II is fact that there Is nothing in General
Hancock's financial record to discredit the
assertion of a eading Greenbacker IN the
West, printed elsewhere, that the present
Democratic candidate was ready to accept the
Greenback nomination for the Presidency.
The statement that General Hancock wrote
such letter may be false, but there is MOTH
ing in his past views to raise such a presump-
ton. His only record upon finance prior TO
this campaign is to be found in his letter We
hemently approving the platform of 1868.
That platform demanded greenback initiation,
and reputation of the contract with
respect to the taxation of Government bonds.
Since that time up to the day OF his nomination
his only other expression of views upon the
finances was in favor OF unlimited silver coin
age. This was not publicly made, but the
statement has never been denied. so far as
we know. Lastly, General Hancock has hailed
as " glorious" supposed victory, which was
obtained, if at all, upon platform winch de-
manded that greenbacks shall be legal
tender for Government bonds, and that
100000. 600 debased silver dollars shall be
coined This is General Hancock's whole
financial record. The Gree nbackcrs OF Maine
have hailed the results in that State as
Endorsements" of their principles" and
General Hancock has called those results
GLORIOUS" General Weaver, General Han
cock, and the Greenback party of Maine are
of one mind about them But is 1t quite
honorable for so good Greenbacker as Cen
eral Hancock has proved himself, to be
Incorporating behind the Cincinnati plat
form, which processes to demand "hOnest
money" General Weaver represents Cen
eral Hancock's financial creed, and the latter
could make an entirely consistent record by
Withdrawing in General Viewers favor and
giving him his vote.
