Carlyle wrote with the utmost diff
ficulty and never executed page OF
his great histories till he had consult
ed every known authority, so that
every sentence is the quintessence OF
many books, the products of many
hours of drudging research In the
great libraries. Today "Sartor Re-
sartus" is everywhere. You can get
it for, a mere trifle at almost any
booksellers, and hundreds of thou
sands of copies are scattered over
the world; but when Carlyle brought
it to London in 1851, it was refused
almost contemptuously by three
prominent publishers. At length he
managed to get it into "Fraser's
Magazine the editor of which con-
veyed to the author the pleasing in
formation that his work had been re-
ceived with unqualified disapproba-
ton"
Many men," says Longfellow, do
not allow their principles to take root,
but pull them up every now and then,
as children do flowers they have
planted, to see If they are growing"
We must not only work but also
wait.

fectly, she probably came as near
greatness as many more talented
woman, and she surely came a great
deal nearer happiness than they.
But her kindness was not only
toward her husband. During the war
she was the angel of many a camp.
and during her life in the White
House she had a universal reputation
for generosity and eonsiderateness
for others.
on one occasion of public festivity
in Washington when she and her
husband were driving through the
streets in an open carriage they hap
pened to pass a poor woman stag
gering with intoXication. Mrs. Hayes
saw her and In spite of the festivity
of the occasion asked the driver to
stop at the curb and help the woman
into her carriage. Then, with the
unfortunate woman sitting at her
side, she took time to take her to n
home for just such derelicts, where
she could be properly taken care of.

ties the possibilities OF securing long
term loans at a low rate OF interest and
the final clearing up OF ones indebted
ness through the wise administration OF
his affairs under competent supervision
and advice, is the inspiration for move
ment just begun in this state to establish
one or more mortgage banks under the
general plan being worked out so sue
cessfully in the middle west by the Hi
nos Mortgage banks founded by George
Woodruff of Joliet
1t is hoped that the first bank of this
kind may be owned by the farmers of
the State and this is possible provided
they will subscribe the funds necessary
to make TIP the required capital stock
which should be from $4,000 to 100000
This would not appear to be difficult for
il each farm owner in the State will
purchase one share at $4,000 each there
would be a total capital OF S1,5oo,ooo
The present value of the Maine farms
is estimated to be SIeo,27Ioo4. divided
into 6o,oI6 farms of Io4 acres each.
4I,3oo of these farms are free from
mortgage and the remainder 1897 carry
mortgages in various amounts.
While farm mortgage is the safest
investment in the world, nevertheless the
business is unorganized and is carried on
BY large number OF real estate men,
lawyers and agents whose charges and
commissions, legal fees, and cost of
abstract examination are sometimes
burdensome
The rate of interest paid by the farmer
is OCCASIONALLY high and the period of
time for which the mortgage runs is
usually short one necessitating frequent
renewals with additional commissions,
legal and abstract charges Further
more from the standpoint of the investor
the mortgage while perfectly safe, is
nevertheless rather cumbersome, the in
terest is not always paid promptly, and it
is impossible at times for the holder of
a mortgage to sell it and get his money
on short notice
We desire to organize THE FARM
Frs LAND BANK to help remedy
the defects in the Maine mortgage
business and model this bank after the

Loans Secured by Mortgage Bank
Bonds.
The business OF this bank will consist
in loaning money on farms and homes
located within the limits of the state OF
Maine and obtaining the money to loan
not from deposits as is done by other
banks but by the sale OF its mortgage
bank bonds which will be the direct
obligation of the company being secured
by its entire capital and surplus, and
which will be further secured by the
deposit OF mortgages as collateral with
some Trust company or savings bank
to be later selected.
The Farmers Land Bank will serve
the farmer and the home owner by loan
ing on long time amortization principal
which has proved such tremendous
success in nearly every civilized coun-
try in the world and it also serves the
investor by furnishing him with all the
safety of an old time mortgage invest
ment combined with the convenience of
a modern, readily marketable bond with
interest coupons attached
In Europe these mortgages run 90
years. but subject, however, to the am
irritation principal and the business has
been carried on for $50 years by the
great European mortgage banks without
the loss OF dollar to the investor.
However, it is not proposed to issue
these loans for longer than 30 years and
the workings may be illustrated by the
case of a farmer whose credit and the
condition of whose land makes it possible
for him to apply to the Farmers Land
Bank for loan at comparatively low
rate of interest and for this period OF
time 1t is provided that this loan be

but continue to run until the semi annual
Payments have cleared the farm of debts
The farmer will never have to pay any
renewal commissions, will never have
tc go to the expense of bringing down
his abstract or having it examined every
few years as at present, and will forever
be relieved of any anxiety lest he fail
t. meet the mortgage when due and
consequently lose the farm.

MERELY COMMENT

Perhaps Big Business counted on
O'Hara being as cowardly as itself
and pictured him trembling with fear
when he was threatened.
Instead of which, o'Hara called the.
bluff and Big Business is now doing
the willing.
Andy Lawrence once mournfulIy
remarked that he supposed he 'fhad
kicked Barratt O'Hara out of his of
fee into the governors chair"
And if all the Big Business crooks,
in Illinois keep after O'Hara this way
Andy may be shown to have been
dead right.
The Inter-Ocean takes UP over a
column in editorially "regretting an
exposure which so manifestly impairs
Mr.. O'Hara's usefulness in a cause
which needs all the friends it can
get"
After which the Inter- Ocean goes
on to bewail the methods used by
the 0'Hara commission.
As has been remarked before in
this column, the l. o. isn't a news
paper; it's a hang over.
