The A'gus' Conversion.

The conversion Of the Argns to a de-
fender of the Presidents title is exceed
iuglv marvellous if sincere, and if not sin
cere 1t is "most monstrous political
fraud" In the issue of the Argus of Feb
ruary 10th it had the following leader in
its columns, which reads strangely when
contrasted with its article the other day
in defence of the Presidents title:
THE PRESIDENCY. FRAUD HAS
TRIUMPHED!
Il is useless 10 waste words over the infamy per
petrated by the majority of the electoral commits
sion. 1t has declined to perform the duty commit
ted to 1t of investigating the questions at issue IN
the contested states, and has persisted IN SIMPLY per
forming the task which the consprstoIs had preVl-
ously determined to demand of the President OF
the Senate, viz the counting OF the elecoraV otes
of Florida and Louisiana as made up by the re-
turning boards Of those states.
A more glaring outrage upon truth, law, justice
and decency was never perpetrsted IN the worlds
history snd it is done to place in the position first
occupied by Washington, man who was not chos
en- thereto by the people, but who will take II IN
utter defiance Of their will. We have seen the
Supreme Court packed to reverse righteous de
cision we have seen state prison doors thrown
open to q whole class Of criminals; and now we
see the path to the presidency paved with FRAUD
open, BOLD, NOTORIOUS FRAUD
FRAUD so DEEP AND DAMNlNG that
not even a Morton aud Garfield dare look it IN
the face.
And to this pass have corrupt leaders brought a
great party. 1t makes its bed with fraud and corrup
ton, and Its leaders, without shame glory over
the achievement! Either the people are so de-
based that it matters little whether Truth treach
cry triumph, or the perpetrators Of this foul nia
my have forever sealed their own doom. II there
is virtue enough in the country ii III arise like
moral giant from this inetfsble disgrace and de-
basement; but if there is not, the downfall will be
speedy, and will hardly be hastened bv any par
ticusr acts which are but the outcrop of the gen
eral degradation.
We still have faith in the people. We know
that the two hundred and fifty thousand majority
who fairly voted down Hayes will from this hour
renew the contest, and will not rest until their
country is redeemed from the rule OF the Mortons,
Chambers and their whole vile crew.

Williams and Connor vie with each
other in their letters of acceptance in as
serting and maintaining the validity of
Hayes title to the Presidency. This is
not strange. They have long acted to-
gether politically, and would have so
acted longer, if Connor had begun his po
ltical life earlier. On the question of up
holding and defending the Great Fraud,
they are a veritable Saul and Jonathan.

authorized the issue of legal tender notes
by banks or individuals it never author
lied issue of any form of money. What
it authorized was the issue of paper prom
sing to pay money, leaving every man
free to accept each bank note or reject it
in the payment of debts at his pleasure.
The greenback has far greater powers
than that. Every man is compelled to ac-
cept this paper promising to pay (but new
er paying) dollars of money. The issue
of greenback notes, made legal-tender in
payment of private debts, stands. there
tore. wholly and distinct from all bank
note or other description OF substitutes
for money. The greenback when pre-
sented. no matter whether it is worth
twenty. or ninety or one hundred cents on
the dollar, is payment, absolute and final.
The acceptance of the national bank note
is optional.
In regard to one object which the Con-
rress Hall convention had at heart ii and
the fcsutilItlODlslS dIt as Ol's hC = ph7
vention called for the same money for the
bondholder and the laborer. That is the
financial condition which the hard-money
men are seeking to reach, and which they
have really attained. They aim to make
the greenback promise to pay dollar
equal to the gold dollar, so that the labor.
er when he gets six dollars for his work
can purchase as much with it as the cap
itai,ts can with the coupon he has just
cut from his government bond. And the
hard-money men have so tar succeeded
that they have brought the greenback
promise for dollar within four cents of
the gold dollar. Unless they are baked
in their efforts by misguided though we'll
meaning men like those who made up
the Congress Hall Convention they will
accomplish it too by the agency OF the
very act for the repeal of which the "cur-
rencv reformers" SO Justify cry.
