WASHINGTON, D. c., January ll.|Sena-
tor PETER, today undertook some missionary
work in states outside the home Of the ALI
ance. He introduced a bill intended to
secure loan by the national government Of
the sum of 500, 900 900 to the people of
Indiana. The preamble recites that the peo-
pie Of Indiana are laboring nnder the
burden Of enormous interest charges, made
possible by the great scarcity OF money,
the direct result of Legislation favoring the
credit earning capitalists and hostile to the
wage-earner and producer, resulting in the
enforced mortgaging of lands in Indiana
to such an extent as threaten their loss.
The bill itself authorizes the secretary of
the treasury to Issue treasury notes to the
amount of 500. 900. These notes are
to be loaned to the people of Indiana on
mortgages upon their lands. Everyone who
accepts loan of this description is to give
promisory note for the amount. and he is
limited in his borrowing to one half of the
cash valuation of his land. 70 secure
fair rate of interest on the money loaned by
the government the state is to collect semi
annually tax of l per cent and turn it into
tile national treasury. When the principal
of the note falls due, if the prOmissory notes
are unpaid, the mortgages are forelosed
and the land sold. If there is no bidder
for the tract, the land is to be bid in for
tl,. T,,sfx i Il.
permitted TO remain upon it in cOnsidera-
ton of the payment Of a rental equal to a
tax of per Cent. a safeguard upon the
issue OF treasury notes under the terms of
the bill is provided in the clause limiting
their amount TO a total not exceeding 500
per capital for the whole country and not
less than $50 capita for the whole pOpua-
ton of the state of Indiana.

calls him, is one of those whole

to play a joke upon anyone, and
can draw the scales too over three
hundred pounds. They had neg

before starting; so when they ar

remained.unsold. With ali due
politeness, each offered to surren-.

together. It was a "tight squeeze" !"
but they both "turned in" An.
hour OF two passed, in which
neither of them could go to sleep;

and take a smoke. This was a
happy relief to the doctor: he
turned his face over to the wall
and was soon fast asleep. The
train in the meantime had stopped
at a small station, and an elderly
female,got aboard. Her figure was
almost on a par with that of the
coloners. She was in no way
backward in denouncing railroads,
their employees, and everybody
who would travel on them. When
she learned that all the berths had
beer taken, she "must lay down,
for she was nigh. dead J. Ihls was
q glorious moment for Crockett.
