THE OUTLOOK.

AS the 1Egis goes to press the out
look mt Chicago seems to assure a radi-
cal free silver platform at a ratio of 1G
to /. On other matters it is temperate
and on the line of Democratic policy
now that we have been assured of Il
free silver candidate on like plat
form we must of course look to a new
leader us the Moses to lead us out of
the wilderness. Free silver has de
monstrated the fact that some of its
followers compose IL very dangerous
element calculated to wreck any party
to which they might belong. These
men are load mouthed and blatant
and will at once try to put themselves
up as the silver god to whom all who
profess Democracy should with rever-
ence most humbly bow.
AS an instance we'll take Tillman and
AltSeld. Has the present generation
produced anything to compare with
them. Both are brainy and could if
they wished be of great service to the
country, but they prefer to turn their
talents IN an anarchistic way rs far at
least as talking goes.
This is a great and noble nation,
and it would make Washington,
Jefferson. Jackson, Clay, Calhoun and
many other statesmen, who have
joined that silent army turn over in
their graves, if they saw Tillman,
Altgeld, PETER and their ilk occupy
ing the saddle us they do today.
THE MORTGAGE TAN.
In order to show the working of the
new law for the taxation of mortgages
the Baltimore Nc1ns quotes the fol-
lowing statement from IL private letter
which shows how the new law will
work as between borrower and lender.
The writer says: Il had Il mortgage
of $1,000 at > per cent. coming due
which | wished to renew. When |
went to see my creditor he said: I'm
der the Bankard law | am obliged to
pay s per cent. on the income | de
rive from my mortgage. 1t will there
fore, be impossible for me to renew at
the rate of per cent. If you want II
renewal you will have to pay 81. and
paid the increased rate. Whereas
the borrower had to pay formerly 800
for the use of this 5000, he must now
pay $40. OF the $40 additional the
lender pays the State and County
tax of $751; and makes a net profit, II
the borrower of $3.50. In those parts
of the State where per cent. is the
current rate upon loans, this method
cannot be used but where a lower rate
has prevailed, there will, no doubt,
for awhile be movement to raise the
current rate to a figure which will
make the borrower pay the tax
