DURING the next year government bonds
to the amount OF S772, ,77G,70O will fall
due. By the original contract these
bonds were payable in greenback', but by
subsequent act Of congress, glccnback
payment was repudiated on the grounds
that as the grecabacks constituted gov
crnment Indebtedness, one debt could not
be paid by another. This was John Sher'
mans logic. Now John Sherman asks
congress to pay the remaining 5-20 bonds.
as he has the balance Of them, in another
debt of 4 per c.lt bonds, IA per cent
notes will pay debt, why will rot nc
per cent. notes.

A BOOM FOR BLAINE.

San FRANCISCO, April 29.-The Republican
State convention met at Sacramento this after
noon. Geo. f. Baker was chosen temporary
chairman. The mention of Blaine in his ad-
dress was greeted with great applause and
three cheers. The committees on
platform and resolutions, creden-
tials and permanent organization
and order of business were appointed, and a
recess taken. Upon reassembling, permanent
organization was effected. The report of the
committee on resolutions reaf1irms adherence
to the Republican national platform Of 1876,
and the State platform of 1879, demands
continuance of the policy of resumption, the
maintenance and enforcement of all amend
ments to the constitution of the United States
and protection of all citizens regardless of color
or condition in their rights, and free and fair
elections in all States. After plank in favor
of public schools comes the following:
RESOLVED, That we will cordially support the
nominees of the Republican national conven-
tion, whoever they may be, but We know that
the electoral votes of our State are
certain to be given for the Republi-
can ticket if James G.. Blaine be
nominated. Wherefore we do hereby instruct
our delegates to the Republican national con-
vention to vote as a unit, frst last and all the
time for James G.. Blaine, and to use all hon
orable means to secure his nomination for
President of the United States.

PLATFORM CORRECTION.


COLUMBUS, April 29.-The platform of yes
terday's Republican State convention was sent
just as delivered to the press agent by the
chairman on resolutions, but in the hurry OF
the moment the chairman omitted to deliver
one scrap of manuscript containing two I'M
portant lines, when taken in connection with
the resolution referring to Secretary Sherman.
The full resolution referred to, as adopted Dy
the convention, read as follows:
ReSolved, That the great ability, invaluable
services, long experience, pure and exalted
character and unwavering fidelity to Republi-
can principles of our distinguished fellow-citi-
zen, John Sherman, entities him to the highest
honors and confidence of the Republican par
ty of Ohio and of the country. His matchless
skill as inancier has mainly contributed to
accomplish the invaluable and difficult work OF
resumption and refunding the public debt,
and made him the trusted representative IN
public life of the business interest of all
classes of the American people. He has been
trained from the beginning of his public life
in advocacy of the rights of men, and no man
has been more unfaltering in his demand that
the whole power of the government should be
used to protect the colored people of the South
from unlawful violence and unfriendly local
legislation, and in view of his SER
vices to his country, and his eminent
ability as statesman, we, the Republican par
ty of Ohio, present him to the Republican par
ty of the country as fit candidate for Presl-
dent, and respectfully urge upon the Republi-
can convention at Chicago his nomination.
ReSolved, That the delegates at large, chosen
by this convention are hereby Instructed to
vote for and use all honorable means to secure
the nomination of John Sherman by the ma
tional Republican convention at Chicago for
President and the district delegates are re
spectfully requested to vote for him.

STAMP TAX.

BERLIN, April 29.-The reichstsg to-day de-
cided to refer the imperial stamp bill to COM
mittee. Most of the speakers were opposed to
taxing receipts of postoffice orders. The sec
retary of the treasury warmly supported the
proposal, urging that Bismarck pointed out
last year that the imperial revenues must be
increased to an extent that would enable the
empire to apportion to the seperate states from
its own resources the sums necessary to effect
reforms in their several systems of taxation.

It is probable the reichstae, which has been

tertained whether some of the deputies
will ever again assemble. Bismarck has de-
clared to some political friends his firm inten-
tion to go to the house when the commercial
treaty with Austria is being debated, for
the purpose of officially expressing his views
on the political situation. Bismarck deeply
and sincerely regrets the victory of the liberals
in England.

To the Voters of the Third Precinct, Fourth
Yard.
To the Editor of the Globe.
Three years since when G. W. Griggs
entered the council there was not graded
street nor sewer in your ward, and yet the
rate of taxation upon your homes was about
four per cent. Since then your taxes have
been reduced, your streets improved and
the value of your real estate greatly en-
hanced. For several years previous to his
election Mr.. Gates A. johnson, his present
opponent, was your alderman. The question
for you to decide next Tuesday at the polls
is, shall you vote for Griggs and reduce tara
ton, or will you vote for his opponent and
return to the aoild, RECKLESS policy actich
characterized has former administration !?
Some persons may oppose Griggs
because he voted to reduce
salaries of the employees of the city govern
ment and thus reduce the burdens of taxa
ton upon the hard working men of the
ward. Will not the tax payers sustain him
at the polls and thus place the seal of con-
demnation upon the extravagant waste of
their money as in times past and which will
be again inaugurated if his opponent is
elected. If it is your desire to place your
ward at the mercy of unscrupulous contract
ors, you will vote for his opponent. If you
favor an economical administration of the
city government, with low taxes and we'll i'm
proved streets, then you will see that Griggs'
name is on your ticket. If elected, and
there is no reasonable doubt of it, he will
save you in the future as in the past, in the
way best calculated to advance the interests
of every citizen in the ward.

Letter from Mr.. Manning.


HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. April 29.-A gentle
man of this city has received from Col. Man
ming letter which will be published to-mor-
row, containing full statements of facts in
the Donnelly- -Washburn contest, out of which
the Manning-Springer controversy arose. After
briefly alluding to the merits of said contest
Col Manning details the conversation which
Springer had with him as to the action of the
| majority of the subcommittee in throwing out
the returns from Isanti county and Springer 8
assurance to him that he would
vote in said committee to
sustain that action and labor to convince
| the doubling committeeman of its correctness.
Col. Manning then compares the statements
made by Mr.. Springer to Armfeld, Etter, the
New York Tribune reporter, Speer Weaver and
himself and demonstrates the truth of the
| following five charges with which his letter
concludes:
First-In making utterly false statements to
me as to his position in the Donnelly- -Washburn
case, and in deceiving me time and again as to
the vote he proposed to give on the resolution
to seat Mr.. Donnelly.
| Second-In pretending to me that he was
working with Messrs. Phister, Speer and
Weaver to induce them to vote to seat DON
nelly, when he was really working with them
| to induce them to vote against seating Don.
nelly.
| Third-In making pair with Mr.. Calkins,
which was really bundle of falsehoods and
| double-dealings.
Fourth-In pretending to the reporter of the
New York Tribune, on April LIST, that he was
too good and pure to permit the election COM
| mittee to be used as machine to manufacture
Democratic President, while on the same
day he assured Mr.. Armfeld that he was ready
to have voted at any time to have seated Dom
nelly, and so have helped 20 make Democratic
President if only his vote would have ac-
complished that result.
| Fifth-In declaring to Mr.. Cslkins that he
was ready to vote in favor of seating Donnelly
whenever his vote would not seat him, but at
no other time, while he told Gov. Armfeld that
he was ready to vote for Donnelly whenever
his vote would seat him, but at no other time.

CHICAGO April 29.-Oables lower again to-

breaking prices from the closing of last even
ing cent and half on May. The deal was
very sensitive and the changes OF opti ons,
May into June. was freely done at 215c dis
count early in the session, but the inal is &c.
The gang were free buyers of both options and
the sickness was soon over; selling rapidly up
to $l.13% for May: $1.1015 for June; $1.05
for July. However the wind, upon the curb,
was q trifle sickish again, on canards, suppose.
