the city over the prospect of military inter-
ference, and the two military companies in
the city, constituting the state national

Again.
WASHINGTON, July 7.-George o. Jones.
chairman of the national greenback party,
has issued an invitation requesting all per-
sons who desire to aid in reorganizing the
national greenback party to meet in their re-

delegate and one alternate to attend the ma
tional greenback convention called to meet
at Cincinnati September r. The invitation
is extended to those in favor of distinct
American policy regarding, its finances, who
believe that full legal tender notes, green
backs, issued by the government for value
received in promoting the general welfare
constitute the money which marks our ad
vancing civilization, makes the best money
the world ever saw and should become the
permanent circulating medium of the Amer
lean people, the life of whose free
passH they ssarns saved their and shss
should be perpetuated to keep these
great truths constantly before the people.
Those who believe with the prophet of old,
that money answereth alksthings,' and that
no other reform can be wisely considered nor
honestly determined until tho great economic
wrongs brought about by bad legislation
have been corrected and the money question
forever settled in the interest of the whole
people; and vino are willing to act in accord
ance with the spirit of the resolution passed
by the constitutional congress of 1773, viz:
mot to eat, drink, wear nor use anything
manufactured in Great Britain; nor after
one year trade with any one who deals in
goods brought here under the British flag"
The call says that the reorganized party
will also advocate the payment of public
debts according to the original contract under
which they were issued; the encouragement
of the American merchant marine and of
home industries the limitation of debts of
corporations to the amount of stock actually
paid up, for the restriction Of dividends of
