At the present time there is quite large num-
Der of persons who will not be trusted at ALL and
there is q much larger portion of the community
who cannot get credit any where, but are obliged
to pay cash at credit prices. These two classes
form, perhaps, more than one-half of our pOpula-
ton and there is good reason why poor man
should pay more than a rich one; and no sense at
all in charging CASH CUSTOMERS for bad debts
incurred under the present mode of merchandising.
If the people will only bestow one thought upon
the subject they will at once that-paying GUS
toners assume all the bad debts, or in other words
they take all the risks of the credit system. The
present time is very discouraging for making Debts
the obligations of the people are now very large,
larger by far than the crops this will dis
charge. Property of all Kinds is continually run
ming down, and how would it be with us in the
event of total or even partial failure of the crops
next season? Is there one so blind that he cannot
that in such event it would take a large
amount of property to pay very small debt. Who
then is so bold to increase their liabilities I'M
