and DiTid Daria to carry Illinois ia
the ticket aaid to be the atioogeat yet
presented. Ja4ge Daria baa been
tloroaghly Democratic aa be nevtr
wa "Ridical" erer eince Hayea went
drifting to larboard with Chandler
Blaine and Garfield. Tilden atock haa
again Rone down and Bijard amonji
old-faehioned Andrew J.xkson honest
money Democrats supplants the cada-
verous master of Gramercj Prk. Til
den never loses a friend that tbe latter
doea not moye steadily towards Biy-
ard wbocoocura with Tilden in noth-
ing. Bayard wnuld maintain tbe absn
la e dominion of silver and gold while
Tilden would recognize nothing but
gold as a standard of value. Tilden is
a tar ff monger and bondholder and
a peculiar representative of Wall street
wbiie Biyard is an honett exponent of
the great mtsa of the intelligent and
honest people of tbe North and Bonth.
Myriads weald support Biyard diiler-
iog from him radically on this
leading question and simply be-
cause of Byard'a unsullied in-
t;rity of conduct and character.
Biyard waa born a gentleman and
couldn't help it or be too might have
fallen into Tilden'a practices in an age
as corrupt aa this and taken stock in
Credits M)biliers and in banks and
bonds. But his inborn instincts and
beriditary virtues restrained him and
in tbe midst of a vile generation he is
still stainless. Seeing how parties are
boplessly divided on the money ques
tion their leaders have sought to con
solidate them by reproducing propo-
sitions discussed in 1800-1 and in
1833 and the old war rages in Ohio.
But financial issues will hardly dis-
appear in the presence of an old polit-
ical theory and however strong Mr.
Bayard as a patriot and statesman ol
nneullicd personal fame his triumph
if be be nominated ould not be ab-
s tlutely assured. His personal worth
would give him great advantage but
there ia that infinite madness abont fiat
aad other paper money which j ersonal
purity and geniui for talks of
government cannot remedy. It
aim st forced Thnrman to stultify
himself. He concurred originally
with Biyard but when Pendleton's
Greenback theories were approved in
e Wtet and Hendricks too was
softened and Dan Vnorhees became
eloquent in laudation of money as
abundant as leaves of cottonwood on
a Mississippi river sand oar some
times called Valambrosa then Tbur-
man swooned and was softened and
bent reverently no more at the ancient
altar of tbe dollar oi the daddies. Tt was
sad and very wicked of a great thinker
aid statesman like Air. Tburman.
T te unbending Bayard when bis
whole party went whoring after the
new paper gods stood still. He turned
his face neither to the right nor left
and was fixed in the immutable faith
of his i lus'riom fathers. Independ
ent bnnettmen of all partita eveo
those differing from Bayard in refer-
ence to tbe greenback heresy will vote
fir him and simply because they
will not vote for a trading poli
tician. In fact confessedly houe. t
men are so rare that no good citizen
cnff rd to lose an opportunity to
support such a person when a candidate
fr any ffice and especially for this
highett; and when we r fleet that Bay-
ard 11 a representative American gen
tleman never befouled by the blood or
manners or morale of modern American
aristocracy decent people are com
pel! eel by a strong instinct of personal
sympathy to vote for him.
8bermanmeanwhlleha8been making
speeches for Sherman in Maine. He
will soon do tbe same thing in Ohio.
He declarea himself a candidate for
1 he presidency. He has ability and
learning and infinite capacity for la-
bor. He Is sober and discreet and
wben President would be conservative
as Hayes was two years ago. Sherman
is statesman enough for that; but see
how Bayard reckless of himself and
of his own honorable ambition de-
Totes himself tt the care of his sick
wife. While all these aspirants Til-
den Bherman Grant Tburman and
Hendricks are pipe-laying and while
Tilden Is conspiring with the rich
Fields brothers to buy the great glit-
tering bauble Mr. Bayard quietly takes
bis wife to Carlsruhe never knowing
or caring what the party-leaders may
d 1 when herded together for sale at
Cincinnati or St. Louis. One fact
ia certain that . the openly
scheming and trading of candi-
dal will become more and mon
disgusting and B.yard whatever the
trading politicians may think of it and
however the South differs from him lo

c mea rapidly omnipotent in these

The Waco Examiner justly and wise
ly declares that the Christian religion
loses v rtue and pwer simply for want
of opwsition. It enacts follies be-
cauae it encounters no resistance.
Many are led to esteem . the chnnh a
despotism and others the embodiment
of pbarisaism or of prurient puritanism.
Thoughtful and wise legislator dared
rot resist the suppose! demand of tbe

ber to organize local and other tocie-

made which would shock the sensibili

whole tendency of these meetings and
discussions haa been beneficent.
1 here are more uobelieveis than most
people imagine and this is the more
singular when none openly preach un
beliefs. Wben laws and sermons and
prayers are all in one d rection and vice
is still dominant it is 1 1 be hoped tba
this new movement of outright free-
thinkrs in morals and religious phi
losophy will result in such a thorough
discussion of the B.ble that none may
question in after years the simpl
faith of our fathers or the divinity of

KALLOCI IM P-USONAL
JO CRN aLISTI.
Ealloch is a huge red-bearded fel
low not wholly unlike the roaring
Kellogg who modestly assumes to rep-
resent Louisiana in the Federal Senate.
Kalloch is more than six feet high and
of leonine aspect and proportion" ani
in the vigor of his massive manhood
and intellect. He thinks ahead of
his associates in morals and polities
and it is a peculiarity of his devotion
to the Baptist church that somehow be
is always getting into "hot water."
Ealloch takes when he. is new. H-
does not wear well. Ha borrows
other people's money and never their
ideas and never pays. He is an incur
able spendthrift never knowing tbe
value of a dollar. He is .nevertheless
a vigorous thinker and great orator
and before the meb is without a rhe-;
torical peer in the West. If ha recovet
from his wounds inflicted by an as
sassin and it is stated that he will bis
election as a candidate for the chief
magistracy of San Francisco' is as-
sured and we ate much inclined to be-
lieve tbat he will occupy a seat
after March next in the Ben ate
f the United 8tates. It is not for
gittcn of this erratic genius that
some time ago be. starred his solemn
earnest and devout congregation in a
preliminary Sunday morning prayer by
thanking the Lord that "the Chioamau
must march." He is the htellectual
as Kearney is the physical and
oassionate leader of the mob of Sin
Francisco and t) him Kearney is in-
dett;d for sagest counsel and wisest
acts. When speaking not many days
aeo before a great multitude and Stn
Francisco's fate hung npon his words
he declared with a degree of earnest-
ness tbat left no doubt as to his sincer-
tv that it might be most foitunate fur
those most bitterly opposed to him and
nis party it tney were nnaiiy Debt-n
and the fortunes of San Francisco sub
jcted to his sway. He never forgets
of recent years that he is a Baptist
preacher and declarea that he will sur
render his political aspirations when
ever these interpose obstacles
to his church's prosperity. But the
facts involved in this contest in San
Francisco have even a broader eignifl
cance. They teach the impolicy of
personal vulgar journalism. They
show that however De Young's newspa
per prospered for a time tbe natural
end has come the natural and neces
sary end of such a career of violence
vituperation and personal defama
tion. The brilliant youthful journal
ist who made the Chronicle recently
tbe least esteemed . tbe most for
midable and powerful newspaper of
the West has met the fate of most of
those whose fortunes are based npon
the unstable foundation of popular
hates and passions. The ChronicU
becomes -odious and impotent. Tbe
wounding of Kalloch will even give
s-rength to Republicanism in tbe ap-
proaching State elections endangering
the success of the Democratic party.
Personal journalism begets most shock
ing outrages and two can play at It
and violence and outrage are its legiti
mate and highest achievement.

ceal the plain truth. It is told in pain-
ful facts. It U no more true North
hao South of tbe Yankee than of the
"Johnny Reb" tbat neither will toler-
ate African supremacy. Four years
agr tbe whits rsce had won mastery
everywhere and there was confessed
improvement m local governments and
popular burden except in Texas were
greatly lessened. It was thought that
peace and order would be permanent;
but the 'negroes deemed themselves
vict'miz?d by whites with whom they
live wben in point of fact burd'nsof
governments and indirect and intolera-
ble taxation impoverish the most indus-
trious laboring populations and have
filled a continent with tramps. Thene-g-o
race therefore organizes its strength
ti regain supremacy. D x 00 killed
ia Y-zoo only sought to take advan-
tage of this purpose of the blacks to
gain money whi'e Africa sought polit-
ic tl supremacy. The cot fl-ct is not lo-
cil and it is quite as irrepressible ss
tbat of which Seward dremd and
Brownlow expounded and Lincoln
wept over. The races as equals are
not and cannot be a homogeneous
mass. Here they vote solidly with the
few Greenbackers even wben a negro
has an inherent native aversion to pa-
per money and simply because they
will ever vote against tbe great body
of the white race. We do not feel the
evil where the negroes are In the mi-
oority bnt they complain amoBg them-
selves and resent in their hearts this
political domination of whites. Thus
ex-Governor Davis can vote them as be
pleases and thus Hon. Wash Jones
represents in Congress nobody but
Governor Davis. But when and how
can this evil be remedied ? 8arely
where there is no governing capacity
the power to govern should not reside
and it cannot. But wherever negro
majorities exist there are coming vio
lent conflicts. Dixon's death is a pre-
curser of great evils. The confl ct is
not of parties but of races and tbe
sooner the one is transferred to Kansas
or elsewhere colonizsd the bette r for
both and for the country's prosperity
and peace.

Justice Field of the 8upreme Court
BjDch is a brothir of Cyrus W. Field.
These two are worth fmr or five mil-
lions. Tilden's wealth is variously es-
timated from two to eight mi lions
I-. was agreed that these three with a
hird brother of Field worth $2000-
000 should pool their forces and buy ti e
Democratic party-leaders. If Tilden
c uld not wIp Judge Field should have
be piizs of the presidency and Cyrus
and the other brother were to be grand
almoners distributing tbe gifts incident
to the office of President. Cyrus bad
therefore taken Tilden's barre? into
the elevated street railway speculation
and then it was tbat Tilden while
Cyrus was in Europe made a dif
ferent combination with the Ohio
fallows and Field heard by ocean
cable how he had been cheated. There
fore we will find the potent Field
brothers the one owniog ocean cables
and preaching the gospel of world
wide international peace and the other
pronouncing able opinions on tbe Su
preme Court bench making war upon
the foxy Machiavelli of Gramercy Park
B it these are the leading facts which
Cyrus Field refuses to no fold and will
not until Tilden is again dragged before
the courts and forced to tell the con
sideration that moved Cyius W. Field
to transfer ti him at seventeen cents on
the dollar a million dollais of property
worth two millions. Then too Til
den will be forced to tell why he broke
faith with Field when he traded with
thoio who wanted something from the
bar'l to carry Ohio. It is choice litera
ture evolved from the knaveries of
these rich politicians who buy men
and votes and parties even aa they buy
stocks in Wall street.

The children begotten of whisky are
notoriously depraved in body and in'
tellect aad since the public oust main
tiin idiots and insane persons tbe pub
lic has tbe right to protect itseli
against such burdens and prevent the
production of such creatures. There-
fore it is proposed to have Congress
declare that whisky is not an article of
merchandise but a poison and not
merely malum prohibitum but malum
per se. Congress has seen fit to pro-
hibit the introduction of yeUow fever
and Congress if it choose may even
more wisely prohibit the introduction
of whisky. It regulates and restricts
to day the manufacture and selects it
agetti to control distilleries and by
tbe same right it may close these dis
tilleries. Successive generations; if
knaves of high and low degrteinstad

$1000 saying that was all thst could
bo raised iost then. It waa too lata 10

a private interview and the latter taid
tbat his father wanted that $1000 held
back; that a detective had informed
hia father tbat there was 4 'collusion
and fraud" between Casanave and the
New Orleans attorneys. Casanave was
informed of this and then the follow-
ing note was sent to Secretary Sher-
man: Washington Aug. 13 1879.
My Dear Secretary:
- Toe $500 you sent me I have sent to
Badger. I suit hold the $1000 sent me
by tbe President. He reports collu-
sion and fraud. What shall I do.
; 8aml Shellababger.
Inquiry showed that it waa ad nghtj
and toe President was not allowed to
retain his money it being sent to New
Orleans.
Are these facts! Does the President
confess by giving this $1000 to Casa-
nave that bis tenure of power was won
through Casanave's knaverj ? AU the
rest of tbe returning board were paid
in offices. C""v ee'a clean ca9h.
Mr. Sbermam tens u that if the
national banka be destroyed as pro-
posed by the Greenbackers tbe saving
would be $12800000 at 4 per cent.
But if tbe government instead ol
banks issue these notes the govern-
ment must keep on hand a fund to re-
deem the notes say 25 per cent of
their amount. The interest on this
fund would be $3000 000. Then tbe
banks pay $17000000 taxes annually
and thus the loss would be $20 000 000
and the people would lose $7000000
annually by losing the banks. But the
greatest evil incident to the destruc
tion of the banks would arise from the
vast centralizing power given direct lv
to the government. The power of the
Treasury would be measureless and its
corruptness magnified a hundred fold.
Can't the Greenbackers substitute
some other agency than the central
government for the banks? Tbe cen-
tral empire is s:rong and corrupt
enough even now and if clothed
with the prerogatives and influ
ence of 2000 banks it would
surely be omnipotent and its vices in-
calculably augmented. The banks are
bad enough and dangerous enough if
the Greenbackers are to be believed
and surely they wou'd not invest the
govercm -ot with their vie.
Ca'sanave a mulatto member of
the L Uisiana returning board tbat
made Hayes President at last demands
his reward. He is a modest clever

classes before he was drawn into poli

lost his good name and his money and
ia repudiated by those who promised
to protect and reward htm. He was
sued with his partners in crime and
he alone being solvent must pay the
lawyers' fees. The board employed
these lawyers and Sherman's and
Hayes's friends and supporters prom-
ised to pay tbe fees but when an ex-
ecution was levied on Cassanave'e
modest little livery stable neither o
hia coadju'ors of tbe returning board
could pay a dolUr and Cassanave's all
was levied upon. He appealed be
says to Sherman and others. They
gave him about $1700 of tbe $5000
wanted and Cassanave it seems is
ruined. It will be observed thtt Cas
sanave prefers no charges and tells no
tales out of school but tells all about
tbe school. He means to say that if
the stable be finally sold and those for
