The Capital in commenting upon
Senator PlumBs recommendation TO
put into circulation among the peo-
pie the millions now idle in the
United States treasury, has this to
cay:
There Is still another hundred million dollars
In the treasury which serves no useful purpose
the gold reserve provided for by the resump-
ton act Of 1875 As public opinion was at that
time, reserve fund appeared 10 be necessary.
There could not be q resumption Of specie pay
ment without specie, though one hundred mil
Hons Of gold Is not enough 10 pay on three hun
dred and hfty million dollars Ofpaper money; but
that was the theOy-that One-thlrd In specie Is
good as q reserve for three.thIrds ailOat, and the
theory had IN be respected. Afterwards, how
ever, In 1878, a. Otir memory has u, an act was
passed prohibiting the paying Of United States
notes, the very notes for which this reserve fund
WIS provided and Is kept. Why not release that
fund and let the people have the use OF II? The
demand for that viii quickly follow the release
OF the other money as provided In the Plumb
bill. The demand for more currency will not
cease until the people are supplied.
The italics in the above quotation
from the Capital are ours and we
use th0m to call attention TO the
meager and insufficient references
which the editor Of that paper is de-
pendent upon. II the Capital had
been reading alliance papers for the
last year instead of relying upon his
memory" he might have given his
readers the information contained in
the above editorial just twelve months
earlier. Why all this golden silence
on the part Of the Capital concern
ing matters Of such vital Importance
to the people. Why wait until such
items are old news to every alliance
man in the state who takes his own
papers instead of the discreetly silent
partisan papers which forget to re-
member valuable matters until "mem-

THE boldest piece Of literary piracy
we have seen for some time we find in
the columns Of the Unit of the 18th
inst. An article from the pen Of w.
S. Morgan, and another from our
state president, B. H. Clover both
published in The ADVOCATE of Janua-
ry 80, are blended together in bung-
ling manner and published as an
original contribution over the sigma
ture Of Henry Fox. Other papers
have frequently stolen articles from
our columns without credit, but this is
the first instance we have seen of at

PREsToN b. PLUMB may not be an
expert in tanning the hides Of dem
ocrats," but no man in the nation
can deal sturdier blows TO the iniqui-
tous financial system which is bank
rupting Che industries Of our county,
Senator Plumb does not pose and
crate for merely selfish and sensa-
tlOnal purposes. When he speaks
he says something Of importance to
the country. He does not say cutting
things for the mere purpose Of get
ting notOriety.
