Dixon's Bloody Shirt.

Elsewhere we publish the New York
Worlds account of the murder of Henry
M. Dixon. We do this in preference to
giving an account from Republican paper,
because Democratic paper will not be ac-
cused by Democrats of coloring the story in
order to sustain the Republican party. The
World incorporates into its account des-
patch from the LouisriUe-Journdl, another
Democratic paper, in which Mr.. w. w.
Hughesof Yazoo thinks Dixon ga violent man
full of prejudice" and gives as proof these in
stances: 81 have seen him shoot pigeon at
mating fellow, and was liked by all the wom-
en-" From this we can judge what des-
perate scoundrel Dixon was. Mr.. Hughes
then furnishes an account of DiXon's char
actea, taken from the report of a committee
the committee, it should be remembred,
though Hughes does not say it, that was the
regular Democratic committee that drove
Dixon from the county and afterwards pro-
cured his murder. The World then goes on
to give a sketch of DiXon's career, which
will be found appended to the despatch we
reprint.
From all this Democratic testimony we
learn that Dixon was shot because he, who
had always been Democrat, became can
didate on an Independent ticket. The
charges that the committee preferred against
him were only preferred when he lett the
regular Democratic organization we have
no desire to to defend Capt. Dixon from any
of the charges brought against HIM. we
believe many, if not all, of them to be true
We have Democratic testimony that he was
ga murderer,"' "a bully" "a man OF violence

New Discovery.

To the Editor Of the Press:
Under this caption the Fryeburg correspond
ent of the Argus attempts to ridicule the opin-
ion of Hon. John p. Swasey in relation to the
statement made by him in his speech at that
place Saturday night. Inasmuch as this cor
respondent desires publicity in relation to it,
we will give the facts in regard to the contro-
versy.
Up. Swascy stated that if a man had So
600 in greenbacks and $4,000 in national
bank bills on the first day of April, the green
backs could not be taxed, but the bank notes
could This lead after meeting to heated
discussion in which Swasey gave his authority.
Finally it was left to Hon. d. r. Hastings, the
reporter of decisions, to decide. Hastings took
the matter under consideration, and after de-
liberation decided the greenbacks were taxa
BILE, and we suppose the correspondent OF the
Argus must have shared that deluson. We
suggest that the aelo discovery is that green
security We think that this decision will not
add much new lustre to the ability of the re-
porter of decisions. To those who may yet be
in doubt on this question, your correspondent
wishes to say that he has consulted able law
yers on this question, and they smile at this
legal decision and cite the authorities you do
as conclusive on the question.
The facts are, Pike, Hastings 4 Co. sold out
the great Democratic party of Oxford at Paris
to the Greenback party. We Judge one of the
considerations was that the Greenback party
should help elect A. S. Kimball, Hastings pet
for county attorney. Swasey being the Repu6-
lican candidate, and winning new friends
whenever he speaks, something must be done
to squelch him. But he don't squelch worth

[The Honest TRUTH
The Republican Prospects.

The year 1879 opened with brighter pros
poets for the Greenback panic shriekers than
they ever will have again. Even as late as the
opening of the present campaign, they IN
dulged high hopes and were loud in their
boasting.
But a few short weeks of honest and earnes
discussion have totally changed the aspect.
Never at this stage of the campaign in tins
State have we been able to discern so muci,
determination and confidence in success as tho
Republicans now fairly indulge, while tho
Greenback chieftans are correSpondingly down.
cast.
From every quarter we have good reports
They convey the cheering intelligence that tho
leaders are more earnest than for years, that
those who were lukewarm last year are work
ers this wear, that many of last years Green.
hackers have seen the fraudulent character OF
their leaders since resumption, and that many
Democrats are repudiating the truck and dlcker
by which the firm of Smith and Pillsbury pro-
pose to trade off every principle that elther
ever professed to get twist on the olnces.
The columns of the Honest Truth conlallt
many evidences of these facts; but we caln0S
print one-tenth of the cheering news IN detall.
We are justified in saying to our friends that
the Republican vote this year will be many
thousands greater than it was last year; that
half by the defections and the loss Of hard
money Democratic votes that will go directly
to Davis; that Smiths vote, even with the alu
of the ''soft' Democrats who pretend TO De ioc
Garcelon, but will swallow the coalition at the
last moment, will be greatly reduced; and that
general disgust and apathy are creeping IN
among the men who went from the Republ-
can ranks to the Greenbackers last year. In
fact the bottom is tumbling out of the truck
and dicker coalition, and many days before
election we may look back upon the Greenbaek-
Communistic party as we did at the same time
in 1872 upon the incoherent and crumbnnG
acknowledgements coalition then set up. The
bubble this year is less substantial even than
the one of 1872. That had able management
and assistance from abroad; this is forced at
home by corrupting traffic in perspective

irresponsible and characterless horde OF COM

Mr. Talbot, year ago, was greatly surprised
because some newspapers spoke OF the propo-
sition to make the treasury notes a permanent
currency as proposition for the government
to go into a banking business. The exigency
of the argument, however, has compelled him
to add to his currency bureau deposit vault.
The government is to issue notes and receive
deposits, and the deposits are to be used for
redemption fund. The treasury is to be a
national bank of issue and deposit. All that
remains is to discount paper, and Mr. Talbot's
new associates, Messrs. Wright, Weaver and
De La Matyr, have bills now pending in Con-
gress for this purpose. Mr.. Talbot will proba-
bly, draw the line at discounts, but there is no
logical foothold anywhere between the accept
ance or rejection of the whole scheme.-AdceT-
fser.
q MR.TALBoT's plan appears in and is ap-
proved by the Eastern argus, paper so
old that, like men in their decrepitude who
delight in recounting deeds done in their
strength, it can recall its fight against ''Nick
Biddle and the Bank of the United States"
Now, it supports scheme of government
banking that goes to extremes that Biddle
never dreamed ola system beside whose
power for harm Biddle's system is as a beam
blower to a Krupp cannon.

Justice D. S. Flanders, of Monroe, made

sense Greenbackers, and would resist the at
tempt to commit them to the support OF the
Greenback ticket The Judge says:

THE Hon. G. A. Grow in his telling speech
at Cape Elizabeth Thursday evening, said
that the combination of Democrats and
Greenbackers here reminded him of the
story of the young man who responded to
his fathers suggestion that he should get
married, by saying, ''But, father, you mar
ried mother, and I've got to marry strange
gal.'' AS the Democratic party has always
fought for hard money, it seemed to the
speaker that in taking Greenback bride, it
must feel that it had got "a strange gal,
and he could conceive of no reason for the
match except the one given by the young
man, who said that he didn't marry his wife
for love of money, but did it to disgrace her
family. There can be no reasonable doubt
but what the argus is doing its best to dis
grace the Greenback party by advocating her
marriage to the battered old rake, Democ-

thing Republican Greenbackers are leav-

it as the Republicans are.

THE Aroostook Times has this sensible
comment: The following is proposed by
Senator NJ G. Butler of South Carolina as a
solution of the financial problem: 'Abolish
the National banks and repeal the ten per
centum tax the issues of Sta'e banks,
and the financial problem will be solved in
my Judgment" The result would be that
we should have State banks once more, dis
counted bills, failed banks, worthless bills,
bank panics and other Inconvenience flow
ing from such a system. The people will
not decide in favor of State banks. They
appreciate too we'll the advantages of a Ma
tional bank currency to do that.

E. II. COVE in his address to Greenbackers
speaks of The IGNORANCE, prejudice. and
poverty of the people," Let us on the
strength of this declaration, denounce him
as naughty aristocrat, a land-shark, an en-
emy of the people 1t is true the words
quoted above are wrested from their con-
text and made to bear meaning entirely
different from that Mr. Cove intended to
convey But what of that? The Green
hackers take sentences from the speeches Of
Republicans, dislocate them from their con-
nection. and so distort or reverse the mean
ing the sentences were intended to convey.
But the Greenback papers don't tell their
readers they are guilty of Misrepresentation.
They try to keep their dishonesty concealed.
