Yesterday To-day.

The particular feature of the market for Govern
ment bonds during the week has been the great ac-
tivify and the advance in the new four per cents
The reasons Tor this great demand have been al
ready referred To and no new causes nave since
been acting, but the opinion seems to
be general that what were thought to
be the extreme predictions of some of the
dealers that the bonds would sell at 1O5-will be
verified before July /. The other varieties were
more freely traded IN and advanced, but to-day the
market had quIe; tone. The following are the

cities, notably Hartford, the authorities have es
tablished stone yards just as we did in the winter
oflS7677 where tramps are called on for days
labor In return for nights lodging.
Ofcourse this resolute policy on the part Of oth. .
or States will call for the same sort of legislation
at Columbus In order that we may protect our.
selves from those drones driven from the Eastern
hives. No matter what the notifications, the i'm
position on the American people has about reach.
ed that point where laws Of some kind will be en-.
acted and intelligent concerted action by all the
States must finally be able to handle this fast
growing social disease Is there anybody In this
broad land who would oppose the establishment
of whipping posts TO aid In the correction of these
footsore thieves

DISCUSSION AT LOUISVILLE.


Mr.. William McKimm one Of our solid farmers
and we'll read, sensible man, has accepted the
challenge of Solomon P, Wilson, also farmer Of
very windy breed, to discuss the question -
ReSoIUed, That the principles OF the Democratic
party are detrimental to the best interests of the
country" The talk is to come off in Keim's Hall
on Saturday evening Of this week. 1t is not long
since this second Solomon was disguised with
Grant Republicanism. We fear Mr.. Wilson never
knew Democratic principles, nor where to look
for them, They are to be found In the Constitu.
ton Of the United States and the Bible. Their
object is to establish justice, which involves
equality Of rights before the law. This is the gol
den principle of sound politics ana includes the
golden rule Of morality -"Do unto others as ye
would others should do to you"
of course the Republican party In power has
never recognized these principles They legislate
ior the few, bestowing special privileges, to the
robbery and injury OF labor and honest business.
Republican rule has been despotic, totally disre.
garding the rights and the liberties of the people,
and opposing equal laws and impartial justice
Most intquitOusy have the Republican party
leaders In power piled up the Public debt without
tull and fair consideration. Most infamous, also
mas been their course on the currency; their tariff
system is only another name for robbery,
