have firmly set their faces against the
credit system, and thus have, at this date,
saved thousands of dollars to their mem
bers. Farmers are producing more
selling their crops at better prices and
at less cost, realizing more clear money;
and if they continue in the way they are
now going, year hence they wi l feel
and see the results of this wise policy
Farmers should not accept, much less
ask, credit It will fasten such q costly
rate of taxation on their labor that they
will become slaves to those who give
them thus credit.
Make what you produce; buy what
you need. If you cannot do that, then
don't buy what you think you need.
When money becomes more plentiful
in centers of trade, farmers may be
enticed to borrow money by mortgaging
their land at most exorbitant rates OF
interest. We raise warning cry against
this borrowing system. Rather far dis
pose of come portion of your estate than
to attempt to pay ten per cent. for
money. Not one farmer in a hundred
can afford to get loan at such rate.
Farming does not pay more than four pei
cent in this country, and by giving sc
much for the use of money you are grad
ually consuming what little you poss ess,
You may not feel it sensibly now, but
when the foreclosure of that fatal mort
gage comes, and the auctioneer's ham
mer rings out the sale of your real estate
and chattle property, it will be too late
to repent and retrieve. Stop now, and
consider we'll your condition. Produce
more buy for cash. Live freeman IN
a free country; don't become Yassal Il
money changers.

We believe, and have long believed,
that much of the labor difficulty in the
country has been Intensified, if not coca
stoned, by the reckless interference of
Congress with the MISUNDERSTANDING
with the act of 1869, depreciating the
greenbacks, and kept up ever since
in the interest of bondholders.-Evans-
vile (Ind } Courier
The greenback was good war money
good enough for men who risked life and
limb for the Stars and Stripes-good
enough for the wounded and widows
but not good enough for the bomb,
proof bond.holder. He must have the
privilege to convert the worthless green
back into gold bonds, bearing gold inter
est. The en- tire machinery Of the gen
eral government is worked to enrich
few and make galley slaves of the toll
ing masses.

True. The tax-paying masses seem
content to vote that certain professionals
may be perched in Feats of cushioned
ease. 1t is time for the people to stop

a weapon of mighty power either for the
veal or woe of society.

NOTES.

If the interest on the bonds the bond
holders hold we're payable, as it should
be, in greenbacks, instead of gold, there
would be an annual saving of ts0enty-six
millions. This large amount is the toll
that labor pays to bonded capital.

THE DUTY OF 'UsTAINING GOVERNOR
CHAMBERLAIN

We do not SEQ how, after perusal OF the let
tor Of Governor Chamberlain, there can be two
opinions amongst Republicans everywhere
throughout the country rs to the duty OF SUE
tanning him, in the most cordial and energet-
10 manner. He stands the representative
OF noble effort to give good gov
eminent, under the Republican name, to
the South. He must be supported by his own
party Not to do 30 would be- to abandon the
very best expression Of its own principles, and
more than that, it would be sign to the
country that men like Whipper and Moses COM
manded more influence and respect than an
honest and vigorous effort for Reform. Let
the country simply see for itself the latter in
dication, and the election Of Republican Pres
ident, this year, would be simply impossible.
Governor Chamberlain is doing only his duty
no more, no less. He simply meets tho de.
mand Of the hour, though he does it 80 well "
to command every honest mans hearty applause.
Not to keep all the power OF the Administration,
all the influence Of Republican leaders, and ali
the moral support OF the Republican organizes
ton close up to his back, 30 that he will feel the
need Of no other support IN his struggle with
rascality, would be both bunder and crime,
of proportions that would alarm and disgust the
cnuntry

The Centennial appropriation squeezed
through the House, late Tuesday afternoon,

being tackled on that the money sppro-
priated should DO returned in full before any

Exposition managers could have obtained, at
any time recently, Of capitalists, by the hypothe-
cation Of their admission receipts, the matsria

small potato amendment make the whole trans.
action very niggsrIy thing for the American
Congress, in this hundredth year Of the Ameri-

Of course, not more than Ten Republicans voting
in the negative, and none Of any prominence.

The same combination that made MIR. Kerr
Speaker, that grabbed the House committees,
and that proposes to run the government, il it
could be possible to elect Democratic Presi-
dent next November, showed its hand in this
mean, low priced treatment OF the Centennial.
Hill of Georgia, voted for the bill, but did
not carry another vote from that State with
him; Robbins of North Carolina, spoke also in
| its behalf, and one Democrat only from his
State joined him while Lamar. Of Mississippi,
had just the same experience. The same
Southern States that gave twenty-five votes for
the bill, gave fifty-eight against it. "Eecon-
ciation on the Centennial2" "No, not any in

REPUBLICAN DUTY TO THE COLORED PE0-
PIE IN THE SnrTu

Senator Morton dwelt briefly but with lust
emphasis on one point-the duty OF assistance
and support which the Republicans Of the Union
owe the freed people OF the South. The APP.
parent impstience manifested in this regard is
discredtable and il it could be possible that the
Republican organization after placing the colored
peoplesin their present situation Of trial and re-
sponslbility should tire in the work o! support
ing them in their equality Of political rights. and
should abandon them, dcfenceless, to their on
pressors the act would brand the party with in
delible shame. For good or ill., the blsok men,
by the war made free, are by the Republican
party made voters, and upon it the responsibility
for them falls, until by the passage OF time
either they reach the highest stature Of intelli
gent citizenship, or tho whole people, abandon
ing the black and bitter prejudice of caste, Join
in doing them Justice, and insuring them fair
play. In the language Of Mr.. Morton, the Re-
publican party, slionld it tire in the performance
Of its duty to the coored people, after having
placed them in this position Of trial and assault,
and exposed them to the dangers to result from
disbelief IN their natural rights, their mental
and moral capacity, and the hatred Of their race
il 1t should, tins hsIting and quitting its work.
80 act that their enemies can say that it admits
that the brief experiment OF negro freedom and
suffrage is failure. it would deserve the execra-
ton OF men, and doubtless, receive the punish
ment Of Heaven.
The colored peoples possession Of freedom
and citizenship is but brief experiments yet

cised over the action Of the socalled independ.

money man who was 80 obstinate in
his principles that he alone Of his
State delegation Of democrats voted against
Mr. Kerr for Speaker because the latter is = hard
money man. With Lsndsrs in the field, the
democrats will have either 70 indorse him and
make hum their candidate, soft money and oil, or
nominate hard money man and be badly beaten
by the republicans. All this in October, three
weeks before the Presidential election, which
will be greatly influenced, il not decided, by the
preliminary election. To say that Hendricks
Speaker Kerr and other Western democratic
lsaeers are annoyed at this complication IL only
family expressing the trouble It'll causing them.

THE LEADERS OF THE HOUSE ANNOYED BY THE
soFT-MoNEY atMBERs-THE SPEAKER IGNORING
THE RIGHTS OF AN INDIANA REPRESENTATIVE.
Special Dispatch to the N. y. 7imes.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The repeated efforts
Of soit-money Democrats OF the House to pass
resolutions instructing the Banking and Curren-
cy Committee TO report bill providing for the
repeal of the Specie Resumption act, in whole or
in part, has annoyed the Democratic leaders At
both ends of the Capitol, and to-day speaker
Kerr manifested 4 disposition to use the power
OF his office to prevent advocates If imitation
from precipitating such resolutions upon the
House.
MIR. Landers, Of Indiana, is wildly for soft
money, and tho only man in the Indiana delega-
ton who would not support Kerr for Speaker in
the Democratic caucus, his opposition being
sgainst the financial theories Of Kerr. Mr.. Lam
derB to-day notified the Speaker that he desired
to introduce q resolution and test the sense of
the House upon it, and requested that he should
receive recognition: In reply to an inquiry,
Lsnders informed the Speaker that his rcsolu-
ton declared against 30 much OF the Specie Re.
sumption act ~ directed resumption III January,
1879
The Speaker replied to Lsnders: ~ don't
know whether will recognize you or not" Ian.
ders took position in front OF the front row Of
desks. where the Speaker could not fail to see
him, and every time the floor was clear bawled
out in stentoriAn tones; "Mr. Speaker" but the
Speaker would not recognize him. Lsndsrs re-
CARDS the conduct Of the Speaker as an invasion
OF MIS- rights, and expresses determination to
get his resolution before the House. He says
he will not be choked of by the coterie that are
trying to run every man through their hard
money mold. Lsadsis says n majority OF the
people in kerr's own district are opposed to his
financial theories, and that his resolution is 90
framed that it will receive the entire vote Of the
Indiana delegation.
1t looks ~ il the advocates of more money ON
the Democratic side, who constitute the MAORI.
ty Of that party in the House will not submit
Kerr and Morrison, and they are likely to cause
much trouble.

The Polygamous Petition.

THE WOMEN OF UTAH REPUDIATE IT-THEIR SIG
NATUREs OBTAINED THROUGH DECEPTION.
It seems now to be well established fact that
the mammoth petition to Congress- which pur
ports to represent the expression Of the views Of
the women Of Utah upon polygAmy is q base
fraud. Aside from the fraudulent character
which the document bears on its face, many
Mormon women have made sffdavits
which directly charge that their zig.
natures were obtained by fraudulent
representations. They say that they
signed lists Of names, not attached to any
petition, on the statement that the lists
we're to be sent to Delegate Cannon to attach to
. petition to admit Utah into the Union 30 that
taxes might BIZ reduced. Another representa-
ton was that the names were for = petit
ton p reduce railroad fares tn Philadelphia, and
admit the people Of Utah to the Centennial
grounds free Of charge. They all state that no
suggestion was made to them that the petition
was to refer to the Poland and Collsm laws, OF
to the subject Of polygamy; il 80 they would moi
have given their names.
