It is imDossible for ma to give .

1t is impossible for us to give even g
resume of Hon, P. P. Elders speech at
the court house Monday nig ht. The
speech as whole was not as good as those
who attended through curiosity, expect
ed. We failed to see a single point that
the gentleman made that was of much
importance-as he acknowledged, in
private conversation that the only diff
ference Outside of fiatism) between the
Greenback and Republican platforms
were illegal tender" and receivable"
The bulk of his speech was taken from
newspap, slips, and he said that the pa
pers never lied. The balance he read
from a speech of "Hon. P. P. Elder
We could not see where it was delivered
as the type was too small. The largest
applause of the evening was evoked when
Grants name was mentioned. The au>
dience was very good as nearly all the
Republicans in town turned out to hear
the speech. As speaker Mr.. Elder is
not a success. He does not come up to
the idea one has of a good deblter. That
he was tricky in his arguments we are
prepared to affirm. That his speech
made him a single vote we very much
doubt. The gentleman was so unfortu-
nate rs to let the cat out of the bag that
he had been coached and his views of
the Fiat" question were expressed in
muddy" language. so that one side claims
he is in favor of that kind of money, the
other that he is not.

In conversation with friend the other
day he stated that the only objection he
had to the National Bank Notes as a cur
rency was that when one was destroyed
the gain was in favor of the bank instead
of the government as in the case of the
greenback. This, we were later credibly
informed, is mistaken view. The gov
eminent furnishes the bank notes to the
bank and the latter furnishes security
that it will redeem those notes. When
those notes are all redeemed the bank
gets the security back-and not till then.
Hence the government gains the profit re-
sulting from lost bank note. Another
argument is that the banks pay taxes on
their circulation and if greenbacks were
substituted it would simply be substitute
ing about 1886, 0OO, 900 of untaxable cur
rency for like sum that is taxed. Now,
if the two statements made are not true
we invite Mr. J. H. Richards of this place
to tell us in what particular it is untrue
We offer him the same space this article
occupies. In the above article, however,
we do not wish to be misunders TODD. We
are not advocating either the preserva.
ton or the abolition of the National
Banks, for in our opinion, it does not
amount to one-half the fuss that is made
over them. We simply present one ar
gument that has been advanced to US
and ask for an article on the other side.

We have in our possession a copy oil
the Advocate, which is widely circulated
hereabouts, in which is an article giving
the history of contraction for ten years
k any of our friends will come in and
figure up simple sum in addition, We
will prove to them ~ That the total
contraction for the ten years given is just
about twice the amount of the actual
circulation claimed at the beginning.
