FUNDING SCHEMES IN CO ]
ORESS.
Thrco plans for further funding
Iho public debt are now under disci
sion in congress. The first ia eoi
prised in tlio bill introduced in tl
senate by Senator John Sherman ,
proposes to refund $200,000,000
the bonds continued by Mr. Windo
at 3.\ \ per cent. , at three per cent f
a term of live years , leaving nbo
$ : jiiO,000,000 of the S\ per cents
be redeemed by thogovcrmnent with
tint timti out of the surplus rev
nues. Mr. Windom holds to the b
lief that the interests of the go
eminent will be best promoted by co
tinning all the 5s and 0 $ at III p
cent. , with the option of r
demotion at any time. I
turmediato between these two plai
in that of Senator Mcl'horaon of N
Jersey , which proposes to refill !
$ -100,000,000 of the continued bom
at throe per cent. , redeemable at tl
pleasure of the government after ti
years , and payable in thirty yea
from date of issue.
A number of grave objections ai
urged ngainst Mr. Sherman's plan. J
the Inst session of congress ho was fen
moat in declaring the plan impractici
hie , and tin ) stress he has sincn lai
upon Mr. Carlyle's ameudinet
which forced the banks to giur
intoo their circulation by the no'
bonds , was by no means then the fen
most ground of his objection t.o tb
tiionHiiro. Mr. Vest's bill , which wa
so violently opposed by Seeretar ;
Sherman , failed in becoming a law f < i
precisely the same reason
which are now urged against Mr
Sherman's moamiro. There are vcr
[ grave doubts whether such short tim
mil low interest bonds would prov
marketable. Kngland's three per con
: onsolfl are below par. Within Hi
: > ast year there has been a great ox
lundituro of ready capital in further
ng private schemes of inveatmeii
ind the rate of interest , has advance )
n every financial center on the globe
These considerations render it ox
Tomely doubtful whether a IU pe
: ont four-year bond could bo place
in tlio market. lint another noriou
ibjection to the short time with !
ivhiuh Mr. Sherman's bunds must b
redeemed TT.is , that it will n
iniro the wiping out <
? 'iriO,000,000 of indebtedness wilhi
iho next fivu years , or at the rate (
570,000,000 per annum. It is a si
rioun question whether otherdeinaiid
upon our national treasury are not < :
more pressing importance. The ai
roars of pensions burden will cer
aiuly not urovr any less in the cumin
'ivo years , and millions of dollar
: ould bo expended to advantage i
mproving our rivers and replacin
mr worthless navy.
The snmo objection applien to Mi
Windom's plan to IcaVo the 3J pt
: cntn redeemable at any time at th
option of the g jvornmont. Tlio prunoi
joncr'tion has done its sliaro in th
natter of debt paying. It ha
: ancelled one-half of the pnbli
lobt since the close ot the war am
educed the rate of interest one bun
Ired per cent. It may now anfol ;
mild up the resources of the eountr
> v uplying [ ) to their development th
iiirplus revenues of thu governmen
ind leave a large portion of the fur
, licr extinguishment of the debt t
Lliono who come after them.
Mr. MePhcrson's mcauuru has tin
ulvantago of proposing a longer tim <
bund thvn that of either Mr. Shormai
K Mr. Windom. This would inaki
.hem a butter inveatment for capita
ivhich dis'iken nothing so much ua dis
.urbanco. Such a three per cent
xnul with the bonus of a thirty yea
eriu before redemption would run i
'oaeonablo chance of succt'.ssfull plac

TME PAVING PROBLEM.
Omaha must pave her principal

laino solf-ovidont that no pavenionl
uuld bo laid down during the coming
