preston comes, labor declines, and the
wolf approaches many door. Without
confidence there can be no credit, no
enterprise. Capital is boarded, sent
abroad or lies idle, and all industries
diminish or cease, and the surest way
the world has ever seen to destroy con-
fidence is to debase the currency and to
make it uncertain from day to day how
much a dollar is worth and how much
il is going to count for IN the near flu
ture-to take away, as is now proposed,
one-half its value to begin with and to
set the other half to fuctuating to an
Indefinite extent, with the rising and
the setting of the sun and the approach
of every storm.
There is, therefore, in my judgment,
10 man more criminal or who is a worse
public enemy than he who engages in
or countenances that infamous and de-
structive attempt because the less a
man has, or the less he earns, the more
necessary II is to him that the value of
that little should be maintained and
made sure, and that the few dollars in
his pocket should be as good dollars as
there are. AS we'll might the steerage
passengers in vessel in midocean,
weary of their privations, be melted by
some mischief maker to scuttle the ship
in order to drown the inmates of the
more luxurious cabins, unconscious that
they themselves must be equally the vic
Tins of the common calamity.
The party is already hopelessly dis
1upted on the issue presented. We can
not follow both its divisions at the same
time, however desirable it might be,
since they are moving in opposite direc-
TONS On tine one side are the oldtime
honored principles of the party, under
which all its great traditions have been
generated, and which all its illustrious
keaders have advocated. Chief and fore
most among these principles always in
times past has been the maintenance of
sound and honest money. of dollars that
are dollars, of national stamp upon
them that does not lie.
On the same side are its most trusted
present statesmen and leaders, and a
very large proportion at the last of its
better and most instructed element.
Which way shall we go. then, since we
cannot go both ways? With its states
men or with its camp followers? With
its principles or with its organization
stampeded and graded by it's enemies?
In which direction lies the future of the
party il ii is to have any future? And
who are they who will control it here
after. "when this tyranny shall be over
past?" Let no man be afraid to be right
en- this question, for it is the right that

forms the party or destroys IT.

The most stubborn fight of the day then

Capture of Dciaulter Green.

Through the efforts Of the Fidelity
and Deposit Company Of Maryland
Richard H. Green, .Jr., the detaulling
book keeper OF the Farmers National
Bank Of Annapolis was captured by
the Company's detectives Smith, West
Il Lyons, last week. Green lett
Annapolis, September 18th when he
discovered that he was suspected OF
being short in his accounts. The
Fidelity aud Deposit Company Of
Maryland was surety on his bond TO
the extent OF $4,000. An exami.
nation of his books revealed the fact
that he had stolen in the neighborhood
OF $4,000. As soon n the eX-
animation was iinishen and the Fidel-
ity and Deposit Company was formally
notified Of the shortage, il sent its
check Tor $4,000, the iull amount of
its bond, to Mr.. J. Writ Randall, the
President Of the bank. Immediately
upon the Fidelity and Deposit Com
pany being convinced that there was
deialcation, il put its detectives to
work and Green was traced from point
to point in various parts of the coun-
try until he was located at Grafton,
Pa, arrested aud taken to Baltimore.
The promptness OF the Fidelity and
Deposit Company OF Maryland in
paying the amount Of its bond aud
tracing Green to his hiding place.
demonstrates the advantage of corpor-
ate surety, in that il shows that when
a corporation qualities on bond, it
meets its liability promptly aud at the
same time does not allow the deiaulier
to escape.
