One of the most useful lessons
that people can iearn is the simple
legend that decorates the head of
this article. By many it is thought
to be the acme of success to be en
abled to procure money easily and
at a low rate of interest. But past
experience if caretully noted will
show that prosperity and content
ment are more often attained by
(Faming the possession of m; ney
before using it rather than being
able to borrow it when it is wanted.
A mortgage upon the farm is by no
means a handsome adornment, and
when that mortgage is held by
foreign parties it's burdensome in
deed. From a banking journal in
the east we gather the following in
reference to mortgages on western
farms: Western farm mortgages
are, in many sections of the country,
more especially the New England
i-t tis, a favorite investment for
investors. Savings-banks are brob-
ably the largest holders of these
securities, and for two reasons:
First,, they are supposed to be ab
solutely safe that is, the land up
on which these mortgages are
given is worth much more than
the amount loaned; and, secondly,
the rate of interest agreed to be
paid being so much in excess of
that in the Eastern States, it has
enabled the banks investing in
t lein to return a larger per cent, to
their debitors. While there is at
present no reason to distrust the
values of these securites or the
sincerity of the parties offering or
investing in them, it would seem,
according to the annual reports of
the bank commissioners of New
Hampshire and Vermont, that the
amount of money deposited in the
savings banks in those states which
is invested in Western farm mort
gages has assumed such proportions
as not only to attract attention, but
to raise the question as to the ex
pediency of continuing the practice
on the same scale. In bcth New
Hampshire and Vermont a number
of investment companies have been
organized, the sole object of which
is to encourage investment in
Western securities. These operate
independently of the savings banks
and the result is that ;a large por
tion of the surplus money of New
England is to-day represented by
mortgages on Western farms. Of
course as long as business is good
and farmer is prosperous and the
interest is promptly paid, all will
be well. But should a season of
adversity come with interest and
principal both falling due, there
-ould be only one alternative, and
that, to take the land. The com
missioners openly state that to "no
considerable extent Eastern capital
is used to boom Western localites,
iind money is not loaned on the in
trinsic value of the property, but
on its prospective increase." It is
easy to understand what the result
would be should such a contingency
ever arise. As showing the confi
dence in such investments the
commissioners give figures proving
that not far from 40 per cent, of the
whole amount deposited in the
savings banks of their respective
states has been loaned in the :
Western states. How much -is
represented by the various loan
and investment companies can not
be definitely stated, for the reason
they are not uuder state supervis
or
The deadly cigarette still gets in
its work in regular order and with
diabolical effect. The latest report
ip from California w here the burn
i ig stub of a cigutette set a straw
htack on fire and burned up eight j
iu!es, five horses, three wagons j
and two headers. And still the i
small boy, the youth and the grown i
men will suck the vile things, when
they know that disease and even
death lurks in the noisome efiiuvi
um, to which they become such
abject slaves.

CLEVELAND'S DEFEA T.
The N. Y. Sun gives Cleveland
this stinging bit of uvreasm in its
"ditorial columns:
"When a party deliberately
buries out of sight the principles
n which it was founded and cf
which it has been for a century t!u
custodian and trustee; when it
.-ends it? best men to the rear and
surrenders the management of its
affairs to a syndicate of cracked
intellects and theorists enthusi
asts with just enough shrewdness
to half disguise their ultimate pur
pose; when it abandons politics,
i 1 a sane seni-e.aud makes itself an
engine for the propagation of a
theory in short, when it goes in
for an educational canvass, some
body is bound to be educated.
That is what happened yesterday.
The great mass of democracy,
sound to the core, loyal as ever to
the essentia! and eternal truths of
its creed, hopeful, even in defeat,
and courageous and unshaken this
dismal November morning, is the
victim of an educational campaign.
It has been educated with a ven
geance and at a tremendous cost.
It has learned its lesson, and is
not likely to forget the same.
