THE Committee on Post Oii:es and
Post Roads OF the Senate are likely to
report in favor of the following rates of
postage on third-class matter First,
one cent per ounce for all distances un-
der one thousand miles second, two
cents per ounce for all distances over
1000 miles; third, newspapers not weigh
ing over three ounces are to be sent 900
miles or less for one cent for each copy.
These rates would be hardly less COM
piicated than those recently proposed in
q bill referred to the Committee, and
are not likely to be at al satisfactory.
The people can hardly be expected to
know, every time they mail paper or a
package, whether the place to which it
is destined is over or under a thousand
miles. For points not well known the
regulation would he absolutely absurd,

A CHICAGO paper whose opinion on
such subjects is worthy of consideration
says there IS no mistakinS the fact that
from the standpoint OF public jour
nalist, the stems of the times are the
most fattering for strong revival of
the business of the country. Ii people
write and talk as they think, there can
be no doubt of greatly improved feeling
And in fact this whole matter Of conf
dance IN commercial and financial affairs
depends much more upon feeling and
thinking than upon any things, facts or
circumstances that can be demonstrated.
So that if everybody thinks and expects
1Cnewsd confidence-renewed and en-
Urged business, and gees to work in lis
own affairs under this conviction, it is as
good as a prophecy. And whether there
is any real demonstIable foundation for
the faith that seems to have taken pos
session of men, or not, the faith is as
good and secure a foundation as any set
OF facts that might exist. In fact it is
better, for you may demonstrate to
logical certainty any financial PROPOSE
ton OF the future to a man of faith, and
lie will be of the same opinion still.

MISREPREsENTATIVFS OR FALSE
PRLTENSES.

The Democratic party of Wisconsin
claims to be hard money party: it he's
adopted resolutions in its State Conven
tons expressing a desire for a speedy
return to specie payment; it nominated
candidates for Congress upon platforms
OF this kind in 1874 three of those can
didates We're elected; they take their
seats III the House Of Representatives
and vote for ali unqualified repeal OF
law which declares that specie payment
shall be resumed in 1879. This is a fair
illustration of how much Democratic
pledges and resolutions are worth. The
Democratic party, or soft money par
ty, Just rs it fancies the popular sentl-
ment OF localities or states demands,
ana il the person of its representatives
in Congress- il is any thing or nothing
as circumstances seem to demand. Yet
the people must keep III mind that the
party with ali policies and no policy, de-
clariDg one thing and doing another, IS
the party which is demanding to be pla-
ced in power because of its superior
honesty, and more definite policy.
Il is pertinent to inquire of Congress
men Burchard, Cate and Lynde whom
they supposed that they were represent
ing when they voted to repeal the re-
sumption act. They did not represent
any considerable number of their Re
publican constituents, for the Republi-
can party, both by It's declarations and
acts, is committed to specie resumption
as soon rs it can be brought about. 1t
to repeal. They did not represent their
Democratic constituents, unless those
constituents in their party capacity are
Of fr,lc tan of hn orr
character, for they have, as we
have stated repeatedly, declared in
favor of return to specie-based cur
rency. They cannot claim that they
want a better and and more effective
law in place of the one which they voted
to repeal, because that would be to ad-
vertise themselves guilty of the folly of
destroying an existing foundation before
they had even the most shalowy pros
pect of gaining Il more substantial one.
Any man honestly in favor OF resumption
of specie payments must admit that the
existing law is at least better than moth
ing, and that it should stand until re-
placed by something better. The bill
for which these Wisconsin HaiSrepresen-
tatiVes voted was simply one repeating
all there is OF it providing for resump-
ton.
The constituents of Bnrchard and
Lynde are to large extent of German
birth or decent, and are almost unit
in favor of sound money-that is coin
currency or one based upon coin. None
of these men were represented in the
vote to repeal the resumption act, no
matter to what party they belong. In
view of this fact Cate, Burchard and
Iynde ought to be known as 77tisrepre-
sentatives in Congress, and their party,
unless it reprimands them for this vote
which it will not, should be knownas the
party of false pretenses, and its preten-
tions to superior honesty should receive
only ridicule and contempt. --Eve,ei,ag
