The present week has been the most
successful one in the history
of the CHRONICLE, inasmuch as during nc
six days since it has been in existence
has it received so many subscribers ol
new advertisements or turned out sc
large an amount of job work. In
fact its presses have had to run fal
into the night to fill its orders. The
course the CHRONICLE has taken has in
spired confidence and it is receiving the
hearty support of the public.
The Oregon farmers alliance propose.
that the government shall issue ful
legal tender notes in amount sufficient
to make up to the Union soldiers wha
they lost by depreciation of the green
backs in time of the war. We very
much mistake the temper of the Unior
soldiers if they will, in any great mum
bers, thank the Alliance for this proposal
The money paid them was the same
money paid to everybody else. They
knew what they we're getting and were
Satisfied at the time. The farmer anc
contractor who furnished the army wifi
supplies has the same right TO compen
sation as the soldier, but then, on the
other hand, if the government is goins
into the business of manufacturins
money onA printing press, it can afford
to be liberal.
