohio Democrats are demanding repudia-
ton, are insisting upon policy which will
make the bonds an undesirable investment at
any rate of interest, are denouncing the
holders of them as thieves. The success OF
the Ohio Democracy is ardently wished for
and labered for by the argus. If this is not
assaulting the national credit, what is?

A SIGNIFICANT change is that of the In
dianapolis Sentinel, which has come out for
the rag money heresy. As the Sentinel is
the personal organ of Governor Hendricks ii
becomes evident that that politician has con.
cluded to take up the position of his brethren
in Ohio in favor of expansion and repudia
ton. Thus leading hard-money Democrats
one by one, are going over to the advocacy o.
soft-money in anticipation of the action o.
their national convention next wear.

The Argus has never yet boasted of its
new recruit, the Hon. William D. Kelley
who has declared in favor of the election OF
Allen in Ohio and for the Democratic doc
trlne of repudiation. 1t still tells its readers
that Mr.. Kelley is Republican, and says
the same of that other eminent convert

THE argus is right in saying that stcredit is
but another name for onfdence-confidence
in the unhesitating determination to meet
every pecuniary obligation dollar for dollar al
maturity, and in the ability to do it," In
1868 the argus assailed that credit or conf,
dence by proposing to pay the national debt
not dollar for dollar, but in promises to paw
in deprecated paper currency.

cy brought about by reasonable Democrats,
the present financial system was adopted.
The emergency is now passed, and the Re-
publicans are endeavoring 10 reform the
currency system. In that endeayor they are
opposed by the Democrats. The Democrats
have made the issue, have forced it upon the
attention of the country, and they cannot es-
cape the contest now by belittling the impor-
tance of the question.

THE argus reader should bear in mind that
the editor declares in effect that in making a
case against its political opponents, it will
only use that part of the facts, which, to use
his own words. "wll help prove our case.''
Just bear this in mind when reading Argus'
statements in capital letters.

THERE IS NO DEATH.-If it be true
that Nature abhors a vacuum, 1t is
equally true that the Great Creator alb
hors death and glories in life. There
is really no such thing as death-the
term is a misnomer, usedto designatethe
changes which occur in life. Life, eter-
nal life, is created by the laws OF Al
mighty will-power, whichare as immut-
able in their application as is the exist
ence of the Creator himself. When
God made life, he made everything
necessary to sustain it, but left it for
mans progressive intelligence to dis
cover, convert and utilize. Goodmedl-
cine is to the ailing physique what good
fuel is to the expiring flame the better
the fuel the quicker the tire--the bet
ter the medicine, the quicker comes re-
lief from pain. CALIFoRSIA VINEGAR
BTrrERs is life's elixir for old or young.
Use this medicine properly and you will
live to a good old age without those
physical ailments which make seventy
years a burden. 10

Uses OF HAIR.

Gentlemen who pride themselves Oh
their luxuriant boards will take comfort
in knowing that the mustache IS q natu-
raj respirator, defending the lungs
against the inhalation OF cold and dust.
It is a protection of the face and throat
against cold, and is equally II warm
climates a safeguard for those parts
against excessiveheat. The mustaches
of blacksmiths show by their color the
dust which they stop as q natural res
pirator, and, which, if inhaled, would
be injurious. The mustache IS bene-
fetal to those who follow the trades OF
millers, bakers, masons, to workers III
metal, etc. Full boards are said to be
a defense against bronchitis and sore
throat. 1t is asserted that the sappers
and miners of the French army, whoare
noted for the size and beauty OF their
boards, enjoy a special immunity from
affections OF this nature. The growth
of hair has been recommended to per-
sons liable to take cold easily.

CHARLES BRADL4EGH.

The distinguished English orator,
Charles Bradlaugh, lectured at the
Grand Opera House, Chicago, recently,
hi5 subject being "Republicanlsm III
England" Reviewing in detail the
development of republican sentiment
in England, the speaker SAID thai a
republic II that country was not near;
had he the power by raising his handto
establish it to-day, he would not do SO.
There was yet too much ignorance and
poverty; for a republic was Impossible
while people were ignorant and under
fed.
Mr.. Bradlaugh also showed by figures
how the present form of government
existed, and their financial state OF
ah.irs. The increase of taxation IN =
wears was from less than sc, 0O0, 900 to
SIG, 900, 900; during the present reign,
from $40, 900. 600 it had increased to
e76, 600, 600. Seventy years ago the
landed proprietors of England and
Wales received G22, 800, 900 a year; to-
dav, for the same property, they receive
more than GlOO, 000, 900 sterling. On
the f22, OO0, 900 a year they paid then
g., 900, 900 and upwards of land-tax, and
on the e1OO, 600, 900 they paid less than
81 600, 900 of land tax. Two hundred
years CO., land in England paid two
ffths of all the taxes, and to-day 1t
paws less than one s~eventy-sixtn part
of it. The national debt had increased
from E36, 600, 900 to $500, 600, OOO.
This, he said, was q mortgage on the
work of the people yet unborn, and
none of it fer liberty, honor or glory.
The real question in England, how
ever, was the landed proprietors. Less
than 200 families owned one-half OF En-
gland, half Of ireland, and three-fourths
of Scotland. The Duke OF Sutherland
alone owned a great part Of Scotland,
and the Duke OF Buccleugh owned half
q million acres of land in Scotland, and
other mobiles had a life interest IN H.
600, 600 acres of land in England capa-
bic of cultivation, which was devotedto
deer-parks fer these landed a~ristocrats
If they asked him what had all that TO
do with the republican movement, lie
would say that land was the territorial
aristocracy. 1t owned the House Of
Lords it stopped every measure OF re-
demption it had locked up the school
doors by its opposition to education.
1t prevented the masses Of the people
from becoming instructed by the taxes
it kept upon knowledge. This was the
power which sheltered itself by the
throne.
