The Milwaukee Sentinel is doing all
it can to make E. w. Reyes the next
u. S. Senator from this Stately op-
posing him. Of course, the Sentinel
desires to prevent Mr.. Key yes election,
but the course it is taking will teud to
hinder rather than aid the object it has
in view. In srecent issue it sal d
"The highest duty of Republicanism,
In relation to the election of members
of the Legislature, demands the defeat
of every candidate who does not acquit
himself of connection with the Keyes
ring of politicians" Now, suppose
MIR. Reyes and his friends should say
that "the highest duty of Republican.
ism. in relation to the election of mem
bers of the Legislature, demands the
defeat of every candidate who does
not acquit himself of connection with
the" Sentinel crowd Of soreheads, what
would the chronic grumbler of that
paper say? But Mr.. Reyes does not
do this. What he most desires, and is
earnestly laboring for, is the election
of Republican Legislature, leaving
the question as to who shall be Senator
to take care of itself. If the Sentinel
would be equally wise and judicious it
would display more sense than it does
now, and it would not be open to the
suspicion now existing that it is plot
ting to throw the Legislature into the
hands of the opposition.

Current Opinions.

Kennebec (Me) Journal (Rep.):
Said hard-money Democrat, the 9TH
er dag: Il never wanted to leave the
Democratic party SO much in my life
as now" There are tn ousands Of
other Democrats in the State feeling
just the same way.
Raleigh On CO. Observer (Dem.)
The Ohio idea as set forth in the re.
cent speech of Judge Thurman, points
out the true solution of the difficulties
in our way back to material prosperity
We will take no hard money doctrine
in our platform. Soft is the word
now.
Philadelphia Press (Rep.): 1t will
be seen by dispatch in our news
columns that twelve hite men were
surrounded by thirty Idaho indians,
and at last accounts Aere desperately
fighting for life. The great United
States Government sends to their relief
just "nine soldiers and fifteen citi-
zens." That is the Democratic idea
Of civilization.
Philadelphia Times (Ind): The
Raleigh IN. CO. Obserer [Dem. ]
is much concerned lest Gen. Grant: if
elected to third term, "may destroy
the Government. And yet this paper
was a rabid Secession organ, and, as
such, did all that it could to bring a.
bout this calamity. If the Union still
stands, it is because Gen. Grant foiled
the reasonable schemes Of the o.
server and its patrons.
Lowell (Mass) Courier: The
Greenback authorities OF Missouri are
discouraged at discovering in her
State Treasury worthless bank check
for 1896, 900, which the Treasurer has
for years been carrying forward as cash
on hand. Why isn't it all right &C.
cording to Greenback reasoning? The
check is in regular form throughout,
aud is irredeemable What more do
they ask tor.
Indianapolis Journal: Imitation
means higher prices for all the neces-
saries of life and reduction of the
purchasing power Of money. Under a
deprecated currency prices always in
crease out of proportion to wages.
Prices 20 up first aud wages last, and
when panic ensues wages come down
first and prices last. No class is so
much interested in having sound,
convertible currency as the laboring
class. and none would suffer sooner,
more or longer by imitation.
New York Tribune: The South
Carolina Democrats who are telling the
negroes that wien the Democracy
comes into power the South will be
reimbursed for the loss of its slaves,
are merely giving utterance to their
own private hopes. There are Thous-
ands of Southerners who believe they
will be paid for this lose in time. The
only falsehood in the statement is the
assurance that they mean to give the
| negro any of the money.

The Currency Question.

MIR. Blaine in a recent speech said,
"by common consent, the currency
question is the great question before
the people," Although he regretted
this, as the people could not afford to
have "a political currency question:"
yet as this issue is forced upon us by
the detection of Democratic leaders,
aud the Threatening attitude their
party is now assuming, North and
South, the Republican party can do
nothing less than stand firmly upon its
record and platforms, and battle for
sound currency, as opposed to the in
definite issue of irredeemable paper.
The purpose of the South is to get
control of the Government, and the
Federal Treasury; and through the
completely of the Democratic party at
the North, there is now great danger
that it will succeed. Wade Hampton
said, in 1868, when the Democratic
party comes into power, it will show as
a remedy for all our misfortuues;'
which means, an opportunity topay
themselves back out OF the money of
the North, for all the losses they sus-
tanned during their rebellion. Already
over $500, 100000 of"Southern claims
are on file at Washington, to this end"
Two things now, only, are necessary
to bring bankruptcy upon the Govern
ment, and paralysis and destruction to
business prosperity at the North.
These are the ascendancy of the Demo
cratic party, and the consequent food
ing of the country with irredeemable
paper, with which to cancel Govern
ment bonds, and also furnish "a rem
edy for all the misfortunes" and losses
the South sustained by their own trea
sou.
A more important or threatening
issue never confronted the Republican
party, and the prosperity of the Re.
public.

ONE Scales, Democratic candidate
for Congress in one of the North Caro-
lima districts. is charged with having,
in public speeches in that State, abus-
ed the revenue laws and officials, and
advised the people that the officers had
NO right to destroy their stills, though
they might be running them in viola
ton of the revenue laws. He also ad.
vised them to indict and sue in the
State courts any United States officer
who might destroy their stills. The
result of these harangues vas to in
crease the boldness of the illicit distil.
krs. 1t is stated, also, that every.
where in the South Democratic speak
srs tell their hearers that the revenue
tax on whisky is part of the Repub
liean oppression upon the South, and
that when the Democrats obtain pow.
&C the tax will be removed. This is d
sample of Southern Democratic states
nanship.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat (Repl.

ST. Louis Globe-Democrat (Rep.):
The grim irony of events was never
better illustrated than by recent hap.
penings to the Democracy of Missouri.
Their State Convention, couple of
months ago made terrible onslaught
on the National Banks. These institu.
ton, according to the Democratic plat.
form, are destroying our liberties and
crushing the laboring classes, and they
must be demolished. The Convention
had hardly adjourned when the Dem
ocratic State Treasurer was compelled
to hasten to New York to beg and i'm
plore one Of these same corrupt and
degraded National Banks to step in and
loan the State 100000 to pay inter-
es on the State bonds. The money
had been stolen by the Democratic
managers, and the "bloated bondhold-
ers' were begged to advance the need
ful funds, and they did it. The State
Convention should meet again. A
National Bank that is so managed as
to be able to make good, losses caused
by Democratic thieving is dan gerous
institution, and should be legislated
out of existence at once.

The Jefferson Banner must be anx-
iaus to defeat the denomination OF
Hon. L. b. Caswell for Congress in
this district. In no other way can it's
recent stacks upon that gentleman be
accounted for. Doubtless the Banner
regards him as the lion in the path of
Democratic success, and considers it
necessary that he should be slaughter
ed in order to enable its party to tri-
umph. If the Banner really thinks
Mr.. Caswell has made such grevious
mistakes in Congress, as it pretends,
aBd its motives are as pure and disin-
terested as it would have US believe,
Its policy should be to let him be re.
nominated, and then open its batteries.
But the Banner evidently don't want
Mr. Caswell to be the Republican can
didate, which perhaps, is very good
reason why Republicans should insist
that re shall be. 1t is pretty sound
rule in politics to ascer>ain what your
opponents would have you to do, and
then proceed mos. theoretically to not
90 it.

The Charleston Is. Co. Ncws and
Courier throws out suggestion as to
how the Democrats in that State can
carry the election, if there is any dam
ger of their being outvoted. 1t says:
The Radicals are making consider able
stir in Williamsburg, Sumter. Beaufort,
Georgetown, Charleston, and other counties
We cannot afford to furnish sticks to break
eur own heads with. There re only two
WAYS of couuteracting the Radical maneu-
yres. One is to send Democratic canvass.
ers to meetings where the thieves propose
10 speak, and expose their roguery before
the eyes Of their audience, whom the DEM
ocra,s cannot reach in any other way
The other is, TO arrest the rogues and cl p
them in jail for trial.
We see no reason why this plan
should not work successfully. VI
course, Democrats everywhere, North
ssd South, will approve it, and call it
asood joke on the Republicans.

The Augusta Chronicle2.is terribly
agitated over the nomination of Robert
Smalls for Congress in the Fifth South
Carolina District. 1t warns the South
Carolina Democrats that Smalls has
great influence with Ibis people, but
declares that his game must be blocked;
that force must be met with force, and
if blood is spoiled the negroes will be
% blame.
The Jackson Miss. Clarion speaks
favorably of the proposition to return
Jefferson Davis to the United States
Senate, "from which. he was recalled
By the State in 1861" And then the
Meridian (Miss) Mercury throws out
this suggestion: off the people of the
North will persist in making Grant
President again with special reference
to governing the South with strong
military hand, it occurs to US to be the
best Offset and the properest return We
could make to return Jefferson Davis
to the United States Senate from Mis-
sissippi."

OUR BONDS In ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Special: The statement made by Sec
rotary Sherman, in his speech that the
amount of National bonds held ir Eu-
rope does not exceed S250,00O,OOO, is
corroborated by the Register of the
Treasury. The latter officers has been
making some careful inquiries for
months to ascertain this fact, and came
to that conclusion. 1t was doutless
from the report of the Register of the
Treasury that Secretary Sherman made
the statement in his speech.
