Continued from first page. result, both cheated laughter ; and thus, day by day. little by little, the sanctity of the ballot-box has been destroyed, and that party was con sidered the smartest party that could get in the most illegal votes and get thorn counted. All that must bei Etopped, or this country cannot en dure, and it is the mission of the Republican party to stop it, and that is another reason why I am a Re publican. That party ha thrown every safeguard around the ballot box in every State in this Union WHERE ANY SAFEGUARD HAS BEEN THROWN. That party hac always been in fayor of registration; the Democratic par ty has always opposed it. That par tythe Republican party haB done all it possibly could do to secure an hopest expression of the great will of the people. Every man here who Is in favor of an honest ballot-box ought to vote the Republican ticket; every man here in favor of free speech ought to vote the Republican ticket. Free speech is the brain of this Republic, an honest vote. Ib its life-blood. Applause. There are two reasons, then, why I am a Republican : First I belreve in free speech. Secondly I want an honest vote. Can you trust the people of the South with the ballot-box? Are you willing to let Alabama keep that sacred treasure, Alabama, that cast in 1S7G about 103,000 votes for Tilden, but only a little while ago c9t a Democratic majority of 92, 000?. Laughter. Alabama to-daj is a Republican State if every man was allowed freely to vote his sen timents; and you know it. Ap plause. Mississippi if to-day a Republican State; North Carolina is a Repub lican State; South Caroliua is a Republican State ; Florida is a Re publican State; and everybody who knows anything knows what I say is true. Applause. How are they kept in the Democratic ranks? Are they kept there by the men who are trying to protect the ballot-box? They are kept thero by the Bhotgun, they are kept there by the tissue ballot, thfy are kept by force and fraud. Mask murderers in the dead of nsght ride to the cabin of the freedman and 6hoot him down re gardless of the fehriekinga of his wife and the tears of his babes. That is the way the Southern States are kept Folidly Democratic. Ap plause. Ah, but they pay to me, "Are you willing that the black peo ple should control the South?" If the black people are in favor of liberty-, and the white people are op posed, then I want the black people to control. ApplauHC. If the black people believe that this is a Nation, and tho white people there say it is h simple Confederacy, then 1 want the black people to con trol tho South. (Applause and cries of "Good." If tho black peo ple are in favor of our lowest vote, if the black people are In FAVOR OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH, if the black people are in favor of absolutelv guarding the ballot-box from fraud, and if the white rcople are on tho other side on theso ques tions, then I 6ay let the black people inle that country. Applause. 1 think more of a black friend than I do of a white enemy. Applause. I think more of a black man who loves liberty than I do of a white man who hates it. 1 thiuk more of a black man who upheld our flag in war than of any white man who has tried to tear it down. Applause That is my doctrine. fApplause, and cries of "All right!" I think more of the man trampled down than I do of the tramplcr. I think more of the man stolen from than I do of the thief. Applause, and cries of "Give it to them, Bob.") There Is another thing. "We have not only got to have free speech, not only got to have an honest ballot, but wc have got to raise a revenue in this country. We owe to-day one billion nine million dollars, a Dem ocratic debt. Applause and laugh ter. Democracy is the greatest luxury we ever afforded. Ap plause and laughter, aud cries of "Hit them again." We have got to pay that debt. Why? If we don't we will be eternally disgraced in tho eyes of the civilized world. When our money is only worth SO cents on the dollar every American falls 20 per cent below par. Laugh ter When our money Is at par, K are. Laughter. When we canuot pay our bonds we feel that we aro a dishonored people, but when our bouds bearing only 4 per cent, and are worth 140 in the mar ket, we feel proud; aud when we-go to another country and see one of tho?5 bonds, that bond certifies that an American is an honest man. Ap phu'. Who are you going to tiutto.ay this debt? that is the qui-Minn. Whom are you willing to trur.t with the honor of the Uni ted State? The men who defended her flag will defend her honor. Ap plause The men who tried to.tear her flag down n ill trample America's honor beneath their feet. Who is going to pay? The democrats sol emnly swore that we never would pay. Laughter. In the year of grace 1878, standing in the CENTRE OF TRUTH AND KNOWLEDGE, the democratic party in every sol itary State, with exception of two or three of the New England States, in which it held a "Convention, sol emnly resolved that the UDited States could not rcsumo specie-payments. Well, we did. Applause , and laughter. A voice: "They i lied.". Wo did. Laughter. Thoj resolved that the War was a failure, and immediately thereafter we suc ceeded, and tho old flag was carried iu glory over every inch of the Uui ted States. Applause. They have neyer made & prophecy that was fulfilled. (Laughter.) Their proph ecies and their promises are exactly alike. (Laughter and applause.) Whom can we trust to pay this debt? Whom can we trust to give U6 good money? A greenback to-day is as good.es gold. Who made it so? The democrats in their conventions solemnly resolved that it would never be good. Well, they helped a little, I have no doubt, because everybody knew that what they re solved would not be true. (Great laughter.) AU you have to do is to copper a Democratic resolution. (Applause aud laughter.) Now, in order to pay this debt, aud I will come to the money question, after which we have got to have revenue, it has got to be collected. Will you trust to collect the North or South, the Republican or the Dem ocratic party ? Recollect, the Dem ocratic party has been fasting for twenty years. (Laughter.) It has suffered all the agonies of oflicial famine. (Laughter) Not a bite for twenty years. (Great Laughter.) The democratic party to-day is a vast aggregate official appetite. (Laughter.) Who aro you going to trust? Will we trust the Southern States to collect the revenues of tho Uuiou? In four years, with the In ternal Revenue Department, we have collected of internal tax, $400, 000,000 at a coBt of about 3 per cent. This in four years. During four yera wo have captured, destroyo.l, Hnd libeled 3,874 illicit distileries in Southern States. (Laughter.) Re member it; we have captured and indicted 7,084 Democrats in South ern States, charged with defrauding the revenue of the couutry. (Laugh ter.) The Southern people, resisting the Collectors of Federal tax in the last four years, have shot and killed twenty-flve revenue officials, aud have wounded fifty-flvo; and now iu the Southern States that is, in many of them every Revenue Col lector, every officer connected with that branch of the Government, is provided by tho Internal Revenue Department WITH A BREECH-LOADING RIFLE and a pair of revolvers. Laughter. Are they the gentlemen to collect our revenues? Will you depend upon them to pay the interest on $1,400,000,000 and the current ex penses of this Government? It woa't do. Laughter. I heard a story of a couple of Methodist min isters who had been holding a camp meeting, and after they had preached a week one said to the other ; "Let's tako up a subscription." "Good,'' said he. So he passed his hat, gave it to a brother, and he passed it around, and finally came hack and handed it to the preacher, and he turned it over on tho pulpit, and there was a lot of old nails, matches, toothpicks, buttons, and not one solitary cent laughter; and the other preacpr said, looking at it ; "Let us thank God" (laughter), and th owner of the hat said, "What for?" and the other replied, "He cause you got your hat back." (Great laughter.) If we depend upon the Southern States to collect the revenues of this country we won't get our bat back. (Laughter.) Now then, my friends, if you want an honest ballot, if you want the revenues of the couutry collected, yote the Republican ticket. Then there is another, thing w'e want; we want good money; we want honest mouey. I know there have been a great many theories on mouey, .aud I never knew a man that had not a dollar himself who had not a scheme to make somebody else rich. (Laughter.) These theo ries were produced, of course, by the circumstances we went through tho war. We had, as they say, plenty of money ; that is to say, we had no money; plenty of promises, but no money ; plenty of notes, but no cash ; and while we were sailing on a eredit we sailed well, and as long as I can buy all I want on a credit my family shall not suffer. (Liughter.) We were going into debt, and as a rule it is an- exceed ingly prosperous time in a man's life when he is getting into debt. (Laughter.) As a rule it is an ex ceedingly hard time when he is paying this debt. (Laughter.) Mil lions and millions of promises were issued. The result waB that prices went up just in proportion as the value of the promises went down, and that was AT THE EXl'ENBE OF THE CREDITOR CLASS. Expansion is always at the expense, of creditors, and when the wheel of fortune takes a turn, and contraction comes, that is always at the expense of the debtor. At the same time people claimed absolute justice would be done; but the trouble is, creditors do not mean the same. The very man who was a creditor, and at whose expense the inflation came, when contraction comes may be a debtor, and consequently suffer both ways. We had vast and splendid schemes for the future. We began to bny lots twenty miles from Chi cago, lots that the frogs had held undisputed, sway over since the morning stars sang together. On paper we laid this land out into squares, avenues, boulevards, and were selling what cost $10 dollars an acre lor $10 a foot and $50 a foot, and all at once in 1873 the crash came and all these lots resumed. (Great laughter.) A fellow who had bought on credit, paying two thirds down, found that the lots would not pay the other third. (Laughter.) Hundreds of thoueauds of men were ruined, aud all at onco they said, "What we waut is another inflation ; we want more money," and I never heard one that was caught speaking on the subject who did not say, "If there ever comes another inflation you may shoot me." (Laughter.) W.ien contrac tion came certain men were left with the bngs to hold, and they were tho men who got up new financial theo ries, and I do not blame them. (Laughter.) It is precisely the same as it is in a gamo of cards, where men have been playing poker all night. I do not believe there is a man here that will understand this campaign. (Liughter.) Along .to wards morning the fellow who is ahead has got to go home, his wife is not very well. Tho other fellow, who is behind, says "No; nobody but a coward will jump the game; let us get another candle, and we will have another deal ;" and so it was that the Greenback theory start ed. We want another deal. We have been lett high and dry iu the brush miles from the channels. If water cau only come once nioro if wo do not float off it will be out fault. (Laughter.) NO MAN CAN IMAGINE, all the lauguages of the world can not express, what the people of the United States suffered from 1873 to 18711. Men who considered them selves millionaires found that they were beggars; men living iu palacles, supposing they had enough to give sunshine to the winter o their age, supposing they had enough to have all they loved in affluence and com fort, suddenly found that they were mendicants with bond, slocks, mor tgages, all turned to ashes in their aged, trembling hands. Tho chim neys grew cold, the tires in furnaces went out, the poor families were turned adrift, and the highways of the United Slates were crowded with tramps. Into the homo of the poor crept the serpent of temptation, and whispered in the ear of poverty the terrible word "repudiation." I want to tell you that you cannot conceive of what the American peo ple suffered as they staggered over the deserl of bankruptcy trom 1873 to 1879. We are too near now to know how grand wo wore. The poor mechanics said "No" ; tho mill ed manufacturer said "No"; tho once millionaire said "No, wo will settle fair, we will agree to pay whether we over pay or not, and we will never soil tho American name with the infamous word 'repudia tion.'" Aro you not glad? What 19 the talk? Are you not glad that our flag is covered all over with financial honors? The stars shine and gham now because they repre sent au honest Nation. They said during that time, "We must have more paper," and the Republican party said : "Let us pay what wo have." I am in favor ofh.ivlng that as mouey which no human being can create. I believe in gold and silver. I believe in silver, because that is one of the great productions of our country, aud when you add a uso to a thing you add a value to that thing, and I want silver money ; but I want a silver dollar big enough to be worth a gold dollar, if you have to have it three feet in diame ter. Nothing is ever made by ras cality. I do not waut it understood that wc are a nation of coin clippers. I want honest dollars; honest dol lars will make an honest dollar every time. I only want money that is a product of Nature. Now listen : NO CIVILIZED NATION, no barbarous nation, no tribe, how ever ignorant, ever used anything as money that man could make. They had always used for money a pro duction of Nature. Somo may say, "Have not some uncivilized tribes used beads for money, something that civilized people could make?" Yes; but a savage tribe could not make the beads. Tho savage tribes supposed them to be a product ei ther of Nature or of something else that they could not imitate. Noth ing has ever been considered money among any people on this globe that those people could mako. What is a greenback? The greenbacks aro a promise, not money. Great laughter aud applause. The green backs are the Nation's note, not money. You cannot make a flat dollar any more than you cau make a fiat stored You can make a prom ise, and that promise may be mado by such a splendid man that it will pas9 among all who know him as a dollar; but it is not a dollar. You might tts-well tell me that a bilUof fare is a dinner. Liughter.- The greenback is only good now because you can get gold for it. If you could not get gold for it it would not be worth any mote than a ticket I tor dinner attor the fellow who is sued the ticket had quit keeping the hotel. A dollar must bo made of something that Naturo has produc ed. When I die, if I have a dollar left, I want it to bo a good one. 1 do not want a dollar that will turn into ashes in the hand of widowhood or JLn the possession of orphan. Take a coin of the Roman Empire a little piece of gold and it is just as good to-day as though Julius Ciusar still stood at the head of the Roman le gions. I do not wish to (rust, the wealth of this Nation with the dem agogues of the Nation. I do not wish to trust the wealth of tho coun try to every blast of public opinion. I want money as solid as the earth on which wo tread, as bright as the stars that shine above us. (Ap plause.) Now, tjjen, we had 6uch good luck giveuur notes;. we had so much to eat.JPpdrlnk aud wear that some Greenback gentleman said: ''Why not keep it up? I WANT TO-DAY TO PAY A DEBT to the Greenback party.. I eudeavor to. do equal aud exact justice, aud I believe to-day that if it had not been for the Greenback party wo could not have resumed, and 1 will tell you why. The Greenbackors went into every school-house iu the Statu, except tho Southern States, -whore they would not allow them to speak, they wont onto every stump, and they told tho people "Tho greenback is tho best mouey tho world has ever seen." Ttiey talked anil they ar gued until millions of peoplo began to despise the look of eilver; they absolutely hated the color of gold ; they said that, after all the talk. "The greenback is tho mouoy of civilization." Finally, whou wo said "We will resume," the Green back party had gotten tho people in such a state ol mind, had got them so iu love for the greenback, that they did not ask lor gold. If thuy had asked for gold we would not have had enough. (Laughter aud applause.) So to-day I want to thank tho Greenback party for what they have done ; but allow me in this connection to say the day of your usefulness is past. (Loud ap plause.) Thousands of men upon our side gavo wrong di'liiiitions of money., and that helped to mislead thousands ot people. Tlioy said "money is a measure of value"; they said "money is a device to facilitato exchanges." Well, that Is calculated to mislead anybody. Tl e Greenbackera said, "If it is only a device to facilitate exchanges, why is not a paper device just as good as a gold device"? ("Good." Yc u could not answer it; nobody can auswor it. The trouble is that the first statement is untrue. Mouey is not "a dovico to facilitate exchang es," but the coining of money is a device to facilitate exchanges. Rec ollect the word, "coining." The onlju'easou that coining was neces sary was the Government had to toll how much there was, or else every man had to carry a pair of scales and bo a chemist. So tho coining of mouey is "a dovice to facilitnto ex changes," but the money itself is gold and silver, the product of Na ture herself. (Applause.) (To be continued.) Vnntocrutlc ToKtlmony. Tne Bourbon organ say-6 Gen. Garfield is a dishonest man. Here is some testimony from distinguish ed Democrats which may bo con sidered quite aa good as any asser tions by Bourbon organs: I am proud to call Garfield mv friend, aud I would not call any man my frlwnd whom I even sus pected of dishonesty. Hon. Henry B. Payne, of Ohio. No living Americnn, in my esti mation, stands higher for integrity and purity than James A. Garfield. Hon. Alien Q. Thurman of Ohio. "Garfield's honesty, and integrity are beyond question." Judge Jerry Black, of Pensylvania. "Garfield is one of the most sin cere, and honorable men I ever knew iu public life, and his record is without a flaw." Hon, Randolph I'uckcr, of Virginia. I will tell you whom I thiuk the Republicans should nominate, and whom I consider THEIR STRON GEST MAN OP PRINCIPLE, AN HONEST MAN, AND WOULD MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT FOR US ALL. Personally, I con sider him the BEST MAN you could nominate. I refer to Gen. James A. Garfield, of Ohio. Thomas A. Hendricks. I have been his devoted friend for many years, and I am resolved that I never will believo that ho does not deserve tho affection I have bes towed upon him. If he would carry the principles which regulate his private life into his public conduct, he would make the best chief Mag istrate we have ever had. Judge Jere Black. In the midst of the organized car nival of corruption which has been going on now so many weary months and years at Washington, it is really satisfactory to catch glimp ses now and then of honesty for honesty's sake, and without consid erations of party. Gen. Garfield, of Ohio, is a Republican of Republi cans, but it is his simple due, which we gladly pay him, to admit that he has done more than any other single member of his party, during the late session of Congress, to show that it is not impossible for a man to act with a Congressional majority and yet to keep his self-respect and the respect of honest meu. JYew York World, Democratic. Wade Hampton is not tho only South Carolinian whom Democrats ought to shut up. Mr. B. F. Perry, who was Provincial Governor of the Slate under Andrew Johnson, has written a letter to a citizen of that State, which is printed in the Green ville News.. The following is a fair specimen : "Every true Democrat aud every honorable man should rise up in tho mijesty of hi -j strength and swear on ;ha altar of his country aud God that ' this (Republican r-ncce-s) shall not be, let the consequences be what they will. The poor miserable un principled white man who tries to restore the Radical partv to power iu South Carolina, should be socially ostraeued, and not eveu spoken to on the streets. He should be treat ed as an enemy to his race. STATE BANK, 3u:::::rt t: Qsr;i:d ft 2ssi nd Tunir & Edit. COLUMBUS, NEBRASKA. CASH CAPITAL, - $50,000 DIRECTORS: Leander Gekrard, l'rcb'l. Geo. W.
