AN IETIMATIoN AS TO KANzAs.--The Chicago
Times, generally supposed to express the politi .
cal views of Senator Douglas, condemns the
course of the Kanzas Constitutional Convention,
and thus glaness at the future - f.a 81
1--WE suppose that upon the meeting Of Con-
gTess an act will be introduoed--an act in the
very words of the Minnesota aot--authorizing
convention to form State Constitution If that
act be passed at once as it should be- Kanzss
may be State on the first of May next If no
such act be passed by Congress OF should be de-
layed, the present Legislature will provide for a
convention. AT all events a Constitution such
as will be acceptable to the people will be pre-
pared and ratified by the people, and will be pre-.
scented to Congress early in the Spring. Upon
that Constitution thus ratified and approved by
the people, Kan zas will be admitted. The Dem
ocratic party stands pledged to admit Kanzas
without questioning her decision on the slavery
question. That decision must be made by the
people, and once perfectly made that decision
must be regarded hnal.''
The New York Herald, too, is out in denuncia.
ton of the proceedings of the Lecompton Con-
vention. 1t expresses belief that they will not
be ratified by the administration, and says -
1--WE are glad to learn, however, that Gov.
Walker has been appealed to, to convene an ex-
ira session Of the Legislature to meet this con-
tingency and, for the sake Of peace in Kanzas,
we hope that the next news will be that an extra
session has been ordered. Otherwise these Le-
compton philosophers might be permitted freely
to run to the end of their rope, inasmuch as the
admission of kanzas into the Union as a State is
thing which cannot be done, except by act of
Congress. But, for the sake Of law and order in
the territory, it is desirable that this Lecompton
regency should be dealt with promptly and eff.
GENTLY BY the regular authorities, federal and To-
cal'
The administration presses, generally, continue
silent upon the new Kanzas frauds. They are
probably waiting for the keynote from Washing

GERS, but as yet returns have not been re.
ceived from the whole State, though as far as
they have they look we'll for the opponents of
sham Democracy. Five of the Egyptian coun-
ties in the Southern part of the State, which
last year voted for Buchanan, have by the aid
of the old Wings, who will undoubtedly act
with the Republicans in the future, gone
largely for the Republican ticket this fall
This city gave 1900, and the county about
1000 Republican majority. Two towns gave
every vote to the Republican ticket, and sew
eral but one or two votes to the Democracy.
We put that down as a specimen Of how the

UsURY LAws.-T The folly of the laws against
the payment Of more than six per cent. inter.
est on money in Massachusetts, has been clear
ly revealed the past year, and the present con-
dition of affairs should induce such modi6ca,
tons of existing statutes as are clearly de-
manded by the mercantile community With
the legal rate OF money in New York at
seven per cent, and the Bank of England
charging nine per cent, how utterly stupid it
is for the law of Massachusetts to make six
per cent. the legal rate of interest in this Com
monwealth. The eass cannot be clearly stat
ed without adducing unanswerable arg ument
in favor of a change in the statutes that relate
to the subject.
In regard to the laws regulating the price
of money on business paper, we are far be-
hind the older nations. the time has come
when our own cumbersome and artificial sys-
tenn should be modified or abolished. A re-
cent writer has well said, 1.-The sooner we do
away with the idea that the most important
article of merchandise shall not be subject to
tile established laws of trade, unencumbered
by restrictive legislative enactments, the bet
ter for our business, and the less we shall be
liable to these disastrous fluctuations which
have prevailed during the past year "Rent
paid for the, use of land and houses is freely
determined in the contract between the land
lord and tenant; freight is determined by the
ship owner and the person hiring of him ;
profit is determined in the contract of pur-
chase and sale. But, when we come to in.
terest on money, principles suddenly change;
here the government interyenes, and restricts
the capitalist"
This subject must certainly be approached
with great deliberation and caution, and with
knowledge of the practical working of banks
and banking laws. In particular the public
seems to be favorable to fred la,Os in relation
te loans on bond and mortgage, &c. The
New York Eventng Post says, q We are quite
sure that by bringing our large banking capt.
tai into competition with our open market,
such extremely high rates as have lately pre-
vailed would be impossible" The Post adds:
This liberty of buying and selling money
to the highest bidder, like any other commod-
ity, is the basis of the English and other Eu-
ropean systems of finance. 1t is indeed an
absolutely necessary system in all great CEN
tres of money and exchanges. II may, it is
true, be conducted illegally, as well as under
the sanction of law, but large business oper.
atoms cannot be safely conducted without
it. Place the Bank of England under a
restriction not to charge more than, for
instance, five per cent, and apply the penal
ties of usury to all outside operations at a
higher rate than this, and the monetary cen
tire of the world could not be retained IN Lon
don a single fortnight. Capital would at
once flow 10 some other city, where it could
command its true value. - Boston Trans cript.
