THE MoFFETr BELL-PuScH REVENUE
In our calculation last week regarding the
revenue to be derived from the Moffett bell
punch in .Harrisonburg we made a great
mistake. The calculation was made hur-
riedly and upon the basis of 213 instead Of
313 drinking days in a Year. The amount
should have been $2,S7S.35. Deducting
about $500 license tax Qhe license being
only half of what it was heretofore, and we
have S2,37S.35 as the amount the registers
will bring into the State treasury over the
amount realized from the sale OF liquors
before the Moffett law went into operation.

we know no more about the Presidents

man who knows nothing on the SUBJECT.
But when It was given outtfrom Ne"
York organ OF the gold-worshtppers thas
the President would certainly veto the Dit
rcmonetizing silver VIC did not believe tnae
!, was so announced from any positive IN
formation MS to what the President VIII DO.
We are sure the President has authorized
no such statement, and his short speech 10
the delegates OF the money-dealers proves
az much. The President told these aVari-
cious delegates that "they knew there
"woud be a manifest improperly in now
I" expressing his views upon the subject" ;
and promising to give it his careful con-
sideration, he dismissed the gentle party.
We repeat we know nothing OF the Pre-
sident's views OF the silver question. But
we know that he is ruler OF the right
stamp for nation. There is in his mind
principle Of humane consideration for the
ueople-a warm solicitude not only for the
recognition Of their rights, but for the
promotion of their prosperity and the
facilitation OF their business economy
He is the very opposite OF those rulers
who are without proper sympathleS FOL
those who produce the means OF life and
who support the Government. The natural
instincts OF such rulers lead them to favor
the policies that 60 to the increase OF the

OF ruler. So are all wko ALLEVIATE the Gov
eminent from the people.
So in what Mr.. HAYES may do-and we
deem it hardly possible that we shall I'm
peach his honesty, no matterwhat he docs
we feel sure that he will take the interest
and the convenience OF the people into ac'
count, and act according to his most con-
scientious judgment. We do not believe
that nny harm can come from the remoEc'
tization of silver; but are entirely satisfied
that il will be most beneficial, and greatly
assist return to speclc-payments, "hich'
we believe. with this measure may be easily
accomplished in 1879. If Congress decides
upon bill rcmonetizing silver Mt a proper
value. we do not apprehend that If Will pc
