HAYES NAILED IN HIS COFFIN.
The Chicago Times has unearthed a
new piece of swindling by Hayes. The
facts are brief. Young Leroy, a soldier
in Hayes divsion, gave him 111,000,
counted in the presence of two persons,
before the battle in which he was
killed. After the war, the fact was
mentioned to Leroy’s father by one of
the witnesses. He paid no attention to
it at first, but it was brought to his at
tention again twice, by different men.
He inquired about, and various mem
bers of the command confirmed the
statement. He then demarded payment
of Hayes. The following thin replies
of Hayes showed his attempt to bluff,
his concession and admission, with an
effort to evudo and avoid. It is a piti
ful exhibition of moral weakness and
criminality. The replies which contain
the gist of the case against Hayes are
as follows, the first being a reply to Mr.
Leroy’s letter demanding the money:
Coujmbus, 0., October 21,1869.—Mr.
James I^eRoi/: Sir—I have no recollection
of any such person, and consequently
could not have had his money. You
must bo mistaken, or some one is trying
to impose upon you.
It. B. Hayes.
The second reply is os follows :
Columbus, O., November 2, 1869.—
Mr. James LeRog: Slit — In reply to
yours of October 26, say that I remem
ber the person you spoke of, but never
had any money belonging to himYou
are being deceived, or are trying to
biacknmil me. Yours, etc.,
R. B. Hayes.
Mr. Hayes again wrote in reply:
Columbus, O., November 16,1869.—
James LcRoy, Esq.: Sir—In reply to
yours of the Gth inst., must say that •I
had left with me some of the boy's money,
but it was all returned by mo before
the battle. I think you intend to levy
blackmail on me. Yours, etc.,
R. B. Hayes.
It is a sweet record for a Presidential
candidate, representing the great moral
idea of reform within the party.
ABOUT THE PUBLIC CHEDI l\
Judge Wright in his speech day-befoic-
yesterday gave some interesting figures
relative to the public debt and the pre
mium on U. S. bonds. The subject is a
fruitful one for thought, and we add to
the Judgo’s statement a few more, which
we trust our readers will bear in mind
when Republican orators are extolling to
the skies the splendid policy of Mr. Mor
rill :
United States credit now stands at 41
per cent., and Secretary Morrill is en
gaged in refunding $300,000,000 of the
five-twenty 6 per cent, bends at the lower
rate. If he shall succeed—and we earn
estly hope he will—tho saving of interest
on the amount refunded will be $4,500,-
000, a year. The Republicans are claim
ing this exaltation of the public credit as
a marvellous achievement, and are never
weary of challenging the country’s ad
miration and gratitude for it. Let us
look into the matter a little.
At the beginning of Grant’s adminis
tration United States 6 per ceut._ bonds
were worth 83 cents in gold—that is, $830
for a $1,000 bond ; now they are worth,
Bay $1,000. Here is a gain of 8170 in
tho value of each of these bonds—a gain,
by the way, which goes to tho bond
holder. Let us admit that, under Re
publican management, there has been
this appreciation of our bonds, this exul
tation of the national credit; let us ad
mit that the Republicans have done it all,
and that they alone are entitled to the
credit of having brought about a state of
thing which make in possible to sell U.
S. 4} bonds at par, and substitute them
for 6 per cent, bonds. Then comes in the
question: How has this been brought
about, and how much has it cost ?
These 6 per cent, bonds now being
replaced with 41 per cent, bonds, are
five-twenties. They are payable now;
they were payable ten years ago, when
the Grant administration came into
power, They were payable, by their
terms, in lawful money, that is, green- slon6
backs. There is no doubt about this.
Senator Sherman, chairman of the sen
ate committee on finance, said bo; Mr.
Stevens of Pennsylvania, chairman of
the bouse committee on ways and
means, said so; and the act under which
the bonds were issued virtually said so
too. The bondholders, a large number
of whom were members of congress,
objected, and claimed that they were
payable in coin. As there were $1,600,
000,000; of these bonds out, and the
difference between greenbacks and coin
at the time was 40 cents on the 100, it
was a very important matter; the
amount involved was 40 per cent, on
$1,600,000,000, say $640,000,000.
Strangely enough, the first Republican
congress under the Grant administra
tion took the bond-holders’ view. It
passed “an act to strengthen the public
credit,” as it was called, in which it
enacted that this enormous amount of
bonds should be paid, not in greenbacks
but in coin. This act did strengthen
the public credit, certainly, but at a
cost to the people of about $640,000,-
000. It was the first step in the Re
publican enterprise of improving the
value of the United States bonds in the
hands of the public creditors. The
next was a scarcely less brilliant exam
ple of financiering—the steady month
ly purchase by the govrnment of these
bonds whose price bad been increased
by its own act. It was as if a wealthy
debtor sbold, first, voluntarilly bind
himself to redeem his greenback debts
in gold, and then go into tho market
and buy up his own notes.
Tlte third step in the Republican
scheme of strengthening the public
credit was the passage of the silver
demonetizations bill in 1873. which
took from the people the right of pay.
ing tho national debt in gold and sil
ver, and restricted them to gold alone
as the medium of payment. As gold
is 10 to .12 per cent, dearer than silver
this made another addition to the val
ue of the bonds, at the expense of the
people. We Bay that gold dollars are
now worth 10 to 12 per cent, more than
silver dollars. What will be the rela
tive value of the true metals during the
next twenty years we cannot predict;
but if the superior yalue of gold dol
lars shall be only 5 per cent, tho tie-
monetization act will add 5 per cent
to the national debt, or about $100,000,
000.
Thus, it is seen thut tho cost to the
people of the improvement of the
national credit, which the Republicans
are boasting of, has been 8740,000,000.
If there is any cause for thanks in this,
let us be thankful by all means; if the
people owe gratitude to those who
wantonly increased their burdens, they
owe a debt of gratitude, $740,000,000
in amount, to the Republican party.

The Campaign.
A Sun reporter visited tho headquar
ters of the Democratic State Committee
in the Everett House yesterday, to as
certain the condition of the Democratic
canvas in the State of New York. In
each of the committee’s rooms were
unmistakable indications that vigorous
and effective work is being done. In
the business room Mr. Daniel Magone,
the Chairman, and Mr. Wm. W. Gor
don, the Secretary of the Committee,
wore busy answering the questions of
chairmen of county coommittees, pres
idents of campaign clubs and other in-
quiiing visitors. In the working rooms,
clerks were preparing documents for
the mails.
To the reporter’s question, Mr. Ma
gone replied thut more work was being
done than had been attempted in any
previous canvas. Large numbers of
documents wero being sent in every
election district, arrangements were
being rapidly perfected for mass meet
ings in every county, and an accurate
canvae of the voters in every election
district was in progress. Since the can
vas opened, twelve hundred Tilden and
Hendricks clubs had been organized in
the State.
“ The reports that we have received
from the various counties,” said Mr.
Magone, “are much more favorable
than they were at this stage of the can
vas in 1874. Tho information that
comes to us is precise and definite, and
affords much better evidence of the con
dition of affairs than the opinions of
influential politicians. These opinions
are usually based on heresay testimony,
which, at best, is vague and uncertain.
Most of our information is in the shape
of reports containing the names of elec
tors in cities, towns and villages who
have declared their intention to vote for
Tilden and Hendricks. On nearly
every one of those reports are names of
men who have heretofore voted the Re
publican ticket. These reports are con
fined to known cases, and therefore fur
nish good evidence of the drift of pub
lic sentiment.”
“ Do your reports indicate that many
Republicans will vote the Democratic
ticket?”
“ They show,” answered Mr. Magone,
“ very large accessions to our ranks
from the Republican party. There is
scarcely a town in the State in which
some Republicans have not come over
to us. In some towns where there are
500 voters the accessions number from
twenty-five to fifty. Many of these Re
publicans have joined Tilden and Hen
dricks clubs; others have openly de
clared their change of political relations.
In addition to these, there are many
who, for various reasons, maintain a
nominal connection with the Republi
can party, but say that they shall vote
for Gov. Tilden, for the sake of a change
in the Administration. These acces-
continucd Mr. Magone, “do not
come from the floating voters, who are
usually uncertain up to the day of the
election. They are from the best class
of citizens. Most of those whose names
have been sent to us are business men.
manufacturers, merchants, farmers and
mechanics.”
“ Are these changes general through
out the State, or are they confined to
particular regions?”
“ Our reports indicate that we are re.
cciving accessions from the Republican
party in every county in the State,” an
swered Mr. Magone. “They are larger,
however, in the agricultural and mining
districts than in the cities.”
“ Can you give an estimate of the
number of Republicans who will vote
for Gov. Tilden ?”
“ We have not received complete re
turns from every election district in the
State. But if the reports to come show
anything like as great a change as those
which we have received, the accessions
will amount to nearly, if not fully, ten
per cent, of the Republican vote in the
State.”
“ Do you not expect to lose some
Democratic votes in the counties in
which the Canal Ring were once poW'
erful?”
“We shall certainly lose some in
those counties,” replied Mr. Magone,
“ But in no event can the loss amount
to 5,000 votes. And that loss will be
more than balanced by the gains that
we shall make in the agricultural dis 1
tricts in those very counties. The farm,
ers in those counties are taxpapers,
They know thut the Canal Ring stole
more than $2,000,000 yearly, and that
Gov. Tilden, by his exposure of the
Ring, saved the people that sum, and
thereby lessened their taxes. They will
surely vote for the man who did them
that service. The Canal Ring did all
they could last year. But they did not
defeat the State ticket. They certainly
cannot defeat us this year.”
“How much majority do you think
Gov. Tilden will receive in this State?”
asked the reporter.
“ In my opinion,” replied Mr. Ma
gone, “ Gov. Tilden will carry this State
by 75.000 majority.”
At this Gov. Tildeii, who had enter
ed the room while Mr. Magone was
speaking, said:
“I don’t see bow the majority can
be any less; and if those Western States
do what we expect them to do, it will
be larger.”
Then, in reply to a question as to
the effect of the result in Ohio and
Indiana on the Presidential election,
the Governor said, “if the Democrats
carry both Indiana and Ohio the battle
will bo easily won. If we carry Indi
ana, and the Republicans carry Ohio,
there will bo a good fight all along the
line. If we loose both of those States.
wo shall have to fight hard. But I
think we shall succeed.”
The Governor added that Indiana
and Ohio should go Democratic. “Ad
vices from Illinois,” said he, “indicate
that ohanges similar to those which"are
going on in this State are taking place
there. If that is so, I should think
there ought to be similar changes in
Ohio and Indiana.
The Macon Telegraph and Messenger
has two pages of delinquent tax-payers.
It says:
Look at the delinquents. Ah! breth
ren, is it not enough to make an angel
weep? They are tho men who won’t pay
one dollar for the protection of Govern
ment and for the education of their
children. It is a list of skulkers from
the least one of the obligations of citi
zenship—men who practically demand
that their fellow-citizens shall Bupport
government for them, and, reasoning
by analogy, would if they could, de
mand that the public should feed and
clothe them.
And yet no doubt n? any of these one
dollar non-taxpayers are high on their
rights as cititens! They must be partic
ularly suited in all nominations for
office, and are loud in primary meetings.
Some of them, perhaps, have four or
five children at the public schools, and
demand the very best kind of accom
modations.
But none of them will vote this time,
unless they pay up. That is some com
fort.
St. Louis Politics. —Eleci ioueering
in St. Louis has been reduced by both
parties to a science, the old and unex
ceptionable methods which largely ob
tain in the country being numbered
among the lost arts. In fact, office seek
ing in St. Louis is -fbr the most part a
shameless ’system—tho “ bummer” ele
ment often bearing sway and dominating
over the more intelligent, orderly and
patriotic working and business men who
pay the taxes and without whom the*e
would be no St. Louis.
It is stated that if all the bronze med-
ii Is awarded at the Centennial on
Wednesday night were laid down in a

make a string almost a mile in length.
If they wi re piled up one above tho

five hundred feet high.

A letter, which was written by a lady
in Georgia, contains the following state
ment:
“ I went, a few days ago, over a planta
tion which has some forty hands on it,
chiefly as tenants, running one, two and
three-horse farms. They began a few
years ngo with neither provisions nor stock.
One negro, entirely free from debt, will
make over thirty bales of cotton and
plenty of corn, besides other provisions.
Others will make in smaller proportions ;
but all are independent or becoming so,
and do not know that these are hard
times.”—New York Post.
The general election is practically be
ing fought out in the State elections in
Ohio and Indiana. Whichever party
gets a decided advantage in these is
now quite certain to win in the main
contest. Two weeks ago the Democrats
had greatly the advantage in both
States, but tbe Republicans are making
a tremendous "spurt,” as the oarsman
say, and constantly gaining. The pros
pect is that they will gain Ohio but
ose Indiana, both by small majorities.
—Springfield Republican, Ind., Rep.
The New York Herald prints some
long letters describing the Ohio elec
tion and referring to them editorially,
says: “As the day for the State elec
tion approaches the interest in the way
in which the Buckeye State will cast
its vote will increase to an extraordi
nary degree, A few weeks ago all the
attention was directed to Indiana,
Ohio being looked on ns certain for the
Republicans. In the interval the true
state of the case has become known,
and Ohio is classed as doubtful.”
If the South should array itself in
solid column against the Republican
party at the next Presidential election,
and for all time to come, it will occa
sion no surprise in the minds of intel
ligent observers of passing events. A
solid south is the natural product of
Republican misrule, and it is a protest
against the most loathsome tyranny
that ever wa6 imposed upon a people
acting under the name of freedom.—

should think that the proportion between

The accusation against the present
and other recent administrations is not
that money has been directly embez
zled, but that it lias been extravagantly
expended, and often to the profit indi
rectly of those who have had tho dis'

public official that ho has not stolen
