Tl. derisive epithets "granger," "mossback, "hayseed," etc., arc so frequently applie aud agricultural caricatures so often a| pear iu the comic papers of the duy tin men who ought to know better have in considerately come to believe thnt tin farmer is "a back number, and that "no body with brains or nnib tion is any longer a farmer.''

During tho war, David Daws, o! Brooklyn, N. Y., cleared |8,000,000 on inny contracts, taking his pay in green ?ncks which he exchanged for govern ncnt bonds at a large dipcount. 11< hen, with others of like interest, per unded our would bj statesmen that tl < iouor of th ." nation demands the pry ncnt of their bonds in gold. With a eal worthy of a better cause those sain tntemicn made haste to serve the inter, i t f the go'U bug aud Mr. Daws' bonds ?????? I t | appreciated to a gold stno lard. Daws 1 ! recently died lo.ving to his family $30, j ? ' 000,0 0. What statesmanship! What fores glit to to manipulate legislation as to produce such results! If this we e all i I we might admire the statesmanship t' at produced it, but let us draw.aaother picture, the result of this sain* legislation. J c Joseph Latta, of Iowa City, cleared $000 , from four jcais' service in the army, took s his pay in greenbacks and exchanged tln-m 0 in part payment, on cigh'y acres of land. 1 The greenbacks were then burned, silver 0 demonetized aud Latta'* indebtedness j increased in the same ratio with tho ap- , fircciation of Daws' bonds. Hud the ef- , <.ct of the injur tico to Latta stopped here, the burden might beendured with- j ?ut repining, hut tho inino legislation . that enhanced the value of Daws' bondi . ? increased the puicha ing power of the . f gol-1 that ho receives a? interest thereon* rtiis with tho diminished number of 1 1 greenbacks must measure tho value of ' ihc products of Lutta's farm. Thus when 1 he conns with the products of his 80 seres to exchange them for gold or greenF backs with which to pay the balanco on his Sands In funis that he is obliged to Increase the Quantity offered and take in exchn' gc a diminished number of d Iy tars, thus lessening his ability to meet his indebtedness.

All the armor is backed by wood and thick plates, which arc turned back by heavy channel bars. There are six powerful search lights arranged along the sides to locate the enemy at night and to guard against small boat attacks under cover of darkness. The complement of 12 boats and one balsa are stowed well above the Hash of the guns nnd are handled by means of powerful cranes. The launching will tack place from the Cramps' ship yarns. WISE WORDS.
