FINANCIAL.

Hold on a Jiffy! while your uncle pate in a word. This everlasting pother over the Balance of Trade which The Mail and Express are making, is getting tiresome. It is an interesting subject, but these fellows don't know bow to write •bout it. T. T. knows all about the financial problem. He has scratched his head longer and harder than all these fellows put together. He began digging about the roots of his financial ideas, with his finger nails, long before the fellow who writes about the "Topics of the Times" in The Mail knew there wassuoh a thing as finance, and ere the dim star which appeared in The Mall last week sent oat its first flickering ray. T. T. was old at this business when the writer in the Express was a babe at the breast, and the balance of trade between him and his mother was always against him, and he consequently grew fat and she lean. By the way, it is very possible, in fact very probable, that the idea that the way for individuals and nations to increase in wealth is to keep as large a balance of trade against them as possible, first dawned upon his youthful mind by observing how well he thrived physically by making this the principle of action between himself and his moth, er. But although he began at this early day to meditate on financial problems, and is consequently wiser in these matters than his antagonists in The Mail, yot even be does not know as much about finance as T. T. T. T. actually knows more than the Express thinks it knows. This seemingly boastful spirit may not appear to be in harmony with the usual modesty of T. T., but T. T. wants it plainly understood that, on this one subject he is authority. Some other things be may not know, but finance he does know, and anybody who does not agree with T. T. on this subject is an ass, a knave, or a tool of the money power.

It was neoessary to enter into this explanation in order that proper weight be given to what T. T. has to say on this voxed question, and he hopes that, when ho has had his say, the matter will be dropped, for T. T. knows that he Is right and he don't want any argument about it. T. T. will not tolerate any argument iu reply.

THB KXl'RBSS IS RIGHT,

And these Mall editors and contributors are wrong. When the balance of trade is against a nation it is getting rich, just as the infant grows fat while the mother grows lean. The Express says that it can "oaaily show the fundamental error in the popular theory." Incidentally here is a strong and convincing argument against the Idea that a nation ia prosperous when the balance of trade is in its favor. This is the "popular theory." That is, people generally think a nation is prosperous when it sells more than it buys. And the very faot that people think so is evidence, almost proof positive, tbat it is not so. The fact is that thore is no subject about which the mass of people are so ignorant as about finance, and therefore a "popular theory" must be wrong, and therefore it follows, "as the night the day," that the popular theory tbat nations are prosperous when they export more than they import, la filae. Common people cannot understand these things. It is very natural tbat a plain, uneduoated farmer should think tbat he is getting rich, when, alter selling his oorn and wheat, mid buying bis supplies for the year, he finds he has sold mure than he bought) aud that tbe balance of trade in hto favor is a thousand dollars. But he is mistaken. It is only wheu he buys more than he soils, and keeps the balance of trade against him that he to getting rich, A careful study of the following example will make it very plain.

A bushel of wheat is worth a dollar at the field. A termer sell* that buahel of wheat, that is, he exports a dollar's worth. He gets ten oents for taking it to market. He takes his pay In osUoo, and gets adollax and ten oents worth of calico. It is worth half as muoh to carry the oalioo homo as it was to carry the wheat to market, that la five oents. 80

when he gets home be has a dollar and fifteen oents worth of calico. He has exported a dollar's worth of wheat, and imported a dollar and fifteen oents worth of calico. Tbe balance of trade against himis fifteen cents, and that is just the amount tbat he has made.

Now there's an exampleas good as the Express gave, and if anybody can show sny falaey in that argument let him do it. If he cannot, then let him bold his peace forever. -And let these farmers know tbat tbe way to get rich is to buy all they can, and make tbe balance of trade against them as large as possible. Tbe fact is that UncleSam might just as well have have bad a thousand dollars, or several million dollars in clean cash in his pocket as to be over head and ears in debt. If he had just had the wisdom to start in business a hundred and one years ago npon the principle that it is the balance of trade which is against a nation tbat indicates its prosperity, there is no end to- tbe riches he might now possess. If law bad been passed forbidding all exports, and another law passed requiring the people to buy foreign goods, then tbe balance of trade would have been tremendously against us all tbe time, and we should have been growing rich tremendously fast. Now that is tbe way to pay the debt. Stop exports so fsr ss possible, and incresse imports to the fullest extent. Stop sending abroad oorn, wheat and beef, but encourage the people to buy foreign silks, velvets, wine, tea and coffee, and it will be but a few years before we will have a balance of trade against us big enough to pay the national debt, and, tbat done, in a few years more, by tbe same method, Uncle Sam will be rich enough to give us all a farm, or a newspaper. T. T. msy not live to see that day, but there is no reason in the world, save the stupidity of our legislstors and the tyranny of the money power, why tbat prosperous day should not speedily dawn. T. T. has not studied finance, lo, these many years, for nothing. The wsy to get nstional and individual prosperity is to keep the balance of trade heavily against us.

Topics of the Times.

,. rv- vf. I'.fi «KH JOHN AND JONATHAN. The current number of the North American Review contains an article from tbe pen of Hon. Wm. E. Gladstone, the English statesman and writer, in whioh the resemblances and differences between tbe British and American political systems are discussed. The writer admits that America alone can, and probably will, wrest the commercial primacy from England by virtue of her superior resources and strength. Certainly this is not a new idea to Americans, but it oomea with added force from an Englishman of Mr. Gladstone's political sagacity. When one compares the United States ot to-day with what they were when Hamilton wrote the Federalist, and then looks forward to what they may become a hundred years hence, if the Union is preserved in its Integrity, he gains a new conception of tbo comprehensive and far-sighted statesmanship of the oonstltutionsl fathers. Or can it be said of them that "they bnilded better than they knew?"

PICTURE.

Of the Hon. Wm. H. English, who Is said to be in training for tbe United States Senatorshlp, ss against Mr. Voorheee, in case the next Legislature is Democratic, a correspondent of tbe Cincinnati Gazette writes as follows: "Long ago Mr. English determined never to be taken from his bedroom by desperate men bent on robbing hia bank. So ne bad his house barricaded., He occupies the northesst front room on tbe second floor, and in the evening tbe barred windows and heavily ironed door can easily be seen from the street. As well might me attempt to break into a jail. The idea, possibly, was a good one, as it may have saved him the alternative ot disclosing the combination of tbe bank's safe, or having his brains blowed out. But to see him of an evening sitting alone upon tbe cold stone steps of bis mansion, bereft of family, but wedded to his hundreds of thousands, one instinotlvely shudders at tbe picture, and thanks heaven for his little, with a warm hearth and unbarred windows."

Who would not echo the words of the writer? Nothing Is truer than that Providence does not bestow all its gilts upon tbe few.

LAND OWNERSHIP.

Among the many excellent things which Senator Blaine told the people at Minneapolis the other day was this. He said: "You are land owners, free holders, a proud title that comes to us with centuries of civilisation and strength—a title that every man in this country should make it hia otgect to acquire and honor. Self-government among the owners of the soil in America is an instinct, and where that ownerahip Is widely distributed good government to the role." This sentiment to worthy of special consideration just at this Ume, when there is a general avemion to the owning of real estate, particularly In tbe towns and cities. It la a matter observation that it to now of oommon

cheaper to rent than to be the owner of the bouse in which one Uvea. Andes a mere matter of dollars and oents there can be no doubt but this is true. Taxes, insurance and the intereeton the money invested in a home exceed by considerable tbe amount for whleh the property oan be rented. It so chances, therefore, thst msny people who live In bousss owned by others esteem themselves, more fortunste than their richer neighbors. This Is true in part, but not wholly so. At present most real estate is not profitable as a business Investment. It returns very small dividends. But it Is always profitable for a man to own bis own home, even though it cost him more than to rent and tbe people who can afford to own their homes but live in rented houses because it is cheaper, make a great mistske. There can hardly be a home, in the true sense, where the fsmily is kept continually moving about from house to house and from neighborhood te neighborhood. A home requires permanency and a sense of ownership. There must be a growth and development about it, going on for along period. Now a tree is planted, again an arbor is built, tbe house is remodeled, in some psrtioular. The eye of the owner is oonstsntly on tbe watch how he can make his home more elegant and comfortable. He does not begrudge tbe outlay of money and labor, because be expects to live there for a long, time, perhaps all his life, and he knows that he will be recompensed. Nor doea he grieve over his taxes and insurance, be cause he is willing to contribute his share towards maintaing good government in the community where he lives. Tbe renter feels differently. He will not expend money to mske improvements, for tbat would be bettering another man's property at bis own expense, and besides there is no certainty how long he would enjoy them. Thus it is that rented houses generally run down so fast and get shabbier all the time Mr. Blaine Is right. It Is a good thing for the individual and for the publie for every man to own bis bo tee or bis farm, and it ought to be one of the first thoughts of every wedded pair to work towards the attainment of tbat end.

THOUSANDS OF THEM,. From an Eagle letter.
