and Reputable citizen" This he said was
standing Invitation tn the South to hunt
IN 2ouples. A reputable citizen here is
peculiar man If one may take the Southrons
IInlt congress as specimens. This is The first
legislation att eIhp pied since the war that
makes no distinction between the loyal and
dleloJ Al men. A lo> al man in the South il
as deserving of payment for his losses as q
loyal man IN the North. Ben VIDE, of the
COMMUNIST ion on Rebel Claims, went through
the South and only fouLd two men who had
fought IN the Southern army. They were all
loyal and all had GAINS. Shortly after the
government purchased
THE kEBEL ARCHIVES
and then had a complete photograph OF
Southern disloyalty. This was complete
check on the Southern Claims. The present
Congress refused for foIr months 10 grant
the $600u necessary to examine these ar.
chlyes. and they only appropriated it when
pubnc opinion shamed them into it. MIR.
TIlden says be will veto every bill for these
claims that comes up TO him. will show
you hat no bill need ever be passed, and yet
all Of these claims can be paid. This bill
that / have just read will provide for the
payment of them all, if you just suppress
the rebel archives. This bill removes all
distinction between loyal and dsIoyal men.
This would give loyalty the laooring oar;
then loyal men, to prevent the payment OF
these claims, would have to prove the els.
loyalty of the claimants. How could they
do it Would the reputable citizens prove
1t No, aud tell you that 1T The people CT
this country, three fourths of whom are loyal,
hand the Government over 70 the men who
tried to destroy It, they will take everything
they can, and they would not be human ii
they didn't. They smart under defeat.
Would persecute them? No. They aren't
much. Seventy of them are in
Congress: not one OF them ever lost his prop
erty' or had his neck stretched for his trea-
son. I'm not sorry for this but | tell yon
that they are no more fitted to be trust ed
than the Tories of the revolution. Would
The Mort hern Democrats keep things
straight! No. The South has always ruled

Mr. TILDEN's LETTER
now is not to be trusted. II Is written in
the fear of defeat Two years ago Mr.. TIL
den urged The Legislature of New York 10
pass law making taxes payable ia gold
after 1879. TIL. Southern claimants don't
want mis-: they know that their only hope
for getting this money is to keep The green

that people will never pay taxes to pay

WHAT Is SPECIE PAYMENTS!
Why It simply means that the government
shall do what you and do, pay it's deb'f.
[ think thai the greenback is the best paper
money We ever had, and helped to make u.
But it was only promise to pay. and must
be redeemed. There is but one thing needed
TO make it a pei feet currency. and that Is to
put hundred cents in every dollar. we
