The science of legislation out here is rather crude. Our "assembled wisdom" have a hearty contempt for the verbose law-makers of the East, and, as the resnlt, the simplicity of our acts" is only equaled by the strange fix in which they sometimes put things. A few years ago a statuto was passed to regulate the sale of liquors. One of its provisions after imposing a fine of $25 for sales of liquor to minors, and that complaints foi the offense should be made before a justice of the peace, wound up thus "And on proof of violation of said section, or any part thereof, the justice shall render judgment for the whole amount of fine and costs, and be committal to the common jail until the sum ii ]Hiid .r'

Capital safely invested among the people of the West,"

Peculiarly adapt it to the wants of the citizens of Terre-Hnute and Vigo cdunty. The character of the officers and stockholders of the De Soto (some of thein tlie most wealthy business men of the West) is a sufficient guarantee of Its reliability.

The West can do better for the assured than the East, because Western Companies can lend their money at a much higher rate of interest than Eastern Companies do or can, unless they invest in the West, which most of the Eastern Companies are forbidden by their charters to do. Higher rates of interest allow of larger dividends, and the advantage which Western Companies have over Eastern in this particular, is clearly shown by the following estimate of money invested at different rates:

SI,000 invested for 50 years, at 6 per cent, compound interest, yields _U 4. (t 44 10 14 "Iv'i'

It can be seen" by*this statement that Western 'Companies* can give far better dividends than Eastern Companies. The difference of the surplus arising from different rates of interest is thus seen, under the operation of compound interest, to be wonderful.
