M’KINLEY HAYS IT. President McKinley has conferred a favor un the country by puts ting in concise and uumistakeable so m the principle back of all the official rascality in the United States, and which is now adopted by the republican party as its guiding principle. This is its phrase:

Nothing should ever tempt ns—not' ingever will tempt us. .toscale down the sacred debt of the nation thro’ a legal technicality. Whatever may be the language of the contract the United States will discharge all of its obligations in the currencygrec gnized as the best throughout the civilized world at the tim of payment. What is the “sacred debt” of the nation ? If any debt was more sacred than another we sho’d suppose it was the debt to tne volunteers who shouldered their gans and went out to save the country.

But they were not saving the country for themselves and posterity. They were saving it f r the bondholders and contractors,and franchise grabbers and in order that these beneficiaries might get t ie fruitage this pri ciple ha 3 been introduced that ‘What ever may ba the language of the contract’ we will give the claimant agaiu t the government the dearest money we can. And this is only o e phase of the princ : p>, which is fully exposed in the words, “Whatever may be the language of the contract, we will give the pub lie the short end of it*” We ask the special thought of the reader to tnis mattei, for this pri cipie announced by Mr. McKinley with so much impressment, .with that grand air of ‘Howgmuch is the national debt? I’ll give my check
