who within the three months previous had
succeeded in getting policies in favor OF bis
wife and son amounting to $254, 600 and
paid about $4,000 for premiums since.
He was financially embarrassed

premiums due on the next quarter. 1t is
the theory in some of the Insurance off
ces that Dwight intended when he took
out policies to be dead man before

Rock ISLAND, Nov. 10Th. 1878.
For The Argus:
| notice, by the papers lately, that a
formidable political scheme is about being
concocted by a combination of bankers,
usurious shavers. radical republicans and
so-called hard money democrats to demon
etize the United States silver dollar. 1t
may be hoped that the leaders of the polt-
ical rings who have cunningly commenced
operations at the great money centre, New
7 ork) under the ostensible auspices of a
bankers meeting will admonish the lead
ing statesmen and honest democrats of
our country that the so,calIed bankers
meeting is no more or no less than meet
ing of concldue of heartless, usurious,
money. changers. who are interested in any
and every political scheme that will enable
monied men to obtain the largest amount
of interest on the money they loan, aohich
political policy has brought ruin aud DESC
latlon over our whole country.
This nominal bankers scheme it may oe
hoped, will admonish our leading states :
men who are not welded to the ususurious
high interest party to las far as practica-
ble) organize and concentrate forces at the
polls, to aid the democratic party in carry
ing out the democratic maxim of ''the
greatest good to the greatest number of
the whole people. There is no business
man of experience and common sense who
does not kasoao that high rate of interest is
rasinous to the best good of every party e1-
cept the asurious shdUer,. The political
scheme to demonetize the silver dollar it
may be hoped will tend to weed out, FROM
the democratic party, all leaders who
affiliate with the bauk syndicate ring. The
leading men. of all other parties, can and
it may be hoped a0iN affiliate, act and cote
with the democratic party, the only party
that can and will save the country from the
ruin that must follow from the rule of a
high rate of interest party. NJ.
