THE objectors to the acceptance Of the

situation There Is a mortgage indebt-
eduess OF $3.50, coo or this, the state

proposes TO pay in cash and In 40 year
bonds bearing interest. A trust com
pany in New York has instituted suit on

state to sell her mortgage or buy the
rahiosd. The state does not wish to
sscri6ce any portion of the 5000, 600 or

ui.l be embarrassing to the last degree,
aud in the second place. either
course would sacrifice the holdings
OF s great many small local stockholders.
If the proposition Of the p, w. & B. is
accepted ell parties in interest will
stsnd as they stand now, ex-
espt that the $3.50. 600 mortgage viii
be assumed by the p, w. B., and the
state viii be practically rid of white

something in the difference between

aekholders who paid their money to

smiths mission to correct, namely, the
french theory that the produce Of land

the English theory shst the wealth of the
nation depended on the favorable balance
Of trade, from which they built up an
elaborate system Of protection ss destroy
the manufactures Of rival nations and
20 decide the channels in vhich trade
should flow. writer in the Edinburgh
Review says
II was this system which Adam Smith
undertook to criticize In his Wealth
of Nations. to use Buckles language
f'the old theory Of production, as applied
TO commerce. was DESTROYED Ia nearly all
its parts the doctrine Of the balance Of
trade was not only attacked but its
falsehood was demonstrated innumer
able absurdities, which had been accumu
lating ter ages we're swept swsy, and
such was the authors success that eighty
years after dts) publication there was
not TO be found any one OF tolerabl,
education who is not ashamed of holding
opinions which, before the time of Adam
Smith were universally received
Adam smith himself declared that stg
txp ct that freedom of trade should eve

Utopia should ever be established In it
