CASEY,S WITHDRAWAL.

AS predicted, Senator Casey has
withdrawn. He did so gracefully, but
there was tone of bitterness in what
he said concerning his candidacy that
was noticeable. Immediately after the
announcement the republicans pro-
ceeded to caucus, and the manner in
which the dry bones about the capital
were stirred up indicates that the solu-
tion Of the problem from republican
standpoint is as far off as ever.
To an observer of events, the demor-
allied condition of the republicans at
Bismarck means democratic victory.
Yesterdays ballot indicated that Mr..
Roach could command the full populist
strength; it showed that Roach had by
no means been abandoned, nor would
he be. He is the most available can

than in any previous year. The

Engle, Colonel Bidlake, Senator Kin
ter and other prominent democrats
are behind it. The suggestion came
from the fact that Governor Boies, of
Iowa, had declined on the ground that
he would be a candidate for the senate
next year.
The claim for Roach's hackers is
that he has been twice a candidate for
governor; that he is the choice Of the
democrats for United States senator:
that he is a practical farmer, living
on farm: that he is man of affairs
evinced by the fact that lie is chairman
OF the regents Of the state university,
and further that North Dakota is de-
serving of recognition at Cleveland S
hands.
Ten days after the snap convention
OF February 22nd in Syracuse. when
New York instructed of Hill, North
Dakota held a convention and instruct
Ell for Cleveland and Il western man.
w. n. Roach headed the delegation Of
six which voted first and always for
Cleveland. North Dakota by fusion
robbed Harrison Of two of the three
electoral votes which might have been
very important. These claims are put
forward, and, as Roach is very popular
1T is believed every democrat in the

cratic standpoint Cleveland could do

Our Bismarck Letter,

Bismarck cold and stormy makes
the members of the 3rd Legislative
assembly stop and consider whether
the money and time spent in tic
late campaign was worth the candle.
Several of the members are sick in
bed from bad colds which in some
cases has developed into pneumonia
and fever.
The senatorial fight is still on al
thought Casey has withdrawn from
the roll. The Republicans are un,
able to agree upon any other candi-
date and the democrats are fepIju~
jubilent thereat as it enhances their
chances Of electing democrat to
the u S. senate.
If a democrat is elected it will be
either Hon. W. Il. Roach, or Col.
John y. Benton No other candi-
dates Oh the democratic side of the
fence Will be- considered.
Interesting developments are cx-
pected this week. There is some
dissension in their ranks now owing
to republican influences. 1t is an
accepted fact that Hagen (Ind) had
received previous instructions how
to act when his vote would have
made Col. Benton U. S. senator.
There has been but one bill pass
ed in the House yet and there is a
bill introduced now repeating the
one that has passed. The republi
can members are unwilling to get
down to work until the senator is
elected.
tits my opinion that if the assem-
bly, would pass the necessary appro-
priation bills and the warehouse
and then adjourn 1t would prove
blessing to the state and receive the
commendation of the people.

duce't bill cutting of county treas

There Isl loud call from various
quarters fur Il change in the system of
elec;ing United States senator's. The
prolonged contests in various legisla-
lures, the charges and suspicion of
bribery. the Introduction Of personal
spiteS and interests into the sentoriul
fights. has diSgusteu the people. and
they are demanding that the election
Shall be by popular vote, instead of by
the legislatures. An amendment to
the fetral constitution would be neces-
say, but it is believed that this can be
obtained. 1t is perhaps too late to be-
gin the movement in the present con-
grcSs. but no time Shoull be lost in
introducing the necessary legislation
in the next congress. If there is an
extra session Il bill might be passed
III time to permit states which hold
elections next fall to vote on it and
"'rct legislatures favorable to sucli
amendment. The ma Aioritv of the
states. however, could rot vote on it
until 1894, without special elections
and extra sessions Of their legislatures
and the amendment at the briefest
could not probably go into operation
before 1898. But the sooner the reform
il started the better.

,el those who do not want it to take

When u country is in the midst
of a doubtful war, on the result of
which will depend its ability to
keep its paper currency in use, the
employment or the threat Of force
to give circulation to it's notes may
be excusable, but in time ofpeace
the freedom Of bargain, which is a
natural right, should not be inter
fered with.
This does not mean that The
Republic hes any objections to Of
fer to the circulation of the
present greenbucks. On the con-
trary, It would resist any attempt
to withdraw them from circulation.
AS long as they remain at par, the
fact that they are Il lcTa! tender
makes no difference whatever. We
believe, moreover, that the paper
money of the future is either Il
State bank note or a National bank
note, but a treasury note rcdccmablc
on demand and receivable for all
Government dues Of every KIND.
1t IS more important that the note
of tn: Treasury should be received
for all dues to the Treasury than
that it should be u legal ten ,:r.
the fact that it is a legal tender
can never have much if anything to
do with keeping it at par, but if it
is honest money, and not swindling
paper, it will be received every
whore at par as long as the Govern
mcnt itself gives it full credit by
taking it for all dues. The private
individual who would issue his note
payable on demand and then refuse
to honor 1t when offered in pay
mcnt Of certain Of his debts would
be wrightly considered a swindler,
and the same thing is not the less
fraudulent when the fraud is perpe-
tratcd by the government. But as
long as any paper, public or private
is exchanged at par or is taken in
payment of debts due the party is
suing it, such notes will need no
legal tender quality to make them
worth their face.
The Government collects over
00,OOO,0OO annually from the peo-
pie. This is about third Of the
total circulation Of money Of all
kinds. Since Harrison has been in
office his administration has taken
from the people and spent in var
ions ways more money than there is
now in the whole country or than
there has ever been in it at any one
time. The Government is thus by
far the largest handler Of money.
Abont once in every three years it
collects from the people all the
money there is in the country, at
any one time during the period of
collection. The fact that the Gov
ernment Will receive a particular
kind of note in payment of any and
every part of the immense annual
Indebtedness of the people to the
Treasury is enough to fix the stand
ing of the note and to make it Sc
cure SO long as such notes are not
issued with the fraudulent purpose Of
finding new way to pay old debts.
When that is done-when it is at
tempted to create value out of
nothing, then the legal tender quail
ity is needed. But it never is nee
essary and it never will be necess-
ary to use or threaten force to give
circulation to a sound currency of
geld and silver coin and Of treasury
notes exchangeable on demand for
coin.
