A Needed Reform In Alabama.
An Alabama statute law gives the
debtor two years in which to redeem his
property after it ha« been soli under a
mortgage. It now seems that an effort
w ill be made to have this law repealed,
or at lea-t so amended as to give the
debtor the right to waive the equity of
redemption.
White the law was intended for the
re.ief of borrowers it has turned out to
I«e, lik • all other restrictions upon busi
ness, a hardship and a disadvantage in
stead.
Col. I). S. Troy, one of the ablest law
yers of Alabama, published a letter in
the Montgomery Diepatch upon this im
portant Riibj><rt a short time ago, in
which the bad effect of the law wasciear-
y established. It is time for Alabama
to strike off this old shackle and leave
her citizens free to make the most of
their property.
The following extract from Col. Troy’s
letter contains the gist of his argument •
“I practiced law for over thirty-five
years, and during all that time a great
many sales under judgments, decrees and :
foreclosures fell under my observation, j
but I ca mot retail a single instance in j
which the debtor availed himself of tha j
statutory right of redemption. Other 1
creditors have done it frequently, but
where the unfortunate creditor is so far
driven to the wall as to submit to,
a forced sale of his land he is too
badly cripp cd financially to be able j
to re ieem within two years.
“The experience of other lawyers i~ 1
1 he same as my own. I have not found
one who could recall an instance in
whHi th debtor bad exercised the stat- j
utory right of redemption for his own
benefit.

The New York Sun seem? to be prin
cipal reliance of the Republicans in this
campaign, so far as New Yoi£ is con
cerned. The Sun is a very attractive pa-
l»er to Republicans. They praise it,
quote it, and," it is said, circulate it. The
Baltimore I Jerald say?:
“ Kditcr I tana, of the New York Sun,
has been credited in a good many quar
ter- with the defeat of Gen. Hancock in
1880. Will he be equally successful in
slaughtering the Democratic candidate
in 1888 ?”
It seems that the Republicans count
upon the treachery of the Sun as one of
the certain factor 3 in every Presidential
campaign. The Sun may have defeated
Hancock in 1880, it certainly tried to de
feat Cleveland in 1884, and it appears
to be trying to defeat him in 1888 ; but
we l>elieve its fangs were drawn in 1884,
and now its eup|>ort is far more to be
dreaded than its opposition. The Sun has
been so unfortunate as to be found out
and if it has wielded anv influence dur-
-,d. In that case it Bets generally show “which way the
-s.” wind blows,” and if this saying is true,
enable the average President Cleveland i a pretty -are of hi®

of the case is about as apt an illustration
of the burdensome character of our pres

we rind that it is taxed 73 per cent of

one of the thousand ‘injustices and rne-

Heckles* Ginning.
It is a fact well known to e
that farmers often lose from a
a haif cent a pound on their ci
reckless ginning.
The cotton is carried to crowded public
gins, which are run at a high rate of
speed. Tne cotton is jerked through the
saws and the fibre cut. This causes the
cotton to be nappy and seriously injures
the sample. When the cotton is wet>
the effect of reckless ginning is even
more injurious to the sample.
This is a very important matter, and
one which should receive the attention

And I know, moreover, that for nearly
two years the wholesale price of American
salt i'n Toronto, Canada, was a dollar lower
per barrel than the same salt was selling
for on the Xew York side ofthelake. That
is, we produced it, shipped it across, pay
ing whatever portase. freights and trans
portation were required, and then sold it
to our Canadian neighbors at a dollar per
barrel less than it was sold to people on
cur shores. Certainly, gentlemen wi!l not
want a duty continued that enables that to
ce done.—Philadelphia Times.
