To the Editor Of the Sum-
Sir: | cut the following from your paper
this morning:
He (Butler) is reported as having said at
Indianapolis that an irredeemable currency is
more easily kept at par than a redeemable cur
rency, and that the old continental money in
this country, wiped itself out of existence
acithout anybody being loser.''
Why make me responsible for what I am
reported to have said?'' That is not what
did say. I did say substantially as follows
That Continental money did in its time a
good service to the country. 1t fought the
battles of the revolution, for without it they
never could have been fought It won for
us our liberties, for without some such de-
vice they could not have been won. Being

enough of them in the country and could
not be got here to pay it, it went
down by degrees, and out; but in so doing it
distributed the loss over the country. That
is to say, the first taker took it for his pro-
visions furnished the army 1t fell Por-
ton on his hands. The next taker received
it for something else. It fell SO much on
his hands, and so on until it became value
less, thus distributing the cost of the war as
nearly equal as might be among all who
handled money, and then went out,
Is there any doubt about these historical
facts2 I might have added what will add
now, that having done its work and distrib-
uted the expense of the war among the peo-
pie, it was no loss to anybody, but a gain to
all, but differed from our greenback in this,
that when that had gone down in the hands
of its various holders to thirty cents, we
funded it into gold-bearing bond at par.
which made it a loss to all, and gain only
to a few.

STRAITS STEAL CONFESSED.


We find in The st. Peter Tribune the fol-
lowing letter addressed to the GLOBE:
To the Editor of the Globe.
In your published report of my testimony
before the investigating committee, while be-
ing perfectly truthful, it gives the impression
that desired to make the testimony that did.
This is not true-and l meant to thus inform
the committee. but omitted to do SO.
My summons to testify was a complete sur
I also desire to add that, in conversation
with Major Strait, he informs me that $5 per
diem are paid to trustees visiting the asylum.
If this is the rule of the trustees, as I am as
sured it is, have no hesitation in saying that
his bill is correct. My desire is simply to be
just to all and permit no one to labor under
false impressions.
(Signed) CHARLES T. CoER.
Shakopee Sept. %. 1875
It is somewhat pc -uliar that the first init
nation the GLOBE should have that the Rev.
Mr.. Coer had written this paper d letter
should be through the columns of a cotem-
porary, and hence we are constrained to be-
ieve that Mr.. Coer must have entrusted his
epistle to Strait, who desired to use it as an
electioneering document instead of allowing
prompt response.
Whether Mr.. Coer desired to testify o,
not is matter of no public consequence.
He had complained that he had been placed
in a false position, and the committee gave
him an opportunity to explain. He comedies
that he was correctly reported in the GLOBE
and his only remaining point is that Strait
did not steal ten dollars.
Strait put in bill of $3.50 against the
State for the joint visit of himself and Mr.
Coer to st. Peter. He handed Mr.. Coer s.;
and pocketed $3.50 himself. Strait trav.
eled on thousand mile ticket, sohSch qoa!

and returned about the same hour the mex

He was absent from home but twenty fou
hours, one half of which was devoted t
slumber in the gorgeously furnished apart
ments of the asylum.

] By his own confession therefore he stol
five dollars. In reality this does not i'm
prove the matter, as the robbery becomes $
| petty that it disgusta people. They are dis
gusted to think that a member of Congress
will resort to petty steal of five or ten do
lars. 1t simply shows the character of th
man. He wishes to go to Congress to p1
money in his purse. That is as high
his ability and sense of honor reaches.

BRiNG1NG IT INTO Politics.

The Washburn organs are very much
shocked because the GLOBE makes political
matter of the robberies of Washburn's Min
neapolis wheat ring. They, very naturally,
deprecate making it political matter. So
long as it does not enter into politics the
Wheat Shylock and his ring understand that
nothing can be accomplished, and though
exposed no remedy can be applied. The
people hold the key to the situation, and
| that key is the ballot box. They want
to nominate anti-wheat ring tickets for the
Legislature throug bout the State and elect
them. An anti-wheat ring ticket is neces-
sarily an Washburn ticket. for he is a
partner in the ring, was one of it's original
organizer, and with his brother G. Wash
burne he's The largest inter st in the plumber
it secures. The remedy for the producer is
to carry the matter into politics, and nowhere
else can he find relief. That is where the
oppressed and plundered farmer can strike a
blow which will tell. The farmers Should
form anti Washburn clubs throughout this
district and elect men to the Legislature who
will see that such q law is passed as will
prevent the Wheat Shylock from plying
his nefarious and plundering game Make
it political matter, square and straight, and
utterly refuse any compromise. There is
where the relief lies. The moment you take
the question out of politics it loses llvital-
ity and you are at the mercy of the ring.

will not dare to rafnse to give the farmers
the protection Which they need in this matter

as it is not exempt from execution be subjected
to the payment of his debt to the judgment
creditor, and its relevancy must be determined
by reference to that object If the answers of
the debtor on his examination relate to other
matters not pertinent to tho purposes of the
investigation they are to be regarded lmma-
terial and Of no effect.
In case any property is discovered which
ought to be applied towards the satisfaction OF
the judgment it is within the power of the
court to compel such application either by an
order, making the application directly, or
through the appointment of a receiver with the
usual powers belonging to such an officer.
Whether the one or the other of these remedies
or both shall be pursued in any given case is 4
matter resting in the sound discretion of the
court and dependent somewhat upon the pc
cular circumstances of such case. That re-
celver may IN the discretion of the court be APP
pointed Immediately upon granting the order
for the examination there can be no doubt. and
such, 1t seems, is the safer and better practice,
hasmuch as 1t effectually secures to the prose-
cutting creditor that prlvity of lien upon his
debtors property which his vigilance Justly en-
titles him to; and it is not perceived how In anv
case any harm can result to the debtor by the
appointment of a receiver in the first instance,
because such officer and all his proceedings are
under the supervision and control of the court
whose jurisdiction is adequate to the protection
OF the interests Of both debtor and creditor.

Upon the facts of this case we think the discre-
ton of the court very properly
exercised. 1t clearly appears from the
disclosure that large amount of
personal property has been very recently
encountered by cAattle mortgages given by the
deotor to relations and different members of
ms family. This fact when in connection with
the other circumstances in the case is well cal
culated to excite suspicion and to raise pre-
sumption that an investigation may become
necessary for the purpose of testing the validi-
ty OF these transactions. In view of such
contingency it is highly proper that a r-cs;ver
should be appointed with adequate AUTHORITY
to make the investigation effectual.
The order appealed from is affirmed.

might be classed as the result of a duel.
