We are informed by J B. Vellikanje
that tho farmers of Milford were
thrown into state Of consid erable ex-
element last week, by the doings of
an incendiary tramp. On Wednesday
evening, between Z and 8 O'Clock, two
of Mr.. Erdmann's wheat stacks were
mysteriously set on fire and burned;
and on Thursday MIR. R@der,s family,
who were at work in the field, noticed
a man enter their house, and fearing
that he might commit some depreda-
tions they fastened home; but none too
soon, for when they reached the house
they found the bedding and floor on
fire. The scamp had in the mean time
made good his escape. Later in the
day the man was again seen, in the
timber. Friday night Mr.. Doster and
MI. Leader noticed fire on the Cotton
wood river bottom, and, having heard
of the depredatiOns Of the two days
previous, they came to the con-
clusion that it was the camp fire of
tramps, and they at once aroused sever
al neighbors with the intention of sur
rounding the rascals; but when they
came to Mr.. Brandt he informed them
that his boys were down on the Cotton
wood fishing and had probably made a
fire, which proved to be the fact.
Nothing more has been heard from
the tramp who, it is supposed, set fire
to Erdmann's stacks and Readers bed
ding.

seeing that nobody dare venture to give

doing so.
Inyour first article you refer to la

are so large. suppose. If any Of us
had our toes tread upon, it certainly
was because you could mt find room
enough elsewhere for your big COW
hides. AS to leaving our, pretty little

Oh, how ridiculous! I thank you for
your information which is respectfully
declined. =

state in your last cOmmunication) be.
cause most of us had new dresses on. I
noticed also that those who were
not blessed with new dresses were
quietly pushed back into the
corners to make room for the

that the girls were sewing night and
day, to get their dresses ready. so that
they might be, .sadmired. = did not

II We have the information from Green
hacker in good standing, that part of the pro-
gramme laid out by some of the leaders of the
party, for their County Convention, was the
passage of resolution endorsing the Bmlletin as
a reliable Greenback paper. The man who was
to have put it through, was one of those who
have been persistently trying to turn the
Creenback party over to the Democrats. But
this little scheme, like several others set mp for
the Convention, was nipped in the bud. Hence
the Bulletins growl, the issue after the Conven-
tiou. That paper is in terribly::bad way for an
endorsement, and doesn't care continental
where it comes from, so it is an endorsement.
But in getting it, the Bulletin is unsuccessful

HA Democratic paper blows over the signi6-
cant fact, as it calls it, that VIM. d. Matthews,
q colored man, is making speeches for Gen. Blair,
the Democratic candidate for Congress in the
I'd District. Not very significant. Matthews is
a dead-beat, who, has acted with the Democracy
for years, because the Republicans refused to
elect him to Office. During the war, when SUBJ
stitutes were in demand, he distinguished him
self by driving up colored men at the muzzle of
the revolver, and compelling them to enlist in
the army, himself pocketing the bounty that
was offered for recruits.

BROWN CoUNTY.-The Republicans of Brown
are already in the field with their ticket. Their
Convention was held last Saturdy, and the fol-
lowing excellent ticket placed in nomination
District Clerk-W. NJ. Welcome.
Probate Judge-T. B. Dickason.
County Attorney-Ira J. Lacock.
County Superintendent-A. Carothers.
Representative, 10th District-H. j. Aten.
Mr.. Lacock is the only one of the above whom
We know personally, but all have irst-class
reputation, and judging from the one we know,
it is worthy and strong ticket. The Republi-
cans of Brown have a mean sort of opposition to
contend with, but when they so to work in
earnest, they always come out with a rousins
majority.

FINANCIERING-We have heard good and
characteristic story of a gentleman in this Coun-
ty, who talks fuently and learnedly on the
financial question, which shows that he could
regulate money matters that things would
soon be booming. This financier, whom We shall
call Jackston, at time when, under Reform
rule, County scrip was below par, performed
some service for the County, for which he re-
ceived a warrant for $50. Being hard up, he
hastened ont to find some one to who would buy
his warrant. He met Strong, who sometimes
handled County scrip, and inquired of him how
much he would give him for his $50 warrant
"Well," replied Strong, "warrants are selling at
80 cents, and you cannot get more than $40 for
your warrant. But I'll tell you what Pll do !:
You owe me $40 borrowed money, and Tll allow
you the face of the warrant if you'll let $40 of it
go to pay the debt, and take $40 in cash." "Oh,
no." replied Jackston, ~ can't do that. need
the money too badly, and cannot afford to let it
go to pay debts" "Well," said Strong, "Td like
to have the warrant; and if you don't want any
of it to go to pay the debt, 60 ond see what you
can sell it for to any one else, and then come
back to me, aud I'll pay you as much cash for it
as any other person offers" So Jackston started
around, and after trying at various places, he
returned to Strong, saying that no one would
offer more than eighty cents on the dollar. So
Strong counted out the $40, and took the war
rant, leaving Jackston still in debt to him for
the $40 loaned money; whereas, he had but a
few minutes before offered $40 cash, besides can
ceiling the debt, but Jackston could not afford
to let any of it go to pay debts!
Now, such man is qualid ed to teach the peo-
pie finances.

MORE MONEY WANTED-A heavy Western bus
iness man recently went to New York, to effect q
considerable loan of money. He was told there
were millions of dollars in the East to loan, and
would be let for a series Of years, at per cent.
per annum, but it would not be invested in the
West under any consideration, while the present
financial mania prevailed. They preferred let
ting the money remain idle, to loaning it among
people who advocate swindling their creditors
by issuing stuff without any value or promise of
redemption, and making it legal tender for the
payment of debts. Farmers who are groauing
under mortgages at IL per cent. can readily see
what is expressing them. If they want cheap
money, and plenty of it, such is waiting for them,
whenever the men who have it are satisfied that
the " fat" money epidemic has subsided, an
that they not to be swindled by being COM
PEELED to receive worthless paper in full pay
ment of debts.

Fun AHEAD.-Those who imagined that Now
ry would work in the Greenback traces at least
one campaign before asking for Office, and could
not believe that he woald be wire-puling for
Office before he had belonged to the party a
month, knew nothing about the sublime cheek
of the man. When lie told X. X. Stout that they
would vote together in the Legislature, next
winter, he was not j,kns. The Greenbackers
hold mass convention at Highland, the 9Th,
to nominate a candidate for Represent ative.
Rppey has Mowry ont working the thing mp
for him, as he supposes, but he is really packing
the convention to nominate himself, with q fair
prospect that lie will set it mp on Rippey.
1t will be remembered :hat, on one occasion,
Mowry wrote a note to Tom Osborn, telling
him he would hear from him in joint convention
in the next Legislature. Well, Stout and Mowry
will both vote together in next winters Legsla-
tnre in the same manner that Mowry figured
in that Joint convention.

.Eiaf,, Money.

When the Western Republicans, sliscarding
the hard money doctrines of the East, rallied in
defeuce of the greenback, It was in favor Of the
grccnback Of the Government, that Was 20 sell
known and tried. But they end that, instead Of
receiving the CO operation of the men calling
themselves the GFeenback party, they are as far
apart as ever. In fact, the Greenbsck party arc
not Greenback men. They have gone beyond
the good old greenback, and demand mass
of trash, without promise Of redemption and
without value, which shall be labelled and call
ed money-something more unlike the green
back than the leaves of the forest; for the leaves
will make manure, and the fiat money will not.
Senator Bayard, of Delawsre one Of the Demo
cratic leaders in the nation, says Of this propos-
ed new stuff:
The struggle is in reality for the life Of property
in all its forms of credit; and promise can be
paid absolutely and finally by promise, there will
never be performance, and so ends the fnbr1c OF
credit in all its forms and in all its results OF aceumu
laton."
The advocates of this fat money assert that
the Government has the power to create money !;
and if the Government issues fat money, and
says it is money, it is money, and men are com
PEELED to receive it in payment of debts. This
latter part is true enough. Government can is-
sue this paper, and make it receivable in pay
ment of debts for which good money was prom
Used. Government is sovereign, thus far; but
its power stops with swindling the creditor out
of his debt. The man who pays a debt with
worthless paper, cannot get credit again. The
credit of the farmer and laboring man goes mp
in smoke. Government has not the power to
compel the merchant to sell goods to the farmer
and laborer for fat money. 1t cannot compel
the manufacturer to manufacture goods, the
frrmer to raise crops, or the laborer to work by
the day, with the prospect Of fat money before
them. When existing debts are paid in fat
money, then credit and industry stop, and Gov
ernments authority stops. Every man. before
selling goods produce, or performing labor,
will have the power to say, "Lay down to me SO
much gold, silver, or old fashioned greenbacks,
| in advance, aud you can have the goods or the
labor; hut you cannot have it in your power to
compel me to take trash for pay" Then the
poor man will find ont what plenty of money
means, aud will have abundant cause to bless
the wisdom of the wonderful financiers who in
vented fiat money.
