The straight-out Greenbacker says,
turn all the United States securities
into greenbacks. and do away with
their redemption in coin, gold or sifrer,
but by act of Congress make them
perpetual or everlasting issue, based
on nothing but the fact that Con
gress says that they shall be a
loyal tender. The result of the pas
sage of such an act OF Congress as
would declare that greenbacks should
never be redeemed but should circu
late perpetually, would be to destroy
confidence in the now highly -prized
greenback, and it would be repudia-
ted entirely. People would not touch
it, for it is as clear as clear can be,
that when confidence in the paper of
Z nation or an individual has been
destroyed, the paper becomes worth
less. II the richest man IN Juniata
county would issue five hundred thou
sand dollars In notes or promises to
pay, and after the issue thereof, de-
clare that the notes or promises
should circulate among the holders,
as q medium of exchange, and never
be redeemed, how long would they
have the confidence of the commu-
nitys
That individual transaction Illus
irates the greenbacker's proposal f;
they propose to change all the United
States paper into greenbacks without
providing for its redemption in coin,
or anything else. In about six
months after such an act would be
passed by Congress, greenbacks
would be worth about as much as
their weight in waste paper.
Fill up Congress with e1-Confed-
crates, Democrats, and Greenback
Congressman, and they will legislate
all United States paper into green
backs, and then Will come repudia-
ton, by the people, as natural con-
sequence attendant on a destruction
Of confidence in the currency of the
Nation. and thus viii have been ac-
complished indirectly what the Dem
ocracy and the Confederates attempt
ed in and outside of courts, namely,
the reputation of the United States
Indebtedness that was caused by the
rebellion. No greater piece of indi-
rect dishonesty could be practiced on
a nation

1t is estimated that 10 the famine
stricken districts of China the popula-
tion has been reduced over 5000, 900
by actual starvation. and the prospect
continues as gloomy as at the beginning.
An idea of the isolation and suffering
may be gathered from the official re-
port of Governor Honan to the Peking
Gazette, in which he says: "In the
earlier period of distress the living :ed
upon the bodies Of the dead, next the
strong devoured the weak, and now the
general destltution has arrived at such
. climax that meu devour those of their
own flesh and blood. History contains
no record Of 30 terrible and distressing
state Of things, and if prompt mea-
sdres of relief be not instituted the
whole region must become depopulated.
Local sources Of supply are entirely ex-
hsusted; the granaries are empty and
the treasury drained dry, while the few
wealthy people In the provinces have
helped With contributions and loans till
they themselves are impoverished"

ONE of the criticism, that it was
said, told SO heavily against the Re-
publican party, was the one that de-
nounced the assessment of office
seekers aud holders. for a
certain amount each, to defray cam
paign expenses But never since the
organization of parties in free gov
ernment have assessments been
imposed on the rank and file of par
ties until few days ago the State
Committee of the National Green
hackers passed a resolution that every
member of the party be required to
pay 10 cents, and office.seekers IN
proportion TO the value OF the Office.

The Communists at Washington,
D. c., attempted by violence to pre-
vent men from working at wages
which the Communists did not ap-
prove of, and the result is that the
outlaws had their meetings dispersed,
and their leaders put in Jail tits the
duty of every good citizen to see to
it that men who desire to work and
have the work to do, are protected
from the violence of vicious men.

Ir is not the great scarcity of
money that is the trouble of the
country; the trouble is, that men
have nothing to sell or exchange for
money, and those who do get money
in great majority of cases use it in

sharpers, who are always on the alert
for prey. James Luft, Bucks coun-
ty man had his eyes opened in a not
agreeable way yesterday. Early in the
morning be drove to town with load
of hay, which be took to the market
al Seventh and Oxford streets for sale.
A purchaser was there in shape OF a
young man who professed intimate
knowledge of the market price, and
who, after some baggling, agreed to
take the hay if the farmer would de-
liver it at Twelfth and Cherry streets
Mr.. Luft, Of course, was willing and
started for the place designated. When
he arrived at Tenth and Filbert streets
he met the young man who said that be
would take the team to the stable him
self if Mr. Luff would go to No. 25
Cherry street and collect the money.
The farmer agreed to this, and started
in search Of No. 25. He failed, how
ever, to find such number, after q
search Of two hours and he then thought
be would look for his team. 1t was
not to be found at Tenth aud Cherry
nor a, Twelfth and Cherry streets /;
neither was the young man to be seen.
1t then occurred to bim that be had
been swindled, and at once be sought
the police, who confirmed bis suspi-
cions. An officer who was detailed to
work the matter up came across the
wagon, now empty, standing on Arch
street above Ninth, in charge of two
colored men. They we're arrested and
we're given hearing at the Central
Station in the afternoon. One Of them
said that man met him At Thirteenth
and South streets and gave him thirty
cents to take the team to the hay
market, and the other, who is . boot
black, stated that be jumped on to take
. ride. They were both bsld 10 $500

Mr.. Tilden's Personal RESPONSE
bility.

For the the Inauguration of the revolu-
tionary movement at Washington, for the
distrust and apprehensons which ill the
public mind, for this blight upon public
confidence and this blow at the reviving
prosperity of the land, for all the multi
piled evils of this mischievous and wicked
undertaking. Samuel j. Tilden is primari
ly responsible. The democratic party is
his tool and agent. Every democratic
Congressman must be held up to his own
accountability. But back of them ALL it
is Mr.. Tilden's hand that touches the NOV
ing spring. He could have said the word
Of peace. and no movement would have
been attempted He did say the word of
strife, aud the peril is thrust upon us.
Mr.. Tilden's assumed role heretofore
has been that of the special champion of
the peoples interests. He has undertaken
to impress himself upon the country as
the one man Of all others who was gifted
with the craftsmanship of reace, who was
most devoted TO the lottiest principles of
government, and who could do most for
the welfare and prosperity of the land
He has assumed to be pre-emnenty the
protector of the public interests And
now this model patriot stands revealed in
bis true character before the county as a
man who would imperil its prosperity for
the sake of accomplishing the cherished
object of his desperate ambition. For IA
long time he succeeded in imposing upon
many people as public leader of the
highest and puresl impulses. But in the
light OF present history he is clearly ex-
posed rs a cunning marplot and most
unscrnpulous and dangerous architect of
evil.
There is no intelligent man who does
not understand that this is peculiarly Mr..
Tilden's movement 1t has one of two pur-
poses-either 1t is designed to Gust Hayes
by revolutionary means and place Tilden
In possession during the present term, or
else It is undertaken for the purpose OF
forcing his nomination upon the Demo-
cratic party the next time. The latter is
the least that can be presumed. But in
either case ii threatens dangerous methods
and is intellectually damaging. There is not
. business man who does not know that
its whole influence and effect are highly
injurious. And this being so. Mr.. Tilden
stands convicted of inficting immeasura-
BILE disaster upon the country in order to
serve his own selfish and ambitious de.
signs. If never before. all honest men
can now see an understand him as he
really is.

Republican papers of all shades of sentiment
are falling iuto the way of calling the majority in
the House the Mexican Party.
1t was rather cruel of the Keystone democracy

The indianapolis journal says that the Repub-
can County Conventions now being held in lndi-

by this time that his best hold is in making COM
