It nukes no difference what our in

whether to the prohibitory features of
the tariff or over-production, so long as
it exists. Bnt there is a general belief
without propar outlets the depression

the only resource left is to look up mar'

There is a little impatience manl

It has been stated la the publo press
that Mr. Bayard will decline to accept
a position in Mr. Clsvealnd's oabine,
the ground of the declination being,
that the position calls for a greater out-
lay of money than Mr, Bayard's ex
chequer will justify. In fact it is stated
that Mr. Bayard has given this as a
reason why he could not aoospt. Of
o-jurse, men who have any knowledge
of Mr. Bavatd's dislike to parade a
matter personal to himself before the
public, will not credit the statement,
yet it may be true that men have cor
rectly divined this to be the reason
But in this statement the great body of
the people will find muoh food for re-
fl Section. Here we hsve the statement
that Mr. Bavard Is comparatively a
poor man, worth about $100,000. The
salary of a cabinet officer is $8,000 per
year, and yet we are told he is too poor
to accept an offiice with a salary which
by nine-tenths of the voters of the
country would be regarded as almost a
fortune.
Americans that our government was one
of simplicity ef character, liberality of
spirit, and cheapness of administration.
That all men are equal. That public
position was open to all alike. But if
. . s
deprived of the privilege of holding an
official position because they are too
poor, how many men in the United
States are eligible to such a posit ion t
Under a government of whose freedom
end liberality we have always been so
proud, we hsve allowed a custom of ex
as
travaganoe to grow up which is an
alarming evidence of its decadense of
oublic virtue snd patriotism. The
m
vanity of ostentatious display, of costly
fetes, is as foolish as it is hsrmful.
God grant that Cleveland may disooun-
tenenoe such childish snd barbaric nen
sm. a
sense. Uur truly great men need no
such sppeals to sensuality to. bold the
honor and respect of the people. One
who adequately fills a high office san I
have little taste and no time for the
costly follies by which knavish rulers
amuse their people while they steal their
liberties. The beautiful in art is costly,
and desirable but should come titer
the true snd good. It has its propet
place. B it in the boat days of our re
public, our statesmen were both poor
snd pure. If none but .he rich can be
among our rulers, then are we a mere
plutocracy. No, ao! We are a nation
of Democrats, snd the time is yet far
distant when men, capable of honorabiy
filling any place cannot be found to live
on $8,000 a year.

BLUSH BULL.
Hon. T. J. Black, one of the mem
bers of the lower bouse of the legi-
latue from this county has secured
the passage of the following bill
through tbe lower boose, the bill
having been introduced ejrly in tbe
session by bimi
Bi it enacted, etc,: Sac. 1. That
all contracts made and entered into
by and between borrower and lender,
debtor and creditor, or morrgagor and
mortgagee, whereby ooe party shall
a a l a a,! J.La I
agree to pay tbe taxes on tbe debt,
credit or mortgage existing or enter.
ed into between such parties, be and
the same are hereby declared legal
and valid; Provided, that any excess
that borrower, debtor, or mortgagee
may pay or agree upon in excess of
tbe rate of interest now allowed by
law for tbe use of money, shall not be
deemed or taken to be usurious.
Bsc. 2. All contracts entered into
under section 1 of this act may be
enforced by the parties thereto in the
courts of this state; Provided, That in
making the assessments of credits,
loans or mortgages the same shall be
assessed to the holder therof as now
provided by law.
The effect of this bill will be that a
contract will be entered into between
borrower and lender, by which the
latter, in addition to paying the lender
ten per cent interest on the money
borrowed, will also be required to
pay the tax which may be levied up-
on tbe mortgage. Tnis will legalize
a. A W m m. i as a
the taking of usury by the lender to the
extent of tbe amount of taxes which
may be levied upon his mortgage.
As an example. A man gives a
mortgage upon bis farm to secure the
payment of $3,000. The
interest at
10 per cent would amount to $800
per anumn. Now the lender and bor
rower under this bill can enter into
a contract by which tbe latter shall,
in addition to the Interest, pay also
the taxes which may be assessed
against the mortgage, which if the
rate of taxes is 2 per cent, would
amount to $60. This 2 per cent
added to the 10 per cent Interest
would increase the actual rate paid
by the borrower to 12 per cent.
It Is a grave question whether a
man can pay 12 per cent interest next
year or the next, when, in many
cases it has been demonstrated that
he can not pay 10.lt places the borrow
er whose debt is due very much at the
mercy of the lender, and ultimately
has the effect of plunging him down
deeper into the swelling tide of debt
by which he Is already threatened to
be overwhelmed. This bill Is receiv
ing very much adverse criticism and
tbe final action of the Senate upon It
will be closely watched.
