WHAT ARE THEY +?

We trujt that large portion of our read
ers have pondered the Appeal Of Mr.. Fes-
s,ndcn, our new Secretary Of the Treasury.
The purport of it is that the People of the
United States. acting as a body through
their agent the Government. wish individuals
to lend them two hundred millions of dollars
for three years. at seven md thrcc-tenths per
cent. annual interest, payable every six
months. For this they offer Treasury Notes
that is, in reality. notes drawn and en-
dorsed by every man in the country The
loan is wanted for great national purpose.
to effect which every man, unless he be Il
traitor at heart if not in act, is solemnly
pledged.
The Appeal is addressed not merely to a
few great capitalists but also to the many
whose aggregate means constitute the mass
of the wealth of the land. The notes upon
which this loan is asked are from $50 up.
ward. Every man who has fifty dollars can
take part in this loan. Apart from patriot
ism and the duty which all owe to their
country, no investment is so desirable as this.
1t is secure. Every dollar Of every man S
property is pledged for the punctual payment
of the interest, and Of the debt when due
The security is increasing in value. For
some years before the war we were earning
1000 millions a year more than we SPENT
During the three years of the war. owing to
the high prices and constant demand for
labor. we have earned more than ever before.
No man who could or would work has been
ldle and, except tor the war, we have spent
less than before. The total valuation of the
property of the United States, according to
the census of 1860 was SIG, $50, 900, 600. of
which $40, 957, 44S,95G was in the LOYAL
States This valuation, according to the
usual rule OF assessment, was not more than
two-thirds of the actual cash value of the
property. The increase of property in the
Loyal States during the last ten YEARS was
over l2G per cent, or an average of II 6-1O
per cent. per annum. in three years of the
war we of the United States have certainly
earned 5000 millions more than we have
spent, apapt from the war. The cost of the
war may be set down at 1000 millions De-
Quoting this from our net earnings, the Peo-
pie who are security for this loan are 1000
millions richer to-day than they were when
the war broke out
No other investment can be so easily con-
vertible. The man who has Treasury note
for $50, or 500, or $1,000, can turn It into
money more readily, and upon better terms,
than 1t 1t were invested upon bond and mort
gage, or in railroad stocks.
The interest offered is higher than can be
realized from any other safe and convertible
investment. 1t is, moreover, readily col,

lectable when due. To each note are affixed
five coupons or interest tickets, due at
the expiration OF each successive hall.year
The holder of a note has simply to cut off
one OF these coupons. present it at the near
est bank or Government Agency, and receive
his interest the note Itself need not be pre-
scnted at all. Or Il coupon thus payable will
everywhere be equivalent, when due, to
money.
Thus while this loan presents Great advan-
taGes to large capitalists. it offers special
inducements to those who wish to make II
safe and profitable investment of small
saving. 1t is i'll every way the best Savings
Bank for every institution Of this kind must
somehow invest its deposits rroftably in
/ order to pay interest and EXPENSES They
will invest largely in this loan. as the best
investment. But from the gross interest
which they receive they must deduct largely
for the expenses of the bank. Their usual
rate of interest allowed to dcposito:> is ) per
cent. upon sums over $500. The person who
invests directly with the Government will
| receive almost ID per cent. more. Thus the
man who deposits 1000 i'll private Savings
| Bank receives % dollarSa year interest; if
| he deposits the same sum in this National
! savings Bank he receives 70 dollars For
| those who wish to find safe. convenient,
and profitable means of investing the surplus
earnings which they have reserved for their
old age or for the benefit of their children,
there is nothing which presents 50 many ad-
vantagcs as this National Loan.
| 1t is convertible into a six per cent. gold
bearing bond. At the expiration OF three
years holder of the notes of the 100 loan
has the option OF accepting payment in full
or of funding his notes in six per cent. gold
interest bond. the principal payable in not
| less than live nor more than twenty years
from its date as the Government may elect.
For six months past, these bonds have
ranged at an average premium Of about eight
| per cent in the New York market and have
sold at 100 to-day Aug. l2th> thus making
the real rate OF interest over ten per cent;
! and besides. to make the inducement even
greater, Congress by special act cxcmpts its
Treasury notes from State and municipal
/ taxation. Could Shylock ask more? Was
patriotism ever SO literally rewarded?

THE BLACK LIsT.-We could not get this
list made up the present week, but are in
hopes that we will be enabled to do so in
time for our next issue. We arc determined
to hold every man who dom pay his portion
towards exemptiug the District from draft,
up to the scorn and contempt of the com
munity And when he comes sneaking
about the election polls, Boosting of his
Cnionism or his Democracy, the people will
say, "Hcre comes one of the draft shirks. We
know the measure of your patriotism. The
man who refused to pay triAe to exempt
his District from draft will sell his vote to
the highest bidder" Bah

The Schoo! Commissioners assembled

At their office, in Elkton, on Thursday last.
The principal object of their meeting being
to tetermine what course was to be pursued
in regard to the High Schools required BY
the late act Of the Legislature, to be estab-
lished in the county. 1t was resolved by
the Board, on account of our insuHicency
OF funds. to establish at present three High
Schools required by law, to take means to
| establish one at Elkton
The erection of those in the 9th and 18th
Districts will not be attempted at present
but the money which was assigned by law
! $500 to each SCHOOL, will be invested 70,
the benefit Of said schools when the Public
School Board deem it expedient to establish
the remaining two.
We prophecy that this High School pro-
ject will prove failure. We are in need o.
good common schools first. There cannot
be funds sufficient raised under the present
aw TO carry On High Schools. The whole
thing seems to US to be striving after
something not attainable under present cir,
cumstances.
