_SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 1888.
When the new pension office clerks
received Slv Dear Hubbell’s little circu
lar they began to feel solid.
If any proof were needed of the gene -
ral “cuesedness” of Radicalism its sup
port of Chalmers would furnish it.
The Boston Journal prays with fer
vency that Robeson may be beaten. Is
the pander worse than his followers?
It would be interesting to know
whether Hubbell has called on the star
routers’ counsel. They are in the service
of the ‘‘grand old party.”
Editor Reid thinks it horrible that
Dorsey should have attempted to bull
doze Garfield. Editor Reid tried to do
the same thing—and at midnight, at
that.
Protectionists seem to be about the
same everywhere. In Russia as in
America, they have assumed the role of
Oliver Twist, and are clamoring for
“more.”
If Hubbell sends ten thousand dollars
to every blatant disorganizer in the
South—as he is alleged to have done with
Chaimers—large as his corruption fund
may be, he won’t have enough to go
around.
The maddest patriot in Washington is
said to lie an official who was decapitated
just after he had settled with “My Dear
Hubbell.” Punctuality has its virtues,
but in this instance it was decidedly pre
mature.
A statement is being published that
Mr. Arthur sat by Dorsey and assisted
him in the composition of his now
celebrated Garfield letter. If this be
true, no wonder that letter advised the
President to stick by Conkling and Ar
thur.
Among the lead producing countries of
the world Spain ranks first, with last
year an output of 120,000 metric tons;
the United States second, with 110.000
tons; Germany third, with 90,000 tons,
and England fourth, with 67,000 tons.
The total output was 436,500 metric tons.
Republican tribute payers to Hubbgll’s
corruption fund are getting uneasy, and
are making inquiries as to what the great
assessor does with their money. They
evidently are beginning to think that Jay
H. should be required to give bond and
security before he is entrusted with any
more funds.
In Mr. Charles T. O'Ferrall, Mr, John
Paul’s opponent in the Seventh Virginia
Congressional district, the latter, it is
said, will find a foeman worthy of his
prowess. Mr. Paul has served his boss
faithfully, and it now becomes the latter
to reciprocate by coming to Paul’s rescue
as far as he can.
It staggers the New Eagland organs,
who are “sot” in the belief that nothing
good can come out of any region but
PuritandnriF, that over four hundred
towns in Kentucky have adopted local
option. Considering the relative seduc
tiveness of Bourbon and New England
rum, honors are not only easy, but the
blue grass section has the odd trick.
The report that some mythical promi
nent Southerner was trying to get up a
cavalry expedition to assist Arabi Bey is
doubtless simply a silly canard. At any
rate it will fail. Southern people are
pretty well convinced by this time that
staying at home and making meat and
bread is a far more profitable employ
ment than running into visionary ad
ventures.
Hon. A. H. Stephens left Augusta for
his home last Thursday night in a special
car. We learn from the Chronicle and
Constitutionalist that he will make no
regular canvass of the State, as it would
be a very wearisome undertaking, and
he thinks would be productive of no
real good. He may respond to special
invitations to address public assemblages,
however.
The British public can spend its leis
ure hours to some profit wrestling with
the following problem, propounded by
the London Standard: “If 700 men, fir
ing a deliberate volley at a
regiment of cavalry five hundred
yards distant, wound one horse, how
many men and how many tons of lead
will be required to kill Arabi Pasha
and 1,000 of his soldiers?”
The main problem in Egypt will be its
status after Arabi is overthrown. Some
English writers incline to the belief that
the attempt to rule the country through
the bondholders will not be renewed, but
that a stable native government will be
allowed to control affairs. Paradoxical
as it may appear for the defeated to win
independence, this may possibly be the
outcome of the present troubles.
Mahonc yelps often and shrilly for a
“free ballot and a fair count” at elec
tions. But if Congressman Jorgensen
is correct in his charges made before the
Fourth Virginia district coalition con
vention Thursday, the great repudiator’s
solicitude does not extend to primaries.
If Jorgenson bolts, as he seems likely to
do the boss will have still more need of
a liberal appropriation of “My Dear
Hubbell’s corruption fund.”
A leading Boston manufacturer said a
iew days since. “It is now seventeen
years since the close of the war, and the
national taxes have not been reduced.
Although I am a manufacturer in a
‘protected industry,’ 1 do not believe in
keeping up this enormous revenue. The
burden comes directly upon the business
men of the country.” The Detroit Free
Press thinks “there are a great many
>ther manufacturers who think just as
his one in Boston does.

The Cnrfeacy of the Future.
This is a subject which has occupied a
considerable part of the time and atten
tion of the American Bankers Aasocia.
tion, recently in session at Saratoga, and
it is a matter in which the entire country
is largely interested. At present, the
recognized currency of the country is na
tional bank notes, which are based, as is
well known, upon the securities of the
government. But the time is rapidly
drawing on when the public debt will be
all paid off, and there will be no more
government bonds for the banks to de
posit as security for circulation. The
Association has given a great deal of con
sideration to this subject, so as, if possi
ble, to suggest a means by which the
banks would be able to continue in ex
istence after the debt is paid.
It has been proposed that when the
public debt shall have been reduced to
$300,000,000 no further payment shall
be made on it, and securities to this
amount shall be made permanent, so that
the national banking system may be kept
up. This idea, however, is hardly worth
considering. The people of the country
will never be satisfied to be taxed in
definitely to meet the interest on that
amount of indebtedness just so that the
banks may live. The policy of getting
rid of the debt has been steadily pursued
for many years, and the taxpayers will
not agree to a change of such policy.
The sentiment of the country is evidently
in favor of continuing payment until
the last bond is canceled.
There is no doubt, however, that the
people will be very glad to see the na
tional banking system preserved if it can
l>e done without involving this perpetu
ation of the public debt. National bank
notes form a very convenient currency
vastly superior to the old State bank
system, when not only were wild cat
banks enabled to flourish ad libitum, but
the notes of even responsible banks
would rarely pass outside the States in
which such banks were located without
a discount. This was a great annoyance
which has been completely obviated by
the present system, and, as stated, if the
banks can devise any practical scheme
for their perpetuation, without saddling
upon the country a permanent debt, it
would be very acceptable to the people.
It is believed, however, that this cannot
be done without some very harsh condi
tions, such as the Scotch provision re
quiring the unlimited liability of share
holders for the notes of their bank, and
allowing the note holders to have a first
lien on the assets of the bank. Nothing
less than this can be relied on to keep
bank currency at par at all times, and
place redemption beyond all question.
Should the national bank3 agree to
this, and at the same time consent to
deposit in the Treasury gold and silver
certificates or coin sufficient to guaran
tee their solvency, the system may lie
perpetuated. If they will not agree to
this, or similar conditions, then they
must go out of existence, and the place
of the notes now in circulation will
probably be filled by issues of
government notes. This has already
been advocated by many men of
ability and financial experience as a les3
burdensome system of currency than
bank notes, while equally as safe. It ■
may be, therefore, that in time national
bank notes will disappear and in lieu
thereof additional greenbacks, coin cer
tificates, or some other simple and sound
form of currency will be placed in circu
lation.
Senator Hill’s Funeral.
Expressions of sorrow at the death of
Georgia’s late Senator, Hon. B. H. Hill,
are not confined to the State upon which
he reflected so much credit in Congress.
They come as well from every section of
the country—North, South, East and
West. To day all that is mortal of the dis
tinguished dead will be laid away forever
out of sight in this world. His name
and fame, however, will still survive,
and will always live fresh and green in
the hearts of his fellow citizens.
It will- be seen by a proclamation
of His Honor the Mayor, else
where published, that an opportunity
will be given our citizens to day to
publicly manifest their recognition of the
loss which the State and country has
sustained in the death of the dis
tinguished deceased, and it is to be
hoped the recommendations contained
therein may be generally adopted.
We are satisfied that this silent
yet eloquent tribute to the
life and character of Georgia’s dead
Senator will be faithfully paid by our
people. Great grief always finds appro
priate expression in silence, and the sug
gestion of the Mayor will without doubt
be rega: ded as the most fitting means of
showing the widespread sorrow of our
entiie community over this public be
reavement.
General McCook, of New York, has
come to grief because of the liver and
harbor bill, lie was nominated two
years ago for Congress largely by the
votes of the Thirteenth Assembly dis
trict of his State. Now that district has
held a convention in which the veto was
indorsed, and General McCook wa3 cen
sured for being absent when the bill was
passed over the President’s head. For
his unfaithfulness to duty, the associa
tion declares their Representative in
Congress a3 no longer entitled to the
confidence and support of his constitu
ents.
Recalling the recent visit of Mr. Conk
ling and “Me too” Platt to Mr. Jay
Gould's pa'atial abode on the Hudson,
the New York Times is forced to'the
conclusion that Mr. Conkling has be
come Mr. Gould’s “man.” From what
we can understand of the purpose of the
business, which was to deliberate upon
the best method of smashing Cornell’s
slate, we would infer that Mr. Gould
has become Sir. Conkling’s man. Con
sidering Mr. Gould’s resources he is not
a bad “man” to have.
Our “infant industries” are like a coy
maiden who has arrived at that time of
life when her age is alluded to as “un
certain.”’ She never grows any older,
but time with her stands indefinitely. So
with our manufacturing infants. They
have been infants for the last fifty or
sixty years, and ate infants still. It may
be safely asserted, too, that so long as
the people are heavily taxed for their
support they will remain infants if they
live for a thousand years longer.
The American Woman Suffrage Asso
ciation will hold its thirteenth annual
meeting in Omaha on the 12th and 13th

assemblage will lie to protest against the
nomination of any man “who is so blind
to the signs of advancing civilization
and so ignorant of the principles of true
Republicanism as to deny to women the
political iquality guaranteed to them by
our bill of rights.”
Lord Dufferin is said to be one of the

Some Leaves from History.
In a recent editorial the New York
Tribune says:
“The 'great past’ of the Democratic
party was when it was simply the instru
ment of slavery extension. It has no
other ‘great past. ’ Aside from its des
perate and finally futile efforts in that di
rection it has never accomplished, hardly
even attempted, anything.”
Jay Gould’s young man, who, since
the death of Horace Greeley, has direct
ed the “leading American newspaper,”
never penned more concentrated slush
than is embodied in the paragraph
quoted above. A well informed school
boy could disprove the cheeky assertion,
but it will, doub'less, be accepted by the
Tribune's readers as a solid fact.
The past of Radicalism mirrors a
peaceful land rent in twain, the slaughter
of thousands of its bravest sons, bereaved
households, the almost total annihilation
of the wealth of one section of the coun
try, the creation of a public debt counted
by billions, and the subversion of the
cherished principles of the Republic’s
founders. In its past are pictured the ty
ranny and brigandage of reconstruction,
the corruption of the Grant regime and the
seating of Hayes, a crime against liberty
for which the records of the race furnish
no parallel. Its present, too, is worse than
its past just in proportion as Keifer,Robe
son, Reed, Horr, Cameron, Logan and
the rest of its present leaders sink in
comparison with the men that led it a
decade ago. Its future it is blind to.
“After us the deluge” is the consolation
its leaders take. Other lands have had
their revolutions, but the generations
that followed them were better than their
fathers. The Radical leaders of the
war epoch were daring revolutionists;
those of to-day are simply thieves or
apologists for thieves.
Six years ago the centenary of the
Republic was celebrated. Its grandeur,
power and prospects were the themes of
the world. What contributed most to
the realization of the dreams of its
founders, if it was not the wisdom of
Democracy, which unorganized gave it its
surest safeguard in the sovereignty of the
States, and which as a party shaped its
policy and guided its destinies well nigh
uninterruptedly for sixty years of its ex,
istence? What procured the splendid
empire of the great Mississippi valley, if
not the consummate foresight of Jeffer-
son ? What the great commonwealths of
Texas, California and Oregon and their
future sisters Arizona, and New Mexico?
Its past is glorious, and the years that
the apostles of Radicalism would have
reckoned as marked with disgrace are the
proudest in its aunals.
Whether dominant in the legislative
halls or a meagre minority, denouncing
the tyranny, excesses and corruption of
Radicalism, Democracy has ever
been the same. Its dead counsellors are
numbered among the noblest and
best of earth’s benefactors. It
has lived through the century of
the Republic’s existence and numbers
to day a vast majority of the intelligence
of the country. Whether it shall again
be called to the full enjoyment of power
or be denied the reward its demotion has
earned, it will endure while there re
mains among the people a true under
standing of the structure of our politi
cal system. It saw the birth of the Re
public, and will witness its graud matu
rity or its death.
Dispatches from Washington announce
that applications for the exchange of 3£
percent, bonds into the new 3 per cent,
bonds are still being received at the
Treasury Department. While the exact
amount of the surrendered bonds i3 not
yet known, it is positively asserted that
the plan for the reduction of interest on
the bonds will prove successful. The
amount of per cent, bonds outstand
ing on August 1 was about $417,000,000,
aud it was estimated that about one-half
of them would be exchanged for the new
bonds. That this estimate was not ex
cessive is shown by the fact that $150,-
000,000 have already been surrendered
by the national banks alone, and there is
every reason to believe that the amount
received from these banks will aggregate
nearly $180,000,000. The new bonds
will soon be ready, but will not be issued
until all questions concerning priority in
the award of numbers arc decided, It is
expected that the allotment will be made
soon after the return of Secretary Folgcr
from New York.
The New York Commercial Bulletin
notes the fact that foreign immigration
at that port has dwindled down to a
comparatively unimportant figure,
though the steamship companies expect
a revival during the autumn. The
movement from Germany at last begins
to show signs cf reduction. The official
returns of emigration from the ports of
Hamburg and ‘Bremen, during the first
six months of the year, are as follows,
compared with those of the correspond
ing periods of the preceding years:
1882. 1881. 1880.
Hamburg 03,433 73,633 32.459
Bremen 67,942 72,288 42,616
136,375 145,921 75,115
Although these figures still show a
great increase over those of 1880, it will
be perceived that as compared with last
year, there is a diminution of 79,546
passengers.
The Boston Advertiser would like very
much to see the Republicans of Georgia
win a victory at the polls, but it has no
hopes. In fact, it says that the party is
so torn with internal dissensions that it
does not amount to much of a party. It,
therefore, takes it for granted that there
is no chance of preventing the election
of Mr. Stephens. The Advertiser has
arrived at a just and wise conclusion.
Mr. Stephens’ election is as good a9
assured. Still, as it is never the part of
wisdom to underrate the strength of
one’s enemy, the Democracy of the
State should determine to make as
surance double sure by turning out in
mass on election day.
In the year 1870 the expenses of North
Carolina’s State Government were $349,-
406; in 1881 they were $148,217. Here is
one State, at least, which can produce
evidence of progress and reform. Be
tween the years mentioned there was a
transfer of political power from one
party to the other. Why the people of
the Old North State then should want to
take the back track is hard to see. The
alleged dissatisfaction with the present
system of appointing county govern
ments is the chief capital of the sore
heads. There is probably enough good
sense left in the State to forbid the re
turn of plundering demagogues to
power.
A thick and thin Philadelphia Radical
organ remarks of Pattison, the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of Penn
sylvania, that “he has not a single quali
fication for Governor, except that he is
intelligent, has a high school education
and is honest.” Probably a knowledge
of “practical politics” would raise him
in the estimation of the aforesaid organ.
It is noticeable, however, that his hon
esty is admitted. That is probably one
great reason why, in the eyes of this
Radical organ, he is incompetent for
high public office.

“Why should the President of the United

Deputy sheriff of Kennebec county, Maine.
In 1856 he was sppointed Deputy Secretary

bo hdd for eight years. On June 10, 1864,
he received an appointment, in the office of
the Register of the Treasury, and two years
later was made chief of the note and coupon

one hundred and fifty subordinates were

Judging from the official statement just
published, Italy Is not far behind the rest
of the world in the number or persons who
seek divorces. From January 1, 1866, till
December 81, 1879, 11,481 appeals for matri
monial separations were received; 5.106 of
these came from both parties; 1,269 from
the husband alone, and 4,945 from the wife
alone, while 111 were made against the ar
rangement arrived at. The fate with which
they met shows that there is a careful super
vision of such matters in Italy, for more
than half the requests were not granted, and
the verdicts were decidedly complimentary
to the ladies, since they were found four
times less guilty than the men.
A queer picture of English manners ap
pears in the Pall Mall Gazette (London):
“After much struggling (writes a correspon
dent this morniDg) and by dint of great ex
ertions, I made my way, last night, through
the noisy rabble, which was crowding the
approaches to JPutney station, and event
ually reached a first-class carriage. I was
lucky enough to get a seat, but in a moment
a rush was made, and the carriage was
60on pretty well filled with fourteen or fif
teen people. Five of them were of the gen
tler sex, one of whom took her stand by
me, calling attention, with fine vivacity and
nai7ete, to the tremendous reek of perspi
ration, which wa, in fact, only too plain to
the sense of ail observers. The child of
nature presently ‘mopped it up,’ to use her
own expression, and solaced herself with a
cigarette.”
The changes might be wrung upon the
recreancy of the Radical parly to the
interests of the people in the matter of
Federal taxation, but the truth could
not be more bluntly put than by the
Kansas City Times, when it tersely re
marks :
“So far as Congress is concerned the
main and important issue before the peo
ple is that of tax reduction. The people
demand relief of this character, and they
have come to a full understanding that it
can be legitimately brought about with
out cramping the government or injuring
any industrial interest of the country.
Can this relief be expected from the Re
publican party ? No. The record is
against them." The Republican Congress
that has just adjourned has done one
thing and left undone another, which
forbid the entertainment of the belief
that the burden of taxation will be lifted
from the people so long as monopoly
greedily demands that its bidding be
done by the Republican party.”

SIGNING THE DECLARATION.
Tbe Men who Pledged Tbelr LI rev,
Fortuuei oqd Sacred .Heitor.
In looking at the signatures to the
declaration, not one is written with a
trembling hand except Stephen Hopkins’.
It was not fear that made him tremble,
for he was as true a patriot as any of
them, but he was afflicted with the
palsy.
But one of the residences of the sign
ers is attached to his name, and that is
of Charles Carroll. It is said that one
was looking over his shoulder when he
wrote his name, and said to him: “There
are several of your name, and if we are
unsuccessful they will not know whom
to arrest.” He immediately wrote “of
Carrollton,” as much as to say if there is
reproach connected with this, I wish to
bear my share; if any danger, lam ready
to face it. There was genuine patriot
ism.
It was rather amusing, after they had
signed their names, to hear Benjamin
Franklin say to Samuel Adams: “Now,
I think we will all hang together.”
“Yes,” said Mr. Adams, “or we shall all
hang separately.” Many have supposed
that all the names were signed on the
4th of July, 1776. Not so. It was sign
ed on that day only by the President,
John Hancock, and with his signature it
was sent forth to the world. On the
second day of August it was signed by
all but one of the fifty-six signers whose
names are appended to it. The other at
tached his name in November.
The signers of the declaration of inde
pendence were all natives of the Ameri
can soil with the exception of eight. Six
teen of them were from Eastern or New
England Colonies, fourteen from the
Middle, and eighteen from the Southern
Colonies. One was a native of Maine,
nine were natives of Massachusetts, two
of Rhode Island, four of Connecticut,
three of New Jersey, five of Pennsylva
nia, two of Delaware, five of Maryland,
nine of Virginia, and four of South
Carolina. Two were born in England,
three in Ireland, two in Scotland, and
one was born in Wales.
Twenty-seven of the signers had been
regularly graduated in colleges, or about
one-half. Twenty others had received a
thorough academic education, and the
remainder had each been taught at a
plain school or at home. Of the fifty-six
signers twenty-five had studied the in
stitutions of Great Britain while sojourn
ing in that country. All had something
to lose if the struggle should result in
failure to them. Many of them were
very wealthy, and with very few excep
tions, all of them were blessed with a
competence.
Thirty-four of tbe signers were law
yers, thirteen were planters or farmers,
nine were merchants, five were physi
cians, two were mechanics, one was a
clergyman, one a mason, and one a sur
veyor. The youngest member of Con
gress when the declaration was signed
(Rutledge) was twenty-seven years of age;
the oldest one (Dr. Franklin) was seven
ty, Forty-two of the fifty-six were be
tween thirty and fifty years of age; the
average age of all was forty three years
and ten months.
They all lived to a good old age. The
average of fifty-three at the time of their
decease was over sixty eight years. The
last survivor was Charles Carroll, of
Carrollton, being over ninety when he
died. Fourteen signers lived to be
eighty years old, and four past ninety.
The pen used by the signers is preserved
in the Massachusetts Historical Society
at Boston. What tales that pen could
sptalt! What a history there is connect
ed with it!
Not one of the signers ever fell from
the high estate to which that great act
had elevated him. It had been well
said that “the annals of the world can
present no political body the lives of
whose members, minutely traced, ex
hibit so much of the zeal of the patriot,
dignified and chastened by the virtues of
the man.”
THE LIFE OF A CZ Alt.
How the ItuNtttan Emperor Enjoys
Hlmnelfal Pelerholl',
London Post.
In the meanwhile the Emperor enjoys
himself after his style at Peterhoff, de
fended on every side like a fortress, but
occasionally openly showing himself to
the enemy—the public. The Empress
is slowly recovering from her confine
ment, but the nervous prostration still
remains, and it is said that it is largely
for her sake that the coronation has been
left in the present uncertain condition.
Personally, she is averse to its celebra.
tion, and shares the view of several of
the Czar’s advisers, that if he can rule
Russia without a crown as weli as he can
with one, why should he run the risk ot
a coronation? The Czar has been amus
ing himself of late with a sloop propelled
by electricity, which arrived at Peter
hoff a short time ago from Cronstadt,
where it had been constructed for the
heir apparent. Quite a flotilla of gun
boats and torpedo cutters is mointained
at Peterhoff to guard the place. Great
changes are being made in the personnel
qf the imperial household, and it is stated
that, for the future, the maintenance of
the servants of the palace will only cost
£13,000 a year, instead of nearly £lOO,-
000, as in the time of the late Emperor.
Economy and simplicity characterize
not only the course of life at Peterhoff,
but also the entire higher administration
of the empire. Tjie ostentation that
marked every movement and action of
the late Czar’s brothers, the Grand Duke
Constantine, of the navy, and the Grand
Duke Nicholas, of the army, lias been
replaced by the austere simplicity of the
present Czar’s brothers, Alexis and
Vladimir. The parasites of the late court
are having a terribly bad time of it now.
No mercy is shown them in the reorgani
zations that arc daily taking place, and,
as might be expected, their opinion of
the Czxr is a very bad one and goes to
swell the popular clamor against him.
The Winter Palace is under repair, and
many suits of apartments are ordered to
be furnished afresh. A few weeks ago
a ileal of old lumber found in one of the
garrets of the palace was sold for 2,000
roubles to a dealer in curiosities on the
Nevsky Prospect. The rubbish filled
several wagons, aud although not one
half has been properly examined, the
dealer has already netted 20,000 roubles
by the sale of two valuable pictures he
found the first day among it.
