The bill introduced in the Legislature,
reducing the legal rite of interest from
may be charged in contracts from ten to
eight per cent, has been indefinitely post
pnned or in other words, was lost. While
it would seem ut first that such measure
would merit II strong support, yet MS the
rates of interest are governed by the laws
of supply and demand, the act now in
force is all that is necessary to prevent
usury or cXtOrtion.

From what we have, been ahle to hear
and see, it is vety probable that the bill
granting swamp lands 10 aid in the CON.
struction of the Little Falls & Dakota rail
road. will meet with considerable opposi.
llon, not altogether from the enemies of
the enterprise, but from persons Influenced
by other causes or course We expect the
st. p, nj & NJ to oppose the measure. us
they desire to control all the trade and pre-
vent competition in the business tributary
to their lines. and it is reasonable to sup
pose they will do their utmost to defeat
the measure. Then again the st Paul and
Minneapolis delegations will oppose this
or any other enterprise that will divert
trade to other points, from territory con
tr"lled by the transportation lines centering
in these cities; however. what we lose in
this direction will he gained and offset 1T
points where our interests are identical.
Aside from this expected opposition, we
find that few of the members are opposed
| to granting state lands for railroad pur.
poses, while others desire to use these
swamp lands, in u proposed scheme for
the payment Of the old railroad bonds.
Untedly this opposition is formidable, but
it is not combined, and the very fact that
the majority of the enemies of the bills are
obliged to favor monopl and aid inter.
ested parties in preventing competition,
will do much to assist us, rs those opposed
to the granting of state lands to aid in the
construction of railroads, are disposed TO
| look ON the matter in ii different light when
they discover that our scheme is public.
not private enterprise, and We are simply
striving TO promote our hest interests by
iiberaliitg ourselves from the octopus
arms of IL giant monopoly. The friends OF
the measure are active, and meeting with
good success, but SO much remains 10 be
done that it is necessary for every one in'
terested in this enterprise, to use every
effort to secure the passage of this bill.

What Becomes of the SOapst0ne?

The Bethlehem Pa.) Tinaes says :- An alarming conundrum is agitating the country. Where does the soapstone go? From our boyhood we have known of the veins of soapstone in the hills just north of Easton. For years all projects to make them profitable failed ; but, singular to say, just about the time oleomargarine came to the front the soapstone quarries were monopo- lized; mills were leased for grinding the pot-rock, running night and day, the product shipped to New York, and then, where? It is claimed to be used in paper pulp. It may, to some extent. It is alleged to be used in hatter's felt. Perhaps SO; but where is so large an amount disposed of? Soapstone, or stealite, is combination of silica and magnesia. It is soft and greasy, and hence it is sometimes called lardstone. From it's adaptability to making vessels, in some sections it is called pot-rock. When ground, it is a soft, smooth, greasy, and almost impalpable powder. No one who has seen it in its ground state will queston it's almost diamond value for adulteration. Can- dies, sugars, four, butter, it is alleged, can be adulterated to the extent of 20 to 25 per cent. without any chance of detection.

BoycOtting a Town.

At Saumur, France, there is famous cavalry school, where cadets and subalterns are perfected in the science of horsemanship. It is 8 very aristocratic institution and nearly one thousand people are connected with it.
 Recently the school became angry at the Mayor of the town and Boycotted the place. During 8 fortnight not man, woman, or child connected with the school would enter any hotel, cafe, or shop in Saumur, or buy so much as lucifer match from any of its inhabitants.
 Two caterers were appointed by the school, and these used to go daily to fingers to buy such provisions as were wanted. In the midst of the interdict the municipal elections came on, and the dismayed inhabitants made their Mayor pay dearly for the trouble he had brought upon them. He was not actually ejected from Council, but he retreated from the fourth place he had held on the list to the twenty first, and only carried his election by few votes.
