■ami of our laical Itepreseuta-

lUs lath Lrgislatars as a body
that they shall eaaet a law rente
dying Ikih great and crying evil.
If a man is forced to sell bis lit
tie all, give him a chance to get
all for it lie eau l»y giving ample
notice of aale through a newspa-
l»«r, If lltere lie oua in the county;
but don't leave hint at the re
morseleas mercy of the muu who
ie having him sold out for a trif-
ling mini, by simply requiring the
officer* of the law to |m*t said no
Hereof sale, in wilting, upnl three
or four places in the county.
This amounts to next to no no-
tice at all, for the reason that iu a
niajonty .ol instances thcae node
es arc written in un almost lllegi
hie band, and for the lurthur red
non that if I have a mortgage on
John Smith's property fora small
sum, and desire to become the
owner of that prn|ierty, I either
tare down or have tore doe a the
notioeof nale'iu lea* than twenty-
four hours after it ha* been |m»M-
ed up, ami alien tbo day of nale
rolls around, I have no compcli-
lion and bay poor John's proper
ty at one fontlli of w hat it is re
ally worth, and the |M»«»r fellow
haa no remedy under Waxen.
We say that this is a shunn and
a disgrace, and umouAta to little
less than legali/.i*l robbery.
“Oh, I ex|MTtcd," probably some
demagegleul economist iu Ibr
legislature will nay, “that Hie
newspaper* would be ilaiiioioii-
for a law like Ibis, because
they ei|ie«-t to feather tbeir oWii
nests." liut the legislator who
takes this position, works in the
interest of Hie moneyed man, And
not the poor unfortunate man
who is sold out under the Slierill's
hammer.
It is very true that the uctrs-
|Ni|H'is would be In-ueliteil limoiue
localities ill the Elute by a law
like this, but with nmli a law the
unfortunate man who is being
sold enl will iiiuke ten dollar*, in
all probability, to where the
newspaper would make one, for
the reason that a sufficient notice
of the sale would nttiael compel!-
Hou ou the day of sale and cause
the pro|M>ity to bring something
like its value; whereas, under the
present system, there is generally
net more than one ptm-haser on
hand, and lie is the uiau who mi
der tlie law ia lining Ihe sale
made, aud as a matter ol course
gets the propety at Ins own
(trice. Tho man who holds Hie
mortgage i* the only |M‘r*ou who
Itossibly could be injured by tlie
enactment of a law like this, as it
would prevent him from getting
aomelking for nothing, and if it is
to lie the settled . policy of the
Slate lloverumeiit to legislate to
make the rich richer, and the
poor poorer, as it has done Inns
tofoiw by refusing to pass a law
requiting all forced sales to be
published in a newspaper, why,
the sooner the people are made
acquainted with this fact the bet
ter It will b* for them, in order
that they may take the ncceaaa
ry ste|ie for self protection.
. These fumed sale notioes should
be published not more than three
successive weeks, brlore the day
of sale in a weekly pn|ier, anil the
preen of the Stale should not heal
loved to charge more than seven
If Ive reels per a square of lap-
