A LONT LE1UERNIIIP.

Mr.. William Allen and Mr.. Allen G. Thur
man of Ohio are two gentlemen toward whom
fate has generally seemed to wear a smiling
face. They have been prospercd far beyond
the average in moral, material, and social re-
spccts. They have attained high position, con-
siderable wealth, and excellent repute among
their fellow-mcn. But 10 life, said an ancient
philosopher, can be called fortunate until 1t
ends II is highly probable that this year will
decide whether the prosperity OF these two
gentlemen rep0scd upon u sufficient and salts
factory basis of character. For the moment
thcy are internationally in deep waters. a
few weeks ago it looked as if Oho might fur
nish the Democratic party its candidate
for the Presidency next year. Some ludlclouS
people thought Mr. Thurman would answer
admirably for that purpose Others, not SO
iUdicions, thought well of Mr.. Alien. When
the Democrats of Cuyah0ga County came to-
ccthcr and passed their resolutions and ap-
pointed their delegates to the State COnyen-
ton it looked more than ever as if the tide
was in favor of this emincntly respectable
finn. The CuyaAOga platform was IN all
respects better than that o. the Republicans in
Ohio, more Ou,sp3kcn, terse ana fearless ID is
assertion Of sound principles. 1t was framed
by several OF the strongest men III the state,
Judges Banney and Spaulding and Mr. Payne.
1t was not unrea enable to expect that this
declaration of principles might be adopted at
Columbus. 1t woald in that case have secured
the liberal and Independent floating vote all
over the State, aud although it might have
driven a few OF the more violent intatiOniSts
from the ticket, it would have carried the
State for the Democrats by a fair majority,
and would have gone very far to give Ohio
the controlling voice in next years Presidential
nominations.
This is all out of sight now. The enemies
Of Mr.. Thurman could not prevent the re-
nomination of Allen, which had long been a
fcrcg0ne conclusion. But they were strong
enough and active enough to pack the Com
mittee on Resolutions with infatiOnists. who
placed the old gentleman on a platform which
will ruin him out of Ohio and disgrace every
one who supports it in the eyes of the Eastern
Democracy. BY resOlute effort in the Con-
venton this might possibly have been pre-
vented. But it would have been at the risk
of disturbance, and every one knows
how much more ready rufiian is for fracas
than a responsible person. Messrs. Payne,
Ranney, Spaulding and Thurman, and their

WUlT SHALL BE Done ABOCr TIi


There comes UP from every part or tia
country such clamor for an immediate inyestl-
cation of the Reports Put in Circulation by a
Mister Marsh that 40 officer of the Admins
tration or member OF the Indian Ring can hug
the dear deluson to his soul that this thing
ia going TO blow over. The inquiry must 60
on at once and it must he thorough. There
must DO no whitewashins and no halfway
work. And AIe-srs. Dclano and Smith
may as we'll understand at once that
an investigation by the very persons
implicated in the disclosures viii not do.
When the Secretary of tho Interior undertook
to set up a court TO try the indictment against
himself we expressed the belief that after
going through the farce OF appointing respect
able citizens who could not or would not
serve, he would end, if he could, b. intrGst-
ing the inquiry to close friends of the Indian
RIM Of the three gentlemen who have
finally been selected we know too little 20
express Il positive opinion. Bnt it i certain
that thcy do not command public con-
iidcnce. They are not men of such conspicuous
position that their Judgment carries weight
and two Of the three are strongly suspected
ly persons familiar with Indian affairs of IN
undue parthiljy iof thc lhulah hlhS' we arc
willing to give them credit for the best inien-
tons ~ long as they allow lis to do so; but
meanwhile it Is the simple tfnth that the pub
lie not knowing them, does not trust them.
The proper person to direct This inquiry is
the President. Gen. Grant expresses a deter
mination to break up The fraud. ia the Indian
Department, and We do NOT question his sin
ccrity. He has shown in other cascS an earnest
desire to reform abu,e, which have diacrcditcl
his administration. 1t lies in his power to DO
the country great service now 10y taking MP
this investigation and pushing it straight
through. 1t lies in his power at The same time
to do an important service TO himself. Does he
not see his double opportunity!

Mr. Charles Rcadc discusses the question Of
copyright with the warmth and energy of con-
yction, and no one who knows what the style
of this remarkable writer is when his indigna-
ton is aroused will need urging to turn to his
letter in this mornings TRIBUNE. 1t is noble
specimen of good strong writing, and in the
main of good hard sense. Some of our read
ers will he disposed to quarrel with Mr.. Readcs
incidental estimate Of the relative Importance
of the various fine arts, but nobody can dis
pute the truth of what he says about authors
crying wrongs.
The condition of our copyright laws is a
national scandal for which there is no excuse
and has long ceased to be any serious defense.
Nothing stands in the way of reform except
the indifference of Legislators and the industry
of lobby. Unlike most Englishmen. however,
who have written upon this subject, Charles

Reade does not throw all the blame upon
niratical American publishers and the Sluggish

ness of tho American public conscience. "All this
"injudicious knavery," says he, Eat home and
"abroad, had its root in England. 1t was here
"the words were first spoken and written
(which, being thoughtlessly repeated by
Statesmen, by Judges by writers of law
"books, and now and then by publicists have
"gradualy deluded the mind and blunted the
"conscience of the Anglo-Saxon" But If
the fault is not altogether ours, we suffer a
special injury which We do not remember to
have seen described anywhere so clearly
as in this letter. The English market
is not seriously affected by American
piracy, but "the remuneration of tie estaD-
"lished American author is artificially low
tered by the crushing competition OF stolen
goods, and, as for the young American
"authOr, however promising his genius, he Is
"generally nippcd in the bud. It this
"moment many an American who, under just
claws, would have been great author is
"second-rate lawyer, or a second-rate farmer,
"Or Il third-ratc pdrSOn."
Mr.. Rcade will continue the discussion in
other letters, and we do not despair of his
arolsing at last the public conscience which so
many appeals have failed to waken.

We publish this morning some letters from
the advocates of Mes,ls. Carey's and Kelley s
$50 scheme OF doublc-hcaded iucdccmable
paper money, and we proceed to state some
objections to the project:
]. From Mr.. Carey down there is not an adj
yocate of his scheme who will give Il logical
and ineligible definition of the word dollar.
it is impossible for person with clear head to
know what dollar really is and not sec that the
$50 breed of currency is sham and a
fraud BY the Constitution and laws of the
United States the dollar is 25i5 grains of
gold OF standard fneness, manufactured and
stamped by the Government. That is the only
constitutional legal tender for debts of more
than five dollars. The gTccnbacks are simply
the Governments promises 10 pay these guam
titles of gold, or some equivalent which the
creditor may freely consent to accept. As the
Government refuses to keep its promise, and
as it has issued more substitutes for real
money than the country can employ at par
yalne, tho grcenback promise TO pay 25i5
grains of standard gold passes in the market
for only 22i5 grains, more or less.
ii. The greenback being a pllin promise in
black and white to pay gold dollars, it cannot
by any exercise of ingenuity be twisted into
anything else. To refuse the holders of green
