AN event almost without precedent
will take place when the sheriff sells
to the highest bidder the whole town
of Manchester, n. J., railroad shops,
churches, schools, stores, residences
all but the citizens. This is the result
of the action of the Mutual life Insur-
ance Co., of Newark, in foreclosing a
mortgage held on the entire town. The
mortgage was given by John Torrey
now deceased, in 1867. He bought thou
sands of acres of land and laid out the
town. For more than twenty years
the mortgage seems to have been hid
den away somewhere; people forgot all
about it and property was bought and
sold freely.

THE London Times says: prices in
the United States are already so low
that they cannot be much lower. The
drain of gold is a reminder that the
United States, in spite of it's vast po-
tentia1 resources, is relatively poor
country, depending for floating capital
on the older European countries. The
secret of the continued paralysis is the
uncertainty regarding the future of
silver and the tariff. It is certain that
the worst act that congress is capable
of passing-and it has considerable ca
pacity in that direction-could not
harm American industry SO much as

the subject as to whether farm
ing in Kansas pays, said: Il have
had somewhat intimate connection
with Kansas agriculture for twenty
seven years, in which l have seen
many good years and poor, and the
hard times and easy times that come to
all communities, but / do not know the
name of a man in all the state who has
steadily followed farming with intelli-
gence and industry. raised a diversity
of crops, along with some live stock,
avoided going into debt for andy specu-
1ative purposes, and stuck to 1t, who is
not forehanded and comfortable. For
myself, l have unbounded faith in the
real Kansas farmer; / know him well,
and he gets along; he acquires COM
Portable home; he helps to build up the
school. the church and the state, and
believes in them all; he rears his sons
and daughters in morality and sobriety,
sends them to high-grade schools and
they become worthy successors of a
sturdy ancestry further and living

does pay"
