POLITICAL.

From present appearances we derive the
opinion that the Anti Monopoly Conven-
tion,-so called, which is to meet at Owa-
tonna on the 22d inst, will endorse the
Democratic nominee for Govcrnor-Mr.
Buell., and select new men for the other
positions. Mr.. Dixie will undoubtedly be
their candidate for the Treasury. They
profess to think that a large number
nearly all Of the Davis Republicans will
vote their ticket, and that the democracy
will come over to them in considerable
numbers. We do not believe that they
expect to elect single State officer, but
that they hope to carry some portions OF
their local tickets is not improbable. They
base their hopes upon an expectation that
the republican party will be divided at
the polls, az it was in the late Senatorial
contcst,-a condition not likely to charac.
tc:ize the coming election. It must be
evident to all who take the trouble to think
that rcpublicanism and democracy are
complete antithesos; that upon questions
governmental policy they differ as wide
]y as Jew and Greek did IL matters of re-
ligion,-that there can be neither sympa-
thy, nor community Of purpose, nor har-
mony Of action between them. Itfollows
then as corollary, that whatever value
there may be in the side issues, raised by
persons styling themselves Anti-monopc-
lists, is really gcrma ne to the policy of
the republican party, and identical with
its principles and purposcs,-heuce it is
impossible to build upon thom new pc.
litical organization, tor such can lie cs;ab.
lishcd only by the discovery of truths in
government which are foundational. If
our friends who seek with SO much peril
nacty the success Of special schemes Of
reformation will examine the whole field,
they will discover that everything which
they desire and much more is embodied
in the possibilities of republicanism and
that the surest way of accomplishing their
wishe; is to contribute the full measure of
their strength to the support of the origin
al party, and thus aid in practically devcl-
oping all its bcncfic mt purposes.

TAX TIE MORTGAGES,

Upon some theory not very sound nor
very easily comprehendcd, it has been
quite generally held by the authorities
that money secured by mortgage en- Real
Estate, was not proper subject of taxa
ton, and we think it is about time that
the theory was exploded. If there is any
class of property which should be exempt
from taxation it is certainly not that which
is represented by real estate securities.
Some men but very few, who hold mort
cages, may have listed the amount Of mon
cy 50 secured, but an examination of the
Records will show that but small amount
comparatively, IS entered upon the assess
mcIt rolls. We think that ii is the duty
of the County Commissioners to direct
the Auditor or some other competent per-
son to compare the assessment rolls Of the
several cities and towns with the records
in the Office Of the Register of Deeds, and
make list Of Mortgages, their dates, the
amount secured by each, and the name Of
the mortgage, and If such list shall show
the existence of credits not given to the
Assessor, tic persons in whose favor the
credits appear, ought be summoned be-
fore the County Commissioners to show
cause why they should rot pay taxes there
on. It is fact we'll understood that the
people in moderate circumstances pay pro-
portionatcly much more taxes than do
those who are wealthy, and it is time that
some effort were made to obvate SO fragrant
wrong. Money does not eat nor wear,
nor deterioratc in value, nor does it work,
nor create. It is a mere outstanding
between production on one side and use
on the other, aiding to effect all exchange
Of commodities. This is its legitimate
function, Notwithstanding the bounds
Of its proper sphere, it becomes purchas-
er at arbitrary rates established by itself,
and thus dictates the value of labor and
the price of produce. In this view Of the
case, it will be deemed 10 injustice if
money be made to pay its full proportion
of the revenue necessary for the support
Of local and State Government. Will the
Commissioners make an examination and
see to what extent taxes are being paid on
money secured by mortg age OF real estate :?

EA<ANAAAO, AAIAN. mug ~SS AosO'
To the farmers Of Southern Minnesota.
For many years farmers have been wait
ing for some kind Of harvesting machine
which should not only cut but bind the
grain. Many hundred patents have been
issued on binders, but until recently no
binder has been invented adapted to the
requirements Of the farming commenity.
The firm Of G. H. & L. J. Mccormick,
who have always furnished the best and
latest improved harvesting machinery,
and have never put off Oh the farmers ma
chimes that were constantly breaking
down or could not lie make to work, have
also been engaged III. pecfccting a binder
that should work successfully. This they
have accomplished. It is no longer an
experiment with them, but IN established
fact-a complete SUCCESS.
Commencing with al early harvest IN
Texas, and continuing in the field until
the close Of the harvest in Minnesota, the
Mccormick Binder has been thoroughly
tested in every particular. In our own
State it has been at work during the sea-
son near Rochester The writer after visit
ing the field and watching its operation
for two days, does not hesitate to assure
his farmer friends that in the binder
which will be offered them next season by
the firm Of G. II. 6 L. J. Mccormick, they
will find machine that will work Sue
ccsstul!y-that is light, durable and SIM
pie in construclion-that cannot easily
break or get out of ordcr-will not scatter
grain between the bundles, but binds ey-
ery straw that is elevated Oh the harvester
will not kick tie bundles in their dcliv-
cry, thus landing them on their heads and
Smelling the grain, but deposits lis bun.
dies with more case than when bound by
hand can be attached to any McCor.
mick Harvester, and weighs less than the
two men required to do the binding On
the present style Of machine.
That the farmers Of Southern Minnesota
may have an opportunity TO examine this
binder. it is now intended to exhibit it at
the Southern Minnesota Agricultural and
Mcchaical Fair, to he held at Mankato,
September 28th, goth, and 30th, 1873.
It will be placed on exhibition just as it
comes from the field, together with the
harvester on which it has been operated
and upon which are some improvements
on the harvester Of the past season.
awe hope that every farmer interested
in harvesting machinery will come and
see for himself what we have to offer. We
are confident we have just what the farm
ers want and that more simple, effective
! and durable binder, cam OF be constructed.
Yours truly,
GEO. H. EREwsTER. Agent.
