TJens on Crops.
- " From the Charlotte Observer.
If giving liens on crops before
they are made, mortgsrging the only
horse or mule and the milk cow,
does not ruin the farmers who do
such things it is almost a miracle.
But another ruinous practice is that
of buying corn, meat and flour, in
order that all the time may be devo
ted to producing cotton and tobacco.
On that point the following para
graph of the States ville Landmark
is sensible and timely: " v.
"It is pelrfectiy Marmihg to c6te
the growing tendency among the
farmers in this section of the State
toward the" policy which has
brought wreck arid ruin to the farm
ers in the East and reduced many
of those in South Carolina to beg
gary. We allude, of course, to the
system of buying corn, meat and
flour, giving mortgages oa all they
.have to secure payment in the fall,
and pay heavy interest on the notes.
We tell our farmers solemnly that
they are. inviting certain disaster
when they go into this sort of busi
ness. In sections where cotton
grows luxuriantly, or where the
farmers have acquired, by long ex
perience, great skill in handling
tobacco, or where grain, and grass
do not flourish, this kind of thing
can be excused; but here no plausi
ble reason can be given for such fa
tuity. We implore our farmers to
stop it. Fortunately, in this coun
ty, the evil is riot yet very great,
but, as has been said, it is growing

OUa NATIONAL DEBT.
Th PobU of Other Nations Pr Cap'ta
Indebtedness A Mystery .
- Cor.. Cincinnati Times-Star.. , t
The decrease of the public debt in the
fiscal year that is to end in eight weeks
will be over $60,000,000. This will not
be so great as in some former years, bat it
is faster than we generally suppose. Fire
million of dollars a month is $166,000 a
day, or $100 a minute..; That la a pretty
rapid rate at which to be extinguishing
the public debt, in spite of the people
who are crying all the time that our debt
is growing less in an imperceptible way.
People who are in the habit of groaning
about our debt I eing something too great
to bear will do well to. inquire about the
debts of other nations. Take Italy, for
instance. Her debt is over $2,000,000,000.
or about three times as much per head as
our own. Russia, who is apparently ea
ger for war has a debt of $3,500,000,000.
Great Britain, whose population is but
83,000,000 against our 55,000,000, has a
debt of about four times as much per head
as we have, and yet Great Britain is sup-
Eosed to be exceptionally well oil. France,'
rilliant and elastic France, whose recov
ery from, a terrible war. a few years ago
has been the wonder of the world, is car
rying a debt of $4,750,000,000, or five
times as muc'h per head as our country is
carrying. Our debt is about $25 per head
all round, that of Russia almost $40
Eer head, thatef Italy nearly $75 per
ead, that of Great Britain $100 apiece,
and that of France about $130 per citi
zea- The interest charged on a debt of
this sort is something enomous, more
than the people can stand ui der for any
great length of time. .
Of our debt only a little oyer a billion
bears interest, or to be exact $1,196,150,
850. Of this only as much as $250, 000,
000 bears as much as 4 per cent interest
It is interesting to soe. how. much money
remains- in the treasury unclaimed, after
the interest has ceased to accrue. On some
of this the interest ceased a half century
a.rot while on large sums interest has not
accumulated for twenty years, audyetthe
principal nas never Decn asKea lor.

"That's a mystery, " he answered, with
a smile. "I suppose some of it has been
lost or stolen, some of it burned ur. some
of it stuck away in forgotten places, per
haps some is held by people who do not
know that interest has ceased on it, or
who ao not Know that thev have the
bonds at all. There sometimes come to
us some of these that have come to. the
light by some curious turn in the wheel of
fortune. Of course, . a very considerable
portion of them will never turn up or be
presented for payment. "

- An incident at the new opera house the
other day exhibited to good advantage a
phase of human nature, A loiterer stood
gazing la at the open door in the rear of
the stage. Immediately below the door
was an opO cellar window, out of which
a workman occasionally threw a shovel
ful of dirt- Of course,' the loiterer was
not aware of the workman's operations,
but in. a few minutes he received notifica
tion thereof, in the shape of a mass of
dirt colliding with his legs. ' lie stepped
back, but another loiterer took his place.
In a few minutes he, too, was - brushing
mud from his pantaloons, while No. 1
walked away, grinning. . Still another
man came up, unaware of the fate of his
predecessors, and soon had an experience
Identical with theirs. No. 2 then walked
away, in his glee at the mishap of No. 3,
entirely forgetting .his' own soiled gar
ments. " -
- The next comer was - fat; flashily
dressed sporting man, who wears good
clothes and is very proud of them. He,
too, peered in at tne stage door, and posed
as if he might be the proprietor of the
building on dress parade. But : the un
seen wielder of the shovel in the cellar be
low was no respecter of persons, and by
this time his spade had reached moist
earth. The result was a couple of quarts
of wet, dripping .clay plastered profusely
upon the observers s spring pantaloons
from the knees downward. No. 8. who,
of course, stood handy by waiting for the
fun, did something more than smile. ' Be
laughed outright v
" You - seem to think it funny, don't
youf " growled the soiled sport savagely.
You might have told a feller. "
"There didn't anybody tell me, " replied
No. 8, continuing his laughter.
Such is human nature.
' - Chicago Timss. ,
Miss Louise Imogene Gulney, some
four or five years ago sent to The Boston
Transcript a poem in imitation of the
style of Mr. T. B. Aldrich. The rhyme
was tucked into the pigeonhole of an edi
torial desk with Mr. Aldrich's name on it
until its authorship was forgotten. One
of the traditions of The Transcript, which
with true Boston conservatism is clung to
with unwavering pertinacity, is the print
ing every Saturday of a set of poetic
ferns from well known authors. One
usy day Miss Guiney's verses were inad
vertently dragged from their retirement
and printed, the signature of Mr. Aldrich
still clinging to them. They were as fol
lows: -
, TWO DOLLS.
There wai a golden god. brave wrought
From out the worker's cunning thought,
That shattered fell, by lightning cleft,
. And bore its temp'e to the ground.
Dear heart! my words are faint and few;
There was a stately child we knew,
Whose hopeless house, of him bereft,
Lie ruined now the year around.
This really is, to use Miss -Guiney's own
word, "quite Aldrichistic; " but the amus
ing part of the matter is that it deceived
Mr. Aldrich himself, who wrote to the
editor of The Transcript asking where the
lines were found, adding that he "seemed
to remember writing them, but he could
not recall them, ana he had no copy of
them. " Explanations and a good deal
of harmless laughter followed, Mr. Aid
rich joining in the mirth as heartily as
anyone.

be of fine texture and quality.
