THE REWARDS OF FRAUD, FOR.
gerry AND PERJURY

The attention of the people is called to the

perjurers, who, n louisiana and Florida,
helped him into Office. OF the fifty-five

IT is probably well known that Noyesis out
of the country, else he might be compelled to
answer to charge of perjury. The Atlanta
Constitution makes a plain case, as follows
When Noes was before the Potter committee
he swore positively that he had never been
closeted with Stearns and the republican mem
beers of the returning board of Florida. This
denial was made in rebQttal of a statement
referred the other day to Judge Cookies letter
in which he said that he was ready to go be
fore the committee and prove that NOyes had
lied. Mr.. Rippey has already sustained Judge
Cookies statement, and now the editor of the
Albany Advertiser, who was stationed at Tai
respondent comes forward VIII b hls testim ony,
which is that Of an eyewitness.
Mr.. Mcintosh, the editor alluded to, called
upon Judge Cooke at the state house one
morning for the purpose of obtaining ticket
of admission to the deliberations of the re-
turning board. He found the judge pacing the
floor in front of the Office of McLin, the secre-
tary OF state. IN response to an inquiry Judge
Cooke told Mr.. Mcintosh that McLin and Cow
gill had locked him out. He appeared to be
judge and the newspaper correspondent were
talking in the hall, McLin's door opened and
NOyeS and StearnS came walking out together.
Now, this Is the testimony Of an eyewitness
n gentleman who was compelled by the duties
of his profession to know Noyes at least by
sight.
With the case thus plainly stated
Noyes had the audacity to ask of the Potter
committee to give him certificate Of char
acter The devil himself could not have
exceeded the brazen lmpudence of the de-

The Chicago Times devoted a large share
of its editorial space on Tuesday to Senator
Voorhees, great speech at South Bend. Its
dirt indicates its swinish proclivities. and
the odor of the entire article establishes its
position as the polecat Of western jonrnal-
ism. The Times article is a mass of puerile
bosh, and evidences the utter incapacity of
the writer to comprehend any of the issues
which Senator Voorhees, presented. Its
blackguardism smacks of the brothel, and
the only success achieved is to confirm the
reputation of the Times as destitute of any
idea of honorable criticism.

THE people of Indiana are waking up to the
act that senator voorhees, Is demagogue OF
statements OF fact, his wild and perniclous
theories of finance, his fiimsy sophistries and
stood and rated at their proper worth. At the
very time when good crops, returning conf
dence, and the near resumption of specie pay
our financial troubles are past, he is perambu-
iatfng the state and bowling In favor OF infia-
ton, willing to unsettle the foundations Of
business again, III by that means he can be re-
elected senator. The people want repose more
than they do Voorhees.-Journal.
Really we have a fondness for this sort of
talk. Senator Voorhees, made a speech at
South Bend few days since for which the
tinues- Not single radical organ that has
alluded to it has attempted any REPUTATION
of the eloquent senator's massive arguments.
He did not misstate solitary fact, nor has
any misstatement been shown. His theo-
ries of finance are the theories of seventy
five per cent of the American poop e. The
more Senator Voorhees, speaks the more
patiently do the people listen, and the
more earnestly do they ponder his utterances.
We have had good crops for fifteen years,
an immense surplus every year. Still radi-
calism b. its legislation has inaugurated an
era of unprecedented restitution. We may

was not cognizant of their doings from first
to last is stretch of generosity in which
few indulge, and the number is growing
less every day. The astounding facts should
be kept constantly before the people, and in
due time every miscreant named, including
Hayes will receive the full measure of con-
domination they so richly deserve.

GENERAL WILEY said in his speech
in Garrettsville, we are informed by q
citizen of that place, that Canada has
| paper currency of fourteen hundred
millions Portage Co. Republican.
General Wildly said no such thing.
For the purpose of illustrating point
he made suppositious case, in which
he supposed the population of Canada
and the United States to be equal, their
material wealth and productions, and
their consequent business the same,
with al equal amount of currency
(Sl.5OO,OOO) with which to transact
their business and exchange their pro-
ductiOns, the one in legal tender paper
and the other in coin, and he argued
from that that the paper would be of
the same value as money and perform
the same offices in the country in
which it might be used rs the coin
would where it constituted the exclu-
sive currency. Now, that is horse of
u veay different color from that which
theGarrettsville informant has furnish
ed the Republican editor to ride. 1t is
by just that kind of Misrepresentation
that the Radical politicians attempt 10
deceive the people.

The Republicans claim to be "hard
money party" Let those people who
were in active political life from the
days of Jackson to Tod's "pot-metal"
campaign look about them and see
how many of these fellows were train
ing in the ranks of the rag barous.
The fact is there is no such thing as a
'shard money party in this country
to-day. Nobody pretends that the
vast business enterprises of the coun-
try can be carried on and the business
done with coin money. The issue be-
tween the parties is narrowed down
to this one point. Shall the Govern
ment issue the paper currency direct
ly, or, shall the power be delegated to
the banks to furnish it, thus giving
them supreme power over all the
business affairs of the country. The
Democracy claim that the Govern.
ment should discharge the duty itself,
while the Republicans claim that il
should be delegated to privileged
class. And that is the one all impor-
tant issue the people will have to de.
eide at the polls OH the second Tues.

Facts for Soldiers and their
Friends to Consider,

The Radical papers and stumpers
are constantly accusing the Democrat
ic party with hostility. to the soldiers
in the late war, though some of its
most eminent and honored men were
in the Union army and bear upon their
persons most unmistakable evidence
of their patriotism and valor. Sena-
tor Voorhees,, of Indiana, in recent
speech alluded to the record of the
Democratic House of Representatives
upon this subject which furnishes cyl
dence that should cause the blush of
shame to mantle the cheeks of these
Radical politicians when they repeat
their lying charges. He said:
"But in addition to all other accu-
satiOns, Democratic members of Con.
gress, and especially those from the
South, are continually charged with
disloyalty to the Government and
with an unfriendly spirit toward I'm
ion soldiers. l call attention of the
soldiers of Indiana to the record of
the last session of Congress on the
subject of their pensions-a bill for
the payment of all arrears to pension.

their heirs. 1t also provided that 'all
pensioners on account of death or
wounds received or diseases contract

during the late war of the rebellion,
which haye been granted, or which
shall hereafter be granted, shall COM
mence from the date of death or dis
charge from the service of the United
States.' The Senate refused its sane
ton to this just and humane measure.

lost an arm below the elbow, or leg
below the knee; the bill giving to
children of deceased soldier the pen

age; the bill doubling the pension to
persons who lost both hand and foot
or had both members SO injured as to
permanently disable them; the bill
giving persons who lost both hands,
or both feet, or both eyes, a pension

three months extra pay to the soldiers
of the Mexican war; All these and
other bills of kindred character orig
mated in and passed that body which
is SO often stigmatized as the Confed-
crate House; and but few, if any, of
them commanded the support of the
Senate. On this record l invoke the
candid judgment of those who peril

Hon. A. u. Thurman in his uaniI-
ton speech elaborated the following
ideas, as articles of Democratic faith.
He was in favor of no contraction of
currency; repeal of the resumption
act, removal of all restrictions to the
coinage of silver; re-cstablishment of
silver as money metal the same as
gold; gradual substitution Of United
States legal tender paper for national
bank notes, and its permanent estab-
lishment as the sole paper money of
the country, and to be of equal value
with coin; no further sale of bonds
for the purchase of coin, and a tariff
for revenue only. Such is the plat.
form upon which Mr.. Thurman stands.

The Republican stumpers are con-
stantly bowling about keeping faith
with the bondholdcrs and creditor
class, but have no regard for the faith
of the Government to the people and
the poor debtors; while the Democ-
racy adopt the noble sentiment of the
patriotic and eloquent Edmund Burke,
that at is to the property OF the citi-
zen and not to the creditor of the
State that the original faith of society
is pledged. The claim of the citizen
is prior in time; paramount in title ;
superior in equity" 1t is the weak
and not the strong; the poor and not
the rich, who need the fostering care
of the Government.

How the Government will be able

The Republicans claim that though
they lost the Legislature, two MEM
bers OF Congress and failed to get a
majority for their State ticket at the
late election in Maine, still they have
fully held their own OH the popular
vote as "hard money party" in that
State. That is about equivalent to adj
mitting that they have never been in
the majority, but have always been
ready to force their ruinOns policy
upon the people all the same.
