And now comes a rumor which, if true,
bids fair 1 o bodiroiiie people 110 good.
As is well known, the brotherhood of
firemen and engineers have, since the stike
0:1 the 15. oc M. riceived pay, monthly,
from their respective orders. The cash
has been distributed by men from heael
fpiarttTS selected for the purpose. It is
rumored that the pay for last month is
still being awaited by the men here for
this reason, bonio days ago, it is said,
tin- paymaster started for Omaha wilh
about &4.000 with which to liquidate the
claim of the societ y. Hut, as reported.
the mi 11 are still wa'-ting. "It is allcget
that the paymaster instead of paying oft
as be should, blew the wlmle amount in
on faro at Cuuncl 1 11 u ITs. A striking en
gineer was s-een yesterday morning and in
reply to a tpustion as to whether they
had received their allowance for last
month, said "he had not" So it would
seem that something is in the vi: tl. Th
nioniy was due long ago and if l.ot paid
by this time there is surely something
wrong. Iiee.

TRUTH AN UNTRUTH.
Just in time to contract with Mr. Pat
terson's manly frank.iess on the tari fi'
ipc-lion comes Governor Hill's speech, in
which he said, if the St. Louis, platform
was for free trade, he would not stand
on it. The Governor has ncyer made any
reputation as an honest man in his
public career, and it is natural that he
resorts to a deception iu his first speech
of the campaign.
Amitlu r iltanocrat unintentionally ut
ters a great truth, in declaring that the
St. Louis platform is no more for free
trade than the republican platform of
100 was for abolition. Not any more
and every democrat who supported
Douglas or I'reckeuriilge in lSiJO declared
the republican an abolition party, and
its platform an obolition platform. They
quoted with zest the. profound remark of
Mr. Lincoln, that the republican party
meant to place slavery "where the public
mind would rest in the certainty of its
ultimate extinction." That i exactly
what the democrats mean to do with the
protective policy. Thev rot propose
to abolish it, by no means. They only ;
intend to cripple and destroy it, part by
part, so that "the public mind shall rest
in the certainty of its ultimate extinc
tion." Moreover, the public mind will
have the best if reasons fur expecting
the ultimate and the speedy extinction
of the protective system i f the democratic
party get complete control of the gov
ernment, The dir.linetion is proper and the ebm
ocrats are welcome lo it. They ele not
intend free tradj this year. What they
want is to proceed toward free trade as
fast and a.i far as they can. "Freer ttv.de"
now, as Governor Hill pui.-: it: free trade
as the ulti;r.iie end, Mr. "Watterson con
fesses. The two democrats fit each other
well. To make a dishonest party, they
are needed men to tell falsehoods where
false hoods pay, and other m .-n to tell
the truth where the truth pays lxst.N.
