FAILURE OF u. ), GRANT & CO..
A BUSINESS VIEW OF THINGS.

FAILURE OF u. ), GRANT & Co.,
A BUSINESS VIEW OF THINGS.
There have been many catastrophes
in this blessed land of liberty and of
lying, but the failure of Ulysses s.
Grant & Co., Bankers and General
Business Agents for the American
People. is the most appalling and the
most widespread of them all in its dis
astrous consequences. The vast bust
ness of this firm extended in its various
ramifcations not only into every Sec
ton of this country, but to the trade
and political centres of every nation
throughout the world. The amount
of money which has passed through
their hands, during the seven and
half years of the firms existence, is
almost beyond computation, and the
distress occasioned by their failure to
keep faith with their depositors is
spreading CONSERVATION and ruin
through the length and breadth of the
land.
But, not only is this one of the most
extensive and disastrous failures of
modern times, it is also the most mex
cusable. The depositors of the firm
have been numbered by millions, and
tens of millions, and no house has ever
had greater confidence bestowed upon
it, or greater facilities for carrying on
its business. It's failure is the result
solely of dishonesty in the conduct of
its affairs. Although the depositors
had agreed that certain portion of
their money should be devoted to fair
ly remunerating the services of the
firm, its members have deliberately
taken the funds which were placed
with them in trust, and devoted them
to their own private purposes. Moneys
that were left with them for specific
ends, have been diverted into channels
other and entirely different from those

it come from, and whose money is it :?
Mr.. Canaday must have made money

up with his own money a district with
5000 white majority in it. If it is not
his money, whose money is it

HOW THE RECORD STANDS.

In the matter of exempting prop
erty from taxation it is curious to note
the difference between the course of
the Radical party and that of the
Democratic party. By the Candy
Constitution the Legislature was per-
mitted to exempt from taxation three
hundred dollars worth OF the follow
ing property, to-wit:
"Wearing apparel, arms for muster,
household and kitchen furniture, the
mechanical and agricultural nipple.
ments of mechanics and farmers
libraries and scientific instruments. I"
When it is remem bered that in these
times very few laboring men have had
as much as three hundred dollars
worth of household furniture and
such like, it will be seen that the
exemption did the poor man but little
good. 1t helped the rich man but not
the poor one. This was Radical Con-
stitution making.
In 1873 the Democrats had strength
sufficient to make some changes in
the Constitution, and one of the first
was to extend the power to exempt
other property from taxation so that the
DOOR Eean might receive it's benefit
