Business Failures for Six Months


NEW YoRK, June 30.-The mercantile
failures for the six months ending to-day
are reported by X. G. Dun & Co. as
G,00f, as against 1910 for the first six
months Of 1884, an increase of 49i. In
liabilities, however, there is a marked
%diminuition, the amount being for the
first half of 1885 $4,000 900, as against
1924, 000, 900 in the first six months Of
1854. In a circular announcing these sta
tistics the fact is dwelt upon that an in-
crease in the failures OF less than 500
among the number of traders reported by
this agency-now over 1000, 000-is not
surprising, while their diminishing fail
ures, as shown by the low aggregate and

EDUCATION AND PROHIBITION.

Two convictions seems to have come upon
our people, one that an educated man can
make more money and live easier than an
ignorant man, the other is to have u lot of
drunken and desperate men dourishipg their
revOlyers on all occasions, aud much lerger
lot of half drunken negroes banging around
the country stores, throwing high dice for
each Others pay tickets, api reporting sick
wounded or missing In the cane or cotton
field Monday is dead loss This has become
an economical proposition affecting soIaaYhat
the attractive value Of their lands and the
prospective products VI their labor. We do
not think this popular conviction il based on
the immortality of drinking OF abstract love of
learning. Without questioning at all the right
OF every ono to use spirituOus liquors, there
can be no doubt OF the legal authority to pro
tect society against abuse of that right as
against public and dangerous exhibit of
dynamite, or the indiscrimInate circulation Of
aperson with snlall-pox fever upon him. The
restricted use OF Intoxicating liquors is a
measure for the protection Of sdciety and
whether the individual nse is moral or I'M.
moral does not enter into the question OF social
safety At ell. The common law maxim that
every one may % use his own rights as not to
interfere with the rights Of another applies to
the keeper of y barrel hOnAe Is well ss 10 the
powder magazine. let W have schools to
teach useful industries aud 40 restrict the
popular use OF liquors TINT il can do no harm
to any except 10 the unfortunate victim who
may prefer that mode of allow suicide.-lN. o.

Preaching has become so dffusive
and discursive, that the" Man OF God" has
turned lecturer and politician, and some-
times mountebank in his, pulpit He is a
sort of Jack at all trades, with universal
license to attack all things at all places
and at all times and none dare say "what
doeth thou?" and all because he is a
preacher. This wide latitude of privi.
lege and consequence, is bringing both
preachers and religion into contempt.
As a sample OF what We have said we
presenta specimen from Chicago paper:
A singular sermon was delivered last
Sunday by one OF tie ablest clergymen
of Chicago, in which he asserted that
poverty is increasing, that the fault is
with the rich and that dynamite is per.
haps the only.agent which can produce
that ideal society III which there is great
poverty and no excessive wealth. In the
course of his dynamite declaration, the
pious preacher asserted that the addition
Of machinery had not increased the
welfare Of the laboring classes, aid that
the tendency Of things is to make the
rich richer and the poor poorer. There
are thousands OF women who use sewing
machines who will not agree with the
preacher on this point.

Every summer we have brush with
the Indians, for just as soon as the
weather is warm enough, they wish to
60 out on the plains to Craze their ponies
and hunt. Gradually the United States
have been domesticating "PoorLo," 70
keep him still and eat his government
rations of salt pork and poor beef. His
restless savage nature longs for the open
prarie or the mountain slopes. Recently
the settlers in the Indian country have
been alarmed and quite number killed
or scared to death. The excitement has
continued until three thousand United
States Soldiers have been ordered out
west for sake Of peace and protection.
The order to disarm the Indians will be
disobeyed at the expense OF open revolt
to the United States authorities. The
latest reports from Colorado City, July
1lth, are that the cowboys and the In,
dians have had q battle in New Mexico,
in which sixty red skins bit the dust, and
eleven cowboys. If the cowboys are
the reckless devils we read of, it is fight
in which we would toss up a copper as to
who should whipp.

colored, raised row with his landlord
Snowden by name and colored too,
which involved the safety of Snowdens
wife in the sequal Robertson was 4
cropper with snowden and occupied one
of the rooms in which the cooking for
the family was done. Robertson being
i'll tempered and surly insulted the hus-
band who left him and started for his
field. In few seconds, he heard his
wifes screams,and jerking up a loose plow
coulter lying handy went back to the
kitchen, where he saw Robertson with q
pistol in his hand and making violent
demonstrations. With one blow of the
coulter, he stretched his infuriate
partner on the bed on which he soon
expired. Snowden was acquitted in the
magistrates court.

there ever 80 many and such grave charges
against a man as Lowry? To refute them
facts and figures have been given time

tary return, we pay no attention to your
charges, believing that ifyou had nothing
else to charge the Governor with, you,
would object to the white Of his eyes,
because they were not green, and charge
him with q foul conspiracy with nature
because they look like other mems.

It is correctly rumored at Washington
that the scheme OF selling six States Of
Mexican territory on her northern bor-
ders to the United States is assuming
significance, as President Diaz has a
secret ambassador, authorized to present
it 10 the State department. Mexico is
sorely pressed for money to meet the
demands of the English bond bolders,
and we reckon that she would gladly part
with more Of her territory for that pur>
pose. As to our own national interests,
we think it at least doubtful policy at
this time.
