A Sensation In Court-A Colored
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1878-10-12

The government is decidedly ashort" of
funds. Il was agreed at the Cabinet
meeting on Tuesday, that, in view Of the
decline IN The reUenue, the Department es-
Inmates for the next fiscal year should be
placed at the louoest practicable figure.
The Democratic House, at the two last
sessions, interposed to reduce the extrava-
CANT estimates of the Departments, and the
Republicans raised the hue and cry that
the Democrats were trying ito block the
wheels of the government" and the Re-
publican Senate opposed every obstacle in
its power to the economic measures of the
House. Nee essity, however, is now driv-
ing the government to some show of re-
trenehment. If the economic measures
Of the Democrats had not been thwarted
two years ago, and at the last session, they
would have saved fifty or sixty millions
per annum to the treasury. As it was
they saved thirty to forty millions But
for the opposition of the Republican Sen
ate to these measures of economy, the
treasury would have been more at ease
to-day than it is. Give the Democrats
both Houses of Congress, and they will
put in the pruning-knife still further until
something like healthy condition of the
treasury-tree is insured.

REVIVAL OF THE Force PoIrcY

REVIVAL OF THE FoBcE PoLIcY-
Attorney General Devens has issued In
structions to the u. s. District Attorney
of North Carolina, that, ssIn cases of in
reference by Democrats with Republican
meetings" he and the Marshal are to pro-
coed under section $500 of the Revised
Statutes, which imposes fine and impris-
onment. Tie order says nothing about
the interference of Republicans with Dem
ocratic meetings. This order, says the
N. 7. Sun, SIS the first clear indication
Of the reversal of the Administration
policy toward the South. Leniency and
liberality have created no Republicans.
Having tried tufts Of grass to no purpose,
the Administration has now determined to
see what virtue there is in stones" This
measure will arrest any disintegration that
may have set in, and make the Democrats
unit again. U. S. Marshals must be
backed BY U. s. troops, and this revives
the Grant policy of torce, and is the very
thing to unite the Democrats North and
South, beat the Republicans clear out of
sight, and insure the successful impeach-
ment of the fraudulent Hayes.

The Main Object.

In the midst of all the discussion and
cOntrariety of opinion about hard and soft
money, greenbacks and national banks,
Democrats should remember that their
main object should be to get control of the
government Without they can secure
such control they eau do nothing towards
shaping out policy of any kind They
should not suffer themselves to be diverted
from their main object by side issues or
subordinate questions, but with steady
purpose go straight forward to the over
throw Of the party in power. Then, when
they have the power to adopt this or that
policy, whichever may be deemed best by
their united wisdom, it will be time for
them to discuss such measures as will
work out "the greatest good to the greatest
number" in accordance with their time
honored principleE Gold and silver is the
constitutional currency, and 4 paper me
dunn convertible into coin at par value at
the option of the holder, is an indispeusa-
bic requirement of trade and commercial
exchange. This We understand to be the
ground on which the Democratic party
stands and has stood since the days of
Andrew jackson and Thomas Hart Ben
ton, two of the greatest reGormers of the
currency known in our history. This is
solid ground, solid enough for all Demo
Gratis to staud upon, whatever different
shades of opinion may be entertained by
them.

CAPITAL.-The Baltimore Gazette thus
pokes fun at the tea-growing chief of the
Agricultural Department, Washington

The attention of Gen. Dock, of the Agri.
cultural Department, is called to the fact that
a very fine article of Sweitzer cheese can be
made from the milk of the cocoanut. The CO.
eoanut could be very pro6tably cultivated in
the banana zone along TIE Northern Pacific
railway. Gen. Dock hasit in his power, too,
to simplify the labor question by Introducing
the bread fruit tree in this country. 1t is be.
lieved that by crossing the bread-fruit tree
with some active variety of spring wheat, a
species of vegetation could be produced from
which the agile Greenbacker could pick his
hot rolls in the morning without particle oil
labor. By grating the bread. fruit tree on our
common butternut tree, it is thought that the
splendid buttered wafles, so much in vogue
with the bondholders and lickspittle capital
lists, could be produced in profusion and at
little or no cost.

Financial Reflections.

Did il ever occur to greenbaek advo-
Gates and labor agitators that no matter
how plentiful money is, it cannot be
obtained unless for an equivalent? The
farmer and tradesman cannot get a cent
unless he has something to exchange for
it, and the labOrer or mechanic must give
his services before he can hope to possess
any.
"Shrinkage in values is a phrase
upon the lips of every Greenback orator
and Labor Reform stump speaker. That
they are grossly ignorant or wilfully intend
to mislead, is apparent to every thinking
man. Values have not shrunk, but the
purchasing power of money has appreciat-
ed Taking gold standard-the univer-
sal standard among civilized nations-there
have been no more than the usual fuctua-
tions consequent upon decline or improve
ment. Property that in 1864 was valued
at $4,000, in greenbacks, when gold was
$3.50, was really worth but 81, 900 in the
standard medium of exchange. Now that
greenbacks have risen to par with gold, the
same property is only worth 81 900 whether
in greenbacks or gold.
The history Of all countries proves that
an unlimited and irredeemable paper money
il national calamity. England has had
sad experience with paper money, and a
committee, one of whom was Sir Robert
Peel, appointed by Parliament to investi-
gate the financial systems of the world,
reported in 1916, after exhaustive re-
searches, that the only proper standard of
exchange was gold, and paper money con-
vertible into gold at the will of the holder
Since then Eagla1d has pursued 6nan-
cial policy based upon their report, and
has had less financial trouble than any
nation that has adopted any other,
France tried her assignats, but they met
the fate Of all such issues. Turkey to-day
Is suffering from an over-supply of paper
money, which has deprecated so much,
frsm gold standard, that the government
has refused to receive It for taxes Both
the United States and Confederate States
have had sufficient experience IN paper
money not convertible into gold to warn this
united people never again to try the ex-
pertinent. In the South during the late
war, it was said that you could 90 to mar
ket with a wheelbarrow load of promises TO
pay-paper money-and bring back your
purchases In pocket book. In the North
matters were not so bad, but three dollars,
Rcarly, had to be paid for what one would
hase purchased before the war, or ut the
present time.
An over supply of paper money begets
system Of extravaganza and speculation.
Money, by reason Of its being plentiful, is
invested in stocks and bonds OF false or
nominal value, and then comes a crash,
Princely fortunes are swept away in a day,
the rich and poor alike share in the disas-
ter, then goes up from all the land the cry
of hard times 1t has ever been so, and
ever will, when false financial system is
pursued. Gold il the measure of values
everywhere, aud only upon gold basis
can values be determined and the business
of coantry successfully carried on.

The Elections.

Elections were held on Tuesday last in
Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia and Iowa.
The Democrats gain three Congressman in
Ohio, four in Indiana, with majority of
six on joint ballot in the legislature, and
in Iowa one National is elected who will
act with them, and perhaps two. Later
returns increase the Democratic majority
on the State ticket in Indiana to $4,000
and decrease that of the Republicans in
Ohio. In West Virginia the Democrats
elected all three Of the Congressman, and
large majority of the Legislature.
The town elections in Connecticut were
held on Monday. The returns indicate
that in most cases parties remain as they
were last year. In some places the Dem
ocrats lose by diversion of votes to the
Greenbackers, and Meriden is gained by
the Republicans.
