TagEarfs Candidacy Only n Blind to
Nominate EudOrus VI. Johnson.

Nominate Eudorus VI. johnson.
II the reports that are being circulated
on the streets are true and there seems
10 he little reason to doubt them. the
Democratic party in this city is going to
have merry war on its hands immei' ate
ly after the city convention 1t Is charged
that the declaration by Thomas Taggart
that he would accept the nomination for
Mayor is simply in the interest of an
other candidate, whom he wants to see
continue TO draw his living from the public
treasury. Ii is said that Taggart had no
idea of accepting the nomination on ac-
count OF his many interests In business
matters and also because he is looking for
ward TO something with more honor and
glory next year and does not want to take
the chances of being elected Mayor and
having to disappoint many of his friends
who want Office just at the time when he
would want them to support him for
higher office. At the same time he wants
to defeat 81. George Rogers for the nom-
nation BY coming ont at the present time
ne knew he would almost paralyze the
EFFORTS or the friends of Rogers 50 that
when the time came for i..e convention
they would have no organization. 1t woJl
then be an easy matter to pass the word
minute that he would not be a candidate
the machine should go as a single man TO
the support of the one named by Tageart.
This one is TO be Eudorus NJ. Johnson the
present chief deputy under Auditor Tag
gart,. and a man who, by his faithfulness
TO Taggart's interests. has placed Tag
gait under many obligations to him. This
plan, ii is thought, would succeed in plac-
ing Johnson at the head OF the ticket. 1t
would be easy to get Taggarts support
ers TO cast tn sir Influence and work for him
because II would go without saying that
Taggart would still be the Mayor in fact,
if such a thing as Democratic success
should be one of the miracles OF the year.
which is not likely. The Rogers men are
aware of this plan and are putting forth
every effort TO defeat II. They argue tnat
the party does no. want TO put up man
who would be only the nominal head of the
administration, but want man who woulf
take the Office without having power
behind hlm to dictate his policy. 1ney also
argue that Johnson showed too much weak
lie able to hold the votes of the Democracy.

When the last congress adjourned there
was not one Virginia Democrat out ola hun
dred-you might say a thousand-who had
the slightest hope of e%Iecting a Democratic
President in 1896. Now there's not one
out Of a hundred who doesn't hope to elect
him The times have improved, the tariff
is working well, the President has kept the
ship steady aud gotten more ballast in the
Treasury, there Is more skilled employment
all over the country, wages that shrunk so
in the hard times are being raised every.
where, common labor is finding work, wool
under the new tariff has about doubled its
price, wheat is twenty cents better than it
was this time last year, beef holds its price
well-aA things are better. All this COM
pared with last year. Compare next year
with this, next July, and the change will
be still more marked-there won't be a peg

race. It has been a great change !-Naum-

Justice to cleveland.

Every unprejudiced person must ac'
knowledge that Mr.. Cleveland has been IN
fairly treated BY a portion ofhis own party.
When he entered on his second term ofot1ce
all of the law-making powers OF the govern
ment were in Democratic hands, and he
had reason to expect that he would be sup
ported IN Democratic measures by all who
had been elected on the same platform as
himself. When he found that the treasury
was being depleted Of its gold and that even
bankruptcy was imminent, from causes over
which be had no control and for which he
was no way responsible, he appealed for aid,
but that august body refused this aid IN the
counlry's greatest emergency. But here
President Cleveland showed his self-relianee
and frmness, as General Jackson was wont
to do. by taking the matter into his own
hands and saving the honor and credit OF
the country by his own actions. By a judi
eious financial arrangement he checked the
depletion Of the gold in the treasury to its
last dollar, and so adjusted the matter that
the gold balance has risen abO7e the amount
required by law.
LET US then in our day do this man sim
pie Justice, for the time will come, after the
rancor of politics has subsidized and after Mr..
Cleveland shall have become unavailable for
further political honors, that he will belook-
ed back upon as the safe, honest President,
who would not be induced By the promise OF
temporary support to act contrary to what
his conscience aud good sense told him was
right. "-Hartord Dispatch.

Eoucott Of Bank Notes.

WASHINGTON, July 19AAt the Treasury
Department it was said that the plan Mr..
Sovereign, Of the Knights of Labor, Of boy
cotting national bank notes, if carried out,
would prove more harmful than beneficial
to the labor interests of the country, as it
would contract the currency to the extent
Of S2l1, goo, 900 without injuring the national
banks.
1T would not hurt the national banks at
all, said Mr.. O. P. Tucker, deputy control
Ter Of the currency.
IF people should refuse to receive their
notes, the banks would simply present them.
to the United States Treasury for redemp-
ton aud receive legal-tender notes, which
they would continue to use in their business.
The only effect would be to withdraw that
much money from circulation, as represent
ed by the amount of notes redeemed. 1t Is
true that under the law the acceptance of
national bank notes cannot be enforced and
no man can be compelled 10 take them as
legal tender. The fact that they are accept
ed ia everyday transactions is because the
government is behind them and stands ready
at any moment TO redeem them with legal
tender. An effort to discredit national bank
notes would, therefore, be an attempt to de-
preciate the governments currency. There
are only S211 ,OOO, 900 of national bank notes
in circulation, while there are $3.50, 900, 900
of other kinds of money outstanding"
