There is o great d4ai being said about The
merc,ntile fraternity not selling auy thing on
tiue In nine'y-isA, Nov think the mer-
chants had better iaw on that line, for
fear they vii locs, p than they wilt eaio

them 70 c'ose sewn fs 'fSr crsditing Of dry
goods. but 10 refuse thc farmers credit for
stances now in thScountry, wouid briog ruin
and disaster upJnhhe tillers Of Oh. soil aud
those in other a'scations, and would certain
Iy cause less debss 10 be paid than would be
under other circumstances. As IN illustra-
ton, we will take q man that owes all he
will make this year, and al the mercbnnts
say we will not credit out single dollars
worth Of dry goods or provisions in '92. That
man would sell his crop aud put the money
in his pocket, knowing that he could not
get credit any more, and who could b!ame
him for being gnilty Of such an act, knowing
that without money he would have 10 e.

Now, Mr.. Editor, if you will allow me,
will say few words about those that owe
debts and don pay. There is one class OF
people who buy and don't intend to pay,
while therc are others who try hard to pty
ssa ssis called s,ss. ssIss, and s1
| scoundrels, while they have mofvshouessy
about them than those who vilify them. 1
know men who would gla lily pay the last
cent they owed, but, alas. it is impossible for
them to do so, consequently they have to
| bear share Of the abuse that is put upon
| dishonest men.
The wea' her still continues favorable for
| gathering crops, so let US be thankful that
things ere as well With us as they ar'.
