LEEDS { PENNINGTON
RI. 90.
First Mortgage 6 per cent Bonds,
DUE JULYI, 1896.

We have bought $633,OOO Maine
Central Consol. As, due 1912, and
offers the holders of Leeds and Far
mington SIS, the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 18th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. rs
at par, and prepay the interest due
April 1st, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Pennington bonds, allow
ing par and per cent accrued in
terest to date Of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Pennington bonds on a
8 rs per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
258,300 outstanding when the
Leeds & Pennington are converted
out Of total of $9,00O,000, to take
the place of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortgage
become first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approx
mately $4,000; this is in addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $21, 700,
making total Of nearly 100000 or
2 per cent on the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. on the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus und improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

novels have been written in the English
type since, that this early work of Mr..
Thomas Hardy seems almost pale in its
propriety. Yet with the exception OF

strongest story which has come from the

President Harper Of Chicago University
has just made public statement in re-
gard to the charge that Professor Bemis
was deprived Of his position as instructor
in political economy by the influence of
capitalists who were large givers to the
university. He said:
'From the beginning the university
has believed in the policy of appointing
to positions in the same department men
who represent different points of view.
1t is evident, therefore, that no instruc-
sor in the university has been or will be
asked to separate himself from the uni
versity because his views upon particu-
lar question differs from those of another
member of the same department. evon
though that member be the head The
university has been, in q conspicuous
way, the recipient of large gifts of money
from wealthy men. To these men it owes
debt of sincere gratitude. In absolutely
no case has any man who has given as
much as 81 to the university sought by
word or act, either directly or indirectly,
to control or even influence the policy Of
the university in reference to the teach
ings of its professors in the departments
of political economy, history, political
science or sociology. To be still more
explicit, neither John D.. Rockefeller,
SldIlbS Il. y tEhCSy N1dIUI a. Ivy
Marshall Field, Silas B. Cobb, Sydney
Kent, George G. Walker nor any other
benefactor of the university has ever ut
tered a syllable or written word in citi-
cism of any theory advocated by any pro-
lessor il any department. of the uniyer-
sity."
This makes 1t pretty certain that Prof
Bemis did not suffer from any Influence
exerted by the wealthy benefactors of the
college, but it leaves the reason of his
removal still unexplained. But perhaps
all that President Harper can fairly be
called upen to do is to answer this specific
charge. He is under no obligation to the
public to state the reasons which influ-
enced him in this case or any other case

- The dispatches do not make it quite
clear what the dispute between the Hon.
Hoke Smith and the. Catholics is all
about, but probably at the bottom of it
is the question of government aid to the
Catholic schools among the Indians. Ali
the other denominations now refuse gov
eminent aid for their schools, but
the Catholics still hold on and perhaps
they are at odds with the Secretary as-to
the amount that shall be given them, or
some of the conditions of its use. Com
missioner Morgan incurred much hostility
and was the subject of many charges be-
cause he would not comply with all the
demands of the Catholics, but public
opinion generally sustained his conduct
and it is not probable that Hoke Smith is
in danger of removal for anything he has
done The threat to carry the matter
into politics must come from some Catho-
lies who are anxious to strengthen the A.
