Hogg sends McMaster $6 for subscriptions to the Freeman's Journal. Tinkering with the finances and other legislation has produced hard conditions. The government has tripled the war debt by buying government bonds for 30¢ on the dollar, for which they have received 6 and 7 per cent interest in gold. Now, when they are crying about demonitzation of silver; they are also worrying about the destruction of the government. The people are more concerned about the bondholders and money sharks, lest they bring the whole fabric down around their heads. Let them look to the West. Pendleton is coming, and more will follow him and it will be the same in the East. Due to these conditions, Hogg is forced to discontinue his subscription. :: I-2-c A.L.S. 3pp. 16 to
