Legal Tender.

Seven out of every ten men in the country honestly believe that an issue of full legal tender money issued by the government and paid out for expenses instead of collecting revenue until we have a reasonable amount to do business with, would be for the interest and welfare of the whole country. But a few wealthy men who call themselves financiers say this will not do, because it would interfere with their interests, and our rulers stand by the few and let the many suffer.—Lamar (Mo.) Industrial Union.

—The Episcopal Address, signed by all the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church, presented to the general conference of that body in the city of Omaha in May of last year, declares: “The rapid accumulation of enormous wealth in the hands of a few successful speculators; the tendency to concentrate in a limited class of not always the most worthy, the grinding and soulless arrogance of monopolies, working impoverishment to the masses and extreme inequalities among the people without respect of merit, and are not only producing dangerous and wide spread discontent, hut are exciting hatred and arousing tendencies which will be more and more difficult to repress, and which if not arrested will breed riot and revolution. There is danger to the social and civil fabric.” —ls there is anything that wiH tire the immortal soul out of a man, it is to hear the democratic papers abuse John Sherman for demonetizing silver, when the democratic house in the last congress with 148 majority indorsed it, and if it had not been for the people’s party men would have made it worse than Sherman did. —Lamar (Mo.)
