future of his race, and the real needs
of the people. V.'ould that he had

the workings of the convention have

Our county commissioners have
at last provided an armory for the
use of the Hem City Guards. The
drill of the company on the fourth
showed that the members of the or
ganization are in earnest each and
every one, and some day we will
have a model company out of the
excellent materials so hastily thrown
together. There is also a possibility
that wo shall soon have an artillery
company, and then Ave will be pre
pared to celebrate in a fitting man
ner the democratic victory in Xo

Ill the democratic national con

more weight than the dollar. The
laborer has conquered a continent,
and made our present position
among the powers of the earth pos

the country into two classes as
George and Most would do. The
The working dollar is as necessary
a factor in the growth of our pros

judicial department of our i,'overi:
ment, is a tyranny more ruinous
than that of the sovereign atrainst
, 1
which our fathers rt-bi I' I. The
"man with a barrel' who puts his
money into a political campaign as
the readiest mode of doubling it, is
tin4 dini-rer real and present to us to
day. A plutocracy lias always proved
the mo:-t pitiless and exacting of all
tyrants, because it has no pride of
race and is never satiated with spoil.
The danger is one anomalous to our
stage of developcmcnt. but it. grew
out of the disorders of civil war,
and its power is not pet annihilated
in our midst. The citizon must pro
tect his liberties from the attacks of
capital as well as against the danger,
so much dreaded of a standing army,
or we shall be unworthy of the des
tiny which we have been laboring
to fullfill.
The roots of the poisonous tree
which grows in Wall street, and is
called stock gambling, permeate our
whole system ami poison the finan
cial wells from which the thirst v
wayfarers in field and factory should
draw comfort and health. Hut each
man has the right to employ his
money as seems to him best, we sup
pose, and the great danger lies in
the fact that our people seem inclin
ed to make a God of the mammon of
unrighteousness by worshiping pecu
niary success. It is some comfort
to know that in a few years posterity
will scarcely remember the Goulds
and Vanderbilts who now till so
large a place in the popular admira
tion, but a combination, if possible,
among these nabobs can no.v dic
tate the choice of a president or
mould by easy manipulations the
judgments of our legislative bodies.
The party which de.-erves our
support must keep watch and ward
over the public interests, and stand
firm in advocacy of the rights of the
people. Only thus can the demo
cracy vindicate its claim to our sup-
-oorf; only tin as can it realize the

We said the Times-Union had
adopted an article of ours without
credit. It was shorn of the date
line and signature; with no other
change it was called ''Checkmate

an original editorial. The Times

offers to reprint the evidence. We
have in our possession the original
of the following letter, and submit
the question without further argu

Dear Sir: Not only is your article ac

I propose using it as an editorial, and
thereby robbing you of the credit of it.

fore in its history more widely read ami
quoted, more heartily commended, and more
tiercely ci itici.eil, with a more complete or
ganization, urn! an nble ssotf of contributors
and with the same independence ami fearless
ness that has made it successful and powerful
in the past.
Thk Ti.mks has no parfv to follow, no candi
dates to advance, but w ill meet every issue, uh
it has ever (lone, with consistent dev otion to
the riiriit. to honest government, and the pub

tion as t he leading journal of Philadelphia, it
will aim to be continually in the iidvuucJ in all
that can add value to a newspaper.
The value of a newspaiier is not in its size or
display, but in the iritellitrence ami care, the
conciseness and freshness with which it is
edited. Thk Times f-pends lavi-hly for news
from all parts of the world, but h 11 its dis
patches are carefully edited ami condensed, in
