Jt'DOE IIoADLEY's "key note'
speech, delivered at Hamilton, Ohio,
the other evening, proved to be a sorry
affair.
His arraignment of the republican
party was especially unfortunate tor a
man of his past record and affiliations.
Like all young, zealous, political con- j
verts, he seems to forget th9 day? when
he Was a member of that part v. himself ;
his attack upon it on .u-r-oiiiit of the
"whiskey frauds.' tin- " r-t-.r rottto'
scandals," the ' riv -f an 1 harbor appro
priation?," and the tanfV 1-islation,
exhibit his ignorance of the crttrrent
events of the dny, as these questions
aroe, and were disposed of, and also
his utter disregard for the position
the Democratic party occupied to
each of these events in our political
history, both in Congress and out of it.
It is true whi?key frauds existed,
which had their inception under the
true blue Democratic rule of Andy
Johnson; yet they were discovered, ex
: posed, and completely crushed out un-
der Republican rule. Judge Iloadlcy
doubtless remembers Grant's famous or
der, "Let no guilty man escape'
Yet he is a demagogue, and being a
demagogue, he presumes upon the ig
norance of the masses. As to the star
j route frauds, this teacher uf the peo
) pte should remember ihaLJhe smoke of
the conflict ha3 not yet cleared away
i from the atmosphere, caused by this
i republican party pro.rnitiaif the men
j charged with having hid a hand in
; these- frauds, and that ii;e person or
; standing cf no man has '-v.i respected
: by the officers of tlu- L.or rnment in
; their attempts to brii ; ;':. gMiity to
; punishment
FACTS.
To our democratic friends vh 1 are
hunting for arguments in favor of a
change, we desire to submit a few plain
statistics. They would naturally raise
the cpuestion, Could democracy have
done better? The close of the fiscal
year shows that during the year 1883 3
our public debt was reduced almost
$138,000 000, and that during the month
of June, when the revenues are . nol
specially large, the reduction amounted
to over $18,000,000, the largest in any
one month under the existing system of
taxation. In August, 1863, the bonded
debt of the United States was $3,381,
530, 304, of which $l,281,736,o30 bore
0 per cent; 8;50,000,000 7 per ;cent, and
A-'OO 1 7.1. 7 7 5 ner cent interest, the
leeinan j total interest charge being $1.10,877,697.
onV'""" i debt statement issued June 30th,
jc, reiorieu me uouueu ueui 01 iub
government to be $1,438,220,150, of
which $22,082,600 bears per cent,
$304,204,350 3 per cent, $250,000,000
4i per cent and $073,580,300, 4 per
cent interest. That is, all the rates of
interest are now Irom 2 to 4 per cent
less than they were in 1865. Now the
interest charge on the public , debt is
$01,430,709. i,In other words, the - 4n
terest-bearing debt Das been reduced
1,043,301,144 during the past eighteen
years, and the interest change almost
$10,000,00. Our English free trading
friends-can also see in the Ogures an
excellent lesson. When England can
show a like diminution of her enormous
public debt, it will be time enough for
her eminent statesmen to set them
selves up as models for American fol
lowing. Inter Ocean,

The Supreme Court of the st:.te have
just rendered an important fie dsion in
the case of "Chiictiajn Schlu: !. vs the
Ti. Ac M. in Neb." This is llu case in
which Mr. Schluutz brought action
against the rrilroad Company for dam
ages to his Cedar Creek mill property,
occasioned by the construction of a
switch through this prone: ty to Y. fl
E. Stout's stone quarry ; in the trial of
the case iu the district court of Cass
county, Mr. Schluntz recovered, at the
hands of a jury, a judgment for $1,509.
The railroad carried the case to the su
preme court, where it was yesterday de
Cided in Mr. Scbluntz's favor; on ae
count of the questions arising: in this
case, and as presented by the record, it
will prove an interesting and leading
case upon the question of the measure
of damage, and competency of evidence
and Droof in this class of cnes. Th
opinion is by Justice Lake.

Dennis Kearney has no notion of
pooling issues with farmers. His "phi
losophy" extends to the wage class
only. Following the logic of his po
sition, that the laboring man is inter- ;
ested simply in his daily pay, he strides j
handa with the monopolists. When he
reaches New York he may not find
Gould or Vandeabilt at home, but he
crtainlv ought to travel as a dea'd
head. The genuine anti-monopolists
are to be congratulated upon their de
liverance from an incumbrance. Inte-Ocean.
