One of General Grants greatest vic
tories was not won in war, but in times
Of profound peace. On April 2S, 1874,
he vetoed an imitation bill which had
passed both houses Of congress, by de-
cided ms jorities, and back Of which
were many eminent Republican poll
ticians who imagined that they saw
sure defeat ahead for their party unless
they made concessions to those clamor-
ing for more money. The pressure
for the bin was not all political Many
timid business men urged the president
to sign the bill IN order to stop agita-
ton. In this trying situation President
Grant showed patriotism wholly above
par tisanship and d clear conception Of
sound financial principles, unobscurcG
by shortsighted notions Of immediate
business expediency.
He vetoed the bill because in theory
it would produce imitation THE theo-
nv. " he declared, "in my belief is de-
parture from the true principles Of
finance, national interest, national obli-
cations to creditors. congressional prora
Use, party pledges on the part Of both
political parties and Of personal views
and promises made BY me in every an
nual message sent 70 congress and ia
each inaugural address.
So far from being a settlement"
the bill invited agitation. Should
it fail to create the abundance Of
circulation expected Of it, the friends
of the measure, particularly those out
Of congress, would clamor for such
imitation as would give tho expect
ed relief. And he defined his general
principle III these pregnant words, /
am not believer in any artificial meth
cd of making paper money equal to
coin when the coin is not owned or
held ready to redeem the promises to
pay, for paper money is nothing more
than promise TO pay and is valuable ex-
actly in proportion to the amount OF
coin that it can be converted into.

MUNYON OFF FOR EUROPE
Propos Is to Establish Medical installations
in London, Paris and
Berlin.

The steamer New York, OF the Aneri-
can Line. Wednesday carried among Its
passengers Professor j. NJ. Munyon ana
staff of his physicians. When ques-
toned as to his intentions Professor
Munyon said: Eyes. it is true 1 have
determined TO Introduce my remedies
into all foreign countries. The fact is
have had so many orders for my cures
from abroad. not only from tourists. but
from people who have heard Of these
remedies through their friends on this
side OF the water, that / am He'd 10 be-
lieve that I will meet the same generous
patronage there for my cures that has
been experienced here. Human nature
is about the same the world over. When
a person is sick he wants TO get well in
the quickest ard most economical way.
This IS the age OF progress. The old
style doctoring is being abandoned.
People have discovered that they don't
require big doses Of calomel and other
dangerous drugs TO effect a cure.
II am glad 10 see said Professor
Munyon. "tha. physicians Of different
schools are be- oming more liberal and
less bigoted IN their ideas, and believe
that in a few years my system Of doc
toring will be generally adopted by all
schools Of medicine. The enormous sales
OF my remedies last year. amounting 10
nearly ten million walls, show their
popularity and curative qualities. The
system OF preparing a separate cure for
each disease appeals TO the common
sense OF all intelligent communities, and
enables people TO doctor themselves sue
cessfuliy and cure themselves at the
less: possible expense.
IT shall give London the largest and
best-equippe1 medical institution n the
world. 1 shall take there a duplicate Of
all my improved medical appliances a.
we'll as a complete stock OF my remedies,
and shall offer them 20 the public on the
same generous terms that are offered
our people at home.
1T Is my intention 10 make the estab-
Hshment n London resting place for
ali American tourists. where newspapers

a full line OF American publications can
always be found. / also intend to have
