The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-09-18

felt no restraint from insufficient appropria-
tions in the great branches of the Government"
Mr.. Sherman, In explaining the enormous ap-
of s194, ,0O0, 600 for the ordinary ex-
penses Of the Government In 1874, says that,
Z the appropriations for that year were pur-
posely largely increased as q means of relief
from the effect Of the panic" Sympathetic Mr.
How good it was in you and your
party to come to the relief Of the struggling IN
dustries of the country But the fact is, the
session of Congress which ended March 4,
1S73-six months before the panic occurred.
The excessive appropriation was due, there
fore, to extravaganza, and not to sympathy for
the people.
Messrs. Sherman and Schurz are distressed
with apprehensions of danger to the Govern
ment from the Confederate Brigadiers They
cry out against the caucus, as though it was an
invention Of these Southern men to control the
Democratic party and thus rule the country.
They have themselves sat in more caucuses
than they have hairs on their heads. What
danger is there from Confederate Brigadiers?
Not one OF them has proposed any measure in
Congress toimpair any settlements of the war.
They have over and over again declared that
they and their people accept those settlements
as final and never to be disturbed.
What more is demanded? Nothing. The
Republican party has not asked for more The
