Is He BAcKINe Down s-John shel

Is He BACKING Down ?-John Sher-
man has written letter to Michigan, In
which he says there will be S134, ,23I,-
S65.O6, in the Treasury available for re-
sumption purposes on the first of Janu-
ary, 1879. This looks like he was COM
| ing down from his late highfaluting style
Of talking about resumption with gold
alone. But he does not stop there. He
goes INTO state that there is per capita
circulation of paper in the United States
of Sl4.65. and that this is a greater per
capita circulation Of paper than there
is in any other country. The aggregate
paper circulation, he says, is S6sS, ,597,-
275. This looks very much like honest
John was again preparing to deceive his
single gold standard followers, and leave
them to get out of the maze into which
he has led them as best they can. Ger
tain it is that he never can hope to meet
this immense aggregate of paper money
with $134, ,23l ,S65.06. In this amount
the silver legal-tender dollars are inclu-
ded. 1t is nonsense for him to assume
that the greenbacks will not be returned
to the Treasury for redemption. The
Banks will feel bound to cover into their
vaults all the gold they can get for green
backs and it would take every cent he
says there is in the Treasury to make
up their reserve alone. Where then could
he find gold to meet the demand for the
general public? If the people knew there
was s6OO,OO0,O00 of legal-tender money
in the Treasury it is likely they would
not trouble themselves about it. But
when they know the money is not there
they will be sure to want it and Mr..
Sherman has just taken the trouble to
give them this information in the letter
we refer TO.
we have never changed our opinion
one particle on the question of forced |
resumption, and this letter from Mr..
only strengthens our convic-
tions that 1t should not be undertaken ON
the first of January. If, therefore, the
law can be repealed or modified by Con-
gress in December it should be done as
early as possible.

WE HAVE a very liberal set of gentle
men in Washington. They use the peo-
pies money as though it cost us nothing
They are about to pay England $500
ooo OF what is termed the Fishery award
when at the same time, according to the
correspondence of Mr.. Evarts, we do M,
owe England anything. Indeed accord
ing to an article from the New Yorl
Herald which we published day before
yesterday, England is fairly indebted to
us; nevertheless that journal to-day saws
we ought to pay this money because the
award was against us. That is, if one of
The thieves about Washington for the last
decade was appointed as Commissioner
and was deficient in talents and honesty

must pay. That is not sound doctrine
We believe we ought to have new trial.

until we are better convinced we are not
cheated. England would not pay it if she
were in our place except to save going to

The Republican has fallen into an
error in saying the GAZETTE sat first
condemned" the Democratic State plat
form las being too much for hard money"
Ihe platform as to the money question
met the GAzETTE's wishes entirely.
But the GAZETTE did object to it because
1t did not go far enough, in that it omit
ted to pledge the party for a reduction in
the army, and general reduction in the
expenditures of the national government
through the diminution of officials and
also OF the salaries of U. S. government
oHlcers; and the GAZETTE will continue
to urge these economical matters of re-
uenchment upon Congress.
