And it is not easy to say whether we have a tougber crow to pick with Maryland for her restrictive railrond policy or for fastening , wpon-us her old usury law. Bat it is mot the { that State that we have comtinust to sutler so patiently under the incubus of that faw for so many years, Nor is it exactly the fault of Congress, beyond a certain careless. bese im regard to District measures, that allows them to go over from one session to another: especially when nobody takes the :roable to remind them of the necessity tor action upon particular matters. We suppose that were two oF three of our Ieading business men to devote a few hours to explaining to members the oppressive weight upon business interests here of this antiquated law of Queer Anne's time, there would not be the slightest difficulty tm effecting its repeal. ut what is every- body's Dusiness is nobody’s business, and so 10 ail hkelthood the bill now before Congre- ‘Will remain stranded snuply for the want ¢f some friendly Band to give it a push.

Fohtical economy bas long since exploded the ides that a law dictating the price or earnings oney is of any advantage to the borrower. I: nas bees abundantly demonstrated that the | usury nw really throws the borrower into the | hand of the most rapacious sharks of the money-lending tribe, those who, taking the | chances that the law will not be enforced, bleed ther victims to the extentof from forty to sixty pet cent. Meantime those who have money | Which they are wilting to lend at a moderate interest (but not at 6 per cent. when Govern | ment itself pays 7.3-I0)) are deterred from doing © by the fear of incurring the penalties of this gnm old Ty law of 04. As a consequence men of capital elsewhere decline to lend money tere to carry on needed improvements: and worse yet a large amount of money is sent away from here to be invested where the usury | laws have been abandoned. and the principle established that money, like anything else, is worth jast what it will fetch Will not some ef Our business men gives little of their time yo behalf of the bili before Congress They cen bring forward conclusive facts, trom their own knowledge, to demonstrate to Congress. @ men and Congressional committees the harm Gene to District interests by this relic of the feudal ages, the old usury law. of S took place yesterday in the Legislatures of New York, Indiana, Maine, Delaware, Missouri, Massachasetts, Minnesota, Penusyivani-, Michigan and Nebraséa.
