Will Democrats, who are green
hackers, allow themselves to be in
weighed into the greenback party, by
the cunning Of few malcontents
and soreheads who have deserted the
Democratic party, for no other pur-
pose than revenge? They do not
hope to succeed, but they do hope the
defeat Of the Democratic nominees,
by cresting division in Democratic
ranks if they ecu, and are ready to
go into any kind of a combination in
order TO defeat the party in which
they were once ardent and en.husi
astic workers. They dislike to join
the Republicans outright, and there.
fore choose the third party to accom-.
plish their desires, viz: the defeat Of
Of the Democratic party. Demo.
Gratis we warn you to steer clear
of this third party. It will do you
no good; will bring no relief; will
never accomplish anything in the
Nation, but may lead you and the
country into serious trouble. If you
have grievances to settle, do SO in
side of your own party.

REMARKS BY THE EDITOR.

REMARKS BY THE EDITOR.
Above we present to our readers,
an abstract from the records of our
present County Court, showing that
the total cost Of running, the Court as
it now exists, for the year 1878, inclu-
ding the per diem Of Justices, pay Of
Grand and Petit Jurors, Page and
witnesses for the State, amounts in
the aggregate to the sum of Tue thou
sand three hundred and airty-fredollars
and ninetyfre centsi The per diem
of the Justices, alone, sitting as a
Court amounts to the sum Of Eight
hundred and fourteen dollars, being
sl4.00 in excess of the salary of the
County Court Judge, contemplated
under the Bill to alter and modify
the said Court in this county, which
Bill will be found on the fourth page
of this paper. We venture the as
sertion, that competent man, one
discreet and learned in the law, could
transact all the business done by the
County Court in 1878, within three
weeks, thereby saving hundreds of
dollars to the county every year
Such will be the result if the people
will vote to adopt the new Court
Bill. Under the present system the
county expenses are increasing for
each year, and particularly in the
per diem of the Justices. If we adj
opt the Court now proposed and sub
mitted, and elect good Judge and
upright Commissioners, there is no
question but what the county will
be managed much more economical.
ly and more satisfactorily than at
present. Besides, under this new
arrangement, the salary Of the
Judge can never exceed $500 a year,
while under the present system no
limit is fixed for the Justices, as to
the amount they may receive in a
year. Our advice is to vote solidly
for the Bill, thus wiping out the
present unsatisfactory and expen.
sive system. By so doing you will
confer upon the people of this county
a safer, speedier, surer and cheaper
mode of disposing of the rapidly ac-
cumulating legal business of the
county.

The political current in this coun-
ty is setting strongly in favor of the
Democratic ticket. From every quar-
ter we learn that the Democrats are
united, and working harmoniously
for the success of the ticket at the
head of this paper. Thinking Re
publicans, who have the interest of
the county more at heart than that
Of defeat of the Democratic party,
by fusion with DR.. Barbee's Green
back party, will vote with the DEM
ocrats in the coming election.

The Warner Silver BIN.


The Democrats have passed the
Silver Bill and unless the President
yetoes it, it viii soon be in operation.
1t provides for an extensive and
enlarged minting Of silver, also for
the issue Of certificates in sums as
low as IS for all the uncoined silver
that may be deposited in the various
sub-treasuries throughout the United
States.
1t will be seen that this meets the
views Of all persons or all parties
whose watch.word has been "more
money, or cheaper money" 1t does
away with all the Drag and boasting
of the resumptionists, simply because
these certificates arc redeemed before
they are issued, and the United
States Government can pay itself for
coming such silver with the 10 per
cent. alloy that is put in all United
States coinage. For example, par
ty takes 1000 ounces of silver to the
sub-treasury, and receives certificates
for it in such sums and of such de.
nominations as he may be able to
use IN his daily business. They will
pass as money everywhere and will
be better than bank notes or green
backs. The Government sends the
coin to the minis and coins it into
silver dollars, adding 10 per cent.
alloy, and when the certificates are
presented for payment, pays them
with the identical silver, if it chooses,
that has been deposited. Meanwhile
the people at large have used the pa
per certificates as money and the
Government has made profit on the
mintage. 1t seems to us that this is
agreat improvement over any sys.
tenn that is now in operation, or that
has been suggested by the opponents
Of the Democratic party. 1t does not
cost anything. No interest is paid
on bonds. No loss can be sustained
by the holders of certificates as the
sub-treasury keeps the money in
hand at all times to pay them. They
cannot depreciate as greenbaeks or
bank notes would, if issued in excess
Of the wants of trade.
The production Of the mines of
this country in silver alone is over
slO0,0O0:OO0a nnually, and ifthis plan
is adopted and the Government gets
the minting of it all, we will have
circulation in 10 years of 81, 100000
600, from this source alone. Could
any advocate of "more money or
cheaper money" suggest anything to
compare in volume or quality to
this? 1t contains the two great es.
sential elements that are sought for
by all political economists, viz:
quantity without depreciation, or
quantity and strength.
If the Democratic party is com
PEELED to wait until after the next
election before they succeed in get
ting this bill into practical operation,
We hope and trust that all sensible
men will investigate this matter for
themselves before casting their votes
against the Democratic party.
a vote for the Republican party,
means resumption in gold, and gold
for the standard of value, and also
the perpetuationof the present bank
ing system. A vote for the Green
back party means irredccmaNe and de
preciated paper money-and this
paper money controlled in volume
and value. by a lot of sharks and DO.
litical gamesters.
