THE MESSAGE.


The first annual message OF Ruther.
ford Il. Hayes was transmitted to Con-
gress yesterday. 1t is many years since
the nation has looked forward with SC
much interest to an snnuncistion Of the
views Of its Chief Magistrate as 1t has
within the last few months. The times
have pressed very heavily upon the
labo,ing man. Capital has caught the
infection. and is very timid, scarcely
daring to show its head. until the great
questions which press upon Congress
and the President are definitely solved ;
and when capital is timid. labor must
perforcs suffer. since from capital II
draws iis very life blood. The problems
which forced themselves upon the con-
sidsraiion OF Mr.. Hayes are the gravsst.
probably which any President Of this
Republic has ever been called upon to
grapple. There was the silver question,
the resumption question. the Southern
question. the civil service question. the
Mexican question. and many others OF
grave. though minor Importance. How
no has grapplsd with them a psrusal Of
the message. which We print in a con-
dsnssd form IN anothsr column Will
show the reader.
MIR. Hayes Is decidedly opposed 10
the repeal OF the Resumption Act, which
fixes the date OF resumption on the first
81 January. 1879. OF course his oppo-
sition can DO construed in but u way.
Hit passes the Senate. which Is 81
tremely improbable, he Will interpose
his veto. which In this case will be a
death blow to the bill. The friends oil
honest government. and the upholders
Of the national honor all over the land.
will heartily applaud the President for
the decided and uncompromi.ing stand
which he has taken in this matter. The
poor men who are now suffering from
tho evils caused by imitation and an ir-
redeemable currency will bles. him in
the future, 10 they do not now. for this
action. Their. will 10 ample money in
the Treasury aud in the National
Banks. to accomplish resumption in

compared with the possible reduction Of
interest one-third by refunding 1t at such
reduced rates. II the United States had
the unquestionable right to pay Its bonds
in silver coin. the little benefit from that
process would be greatly everbalAnced by
the injurious effects Of such payment. II
made or proposed against the honest con-
victions OF the public creditors.
SOUND COMMON SENSE.
AL tho bonds that have been issued since
February -. 1873. when gold became the
only unlimited legal tender metallic cur
rency Of the country. are justly payable in
gold coin or In coin OF equal value. Dur
ing the time Of these issues, the only dollar
that could 10 or WAS received by the Gov
eminent In exchange for bonds was the
gold dollar. and TO require the public
creditors 10 take In repayment any dollar
Of less commercial value would be re-
gzrded by them as q reputation OF the
full obligation assumed. The bonds issued
prior 10 1877 were issued at q time when
the gold dollar was the only coin In circu-
lation, or contemplated by either the Gov.
eminent or the holders Of the bonds a. the
coin In which they were TO be paid. II Is
far better TO pay these bonds In that coin
than to seem TO take advantage OF the I'M
foresesn fall Of silver bullion to pay In q
new issue Of silver coin that Is made so
much less valuable. The power OF the
United States To coin money and TO regu'
lats the value thereof ought never to be
exercised for the purpose OF enabling the
Government to pay its obligations In q
coin Of less value than that contemplated
by the parties when the bonds werc issued.
ANY attempt TO pay the national indebted.
ness in a coinage OF less commercial value
than the money Of the world would in.
volve q violation Of the public faith and
work irrcparable injury to the public
credit.
I respectfully recommend TO Congress
that In any legislation providing for q sil.
YER coming and imparting TO II the quality
Of legal tender, there be impressed on the
measure a firm provision exempting the
pnblic lsbt heretofore issued and now ont
standing. from paymcnt either of princi.
nal ar interest In any coinage Of less value
than the present gold coinage Of the
country.
