his resolution presented some time ago.
The bill provides for the establishment in
the treasury department of land loan
bureau, with chief at 81, 900 year and an
assistant at 5000 a year to be appointed
by the president The treasurer is to
cause to be printed, signed, and ready for
issue circulating notes of INSTRUMENTATION
of S. &c. $50, $50, 800, $500, and 81 900 to
the amount of s1OO, OOO, 900, which shall be
legal tender with gold and silver coin for
like amounts, and these notes are to be
held in the treasury to the credit of the
land loan bureau until issued in accord
ance with the provisions of this bill
Men Who May Borrow Money.
Every person who is citizen or who
has declared his intention to become a cit
izen and who is the owner in fee of unin-
numbered agricultural land may file with
this bureau an application for loan to
be secured by lien on that land The
loan is not to exceed one-half the assessed
value of the land, and no loan is to be for
less than $3.50, or to run for more than
twenty years. A copy of the application
for loan is to be filed with the recorder
of deeds of the county or counties of the
state OF territory in which the land is sit
uated, and it shall constitute q lien on the
property.

The applicant for loan is to deposit
sum to be prescribed by the chief of the
bureau sufficient to pay the costs of the
examination of the title, inspection and
appraisement of the land, and this work is
to be done by persons in the respective
counties to be designated by the chief of
the bureau. When the chief is satisfied
of the character of the security he is to
transmit to the proper officer of the treas
ury department an order directing the
payment of the money to be loaned, the
amount to remain subject to the order of
the applicant, who may draw it from time
to time by check or draft If the chief
finds on investigation that there is an ex-
isting lien on the property of less than the
amount of the loan asked of the bureau
and warranted by law, the loan may be
made, but the existing lien is to be dis
charged, and the amount of itadeducted
from the loan made by the government.

The bureau loans are to pay per cent
interest and this is to be payable annually,
and in event Of default of interest or prin-
cipal, proceedings to foreclose the lien are
to be begun in the state OF federal courts,
and TO the amount of the principal and in
teresr thus recovered are to be added costs
and attorneys fees, the latter not to ex-
coed $500 in any case A borrower may
pay back any part of the loan, not less
than % per cent at any time and in the
discretion of the chief may within twenty
years limit draw up to the full amount of
the loan again. The bill is defined as APP
plying to males and females alike.

Interesting All Around.

Edmunds remarked upon it as very Gu
riOus and interesting circumstance that Il
condition of things had been reached, where,
according to the debate and according to
the judgment of the supreme court, there
was in every man in one state an inherent
individual, personal right to carry into an
other state what that state might consider
injurious to its safety, and there sell it;
that congress had no power TO stop it, and
the states could not stop it unless the con-
gress gave them that power. Speaking of
the importation of Intoxicating liquor into
a state, Edmunds claimed that once they
got there they were whether in the hands
of natives or not the subject of the state
laws, and that was what the supreme
court of the United States would come to
within the next twenty years

Extension of the Principle.

Hiscock asked Hoar whether, if state
desired to exclude, not liquors, but manu-
features of wool, it was within the power
of congress to delegate to states the power
to do so. Hoar replied that he did not go
quite that far, but the question involved
was on the boundary lines between two
conflicting powers-the police power of
the state and the exclusive power of con-
gress over interstate commerce. Hiscock
thought it a doubtful policy to put it in
the power of a state to prohibit the i'm
portation of anything it might wish to ex-
clude, and of more doubtful constitution

WASHINGTON CITY, May 21.-The debate

senate yesterday, Wilson of Iowa opening
the discussion. He said the bill was in re-
Spouse to suggestion in the decision that
congress could permit the exercise of the
restraining power of state, and it was
for the purpose of giving that permission
that the bill had been introduced and re-
ported. The effect would be to have each
state in the Union to determine for itself
what its policy should be in regard to the
traffic in intoxicating liquors Under
that decision of the supreme court the
state of Iowa could not prevent the citi-
zens of other states, or the subjects of

ing Intoxicating liquors into Iowa and

inal packages by agents. At the present
time original package saloons were being

be pint or half-pint of whisky, or keg
or bottle of beer.
Not Power To BE Delegated.
Vest said that the authority of congress
over interstate commerce was an exclu-
sive power and could not be delegated,
and he quoted authority for the statement.
Gray agreed with Vest, but proposed that
congress could declare that Intoxicating
liquors were not an article of interstate

would open the door for the prohibition of
other articles. In answer to question

A COMMENTED MAN.

We sometimes get heart sick ov-
er having to record so many crimes
and disasters and mifortunes. But
when we can tell of prosperity, and
contentment, and progress, and ad-
vancement in education, and of q
virtuous and happy people, it is a
pleasure to edit newspaper. If
any people on earth can afford to
wear bright faces, Indicating clear
consciences within, they certainly
can who secure their substance from
mother earth by honest toll. Talk
about independence The most in
dependent man on earth, in the
higher and better sense, is the farm
or who has his lands and stock and
houses aAd machinery all paid for,
and who can place his hand on his
breast aad say that he depends on
no one for his substance except Ma
ture and Natures God. Then, az
ne gathers his loved ones around

health, and all growing in knowl-
edge and virtue-if he is not hap
Ply man, he ought to be, and the
trouble is in his own breast and not
outside Of it, and the sooner he has
an understanding with himself the
better.
The spirit of unrest still makes
many people unhappy, and we sup
pose it will always be so. But the

thought OF moving, and devote his
life to making an attractive and

The continuous cropping Of land
in this section is gradually leading
to itsimpoverishment by not allowing
it to recuperate by natural agencies.
Scientists say that O. considerable
amount cf plant food in the form of
nitric acid falls on an acre of land
every year. If the land is rested,
this amount is taken up by weeds
and is added to that already in the
soil. These weeds besides the gain
Of nitric acid, add also carbon in the
shape Of humus to the soil, and thus
enable it to support crops better dur
ing droughts. Indeed it is probable
that land, if cultivated two years
and rested the third, would produce
as much in a given number of years,
as if cultivated yearly, and there
would be no falling off of produc-
tiveness, unless allowed to WASH.
This means, Of course, less labor,
fewer hands and mules, and greater
profits. Besides, rested land is not
infested with crab grass so badly as
land regularly cultivated, and is
therefore more cheaply cultivated
in cotton. Labor is annually grow
ing scarcer and more expensive ;
and the best way to meet this diff
Guilty is to cultivate fswer acres,
manure well and rest the land Of

What a gain there would be to
Monroe county, if every farmer in
it would adopt this policy next year
and rosolutely adhere to it. OF
course there would be falling off
in production the first year, but the
net gains might be as large. After
that, the beneficial effect would be
plainly. seen. Even those, who let
out their lands to tenants, should
follow the same plan. Where there
have been 3 tenents one should ba
dismissed, and his land LETT to rest,
to be cultivated the second year by
one OF the remaining tenants. In
this way, land let out, il properly
terraced, need not deteriorate and
the revenues never decline. The
present is o. good time to consider
this subject.
