 the world.

 It is the imperative duty of the government to furnish the best currency it can and as the specie in all in the hands of wealthy speculators, the next best it can do is to furnish green backs which it some respects arc better than gold, being more convenient. As to imitation, contraction and specie payments, it is all gammon. No body looks for return to specie payment in the next ten years, but if the bank-gentry can gull the nation by talk of harmony and raising a dust about "infation" then induce Congress to withdraw all the green back circulation, THEIR bills will have double pur- chasing power, and they will have accomplished what they so much desire.

 The N. Y. Word and few other tools and hired agents of the bond holders have their slate made up of their friends with Tilden at the head and they don't care a cent whether he is elected or not if he can only defeat . good democrat and re-elcct Grant. The N. Y. World is not a democratic paper, it is simply the mouth piece of the Rothchilds and the money lenders, the editors are not even naturalized citizens.

 The people of the South and West want a true honest capable statesman, real patriotic one who loves his fellow citizens bet ter than bonds or bullion.

 The Ohio and Missouri dem- ocracy are right; they represent the people, not that class of men whom the Savior drove out of the Temple. The people desire uniform currency and if paper money or backs are good enough for the merchant anG working man they should be good enough for the bond holder and good at the custom house. The government should not repudiate its own issue by refusing it for duties on imports.

 Banking ought to be free for all who have enough capital and bankers should be compelled to make depositors perfectly secure. But government should never furnish the capital as it is doing now. As it stands now the capit- alist draws interest in gold on bonds which cost him forty or fifty cents on the dollar and then the government gives him ninety per cent. of hls bonds to bank on. I say "givc" for it is an actual gift for the time his bank exists. Still he is not satisfied, he wants no competition Tn the money making business. government must withdraw her circulation then he can refund" "infate" or contract" as may suit his in terests.

 It is to be desired that this whole subject shall be well under stood by the business and pro- ducing classes everywhere.

 Beware of the schemes of great rings! |

 They are the bond holders and bankers rings.

 The whiskey distillers rings.

 They own all such papers as the N. Y. Herald and N. Y. World and will influence every purchasable politician and paper in the U. s.

 The democratic party has been beaten often enough by these money leeches.

 Let us have Q candidate for president in 1876 whose sympa- thies arc with the people who cares as much for the inhabitants of the great West as for the mon- ey lenders of the East. Hen dricks will do. I am perhaps spinning this out too long, but hope this may induce some one who is competent, to thoroughly ventilate the whole subject. I repeat that it is not imitation against contraction, but green backs or the peoples money against the expensive national bank bills. C. k. T,
