DEMONSTRATION" has at length culmi
mated in Brown County. In 1873, the people
wanted Reform, and elected a Reformer over a
good Republican for County Treasurer, and re
elected him in 1875. During his entire term, he
had one principal deputy, who ran the Office
Iu 1877, the people of the County, still hungry
for Democratic Greenback- Reform, elected this
deputy to the Office of Treasurer, over another
good Republican. Soon there were rumors of q
defalcation. Experts figured up the shortage
at $4,000, and detectives who had been for
some time on the scent, last week nabbei Treat
urer Roehm, late Deputy, for the defalcatiou.
They are satiied that he was the chap that stole
the onions. He is now in durance vile to await
his trial. Oh, what good thing is Reform, to
get the Offices out Of the hands of the corrupt,
thieving Republicans! They have been trying
to force Reform on to Douiphan County, for
years. Let us have Reform. These R.publi
cans don't steal enough to make it interesting.

MADISON, Wis, June 6.-Reliable reports
were published a week or ten days ago in the
State Journal of the discovery of valuable sill
yer mines in the Penoka range of northern
Wisconsin. This discovery is fully confirmed
tonight by the same paper by Hon. Jack Tur-'
ner, railroad commissioner, who saw Hon.
John L. Kingston on the Central railroad en-
route for Milwaukee and Chicago, with a car
pet-sack full of valuable silver specimens,
which Mr. Kingston had'personally taken from
the mines in Penoka range. The mine is To-
Gated near Lake Gogebe. the precise location
of which Mr.. Kingston would not divulge.
Considerable mining has been done, and the
evidence is fully established that valuable sill
yer lodes have been discovered.
Mr.. Kingston, who is reliable gentleman,
well known in the State, also reports the ex-
istence of "copper" lead and iron in the
same region. There is hundred miles of
region where these mines are supposed to be
located that have hardly ever been explored by
white men, and the existence of valuable
minerals have long been suspected. Mr.. King
ston told Mr.. Turner he dared not make an
estimate of the richness of the mines, as he
would be charged with Munchausen stories.
By that he was satisfied their richness would
astonish the whole country.

result that is due to natural causes, not to

by the Republican party has been
calculated to strangle instead Of foster our

acteristic of. the party, and the newspapers
who are now lauding the Republicans fer in

direction that trade would naturally take,
with or without legislation, display the most
sublime stupidity and ignorance. We are
bound to produce more than we can consume
in tois country, and must find market for
our products abroad. The occasion for inn
porting is decreasing every day, while the
necessity for exporting is on the increase
constantly. No party is deserving of credit
for such state of things. It has come about
because Of the extent Of our resources and
the boundlessness of our industry. MIR.
Hayes is deserving of no more credit for It

mer visitors from the South and East, and
already our hotels and boarding houses are
taxed to their utmost capacity. The open

dations for large number of additional

room. Some enterprising citizens could no
doubt derive profit from the construction of
a good summer hotel here, while those hos.
telries already in operation might be relieved
of some of the pressure upon their space by
the erection of a few pleasant cottages for the
use of those who prefer house keeping to
hotel life. ...

The brewers of the country have adopted
series of resolutions on the temperance
question. They regard the drinking of beer
as the surest indication of a liberal and pro-
gressive spirit, and declare that all prohib-
itory laws should be resisted. By the use of
fermented malt liquors, they assert, the
cause of temperance is advanced, yet they
became 80 hilarious upon the beverage that
they forgot temperance so far as to douse
the editor of temperance newspaper with
glass after glass of the foaming liquid.
Temperance in conduct does not seem to re-
suit from copaous indulgence in beer-at

THE BALANCE OF TRADE,


During the jaunt of Mr.. Hayes to the va
rious agricultural fairs last fall he took
especial pains to relate the great benefits
conferred upon the country by his own ad-
ministration and that of his immediate pre-
decessor in commercial point of view.
He related the fact that the commerce of the
country, under the benefcent system inau-
gurated by the Republican party, was con-
stantly increasing, and that for the first time
in many years the balance of trade was in
favor of the United States-that we were
exporting more than We were importing, and
as consequence the wealth of other nations
was being poured out at our feet The array
of figures he fired at the heads of his hear
ers was perfectly bewildering, and many
were induced to accept his conclusions as
correct simply because of their inability to
comprehend the statistics presented, and the
lack of comparative figures from which they
could satisfy themselves as to the facts.
For few years, it is true, the balance of
trade was against this country. Our pro-
tective tariff system did not work as well as
it was supposed it would. But bal
ance in our favor has not been as e1cep-
tionable thing as Mr.. Hayes would have
had us believe. A statistican has recently
compiled table giving the imports and ex-
ports of this country from the time of it's
establishment to the present. From this
statement we find that as early as 1880 we
exported three millions more than we i'm
ported. Ten years later, the imports in the
meantime having been in excess of the ex-
five millions in favor of the United States.
Again in 1942, 1S43 and 1874, the same ocn-
dition of trade existed, the balance in favor
being about twenty seven millions. In 1847
we find considerable excess of exports, and
also in 1851. Pierce's administration did not
produce beneficial results in that direction,
but Buchanan's balanced the account by an
exhibit of more than a hundred millions
of excess of exports over imports. During
Lincoln's administration the balance was on
the other side of the ledger, but Johnson'a
resulted in our favor to the amount of more
than three hundred and fifteen millions of
dollars. Ever since that time, with the ,ex=
ception of one year, the balance of tr.de has
been in favor of the United States for
twenty-six out of the forty nine years. The
Republican party may deserve the credit fol
this state of affairs, but we can hardly see
where their claim comes in. The tide had
set in long before that party came into ex
istence, and the natural development of the
| conntrv has rnainfaina1 n avnr since IT. ii

With the DemCcfatlc party. Inc nOmlna-
ton of Remelin, to represent the German
element in Hamilton county, is ridiculous.
Nothing weaker could have been done. The
unanimous nomination of the majority of
the men on the ticket shows of the Democ-
racy themselves that after Ewing's nomina-
ton the subsequent proceedings interested
them no more.
The Democracy of Ohio have been taught
nothing by the great and shining fact of re-
sumption. They go on with their old fool
ishness as if denented. It is especially dis
graceful and humiliating in them to combat
resumption, accomplished, because they, in
other days, professed hard money doctrine.
Now they are for rags and opposed to gold
and silver, and would have rags enough to
be cheap. The demand that the govern
ment shall issue paper money dir. ct is q di-
rect blow at resumption. Replace the
national bank notes with greenbacks and re-
sumption cannot stand.
