real estate is not good. because Il is
impossible, n the loan is not paid a,

within reasonable time.
There are two things which a secur-
ity offered to a bank must possess In

Is, that the loan shall be secure; second,
that the security, in CASE OF non-pay'
ment by the borrower. can be speedily
realized upon.
Real estate possesses the first OF
these requisites, but not the second. In
case a foreclosure must be rNesorted to,
the legal proceedings are slow in them
selves: the laws of many states allow
many delays TO bo interposei; and the
expense is therefore large, while the

BANKS IN SMALL TOWNS.

The house Of representatives has
passed bill, introduced by Mr.. Bro
sius, Of Pennsylvania, which will prove
Of great value TO the South and West,
If it shall get through the senate and

tional banks may be established in
towns having not more than 1000 in

The intent of the bill is TO improve
the banking facilities of the agricul-
turaI sections of the United States. The
present provisions of the national bank
ing law as to population and capital
stock operate TO confne the national
banks TO the cities and larger towns,

There is a somewhat common belief
that the evils of misgovernment are
more in sentiment than in fact, that
she blunders or the deliberate malfeas-
ance Of public officials, Objectionable as
they may be. do not after all cause
much practical injury. 1t is apparently,
at any rate, for some such reason that
people tolerate such misdoing. We may
safely presume, however, that that be-
lief has been pretty well knocked out
of the people Of North Carolina. who
now discover that, after a very short
term Of Populist rule. from being more
lightly taxed than the people Of any
Southern state, they have become bur
dened by taxes up TO the very last lin
1t allowed by the constitution. Back
IN Kansas and in the neighboring terri
tory we may see similar practical con-
sequences Of bad government in the
poverty and hopelessness Of the people.
Mismanaee cement Of public affairs is not
a misfortune in the sentimental aspect
only. Somebody must pay the cost Of
it just as in the case Of the misman-
agenlent OF private affairs.
