To the Ertitor of the Indianapolis Journal No measure now before our Legislature, or likely to come before it, is of so much importance to home interests as that which proposes to protect home capital by taxing all foreign capital that seeks investment here in the shape of loans. We have plenty of homo capital for all practical purposes, bnt it is crowded out of market by the cheap foreign capital that finds a better market here than it ean at home. It must be remembered that the influx of foreign capital to any considerable oxtout dates back only about twenty-live years. Until this began our home capital found easer borrowers at satifactory rates, from 10 to 15 and often 24 per cent. No matter what the nsury laws dictate, they cut no figure in tho rates of interest. If the demand is sufficient, and the supply limited, there is always a way to get the interest. In the East there is often a great accumulation of capital in savings banks, bringing not over 3 or 4 per cent. This is the small savings of comparatively poor men, but there is little demand for money there. The rich seldom have money to lend; they use it in productive business. About twenty to twenty-live years ago these savings banks and a kind of loan association began to send their funds to the West. The result was that home capital lost itscommand of tne market, and interest went down to a ruinously low figure, ' eo that it is more difficult to get 6 per cent. now than it was 12 per cent. then. Even our school funds so a begging at C per cent., for. these Eastern funds are furnished at 5, and in many cases at even 3 per cent. Let the Legislature protect our home capital. We pay taxes on our notes and mortgages; why should they come here and take tho bread from our mouths by furnishing money at ruinously low rates? Of course, they will not furnish any 5 per cent, or even 6 per cent, money when they have to pay 2 per cent, tax on it. I believe in protecting borne labor by taxing imported labor, and home capital by taxing imported capital. No danger of their withdrawing their funds, they will only add tbat much to the rate of interest, thus siving us who have money to loan a chance to get a living rate of interest. So says the lirm of Live & Let Live, iNDiAXAroLis, Jan. 21. INSURANCE KATES. The IffrishtuTe Unred to Grant Relief by Opening the Way for Competition. To the TMitor of the Inrtianarvolls Journal: Is it not about time for the Legislature to call a halt on the insurance companies? The present insurance law9 of Indiana are the result of a combined cfl'ort on the part of the insurance agents of the State. The bill was prepared and lobbied through by these agents. The object of the bill was to abut out competition, and having accomplished this purpsse, they next turn their attention to fixing a board in each county to determine ratee. These rates are at least per cent, too high; but there is no appeal, as there is no competition. Now, it is a well-known fa:t tbat there are but two cities in the United States where the receipts from insurance policies will pay the losses by lire. Then, who pays the money tbat forms the large assets of insurance companies? The country merchants and business people, and in order to do this they are taxed too hich. Since the day when the serpent tempted Eve, humanity has ever sought to cloak wrongdoing with fiorue plausible excuse. The excuse for the present law was asserted to be to protect the people from irresponsible outside companies. Now, I submit as a proposition whether the business men of Indiana are not as capable of protecting themselves against irresponsible insurance companies us the Legislature is. llusiness men are not "suckers" to be taken in by any irresponsible company that otters to do business with them. The Legifilatore, in protecting people aeainst wild-cat companies, failed to provide any relief lrom the cormorants who are tilling their pockets as insurance agents at home. No longer ago than the last campaign a circular was sent out by a Republican insurance agent of Indianapolis to insurance agents all over the State. asking them to support tho Democratic candidate for Auditor of State, not beoause he was a Democrat, but becanee ho was known to be favorable to the present law and the present grinding insurance boards. I will admit that the present law is a line thing for the Auditor of State and the county clerks, but it is "tough" on the people. Cannot the present Legislature allord ns some relief! There is a tine and imprisonment for an outside company to solicit business in the Mate without complying with the laws; now let the law be so amended as to make it unlawful for inauranco ag?nts to organize themselves into boards to tlx rates of insurance. Give us competition; that la all wo ask. iliiKCHANT. WinuiessTEK, Ind., Jan. 20. A Need for a Ierve Tonic. Nct York WcrM.

A report on tbo common adulteration of lard was made by City Chemist lien ton to the Hoard of Health yesterday. It says that lard is ruado from the pure fat of the common hog. and is generally sold in two grades, known a one and two. Pure lard has no tendency to become rancid, is of a pure white color, and has scarcely any odor. Among the things used in its adulteration. water, starch, plaster of pans, chalk. baryta, salt and -cotton-soed oil are the commonest. Tne chemist goes on to give a number of technical tests of its purity, and ends with the pica that it will soon become necessary for the city to have laboratories of inspection to regulate the impurities in food.
