Weekly Chillicothe crisis. (Chillicothe, Livingston Co., Mo.) 1878-19??, 1879-08-07

sQOAhE muI, ii ne lsn quite SO rad
ical, is a safe man. Men who are not only
conservative but also traders, are danger
GUS men, and not to be either trusted or
countenanced.
EVERY day we hear of new converts to
the greenback cause. The people are rap
idly opening their eyes to the fact that the
only hope of the country is in the success
OF greenback principles.
The greenbackers and workingmen of
New York State must stand ready to meet
charge from the enemy. The battalion
that is to move upon them is already or
ganized, armed and equipped.
Snow your colors! Hang out your
banner! Be what you are! Don't be a
hypocrite! Put out your sign! Don't
try to straddle the fence, for if you do
you'll get split clear up to your shoulders.
PORTLAND platform greenbackers say
we must have unlimited coinage of gold
and silver, because it is the money of the
world. This looks Shylockish. Wine is
the beverage of the world, but this is no
Sign that its use should be unlimited.
II is time for the people, north, south,
east and west, to unite in deprecatlng and
denouncing any and all attempts to get
up sham fights between different sections
Of the country IN order to divert public
attention from the schemes and arts of
the money sharks and political shysters
who are plotting their ruin and enslave-
ment.
WHY insist that those who do not be-
lieve in gold and silver as the standard
money, shall swallow a platform that
makes them so? This rule or ruin policy
is not in the peoples interests If the
party wants to secure the vote and in
fuence of every greenbacker for its state
and county tickets, a majority should not
-, f'"'
form down the throats Of minority.

The grcenback party should not smile
other. 1t should say to all, Come in and
ioin with us in the fight against the com.
mon enemy of the peoples interests.
Come in, not as republicans; not as Dem
ocrats but as greenbackers. So long as
any are, first, republicans or democrats
and greenbackers afterwards, they are
not grcenbackers. We want greenback-
ers.
-
WEwant something more than silver
and gold coinage to increase the money
back prosperity. We want grecnback
dollars enough to make butter the same
price it was in 1865, and that is two thou
sand millions more. We want them now
right of, and enough to retire all of our
bonds, set every industry in motion and
every laborer at work. Then laborers will
earn money with which to buy the far
mer's butter, and every thing else that he
or the mechanic has to sell.
EVERY man who gave his note or mort
gage of 500, for property in 1873, re-
ceived In lieu the equivalent OF but S66 in
about 36 per cent. and greenbacks having
become equal to gold, he who pays debt
to-day contracted in lawful money in 1873,
pays twice the value of his property, and
twice as much as the creditor is eouitably
entitled to. Hence neither gold or green.
backs are honest money to-day in pay-
ment of debts incurred FIVE wears AGO.
soLoN CHASE and other greenbackers
say privately that they believe in demoue-
tizing gold and silver, hut publicly it |
won't do to talk it, as the people are not
educated up to it. When will they ever
be, if no one talks 1t? These weakened
calf and 'alf" fellows think it is better
