The CORRECT PRINCIPLE,

The great advantage of the method
employed to separate the grain from the straw in
this machine is unmstakoable. 1t is reputed to
save enough an average over other kinds OF
machines, to pay the farmers thresbing bill, and
Its superiority is readily conceded by all except
"agents" and manufacturers" of the old style,
who are blinded by conflicting interests.

Hence Results its comparative Ease
Of Draft. Cheapness of Repairing, Ease of Manage
of these important features alone, would give It
prominence. But it clearly excels in all of them.
This is tho Machine which has
created such q sensation in threshing machine
circles during the past two years. Farmers who

as they can sell their old machines SO as to buy

VI t3AcS leVlcQ LOT state purposes
they diminished the sum levied to
pay the State debt, and increased
the levy for other State purposes
almost 100000.
The acts of the last Legislature
in relation to local debts and local
taxes are of the most extraordinary
character. These acts relate to
raising money for county purposes
for township purposes, for city
and village purposes, and for spe.
cial purposes. These taxes or debts
are levied or incurred under the
direction of County Commissioners,
Township Trustees, or of city OF
village Councils, or derive their au.
.hority exclusively from State legis.
lation. The State Legislature has
therefore the control of the whole
matter. Now, the gen neral state
ment which I wish to make, and
which I believe is sustained by the
facts, is, that the late Democratic
Legislature authorized greater local
peydhiary burdens TO be imposed
upon the people of. Ohio. without
their consent, than we're ever before
authorized ,byany-. General: Assem-
blts sthern peace or in war, since
the Organization of our State Gov.
ernment. r.-.
Sixty or seventy different acts
were passed authorizing debts to be
contracted amounting in the aggre
gate to more than 1926, 100000 A
large part of them bear eight pei
cent. interest, and very small par
bear less than seven and three -tenths
per cent. interest. And they passed
seventy or eighty acts by which
additional taxes we're authorized to
the amount of over $40, 600, 900.

The interest Bin.

The subject of legal interest on
money was up in the Legislature
last week. The House discussed for
two days the bill of Mr.. Hughes, OF
Butler, providing for free trade in
money. The feature of the pro-
ceedings vas speech by Mr.. Dick
son, of Lorain, in favor of the bill
BE showed that the interests Of
labor and industry more than all
others require the passage of such a
measure-that capital and labor are
strictly conioined, and that you can sl, :
not benefit the one without IN The
same measure benefting the other.
He further showed how by our
absurd ..usury law, as it is miscail-
ed, capital is being turned away
from Ohio that would otherwise
come into it. and large sums are
being drawn out of the State, to
seek investment elsewhere. His
speech was an exceedingly able one,
and heldsthe attention of the House
as no other one had done. Mr.
Cockerell, Of Adams, also made an
excellent speech upon the same side,
rebuking powerfully Mr. Walling,
of Pickaway, who had endeavored
to array the prejudices of the demo-
cratic members against the BILL 1t
early became evident that the meas
ure was to be made partisan one,
and that nearly the entire demo-
cratic strength would be rallied to
vote the measure down. So, no one
was disappointed, when, the ques-
tion being upon the passage of the
bill, the vote resulted-ayes, 40,
nayes, Sc.
This vote was Immediately recon
sidered, and then was offered a sub
stitute legalizing 8per cent. interest.
This was warmly contested, but it
finally passed-61 to 81. So the
House decides that the good people
of Ohio may, if they like, pay as
much as 8 per cent. for the use of
money, without violating the law,
but all above that is "usury" and
void.
Ifthe good of the State and the
people had alone been consulted,
this measure would undoubtedly
have passed. But democrat looks
at every thing through partisan
glasses, and the hopes of drawing
little political capital out of this
measure, lead to its defeat. We
think they are mistaken in the SEN
timent of the people.
The bill requires the action of the
Senate to make it law.
