A BLOW FROM THE BANKERS.
Certain Points In the New Bill of Lading
Are Unsaiisfn Glory.


Are Unsaiisfn Glory.
CHICAGO, September Tt transpires
that the Eastern banking houses are still
unwilling to advance money on the new
Uniform bill Of lading, and many of them
firmly refuse to acceptitas collateral for drafts
Notwithstanding the elimination of the nom
negotiable provision. The reason fosthis is
that its value as security is greatly impaired
by other provisions. particularly the one
which is designed to release the railroads
from any liability for damage or loss of
property during transportation. When the
old form was in use the bankers knew that
if the property which the paper represented
was destroyed in transit, the shipper could
recover from the carrier and thus meet his
obligations, but the new form is especially
intended to transfer this responsibility from
the carrier to the shipper, and leave the lat
ter to take all risks.
IF anything were needed to complete the
defeat of the new bill OF lading, this atti-
tude of the banks would certainly be the
finishing blow.

A writer in the May number of the
Forum, Mr.. C. Wood Davis, holds out
hope of coming prosperity for the farmer.
According TO Mr.. Davis, the eating capa-
city Of our people is fast catching up with
the producing power of the growers. Ac-
cording TO his figures, our domestic con-
sumption of cereals, potatoes and hay will
be equal TO the product, by the first of
January, 1895. Thereafter, our agrieul-
tural exports will chiefly, if not wholly,
consist of tobacco, cotton and animal pro-
ducts-meats, lard, etc. The volume of
these, If course, will diminish as the
home demand for more breadstuifs, hay
and potatoes shall increase. On this basis
of calculation, all the products of The farm
being required, at good prices, farming
lands will appreciate in value and the
American farmer will have his innings.
1t is averred that the statistics OF produc-
ton and consumption IN the United States
show that each individual requires 3.15
acres of arabic land to furnish his subsis-
tencc. Arguing from this fundamental
fact, Mr.. Davis concludes that the increase
OF population will reach, within the per-
iod above indicated, the limit of produc-
ton. But we may hope--for the nom
producers-that much of the land now re-
garded as unproductive may be found
capable OF crop-bearing. Arid deserts
may be irrigated, and barren wastes, now
given over to desolation, may yet be re-
claimed and made to blossom as the rose,
giving food for the sower and bread for
the cater. This facter in the problem of
demand and supply should not be over
loOkpI

The bill before the House of Assem-
bly, to pension the Justices Of the Supreme
Court and the Chancellor and Vice Chaucel-
lors, is meeting with general denunciation
by the papers of this State, without re-
gard TO politics. This bill proposes TO
give to each OF these Officers who have
served twenty years yearly pension of
$4,000, provided they resign and give
place TO some one else. The member who
introduced this bill was no doubt melted
TO do it by some one or more Of those who
will be benefited by II. But no member
who hopes for any political future will vote
for ii. The people of New Jersey are not
in the humor for reckless extravaganza,
particularly so when the men for whose
benefit the BILLS drawn draw salaries the
income from one year OF which would
keep in comfort a mechanic or working
man.
Instead Of providing feast of fat things
for these men, many Of whom are rolling
in wealth, it would be better for our leg
islaters 10 look to the interests of those
who are compelled to transact business in
our courts of law. These courts, as at
present run, are autocralic IN their power,
and the Justices in many instances exhibit
tyraunical spirit that would not dishonor
an irresponsible Eastern dcspot.
Notice how our Hunterdon courts have
been conducted for years. The presiding
judge opens court at 1890 or ii o'clock,
adjourning one hour for dinner, and closes
it at 4:30, so that he may go home. Poor
men who have cases, often with large
numbers of witnesses, are compelled to
be present with them from day 10 day, at
great expense, or else have their cases go
over from term to term, for II when one
case is completed, the next case is not
ready on the instant 10 go on, it is put off
until the next term. Often, case after
case is put off because lawyers, not cx-
pecting their cases to be called, happen to
be absent from the court room for few
moments, and the calendar being thus IN
tremendously exhausted, the judge ad-
journs court for the term after day or
two's session, and relires 10 recuperate his
exhausted energies. Now If the courts are
the creation of the judge, this may be all
right, but they are not. They are estab-
lished by the people, that justice may be
secured, and prompt adjustment be had
of all questions of law. 1t is the duty OF
the judge 10 conduct the court for the
convenience Of those having business il
il and not for his own. Certainly, judg,
who gets $4,000 per year can afford t.
board few days at Pennington hote
AMI spend six or eight hours in court. A
the Bucks Co. (Pa) courts, long day SEES
sions are l.eld, and often evening session
also.
In fact, the whole system of courts il
New Jersey needs revision. The auto
cratic power Of the judges should be re
stricted, and their duties defined; th'
number OF the various courts reduced ant

The inducements so freely offered by

We print in another column n pretty
fair Democratic editorial copied from the
LanabertUilte Record, Republican or
gan. just what the Record advocates
the adjustment of trusts and all sorts Of
combinations that have for their object
the enrichment of the few at the expense
and TO the distress of the multitude-is q
doctrine that Democracy has been striv.
ing for through all these years OF tariff
agitation, and we welcome the Record to
our ranks. Read the article under the
head of "The World is Moving" 1t is
based upon the platform OF the Demo-
cratic party Huqtertoa Democrat
We arc exceedingly glad that what
we wrote is good Democratic doctrine.
1t is also good Republican doctrine-at
least our kind. The trouble is that a
great many OF the leaders of both parties
do not care f1g Tor principles. What
they are after is the offices, and platform
can be very elastic so that it is strong
enough to land them in the positions they
desire. 1t will not do to tell the rank and
file this, but soto uoce, there is great
deal of humbug about politics. Let 1t be
the mission of the press TO advocate The
