Jossre WARREN KEIFER, the Speaker
of the House, was born in Ohio in 1836.
After: a common school education he
studied law, and began its practice in
1858. In April, 1861, he entered the
Union army and was commissioned a
major: He was pi °meted suwessively - to
be lieutenant-Colonel, colonel, • brevet
brigadier-general, brigadier-general, and
brevet major-general. lie was a gallant
soldier, and distinguished himself in the
battle of the! Wilderness, at Opequan;
Fisher's Hill and Cedar Creek, and Was
four times wounded. After the war he
resumed the practice of law at Spring
field, 0. He was a deleate-at-large to
the Republican- "National Convention of
1876. He was a Representative in the
Forty-fifth and forty-sixth Congresses,
and was re-elected to the Forty-seventh
by a majority of 6,918.
EACH month for some months 'pai.t the
reduction of thii public debt has bten so
remarkably large that the figures repre
senting the liquidation accomplished dur
ing the month,of.,November seem small
by comparisiiii. An that time we only
paid off " about seven and a' quarter mil
lions of the national indebtccineris,. or at
the rate of something lilCe one-quarter
for each ',working . day. .To be
sure, this is doing pretty well. There is
not another nation in the world Which is
in a position to accomplish anything like
it. •
Owiso to the fact that the -provisions
of law prohibiting the manufacture and
sale orintoxicating liquor are continually
violated !in various cities of the State of
Kansas, Governor 'Sr. Jo; .N has issued a
proclamation offering rewards for the
arrest. and conviction of any person guilty
of manufacturing or Felling intoxicating
liquor 'in .violationl of law to said cities
also of any policeman, city. marshal,
sheriff, county attorney, or other offier
for failure to perform the duties imposed
Upon him by the provisions of said-law.
REPRESENTATIVE POMEROY'S paper,

strongly in favor of General _ JAMES A.
By:NyEn, for governor. Our contempor
ary says : The nomination-of General
BENVF,3I for governor will more nearly .
reileckhe popular will than any other
name that could be 'suggested. In him
all the eliments of• popularity are cen.

THE PRESIDENT'S RECOMMENDA.
TIIIINS.
Two of the recommendations of
the annual message ought to engage
the' early - attention of Congress.
The retirement of the silv . e't
certifi
cates is demanded by the .essential
interests of business.'
. Their issue
was a Mistake, and directly Ali con
flict with the declared policy of the
Republican party as respects nation
al finance, The party had, in Con
gress and in all of prominent Con
ventions, Persistently declared that
any increase -- of the volomie of
treasury notet would .he impolitic
and unwise: Nothing was better
established in the financial policy of
the party than its opposition to any
inflation of the currency volume. It
- bad declared it unlawful for the
Secretary of the Treiisury to increase
the currency vi,lume beyond, the
maximum allowed by the several
acts of Congress. It was in view of
this declared policy that President
HAYES vetoed the silver bill in 1 N 7.5.
But Congress saw fit to Iguit: it over
the - veto, with all blunders and
its manifest
. jobbery on the part of
lonanzamen
Upward of one hundred millions
of silver dollars have been coined
on government account, seventy mil
lions - of which have been deposited
in the treasury and certificates taken
therefor by depositors. This is an
inflation of the currency to the,
estent .of every dollar 'repre
sented by silVey . certificates out
standing. V lt is a duplication of
seventy millions, one variety' of
which is locked up and unavailable
for any purpose' save -that of re-
demption of the other half. FM
the business of the country demand
ed thi s ' extra volume of seventy
milliOns the case would be quite .
different, But the legitimatd busi
ness of the country demanded noth- .
ing of the sort. The business of
bullion dealers and kiteflycrs gener
11y:did
.dernand . this contravention
of the laws of trade, and an ignorant,
and to lomc extent, an interested
Congress, acceded to the demand.
The lesult of 'this easy compliance
with the wishes of speculators- is a
practical increase - of the currency,
volume as we have _ stated.: We
might just as well haVe issued seven
ty millions additional greenbacks
something entirely contrary to, law,
and widely at variance with sound
policy. The government cannot use
a dollar that stands • pledged for
these certificates, but has; to enlarge
.its vaults and lock up this .vast
amount of coin until certificates' are
presented. This state .of •_affairs
'ought not to endure a day longer
than is necessary to proyidefor he
retirement of t.lle"certilicates and the'
consequent reduction of the liabili
ties of the, treasury'in so much.
How can this be done? The coin
age-Jaw now requires the issue of
not less than .4'2,000,000 in' silver
dollars each month. Were this
provision of the law . repealed, leav
ing the:is:3 . lle , tofollow the active and
actual demand for silver dollatscat
the • discretion of the Secretary, the
holders of silver certificates would
he compelled tcl- present them at the
treasury :counter for redemption.
For in no other way could' the de
mand for the coin b'e supplied. This
would go - on until every certificate
should . I lie,,tiecleemed, and the' coin
would tteii be performing its pro Per
function us a; medifim of small ex
changes. Hence the Secretary con;
pies the recommendation for , the
retirement of the :certificates ,with
another-to 'suspend the .coinage of
silver dollara for the present. This
recognition of that law of trade
which bases the supply upon the
&nand—a law which the act of
Congress stupidly ignores, and over
rides to the detriment of legitimate
business oper Vita. The great and
growing rage of Speculation is wholly
due to the inflation of ;the currency
volume, and if- any choose to study
the tendency of eve.nts prior to the
collapse of 1873 in connection with
what is going on before our eyes at
this time, they will: understand what
we mean. We are pressing forward
toward another crisis in business,
not as rapidly as then but not the
less surely. There is time to ward
off the blow, and the President's
recommendation is intended to
stimulate Congress to rise to the
level of the occasion. We shall see
whether it is wise enough anffilionest
enough to int6rpose positWe l'aw be
tween the legitimate business of the,
county and kiteflyers. Meantime
the press must speak out and wit
ness for the people what the people,
want. They do not want another
pinch in finance.

THE GUITEAU TRIAL
W ED N ESD A
At the opening of the Guiteau
trial Wednesday, the', assassin stated
that he was "not satisfied with the
situation as developed,"-and
expressed dissatisfaction because the
defence hail not been permitted to .
call President Arthur, General Grant
anit Messrs. Conkling and ,
"wlio 'were so down upon Garfield
that.they would not speak to him o'n,
the street." Mr. Scoville stated that'
he had received, no replies •to •the.
. written interrogatories sent to Presi
dent Arthur.. The prosecution, in,
rebuttal,- called . a number of the'
prominent citizens of Freeport-, 111.,
who testified to their , intima c -ac
quaintanceship with - the assassin's
father, and declared their belief in
his perfect sanity, which they never
-heard questioned until after July
_2
last. General Sherman was on the
witness' stand for: a few_ moments.
The assassin: took - mcasion
-
press his approval ofthe President's
message.
TEL
Witnesses were examined in the
Guiteau case Thursday ,who testified
to an intimate acquaintanceship with
Mrs. Maynard, sister of !the assassin's
father, whose sanity had been more
.than, questioned by thetdefence. The
witnesses were positive that - no trace
of 'insanity had, ever been 'discovered
in MrS. Maynao.,., , Testimony. - was'
also given to the eilect : .that the. girl
Abby Maynard, if afflicted at all by
hereditary taint of insanity, did not
inherit from her mother. President
,A.rthur's replies t(3' Mr. Seoville's
written interro(YatorieA were read in
court. The substance of his' replies
was that he had only casually spoken'
' with the assassin, that Guitean had
not ren:lered the Republican party
any service in the Presidential cam
paign, and' that he had never riven -
Guiteau any reason to suppose that
he had personal or political intluenee
with the writer. The Re'. W. Mac-
Arthur, of New York, testified to
Guiteates depraVed conduct , while a
member of his congregation;
. . .
On Friday the Rev. Dr. Mac-
Arthur testified that he never saw in
th 6 assassin ;any indications of an
unsoiind mind. Dr. Caldwell, of
Freeport, 111., the physician of
Guiteau's father, testified that he
never. noticed in him. any indications*
of unsoundne'ss of mind.. A large
number of witnoSse's gave testimony
showing 'that the assassin was an
accomplished
_sWindler and that no.
suspicii,n of hi S sanity bad ever
come to them. 'there were put in
evidence applthations made . .to the
Mutual Life InsUranee COmpany - by
.Luther .W. G uiteau and his sons;
- John W. and Charles .1.. for life in
surance pblicies, in which_ the state
.tuent was made that there was no
insanity in the family.. D. McLean
Shaw, an -attorney from New Yolk,
testified that in a-c nvcirsation with 4
him some years ago Guitean sad be
was hound to become notorious be-,
fore he died ; that he would get
notoriety for evil if he could not gets
it for' good ; bewould . imitate
Wilkes Booth and "shoot sonic. f
our big' men." Senator Benjamin
Harri Son, of
_lndiana, was one of the
witnesses.
On Monday .E. C. Spitzka, of
New York, a believer in moral insan
ity, testified to his conviction of the
assassin's insanity. This - conviction,
he said was formed before he had
ever seen the . prisoner and was
strengthened by an examination - of
the assasin ill his-cell. He said that he
tound in G nitean a tendency to the for
mation of delusive opinions and MON
bid projects and a marked element of
imbecility of judgement; • that Guitesu
was a moral monstrosity, congen=
ital monstrosity, a cripple in respect
of iris moral sense. Ile found no
fixed delusion, n illusion and :no
I hallucination. - I.W was cross-examin
ed at length. The Court. permitted
Guitetu to insult ;the District-Attor
ney mid the crowd laughed at the in
sults. A person who was not dis
covered cli.used some commotion by
crying oRt, "Shoot him now," "re
ferying to the assasin.
