Give Credit When it is Due.

During the past nineteen and a
half years the public debt has been
reduced by 81, 350,072,9 1925.
The reduction in the annual inter
est charge has been $l04,528,102, or
more than two-thirds.
The average rate Of interest on
the public debt in 1865 was 81 per
cent; it is now 81 per cent
The credit of the government is
now SO good that it can readily fund
any part of its debt, which becomes
due in 3-per.cent. bonds, payable at
its pleasure.
The Chicago Times, referring to
these facts says:
Besides taking credit to themselves for pay
ing their public debt at such n rate the Ameri-
can people are entitled 10 take credit to them
selves for the manner in which they have done
it, At one time there was an agitation for the
payment of the 500 bonds in deprecated green
backs. The agitators were signauy defeated,
the Public Credit act was passed in 1869, and
from first TO last every bond that has been paid
has been paid in strict accordance with the
agreement of the government. This fact Is
creditable to both the intelligence and the hon
esty of the American people. Again, great
grecnback imitation craze mt one time swept
over the country and for n while il looked rs
though the country would be swept into the
gulf of reputation through the process of di-
luttng the currency. But happily the good
sense OF the people asserted itself once more,
and, after desperate battle with the conscious
and unconscious repudiators the Resumption

porated in the Democratic National
platform of 1868, on which Horatio
Seymour was nominated. 1t was
met by the firm and unambiguous
declaration of the Republican party
in favor of the payment of the bonds
in honest money.
The "great greenback craze" that
swept over the country at later
day found its only effective resist
ance in the Republican party.
There were greenback Republicans
and hard money Democrats, but in
the Republican party the hard mon
ey men were paramount, while the
greenbackers controlled the Demo
cratic party. "The desperate battle
with conscious and unconscious re-
pudiators" was fought and won bv
the Republicans. The Democratic
platform of 1876, on which Tilden
and Hendricks were defeated, called
for the repeal of the Resumption
act. 1t is due to the good faith, the
fidelity to obligations, and the fnan-
cial good sensss of the Republican
party that the country can to-day
boast that it has emerged with hon
or from an experiment which, in
every previous instance when ii was
tried, had ended in reputation.
1t is well to remember these things
just now when there is much talk
about "the Republican rascals," and
when the party which resoluteiy and
persistently opposed the honest fnan-
cial policy of the Republicans is
proposing to bless the country with
administrative reform. MiI,cau-

The Republicans, and everyone
else, should bear in mind that J. T..
Jones is man of marked ability for
County Judge, and has good thor
ough knowledge of the law; that he
has shown himself possessed of
strong sterling qualities, and is hon
est, charitable, and friend to the
widow and orphan. This reputation
ne has fully and substantially estab-
hshed throughout Iowa county. Mr.
Jones is temperance man, but not
a third partyist. The office is one
of the most important in the county,
and not one will arise and assert
that it is unsafe in his hands. These
few remarks it will be well for vot-
ers to bear in mind at the coming
Judicial election.
