The ADVANCE household had a
pleasant call on Wednesday from Mr.
J. ". Fix. formerly of Kokomo, Ind .,
now residingin Primghar, Iowa. He,
and Mr.. Geo. W. Wright, are buying

The debate between Rev. W. B. Hill
and Rev. J. NJ. Van Kirk on the Sab
bath question still continues before
large audiences at the Grand Army
Hall. On Tuesday last Mr.. Van Kirk
TOOK the affirmative of the following
proposition: ''1'he law of which the
weekly Sabbath is a part is abolished. -
The speakers are heard with interest,
and the discussion will continue for
several evenings yet.
We are glad to learn that many of
our enterprising farmers are in favor
of buying permanent grounds for the
use of the ANIMAL Fairs of the Mobiles
County Agricultural Society. By so
doing permanent buildings and other
improvements can be made on the
property from year to year, and thus
much expense saved that is now neces.
sarily incurred from year to year. It
has been the custom to borrow lumber
for the temporary. structures each
year. These are put up before each
fair and the lumber returned. The
broken lumber must lie paid for, and
the expense of hauling, putting up and
taking down the materials is consid-
cradle item which might be saved, if
permanent accommodations were Sc
cured. The County Fair should have
a permanent home, and the better fla
cili,ies provided, the more useful aud
profitable the Annual Fair will be-
come.

Senator Stanford is said to be at
the head of a scheme which has for
its purpose the planting Of negro
colony on the Pacific slope. That
such an enterprise will succeed there
rs little room for doubt, for all the
conditions are favorable. The eli
mate and soil are all that could be
desired; the Senator has the money
to carry forward any project which
enlists his sympathy, and no doubt n
sufficient number of able bodied
colored men and women can be
easily secured to undertake the ex-
pertinent. 1t would bring John
Chinaman and Sambo in closer prox-
unity than they have ever been in
this country, and if they should
conclude to try miscegenation, the
result might prove TO be race of
hardy, industrious and progressive
people. We hope the experiment
will be made.

Mortgaeed Homes.


The optimistic assertions of high
tariff advocates as to the condition
of the people under the ''protective''
system do not find much support in
the cold facts reported from time to
time. For instance, the st. Louis
Republic points out that according
to the returns of the enumerators
engaged on tho mortgage census,
there are now 2, 491 800 homesteads
under mortgage. In a population
Of g., 100000 people there are not
more than l2,5Oo,O0O families, so
that, even if there is homestead to
every five persons, two homesteads
in every ten are mortgaged. The
total mortgage indebtedness on
homesteads is estimated from the
census returns at s2,565, OOO, 600,
which. at per cent. would amount
to an interest tax of s205, 200, 600 u
year on the 2,49l $50 heads of fam
lilies involved, or of over $50 a year
on each. At the average rate of
American wages for unslilled labor,
each one of these heads of families
would be required to work eighty.
two days in the year to pay inter-
est on tho mortgage debt, The
money-lenders, therefore, have
force of nearly two and half mil
lion men working for them for 50
days out of 800 days in the year un-
der system having for the money
lender many advantages over Afri-
can slavery, as the chattel slave was
fed and clothed by his master and.
supported at his masters cost in
sickness. The profits on the labor
of the chattel slave were frequently
nothing ut all, and rarely, if ever,
as much as $50 net head" The
greater part of this mortgage load
is borne by the agricultural States,
and just how much of it represents
profits wrung from the farmers by
the tariff monopolists would be an
interesting question for staticians to
figure on. "After thirty years of
high tariff taxation and Republican
financial policies remarks tho Re
public, athe country has been forced
entirely away from the cash basis to
a basis of interest bearing credits.
The people are in debt as they have
never been before in the history OF
the country, and under the Repub-
lican policy there is no hope oftheir
getting out FL. And this while
through the labor OF the people the
general wealth of the country has
increased until now the average
wealth of the poorest farmer and of
any one of the moderately wealthy
plutocrats is counted by millions.
If you feel very poor, there is al
ways this consolation for you-that
you can add your wealth to that of
Carnegie, and take half so as to find
how well off the two of you togeth-
er are 'on the average You will
then be able to get all the satisfac-
ton there IS to be had out of the in.
crease in the average per capita
wealth of the country" Baltimore

man is more familiar with parli-
mentary law and better equipped
than Mr.. Wilson. The contest
seems now to be between half a
dozen gentlemen, anyone of whom
would fill the office with ability.
But neither of them has developed
sufficient strength to Indicate that
he is the man for the place. Mr..
Wilson's fitness is recognized by all,
and his election would do more to
harmonic the party than that of
any other of the distinguished men
named"

We don't care a rush farthing
who makes our clothes, but we pre-
fer American manufacture because
it is better and handsomer. We pre-
fer all kinds of American goods, be-
cause, in our opinion, they suit
Americans better than goods of for
eign make. But we eternally de-
spise any law or set of laws that
compel us to buy any particular
kind of goods. We want an Amer
lean privilege of buying where we
please, and therefore we despise
the Mckinley (prohibitory) tariff.
