To the Editor Of the Ledger:
! have watched with much interest the
discussions Of late concerning this I'm

the prsss. Aud while nothing that !

will, I dare say. strengthen the views so
ably expressed hsre snd elsewhere in
the state or change what seems to be
regarded as a foregona conclusion With
our legislature repeal of the ten per
cent interest law-Jet I have thought il
not amis' to give brief history Of toe
u'pry laws in other countries.
Some years ago when a college student
and elassmats OF the Hon, J A. Trous-
dale, the present ehairGan Of the finance
committee, Z class vas formed Into a
Legislature for the purpose of instruction
in this branch Of government. A bill
was introduced into the senate for the
purposeo Of sbolishingt the ststutsa agA;ual
usury. Ia my zeal to maintain the
affirmative Of the proposition, l gave the
anhiect a very thorough investigation

and cases dieeassip1 The qsgEy laws from

i%nstion, ripened into a vsll founded
judgment, with impressions as irradics.
BILE as were the copyictous Of Cato that
Carthage must be destroyed OF the
moral aspect will not treat further than
to saT that neither the Old nor the New
Testament. IA my judgment, fotbid, but
rather approve Of q receiving a com.
pensstion for the use Of that which ia
loaued-usury.
Ia Deuteronomy, xiii, 10, 20, the Jew
is commanded not to lend upon usury
money, victuals or anything to his
brother, but ola stranger he might
charge any smoun he desired, no limit
beiug fixed. There is nothing strange or

The Biil IN Regard TO Counting TIE
electoral VOte-Sherman's Views.
WASHINGTON, January 23.-In the
Senate petitions wers presented from
Philadelphia, Pittsbnrg and 81. Louis
praying the passage Of the bill presented
by the joint commission on counting the
electoral vote.
Consideration was then resumed OF
unfinished business aud the bill 10 re.
gard to counting the electoral vote, and
Mr. Sherman spoke in opposition to it.
He said that when the select commission
was appointed to consider this subject,
he expected as a matter of course to
be able to vote for the bill reported by
the commission, because he entertained
highest respect for the members of the
commission. 1t was painful for him to
dissent from the views of men whom he
esteemed so highly, but after a brief ex-
animation he had given the measure he
thought it vas his duty to oppose it.
Tdis bill vas to make a court to decide
a Gaze already made up, aud there we're
provisions in it incompatible with the
constitution. Such a Law as this was
an evil example, and it could not
be sustained under the constitution.
The question heretofore discussed had
been; First shall the president of the
senate count the vote; second, a either
house admit or exclude a vote; third,
can both houses coucurring, do so; and
fourth. a the Vice-P resident decide if
the two houses disagree.

articles are written in a spirit OF

We shall not be surprised to hear
next that some eminent Bohemian
doubts the shower Of fresh beef

year or 50 ago; or that Casa
blanca stood on the burning deck.
1t is surprising, when we probe hu-
man nature, how much skepticism
there is in the world. Just because
snakes do not usually streak the
sky when a thunder storm comes on
and because they expect to find the
reptiles in rocks, trees, cages or
boots, the iconoclasts make merry
and say, Aha, ahai jim-iams, jim

Memphis has got ahead of them;
that is another motive besides fun
and skepticism for discrediting the

nature to this locality. Then the

events Of the age. If the New

country paper away out west Of

Of wit, science or grammar, they
find it. All this is very discour-
aging to well-meant endeavor.

TIE SENATORIAL BATTLE-GROUND
The Avalanche takes Keys de-
feat very much to heart, even a
we regret, from a very differen'
standpoint, to see General Bate g
down. But there is this difference
VIZ can be comforted; our neighbOl
cannot. The circumstance is rem
dered the more distressing because
the Avalanche cannot find any
thing to say against Bailey, except
that he favored high State credit:
which is a local issue that does not
properly come in the range of this
discussion. He has no political
record more than Key or any good,
quiet, successful lawyer IN the
State fifty years Of age. He is not
a Bourbon, not an impracticable
or a broken down politician. If
the truth was all told it would APP
pear that Mr.. Bailey was not
an original secessionist and
that he was an Old Line
Wing Of the Henry Clay school.
He never in his life, that we know
of, made a foolish or incendiary
speech. His appearance in the
senate will not be an occasion for
raising the bloOdy-shirt or firing
the Northern or any other heart.
In point of ability he is superior ia
Mr.. Key, as most of the leading
lawyers Of the State would admit
in conservatism, prudence and
sound judgment he is the peer OF
Key or any man in the State. and
as for his political orthodoxy, we
greatly prefer him over MI. Key
General Bate has served his party
faithfully and effectively. he has
been ready at all times to labor for
its success, aud in doing SO has al
ways been consistent and true to
the high principles which animate
the patriot and the good citizen.
But the very fact that he had
been useful, jealous and vigilant
male him rivals and enemies.
When he became elector at large
the friends Of other aspirants be-
came set against him. 1t may be
useless to DISCUSS this question now,
except for the lessons that can be
learned from viewing the wrecks
that strew the ground where con-
tending forces lately fell upon
each other. The Avalanche eivs
that East Tennessee is lost to the
Democratic party. Whether this
is a matter OF exultation or of re-
regret if it should prove true, we
need scarcely inquire. Itmakes no
material difference what county or
corner of the State a senator comes
from SO he is a good one. East
Tennessee had II monopoly Of
United States senator several years,
while West Tennessee had none.
Mr.. Key lives in the lower end Of
that section, and was as little known
outside Of a county or two to the
people up there as Mr.. Bailey, who
ia not an entire stranger to them.
When they know him better they
will become reconciled to the
change. Four years from now all
hands can try it over. Inasmuch
as every mans fagorite could not be
successful, and as one of our favor.
