THE LAEE.FRONT.

To Ele Editor Of The Chicago Tribune:
SIR: favor selling the Lnke-front, but only
as all public property should be sold, viz: at
public suction to the highest bidder; aud, If the
three blocks from Randolph to Monroe street are
properly advertised and put on the market they
will sell, even now, for oTer $o,000,000, az tho
following rough estimates will sbundan:1y show:
Assuming the width OF the land from Michigan
avenue to the railroad right-of-way to bo 800
et,-and it don't vary much from hat,-:he
railroads then have several sidc-tracks already
laid on portions Of this land; but these Doubt
less can, aud certainly should, be removed at
once. Now. extend Indiana avenue north along
the west line of the xailroad rigLt-of-way. This
still Leaves an average width Of, say, 294 feet.
Then extend Randolph, Washington, Madison,
and nionroe streets east to Indiana aTenao and
recol1eet the opening of these streets costa moth
Jig, as the city now owns all the land.
The distance from Randolph to WASH
ington is 38i feet; from WASH
ington to Madison, 342 feet. and from
Madison to Monroe street, have not the ex-
act measurement by me,-39o feet; and these
measurements will be net after the cast and
west streets are extended and made 80 feet wide.
Now, subdiride inso lots fronting north and
south on Randolph, Washington, Madison, and
Monroe streets, 80 feet deep to 16-foot alley
Ohia is more than the average depth Of this class
Of business lots); and We have on these east
aud west streets l ,404 feet frontage. Now,
while property on Washington, Madieon. etc.,
only two Blocks west Of this, sells at 5000 per
foot,-and q number of sales ut that rate hare
been reported in your paper during the past
week,-nobody will contend TINT the average
price OF this property should be lees than half
that; but, to be entirely safe, put il at third,

Of this property will say that have valued it

are panicky times, and want to make low

Good reasons mny-posaib1y do-exist why the
city should donate to the railroads some
sl,452, 600 worth Of property for the purpose Of
getting magnificent depot, de-. DC, but tho
case should be stated in that way, and not SO as
to deceive the people, who are the owners OF
this land, as to the actual value Of the property
they nre conveying.
As stated in the beginning OF this communica-
tion, am in favor Of selling this land, and also
all the remaining portion of this Lake-front, to-
gether with all other real estate owned by the
city and not neededf for Immediate use. The en-
tire forty acres Of this Lake-front property, It
properly put in the market will sell for from
Sc, 900, 600 to $4,000. 600; and, if all other un-
used pieces owned by the city are sold at the
same time and sale, probably over $40, GOO, 900
can be realized. Apply all OF this money to-
financial condition would bo wonderfully 1n1-
proved.
Another good reason for selling all the unused
city real estate is II We don't sell it aud pay
onr debts, some enterprising individual or rail
road company will buy up the city officers some
day, and "gobble" it. Some three years ago,
about 100 feet frontage on North LaSalle and
North Clark streets, worth at that time over
s200, 1000, was conveyed, in some sort OF q trade,
to private parties, BY order Of the then Common
Council. And soon afterwards one Of the prin-
cipal parties in that transaction testified that he
bought up majority OF the Aldermen at s25o
each. The amount per head paid in this
case was ridiculously low, does us no
credit as q city, and is, in fact, scarcely an
no eyiderce that any future Council cannot be
bought at equally low rates. That poor, frail
body will at bost always be sufficiently tempted /;
but certainly the right to sell large amounts Of
city property, except at public sale, should be
positively prohibited in the organic law, and the
temptations to corruption in this direction re-
moved. DAVID W11L1AMs.

The Eternity OF Capital in lts Effects
upon Society.
To tie Editor Of Tie Chicago Tribune:
SIR: In my letter on Capital and Interest,
published in your paper Jan. 1, I considered tho
eternity Of Capital injurious to society. IN this
letter will explain it.
A father, for instance, gives his eldest son q
steam-engine worth $4,000, and his second son
$4,000 in cash. The latter lends his money out
at 10 per cent ample interest, and the first rents
competition, is high rent; it is 1871 per cent in
terest on his money. Now, which of the two
sons Will win on the long run?
THE YOUNG CAPITALIST WILL.
1t the end of ten years the steam-cngne will
be worn out, and all the owner Of it has at that
time is 33,G50, while the capitalist has $4,000,
although the first received 1915 per cent and the
latter only 10 per cent. This demonstrates how
important the duration OF Capital is It is,
therefore, not surprising at al that ne have so
many millionaires, while the working society re-
mains about in the same position. Without any
outlay whatever, a capitalist lends ont his re-
ceived interest. andit comes back, in ten or fif-
teen years after, double in quantity. Whether
it is 800 or 81 l,ooo, 900 is all the same And
every Of these dollars is an eternal dollar; it
don't get old and need not be replaced bv new
one. The visible silver dollar is only the
coat Of this invisible eternal Capital dollar, and
that coat may wear out hundred times; but
the
CAPITAL DOLLAR NEVER WILL.
In q million OF years wa will find it restless,

agreement, which leads to it's victory, ne will

Rates of Advertising.
A SPIRITED GIRL.

We have fallen upon piece Of
newspaper, (apparently about 1880
in which is mentioned the following
incident respecting a spirited girl of
seventeen years of age in Illinois. She
was an heiress to an estate valued at
ten thousand dollars, and ran away
with young man who paid his ad.
dresses to her, taking with her an ac-
quaintance as bridesmaid. Her guar
dian, believing her lover wholly un-
worthy Of her, refused his consent 10
her marriage so she went off to be
married at distance from home, on
the farther side of the Mississippi.
When the party reached the river, the
ice was running furiously, and any at
tempt to cross would be fullof danger.
a boat being procured, the young
lady, in momentary expectation of
being followed by her guardian, wished
instantly to be pushed from the shore,
and all embarked on the perilous voy-
age. The party had nearly reached
the head Of an Island, about a third
of the distance from the opposite
shore, when the current became mora
rapid, the cakes of ice very large, and
their situation extremely dangerous.
TheAver, excessively frightened, and
forgetful of. everybody but his own
dear self, bawled out in the most
piteous accent; ,-"Oh, l shall be
downed !! l shall be drowned" and
bitterly reproached his lady love as
the cause Of his probable death. She
uttered not word-her courage and
presence of mind seemed to increase
with the peril. A tremendous cake
Of ice fairly capsized the boat, but it
was so largAthat all got on it. The
lover rendered no assistance at all. 1t
bore them to the head Of the island,
and, as good fortune would have it,
the stream between it and the MISSOURI
shore was frozen over, and they cross
ed without difficulty. They reached
a tavern near the river, and after
changing their wet garments and be-
coming warm at good fire the lover
limited to the young lady that it was
time now for them to have that knot
tied, as the magistrate had arrived for
that purpose and was in the next room.
She gave him most witheringi look
of contempt, and declared she would
not unite ber destiny with one who
was selfish and cowardly. 1t was in
vain that he attempted by entreaty
and argument to change her resolu-
tion-she was immovable and replied
to him with scorn. A few days after
wards she returned to the house of her
guardian, thankful that she had escaped
marrying a man whose only object
was her fortune. Her lover returned
to this side of the river also, but such
showers of f,ridicule and contempt were
bestowed upon him that he found
it best to decamp, which he did, leav-
ing behind him host of unpaid de-
mands. The story has this moral, that
young ladies should be careful with
whom they attempt to run away,

A PROPOSITION.

A New Yorker, in spirit of wag.
gerry, doubtless, offers as suggestion
to Congress, "That Senators and Rep
resentatives shall receive compensation
on and after the 4th day Of March,
1915, as follows; When the balance
of trade with foreign countries is
against our people, each Senator shall
receive $4,000, and each Representa-
tive $4,000 per annum, and when the
balance of trade with foreign countries
is in our peoples favor each Senator
shall receive $4,000 and each Repre-
sentative 81 800 per annum. In de-
termining the balance of trade, Meth
cir bullion no. coin shall be counted
as an import or export" Whatever
the spirit that prompted the sugges-
tion, it fairly hits the nail on the head.
Congress is practically uninterested in
this entile issue of finance. The men,
bers receive, each, a certain salary,
and dawdle time away when the in
terests Of the country are actually
suffering. Could its members be in

A nEAR STORY WITH A pfoRAL.


A man killed a bear and brought
the meat to town to sell. | asked him
if it was good to eat. He said, GER
tainly it was, and cheap as dirt at
twenty-five cents per pound. / asked
him why bear meat should be any
higher than any other meat. He told
me bear meat had a peculiar effect on
the human system; that those eating
it would partake for time, not only
of the meat, but of the nature of the
animal; that bears we're great fellows
to hug; that if / was married man
| should buy some. for my wife and
get her to eat it for supper, and she
would undoubtedly hug me.
Now my wife isn't an angel, so /
bought four pounds and paid that man
dollar-my last dollar, and he fold
ed it up, rolled paper around it and
put it down in his pocket. Then he
slapped his pocket to sec if it was
there. He then went on to say that
sometimes when the bile wasn't right
the meat had the contrary effect, and
made the woman growl and some
times in place Of wanting to hug her
husband she would want to hug the
man that killed the bear. / told him
that didn't like bear meat, and never
did; that felt sick; that l owed a
man the dollar and he would sue me
if | dil not pay him right off. But he
told me he had just paid his internal
revenue tax and hadn't cent in the
world. l thought then, and still think,
that lie must have told a lie. In fact,
after thinking over the matter, l would
not believe him under oath. Now,
am a poor man, and could not afford
to throw meat away, and SO took it

nance cooked it, and we ate il for sup

After supper we sat down by the
stove, Mary Ann went to sewing,and

So l put my arm around her, and she
told me to take it away, and wanted

and the bear meat had gone back on
