A number of papers are publishing
war stories and pictures of battles of
the Revolution In the II. Y. Sunday
Journal the spirit of '76 was portrayed
as showing how that spirit again nov
eyed over the country. a perusal of
much of this gives thoge of us who
studied history some 80 years ago. a
peculiar feeling of goneness. We find
now that all the great battles of the
Revolution were fought north Of Ma
son and Dixon's line, or if any one
took place south of that, it was some
insignificant skirmish. There was
Bunker Hill and Trenton. and in all
that is told of them the name of o GER
tain G. Washington whom we years
ago learned had something to do with
GbG Revolution, was not mentioned.
But Warren, Nathan Hale, and Paul
Revere, were the men who won the
splendid victories or inspired the PEG
pie OF thnBe times with the great spirit
which carried them 10 freedom. In
short time il The name of G Washing
ton does not disappear from history
his real birth place will become known,
and it will be found to have been in
or near Boston.

A Bond Issue.

AS q means Of carrying on the pres
ent war the Republicans in Congress
have determined to issue $500, 00O.00
in bonds. There could be no greater
outrage on a country. This will cause
an annual interest of $15,000,000, not
one cent of which should ever be paid.
A bond is simply a promise to pay at
some future day sum of money, with
or without interest as the case may be.
In this case it will be promise to pay
thirty or fifty years after date Ger
tain sum Of money with 3 per cent
interest. Had the Republicans done
what ought to have been done they
would have issued promises in the
shape OF one. two, five, ten, twenty,
fifty and one hundred dollar bills, and
they would have been taken as fast as
they could have been issued, and no
man in the United States but would
have sold the government everything
in his line necessary to carry Oh the
war and accepted them in payment
therefor. On these not one cents
worth of interest woull have been
paid, and they would have bought
just as much as any paper obligation
ever issued by the government. But
mo. This war was caused in order that
certain people might fatten and they
are going to fatten, and here is the
first place they have gotten their good
work in. If the government had been
in dire need Of money these bonds
would have been inevitable, but the
government can get all the money it
wants, or it can issue notes with
legel tender clause and get all the sup
plies it wants. This, however, does
not suit Wall street or your Uncle
Hanna, SO a bond issue was forced
over Democratic protest without de-
mand save by the money power, for no
reason other than that its strong boxes
may be filed with bonds and the peo-
pie be further enslaved by making the
hard earnings of the poor contribute
to the support of the rich. All knew
that when Cleveland made that I'M
holy issue Of bonds, the price paid was
about $106, but in ten days after the
bonds landed safely in the pockets Of
Drexel, Morgan s. Co. and in Cleve-
lands own pocket, they could not be
bought for SLY. Barring the Cleve
land bond Issue. there never has bsen
greater crime than the present bill
authorizing the issue of five hundred
millions in bonds. It is an indefensi-
bic outrage, and no condemnation is
too great foriit Il is to be hoped the
Senate will defeat it.
