ton, provided for the expulsion d
the Nichols administration and the
creation of a new State government;
and thus it subordinated a discus.
sion of the merits of the constitution
to the interest of a horde of politi.

Owing to this fact tire consultation
never was criticised and analysed
before the people. Ignoring all other
precedent, and following that set by
the Radical convention Of 1868, the
convention of 1879 identified the In.
terests and fortunes Of a horde of
candidates, from Governor down to
constable with the ratification of its
absurd and ridiculous and, in some
cases, i'll favored work, and any in
vestigation or examination of it i'm
mediately became an impossibility.
To this fact we call the attention
of our Madison contemporary
When we have convention, soon or
late, let it be elected by the people,
for in the people we trust. But when
its work is complete, let it be sub
mitted to the people on its merits,
pure and simple, and let not its
adoption or rejection be identified
with the interest Of an army of Office
seekers and. politicians.
Let its work be done in the true
Democratic spirit, and submitted to
the people in q Democratic fashion.

cause we believe 1t to DO pernicious,
and antagonistic to sound and cor.
rect business principles, and produc.
tive of great inconvenience to all
parties concerned. It is urged, bow.
ever, that credit is a necessity in
view of the habitual disregard Of
what the eccentric John Randolph
declared to be the philosophers
stone! "Pay as you CO." and that
there is no alternative. For the sake
Of argument grant then what we do
not believe, is there no means BY
which this tolerated evil can be reg.
ulated 7 As now prevalent in busi.
ness circles, the courtesy Of credit Is
claimed as right and exercised in
shch a manner that the creditor Of.
ten really considers that he receives
a boon when he gets his due. We
organize our boards OF trade, our
chambers of commerce, and ether
associations for the purpose Of Great
ing business, and utterly ignore the
fundamental and elementary princi.
pie without which business Is . bur.
den and vexasion Of spieit. It
would be far better to organize sn
association for the encouragement
of the prompt payment Of obliga.
tons than to foster organizations
for the creation Of debts by which
"some good, easy man thinks f6ll
surely his fortune 10 . ripening,"
and suddenly finds himself a bank
rupt.
The present system should be en-.
tirely changed. The debtor should
feel that he is the party who receives
the favor, and that he has no right
to delay payment, or to treat the
creditor or his collector 40 IN in.
truder when he calls for settlement
His duty to his creditor-no matter
how humble that creditor may be-
is paramount to the consideration of
the richest customer.
Every man who pretends to be q
business man, knows very well the
value of time and the importance Of
prompt settlements. What right
therefore, has one man to disappoint |
and consume another's time by max. |
ing appointments which ne does not |
fulfill, or of compelling other people |
to dance upon his sweet win and
pleasure land then sometimes grow |
angry because they do.
There would be moro profit in one |
half the volume of business, If found |
I'd on sound and correct principles, |
han is now realized on what Is call |
d a fourishing trade, but what Is
'eally q hot-bed Of panics, failures
Ind financial crises. How much |
more smoothly would the current Of
rade flow if this evil did not exist

We hold that it should be the first
object of all young persons just en-
tering upon the stage of active life,
and especially all young married
persons, to procure for themselves
the comforts of a home. What we
mean by home is that they should
if possible become the owners of
their own domiciles. There are vari-
GUS reasons why such a policy is
sound and proper. If a man owns
his dwelling, be is certain to feel at
all times and under all circumstances
more independent. The man who
has an interest in the soil upon
which he lives feels in all respects
more attached to the place that he
calls home for himself and family,
and has just cause to take more in
terest in all that partains to the po-
litical and governmental arrange
ments of the country.
Besides there is a vast comfort in
knowing that whatever befalls a
man, his wife and little ones will
have shelter and q little spot of
earth that they can call their own.
Young people going to housekeep-
ing will find that rent is about the
hardest money to pay in all the ar,
rangements Of family affairs. In
country, too like ours, there is no
better investment in the long run
than land for homestead purposes.
The man who purchases a good
farm in his younger days may feel
reasonably sure, if no unforeseen &C
cident happens, of leaving his pos
terity what may be termed well to
do in the. world. And then too it
requires so little selfdenial in our
country for man to procure a
homestead for his family.
We advise all our young friends
to keep in view these suggestions.
The true happiness Of their families
and themselves hangs upon it to q
great extent Get homes now, while
land is cheap and abundant.
