To the Editor of The Chicaao Tribune Bmt: In taking o xamble throuf;h Union and Lincoln Parks; the following points for rofor- mation suggested tbemselvos: Tirst, ns to Unton Park—the carringe-gatos should bo closed and kept closed, for the reasons that tho park is too emall for ndrive ; that the dust raieed by vohiclos i# vory annoying to pedoatrians, aud in- jurious to plants and flowors ; that women and espoolally obildren are in constaunt dangor of be- ing ran down by carriagos and horacs—so much no, indoed, that thoy do not go into the park inany groat numbers, though it should be thoir special United Stutes and Great Britan and the Duminfonof | it ~mny be d.

Thero are, Lowever, uiomlly number of com- ‘mon-gones people who boliovo that the system upon which theso associations aro bnsed is s cunningly-dovieod scheme, vory plausible’ in its character, but, novertheloss, shonoat in its conception, false in ity gonoral conclusions, and ruinous to every poor man who has the tomority to take & loan, or loans, from thom. Tho ropro- seutations that the ropayments of, loans aro not required, and that tho borrower shares in the profits of tho Associatlon, are not tmo in any partioular, the atatement of Mr. Fronch to tho coutrary notwithstanding. A moment's reflection must convince every sound thinking man that tho weokly or monthly duos paid in aro nothing moro or less than so much of the principal borrowed, whiok, rdded to tho intoreat, tobe paid woekly or monthly on tho loan, will at tho end of 100 consocoutivo months make tho aggregate of pnymonts equal to the actual amount of ‘monoy loaned, togother with the dlscount or promium bid—for priority of loan—edded theroto.
