THE PROPOSED CONVENTION AT WASH
INGT0N.

The Democracy of Ohio have suggested
the propriety of holding a grand mass con.
vention of the Democratic party at wash.
ihgton in February when the electoral votes
are to be counted, and the proposition is be-
Ing generally discussed. While we firmly be-
lievs that Tilden and Hendricks have been
fairly and legally elected President and
Vice President of the United States, we
cannot see what is to be gained by the DEM
ocratic party by such movement. If our
candidates are elected, then let US rely on
the strength of the constitution and the laws
to see that they are duly inaugurated at the
proper time. Ifthey are defeated, the calling
together of a large body of their supporters
can result in no good. 1t bears upon its
face the appearance of intimidation, and
would serve only to strengthen the leaders
of the opposition in their determination to
install Hayes as the executive of the nation.
The object of the convention must be one OF
two things, viz, to rejoice over the announce
ment of the election of Tilden, or to grum-
BILE at different result. The first we can
do at home, the other will be apt to engender
bitterness and to stir up bad blood land can.
not end proftably or creditably to the party.
We speak honestly and fearlessly, and if
our views do not accord with those of our
Ohio brethren we cannot help it, these are
sentiments.

tsined ancient and appointed custom and
law Of the Constitution, so hat the incom-
ing President may enter upon the discharge
of his high aud difficult duties, on the
second century of the national independ-
ence, inaugurated and supported peaceably
by popular opinion alone, without taint or
suspicion of fraud.
Resolved, That it is unjust and inexpedi-
ent to undertake any decision of fact in re-
la,ion to the national difficulties pending
Congressional investigation and before re-
port thereon or any judgment as to law
without parliamentary examination aud
ascertainment of the law, if any. regulating

hereby direct that the committees OF Judiciary
general of both branches of the present Leg
stature act as joint committe to inquire
and report to the Legislature what provisions
laws and rules, if any, have heretofore reg
alated the Presidential question.
Mr. Ermentrout moved that his resolution
be printed and made the special order 70

parently unwilling, and, on motion of Sena

RADICAL DESPERATION.

The people can now see the cloven foot of
Tilden received popular majority of 2jO-
600. 1t Ia matter of fact that Louisiana,
Florida, and South Carolina were honestly
and fairly carried by the Democrats, and
them command the support of the people,
and are in the interests of the people. Yet,
VIC are to behold the novel spectacle of Tree
and sovereign states, entitled to all the priv
ruled by autocrat Grant. BY federal bayd-
nets, he makes and unmakes governments,
and dictates rulers who have been rejected
by the people.
In order to count in Hayes to fraud is to
be added violence. To the shame of Penn
sylvania be it said, her Legislature, now
owned by Cameron, proposes to take. the
initiative. Without waiting for the action
of the Congressional committee, with inde-
cent haste and in an unconstitutional man
ner, under the spur of the previous question
a set of resolutions we're passed instructing
Congress how to act in the premises.
This we learn is to be followed by an act
appropriating one million dollars to put
Pennsylvania on a war footing Who and
what they are to fight is as yet a mystery.
But jobs of late have been scarce. A Den-
ocratic Congress cut off s40,0O0,000 expen-
ses, and Democratic House Of Representa-
tives at Harrisburg held the thieves in check
for two years. But now the radicals have
the reins they propose useless expenditure
of 81 100000, despite the poverty Of the
people, aud the fact, as stated by the Gov
ernor in his message, that the receipts OF the
State for the next twelve years will be in
sufficient to the ordinary expenses of gov
ernment and maturing Indebtedness. True,
a million of dollars would allow some needy
adventures and militia generals to make a
splurge-men who never did and never will
smell gunpowder-and the thieves would
make handsome haul, but the people, the
taxpayers,-Republicans as well as Demo-
crats, would have to pay for the frolic. As
to being "intimidated" by such a movement
we have only to say that if Tilden is fairly
elected, and an effort is made to prevent his
Inauguration by force, the Pennsylvania mill

AFRAID K FRAUD Ok THE .' PUBLIC.

Whatever may have been the reasons which
induced the adoption of the rule granting
three days grace on bankable paper they have
long ceased to exist. Originally they may
have been days Of grace" and intended 10
benefit the borrower. Noe, they are days Of
hardship, and the law is in the interest OF
capitalists. Every man should adhere to his
Just obligations, but it is unjust to charge a
borrower interest on money which he has not
enjoyed, nor a rate Of interest for which he
has not contracted Whatever he contracts
to do, however, either expressly or impledly
should be adhered to.
The evils this. Every note falling due
on holiday is due the day before, and the
more numerous the holidays the larger the
profits of bankers and stockholders Hence,
legislation has been constantly directed to en-
large the number of legal holidays for the
benefit of capital, while as a matter of fact
only Sundays, Christmas and July 4th arc
generally observed.
Let us illustrate: Say $500, 900 900 are an
nually loaned by banking institutions in Penn
sylvania. Under b,nkng usage this would
realize in ipun1 numbers profit of S45 200,
0)0. Now including Sundays and legal hoi
days there are sixy-one days in the year.
say two months, or one-sixth of the whole
time for which interest is charged which is
never earned or, on the amount given tic
borrowers lose annually Is, $4,000 in this
State alone .'.t
But the facts are really worse than tht,
The banks not only take their intcrcst in ad
vance and compound it four times u year, but
many Of them in charging ip,erest include
the day when the rate is given, aud the day
when it is due. ~
Let us give another illustration. An notes
due on Christmas were payable the day be-
fore, Christmas being legal holiday; but the
day befor, 'oas Sunday so that the banks
gained teco days. The same was true Of New
Years so that four days interest we're gained
in one week on paper falling due on Christ
mas and New Years. The paper falling due
on New Years in this State is estimated ut
$50, 600, 900, so that the borrower was pillaged
and the banks enriched on that day TO the
tune of nearly so5, ,000l t...
This is not Just. The remedy is for the
borrower to pay only for the time he has use
of the money. No man pays for labor for a
time longer than actually employed, nor should
he for money. No man would pay for thirty
three pounds of butter when he knows he is
getting but thirty-onc.
