nu4tb VI ACaA AshtNt%s
A petition is being circulated at Bar
nesyille and vicinity praying the legisla.
ture Of Ohio to pass stay law OF two
years on debts secured by mortgage. The
Eaiapris. warmly advocates the passage
Of such a law, and says that had II been
10 force during the past year thousands
Of families now in poverty and misery
might have been able to work through
their troubles"
The Monroe county 0Gs.4s draws a
dark picture OF tho state Of thinSsin that
county among the farmers. We quote
FROM IT, article as follOws:
~tlooks like Il great portion Of the
land OF this county was TO be sold at
shsrisi's sale, from what has already been
advertised and offered, and from the
number OF petitiona for foreclosures Of
mortgages that will DO heard the next
term OF the Court OF Common PleAE,
after which there will DO another large
crop Of sheritf's sales. II is financial fun
for tho sheriff and printers, but death 10
those who are being sold out 10 Guern'
Sey county the farmers are making as
signments and committing suicide, while
10 this county they are being sold out for
debt. What's the matter! EVeryIhings
the matter. Real eatate and other prop.
erty has depreoiated il value, the prices
Of tobacco, bogs, cattle, etc, bring moth.
ing, and The Consequence Is that the reo'
pie are getting deeper and deeper In debt
BY paying usurious interest and heavy
taxes until some creditor gets uneasy and
starts the ball in motion 10 clean out the
debtor, when everybody whom he owes
crowds In on him, his property is sacrl-
hced at forced sale aud be is compelled
10 commence the struggle'ot life anew"
Itseems strange to read such accounts
as the above in regard tosthe condition Of
our Delshboripg farming interests,in view
Of The fact that the last two yeara have
been regarded "a period OF exceptional
prosperity for the agricultural interests
Of the country. II, however, what Is re.
corded above waa true only OF the limited
area Of territory represented by the pa.
pers we quote, tho subject would not be
one Of such general interest as it really
becomes by virtue Of the fac. that the
remarks Of Ihs1s paperI apply to other
sections OF tho country. Il Ii said
tha. there Is heavy amount Of
indebtedness among tho farmers Of the
wesL aud that, \. in Monroe county,
many OF them are being constantly sold
out under foreclosures to satisfy debIa
which they contracted before the panic.
I. isthis indebtedness Of the farming class
that initiates so much against a rsstora-
ton Of better times. No one need look
for prosperous days as long as such a
state Of debt and insolvency continues.
Who Ia to buy the products Of our iaost-
rles and the contents Of our stores when
the farmers as classsbeoomO unable to
purchassl Tho country can only do a
limited businO.I under such clrcum-
stances. Hence, even with good crops
this year, and a good demand for them
from abroad, We can not hope to do a
very large business.

A private letter from an accurate observ-
er who has good rain-guage, shows that
Wednesday night, July 10th, five and one
fourth inches of rain fell inside of twelve
hours. In the afternoon and night of the
1lth, four and three-fourths inches more Of
rain fell, making ten inches in forty hours.
Again last Sunday evening and Monday
morning the floods came, adding three and
one-fourth inches to the preceding. Crops,
roads, bridges and other property was great
lv damaged.

SOME INSIDE HISTORY.

The interior department is in receipt Of
information of an official nature, from In
dian Commissioner Hayt, to the effect that
the published accounts Of fraud at Grow
Creek agency are true. Inasmuch as the
papers in the case were sent from Grow
Creek to the interior department at Wash
ington early last April, it seems unnecessary
for the Indian commissioner to come all the
way to Dakota to find out that of which the
original evidence, if any there be, is on file
at the department. The outcome of his
late visit to the Indian country makes us
think that he has skipped over the docu-
mentary testimony alleged to have been
placed in his hands months ago, andis send
ing these damaging statements to headquar-
ters wholly upon the strength of assertions
made by Hammond and Dougherty.
That the former is not . competent wit
ness we do not hesitate to assert. His acts
at times are much like the acts of an insane
person, and here in this community, where
he has been we'll known for over year, a
general impression exists that Hammond is
not sound in mind. 1t is singular fact
that the traders who have suffered removals
ae Hammond's hands are as class those
who have been approached by him with in
direct propositions for gifts Of robes, furs
OF ponies, and have not responded
by sending in gratuitous offerings. We
mention in the list of traders who have been
given opportunities for adding to Ham
mond's store Of robes and furs, or Of placing
in his possession valuable Indian ponies
the names of Clarkson, Hudson and Robb
Each one of these gentlemen has been de
prived of his leadership.
In the case Of Capt. Dougherty there is {
motive for the position he has assumed, and
that motive Is personal revenge. Both Liv
ingston and Gregory grievously offended
him some time ago, and his vindictive ma
ture has prompted the retaliation We arr
now Witnessing. He saw in the errati'
Hammond 4 tool whom he could use, ant
right we'll has he utilized the material in hi
hands. Dougherty's attack has been direct
ed against all the civil attaches of Brul'
and Grow Creek agencies for the reason tha
all we're friends of the men whom he sough
to destroy. Hammond was previously pre-
|judiced against both Livingston and Grego
~ becasse they were the appointees Of tn
Epi.copal church. and very little encour

agcment from Dougherty induced him Ia
make the move for their ruin llc llaS bce,
openly hostile 10 the church ever since his
arrival in Yankton us superintendent Of the
Dakota Indiana. He ehas frequently asserted
that he would break up the power of that
organization and the pursuit Of this inten.
tion soon became the ruling mania
Of his waking hours. Bishop Hare was the
leading and special object of his enmity and
the slightest suspicion within HIM furnished
an imaginary clue to evils beyond, which
were followed with all the strange infatuation
Of mind diseased. DR.. Livingston, the
favorite agent of the church and the people,
a man whose affairs have always, as far as
known, been conducted in the most exempla
~ manner, became, at an early day, SUBJ
ject Of aversion and distrust with Hammond,
who has operated from the beginning with
the purpose of breaking him down. He has
said that if he could not convict Livingston
he would ruin his reputation, and from the
shape that matters have taken it appears
that he is ready to be satisfied with the lat.
ter punishment.
These then are the men upon whose state.
ments Commissioner Hayt relies so implic-
ity that he gives them to the world unsub.
stantiated. These are the men 80 pure il,
thought and deed that their charges are &C.
cepted as the incarnation of truth, while the
men against whom they are directed are
denied the privilege Of introducing evidence
i'll rebuttal. Mr.. Hayt may believe that
their assertions are sufficiently we'll backed
up to render them unassailablc, but it is Ger.
certainly as incumbcrent upon high officials
as it is upon their more humble fellow beings
accept and act upon the we'll established
principle that every man is innocent until
he is proven guilty. =,

A New York court has decided that a
Chinaman is neither white enough nor black
enough to vote. The early laws upon this
subject permitted the naturalization of
white citizens, and the later notifications
have been in favor of the blacks or persons
of African birth or blood. The Chinese are
neither one nor the other, and cannot, there.
fore, be naturalized.
