m0neyed affairs OF the-State, and tbs man
who does so for the safe of little cheap
political buncombe, will sooner or later se-
the folly OF his action. With money a. 8
per cent and taxes on the notes in the
hands OF the owners who may live In sIme
of the Incorporated cities, at 3 pa or per
cent. seems like rather poor Investment.
An inequality of our tax law that seems not
TO have struck the average LEGISLATOR is the
taxing OF notes in the hands of mortgagors
and then tax on the moyigaged property
ssainst the mortgage. II we c1uid correct
that evil and relieve the mortgage fro n
taxation in his Indebtedness it strikes me
that 1t would DC greater relief to the debtor
class than an attempt to enforce a lower rate
of interest. / have watched the legislative
proceedings with great interest hoping to see
some measure OF practical interest TO the
people proposed, but M st say | in common
with the people in this section have been
sadly disappointed.
We had hoped TO have something done
with our present onerous and infamous
ditch law. but have concluded that the pres
ent body is totally incapable of dealing with
il. Perhaps the best thing for them To do is
to pass the necessary appropriation bills and
adjourn, and let the people elect practical
farmers TO the next body, and send these fell
lows on foreign missions, or something more
adapted to their high order of iateilects.
The Sentinel gave the correct sound with
reference to the investigation OF the State
Treasury, bat our members seem to be quib
bling over the demsgogy Of Governor Porter
in his insinuatiDg message. While | have
the utmost confidence in the
safe cordition of the States finances
under our efficient State Treasurer it
Stems TO me that the Democratic
members should be anxious TO make the in
vestigstion for no other purpose than to
show ex Governor Porter up in his true
light and to place John ]. Cooper clear of
the least shade OF suspicion, as l feel certain
will be the cese, before the people, and
taking q club out of the Republicans hands

Hints to the Legislature.

Ii appears as if the people were going to
be sadly disappointed with our present Leg
islsture. 1t was generally thought that we
hsd elected the ablest set of legislators the
State had ever had, which is, perhaps, true,
but then We are beginning to realizs that
there is such thing as having too much
ability in legislative body. About one
third OF the time of the session has passed,
and the time been taken up By few of the
would-be statesmen in wrangling over un-
importsnt measures that would have been
better if they had died "a bornin'." / see
that distinguished member has proposed a
bill to reduce the legal rate of
interest TO per cent, which strikes
large number of the borrowing
class ss very :uicidel at this juncture.
large number of farmers all over ths State
have money borrowed, and the time for pay
ment is now at hand and they are unable

low prices of farm products, and tn air only
means of saving themselves from utter ruin

terest be reduced 10 6 per cent, the lenders

wholesale Fence Cutting.

LAS VEGAS N NJ, Jan. ia strong organi-
cation of wire.cutters has commenced operations
id Colfax county. An unbroken line of wire
from Ponie to the Tequesquite river, about
ninety miles, has been cut within the last day
or two. The cutters are unknown, but should
their identity be established, q bloody war will
follow 1t is said that heavy cattle owners fence
more ground than their needs call for,
and In many cases streams illegally
fenced for hundreds of miles, thus
keeping cattle on the government lands from
getting at water, for want of which they. drift
against the fences and die from thirst. Three
hundred and fifteen head thus died along Col
Taylors fences last spring. Ex-senator Dorsey,
who owns sixty miles square of fenced land at
Palo Blanca, addressed the cutters at Springer,
form him when they proposed to commence
operations on his fences he would voluntarily
remove them. The cutters agreed to give him
notice

the Hempfeld extension of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad, is near completion. In few weeks it,
with the bed from Little Washington to the tun-

its name from the former owner of the land
through which it runs, Mr. John S. Brady.
Work was commenced on it in 1858.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe road has

Lively Scene at a school Board Meeting.

JERSEY Cry, Jan. 15.-At a meeting of the
Gentlemen, there's no use in our trying
to transact business when our chairman will
stand up and lie in the most barefaced manner.
The printing bills all bear my signature, and
Mr. Laird lies when he says they don't
He knows 1t, too. The only thing for us
to do is to get out and let our
lying president run the department himself.
!, for one, propose to leave this meeting"
AS soon as he finished speaking he gathered
up his hat and coat and strobe toward the door,
followed by three other directors. Several Of
those remaining begged them to return, as there
was important business to be transacted, but
Director Boyd declared he would stand anything
but wilful lies, and, with his three friends left
the room. This left the board without quo
rum, and adjournment became necessary.
