Hand in hand with the South

were too cowardly and the men
who were too disloyal to do any

the Union soldier with equal
Jealousy and hate-jealousy Of
his courage and hate because he
has disappointed their hopes and
predictions. This class Of critics
is just now largely in evidence.
They claim to be unearthing
fraud when the are simply graft

deceive nobody. The people
understand them and despise
them. The popular heart is with
the men who fought for the life

are counting upon popular sym

contempt and detestation.

1t seems silly to talk .about the
competition OF labor, the over;rowd-
ing of this country and monopoly Of
the land causing poverty in this
part of the universe. Texas is the
size of France. The latter country
supported a population of 38,O0O,00O
or more than half the inhabitants
of all our States and Territories.
When we consider the fact if this
country had 3OO,OOO,OOO people it

tee to report bill repeating the
purchasing clause of the Sherman

age Of both gold and silver without
discriminating against either metal
and for making the dollar unit Of

trinsic or exchangeable value also,
that under proper guard and re-
striction so as TO secure the unifor-
nifty OF the power of chartering and
establishing, banks of issue may be
safely and wisely restored to the

the capacity of the states for self
government; also that said commit
tee be instructed to report bill re-
pealing the prohi5itory 10 per cent
tax on state bank issues.
Senator Voorhees, introduced his
bill authorizing the issue of national

people of this country, and Of this

entitled to the nomination for Gov

that he will receive it, He is man

One of the curious features of the
panic" is that while certain East
ern papers are denouncing the
fraudulent" silver dollar, a premi-
UNI is actually being paid in New
York for these very coins. Another
funny thing is that while, few
weeks ago, we were told that silver
was driving cut gold, we now behold
gold returning in large quantities tc

a matter that Will not wait for con-

on behalf of American shippers,
were taking s1,210,OOO from the

landed or afoat between $4,000
600 and 100000 in gold coins
and bars. Spanish gold from Ha>
vana is also hurrying into this GEN.
ire of low pressure in gold matters.
While this vigorous increase of the
currency is going ON in one direc-
ton, the paper money machinery in
Washington is working at an extra
rate making cash of another sort,
and the orders have been pouring
into the treasury department for
bank circulation at the rate of
about 100000 per day. Bonds of
the United States will be put on de-
posts to secure this outflow of paper
money, and already since the strln-
gency became embarrassing about
Sic, 100000 has been bespoken.
This means total of about $40, 000,-
600 Of new money injected into the
volume of circulation, and it will tax
the money of hoarders to get this
sum sailed away. In fact, the back
bone of the boarding craze has been
already broken. The offers of a
premium is bringing the currency
out in an enlarging volume, AND
soon the freedom of payments and
the cessation of the premium will
convince the most avaricious hoard
er that he has held on too long anC
that he may as well put his money
back in the banks, let it draw inter

THE Atlanta Constitution asked
Trox Bankston of the Ringgold New
South, as it did other Georgia edi,
tors, for $50 words as to what Con-
gress should do. Editor Bankston
wrote $50 words, 200 words more
than the Constitution had space
for, and because the Constitution
cut the article down to the required
limit, Bankston is greatly outraged
and goes for the Constitution in two
columns ofspace. Bankston wanted
to soar, and the Constitution clipped
his wings and kept him out of the
clouds. Bankston spread himseli
out ''from Florida to Maine and
from California to New York, D
''from ocean to ocean and from the
gulf to the lakes" and ''plAced the
flag on the political pinacle." What
the Constitution really wanted was
his opinion as to what Congress
should do. The Constitution can
not confne Bankston to $50 words
or to Catoosa county either. "Nt
pent up Utica can contract his pow
ers; the whole boundless univers'
is his"
