CORPORATE CONTRACTS.

4 decision has been rendered by the New
Hampshire Supreme Court which has an inn
portant bearing upon questions that are con-
stantly arising in the conduct of corporations.
A contract between the Concord road and
Northern roads was held invalid because direct
ors Of one corporation were also directors of
the other on the ground that a director cannot
buy of himself, sell to himself or contract with
himself. The tone Of the decision is that it
makes no difference whether the contract i Just
and mutually advantageous or not; the same
men cannot lawfully act "a directors of both
parties. If this is the law, then the law ought
to be changed without delay. The decision, as
reported, proceeds upon the assumption that
the interests of parties to a contract must nee
cssarily be antagOnistic. But this assumption is
la fact unfoundcd In a great majority Of cases,
the interests of both parties are promoted by
agreements made.
IT is very common but a very stupid blmdcr
to suppose that there is any real antagOnism of
interest between buyer and seller between en-
ployrr and employed, or between two parties to
a business contract. As rule, business can OK
ist only where both parties are benefited. The
buyer gets as low price rs he could get any
where else and the seller as high price rs Inc
could get anywhere else, and each gets what lac
wants more than what he gives. Otherwise
there would be no trade. The employer is
benefited by hiring, and the cmployc by being
hired otherwise there would be no bargain.
The two parties to any contract, whether indi-
viduals or corporations, are almost always both
benefited thereby. Shallow dcmagogucs work
upon the prcjudiccs of laborcr or employer, of
buyer or seller, where they can, but it is the al
most universal rule in business transactions
that both parties derive real benefit, and n
greater benefit than they could get at the time
in any other way.
The people who own most Of the stock of Il
corporation are, a. "A rule, interested in common
with other stockholders in its success. Where
they are not, where they have other and antago-
nistc interests, it is proper enough to set up
that fact as ground of complaint. The direct
Ors, as a rule are large owners. Presumably,
they consult their own interests In common
with those of other owners. When the same
people are really the chief owners In two cor
pOratiOns, there is no reason why they should
not become directors of both, aud if any proper
contract advantageous to both parties can be
made, there is no reason under the sun why
they should not make it. If directors make
contract that is contrary to the interests of other
stockholders, because they have larger interests

FRUITS or DEMoOR A1IC HARMONY.

When the property owners of tins city pay
their tax bills next year they will reap some OF
the fruits of the harmony that prevailed III the
Democratic party at the last election. The IN
crease in the tax-ratc this year is mere fore
taste of what may be expected in 1881. The
total appropriation for conducting the business
of the city this year was $50, 503,535, an in
crease over 1882 of $l,1s0,7O4 But for 1854
the department heads ask an addition of about
81, 500, 900 to the sum appropriated for 1888.
The Board of Estimate and Apportionment Is
now considering the budget; but, unfor-
tunatcly, there is too much Democratic harmony
there TO EXPECT any great reduction in the csti-
mates. In the days when Mayor Cooper
watched the appropriations made Tor Iammany
departments and Controller Kelly insisted on
cutting down the estimates of the antl-Iam-
many branches of the City Government the tax
PAYERS rcapcd some benefit from the dlscord.
Now, however, there is a harmonious majority III
the Board of Estimate and Apportionmcnt and
the outlook is not favorable for the tax
payers.
Notwithstanding the large increase i'll the
total appropriation made for 1883 over
that of the previous year it does not rep
resent all the additional expenditures.
Large sums have been transferred, by the
Board of Estimate and ApportiOnmcnt, from
uucypcndcd balances of former years This has
been carried so far that an uncNpcndcd balance
left when Tweed wa, at the head of the Depart
mcnt Of Public Works-and before the Board OF
Estimate and Apportionmcnt was organized
has been transferred to the use of the present
Commissioner. But still more pcrnicous
precedent waS c>tabli>hcdhy the Board on Thurs
day in making an appropriation from tho tax
levy of lso 10 meet an expenditure to be made
this year. This j, the lirst time since the or
ganiaton of the Board that such q course has
been followed and no matter how worthy the
object the precedent once established cannot
help but do harm.

cratic rulers, The largest item Of increase,
81 ,O33, 5o7, i, to meet the additional State tax
imposed on the city by Democratic Lcglsla-
tuc. The amount of increase in the estimates
Of some of the departments is a. follows: Pub
lie Works. Sl9s, 1870; Parks $3.50. 800 Chair
ties and Correction, $GOl,G27; Health,
Sg77,592; Police, $ljTSS3; Street Clean
ing, Sls4,537; Fire, SlOO,379; and Board
OF Aldermen. $500. The Sheriff wants
$2I,3OO additional, because Of a law passed
by the last Legislature transferring city
prisoners to the care of the wrctchcdly managed
Ludlow Street Jail. Tho Aldermen want
$4,000 for contingent expenses and additional
sums to maintain clerk, in idlcncss. All OF the
department, ask for increased appropriation,
for salaries, supplies and other things which
will BE- useful to carry Presidential election.
The taxpayers will watch with interest the
course of the Board of Estimate and AppOrtion-
mcnt in its consideration of these cxtrayagant
estimates.

OHJO-OFTYCI1L RESULTS.

The official returns Of the election in Ohio
show that the vote was a very large one for any
other than Il Presidential electiOn-thc largest
indeed, ever cast except in 1SsO-but still it
was not a full vote by about 10000. The in
crease of population since 1850 would bring the
total vote up to about 100000, and the aggrc-
gate of votes pollcd this year was 721,4G4.
The vote for HOadly was about 10000 larger
than the vote for Hancock, but about 300 Of
the increase may have been due to the transfer
of votes from the Grecnback to the Democratic
ticket The vote for Foraker was about -, 900
less than the vote for Garfield, but the increase
of vote for the Prohibition ticket may account
for about 5, 700 of that loss. Thus, apart from
the votes for the minor tickets, the Democrats
gained about 300, and the Republicans lost
about %, 800, which indicates that the liquor
question may have caused a change of $4,000
to $4,000 votes. That these voters will be
found acting with the Democrats in a Presi
Dental contest the leading Republicans of the
State do not believe, and if only half of them
should return to their former party associations,
the State would give Republican majority.
The prohibitory amendment polled 32l, 1S9
