SMALL MEANS We think that the pow

msted The greatest things which were
done for the world have not been accom-

MARY means The greatest thinkers, dis
coverers. inventors, and artists have been
men of moderate wealth. many of them
little raised above the condition of manual
iaborers in point of worldly circumstances.
And it will always be so. Riches are Oft
ener an impediment than a stimulus of nc-
ton; and in many cases they are quite $
much misfortune as a blessing. The
youth who inherits wealth is apt to have
life made too easy tor him, and so grows
sated with it because he has nothing
lett to desire. Having no special OBJ
ject to struggle for. he finds time too heavy
on his hands; remains mentally and NOR
ally asleep; and his position in society is
often no higher than that of polypus
over which the tide floats.

MR.. SGUELL SPEAKS.

All good citizens will read with unGl-
loyed pleasure the interview with Dir. Angus
tus Schell, which we print this morning
Acting on THE TRIBUSES earnest appeals,
Mr.. Schel at length abandons his habitua
rcticence, and frankly declares himself In
favor of q non partisan Police Board.
It 1871 great gain to the city and to the
cause of good government. Whatever may
now happen, we are sure that the
contest for the MayOralty cannot re-
suit in the serious dangers that were
Mt one time feared. Both candidates are
distinctly pledged to the maintenance of the
Police Board on the basis on which it Is now
constituted, with membership of two Repub-
hcans and two Democrats We are thus
secure from any successful effort to handle
the police as II partisan machine. and have
reasonably good guarantee of the continued
discipline and efficiency Of the force.
The declarations Of Mr.. Schell and of Mr..
John Kelly lack, indeed, the iormality of Mr..
Coopers written pledge over his own sigma
turc. But THE TRIBUNE interviews with each
have been fully authorized, and if there is
the slightest error III either we call
ON them to correct it before election day. Be
hcying that there is not, We heartily con-
gratulate the city that the grayest question
involved IN the MayOralty contest Is thus set
tied in advance.

with friend who had accompanied him from

the friend was seen with Mr.. Smith Weed mt

asked that the Supreme Court might :" hold

The fact that it was Colonel Pelton who
made that journey to Baltimore at such
busy and critical time, in compliance with

"were politicians of low grade, whose trans
actions were not approved by their en-
"ployers; throw them overheard. Pclton was

a different sort Of answer. They cannot

HONESTY IN FINANCE THE BEST POLICY

HONESTY IN FINANCE THE BEST POLICY
MoIc than ten years ago General Butler, at
the head of nearly all the Democrats and
few Republicans in the House of Representa-
tlyes, rushed through q resolution to tax the
coupons of the bonds 10 per cent; which
meant that the Government IN its charac-
fer as debtor should forciby reduce
the interest on its obligations by one
tenth, without consulting its creditors.
Soon afterward the Republican National Con-
vention at Chicago declared that the only
true and honorable way to fund the debt at
lower rate of interest was to raise the Ma
tional credit. The question of honest dealing
with the Nations creditors was made the
capital issue of that canvass. The Re-
publicans won and the world was
taught that this was not nation OF
sharpers. After this, on more than one occa-
sion, on test votes, Congress solemnly reaf-
frmed the obligation of the country to fulfil
its engagements in the spirit of the contract.
Reputation, open and covert, was again and
again voted down. The volume of legal tenders
was kept within the limit fixed by law.
The interest was always promptly paid
in coin. And now the interest on the debt
instead of being reduced One-tenth, has been
reduced One-tbird, and every bond surrendered

for conversion has been paid as the creditors
had right TO expect that it should be paid.
Does any one imagine that the country could
now have negotiated four per cent loan II, In
single instance, the counsels OF Butler
and his Democratic allies had prevailed'
Can any one believe that the Nation would
now be paying but three dollars on account
of interest where it paid five dollars twelve
years ago, if our credit had not been strength
ened by the persistent purpose to Keep good
faith with its creditors which has hitherto
inspired the peopleP All this is only
a repetition of what human experience has
demonstrated over and over again. 1t Is only
one more added to the lessons OF history, bur
it is recent and at our doors. And 1t Is a
good thing to remember now, when these same
assaIlers of the cOuntry's credit are making
appeals to the basest motives OF the
basest classes Leaving out of ques-
ton the perniciOus influence upon popular
morals which an act of fragrant rascallty
by the Government must surely exercise, and
not considering what a crime would be COM
mitted agans, free government if this Republic
should prove itself more easily tempted to dis
honesty than the weakest and most shameless
despotism of the Old World, it is worth
remembering that it has again been
demonstrated in our own experience, and
that in spite of stumbling and blum
dcrng our present financial position
proves once more that honesty is the best
policy And now that the National debt is
but trife more than One-half as much per
head as it was at the close of the war, when
Democrats and Nationals attempt to throw
the country into fraudulent bankruptcy by
Il fresh issue of lcgal-tenders, it is well to re-
mind them, if appeals to higher motives are
of no avail, that national dishonesty is the
most expensive and exhausting OF luxuries.

The campaign in Massachusetts, this year is one Of
the liveliest which has agiated that respect
able state. There is always good deal of speaking
there Just before election for the people fond OF
platform oratory. Everybody who can make
speech at all, and who has no passion for General
Butler seems to have taken the field against
him. and from Berkshire to Barnstable the
air is resonant with anti-Grcenback eloCutiOn.
The main topic - the folly aud wickedness
OF initiation and of Reputation. In Boston. the
other night, one of the speakers brought forward
What may be called concrete argument. lie ex-
hbtcd a five dollar Confederate paper note and
Confederate five dollar gold coin, and asked tor bids
for the respective pieces. General Bnter promises
TO be the best discussed man in the State before
all is over. The latest scandal aired about him
is that he sold monopoly of the
new spapcr trade in his camp in North Carolina in
1864, compelling the soldiers to pay 10 and II
cents each tor cent newspapers. But then he may
have bad a motive for this. His dislike of news
papers is no secret 1t wasn't the money he was
afcr-of course he was only afraid that those
rcsl,rpus sheets might exercise bad moral iniiu-
rnCe. II there is one thing which he loves, 1t Is

There is one newspaper at least in Missouri which
iscandd In calling upon every citizen who believes
in honest money and the honest payment of the Ma
tional debt to vote the Republican ticket. The 81
Lopis Globe Democrat says: " We do not pretend to
believe that It will be elected. but il is worth while
TO show the country that even in Missouri there are
n great many thousand men who are sternly and
unalterably opposed to tho Initiation and reputation
wicke,lness of the dominant Democracy" This Is
very different from the of the Massachusetts,
Rutcrites who declare without cessation that their
leader will be elected by 10000. or 10000, or
40 600 plurality. The party which stand fast
BIZ its principles on election day without stimulus
Of that sort deserves success aud is pretty in
the Ion run to win 1t.
