PETER SHOWS HIS HAND.

Mr.. PETER. the Alliance senator from Kan
sas. has shown his hand with vengeance.
| He has introduced in the Senate BIZ Tor the
relief Of the people Of Indiana the p'eain oie
Of which states that the farmers OF THAT Sla'e
are laboring under grieyous burdens on ac-
count of scarcity of money. and in order to
relieve the pressure upon them nc asks Ooh-
cress 20 i.sue 300. COO 900 in Treasury notes
directly 20 the people Of Indiana upon hrst
mortgage security upon any and AL real
estate living within the State 70 the amount
Of one-balf the cash value of lands as fixed by
the board OF tax commissioners OF Indiana
For this issue the Government IL to re-
ceive a tax Of per cent. per year. Citl-
zens 20 whom these Treasury notes snail DO
issued are to mortgage their lands 10 the Iov-
eminent 10 secure a promissory note payable
into the United States Treasury IN twenty
wears or sooner, at the option Of the mort
eager. the amount Of notes to DO not moro
than two.thirds Of the cash value OK the lands.
For failure t. pay the semi-annual tax OF tho
principal whom due personal property may
be levied thereon. and if this is not sufficient
TO pay the amount due then the county
auditor is directed % sell the property at
auction or tho lands may be rented by the
Government.
A very cursory glance over Mr.. PETERS bill
is sufficient 10 show its absurdity. If tho
Government should lend the people OF that
State 800. O00,O 900 the people Of other States
would. Of course, have the right 20 demand
similar fayors. There are now forty-iour states
in the Union, and this would mean that the
General Government should advance. on the
average. to the people Of the different States
the enormous sum Of s44O0,O0oOl0 And on
what security: Upon the real property Of the
people themselves.
What would he the inevitable result Of this,
As in a large majority Of cases the money
borrowed from the Government would not
be returned when due either more aid would
have 10 be extended OF the Government
would have TO take possession of tho property
OF the delinquent and turn him out OF house
and home. II the first plan were adopted we
would see millions Of irredesmablo Govern
ment notes scattered broadcas; throughout
tie land; and if the latter wero pursued. we
would see an army of destitute citizens shiy-
ering with cold and ravenous for food. while
the Government IS carrying on a series oil
auction sales throughout the country
Could o more pitiable or horrible picture
bo imagnedy The cruel ovictons OF which
we hear so much in Ireland would be nothing
compared to what we would then see In tins
boosted land OF the free. and the result would
only be chaos and confusion indescribable. Mr.
PETERS plan for relief to the suffering farm
ers of the West is wholly impractcable and
evidently some other scheme must DO de-
yised.

Hon. DAVID b. Hills idea that the New
York Legislature elect the presidential cleo
tors of that State is startling from its novel
tv It's constitutonally has been questioned
but of that there is no doubt. since under the
Constitution each State has right to choose
its presidential electors in any manner the
Legislature may see fit. But the great trou-
BILE about New Nork is its uncertainty. Very
frequently that State gives Democratic ma
iority on the popular vote, and yet elects
Republican Legislature. and 80 it might hap
pen that in presidential year the people of
the state might vote fora Democratic Pres-
dent and yet Republican Legislature might
appoint Republican electors. Tho Michigan
plan of choosing electors by the people in
congressional districts Just as congressman
are elected seems to be the iairest plan that
has yet been suggested. That enables the
elect raj college to express the true sent-
ments Of the people.
ONr Of the indications Of the constantly
growing civilization of the United States is
the marked annual increase in tho amount
