rover into the hands of the most ra-

lenders, and foster a disposition to
make light of statutory enactments. All
such legislation is in the line of paternal
government. There is no more justifca-
ton for the interference of the Legislature
with the making of loans than there is with
the purchase of dry goods or groceries or
bread OF meat. If men are presumably
competent to transact the far weightier
affairs which the law leaves them free to
manage, they are presumably competent to
borrow and lend without governmental SUI
pervision. Such interference never has
accomplished the least good, and as We
have shown, and as all experience proves,
it has produced evil and injurious results,
and especially to the borrower. Whatever
tends to increase the difficulties of borrow
ing enhances the embarrassments of all who
are in business difficulties. That fact alone
ought to settle the fate of all propositions
for usury laws.

uSURY LAWS.

The San Mateo Journal comes to us this
week with an article urgently demanding
the enactment of usury law. Our con-
temporary appears to entertain the belief
that such law would be in the interest OF
the borrower, and he fortifes himself by
reference to the fact that the Legislature
Of New York has recently enacted a statute
of the kind. Unfortunately it is always
easy to find precedents for foolish legisla.
ton. Usury laws have been put and kept
On the statute books of fourteen or fifteen
States of the Union, but the first evidence
OF their utility has yet to be discovered,
while all who have studied the question
know that their effect is mischievous. In
order to demonstrate the fallacy OF usury
laws it is only necessary to consider the
conditions which govern money lending.
Money is loaned at interest because its
possessors believe they can make it yield
more in that way than in any other,
and with less risk. When the market
is free, therefore, the supply of capital
for such purposes is most likely to be
ample; and when the supply of capital is
largest the borrower is enabled to make the
best terms. But if the law reduces the
rate of interest below that Of an unfettered
market, the first result will be to divert
from that market whatever capital can
find better returns in other investments,
and thus the opportunities OF the borrower
will be diminished. Again, the reduction
of the rate of interest must injure the
necessitous borrower by cutting off en-
tirely avenues of relief which are now open
to him. For it frequently happens that
the urgency of a mans pecuniary need
Is greatest precisely when he is least able
to give good security. Now, under the
operations of natural conditions it is posi-
bic for the borrower in these circumstances
to obtain the money he wants by paying
extra for the lenders extra risk. But
under an usury law the lender would be
prohibited from etfecting this kind of in
surance, and therefore he would refuse to
lend at all, and SO the law would render
the condition of the necessitous borrower
worse than ever, Usry laws, in fact, al
ways react upon the people they are in
tended to benefit, and the idea that they
are in the interest of borrowers is wholly
unwarranted. But in practice it is proved
that such laws are eluded, for when men
need money, and statute stands in the
way of obtaining it, they can always find
means to clrcumvent it. The only effect
of the law at such times is to put power in
the hands of the least scrupulous class of
money-lenders, and to enable the latter to
extort larger interest from the extremity
of the borrower than could be obtained in
an open market

A BOOM FOR wAsuBURSE.
SEVERAL THINGS.

The hard times in the county is agra
waited, by the fact that there is no sale for
real estate, except in the city of Port
land. Salem property cannot be sold at
any price, and probably the same is true of
every town, almost, in the Willamette
Valley, for the people are poor beyond any
former year. Trade is dull; everybody
tries to live on less than ever, and tie
farmers are discussing the nsed of reduced
taxation, and better organization to pro-
tect their own interests.
There is, as Yet, no visible movement in
politics. TIE Democratic State Central
Committee met the other day and did
nothing Of any importance. The most i'm
portant points l know of in politics is,
that whereas the strength OF the o. :. n.
Co. has OF late years been supposed to
actively sympathize with the Democracy, it
will. it is said, not do so hereafter. 1t will
be a great loes to that party If 1t remains
passive.
A good fleet OF vessels is now due-at least
twenty, / should suppose-but the long
continued storm has made it very uncom-
Portable passing the bar, and few have done
so since Christmas So many vessels due
lead to the expectation that freigbts viii
decline. 1t is probable that the wheat suy-
plus will not quite equal expectations.
The loss was terrible. and it is very likely
that ardent spectators have moderated it.

passed over this section of country to-day.
1t commenced about 10 A. NJ. and ceased its
force about 2 P. N. The direction was from
the south and southwest. In town signs were
blown down, windows smashed in, branches
of shade trees broken, roofs blown off and
small out-houses blown over. In the country
the damage was manly confined to fences
and timber, though some barns were unroofed.
The tall fir trees are lying in every direction.
The mail stage did not arrive until three
hours after time. 1t was the most severe
