OREGON: TUESDAY .SEPTEMBER 13. 1SS5 EX-PUESIDENT HAYES. round regarding ex-President Hays, Theke is a good deal of cheap "Wit and strained funniness going liis poultry, his Omaha property, etc. The fact of his existence is made to appear as an excellent joke. Just where all.this exquisite humor comes in is dimly discernible. It is lime that the dignity of the people assert ed itself. E. 33. Hayes was declared elected president in February, 1877. He came to the presidency at a mo ment when there existed great dis satisfaction with many things that had been going on. The fact of his election has sometimes been derided, but so securely did he sit in the pres idential chair that the able lawyers in a Democratic house of representa tives did not think it worth while to attempt to oust him. As a matter of fact, he hold office by a firmer tenure than any man who preceded or fol lowed. And the best of it all is he made an excellent president. He called round him men of eminence and character for his counselers: such men as Evarts, Sherman, and Devens: and not onlv was his administration above reproach, but the atmosphere was such that many prominent gentlemen of the country never felt at homo in any department of it President Hayes' government was respected at home and abroad; and when it came time to elect his successor, the common argument, and the most effective one for Garfield, was that the country was doing so well there was no occa sion for a change of parties. Ho brought pacification to the south; and that section of the country has been at its best ever since not the best possible, but the best yet. Hi record is scrupulously clean and un assailable to this day, which is a great thing to say of a public man Amid all these jokes and gibes about the ex-president's hens, his farm, etc., it is no harm to keep in sight the fact that Hayes was v. gallant Union gen oral; that he served his country, that he made an upright chief magistrate and that ho preserved his personal integrity. All these things are good to remember. The qualities that Hayes possessed are not So very com man as to be ignored. Perhaps were they more general the country would not be the loser by it. THE DIVINE HIGIIT OF GOLD. TJndek the caption of "Wild the ories," tho American Grocer says: "The demand for unlimited silver or nulimited greenbacks is abont as silly as to urge that the government should give each man a farm. Farms are to be had for every man who is willing to labor and save the money to buy one, and dollars are to be had by those who are willing to work for them." This is the most extreme argument we have yet heard in favor of gold; to put silver on a par with greenbacks as to intrinsic values. We hardly expected this from a journal whose interests lie with dealers in food. Our contemporary must be aware that to make gold the only basis of value is to at once and greatly in crease its value, to the depreciation of the price of all stocks on hand. It is thus legislating to benefit the hold ers of gold at the expense of hold ers of food. There has been too much of this done already; since first the leeches got hold on the broad back of Uncle Sam during the war days. There is not a dollar of the national debt but has been paid twice over with legal interest, on account of this promising to pay gold, and it is time this never ceasing robbery of the people came to an end. Wo do not desire to see repudiation of any debt but our sense of justice is to pay a debt in value received with interest corresponding. The gold speculators, otherwise money changers, who exacted and accepted gold dollars in lieu of paper dollars loaned, are not ono whit less a set ol robbers than are the repudiationists. We may say the people accepted the offer and the exchange was made ac cording to law; but what if repudia tion is dono by law, by the will of the people, would that make it right? If gold had never been recognized as money in this country we would have had our war debt paid off long ago, we would never have had the do pressed business time3 since 1873 and wewonldnotbe carrying a load of bonded indebtedness that has created an aristocracy amongst ns which grows daily more exclusive and less republican. Tho government has no right to legislate in favor of any special commodity, and gold is a commodity of changing value, and to demonetize silver would be to again rob every person in tho country who has no gold and to give the proceeds of the robbery to those who have the gold. Ir there is anything more genuine ly funny, more truly humorous, than tho grieved comment of tho eastern mugwump papers on the outspoken utterances of their honest southern contemporaries and late allies, it has not appeared up to the hour of going to press. The sight of one of the aids and accomplices holding up its hands in virtuous horror at the sight of the division of the swag, would arouse the risibilities of Diogenes. 'Abe women handsomer now than one hundred years ago?'' is the pres ent question discussed in Boston. Were the debate to extend to Oregon, gallantry no less than truth demands that we all take the affirmative. The light from a star which sprang into luminous existence perchance a million years ago, has just reached the earth and awakened considerable interest among astronomers. NEW TO-DAY.
