NOT Much.

BY the nomination of Tilden, on a ha rl
money platform the Democracy Will complete
" lose Ohio and Indiana, as well as other
States they had hoped to carry The sott-mon-
ey Democracy OF those States are stark mad at
the result, and will probably nearly ell u then,
vote for Hayes and Wheeler, to show their
digust of the action of their own party.-Lakc
City Leader tRcp.)
Lay not that tlattering JUNCTION to your
soul. The sott-money Democrats NAV
be,-nay are,-disgusted because the st.
Louis convention did not 90 far enough
in the path of progress. But ii they are
compelled to chose between the Democ-
racy, who demand the repeal of the Re
sumption Act, and the Republicans who
passed that act and refuse to repeal it,
they cannot hesitate where to cast their
votes.
But they have another choice. They
can vote the Independent Greenback
ticket with PETER COOPER at its head
and thus lay the foundation on which &c
carry the nation in 1880.
Nay more. il PETER COOPER carrie:
Indiana, Illinois and Ohio it will throw
the election into the House OF Repre-
resentatives. and in that event Gov
Hayes will never be president.

PARTISAN SLAVERY.

One of the most melancholy sights in
IN the world is to see an able man, with
some comprehension OF principle, re-
duced to the sad condition of newer of
wood and drawer OF water for some po-
litical party. A sad illustration of this
is the case of Hon. William d. Kelley,
NJ. C. from Philadelphia. Judge Kelley
has been an earnest, ardent, ultra green
backer "a soft-money man OF the soft
est type. But he wanted to GO back to
Congress and to do so, he is compelled to
swallow the hard-money plank of,the Re-
publican platform and abase himself be-
tore the party-leaders. The Philadel-
phia Bulletin. a Republican paper, thus
describes the scene:-
A few weeks ago it was ordained that he
was to be refused denomination by the party
which he had betrayed ana insulted. Filled
with anxiety and terror at the prospect Mr..
Kelley came home, ana for the first time in
many years made personal CANVASS in his
own behalf. His humble attitude, his protes-
tations OF pentence. his promises to reform
and his pteous pleadings for forgiveness, ex-
cited the compassion of the members OF his
party and he was accorded place on the tick
ct.
We are sorry for the Judge. He is an
able man and an honest one; but con-
gressional lite has no charms that could
induce Us to get right down and crawl
in that fashion. We are doubly sorry
for him.

THE MASSACRE ON THE BIG
HORN.

The most terrible event OF all our In
dian campaigns took place the other day
in the valley OF the Yellowstone. The
details are given elsewhere. They are
sickening. Genl. Custer, with small
force Of about 200 men attacked Sioux
village. three miles in length. defended
BY about $500 savage warriors. His en-
tire force per,shed-nos a single s.rag-
gler escaped to tell the tale. Another
large force. under Genl. Reno was sur
rounded. and but tor the timely arrival
OF tho rtay OF Ienl. Terry would
have met the same fate As that which
overlook Custer and his men. Since
that time Genl. Crook has had severe
battle in which he suffered severely.
The Sioux are the bravess and most
warlike OF all our American savages
they have been rolled back for hundreds
Of miles by tho advancing tide Of ciyili-
cation. and they seem determined to
make final Stand in the businesses os

graded himself to an instrument of that sena-
TORS personal resentment, and in the removal
of Yaryan gave notice to all the officers Of his
administration that they must not manifest too
much zeal in the prosecution of offenders who
are protected by United States senators.
1t is such performances as this which are
rapidly extinguishing all respect for Grants
administration, which are gradually educating
the people to rejoice that the fourth Of March
next will see the end of it.
Very well put. But does the Pioneer
Press-Tribune forget that it was Grants
minions who defeated Blaine and united
the opposition to him on Hayes? It the
administration of Grant has become such
stencil what assurance have we that
the same influence will not control Hayes?

4 TRIP TO IOWA.

We had the pleasure of making trip
to Iowa recently. to deliver centennial
Fourth Ct July speech at Usage, in Mitch
ell county, in that state. Usage is one
Of the neatest and most prosperous lit
tie towns we have seen in the west,
filled with an intelligent and enterpris-
ing poulation, and surrounded by re-
gion OF country which is emphatically
the garden of Iowa. We made very
many pleasant acquaintances, and en-
joyed our visit greatly.
But we allude to our trip simply to
state that we found the people of Mitchell
county almost unit in favor of the re-
peal OF the Resumption act and against
contraction of the currency. We spoke
to hundreds upon the subject, and the
testimony was uniform, that ifa canvass
was made and the issue clearly presented
nine-tenths Of the people would vote the
greenback ticket. And some who had
recently travelled extensively in the state
gave it as their opinion that all Iowa felt
the same way. But unfortunately the
party machinery, the newspapers and
the active politicians are devoted to one
or other Of the old parties, and the per-
p.exed people do not know which way to
turn tor relief.
Time may bring some relief from this
state of things, but the prospect is not
encouraging.

OUR THIRD VOLUME.

With this issue the ANTI
enters upon the third year of its exis>
tencc. We hope that during the past two
years it has been of some benefit to the
people of Minnesota.
We begin the new year with very
large subscription list and a liberal adj
vertising patronage. We shall continue
to publish an independent journal in.
dependent Of all rings and parties; and
devoted 10 the real interests of the peo-
pie as we understand them. We hold
ourself accountable to nothing but our
conscience and.our sense of right.
We avail ourself Of this opportuni-
ty to thank our many generous friends,
who,in all parts of the state, have labored
for the success of our paper; and we
trust they will not weary in well-doing.
If they think we are working in the in
terest OF truth and justice they will serve
the good cause most effectually by in
creasing our subscription list. The more
readers we have the more good we can
accomplish.

THE GREAT VEST.

We would commend the following to
the consideration of those Democrats
who have turned Minnesota's Democra-
cy over to New York and Tilden. It is
from the Terre Haute Express:
I'VE have published before in these columns
statistics to show that the masses Of the western
people are better educated, and the western
schools better patronized, than in the east In
Indiana, Ohio, illinois and Michigan there are
fewer illterates and larger school attendance in
proportion to population, than in New Eng
land. This is not an idle boast; it is simple
statement Of the fact taken from the Official
records. The west is more liberal, more toler-
ant, and more enterprising than the east. In
no other part Of the world is the press SO free
and the range Of discussion SO wide. We are
bound less by precedent and custom in the
west; we are closer to nature, we are more un-
trammelled and free. There are bolder thoughts
and more intense life and more vigorous action
lOthe west. The west has furnished the pres
ident OF the United States for sixteen years; it
gave the country almost every great general in
the war. The western armies marched from St.
Louis to the guilt, opening the great river of the
continent, and from Louisville to the sea, cut
ting the Confederacy into fragments, while the
armies Of the east marched from Washington
to Richmond: And Richmond was not taken
until Lee heard the battle-cheers of Sherman 5
men coming up from the rear. The west will
grow in vigor and aggresslveness. She is only
now beginning to fairly understand her
strength. The political reforms Of the future
will have their origin here. The first formid-
able protest against the aggressions Of the mon
ey power comes from the west. Give MS the
currency issue square, and the prairies will
blaze with the fires of new crusade. The is
sue will come. All thinking men feel it intu-
itively that we are on the eve of great events,
that this is the lull before the formation Of new
party lines, and the beginning Of great CAM
paigns. The country bounded and contiguous
to the great western cities is the seat of politc-
al empire i'll this country. The thoughts OF
this people will 90 forth like the soldiers of
Sherman, to sweep the land. The west will be
united from the mountains to the plains and
from the lakes to the gulf in the coming great
battle to dignity and exalt Labor, and to take
from the instrument, Money, its false import
ance and supremacy"
Alas! in this fight, so far, Minnesotalhas
not acted with the great states OF the
west with Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
In her supreme wisdom she allies her
self to the communities OF the Atlantic
coast whose interests are hostile to her
own.
She has aided to postpone the day OF
reform; she cannot avert it.

THE GREENBICk DEMOCRATS.

Some Of our Minnesota Democrats,
whose ideas upon politics are derived
solely from the neer-Press-Tribune,
are unaware ofthe strength OF the green
back element in their own party. To
such We would commend the following
extract from the Cincinnati Enquirer =
In the committee on resolutions at St. Louis
the greeaback cause was backed by Ohio, re-
presenting 293, 900 democratic votes; by Pen
nsylvania, representing o9O,OUU democratic

votes. In the last Presidential election the
democratic party polied $4,000 votes, in

GROSS INJUSTICE.

The following from the New York
Times, tells story OF great injustice -
"A poor seamstress named Bridxet Barry
was arrested yesterday morning and arraign-d
before Justice Duffy, of the Washington Place
Police Court, on the charge of throwing stone
at and breaking the windows of Sewing Ma
chine Company. Several months ago the
seamstress purchased a sewing machine from
the company for sixty dollars, which she
agreed to pay in monthly installments. No,
Icing in a condition to pay the last installment
Of ten dollars when the collector called, the
machine was seized on writ of replevin and
taken back to the warerooms OF the company
The poor woman, eXasperated at this action,
and in her ignorance Of the law knowing nc
remedy by which she could recover the fifty
five dollars paid, wen to the store and smash
ed the French plate glass on the show win-
dows. The Justice, svmpathizing with the
woman on hearing the facts recited above, dis
charged herr
This is another illustration Of the tact
that all our laws arc made in the interest
OF the creditor and against the debtor
This poor woman had invested s55 90 in
that sewing machine. while the company
had but $1,000 in it; and yet the law
permits the $1,000 owned by the creditor
to wipe out the $500 owned by the
debtor. In other words, one dollar
belonging to the machine company out
weighs five dollars belonging to the
seamstress.
This is neither fair nor right. 1t is 8
part of the old barbarism the ieuda
ages: the creditor stands to the debtor il
the same relation that the baron stood te
the serf. The creditor and debtor should
be equally protected. Instead of allow
ing the machine company to swallow
up the $500 paid by the seamstress
they should be compelled to sell the
machine and psv her back at least all
over the $1,000 due to them.
The whole tendency of modern civil.
cation IS to exact the rights OF the dollar
above the rights of man.
