The last issue Of the Sank Centre
Herald contains an article on the
Little Falls g. Dakota railroad
bonds, issued by the township Of
Sank Centre to aid in building that
road. These bonds, $4,000 in
amount matured on the Both day of
December last, and no provisions
have been made for meeting them
either by payment on extension.
The incorporation Of the village of
Sank Centre after the issuance of the
bonds rather complicated matters
relative to their payment and at that
time the opinion was given by the
village attorney that the village was
not legally liable for the payment Of
any part of the indebtedness. Public
feeling however was that in equity
the village should pay its just pro.
portion of the debt, and a special act
of the legislature was enacted in 1873;
making it proportionately liable with
the township and under this. law the
village, and subsequently, the city
after its Incorporation, has continued
to pay its proportion Of interest
although the legality Of the law before
the courts has been questioned. Blu
how to meet the payment of the BONDS
appears to be question not easy O.
solution because Of certain provisions
in the city charter covering city
Indebtedness and the general Law
relative to township Indebtedness
also the old question of the lega
liability Of the city after its incor
poration. Nospecial legislation il
possible, as by. the constitutions
amendment, carried at the last
election the legislature is prohibited
from enacting special laws of this
character. Both city and township
are disposed to fair settlement wber
legal questions can be harmonized.

Gail Hamilton has written caustic
letter TO Hon. VIM. E. Gladstone, in
which he severely scores him, as the
the head of the British government
for permitting the continued i'm
prisonment of Mrs. Maybrick. From
all we can learn of the case it looks
as though the prisoner was unjustly
sentenced, and that the British
government, with characteristic
obstinacy refuses to admit itself in
error. Vindictiveness instead of
justice, seems to control the action of
those who have authority to act in the
matter.

The net state debt according to
State Treasurer Bob!etter's report IS
$2,O51 734.77. lii that report there
is recommendation on his part that
the funding tax be increased from ono-
tenth Of mill to two-tenths. That
tax on the total taxable property of
the.state would yield just enough to
cover the annual interest on the state
bonds. The creation Of the sinking
fund was wise act, designed to dis
pose Of principal and interest Of the.
public debt and it is working we'll.
An increase Of the funding tax may
not be<necessary, indeed, since the es-
surplus for 1894 is $3.50, 900
and for 1895 is $4,000. Gov. Mer-
riam estimates that the surplus will
facilitate the reduction Of taxation at
least eight-tenths Of a mill. The last
legislature increased the tax levy to
20 mills, and if reduction is possible
it should be accomplished by this leg
islature which, making no loud pre-
tentions to reform, is likely to accom-
plish good deal more in that direc-
ton than its predecessors. Mime
