an earnest advocate Of measures that
would tend to remedy their wrongs.
Among the resolutions adopted was
one that referred to f. II. Hutchins,

reason Of having it at private house
instead of at one Of the churches Of

a good piano can be used In the var

evening and without which they
could not be given. Mrs. Van Leu

on this occasion with as broad an in
yitation to come in and enjoy the en-

Western Farm Mortgages.

The State OF Kansas Is mortgaged
to the protected capitalists andnann-
featuring inonopolists Of the East for
over Sos5. OOO. 900. upon which an
average annual interest Of ten per
cent is paid. This vast sum OF money
escapes taxation almost entirely. and
the Legislature OF that State recently
introduced bill to tax mortgages,
the amount Of the tax to be deducted
from the mortgage, in the proportion
to the interest Of the lnortgngee in
the land, with the owner. This
threatened action Of the legislature
was the occasion Of converting the
mortgage holders in Boston recently,
when they gave instructions to have
every mortgage foreclosed as fast a.
Il became due in that state.
Governor Martin responds to this
order of the mortgages in this man
ner:
1.-The laws concerning mortgages
need revision and radical improve
ment. 1t should require something
more than a mortgage to steal a
mans farm. either in this or any
other state. Appraisement Of proper
ty before its sale under foreclosure
should be surrounded with the most
stringent limitations to protect the
interests OF the debtor. and the right
of redemption should not only be ex-
tended but made secure. Our chat
tel mortgage laws invite outrages on
property rights. that are fragrant as
grand larceny. and the wrong and in
Justice, that has been done under the
shield Of these laws is a disgrace to
civilized government. Our mortgage
laws should be generally remodeled,
SO as to protect the interests and
rights of debtors and mortgagors
against the greed and inhumanity Of
creditors and mortgages
Governor Martin is not merely
chargable with contributory negli-
gence, but with being one Of the con-
spirators who has aided the Shy!ocks
Of the East, to put a heavy hand on
the threats of the Kansas farmers.
The average Kansas voter, is per-
haps, ignorant of the fact that the
tariff tax plumbers him Of his sub
stance to enhance the hoard of ill
gotten gain thus turned into the
stream Of wealth that flows to the
Golfers Of the money lords of Wall
street, but Governor Martin has no
such plea of justification. The aver
age Kansas voter is perhaps ignorant
Of the fact that a contraction Of the
circulating medium of q country
makes low prices and hard times for
all classes except money lenders.
those with fixed salaries and annui-
tants, but Governor Martin is too
well versed in political economy to
plead ignorance of these facts and
their application to existing condit-
ions. The average Kansas voter may
be ignorant of the fact that the meas
ures which contract the currency by
hiding it away in an immense and
and useless surplus piled up in gov.
eminent vaults beyond the reach OF
the business needs Of the country
are republican measures enacted fol
the purposes they are accomplishing
but Governor Martin knew all these
facts, yet for the sake of a little briel
authority to be conferred upon hin

government the men who are respon
sible for the evils Of the country.

We GIadIy Correct.

The manager Of the Herald has
received the following from Mr.. w
]. Galloway of the A. & NJ. College,
and gladly inserts it, as it more fully
demonstrates the point he wished to
make in the article in last weeks
Herald, viz: That the A. & NJ. G.
and farm are grand success. Mr..
Galloway writes as follows:
MIR. JOHN McGuIRE:
Dear Sir and Brother:-In your
last issue you state, giving myself as
your authority, ''that the the pro-
ducts from the farms of the A. & NJ.
College paid all expenses this year
for the first time" How could that
be when the crops are not yet
gathered?
Please give place to tbs correction
in your next issue, as the facts in the
case are that the Legislature has not
appropriated dollar to the farm de-
partment of the A. & VI. College
since the second year after the estab-
lishment of the College. No, sir /;
far from being self-sustaining for the
first time for seven years, the farm
department has been a grand living,
real success. 1t stands to-day as a
living monument of what can be
done with old WORKOUT hill lands,
by the proper application Of the
scientific principles of diversified
crops, the liberal use of fertilizers
(home made), and intelligent drain
age by tile and hill side bitches, as
taught in the agricultural depart
ment. The land belonging to the
A. & NJ. G. was an old worn out cot
ton plantation 20 years ago, and to-
day these lands have on them the
finest crops OF corn, oats, ensilage
and grasses (for hay) ever known in
its history, so declared by some oi
the oldest residenters few weeks
ago at a meeting of the County ALI
ance held here. So l say there is &c
longer any excuse for any one tC
turn out as worthless any lands ir
Mississippi. If the owners Of such
lands will send their sons to the A
& NJ. c., they will be taught how Il
bring out all these lands to theil
former usefulness, and by so doing
make our grand old State the fines
grass, corn and grain country upoI
the face of Gods green earth.
Now, sir, II you have any reader
who are opposed to the A. & NJ. c
they are cordially invited to visit TIL
institution and see there the CRANE
work that is being done for th
farmer boys of the State.
A gentleman from Alfalfa visitet
