on delivery. The armies of laborers
received their wages either every
Saturday night or fortnightly. Ev-
erything in these great enterprises
was conducted on ready money
basis. Here was the first call for
more ready money. The democratic
party was the first of the two nigh
ty political organizations to see the
wisdom of endeavoring to meet this
call in a practical, sensible way, by
supplying the demand for more
money, The first movement in
this direction was made by Gov.
Seymour, of New York. He made a
speech as early as 1868, in which he
expressed himself as in favor paying
the interest on the United States
bonded debt and the principal, too,
in greenbacks, the same money that
had been current all through the
war then so lately ended. The idea
at once became popular. The re
publican party tried to steal it, but
it was so clearly a democratic
measure that on it Seymour carried
the state of New York by Il hand
some democratic .1fa1ority.
The real and original purpose OF
the shrewder democrats was served.
They had raised an issue, wholly
unconnected either with ante-bellum
politics or the war, that did split up
the republicans to very great ex,
tent. The ''greenback" idea-what
ever we may think of it now-serv
ed its purpose, excellently we'll. i
raised question in which the wa
, did not figure. The demand fo'
3 more money became general. 1t wa:
held to be democratic issue, All,
? that party made its first gains in tn
f east mainly on this issue. For tn
q first time in years, the Legislature o
