Mr.. Burrows Illustrates.

Representative Burrows, of Michigan in his
speech at the Republican reunion in Madison.
Wis, said 81 cannot understand this fiat
business. can understand how piece of
paper is perfectly good if it is payable at some
time and to some one, but how piece of paper
stamped as money is money, cannot under
stand can understand perfectly well when
buy ticket from here to Chicago, that it is
good for something, because it is redeemable
in ride; but 1 cannot understand how the
ticket itself is the ride, and nobody but mod
ern Greenback fiat-money man would sit down
on that ticket and think he was going tn
Chicago. [Great laughter. l can understand
how ticket into circus is good, if / can pet
into the show; but cannot understand how
the ticket is show, and nobody but modern
tiat-money man would take the ticket and
think he saw the horses going ronnd and the
whole performance. l can understand how an
order on farmer here in Wisconsin for a COW
IS pretty good, if | can get the COW; but can
not understand how the order itself is a COW
and nobody but a modern Greenback fiat
attempt to milk the order Great laughter. |
will tell you, my fellow citizens, there is no
use i'll talking about getting out of the national
debt in any way except to pay it; that is the
only straightforward way to do. To-day the
best thing that could happen to the financial
interest and the business interests would be for
Congress to pass law at its very next session
to punish with death any member of Congress
that would make a speech on finance for the
next 20years. What we want is to let it alone
and we are ON the high road to prosperity"
The Portland daily press., 1879-08-04

THE Boston Aduertiscr, which was fear
full OF the result in Maine at the opening of
the canvass, has been looking the ground
over little more carefully, and now says:
1T is evident that there has been a revival
OF Republican interest to an extent that
fairly surprises the managers of the canvass.
The meetings, of which many are held in
various parts of the State, are attended by
large crowds, and the speakers are well re-
ceived. These are not the only significant
facts in regard to the Republican meetings
Last year the assemblies were frequently
interrupted by Greenbackers, who had
learned from the club organizers few
catch phrases, and fancied themselves mas
tiers OF the whole system of finance. This
aggressiveness has wholly disappeared, not
from lack of disposition to interrupt, but be-
cause there is nothing to say. The Repub-
licans have made large and valuable gains in
the shape of reconverted Republicans They
come openly by scores in some towns, and
IN others, while they make no secret of
their intentions, they do not quite care to
advertise their return to all the world. Re-
ports of gains like these are, we know, to be
received generally with caution, but they are
numerous and too well specified as to place
and number of reconverts to be rejected as
imaginary
