And now when resumption has, as we
are told by the Shylocks, been practically
secured, when a greenback dollar is as good
as gold dollar, when the purchasing power
of paper money is as great as gold money;
now, when all things should be lovely,
Judge Martinoale's magnificent estate Is
settled up in bankrupt court, and property
valued when mortgaged at $754, 500 will not
pay liabilities amounting TO 1915, 900. Dur
ing all the years of this shrinkage, contrac-
ton and ruin, by which Indiana has suffered
in recorded failures more than $25, 900 600,
the Journal has urged on the policy and ex-
horted Hayes, the perjury stained radical pres
ident, to interpose his veto to kill measures
brought forward by the democratic party to
rescue business from its widespread prostra-
ton. OF all the damnable heresies advo-
Gated by the Journal none were so fraught
with peril to business as contraction for the
purpose of making resumption possible on
the LIST day of January, 1879. And now the
Journal at its leisure can contemplate
the ruin 1t has assiduously worked to
inaugurate and which Judge Martindale's
ndnUcOmC ccl1JC, az IL AlCc WlCOkCd hPOh bhO
strand, forms a conspicuous feature. The
sad work of failures will go forward as long
as the radical party has control of the fiscal
affairs of the country. 1t will steal when an
opportunity offers. 1t will protect thieves,
when caught, to the extent of its ability. 1t
will, IN the future as In the past, squander
the revenues and oppose every meas
Qre looking to reform; and will
seek to retain power by crimes,
such as have no parallels except of its own
creation. We regard it as propable that the
Journal will continue to be the subsidized
organ of radicalism; that in its blind hostil-
ity to democratic reforms 1t will continue to
advocate measures such as have wrecked
estates, Frustrated business, destroyed con-
fidence and filed the land with idleness,
tramps and crime. But In all seriousness
Judge Martindale ought to oppose such a
policy, even If he has to join the democratic
party, to make his experience of value to
