PACIFIC RAILROAD DEBTS.

President HUNTINGTON, of the Central
Pacific, has published a letter in which he
reviews the Pacific railway legislation in
Congress and argues that it will be better
for government if it shall accept the COM
panies' propositions and extend the loans
for long time at low rate of interest. Mr..
HUNTINGTON is correct. His proposition
would never be called in question if the
creditor were an individual and it was his
own money that he was looking after.
The situation is easily enough understood,
and If it were not for a few demagogues
in Congress who try to pose as friends of
the dear people the trouble would have been
adjusted long ago. Neither the Central
Pacific nor the Union Pacific can pay its
debt to the government when it shall fall
due. Anyone who knows anything of the
facts will agree with this statement. The
roads and all the property in which the
government has lien, if there were a
good market for them, would not fetch
enough money to lift the bonds, and the
companies cannot borrow the cash
10 settle the debts. But suppose
it were possible to raise the money, take up
the bonds and wipe out the mortgage
would it be good business on the part of the
owners OF the roads to do sol Would men
of ordinory intelligence pursue that course !
If Mr.. HUNTINGTON had the necessary
money in the bank and could escape from
the annoyances inspired by the govern
ment by simply drawing his check would
not everybody call him an ass were he to
attach his signature to the draft! We think
So The fact is, the roads can be duplicated
to-day for half the money which
the company owes to the government and
the Central Pacific company can make
money no faster than by submitting grace
fully to foreclosure of the mortgage and
the cancellation of the debt. On the other
hand it will be money in the pockets of the
government TO accept settlement on any
terms which will fetch the cash at any
time. The banker, if he knew that the
maker of a note could not possibly pay at
the maturity of the paper, but if let
alone would be able to pay some
time in future, would not crowd
his debtor to his own loss, but would grant
the extension and thus save himself. Ger
tain demagogues in Congress are eager for
the government to pursue the opposite
course, foreclosing the mortgage and get
ting half what is due, at the same time
placing it beyond its power to ever collect
the remainder.
1t is to be hoped that the new Congress
viii have in it enough men with ordinary
horse sense to adjust this matter of the
Pacific roads Indebtedness in such way
as will save the government and at the same
time be equitable towards the companies
and towards the communities to which the
railways run. We want no government
ownership Of railroads out this way. Nor
do we want these roads perpetually handi-
capped by threatened adverse legislation.

WHAT MINES DO.

For years the product Of gold and silver
from Nevada has been almost a third
greater than that of Utah. Up to 1855 in
recent years that of the former was about
s., 1000, 900 annually.
Now, according to the notions OF some
people hereabouts, Nevada should be very
rich state; while as matter of fact her tax
able property amounts to scarcely as much
as that of Salt Lake city alone.
As a wealth producer for either Utah or
Nevada mining is one of the least of the in
dustries to which special credit is due. The
Sacramento Record Union points out that If
the people of the state of Nevada will in
quire what the silver mines of that state
have done in the way of permanent i'm
provement in the direction of establishing q
commonwealth, whose foundations are laid
in some enduring industry, they will find
that silver has done nothing for them what.
ever. The millions of dollars worth of sill
yer bullion produced in that state have
simply left it and left it poorer than it was
at the beginning.
Silver production in Nevada has built
many splendid business blocks in the CITY
Of San Francisco; has created few aristo-
cratic millionaires who have resided in
California or Europe. The wealth taken
from the mines of Nevada has not con-
tributed to the construction of even a vii.
lage, founded upon permanent industrie.
which would support block in any re-
spectacle city.
"The natural resources Of the state o.
Nevada far surpass those of Utah. There
is vastly more irrigable land in that stat.
than in the territory of Utah, and yet tn,
latter territory has one prosperous, perma
nently-established city of $1,000 inhabi
tants, not dependent upon ephermerou

HILL AND BULkELEY.

An important incident occurred few
days ago between Gov. HILL, of New York,
and MORGAN G. BULzELEY, lately governor
of Connecticut.
1t will be remembered that Democratic
governor LUzoN B. MoRks, was elected by
vote of 1852 against MERwIN, Republl-
can, with 63, 916, and AUGUR, Prohibition,
with 3,413. The Democratic nominee re-
ceived 1855 more votes than the Republi-
can nominee and majority of 20 over all.
The state senate, which is Democratic,
recognized MORRIS as governor, while the
Republican house tried to count MORRIS out
by going behind the returns. a deadlock
followed, and BULKELEY, the former Re-
publican governor, continues to occupy the
gubernatorial chair.
Mr.. BULKELEY signed reQuisition, a
few days since, for the return of safe
breaker who had escaped into New York.
He forwarded the document to the execu-
tive mansion at Albany. Governor Hill
mo sir; no extradition.n
When he was asked for reason for this
refusal, probably the first of the kind in
our history, he said, mir. BULKELEY is
not the governor of Connecticut l cannot
recognize him. Send the papers back"
The constitution provides that ''a person
charged in any state with treason, felony,
or other crime, who shall fee from justice
and be found in another state, shall, on de-
mand of the executive authority of the
state from which he fed. be delivered up,
to be removed to the state having jurisdic-
ton of the crime.''
The charge against the fugitive must be
made in some due form of law and by COM
petent authority. 1t will be seen that
Governor HILL denies the authority of a
usurper to issue the requisition.
+ Decisions of the courts have shown that
if the demand is made in due form, it is the
duty of the executive on whom the demand
is made, to respond to it and he has no
right to refuse. Nevertheless, if he does
refuse, no power has been conferred on the
federal courts to compel obedience, and the
governors of states have often refused
compliance with the demand. when in their
opinion substantial justice did no. require
it But this is perhaps the first instance
in which a refusal has been made on the
ground that the governor signing the
requisition was not governor dc j,re, but
only dc fdeto. The case is interesting.

THERE MAY be nothing in the story tele-
graphed this moring that JAY GOULD is
working to- consolidate the Missouri
Pacific, Union Pacific, Southern Pacific,
the Santa Fe and the Rock Island railways
into one gigantic corporation; it may be
simply the invention of an imaginative cor
respondent who wants to provide the peo-
pie something to talk about. But if there
is anything in the alleged scheme some
friend should advise Mr.. GOULD to move
cautiously in the matter. This is not a
good time to foist trusts and combines and
monopolies upon the public. The people
are growing very weary of those things
and have lately shown disposition, if not
q settled determination, to make matters
interesting for the monopolistic schemers
Legislatures also are manifesting an in
clination to make trusts and combines
criminal. A combination such as is here
proposed would autagonize the entire com.
munity west of Chicago, and might result
in legislation which would make the in
tended monopoly anything but money.

NO NEW ISSUE.

The Democratic press and leaders
throughout the country should see to it that
no new issue is raised for the campaign of
1892.
Tie great issue is that of tariff reform,
and no other should be permitted to over
shadow it. This is the most important
issue, it is the one that has been followed
up almost to finish, and is the issue in
which all classes are interested.
The tariff has burdoned the farming
class with debts and mortgages, and stead
lily increasing while the price of farm pro-
ducts fell, leaves that class with an almost
hopeless burden to bear.
a farmer who owed $1,000 thirty years
ago and has paid up the interest aud half
the principal, still owes almost the whole
of it, judging from the amount of farm pro-
Gucs he must sell to clear off the remaining
$500.
For thirty years the government has re-
duced the reward of farmers labor from
fourth to one-third of It's entire amount
The prosperity of the farmer is fixed by
the price he receives for his products,
and the foreign market likes thai
price. The price in the home market is
fixed by the price paid IN the foreign mar
ket, ana the government reduces the price
of farm products in the foreign market BY
selling at the custom houses from one
fourth to one-third of the pay the farmers
receive for their products sold abroad.
The pay for farm products sent abroad
consists of the various articles imported
and the government seizes one third o.
these at the custom houses; that is, the i'm
porters must pay fine amounting to one
third the value of his imports before h,
can receive them.
Robbed of one third of their pay in tn
foreign market, the same thing necessaril,
happens in the domestic market; for Their

why Pay Rent?

A great many people go on year after
year paying rent for home in which to
live and bring up their families. They
move from place to place and from one
home to another, and of real home life
in its best sense they know nothing.
They do not stay in a bouse long enough
to take root, but wander through life un-
til they reach that narrow house which
becomes their final resting place. Ask
such man as this why he does not buy
place and he will reply: OH it don't
pay to own home" Most great fort
unes are made and perpetuated by tang
ible investment. There is nothing bet
ter than real estate as safe and staying
asset, and the shrewdest financiers will
generally be found planting their money
in lands and houses rather than tempt

The Archer Bond Case

In the Circuit Court at Towson yester-
day, Judges Fowler and Burke on the
bench, Bernard Carter concluded his ar
gument on the demurrer to the replica
ton filed by plaintiff to defendants fifth
plea. in the case of the State vs.. Archer
and his bondsmen. The court overruled
the demurrer, thus virtually holding that
the bond of 1888 was good, although Mr..
Archer only qualified by filing the bond
and being sworn in ON November 1S,
1889; and therefore, that it was necessa-
ry, as contended by the defense, that
Archer should have qualified within 80
days after his appointment in order to
hold the sureties on the bond The case
was, therefore, at last gotten before a
jury. The following jury was empanel-
ed; Shadrack Kemp, Edward Metz, Joel
F Council, David Bowman, John w.
Anderson, Daniel Pearce, Geo. Wheeler,
Thomas Chenowith. Andrew p, Hurbler,

concluded at the hour of adjournment.

Love to God was the subject Of
remarks at the Presbyterian Church last
night. Said the speaker The gods Of
heather religions are objects to be fear.
ed and hated The pictures we have of
them, in most cases, are most rspulsire,
and the idols gathered In our museums
and mission houses are by no means
beautiful We are told by missionaries
and travellers in heather countries that
the people have no love awakened in
their hearts toward the gods they wor-
ship. Fear and hatred are the prevail
ing feelings in many heather religions.
But hew different is It with those who
entertain correct views Of the true God.
The attributes of his character are 30 no
bic and exalted that respect for Him is
Immediately awakened, as soon as we
have knowledge of them. All these attrib-
utes, as power wisdom, justice, and good
ness, are infinite in their character. What
God Is in himself is enough to call forth
the noblest emotions OF the human heart
II we were TO sit down and study the
character of God as it is revealed in the
sacred scriptures, we would find our
hearts greatly benefited. Then when
We come to think of Gods goodness to
US, as shown in temporal and spiritual
blessings, we feel that God is worthy Of
the love of our hearts God has been
good to US even when we have forgotten
Him. He has watched over us and pro-
Vided for our wants through all our lives.
Out OF gratitude 10 him for so many tenn
peral blessings, we ought to love him.
The kindness of oar friends has drawn
out our love TO them. SO the kindness
of God should awaken love in our hearts
TO Him
But the greatest expression of God s
love to us is shown in the gift OF His
dear Son Jesus Christ. He is represen-
ted as His only Son, and yet He gave
him to make an atonement for our sins,
that we might be brought out of the con-
domination and pollution OF sin, and have
home in heaven when we are done
with earth A thoughtful, serious medi-
tation upon the life. and work and suffer
ings Of Christ must have, with the aid
of the Holy Spirit, the hapiest effect
upon our hearts. We cannot possibly
come to the study of this great subject
in the proper manner without having
our nature revolutionized aud sanctified.
The trouble with many is that they are
not willing to take the time to mediate
upon gospel themes. We are so occupied
with the things of the world that relig-
ious subjects are crowded out. We urge
you to take the time to carefully read
and study the word of God with the
prayer that you may derive spiritual bene-
fit from II.
