All signs in the political armament
point to general dissolution of the green
back party. Resumption and prosperity
killed it. In the darkest days of business
depression the greenback theory took
some hold upon the popular mind because
it promised relief. The people wanted
money, and greenbackism promised to
supply everybody. The party was strong
est at the beginning of its existence. Its
ideas of government finances could not
bear the light of discussion. Just as the
few men who had nourished the bantling
known as the rag baby" began to reap
some reward in the way of political hon
ors from it. resumption became a fixed
fact, prosperity returned, the idle obtained
work. and the party collapsed. In Indiana.
where the greenbackers polled nearly 49,
600 votes in 1873, it is difficult for them to
rally men enough to make up tickets. here
and there. The leaders have generally
announced their return to either the repub-
lean or democratic party, and all reports
agree that the greenbackers will only poll,
this year. few thousand-5,OOO or 5000
votes in the State. It is the dissolution
of the greenback party which chiefly in
vests the result in Indiana with so much
doubt. 1t is almost impossible to tell
which party will get the larger proportion
of those who were greenbaekers at the
last important election. - Washington

From the Honest Truth.
Facts for Farmers.

Ever since it existed, the Democratic
party has been the party of free trade
inviting competition from foreign panper
labor, ruinous to our home industries.
Ever since it existed, the Republican
party has stood as barrier against this
destructive Democratic policy
The Democratic policy has been con-
cealed under various masks, because the
term free trade has alarmed the indus
trial people of the country, but the people
should no longer be deceived by these
devices. One of the most dangerous OF
these masks is the so called tariff for
revenue plank in their platform, which
is more dangerous than absolute tree
trade, because it discriminates against
American industries and strikes blow
direct at American labor.
What is the meaning of tariff tor
revenue only?'' 1t is the levying OF
duties only upon such imported articles
as are not produced in this country. Tea
and coffee are not American productions ;
therefore. say these Democratic political
economists, we will place high tariff
upon them Potatoes and wool are Amer
lean productions; therefore, they say
again, we will not place any tariff on
them. but admit them freely to compete
with the products of our farmers in our
own markets.
The effect of this policy is that while
the government gets its revenue easily, II
robs the producer of his revenue. 1t takes
from the tax payer on both ends; it taxes
him high for his tea table necessities, and
it invites foreign competition to reduce the
profits on his farm products from thirty to
fifty per cent.
Let us illustrate:
The Republican policy of protecting
home industries, so far as it can be done,
by levying duties on foreign goods, admits
such articles as tea and coffee free, SO
that the farmer has to pay no tax for them.
The same policy directs that foreign pota-
tOtS, WuiCu arc SlaPiO PioNu|'iOiA IA
Maine, shall pay 10 cents per bushel for
the privilege of our markets. On one
hundred bushels this would be a tax OF
$500, which is an effectual protection to
the Maine farmer against ruinous compe-
tition.
On the contrary, the Democratic policy
would force the farmer to pay from 10 to
% cents per pound more than he does now
for his tea and coffee, and would strike of
the duty on potatoes entirely. thus inviting
foreign importations to such an extent as
to reduce the price, practically taking IL
cents per bushel from the home producer.
Thus by the ''free trade" ''revenue
tariff scheme, the Maine farmer would
be taxed annually, say:
For tax on tea and coffee, s 90
loss on 100 bushels potatoes, II 90
Democratic free trade tax $50 90

the Maine farmers by the levying OF a

on wool, live stock, butter, cheese, oats,

flood the great markets with the products
