POLITICAL NOTES.

my Troublesome demagogues and
adventurers are rapidly disappearing

Mississippi Plan, that is to say
robbery and murder. 1t is fine party.

Bay"The Democratic reverence for the
opinions of the Democratic portion of
our supreme bench is waning. Every
Democratic justice in that court has pro-
nounced the greenback issue unconsti-
tutional. -NatiOnGL Republican. q.
BTrThe Republican party was
pledged to make the greenback as good
as gold. It is within one-fourth of a
cent of fulfillment. Why should the
party now discredit its work, and turn
the greenback over to its former enc

BSs~ Ex-Gov. Palmer at last yields to
the inevitable. He is reported to have
said that when statesmen like Thur
man turn prostitutes there is nothing
to prevent the rank and file from be-
coming street-walkers. The fall is not
so great as Lucifer's, for the Democra-
cy never had much virtue, anyhow.
Bs7yH The great task before the Re-
publicans of the country is to bring
back the thought and sentiment of the
people to realization of the dangers
that threaten from Calhounism and
rebel supremacy, and unite the Repub-
lican masses once more in defence of
their time-honored doctrine. Chicago

Bay- We hereby nominate Clarkson
N. Potter for the Presidency. Let his
friends join us in giving him three
ardent cheers. Now then! altogether!

Ba5"The Springfield Republican Qnd.
is the authority for saying that F. H.
Murch, who beat Eugene Hale for Con
gress in the Fifth Maine District, sis
probably the least reputable Represen-
tative New England has sent to Con-
gress for generation" And yet it is
over this ignorant blatherskite' S election
that the Democratic press is exulting in
loudest tones. Chicago Tribune.
Ba~Between the two great parties
which will always exist there should be
no room for controversy as to credit and
finance. The worst feature of the pend
ing campaign is that which the Demo
cratic party presents in its eagerness to
capture the votes of an organization
whose controlling purpose would be
destructive of the country's honor and
disastrous to its business interests. N
| Y. Times.
Bly~ The Democrats of the First Dis
trict in Texas have renominated the ex-
Confederate Postmaster-General Rea-
gan for Congress. 1t is evident from
this that an attempt to lie and cheat
the Government out of more than hall
a million dollars on Southern mail con-
tracts is not considered any objection
in the qualifications of Southern Con-
gresham, although the infamous at.
tempt was detected and exposed on the
floor of Congress.
BsE~ The South Carolina Democrats
who are telling the negroes that when
fIn into . la
South will be reimbursed for the loss
of its slaves, are merely giving utter.
ance to their own private hopes. There
are thousands of Southerners who be.
lieve they will be paid for this loss in
time. The only falsehood in the state
ment is the assurance that they mean
to give the negro any of the money

ital building, but robs the people by
using Government envelopes, paste,
brushes, etc. Hundreds of thousands
of envelopes have been used by it,
printed with the necessary franking
blank at the Government printing of
fee, and drawn therefrom on requisi-
ton of the Democratic clerk of the
! House.
R6FWhen Mosby was heading his
guerrilla cavalry during the war and
fighting against the country, the Dem
ocratic papers never tired of eulogiz-
ing his bold exploits. Now that Presi-
dent Hayes has rendered him an of
flee after he became loyal citizen,
they assail him with every species of
opprobrious epithet. Loyalty to the
Government evidently remains as seri-
Gus an offense to Democracy as it was
| in the war.
BaE~The editor of the Utica Nation
atiSt wakes very eloquent over the
| tramp who was once tender babe,
on whom some mother expended her
innocent pride" for he takes it for
granted that all tramps had mothers
with "innocent pride.n That is not
what the collectors of criminal statis-
ties say, however, but then hard facts
and statistics should not interfere with
the pretty writing in the Nationalist.
BSH- Not because "Misery loves COM
pany." but as tending to show that the
hard times in this country are not ex-
ceptiOnal, we continue to note the fact
that they are equally prevalent in all
the leading countries of Europe. AS
evidence of this we may mention that
in most of those countries striking de-
ficiences in the public revenues are re-
ported, and new plans of taxation are
proposed. But Europe has no Resump-
ton act or National Bank system to
rent her wrath upon. Poor Europe!-
