We print, elsewhere, the message OF ex-
President Hayes vetoing the 8 per cent.
funding bill. The bill was a good one.
1t contemplated the reduction of the rate
of interest from 5 and 6 per cent. to 8
per cent on over six hundred million
dollars of the public debt. and arranged
the option so that the government could,
it the revenues justified lt.pay the entire
amount off in SIX or eight years. Fur
Their. it re-enacted the law up to 1874,
which prevented national banks from
surrenderlng their circulation at once,
thus producing a dangerous contraction
in the currency and it required the banks
to shoulder part of the burden OF refund
ing in return for the many privileges
accorded them by the general govern
ment. The rate of interest and the re-
strictive measures %displessed the banks,
and they vent systematically to work to
terrorize congress by a sudden surrender
OF over $17, 900. 900 OF circulation, which
came very near producing a panic. The
democrats persisted In the face OF the
ilibustering of the republicans and pass
the bill. President Hayes vetoes it, and
the animus of the veto may be found In
these words FL cannot but regard the
9th section of the bill as a step IN the di-
rectlon of the destruction of the national
banking system OF the country.
No safer or more beneficial banking sys-
tenn was aver established" So here we

60 to the country. On the n side is
the republican party. solidly supporting
= money power. whose existence depends
upon a perpethation of the national debt ;
on the other side is the democratic par
ty. as solidly asserting that the debt is a
curse to the country, out of which syn
dicates and bank rings fatten at the ex-
pense of the tax-paying people. and that
both must be- wiped out. The banks
have only fastened their doom by show
ing the danger of the power which they
possess, and they are not strengthened,
IS they may imagine, by the fact that
the dominant party has shown itself to
be their servile tool.

It Is obviously impossible for . news
paper to agree upon all points with all
of Its readers. 1t is safe to say that up
on almost any original proposition laid
before twenty men there will be at
least q dozen opinions, and, as the news
paper a only Conveniently hold one
opinion at a time, it is hardly likely
that it can coincide with each OF the
twenty arblters. What the public has
a right to expect Is that the opinions OF
a newspaper shall be honest Ones, form
ed from the best lights before 1t. It is
the TACT that the newspaper has greater
opportunities for informing itself which
generally brings the mass of Its readers
to its view, not the superiority Of its
editorial writer's. The Intelligencer
upon all public questions freely offers
the use of its columns to those who may
differ from it, as we'll as to those who
desire to, aid 1t BY sustaining its posi-
tons. 1t has no cause at heart which
light a injure. 1t recognizes the fact
that in the multitude of counsel there is
wisdom. Jefersonian In its instincts
and aspirations it has confidence in the
sagacity Of the masses. and believes in
getting as close as possible to the best
thought and sentiment OF the people.
No one need fear that we shall be re
~luctaut to print opinions at variance
with our own. II there Is anything ii
our course which our readers disagres
to, we invite them to say so. Between
US we shall be likely to find the truth.

We print on the outside OF this issue
the speech for which Michael Davitt's
t,cket-of.leave was revoked. 1t will be
hard for u readers, accustomed as
they are to free speech, to find IN 1t
anything to justify the course OF the
English government in imprisoning
Mr.. DavItt. The speech is the indig-
nant protest of an earnest man against
what he deems IN iniquitous system
There is not an incendiary word in 1t.
Instead OF advising = resort to force'
violence or crime, he exhorts his coun-
trymen to abstain from them all. The
speech is not only admirable In ms
respect, but it is a sample OF clear,
terse torcible English. Mr.. Davitt. un-
like the chief of the Land League. MIR.
Parnell, is a Roman Catholic. he Is
the son of a tenant farmer. and was
born at Straid. near Castlebar. in the
county of Mayo. in the year 1s4S. his
father was evicted in 1851. and the fam
ily went to reside in England. They
settled in Lancashire, where they re-
NAMED for twenty five years. Michael
Davitt went to work in . cotton mill at
Washington, near Manchester, at the
age of nine, and he was q year at tina
labor when his right arm got crushed
by the mill machinery, ne~cessitsting its
amputation at the shoulder. For tlVe
years after he attended the Wesleyan
school in Haslingden, and at fifteen got
employment as letter carrier and book
keeper. In 1870 he Was sentenced by
Chief-Justice Cookburn to fifteen years
penal seryitude for telonious treason. in
having in charge arms for the Fenians.
On the 18th OF December, 1877, he was
released from prison on . ''ticket-of-
leave" as 1t IL called, or license to 60
at large. which does not convey q par
don. and remained at liberty until a few
days ago, when this permit was revsk-
ed, and he was remanded to Dartmoor
prison. To American minds this nm
necessary severity, exercised for no vic
lation of law, for no infammable Ian
guage. will seem a weak and pusillani-
nous act. A government which fears
freedom of speech, which cannot stand
such criticism ~ Mr.. Davitt bestowed
upon it needs radical reformation, and
| that in short order. -
