Among the earliest settlers of Mower

neVerfor one moment had the wife and

over one hundred, and there is scarcely
a meeting without several newly inter
ested children wishing to JOIN the Band
The superintendent has arranged a
pledge day. the first Friday of each
month, and changes the usual lessons for
exercises fitting the OCCASION, and some
earnest temperance worker gives ten
minutes talk instructive and interesting
to the Older as we'll as the younger ones

q government bond was q public

government bond was not payable IN.

YOU can not deny it. Now let me show
yonin plain figures the blackness of that
Legislation. The hondholaer with $43O, :
600. .oo0in gold purchased 81. 000. 900, 600 of
.greenhacks. and with the greenbacks
bought 81 coo, e0o, 900 worth bonds. Not
content with gold interest Oh the bonds.
they had the law of March Is. 1869,
passed, pledging the government to pay
the bondholders $1,000, O,000,0 900 in gold
for what cost the bonCholders only $43O,
600, 600. making a clear profit with one
stroke of the pen, of $570, 600, 900. Now
| will submit to you again the query, that
if greenhacks were good enough with
which to buy bonds. why were they not
good enough to pay them? By what law
of justice, and equity could the bond
holders demand or ask fora better money
for his bond than he paid for them John
Sherman once said the man that would do
that was an eytortionist and repudiator.
Can you call yourself one of the people
of the United States and endorse such
damnable legislation as that? Can you,
asa believer in republican form of gov,
ernmenr indorse the Legislation Of 1870
refnnding the bonds, TO be paid in the
standard coin of the country? The
standard coin OF the country ut that time
was 4l2.5 grains Of silver. and 25.S grains
of gold respectively in each dollar. Hay
ing left the bars down, making it pos
slble for the government to pay the re
funded bonds in silver or gold dollars.
