Mr.. Secretary Of State:

the horrible attempt, committed this

a clever and intelligent subscriber
asks us what the coupons would be
worth if not made receivable iur taxes?
And if it would look like good faith, or
an intention to pay the INTEREST," Rath-
or knotty interrogatories. We would
not object to the coupon feature if the
debt had been compromised at a dis
count Of principal proportionate to the
destruction of property and general
in value. True, it is our own
experience that individuals could not
get any abatement when they have had
to pay debts contracted for property be-
fore specie resumption. The law said
the heavy decline in the price of real
estate should not operate against the
creditor-that it was the misfortune of
the debtor and not the fault Of the
creditor. The debtor had simply to
submit to the law. lie had no sovcr-
eighty to hide behind and force the
creditor to terms. Nor do We wish to
see great State use her sovereignty
contrary to what she forced upon indi-
viduals, except TO secure compromise
as suggested If the bondholders would
deduct a portion Of the principal we
could not find room to object to making
coupons receivable for taxes. But the
1908 bill, if passed, would enter into
the next election of Legislature, and
we verify believe Il majority would be
elected in opposition to it,

WHOSE BuzzARD Is IT One day
last month, on the farm of Mr.. Robert
{. Hines, near Dcchcrd, buz2ard was
discovered, sailing round with a cow
bell attached by string to its body.
Mr.. Ike Hines was building Il fence and
heard the tinkle Of the bell, but in vain
did he look into the woods around to
sec what COW at this season of the year
could make such fast time with a bell.
The noise was first one side of him, and
then the other. 1t was worse than the
cannon in the charge of the Six Hun
drcl. To make matters worse for Ike,
he had just the day before been criti-
elsing the belief of Mrs. Williams in
spirits, ghosts, and things unnatural.
Ike now thought rctribution day had
come. lie says he did not run, and we
believe him, for, turn which way he
might, he heard the bell-the buzzard
Kept sailing round. There was no way
'orun, and he was not disposed to ,imi-
tate the ostrich by thrusting his head in
10 a hole, under the belief that he would
be secure. AT last, when he had pcered
into the woods with more anxiety and
lear than Edgar A. Poe when looking
INTO darkness upon the occasion of the
raven, he finally looked up and d:scov-
Sfed the carniverous bird in question,
with the bell attached. We are not
warming. Some one had fastened the
Oell to tue buzzard, and for two days ii
was sailing in "promiseuous space, and
Vngl'ng the bell at each "hop" of its
wings. We hope no one has become
alarmed and will believe that the work
seeming to IN "tnd' this year.
