Between next Tuesday and the day that will
decide the complexion of our districts repre-
sentation in Congress there are but three short
weeks. This time is not only to be employed
in holding massmeetings and demonstrations,
but is necessary that every Democrat should
utilize the opportunity TO impress his neighbor
with the magnitude of the issues before the
people and the high importance of bis voting
for the Democratic candidate. There are evils
to be guarded against-evils that will arise
and threaten the very existence of our gov
eminent ifthe Republican party is successful
and there are wrongs TO be avenged, which
in their consummaton derided all right and
justice, and especially fraud which dsfed
the majority Of the people the law and all
that should be curb on rascality.
What matters single voe2 In a recent
conference between two Republican managers
il was given out that The sole aim and purpose
of the Republican party in this campaign was
TO guard against two-thirds Democratic
majority 10 Congress. Thus the question is
answered. One member short of two-thirds
majority will defeat the glorious purposes of
the Democratic party and crafty the malig-
naut ambition of the Republicans. Your
course is plain.

fine one. Some of the very best flyers OF the

that many well known gentlemen from the

the dash by quarter-poles of nimble thorough
breds, will attend, and, in some instances,
bring their favorite horses. The stables at
Pimlico are already well tenanted, and some

The number Of horses under engagement is
larger than ever before, The prizes amount
in all 10 SIS, 200, for which two hundred horses
will contest Then in the attractions must be
included the whole-souled hospitality forwhich
the Baltimoreans are proverbial, the fine racing,
the balmy weather, the rich cheer, and last,
though BY means least, the beauty and capti-
waiting manners of the Maryland women.
The meeting will begin on Tuesday the ga

DISPATCHES.

ATCHINsoN, Kansas, August H.
One of .he boIdest and most daring
train robberies that ever occurred IN
the West took place about half past
one O'Clock yesterday morning opposite
this city. A train on the Kansas City
St. Joseph and Council Bluffs railroad Z,
south bound, left Winthrop Junction.
Conductor Brown noticed four men get
on the platform between the baggage
car and frst coach. Afterwards when
passing to the baggage car the men ar
med with revolvers compelled him to
hold up his bands and precede them,
and in the same manner surprised a
man in the ear, and ais, the baggage
master and express agent, all Of whom
we're compelled to assume the same po
si,ion. The leader of the gang then
stepped up to the safe and deliberately
transferred the money, about S5, 100, to
sack they had and ordered the con-
ductor to stop the train, which he did,
and they escaped. The entire work
occupied about Eve minutes. There is
no clue to the robber, - yet.

No one In his sober senses ques-
tions the motives of the mass of the
men who claim to lean in favor of the
Greenback movement; but they
should not be beguiled into a move
ment where their good intentions will
be violated If they so act that their
votes result in weakening the Repub-
lican delegation in Congress, or assist
in strengthening the Democratic Leg
islative delegation by supporting can
didates for Legislature who will vote
for Democratic United States Sen
ator, they throw their influence en-
tirely away, for the Democracy as
party is the enemy of all United
States securities that were created to
suppress rebellion. If the Republi-
can party cannot bring about the
remedies that are asked fory the enc
mics certainly never will. The more
effective way for the conscientious
Greenbacker is to fill up the next
Congress with Republicans, who are
the fathers of the greenback curren-
cy, and then make known their views
on the money question As the ques-
ton now stands, it is not so clear
what is meant by the Greenback
party. The name comprehends the
different shades of views on the
money question. One will have a
system after the plan of the Bank of
England. Another will have nothing
but Paper Money. Another will have
Recoverable system-that is, if a
man has twenty-five or fifty dollars
surplus funds, he desires system
that Will give him a chance to invest
it in United States bond at interest,
and when he needs the money, he
wishes to be able to go to the Govern
ment, and hand over the bond and
receive greenbacks for it, and inter
est for the money while the Govern
ment had it-precisely on the princi-
pie of man putting money in a
bank on demand certificate of de-
posit. Another will have all the
United States obligations, of what
ever kind, paid in greenbacks, and a
stated number Of greenbacks re-
deemed in coin at stated periods of
time. Until all the different systems
are harmonized, and it is known what
is really wanted, nothing definite can
be done. The Greenback people
ere SO much at sea, that the proba-
bility of their doing any good by
separate organization is SO small that
it is overcome an hundred fold by
the danger of losing all, by putting
the determined enemy of the green
back into power.

Men speak now, disapprovingly
when government officials take an
active part in politics. What would
they say if government officials, un-
der socialistic or communistic sys-
tenn, would govern everything! So
cialism or communism is the worst
heresy ever advocated in this country,
and, if introduced, would soon end
in an absolute monarchy. Two gen
erations of official rule in all the
avenues of trade, commerce, and gov
eminent would create such an official
despotism from the head down to
the lowest officer, that a kingly power
uosld be imposed before it could be
realized.

Not . Reformer In the Light Of
His Record,

The Worth .7merican says: Last
year Mr.. Dill voted against an appro-
priation to the Society for Allevisting
the Miseries of Public Prisons. He
voted against an appropriation for
the Working Home for Blind Men.
He voted against an appropriation
for the Dixmont Hospital for the In
sane. He voted against an appropri
alton for the Hospital for the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania. He also voted
against an appropriation for the sup
port of the Home for Blind Women
of Philadelphia He voted against
an appropriation for the support Of
the State School Home for Colored
Soldiers Orphans. And he voted
against an appropriation for the sup
port of the Northern Home for
Frie1idless Children. While Mr.. Dill
could not agree to let the State trea-
sury assist these noble charities, he
was very willing to give $4,000 per
annum TO the Milford and Matamoras
Railroad Company. 1t may be said
in defence of his vote in the last
named case that it was not a charity.
No, it was not a charity. 1t was
something with much harder name
than charity. 1t was a pet corpora
ton to be dieted ON exclusive privi-
leges, like the Muncy Greek Railroad
Company, and We are somehow i'm
pressed that Mr.. Dill will find it diff
ticult to pass as reformer in the
light of his record.
