The Ohio Democracy, inflationists,
under the lead of Governor Allen, bave
no real love for the greenback. Tbe
motive tbat lies at tbe bottom of tbeir
action on the currency question, and
prompts them to insist so lustily for
an overwhelming issue of paper money,
is the desire to bave such a quantity
thrust on the country that the confi
dence of tbe people in its redemption
will be entirely broken up, and thus
the way for repudiation will be made
eas. It is repudiation tbat tbey de
sire. If they can bring about a pros
tration of tbe couutry such at would
follow a repudiation of the currency, a
general breaking up of all tbat has
been done by the Republican party,
when it was compelled to grapple with
Rebellion, to save the life of tbe Re
public, woc'.d follw, and the old order
of thiugs that existed before the Re
bellion would coice in quite naturally.
Give us repudiation, is their argument ;
tbat will be followed by a business
prostration that will bankrupt tbe na
tion, and cause such a discontent among
the peopie, that amdst the confusion,
they will restore the old order of things.
That is the caid tbey play on.
