'73. During these years the Green
back party as an organization came
into existence, and there ia no denying
that it had a grand and living issue to
justify its being. That issue was
sharply defined as opposition to con-
traction, and the maintenance of an
abundant circulating Medium without
regard to convertibility;and it is impos-
sible to say to-day that this would not
have been the better way.
But the Republican party adhered
with heroic pertinacity while those
hopeless years dragged heavily along,
and the result justified It's faith. Jan.
1st, 1879, found Resumption an accom-
plished fact. In other words on that
date gold and greenbacks became in
Interchangeable at par in any portion of
the country and for any purpose and so
have since remained.
Right here it would seem the mis-
sion of the Greenback party should
have ended for want of an issue upon
which to live. Right here i'm fact for
all good purposes it did end. No one
now, with a grain of sense or patriotism,
per currency, or the issue of flood of
irredeemabie greenbacks. Its only
reason for existence has passed away,
its only issue is dead, and as party it
should fold its mantle decently around
it and lie down to quiet dreams. Its
further existence can only lead to mis-
chief. Its only stock in trade is now
a senseless warfare against the Nation
al banks, and wicked attempt to
array the laboring classes against cap
ital. The TRADES of its papers and the
harangues of its orators, are in the
main but thinly disguised Nihilism-a
weak attempt to tear down, without
the will or the ability.t ito rebuild. A
very slight advance would make many
of them open enemies of law and order.
But whether this party without an
issue, chooses to retire from the field or
not one thing is certain, it will fail to
seduce any number Of thinking Re-
publicans from their allegiance to that
grand old organization which has
brought the country through all its
trials and dangers, and placed it where
it is to-day, in condition of power
and prosperity never before dreamed
of.

GARNETT, KAN, Oct. 1882.
Dear Acknowledgment to re-
quest L drop you a few lines from this
place. Garrett has her hands full this
week. Their county fair is in progress,
and they have undertaken to enter
tain the Neosho Presbytery the latter
OF which is no small undertaking on
the part of the cooks. There are forty
members and delegates present at the
meeting. After sermon last night
by Rev. w. B. Mckee, Presbytery
was constituted by the election of YOUR
correspondent as moderator. and Rev,
Bright, of Chanute, as temporary
clerk. The forenoon to-day was spent
mostly in consideration of home Mis-
sionary work in the Indian Territory.
the greater part of the territory being
within the bounds of this Presbytery.
There is special interest felt in this
work just now, on account of the fact
that the 'Indianquestionn ia one ofthe
most important in our internal affairs,
and it is believed that the true solution
OF the question is to be found i'm pre-
pairing the Indian for citizenship.
Yours In haste. T.. S. MILLER.

1t now seems likely that Senator
Plumb's presence at Topeka will not
be required this winter, in order to in
sure his return to the Senate. This is
a thing unprecedented in Kansas poll
ties, and is deserved compliment to
Col. Plumb. He is recognized in the
Senate as sound and practical man,
as his place at the head of the commit
tee on public lands indicates. He is
not an orator, but his speeches are Wig
orous, practical and convincing. The
experience of the last five years has
prepared him for even more effective
service in the future. and it is fortu-
nate, as well as an honor to the state,
that his triumphant reelection is in
sured.

eating anything that our best judg-
ment and conscience do not approve,
but intend that on all questions this
journal shall represent our honest con-
yictions regardless of consequences.
The platform of the Republican party
of Kansas commits it unreservedly to
the enforcement of the prohibitory
amendment. We regard this as the
permanent policy of the party in this
State. 1t is needless to say that we
are prepared to support it unreserved-
ly, not merely from party allegiance,
but as matter of principle and con-
viction. Aside, however, from party
or principle, the temperance issue has
now passed beyond the realm of dis
cussion. 1t stands upon the statute
books, law of the State, and it is the
plain duty of every good citizen to
work for its rigid and incorporating
enforcement.
In conclusion, we ask no indulgence.
We expect to succeed. If we fail, it
will not be for the want of good inten-
lions and honest effort.

In the Whole History of
Medicine

No preparation has ever performed such
marvellous cures, or maintained SO
wide 4 reputation, as AYERS CHERRY
PICTORIAL, which is recognized as the
worlds remedy for all diseases of the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued
series of wonderful cures in all eli
mates has made it universally known
as safe and reliable agent to employ.
Against ordinary colds, which are the
forerunners of more serious disorders,
it acts speedily and surely, always re-
lieving suffering, and often saving life.
The protection it affords, by its timely
use in throat and chest disorders,
makes it an invaluable remedy to be
kept always on hand in every home.
No person can afford to be without it,
and those who have once used it never
will. From their knowledge Of its
composition and operation, physicians
use the CHERRY PICTORIAL extensively
in their practice, and clergymen recon-
mend it, 1t is absolutely certain in
its healing effects, and will always
cure where cures are possible.
For sale by all druggists.

Judge Folger, in ringing letter,
accepts the nomination of the Repub-
licans for Governor of New York. He
shows in manly and convincing way
that he cannot consistently decline the
nomination, as many of his friends
have urged him to do. While all good
Republicans must deprecate the means
used in his nomination, they will at
the same time recognize in Judge Fol-
ger a splendid man, whose spotless
character, great ability, and popular
ity, will go far to overcome the disad-
vantages under which he enters the
campaign.

planks which are diametricaI 0pp0sites

there is Il chance to GUST the Republic

is GREENBkCXISM AN ISSUE

Az Tile CLOSE Vi Tile CIVIL WIZ III 1000,
the country was, or appeared to be in a
state of great financial prosperity.
Money in the shane of irredeemable
paper, mostly greenback, was abund-
ant and the price of all commodities
high; and notwithstanding the i'm
mense destruction of wealth during
the five years of war, the reunited ma
ton seemed on the highroad to more
rapid and amazing development than
ever before. This gratifying condition
of affairs however was short lived.
Secretary McCulloch, acting under the
accepted idea whether right or wrong,
that an inflated and irredeemable cur
rency indicates an unhealthy condition
of the body polite that can only be
cured by getting down as soon as pos
sible to a specie basis, inaugurated his
policy of contraction as the only meth
cd of closing the wide gap which then
existed between the current value of
gold and paper.
The effect Of this policy very soon
became manifest in growing stringent
cy of the money market, in gradually
declining prices, in increasing distress
and discomfort; and its logical result
was reached in the prime of '73 when
ruin and bankruptcy submerged the
entire country.
Old style political economists held
that this was the natural result of the
preceding period of imitation; that as
languor follows state of intoxication,
so the nation having been intoxicated
with a superabundance of greenbacks
must necessarily undergo a period of
depression.
On the other hand many held that
this panic and depression We're the
natural results Of McCulloch's unfortu-
nate policy of contraction and moth
ing else. That without this needless
and most pernicious reduction of the
circulating medium the misfortunes of
1873 and the following years need not
and would not have occurred. This
was the origin of. the Greenback idea,
although it was not yet organized into
a political party, and we are bound to
admit that there was in it much of
plausibility, if not of absolute truth
and right. The Greenbacker of '73
maintained that if the currency had
remained as it was in 1866 or '67, or
had been gradually expanded as the
wants of the country required, there
would have been no revulsion, that the
horrors and misfortunes of all these
years might and should have been
averted, and it is impossible to prove
that he was not right. The years in
tervening between 1873 and 1879 were
years of trouble and anxiety. The
predominant opinion in the Republic
can party was in favor of specie re-
and Jan. 1st 1879 was fixed
upon as the date when it should take
place. But in order to accomplish
this, all admitted that the country
must pass through most trying
ordeal, many indeed believed it i'm
possible without still further and
more disastrous reduction of the cur
rency and repetition with tenfold
intensity Of the dreadful experience of
