For the Sinking Fund, Extraordinarily
" Fusion .......... 7
Here is the reduction at last. Yes,
and what a reduction In order to
make it, the sinking fund Commissioners
are to issue certificates and renew the
State Debt. The payment of the prin-
cipal is to be postponed for from 10 to.
20 years; the principal will be more
than paid in paying the interest, and
still be unpaid. What economy what
retrenchment! Eut WHY was it done ?
As the State is undoubtedly loser by it,
why was it done? Simply in order that
the stock might form a basis for bank
ers to operate upon. 1t is to be the
foundation of a swarm of new banks,
which were contemplated by the Kelly
bill which passed the Legislature. The
people must pay part of the money out
of their pockets to sustain banks, SO that
the banks may blow up and make what
they have left valueless.
But this is not all their retrenehment;
there remains one more item, and only
one, The Library tax, it will be seen
Is stricken out of the Fusion levy. It
required just one mill. after adding four

Of paying it, to make the same as last
year. Yes, the Library tax is suspend
ed, and you who are not able to pur-
chase q library of your own, can amuse
yourselves on long evenings by staring
at the fire or perhaps you will be bet
ter employed in deyising some plan to
raise money to pay the Fusion Legis-
lature for extra sessions, pleasure trips
and smelling committees appointed to
get them into Office again. This is the
substitute which the Fusionists give
you for books. Let those who Like such
