The reliability Of banks is sgs,n called in
question By the failure OF Bowen and Mc0ow-
sn Of Cold Water. Az foundation Of this
bank We have two young men Of undoubted
honesty and . capital Of e20, 900. As result
Of four year, business. We hsvo liabilities ESQ.,
900, assets 90, 900, many Of which are worth
les, default go. 900 or more. Can there be .
sadder commentary on the now prevailing sys-
tenn Of "d0ing business 2"
The above from the Benton Harbor Palladi-
um 10 calculated to create false impression,
inasmuch as IT classes the private banking
house Of Bowen Il MCGOWAN with banks gen.
orally, whereas those institutions of the coun-
try doing business under the National Banking
Law, have to furnish the Government with
ample security for all their circulation, besides
having to submit to some wholesome and salu-
tary checks on outside and hazardous specula-
tons, No National Bank would have been
allowed to continue business on any such scale
as the concern Of Bowen & McGowen has.

Tue Truth For the People, though published
and edited by woman, is not at all lacking In
In to-day's issue it says: 1T is rather anus
ing to hear republicans say that the greenback-
ers are drawing largely from the democrats,
and at the same time doing their level best to
break up and treat them with contempt. Now,
if they are only drawing from the democrats,
the republicans ought to give them the right
hand OF fellowship. We have good reason for
knowing that some OF our once strong repub-
licans are now greenback men but the republic
fee, to sore too own it" The fact is that the
soft money men are not confined to either
party, and the republicans may as well recog-
nize the fact at once,-Detroit News

created, and which haunt the christian world.
I read Millions Paradise Lost when boy
and ever since then his Satan and his other
fends have brooded over my mind and flied
the sky lof my imagination with shapes that
have obscured the sun. l do not find his devil
in the old Testament, nor yet In tao New; but
| find that my clergyman has got possession
Of him as got it, and now this good clergy
man delights IN displaying him from the pulpit

You know am a director in the st. Louis.
Alton and Terre Haute Railroad Company, and
one of the committee following up Sammy Til
den in its suit against him. We have always
been good friends until this suit, and now we
don't speak. Whatever he may say about it.,
or the Democratic papers say for him. it was .
rascaly piece OF business, OF which Tweed
would have been ashamed. He had no more

Tiidn Repudiatedby a Democratic
PdDer.

The only German newspaper in Iowa, Der
Demollrat OF Davenport, has been led by a
careful consideration OF Gov. Tilden's letter of
acceptance to abandon him and come out for
Hayes and Wheeler The editor says he does
this because he thinks Gov. Tilden's demand
for the repeal OF the Resumption act surren-
der to the .inhationists, adding:
Tilden is right, but by no means original,
when he says preparation must be made FOR re-
sumption. The friends OF the act urged 1t
chiefly because ii would necessitate prepara-
ton and serve as dam to endless imitation.
Indeed, we believe the limit fixed Is more re-
mote than necessary. France did not require
so long time after her disastrous German war.
Why should we, with our boundless resources,
consume decades in returning to sound fnan-
cial basis i? Since his letter of acceptance we
do not see in Mr.. Tllden fitting candidate for
the Presidency of the United States, and there
fore We cannot give him our support"
Mr.. TILDEN's LETTER "a SURRENDER TO THE
WORST ELEMENT"
From the Public (anti- Republican,, Aug. 18th.
The only role Mr.. Tiden could safely or WISE
ly play was that OF the bold, self-reliant re-
former, true to all the best traditions OF his
party, without regard to present retrograde
tendencies. Ii is but just to him to say that
since his nomination be has made strenuous
efforts to prevent the passage by the Democrat
ic House OF the bill repeating the assumption
act but failing IN these efforts, he had not the
courage to defy or repudiate the action OF his
party, as he had already shown he had not the
power to control 1t. In brief, Gov. TrLDEN
HAS SURRENDERED TO THE WORST ELEMENTS OF
HIS PARTY, AND IN so DOING NOT ONLY LOWERED
HIMsELF IN The ESTIMATION OF THE BEST MEN
OF BOTH PARTIES, BUT HAS ACTUALLY PREPARED
THE WAY FOB HIS own DEFEAT.
A SURRENDER TO HENDRICKS AND soFr MONEY
