The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1878-09-19

We have ever entertained profound
respect for the genius, learning and
taste Of Mr.. Garfield, of Ohio. He
has recently made speech in Fsneuil
Hall, of which the Democratic (Boston)
Herald says;
We have listened to many speeches
in that hall from the ablest statesmen
in America, but have never heard one
that surpassed it in argumentative pow
er. The intricscies of the financial sit-
uation were made plain to the compre-
hension of all who listened.
They who would peruse thorough
and mastery discussion of question,
now exciting public attention rs never
before. should secure copy of Mr..
Gartield's speech.

The New York World gives an inter
view with Col. Pemberton Briggs, Id
which the Colonel expresses move
theory in regard to yellow fever. He
thinks it originates in the exhalations
which arise from negroes, and that the
germ of the disease is an animalcule
which floats in the air, but is no. per-
ceptible by science. This germ, he
thinks, could be destroyed by con-
tinuous artillery fire through the infec-
ted regions. His reason for so beliey-
ing is that there was no yellow fever
during the war. He further says when
the negroes were slaves they did not
die from yellow fever. Now they die
not from disease, but from fright.
Therefore he thinks that not more than
ten of them should be allowed to live
in one place.

WHEN banker says that he paws
one per cent. taxes into the United
States Treasury and that his business
Ia not profitable we can't help remem-
bering that the people pay six per cent.
on bonds held by the banker on which
eis non-interest bearing notes, on
which he makes ten per cent, are
based: The people pay six per cent.
on 100000 for each 500. 900 OF ~
issued by the banker and he only re :
funds one per cent. ON the 500, 900,
leaving the people to give him $4,000
for 5000. It's bad trade for the
taxpayers. AS we have the right to
terminate the contract the banker
should Aot complain. He gets all his
money back and the people only say to
him, "Please keep your hands In your
own pockets" But, then, it almost
makes US weep to disturb the felicities
Of the nice little arrangement between
the banks and the government, of
which James Buell., Secretary of the
Bankers Association, tells when he
says in his secret circular to the banks,
"Let the government issue the coin
and the banks the paper money,
for thus we can the better pro-
tect each other" We object
TO such partnerships between q
republican government and the money
lenders. The government is only used
to pluck the people for the aggrand-
izement of the banks The govern
ment should own the telegraph lines rs
it does the postofiice system; but even
this ownership, to which we are &C
Is most unfortunate for the
country. Private enterprise would do
the work OF the Postoffice Department
At less than half the cost to the people.
The province Of business operations Of
the government should be the narrow
est possible, and the true theory of re-
pnblicanism is that that government Is
best which governs best. Bankers
must step down and out.
