Ne the workingmen of the Democracy

years ago OF having married his wife's

tMiy Of 1859 while the majority fer
Asrest Of the ticket was over q thous-

that be makes an energetic and live
representative and II may also be true
that the opposition TO him In his own
party is grourdless and vindittive, but
that does not do away with the fact
that lie was unpopular and could
wing no strength to the ticket, and
Nominating him simply because Della

majority to fall back upon is like plac.

Except on the financial questions,
Gen. Weaver, the Greenback candidate
for President, Is no doubt as much of a
Republican as he ever was. And on
those issues the misfortune with him is
that he adhered to the Republican party
until ii had inflicted all the evils which
its legislation in the interest Of the priv
LEGGED classes, had brought upon the
country. He supported Grant in 1868,
and opposed the Democratic party, which
was pledged to the payment Of the bond
ed debt, according to the original con-
tract, in coin or legal tenders green
backs) Grants first act was to sign
the bill TO change the contract so as to
make it payable in coin exclusively. He
voted for him again in 1872, and in 1873
his favorite signed the bill demonetizing
silver, thus violating the second con-
tract by taking from the people the
right to pay the debt in that coin
and restricting them to gold, at
eral Weaver aided and abetted by his
support Of the Republican party, that
entire brood Of iniquities which it has
perpetrated upon the country in the
interest Of the privileged classes. 1t
was not until 1878. that the scales fell
from his eyes and he saw the enormi-
ties of which he now explains During
all this time, the Democratic party in
Congress was resisting them with all the
strength they were capable Of WELD
ing but Gen. Weaver so far from com
ing to their relief, gave to the other
side, whatever influence he possessed
That he has abjured his Republicanism
except 50 far as it relates to the cur
rency question, we are not permitted to
believe, for the reason that in his letter
Of acceptance he commends the ''pure
Republicanism' Of Lincoln and Thad-
deus Stevens. To show his enmity to
Southern interests it is only necessary
to refer to "A speech delivered by him in
Congress, in which he deprecated the
for the building of the
Eads Jetties at the mouth Of the Mis-
sissippi river, saying that it "forced our
g industries to pay an annual interest
upon the very water that flows
g through the mouth Of that stream"

Senator Blatne's Testimony

Again and again we have said to the
Democrats who have abandoned their
party to build up what has been styled
the Greenback party, for the purpose Of
remcdving the ills which have been
brought upon the country by Republic
can legislation OH the currency and kin
dred measures, that the Democratic
party has given the very strongest evi-
dence Of It's opposition to that legisla-
ton, and that it Is the party to be re-
lied upon for accomplishing the desired
reforms. Here is Senator Blaine's testi-
moDy, as recently delivered before a
Maine audience in summing up the
favorite measures Of the Republican
party, he said
l. The act to strengthen the public credit in
1869
?. The act to provide for the refunding of the
PUBLIC debt in 1870; and
3. The act Toy the resumption OF specie pay
mems, passed IN 1879.
"A gainst every one Of these Ipeaeures SAID
the Senator, "tbe Democratic party offered
stern resistance. l believe J am entirely ac-
curate in saying that in neither branch Of
Congress did any of these great and essential
measures receive the support of a single De-
mocratIc vote.
LIST. The act to strengthen the pub
lie credit declared that the bonds were
payable 'in coin exclusively, thus
changing the contract between the gov
eminent and the holders thereof, which
left it optionary with the government
to pay them in coin or legal tenders.
ID The act go provide for the re-
funding Of the public debt" authorized
the issuance Of new bonds in place of
old ones, with the pledge written di-
rectly across their face that they were
payable in coin exclusively
The "act for the resumption of specie
payments was 4 measure for the forced
contraction Of the currency which
brought sweeping distress and priva-
ton upon the country-robbed labor off
its earnings and brought starvation and
wretchedness to the poor.
Senator Blaine saws the Democratic
party opposed all these ipiquities and
let it be repeated to its everlasting
praise.

The Grand Ratification Meeting and
Barbecue in Madison.

The well-tried and solid Democracy
of Madison-and that means her fair
women-as well as brave men-outdid
themselves in their demonstration in
honor Of the nomination Of Hancock
and English, at Hickory Grove, seven
miles northwest Of Canton, on the 18th.
The day was devoted 10 the good cause,
and the people Of both sexes, and all
ages and 4-9cations had turned out to
participate in its enjoyInentz. The
people Of the Immediate vicinity,
among them, Messrs. Palmer, Savage,
Moore, (notfotgetting the indispensable
DIR. Phil. Saunders deserve great credlt
for the success of the affair. A. j.
Sneed, Esq, Grand Marshal, performed
his dutie- admirably, and all went
smooth as a clock, ~ eeil as merry as

Band furnished music for the occasion,
and The excellence Of its performance
was on every toAgg.. The able and
convincing speeches Of General Lowry.
Hon. O. r. Singleton and Robert O.
ESQ embraced the whole argu-
ment of the canvass. E!r. Smith is a
for the Senatorial vacancy,
and there was one feature of his admi-
rable speech that pleased us. 1t was
his proposition to his com9e.;tor, Gen.
Greaves, Of whom he spoke in terms
deservedly kind and respectful. to sub
nit their claims to the decision OF pri-
mary election of the Democratic party,
that mode having been designated by
a Democratic county cQpNe4 ton presid-
ed over by John Handy, ESQ, a. the
most satisfactory means Of uniting upon
a candidate. This mode has been adopt

18th of September
