Ridiculous inconsistency.

The democratic paper at Lewiston, the Gazette,
says:
The ereenbackers do pick ont queer men for
leaders there can be no doubt about that. Every
week furnishes fresh evidence of the ridiculous
Inconsistency of this poor mans party-heaven
save the mark The chairman of their State
Committee is said to have accumulated fortune
OF $500 900 by lending money at usurious rates Of
interest. He Is shown TO be the champion
money lender of the Kennebec Valley" 1t is
stated that he habitualy charges eight and ten
per cent. interest; holds large amount of gov
eminent bonds, and is a trustee CT savings bank,
aud lives in the most elegant house in the city of
Gardiner; vet this man, who has acquired a for
tune by money-lending, signs a flaming circular
denouncing money lenders and bond-holdeis
This seems to be one of the sublimest cases of un
aduterated "cheek" on record.

SHIP BUILDER.

Mr.. Seymour says: Communism 10 its open

latent shape in our navigation laws. Maine snip
builders will not allow our merchants to buy YES
sells outside of our country. "As they cannot
get them here for prices at which they can make
them pay, American commerce is driven from the
oceans OF the world" Let us examine the facts
and see how far Mr.. Seymour is correct in his
assertions and charges Of "lstent communism"

more than one third 10y Losses and sale of our
chips to other nations. Al the close of the war

The high duties on IRON ard other materials en-
terIug into the construction OF a ship made our
vessels at the close Of the war cost ten pei cent
more than those OF other nations aad 1t is true
the ship-huilders of Maine were anxious to be
placed on an equsl footing with other nations, and
the Sc duties r,mitted, which would enable US to
build vessels rs cheaply as other countries. At
this time the question of changing our navigation
laws was strongly agtated, and paid agents of
the iron ship building interest on the Clyde were
busy at work and had large portion Of the New
York press advocating free ships. The shlpbuilJ-
ers Ot Maine Il say to Congress and to the ship
owners of the country, grant US II drawback on
the materials entering INTO the construction of u
ship and we'll build them bs cheaply rs can for

laws you will transfer the ship-yards of Name

The Belfast Journal honestly expresses
its disapproval of Senator Thurman's
straddling speech. 1t says his arguments
in favor of a national greenback currency
and of abolshing the national banking
system, were able but not Satisfactory or
convincing to hard money democrats. "
Other leading democratic papers outside
of the State express dissatisfaction with
the speech, and say Mr.. Thurman has
made the mistake OF his life.

Communism means, in plain English,
that the industrious and economical class
es shall divide the fruits of their toll among
the idle and the vicious. TO the disciples
OF this vagary, property is an offense only
because held by other parties; turn it over
to them, and it will be all right. Like
che horse-leech, their constant cry is,
Give, give = but the dollar they earn is
never divided with their neighbor who has
none. They propose to support him, as
well a. themselves. out of the funds of
their rich felow-citizen. The man who
has labored and saved his earnings is to
be driven TO distribute to him who has re-
manned idle, or has spent his income in
illegitimate ways.--Ztoa'S Herald.
