THE $40 CERTIFICATES.
Another Sale Yesterday on the Pooling
Plan and All Quiet.

Another Sale Yesterday on the Pooling.
Plan and All Quiet.
Postmaster Day had another entertain
ment at the postof6ce yesterday. as he had
$45,0O0 in the ten dollar refunding certifi-
Gates for sale. As on the occasion of the
last sale the banks pooled their issues, hav-
ing SO me forty or fifty men IN line who were
supplied with badges. The sale was made
through window in the postmaster's room,
the crowd being in the alley in the rear of
the building. A policeman was on hand to
preserve order, though there was little oc-
casion for his services.
AS the wearer of a badge reached the win
dow q bank clerk handed him an envelope
containing $1OO.69, the 60 cents representing
the accrued interest. Upon making the pur-
chase the buyer would hand his ten $40
certificates to another bank clerk, who
counted them, and in turn handed them to
a third clerk, who deposited them in trunk.
The buyer would then return to the foot of
the line to take another turn, and buy q
second 500 worth. This was repeated
until at 11:15 A. M, when the stock was ex-
hausted, and each man received 81 for his
two hours buying capacity. Later in the
day the banks divided their purchases in
proportion to their capital.
The crowd was not of such proportions
yesterday as to prevent actual investors from
obtaining all they desired, but there were
very few investors. Here and there was q
man in line without badge, but even he wal
probably employed by some outside specu-
lator. In fact the people have not got the
money to lend to the government at foul
per cent or any other rate, and it is only
for the fact that the New York syndicate has
the county banks by the throat that such
rules can be effected. Any one who hat
ten dollars, or hundred dollars to loan the
government at less rate OF in
terest than money is worth, need
not worry about an opportunity. III
can be accommodated to almost any exten
in spite OF the purchases which the bank
are making as matter of self defense.
The proceeds of yesterdays sale, tegethe
with the partial proceeds of premium sales
amounting to over $50, 900, were forwarded
to the sub treasury at New York, by Post
master Day last evening. It's not definite
ly known whether yesterdays sale closed tn
series or not, but DR.. Day is of the impree
sion that an additional and final sale wi
take place towards the last of the week.

for the purpose mainly of making per-

new work, and also to introduce Messrs. ;,

Porter, of the West Wisconsin railroad, and
other railroad dignitaries, will reach st.
Paul, when the final determination of

deep interest, may be confidently ex-
pected.
The Other Side of the Monticello Shooting.
o. X. Chance, the young lawyer of
Monticello who shot and wounded Miss
Hitter of that place, few days ago,
denies having been in close proximity
to the girls when he fred at them, and
also denies knowing at the time whether they
were girls, boys or men. He says there we're
bars for fastenings to his windows, and that
on the night in question his wife awakened
him, saying the bars were down, and that
somebody was rapping or at work upon the
window. He seized his revolyers end rushed
out to intercept whoever the intruders might
be, and saw an object about twenty yards
away. He says the object came towards him
to within about three rods, when he told them
to stop. They then turned and fled. and he
after them; but they being the feetest OF
foot gained upon their pursuer until he gave
up the race, and merely to frighten them
fred shot after them, which unfortunately
took effect, as before narrated. He claims
that the jury that tried his case at the pre-
liminary examination would not let hin
make statement or listen to his story.

CERTIFICATE SELLING.-Secretary Sher-
man saved forty millions of his last four
per cent loan so us to put it on the market
in way that small investors could get it
Certain regulations were made limiting
the amount to be sold to any one person
but capitalists have all over the country
stepped in and made farce of the whole
transaction. All the regulations have
amounted to is to prevent the government
from getting the market premium and to
enable capitalists to gobble up what was
intended for u popular loan.
In the cities hundreds would stand in
line for hours and but few were investing
for themselves, the great number buying
for spectators. So the secretary has
lately ordered no more to be sold in the
cities being still in hopes that by multiply
ing the places Of sale small investors will
have more chance. But with present reg
ulations this order will not meet its object
for the men who have the most money
whether in city or village are the ones
who are on the sharpest lookout for more
money.
About $4,000 worth of certificates was
sold in Montpelier last week. The Mont
pclier National Bank bought most of them
through its agents; and considerable talk
was made Friday over the fact that Wal.
lace ". Noyes took money of Andrew
Hodgden to buy ten certificates with and
then refused to give them up, trick that
has been an incident of the main farce
wherever the latter has been played.

Next Friday will be observed Through
olt the north in decorating the graves of
the dead soldiers of the Union.
Year by year this observance grows
more dear to those whose companions the
dead were, and to the fathers. mothers,
sisters, brothers and children of the dead.
Nor does this feeling confine itself to
those who have personal knowledge of the
buried soldiers. Nor is it directed alone
towards those who persisted in the war tc
save the Union.
The men who fought in the revolution
those who repealed the assaults of Other
nations after the Union was established us
well us those who died in preserving the
nation from destruction by rebellion share
in the honor of the day.
1t is a day sacred TO all who have died
for their country on whatever field they
gave their blood and should bring with it
increased love and loyalty to the nation
they founded and preserved,
