have been condemnation all along the Re-
publican ranks.
THE Implication startled me that there
are in a prosperous state like Ohio Re
publican voters who wish to degrade our
dollar standard, repudate one-haif our
public debt. and pay their debts in cheap
or money than they promised 20 pay.
81 have not met such voters in New
York. II is difficult for me to believe
that a majority in any American State
or in any American Congress will vote
10 create a new dollar. merely In or
ded that thereby debtors may eyade the
payment Of One-half. or one-quarter or
any percentage Of what they owe and
have promised. That would be worse and
more indefensible than the creation IN
1862 by Senator Sherman's party Of the
full legal tender greenback dollar Then
the country was In the agony Of civil
war. but now there Is profound peace.
Until | read the latest legal tender de-
cision, I'm 1883, by a Republican Supreme
Court I'm Juillard's case. I did not think
that our highest judicial tribunal could
tolerate such Reputation or private con-
tracts by a degradation OF our legal ten

our history til 1862. Whether our stand

both. 1t was, from 1872 TO lS62 an honest

begin 20 force the circulation Of dcgrad-

zone OF my objections to our present
government taking full legal silver and
grccnhack dollars Is that they are not *
portable.
Il would cxterminate forever the green

the main walk, and contains thirty graves
side by side.
The monument has been erected by the
girls Of the mission. The idea was sug-
gested by Mrs. Isabel Doyle, who was
redeemed there. and afterward became a
missionary. While attending a funeral one
day she thought how terrible II was
20 be laid In a nameless grave. Then the
idea suggested itself 10 have a monument

the women az the mission, and mis-

Mrs. Doyle was placed in the plot just
