The better sense and cooler judgment of the country objects to that style of campaigning at . this late day, and Rnmfi of the Rharn reDrimands , ad ministered to these bloody shirt gentle men have come from Republican and Independent journals in the North. The following extract from an edi torial in .the American, Waterbury, Conn., Ind. Rsp., we reproduce as an illustration of the little stock that is taken in this sectional warefare by reasonable people on the other side of the line: Judge Foraker broadens the plat form of Senator Sherman a little in his opening speech of the Ohio cam " paign, though still giving the section : al question what seems to us ill ad vis ed prominence. He compares the histories of the two parties, which is surely to the ad vantage of his own side if the people were not looking to the future instead of the past, and, at a time when .dividing issues are scarce, were not choosing between men rather, than between parties. He says the Democratic party was turned out of power in 1860 under -condemnation while the Republicans were turned out in 1884 with the uns j .qualified approbation of the country. This is truer than it - looks on, first reading The country 4would almost j certainly '. have continued to trust the Republican party had its candi date represented the intelligence, the honesty and the y. conscience which, has made, the party powerful and honorable during a quarter of a cen tury ot power. "When the party surrendered itself to its smart, scheming and dishonest men the country took power away from it. It can only recover that power by re pentence and reform,; or, as usual, by the mistakes of its opponents. The tone of Judge Foraker's canvass will be some indication of the meas ure of profit the . party has gained from defeat.' This is evidently written by a man who has no particular partiality for the Democratic party, but ' who has . sagacity enough to understand why the Republican party was ousted tronr power, and candor enough to say; it. Had the Republican pa4y . been actuated by a broad, liberal pol icy, had it tried to be a national party in fact, and ,not simply a sectional . party; had- it proved true to the trusts reposed in itby the people,and been honestly run instead of becoming a huge swind- . ling machine, it could have held the government of this country for an indefinite period. At one time by a liberal,1 wise policy it could have gained a footing in the"" Southt and -galled into its fold many men of 'in-; fluence and intelligence, but its lead ers threw away their opportunity and turned the party over to the . very worst elements in the South, and made its name the synonym of infamy. In - reviving the sectional issue Sherman and Foraker are revi ving one of the things that killed the party and cannot bring it to life 'mow. THE COLLECTOR'S .OFFICE JT. Molt HXatter in of Statement of Dr. 7, Keferenee to the Rent. Tothe Editor of Ths Observes, : Statksville, Sept. 4, 1885. I am informed, for I have not been able to get hold -of the issue contain ing it, that you allege in your paper that I am renting the present collec tor of Internal ; Revenue for $25 a month the same house that I charged the Government $50 a month -for while the Republicans held the of-' nee. . " Now, in justice to myself, I desire to state m .your paper the truth of this matter. I called - on Collector Dowd soon- after he occupied - my building, and told him that I had been informed by my partner, Mr. Drake: that he had, in my . absence, rented the building to the Govern ment for that month "for $25, and that I had come to protest against it: inai ine jDuuamg ' was worm sou a month, and I would, take no less. The Collector said I was bound-by the bargain made by my partner, &c. I then intimated to Maj. Dowd that I would be glad if he would vacate the building, and spoke to him of several buildings in town that belonged to Democrats that I thought were suit ed for the office, and that I thought that he could get them, and that I thought some Democrat ought to have the rents. He objected to these buildings, but when I again as&ed him to vacate, said that he would make some temporary arrangements for a building which started some talk about the removal of the office from Statesville. v. - I then told him my house was worth $50 per month, that the office occupied nearly all the space on the second floor above two large stores ; that it had been fitted up at large ex pense to suit the purpose for which it was used, at the instance of the Uov srnment itself, and under its instruc tions, and that the office ought not to be removed from Statesville:" that he convenience of the taxpayers res quired it to be kept w here, and that rather than the want of a suitable building should be used as an excuse or removing the office from States ville, he might remain in my build ing and have my half of it for noth ing, and I called ; Col. Chapman to witness this proposition on -my part. 1 have ever since adhered to this proposition, and am still adhering to it, and this is why the Government is getting my building at $25 a month. hold that it is worth $o0 a tmontb. and so told the Collector again a few days ago, and that I ought to - have that much, and said I would apply to the Government for it, but appre hended that the price asked might bs used as an excuse for removing the office to Charlotte, to the ' great injury and inconvenience of the, tax payers of the district, three fourths of whom live North of this point of latitude, and are engaged in business which constitutes the principal money interests or this section, x yielded my just rights for their ben efit.

Gilead, Ohio in which so much : fault was found with Mr. Cleveland for appointing ex-Confederates to office, the corre spondent of the St. Louis Republican says: A list of the ex-Confederates appointed .by i Republican presidents accorded the ravor or Sherman's vote when before the Senate for confirma tion would fill two or three columns. Some of the names are worth recall ing, however, as for instance, Wil liam P. Canaday, whom Sherman helped to make - sergeant at arms of the Senate.

September 4 After the question of the Civil Service the subject of silver will be the engros sing one of the next session ef Con gress Indeed, it may not prove of subordinate interest to the matter ; of the offices. I find a number of peo pie who are disposed to discuss the course of finance as pursued by the Administration. ' No definite drift to the gold standard is perceptible ; in the Treasury. But Mr. v Manning is known to nympathize more with the "gold bugs" tha with the silr? i tesv The present policy . of paying oat suver coin is , looked at askance by some of the silver advocates. Ctie said to me yesterday : "It means that the Administration is endeavor ing to disgust the public by a rush of the heavy silver dollars. The move ment is not honestly, conceived. In the end it is hoped to beat silver- back. This opinion, is- not shared by all the sil verites. . The best judgment in- pohtices is probably that the Administration will be prepared to act with the mod erate silver element in the South and West, and that no straightout split in the party on this question is possi ble. Accommodation is the word. It seems certain that the v continued issue of tw millions a mooth of the standard silver dollar is no practica- ole. Hx reason of the discrimination against silver by Republsean Con gresses and Administrations silver is depreciated to a val'ie of 83 cents. The.fact i what it is, no matter how it became so. Thef thing to do is to rehabilitate silver. How is4his to be done? By further issues? Already there is apparently. more siSver than is wanted in. circulation that is. more of the 83 cent dollars. No. What the; wisest among the silver or double-staadard old "fashioned Dem ocrats desire in the raising of the value of the silver dollar. The ques tion is. on what basis how much by what process of ; appreciation? i There ought to be in the 49sfch Con gress and the Administration, of Mr. i Cleveland wisdom to; suffice for the requirements of the occasion! It is thought that the President will be prepared to meet the silver caen half way and that many of them will agree to a compromise on the basis of a fair double standard with, as a necessary consequence, the discon tinuance of the provisions of the. Bland act for the issue of two mil lions of silver dollars monthly. The four hundred twelve anl a half grain dollar is not wanted.. It must go, and we must have a silver dollar of a near: er the present valiie of gold in the markets of the gold. Wall street may have won," but not wholly. Men; it is said, must not be governed by prejudice, however, honest, but, by righs reason and the 'law H)frp resent and future advantage. Mr.' Daniel R. Gxdloe, who-makes a careful study of the monthly, re ports of the Treasury and it opera tions elsewhere ascertained, is posi tive in his statement that notwith standing publictions to the contrary, the government as not for- some time been paying off a dollar of the debt. It buys no bonds. It hoards its specie," for the most part. Mr. Goodloe is a zealous friend of the Ad ministration. . ; - y POINTS Senator Ransom is daily expected from Blowing Rock.
