THE Democrats who take the stump
in Ohio aud elsewhere this fall, will
not be disposed to waste all their time
to crafty John Sherman in discussing
financial issues and counting his tall
columns of figures. The people don't
care a continental for Johns figures
now. The living issues sent down by
Congress and the Fraudulent Presi.
dent, are those which claim the atten-
tion of the hour. The doctrine Of
Capitalization avowed by the Republi-
can leaders in Congress, and the at
tempt of the Executive to seize the
Legislative functions and enforce sup
plies to pay for soldiers and executive
police to control the votes of the peo-
pie are now the attraction, and cannot
be obscured under issues of less i'm.

Gently brought to light by the publi-
cation of the report of Mr.. Glover,
chairman of the committee charged
with the investigation of the Treasury
Department. These revelations can
not be Laughed out of court" nor
answered by mere abuse Of the chair
man. The committee deal in facts and
evidence, and when the investigation
shows, among other corrupt practices
and irregularities, that in the Presi-
dental campaigns of 1868, 1872 aud
1876, there was large fraudulent
issue of greenbacks, amounting to
sl9,0O0,000, put in circulation and
proved to have been printed from the
original plates in the Treasury De
partment-that this circulation was
kept afloat for months and the Treas
ury statements falsified to cover the
fraud, il seems to us more is demanded
than sneers or abuse. The Glover in
dictment is plain, and the pleading to
it must be equally so to satisfy the
public. That this fraudulent issue of
greenbacks went largely into the cor
ruption election funds, is strengthened
by the fact, that after each Presiden-
tial election the public were notified
from the Treasury Department that
counterfeits were in circulation so we'll

be absolutely necessary, as the coolest
winter does not seem to be sufficient
to absolutely exterminate it. We

the fever will spread to other places
