Suvi't-jil important fuels are bronijh t
out in the roport. Il Is plain , in the

west and south are not ay universal as

jior rontof theapreasfoin Iowa U today
undoiimirtfrage , thn evils involvoil in
the system are much le-s [ 'onoral than
iiasbneiiclalinod , It Is doubtful ifnny
other line of business in llio country can
iimlio a bettor showing of a < ots and
liabilities than could bo computed for
tliongriciiltut'nl industry on such a Insis ,
C It Is equally apparent that the vast
proponileranco of mortgage Indebted
ness in the west represents the purchase
and lniirovciuent | of lands. In oUicr
words , ilroprosuiils tbo devclopmont of
tlio country and the operation of the
forces that increase the wealth of the
stain and nation , it iseorUinly no dis
credit to the west that money is bor
rowed largely and generally for this
purpose , Money is as omontial to tlio
development of new eoun trios us sunlight
and moNUiro tothu'gronth of CIOJH.
This being bo , bow short-sighted must
thill people bo who would deliberately
sol to work to keep capital out by the
enactment of more vigorous laws that il
meets olt-owliore.
A feature of the report by no ino'ins
assn.ti > .fnetnry , however , is tbo showing
of interest chiu-gos. Ten per cent is tlio
minimum rate , both in the west and in
the south , and it ranges upward until in
some cases il touches 10. it is a humil
iating rolloi'tion upon our limnoinl
methods that men are compelled to pay
more than 10 per cent for money MJ-
cured on property as substantial as any
thing that eaa bo offered. A safe in
vestment bearing interest at 10 percent
is as good employment ascapital isjiisli-
lied in asking or labor in attempting to
provide. Everything above tlmt figure
is robbery , secured in a spirit of pi un
der by tlio exercise ot might
iigiiinst right. It is entirely just that
tlio hiwinnlcing power should bo di
rected in all its foreo ngainsl the con
tinuance of such criminal methods of
banking.
The custom leaner and Iho western
borrower nro indispensable to each
oilier. Neither asks more than the
olhi'i1 Is willing lo grant. The evil of
the present mortgage system resides in
tlio third parly , or middle man , who
takes his pound of llosh out of both
parties and thrives equally well on their
fortune and misforlnne. lie is the limn
that the lawmaker ought to bo gunning
for.
TO 11K1.1' 'i'HK IJIltitlAl ,
The people of the United States un
questionably are interested in the result
of the election which will take place in
Canada next week. The ono issue of
the content rehiles wholly to the ques
tion of future commercial relations bo-
Iwoen Iho dominion and Ibis counlry ,
and there is involved in the result the
\volfaroof a trade amounting to nearly
3100,000,01)0 ) annually , about equally di
vided between the two countries , This
isa more valuable commerce than the
United Stntos bus with any other coun
try except Great Britain and Ireland ,
Cor many and Franco , and under
more favorable conditions tban now
oslst for mi exchange of pro-
duets it ought to mate
rially increase. . Tlio government party
in ( 'auada Iris prc < cmted a programme
for limit d reciprocity , and the result of
Iho elect ion will determine whether the
people will bo satistled with this or de
sire a broader commercial policy with
respect to the Unilod fcjuto.s , The con
servative or lory party sViuds for Iho
former , the liberals for the latter.
Should this country attempt to exert
any inllueiico nuon Iho contest , is Iho
question suggested by the otTort being
inudo in Washington lo liavo passed by
congress what is known as Iho Jlill res
olution. This resolution was presented
at the first session , it is presumed with
the approval , If not upon the
suggestion of the secretary of
state , but for reasons known
only to tbo loaders of the house it has
received no attonllon hinca. It is sim
ply an assurance to the Canadian gov
ernment that whenever It shall signify a
desire , satisfactory to the president , teen
on tor into negotiations for closer trade
lolatlons with the United Suites , the
president may appoint commissioners to
confer with similar representatives of
tlio dominion. Its passage would merely
imply a willingness on Iho part of tins
country to negotiate. It isai-suinodtliat
such an assurance from congress would
exert an Inllueiico favorabloto the Cuua-
dian liberals , and It is stated that tlio
author of the resolution , supported by
numerous and strong petitions from all
parts of Iho country , will make a vigor
ous eltort to have It passed.
There does not appear to be any good
reason why congress should refuse toox-
press a willingness to have the subject
of closer trade rotations between the
United States and Canada discussed , re
gardless of the possible inllnenco of such
action upon the contest In the laltor
country.Vearcto dolormino for our-
bolves whether ornot wo want reciprocity

rotijirosRinim .lorry Simpson of Kan
sas U tbo only alliance leader who has
thus far enjoyed national notoriety , lie
iw regardedis n typical product of the
political uprising which throw him to
the HUrfni'o , and his ideas puss current
as tbo plans nnd purposes of Iho move
ment.
Simpson has outlined his pint form tea
a newspaper intorvlowor , I To says bo
favors the abolition of tlio United States
senate , which is neither n useful nor a
represent alive bu.ly. IIj ) is thoroughly
committed to the scheme to provide
general prosperity by net of congress.
Ho will therefore unlhiHiaHllcally
support thosnb-troasury bill , the ll per
cent land loan bill , unlimited sliver coin
age , unlimited irredeemable greenbacks
and warehouse receipts on all kinds of
farm products. Assuming that Jerry
Simpson's Ideas truly represent the pol
icy of the alliance contingent in the
next congress , which consists of three
Honatoi-s and eight representatives , the
country may know in advance with
what now forces it lias to deal.
Such a policy as the Kansas member
has marked out for himself andhisparty
will-111001 with the uncompromising
opposition of the conservative elements
of the country. It may bo popular for
a lime , as anti-Masonry , grcenbackisin ,
anil other political vagaries have been
in the past. In Iho end il nuiil go dovn
before the sturdy common sense of the
American poople. if it devel
ops temporary strength snlllcienl
to monni'u the prosperity of
the country it may precipitate
new political alignments and divide the
old parties for a time , bul under no cir
cumstances can the theories of .ferry
Sim p on become the policy of the gov
ernment.
Tlio Simpson platform represents a
class movement , and nothing else. It
aims to rovolutioni'/.o our national fin
ance and emulate the ruinous policy of
the Argentine republic. It would in-
Ihilo tbo currency with tons ( if worthless
paper and depreciated silver , niul turn
the national treasury into a broker and
loan shop with the wildest of wildc.it .
currency as a substitute for sound money.
The inevitable effect would be piveisolv
opposilo lo what Simpson wants and ox-
peols. It would nol make tlio rich poorer
and the iinor richer. It would increase a
thousand fold the power of tlio man who
now possesses largo amounts of money
of intrinsic worth and reduce
lo abject slavery Iho men
whose depreciated dollars lacked the
vital purchasing power. The farmer
would sell his products for : i currency
that .vonld not him far less than the
present low prices which ho receives in
good money. The and of it all would bo
disaster , with the poor fanner hope
lessly buried at the bottom of the heap
and the triumphant millionaire on top.
Upon such a platform as Jerry Simp
son has outlined there can bn iiohopoof
success for the movement to which ho
belongs. It may entail a long struggle
in politics , but in the end it is certain to
bo laid away with the political follies of
the past. ,
miVI.HHIT UP < : HOOKS.
The Uouglns county bastilo is a jail in
name only. Equipped with all modern
improvements for tlio safe-keeping of
criminals , only those who hick the en
ergy to take udvnatnga of their oppor
tunities burden the county for the full
term of sentence.
It is not tlio fault of the mechanism of
the jail that con viclod crooics walkout
to fivodnm without question. In a few
instances professionals slipped through
ventilators or greased the combination
lucks , merely to show the innnngoimmt
what thoroughbreds could do under
pressure. Jiut the physical exertion re
quired by this method is no longer
necessary. A mere exchange of toggery
with ii follow boarder or the assumption
of lictilious mimes nro now tbo simple
requisites to an unobstructed wnllc-out.
Within ten days two notorious bur
glars have disappeared in this way. Ono
assumed tlio garb of a cell-male , Iho
other a bogus nainn , nnd bulb escaped
the ends of justice. How long
will the county tolerate such glaring in-
eompoteney In the nnnagomciit of the
jail ? Does not the frequency of oseapo.s
prove the total unlltnossof the jallortuid
his subordinates'1 ;
The responsibility rests on SheritT
Hoyd. lie Is charged with the safe
guarding of Iho prisoners audit is his
duty to employ callable subordinates.
The position of jailer requires a man
thoroughly familiar with Iho character
istics of the criminal classes , ono capa
ble of pimotniting at a glnnce Iho trielcs
and subterfuge ? in which they are
adopts. < 'ertninly the jailor should pos

luminnnt and industrial Incentive Is in

element of progress to one company ,
The price oxiivtud fur electric lights in

One biich , though hardly fetinlcieiil , was
the case of Van Huron , who while
governor of New York was appointed
secretary of state by 1'resident
.Jackson nnd remained in the ollico of
governor for some time allor aeccpling

this precedent Is defective for tlio rea
son that in Van Huron's ease the oileo
was appointive and U was in llm discre
tion of the president to appoint n sub
stitute until lha chief win * ready tenet ,
while the position ofUiiitod States sen
ator being elective no other person than
Iho ono chosen can occupy it. The term
of ollico begins March -1 , and the
o.ith of olllce should bo taken on
that day when practicable. The weight
of opinion appears to bo thai Governor
Hill has no alternative except to resign
the ollico of governor whoa his senator
ial term begins and outer upon that of
senator , bul whether this view is Mrong
enough to convince tlio { governor ro-
nmins to be soon. Undoubtedly If he
can llnd any justifiable reason for hold

islative session einis ho will net upon il ,
but in any event Iiis course ismorolikoly

IT is eminently ploper for the legisla

against wild-cat insurance companies ,
but there is no justification for enacting
