THE UsTRY LAWS,

The repeal Of the usury laws Is lust now
the subject uf good deal Of discussion ln
the newspaper press and In official dOcu-
ments. Gen. Dix, In his message to the
Legislature Of the State Of New York, de-
nOunces them Us relics Of barbarism, and re-
cOmmends that they lie either stricken from
the statute-boOk, or that they be so modified
las TO leave the rate Of interest to be fixed by
agreement of the parties on commercial
paper and on loans secured by the mortgage

TO the contrary. III Congress Mr.. Merriam.
uG New York, has introduced bill repeating
the usury ClNnsc In the national bank act
and the Comptroller Of the Currency, In his
last report, favor the passage Of some such
measure
The principal opposition to the repeal
comes from the farmers, who believe that
they would have to pay a higher rate Of in-
icrest upon their mortgages, and in New York
aud other cities from the money y-lcudcrs who
eyado the law aud ret II al defiance. II il
wrll-knuwn that In that city borrowers pay

To invest their money In public or corporate
securities, which cripples enterprise by with
drawing large amounts Of money from local
