PUBLIC DEBT REDUCTION

The reduction Of the public debt
for May, this year, was A.6l7,fOO
against s2,7sl, 200 for April, and
sl,le9,000 for May, last year. The
total reduction for the first eleven
months Of the fiscal year ending July
LIST, has been ga, 1865, 900, against
1895, 900 for the same period last
year
For June the reduction is 1881
1896, making ss,498, 1917 for the two
months last past. This is paying off
at the rate of over 800 per minute
not quite so fast though as it
was run up, which, during the last
campaign of the war, was at the rats
Of about 81 400 per minute or 3d..
100000 per day.
The amount CT currency i'll the
treasury is sl30,O04,l4l; of coin
balance and coin certificates, sl02, =
3O9,984. The total amount Of legal
tenders now outstanding is $685.
772,284. The total reduction for
tho fiscal year ending July I'd, is
s29, 249, 48l, and the entire amount
of the national debt at the present
time is so, 099, 1884.
At the close of the war the debt
was about 80, 800, 600, 600 or nearly
three thousand millions. Hence the
reduction in the eleven years that
have passed has been about $780,
5000. or near one fourth. If the
same rates Of taxation had been
maintained AZ during the years fol-
lowing the war, it would not take
many years to throw off the whole
Of this great incubus. Of course as
the principal is melted down, the in
terest account dwindles; and besides
the interest rate has, not long since
been reduced from six per cent. to
four and onc-half. However the
policy has been to cut down taxation
as rapidly as possible, and be con-
tent with slow and regular reduc.
ton Of the debt. And doubtless
this, all things considered, is the
wisest policy. Notwithstanding, its
inconvenience, the debt is the ma.
tons best safeguard against rash
future wars, and guaranty of its
moderation and conservative policy.
The debt in itself is an evil sufficient
ly great. but since it exists, it is
probably better for more reasons
than one to provide for its gradual
extinction, by slow and easy meas
ures. than attempt its hasty removal
by exhaustive taxation.

FRETGHTING.

1t is a matter of general regret that SO
much difficulty has attended the shipping
and forwarding interests Of the Territory
this season. The steamers made every pre-
paration for an early start from St. Louis,
but were delayed in loading, by bad wealth
ar, and when well on their way their course
was impeded by lee and low stage Of
water The Key-West and Benton, how
ever, surmounted these obstacles and land
ed their cargoes, neat and clean as when
they were received, at an earlier period of
the season than goods were ever delivered
at Benton in former years. The freight
was promptly received and forwarded, but
before the trains had got well under way
the late fearful rainstorm. swept over the
country, raised the creeks and streams, de-
nolished bridges, and left the roads near
ly impossible for man or beast. Delays
from similar causes occurred on the
Corinne ronte. Trains were at first delay
ed BY accumulated snow, and later by the
same storms that damaged the Benton
road.
But while these misfortunes are to be
regretted for the serious losses they have
caused to the freighting and mercantile m
interests of the Territory, there is reason
to believe that under the circumstances
they might have been much worse, 1t the
Carroll route, for instance, had been IN
operation this season, it IS quite probable
that portion of the goods now only tenn
porarily delayed between Helena and Ben
ton would have been washed away with the
town of Carroll, or if the Diamond E
Company had been successful enough 70
get them away from that ill-fated place,
they would now, no doubt, be securely
nired in the Bad Lands, to remain there
nnti1 the SHOWS of next fall and winter had
raised an insurmountable barrier between
them and their destination. 1t is hardly
necessary to mention the disastrous results
that might have ensued If our people had
been insane enough to have patronized the
proposed Yellowstone route. That rldicu
lous enterprise has resulted precisely a:
the RECORD has time and again predicted
it would, and we are still of the opinion
that the Yellowstone Navigation Company
80 called, never seriously intended to rur
heir boat to any other point than that 2
Benton yet liberal patronage might have
induced them to make some show Of IS
cending the Yellowstone river, and the ct
fort would perhaps have cost them the boa
md her cargo.
The reverses encountered by the freight
ing interest this season have undoubtedl
been very serious but if they should hay
he effect Of further impressing the peopl
of the Territory with the urgent necesslt
Of railroad between Helena and Benton
and prompt them to immediate action ae
ton in that direction, these misfortune
may eventually prove to be nothing wors
than blessings in the disguise Of calam
ties.

BuLLwHACKERs ON THE RAMPAGE

II is generally conceded now that Ben

would-be hard cases to exhibit their wick
ed propensities. Through the prompt and
efficient manner in which the local laws
are administered by energetic and eompe-
tent county officials, our town has become
within the past year comparatively peace

"old timers" come among US occasionally,
however, and either through ignorance of
pure cussedness are unable to realize the
commendable change that has taken place,
until forcibly reminded Of the fact by the
tender grasp of our gentle sheriff and the
Questionable luxury of-a nights lodging

Rowe, we're at the time enjoying that soune
slumber which is said to be characters

their own way for awhile. They marched

very mean generally. The two sheriff

Important to the Travelling Public.
It is the duty of all persons before start
ing on q journey to ascertain by what route
they can reach their destination with the
least possible trouble, and if there are two
or more roads leading to the same point,
to decide which is the safest and pleasant
est TO travel.
We take pleasure in stating that The chi
cAGo & NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY is the
Oldest, and several miles the shortest, route
between Omaha and Chicago. Within the
past two years the road has been put IN
admirable condition, and almost the entire
Inc has been relaid with steel rails.
The Depot in Chicago is centrally loea-
ted, and as their trains arrive there thirty
minutes IN advance of all other lines, pas
sengers can always be sure ofmaking Eas-
tern connections. For all points in North
ern and North Eastern Iowa, you should
purchase tickets via Marshall, Cedar Rap
ids, or Clinton. For points in Northern
illinois or Wisconsin, via Fulton; and II
you are going to Chicago, or East, yon
should, by all means, purchase your tickets
by the Old Pioneer Route
The CHIcAGo L NoRTH-W EsrERE.
You will find on all through trains Pull
man Sleepers, new and magnificent Day
Coaches, and the best Smoking and Second
Glass Cars now on any road in the United
States.

Mr.. DAsIEL F. BEATTY, manufacturer
and proprietor of the Beatty Piano and
Beatty's celebrated Golden Tongue farlor
Organs, Washington. n. J, is certainly a
very reasonable and generous man to
transact business with. He makes this
very fair proposition to any who may favor
him with an order, as follows: "Ifthe in
strnment does not prove satisfactory after
a test trial of FIVE days after receiving it
the purchase money will be refunded upon
the return of the instrument, and he will
pay freight charges both ways" This is
certainly an exceeding, generous, and
safe manner in which to transact business
with him. He warrants his instruments
for six years. See his advertisement.
