Grant's longest speech was made at
IV- Moines, lowa, one day last week
it would oceupy about half a eolumn in I
the Reporter. He had it in writing and
made a pretty fair stagger in reading it
off. The speech was passable and doe.-
credit to the man who wrote it for tin
s President. His hobby was the dreadful
Catholics which is a bid for a third-term
nomination. We print tbe speech in
column.
1 {Wring tailed to find any thing against
P. A AM. laser, our nominee for Treasur
er, thfc Republican plays against him on
one siring, and that is because Mr. Mus
ter :$ a miller. The ltepublicau asks
"whither any one ever heard of an hon
eat piiler." With one sweep of the pen
thqt Republican pronounces all millers
rascals. Now that is a left-handed coni
onment to the numerous resectable
iiiillers of this county which they should
/not forget at the polls in November. We
/ answer, yes, there are honest millers in
this county, and among the foremost ot
them stands Daniel A. Musser, whom
the Republican is endeavoring to bring
iuto disc redit without the dot of an i to
found its insinuations upon. If ever a
miller sent out an honest grist, it wa-
Mr. Musser, and we dare say that if the
Republican editors were running a grist
mill instead of a falsehood mill, they
would half the time be found cabbaging
flour, bran, chop and all, and leave the
wives and little ones oftheir customers to
starve for the want of bread. "Not a:;
honest miller in the land" exclaims the
Republican." Had that sheet substitu
ted "radical office holder" for the word
"miller," it would have hit the nail on
the head—driven the ball right in the
bull's eye, but to denounce Mr. Musser
as a "dishonest miller," and to add a
slander upon all the millers in tho coun
try, by a declaration that there are IK
honest millers, is just about such logic
as one would look for from a person wb
: arely knows the difference between a
locomotive and a bull-frog, and who
would contend tbat ten and seven make
eleven. Bat these republican organ
grinders must say something—they want
to write—hence they may just as well
say and write that P. A. Musser is <lis
honest because he is a miller, and tbat
there are no honest millers living, as t<
put out any of the other nonsense their
heads are staffed with.
Glenn, the man who Wants to bt t
Munson for iiberiff, is already booking
himself in some of the duties that fall t..
that officer. He is making inquiry
about the size of rope used for hanging
and makes drawings of scaffolds on
slates. About the first week in No
vember Glenny will find himself eus
pended so high and dry that he won't
know whether apple butter is used for
greasing watches or tar for spreading his
half baked dough. If the criminals of
this county don't get hung until Glenn
bangs them, then long life is in prw
pect for them, and they are safe in call
ing out the fiddler. Let Glenn innke
his will, and throw away the thought of
hanging any body, for bis time is short,
the 2nd of November is fast approach
ing when he will be found dangling on
the ragged edge of 1,000 minority.
The engineer follows the soldier in

plans of the Czar. The one conquers,
the other attaches the land appropria

trade and commercial character. At the

important bearing have either been com
menced or are under contemplation.
Khiva is to be brought within easj
reach of the Caspian sea by a canal, and
a railroad is to be made across the des
ert which separates the sea of Aral from
that of the Caspian. The Oxus andJax
artes rivers are also to be rendered nav
igable by vessels to the furthermost pos
sible points, and thus Russia will be abb
to transjjort troops from the shores of
the Caspian sea to the heart of Central
Asia in a short time. These movements,
of an expensive and permanent charac
ter, all the beet proofs that can be offer
ed of the earnestness of the effects now
making by Russia to annex the whole of
Central Asia to that already vast em
pire.
Judge Pershing did not seek the nom
ination for governor; it was tendered
him on account of his worth. He never
was an office seeker, and is the true
friend of the masses.
The Williamsport Sun aptly says, that
though "it may be claimed for Hart ran ft
that he fought against traitors, yet Per
shing's whole public life has been a bat
tle against thieves, and as the State is in
more danger just now from thieves than
it is from traitors there is need of au
honest stateman at H arris bmg ratln r
than a soldier who is weak in the cabi- 1

The expeti-i s of your State govern

revenues of your great State. A svsten

your treasury at the I XJ-L-C of y :;r in
dustrial corporations, oris soim|sc->!
to be wrung ultimately from the people.
Taxes upon real estate have been rej:.l
ed to give the excuse for the change of
your loans from a five to a six per cent,
to the end tbat a full treasury might 1h
at band to make earnings for pcr-or. .1
gain and political purposes,ami the peo
ple were made to pay thereby, sines
1867, more than two millions of dollars
by this act alone.
This subject is one that is worthy Ihi
consideration of the gentleman who
opened tbe campaign at Reading, and
its results are upon us yet and daily af
fect the finances of the State, it i j-c rli
nent to inquire how it was done'.' what
has been done and why it was done?
The act of Febuary 2.1867, originated in
the treasury. Its speciou- pretext Wie
the lifting of our overdue debt and fund
ing it so as to meet it at maturity. It
increased the interest ujsmtwenty-three
millions of the (state debt fr..ni five to
six per cent. i?ee its first effect ujm
the taxpayers:
On December 1, If*36, the
debt was 135,622,052
On this we paid an annual in
terest of 1,807,136 ,
On December 1, 180", the
whole debt was 34,7(56,431
On this we paid an annual in
terest of $ 2,257,033 '
So that after paying |Sss,f>2l of the !
public debt, we were required to pay '
449,897 more interest than we did the
year before. For the seven years that '
liave passed from December, ]Hf,7, to
December, 1874, one per cent, upon the j
whole twenty-three millions has been
annually paid by the people ; 230,000 per
year for seven years make* an aggregate
of 1,610,000; add to thin the coat of plat
ing the loan 89,000; interest paid in IM.;
more than in 1860, $410,897; total wet vl
new loan to the people 1, 1874, f 2,149,003
What was the ulterior purpose of this
change ofh.an ? It was to in -reuse the
balance in the Treasury, it was to (ill up
the vaults for use by those who controll
ed the finances.
See its result. By the report of the
State Treasurer for 18t;7 we find that ht
had in his hands an average month!}
balance of $3,.>82,214. By the same re
port for 1868 the average monthly bal
ance is shown to be $2,309,000. Tlu se arc
grand totals, glorious picking for skillful
financiers, rich placers for political ti
The glorification over the reduction in
the total of the debt prompts me to give
it a glance in passing. It is to be re
membered that the sinking fund policy
and its results he-long to the Democracy
for they originated it and without their
active- aid its efforts would have been ut
terly destroyed. Official records fully
prove this fact. From 1860 to 1871, in
clusive, the treusury has received from
the people the sunt of sß(i,'J23,&y&

How forcibly doe* this question pre

fearfully depressed. She is rich in herf

dloiviince to lahor, hut causes have atui
en which h\e retarded the march of
tici prosperity. Wh.*l Im-produced this
is nut the suhji el of inquiry now, but
such is umfeutably the fuel.
1 liecoimtr) has now,uud litis had for,
the last twelve year-, a pajx-r currency,
irredeemable iu gold and silver. This
lias been adopted a* the hasis of values. |
Tile system was not the offspring of I
I*VlMHrtilie legislation. It is claimed
hy ill. -c who lutrmluced it, M olle ol the
in . u!ii - .iUM d by the lxelwllion.
It.) hi t r wrong, the country accejitcil it,
ai '.-nice the close of the wur, to the

( However much wo may com plain of
thewuntof wisdom that prompted the
introduction of the present system, there
i can bo no doubt of the folly of ulleuipl
, ir.g now to destroy it. Whatever evils
belong to it have already been realired ;
tiie business of a whole decade aud
' more has been bused u|srn it, and only
those who desire to speculate upon a
breaking up of all values, whether of la
bor or of property, are now nd* orating a
contraction of the currency, and it may
not be inappropriate to add here, that in
, nothing has the confidence of the people
, in their government been ao strikingly
illustrated as iu the universal acceptance
and use of the money issued by it, not
w it listamhng the bad uiaiiagciuent of the
administration.
We claim that the Democratic party
has always Iwcn uud is now in favor ofn
( sound aud stable currency, and we have
uniformly opfxised the mercenary intiu

Coni)>oeed as the Democratic party t*. In
r large part, of the labor of the nation, it
is essential to its U-xt interest* that alt
ncedleaa duct nations of the currency
should be avoided, and it i* entirely safe

hands lie > the only IIOJK- of reaching the
apecic standard as the basis of our cur
rency. It is no part of its mission or it.-
d< -tinv to altandon this idea. It will
not. Itut the same party must lie gov
■ erned by reason as to the time, the mode
aud manner in which the point is to be
reuched. It cannot afford, even if it had
the p- trer, to march on to the objective
point over a desolate untry ar.d amidst
the ruin of its industries. It doc* r.ot
propose to roniuut any such folly ; and,
therefore, w hen in council at Krie, the
party determined to put itself in u con
serv.dive position and act with deliber
ation and discretion when they passed a
resolve—"demanding that the volume of
money be made and kept equal to the
wants of trade, leaving the restoration of
legal tenders to par ingold to be brought
alkiut by promoting the industriesof Un
people and not destroying them"—they
bat evinced sound judgment, and made
no sacrifice of principle.
The effect of this is to make one com
mon currency, save where Congress has
made |>ecial provision* to the contrary,
in the national loan. There is no inlla
tion in this part of the Erie platform ; it
is but supplying the people with the
amount of currency withdrawn hy the
National Ix-gisl.iturc from circulation.
The. |<eople of this Mate cannot be
forced into submission to a strictly com
mercial rule in their business affairs.
Commerce clamor* for free trade. The
jicople engaged in commerce carry on a
traffic with all nations. Tbey obtain
and receive large profit*. They can well
afford to pay the difference in exchange.
Our mines, manufactories and agricul
ture want and can only prosper under
protective revenue laws. Pennsylvania
has always luen a protective State and
is so now, and she cannot dispense with
this feature but with serious loss.
The commercial interests of Pennsylva
nia in common with the interest of the
Western States, are identical in this par
ticular. and their common deatiny lies
in the same channel. With the excep
tion of Philadelphia, and which may l*
classed more as a manufacturing city,
with a limited commercial marine, they
have no ships upon the sea. Their trade
ami barter is at home. Their profits are
comparatively small, and thrv are not in
condition to uiect sudden convulsions in
the contraction of currency. The West
ern Mutes hare realired this state of af
fairs, and they have boldly assumed a
position in which the Democratic par- 1
ty of this Slate has sustained them.
Thr platform adopted ut Erie takes the
position that hunker* ami brokers may
not have the control of the currency,
that the industries of the .State and the
groat question of labor have, as they
should have, a voice in the currency
question, and we fearlessly maintain that
this is correct. The men who represent
these interests are entitled to a voice in
the common council of the State. To
their efforts wc owe its prosperity, and
their advice is not to he discarded.
The coal and iron trade to-day in this
State is prostrate ;it is paralyzed. Tons
of thousands of men who arc employed
in these industries will he discharged if
the doctrine of immediate resumption is
successful; nor will they he in a much 1
lietter condition if the currency as con- s
'ractcd bv government, with u view of <
ixingadav for resumption, is maintain- <
