Ex-Gov. Stone, on his return

The hall was crowded to Its utmost
capacity, and several hundred were
unable to gain admission. Even

painful and humiliating TO the

two hundred, under the comand o
Capt. Campbell, paraded the prInci
pal streets and escorted Gov. Stone
to the hall. The meeting adjourned
with enthusiastic cheers for Gov
Stone and Hayes and Wheeler.

Auu OtHeI 0tAteSs were Ic
quired to redeem their notes in coin
the notes 50 redeemed were, as every
person knows, Immediately paid out
over the counter and kept In circula
tion. No moro than this is contem
plated by the resumption law. BY
this act the Secretay of the Treasury
Is not authorized to retire the green.
backs upon their redemption. With
| out this authority, expressly confer.
red. he would have no power OF
right to retire them. They will cir
culate the same after redemption as
before, and no man who is not a
demagoguc or ignoramus will deny
this statement. III he does, we sug-
gest TO our friends To demand OF him
to read that provision of the resump-
ton act, or OF any Other LAW which
authorizes or requires the Secretary
OF the Treasury to retire greenbacks
upon their being redeemed. Don't
take his unsupported assertion for 1t;
don't take any mere newspaper
statement; but require him to pro-
duce the law upon the subject. Un-
der this act the greenbacks are re.
deemed from one man and paid out
TO another in tho ordinary way of
business, thus adding the coin paid in
their redemption to the amount Of
the circulating medium and increas-
Ing it exactly to that extent. By this
process gold IL put into circulation,
and travels side by side with the
grecnback, making the greenback
to and just as good rs the
gold dollar. In short. a reading OF
the resumption act viii establish
the following propositions:
/. Tho greenbacks remain a legal
tender for all debts, after January /,
1879, the same as they are now.
?. By the redemption of greenbacks
Itts Ns Hot iNtitta W tuhNtitu, ott
the total volume remains as before.
8. That by the process of redemp.
ton the gold paid out goes into cir
increasing the amount of
our circulating medium to that ex-
tent, and the greenback thereby be-
comes Of equal value with tho gold
dollar.
With this act before them our peo-
pie can understand this whole cues.
tlon OF resumption, and be filly able
10 protect themselves against all de-
ception aud all misunderstanding OF
Its terms aud provisions. They will
also find that instead Of destroying
the character Of the greenback or
wiping it out Of existence, the re-
sumption act makes the greenback
better than II now IL, and gives the
country more money thai, IL had before.
This greenhack movement ls
founded I'm error and misnnderstand-
ing, and depends upon popular de-
coption for It's strength and success.
This movement Is fostered and en-
couraged by Democratic leaders as n
means OF drawing votes from the Rc-
publican ticket. We do not say that
all the greenback advocates so In
tend, but We do say that such Is tho
object and purpose Of Democratic
wire-pullers, and manipulators OF
the grecnbsck hobby. Terg fer
Democrats will vote the grcenback
ticket, thus leaving the honese Re-
publIcans to hold tho bag alone.
However much 1t may be denied i.
Is an old fashioned political trick 10
injure Republican candidates. and
every flower OF freedom, and every
friend Of the government should be
on his guard.

n great Republican victory ut the, re-
cent election thcre, We're merely ''cook-
cd" for tho OCCASION, probably in tho
hope that they. would exert an influences
on tho elections, which immediately
followed in Indiana and Ohio. Now,
that these lnasliliciont reports can be
no longer effective, the facts in the

daylight, and instead OF the State GO
ing largely Republican, they may he

thoy have succeeded in making
tho result Of tho vote stand.ofr.
Tho news received. by mail from
