A short time since Mr. Strickland,
living near Mansfield, In Tarrant
county, had horse stolen from him.
Sheriff Moon was notified of the fact,
and description OF the horse given
him. Early yesterday morning q sta
BILE keeper named Silverstein informed
Marshal Morton that man who gave
his name as Butts had the day before
offered him a horse for twenty five
dollars, the animal being worth more
than double that sum; that he had
offered 10 advance him FIVE dollars.
Upon being questioned by the mar
shall, he became indignant, stoutly de-
nying that the horse was stolen, at
FIRST refusing to go with him. but
finally consented to do so, being per-
suaded by a navy six. Shefifi Moon
identified the horse as the one answer :
ing the description, aud upon looking
up Mr.. Strickland, the owner, who
ehsnced to be In the city, he at once
recognized the animal as his property.
Butts was jailed.

AN OFFICIAL OPINION.

The Chamber of Commerce of New
York city entertained President
Hayes the other day, and the presi-
dent Of the Chamber made speech.
We quote:
''President Babcock said that at no
previous period in the history of the
last thirty years had the business of
the country been more depressed and
unsatisfactory than at present.
Twelve years have passed since the
termination of our civil war land, while
it resulted in releasing from bonds
four million human beings,it inflicted
upon us q system of financial meas
ures which has since put under bonds
10000 200 people. Human ingenuity
has been taxed to the uttermost to
furnish titles for the numberless de-
scriptions of these securities.
Under our huge pile of Indebtedness,
with the oppressive taxation to which
1t has given rlse-amounting in the
aggregate to nearly seventy millions
annually--andw with the unsOund and
eXtravagant management of public
affairs and private interests which it
has caused, is it strange that our COM
merce and our industrial interests are
crippled and languishing. II we fully
realize these evils we cannot fail to
see that no permanent relief can be had
until such us remain of the monstrous
and wild speculations of the past have
reached their inevitable conclusion,
and until upon a safe and sound foun-
dation of frugality and thrift our ma
tional elements of recuperation and
growth may expand into sure and
healthy progress. and life and prosper
ity shall be restored to the interests
of every section. Let us hope all,
whether exercising authority in
Washington, in Albany, in our city
halls and in our homes, will do it with
moderation and discretion to the end
that every department of the govern
ment may be purified and reformed
and the people may rise up and call
their rulers blessed"
Whereupon President Hayes and
his party got mad.
The truth is not always palatable
and Mr.. Hayes was not pleased to see
thus clearly depicted the fruits of
that financial policy from which he
has declared mo steps backward must
be taken =

AN ANSWER.

We have received a letter from
Judge Emmett, and another from
Joseph Gore, Esq, both of Faribault,
asking us our authority for the state
ment that the Legislature had the
right to provide for the payment of
the old bonds without referring the
question to the people. Our authori-
ty was the very able argument of ex-
Governor Davis. made before a COM
mittee of the Legislature, February
5th, 1877, a summary of which was
published in the st. Paul Dispatch of
May 18th, 1877, from which we quote
the following:
The constitutional amendment pro-
yiding that mo law levying tax Or
making other provision for payment
of interest or principal of the bonds,
shall take effect or be in force until
such law shall have been submitted to
vote of the people" &C., is in viola
ton of that provision of the constitu-
ton of the United States which
prohibits State from passing any law
impairing the obligation of contracts;
and that, therefore, the amendment
is void, not only as against the
obligation of the Legislature to levy
taxes for the payment. In support of
this theory Gov. Davis quoted from
Judge Cooley on Constitutional Linn
itation, and cited pertinent decisions
of the United States Supreme Court,
the Court of Appeals of New York,
and the Supreme Courts of New York,
Texas, Delaware. Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana, and Iowa.

COLUMBUS. June 6.-The State
Greenback Convention met here to-
day, thirty delegates being present.
The platform adopted declares that
throughout the entire country, labor,
that creator of all wealth, is either
unemployed Or denied it's just reward
and all industries are paralyZed, and
that this has been brought about by
class legislation and the mismanage-
ment of the national finances, and that
as neither the Republican nor Demo-
cratic party proposes and plan of re-
lief, the convention deems it is wise
to reahirm the principles of the
national Independent party which sup
ported Cooper and Carey. The reso-
lutions demand the unconditional re.

THE TIMES GROWING WORSE

Every pretence with which the
hard-money journals have heretofore
deceived the people into the belief
that the hard times were over. has
been exploded. Gold which was down
to 104 is up again to 107; business
does not revive; the coming spring
brings no improvement iii the condi-
ton of the laboring classes, and hope
dies out in the breasts of the people.

THE WHEAT FUTURE.

The grandest element in the wheat
future of Minnesota is the "self-
Binder" With this implement we
can raise wheat profitably on our
great prairies at figures which will
fgive us almost u monopoly of that CO.
cal. Already American and Russian
wheat is driving the English farmer,
out Of wheat raising into cattle. "A
recent writer on the subject says:
eve are informed that the culture
Of wheat and the smaller cereals in
Northern Illinois is gradually dying
tut, and that the chief crop hereafter
.sfll be corn, to be consumed in hog
casing and feeding cattle. Butter,
|cheeSe and pork are to be the staples
of that section of the state and such
farmers us have gone into this line
have realized handsomely. In Iowa
the same tendency towards decrease
in wheat production that has been
observed in Northern Illinois is dis
'cernible, and the state is abandoning
that cereal for corn.
Within twenty years Minnesota will
produce one hundred million bushels
of wheat annually, and it will be the
richest State in the Union.

The Pioneer Press Of the 7th inst,
contained a mawkish article, entitled
Servants of the PERIOD" the pur-
pose of which was to demonstrate
that society is already divided, here
in Minnesota, into Brahminical
castles, and that it is not only an error,
but also a crime, for one of the infe-
rior caste to attempt to mingle his or
her blood with the blue blood Of the
upper caste. The text of the discus
sion is the Kate Noonan affair. The
writer holds Kate responsible for her
own seduction by Side; and declares
her to be guilty, in some mysterious
way of the dreadful crime of sleveling
the distinctive safeguards of society,""
she certainly leveled Side, and if he
was one of the distinctive safe
guards of Minneapolis society, Min
neapolis society is in a bad way.
The writer goes on to urge that we
should have in this country a race
of servants, and that it should be here
as it is in Europe, ''once a servant
always servant" He says:
"This subversion of the. classes, the
engrafting of the ways and notions of
elegant leisure, on the industry which
must go on forever in the old Sweat
of-the-brow way, is one of the PERM
cious reforms of the time. These are

ton which demoralize the study fibre

bracing in substance the greenback inter

demanding the reconciliation of silver, the
equal taxation of all property, and recon-
mending the holding of further or supple
