No More County Bonds.

| Mr.. Editor AS l understand there is q
strong move to have county bonds issued to
pay the school debt, and it is think the al
most unanimous wish of our Taxpayers that
1t should be paid, i. will be wise for the Leg
islature to pass an act legalizing the school
debt, yet at the same time I do not think
there is any necessity to issue bonds to pay
it, Our county has just paid off the last
of the bonds issued some years ago, and it
is proposed TO issue bonds again to the
amount of $19,500 to pay the school debt
This is large amount of bonded Indebtedness
to commence with, as no doubt If the petit
ton to the Legislature is granted it win be
the entering wedge for more bonds here
after on any reasonable excuse that may
occur. Almost every city, State and county
of any note have their bonded Indebtedness
and many persons in our county seem more
anxious to have bonds issued on the tax
payers to pay the debt than to pay 1t by di-
rect levy and thus have no county debt.
Montgomery county occupies high finan-
cial position and the less debt it has the
higher it will stand, and the better for the
present and future of our property holders.
With no debt and low taxes in the future
people with their money will come and buy
our lands. Population will increase and
property become more valuable. Why not
levy and pay the school debt in two or three
yearsg Would it not be better to levy and
pay $2,340 in two years interest than to pay
on bonds six years interest, $1,000, or even
per cent. interest, as II is said money can
be borrowed for. Let il be known that old
Montgomery is to have no debt and let that
be cardinal point in the county finances.
There are only three things for which
bonded debt should be created-war, pesti-
lence and famine. 1t is not Democratic to
pile up bonds on the taxpayers. The old
land marks are done away with and the
principles of Republican government are
not followed and bonds must be issued for
the sake of the bonds, while the best Sc
cured investments in our State are not taxed.
The greatest interest of all, the land and
farming implements are taxed and why still
saddle the agriculturists with bonds and in
terests. Better pay the school debt in yearly
payments OF two or three years, the oldest
debt first and in rotation, than to have bonds
for $19,500 and open the flood-gates of a
permanent debt GEO T. WATERS.

Columbian University.

After period of considerable gloom, the
prospects of this institution begin to brighten.
Situated at the seat of government, the Uni
versity possesses great advantages, and, for
this reason, was largely patronized by the
South before the war On the secession OF
their States, these students were, of course,
withdrawn. The patronage thus lost has
never been regained, for, at the return of
peace, the various excellent colleges in the
South claimed the support of their people.
The establishment of Richmond College was
an especially severe blow, diyerting, as 1t
did, almost all Virginia students This, ad-
though valuable, Ia unproductive, some of il
even burdensome, resulted in the financial
depression under which the University has
labored for some years Realizing the down
ward tendency, the trustees at recent
meeting, resolved upon the removal of the
college from its present position To central
portion OF the city. 1t was with regret that
they decided to leave the beautiful grounds
where the college has stood for SO manv
years, but the new plan offered several adj
vantages. Access to the various scientific
institutions in the city will thus be given to
the students in the department of science
which is soon to be. added 10 the college.
Moreover, the valuable services OF eminent
scientific men may, by this means, be OBJ
tanned. Another advantage Is the fact that
the benefit Of collegiate instruction will be
open to employees in the Government De-
parments. 1t is probable that, after the
move TO the city, extra classes will be or
ganized for this purpose, lasting from lit
tie after four, into the evening.
All of your readers, perhaps have seen
an account of Mr.. w. w. Corcoran's liber-
atty in presenting the site for the new col
lege. This is one more noble effort of that
great spirited man TO bless his race The
lot thus donated is situated at the southwest
corner of Vermont Avenue and street.
The new building will contain the college
and the law school, and the preparatory do
partment will be near the medical school,
which will remain where 1t Is. In order to
carry out these plans, some Of the college
property will be sold probably about seven
teen acres Of land lying in the rear Of the
old college building. As the remainder Of
this piece Of property is quite valuable, and
likely TO increase in worth as the city grows
larger, IL will be retained.
On the whole, the outlook for the Univer-
sty is suspicious, and we hope that a new
era OF usefulness is about 10 be inaugurated.

Is altogether two nice a style Of expressing
our peoples condemnation Of the act, that
forced our poor afflicted neighbor in the
hour Of his greatest grief, to deny the false
charge against his neighbors, when he un-
doubtedly felt more like crying out in the
pathetic words of job, "Have pity on me
all We friends, for the hand Of God has
touched me-" for he has been sorely af-
fiicted. Only three short weeks ago his
was happy household, consisting Of his
wife and two small children, but alas the
mother and one child now sleep that sleep
that knows no waking. But he has the fond
consolation OF knowing that "his great loss
is their eternal gain" for the child died be.
fore the age Of accountability, and the mother
died begging her dear friends, one and all
TO live so they may meet her in that happy
land where parting is unknown and glory
reigns forever. A FRIEND.
