Nearly all are for Cleveland anil for either Turner or Reform -which is represented U Judge Atkinson. The editor of the Bruns* irk Time*, which sails under the soaring nomdc- plume of “The Brunswick daily Flop* per” in the columns of aereral of ita un charitable contemporaries, is disturbed over a ptaMible outbreak of discontent among the stock holders of the Hf.bam» Company. We will quiet his fears on that line by assuring him that the pres ent lesse, was re-elected .director by a full vote of the stockholder at their re cent meeting. However much some of them may differ as to candidates, they are unanimous in their conteui|»t for a mau who hasn't the courage to sustaiu his honest convictions. The circum stances connected with the ‘ Hop" of the Times, are, of course, sensitive (mints with the editor, Init he need not antici pate that the editor of the Hf.rai.h will will join him in his misery. Ho i man say he is in favor of the Ocala demands subject to the Dem ocratic conventions * The Ocala de mands are legislative demands, and not •lemands upon the Democratic (tarty. ~ Brunswick Times. Simple enough, neighbor ! The uieui- liers of a political (tarty have the privi lege of asking their party to adopt meas ures of rrforrn. They can demand at tention from their (sditiral friends and (•arty. The party once in tamer can enact into laws the measures to which it is committed. You can demand that your agent or representative carry out your wishes. But you cannot ex|»ect him to do so unless lie is pledged to do «o. Congress has nothing to do with fixing platforms of principles. » THE HCBTfcEJUHJBY PLAN BEX- • OCRATIC! [Controversy continued]. Edi/er Hera/d; — Thank* for your prompt—I with I could add, “and satis factory, Let me in the first place retract the dirrrt. I regret having used the word. It waa unnecessary, and furnished a very fine hair for splitting, which was very promptly and artistically done. I desire now to put you on the defense of both the meamrf and the mdkod. My “intent” is simply to insist that the suhtreaaury idea, or any other idea that means governmental aid to the peo ple, is antagonistic to that prinriplc of Democracy that opposes anything like paternalism. I am quite willing to admit that Dem ocracy is progressive, but I must insist that it lias not progressed so far as to reverse »•* psitinn on this, its cardinal doctrine. That would lie revolution rather than progression. I too, may lie mistaken as to your in tent Mr. Editor, but as I understand it, your position is that we are now in the hands of a plutocracy brought about largely by the undemocratir national banking system, and that the sub-treasu ry idea is the only measure now known by which the power of the national banks can be overthrown, and the rule of democia:y reestablished. If the national banking system be un democratic, and I am not jtrepared to deny it. I cannot see how the sub treasury idea can In* further defended, for it is but an extension of the princi ple. whereby more people'nre benefited. * If the financial evils complained of, have been brought about bv government aid to the few, which is essentially un democratic, the remedy proposed, is to extend the same aid to the many where by it becomes democratic. My logic may l»e at fault, but it looks very much to me, as trying to put out a lire by burniug the house down. Why not let the government make us a 1 1 rich at once? Jkffkrsomax Democrat. opposed directly to centralization of the money power in the hands of the fear, and for breadth of scope and directness of application has never been equaled by any measure of reform yet proposed. These results are surely the vital birth marks of Jeffersonian democracy. “ THE DEMAND IVR MORE MOS EY: EFI.V IIKK Vfc agree with you that centralization or paternalism are undemocratic. You will without doubt agree with ih that eoncentratioii of governmental (tower is a proper definition of centralization niul paternalism. \oii assume that the suit-treasury plan is uiidenuteratie ltecuiise tending to cen tralization. You sustain this view by the argument that Itecause the National bank system is tuulenioeratie, the suit- treasure plan as 'an extension of that system is still farther removed from democracy. Yet we note that you are not quite sure that the national' bank therefore the xteusiou must, logical- I’nder the above caption the editor of j the Savannah News undertakes to show that we are really on a very good finan- | rial condition after all. He assures us that we are all mistaken, as there is more money in the country now than ever before. If he will take the trouble to read the open letter of Hon. John Davis, of Kansa*. to the secretary of the treasury, he will sec that some grave errors in the secretary’s report 'are (minted out and evidence produced to sustain the assertion that the amount of money iu circulation in 1865 was $47.42 per capita, and thal there lias been a steady decrease in the (ter capita circula tion. The trouble with the secretary’s l report is that he fails to account for $830,000,000 of 7-30 notes that were then in circulation a* money, and have since been withdrawn. We will admit, for sake of argument, that there is sufficient money now in the country to satisfy the condition! of trade. According to the News editor’s own statement it is in the hands of pri vate money speculators, and not among the (teople, and our cotton fails to find a market* for that very reason, that all over the world the industrial classes arc suffering on account of a scarcity of the medium of exchange. He says the wheat farmers are not complain ing of a scarcity of money. A little in quiry in that direction wonld convince him of his error. The effort to make the tariff the main issue before the ]>eop|c is causing some of our esteemed city editors to become blind to the real condition of things. They see plenty of money because it is congested in the money centres, lint they know little of the real distress among the masses of the people. It was this same quieting sense of se curity that caused the great plutocrats of Uoinc to mistake the conditions and tcmjHT that resulted in the Agrarian “Why doesn't (V>1.
