Tii folly of the people in again tru-t-ing tic lc!i. .-r:itic party with power is once m tre brought ho.-ue to tlieir piK-ke;s anl their daily busin-.-ss avoca tions.

Our present Xaliona! Iiaiik syste!ii is the Ir'st that was ever invented. These n:!c areiro-hl in any j-tate ia the I'liion, evesi if the hank fails, yet it is gravely proposed by the party in power t let the country le jl .ded with wild-oat bank notes and -vc!itual!y drive the National bank ut of existence.

This sentence seems very iiiadispiate for stopping the w hole mil-roa-1 system of trai:sp;trtati--n through out tho country imd causing untold losi-s to the busincsvs interests of the entire community, simply because Mr. I'uliman and some of his men disa gree 1 up .i the question of wages It vrill stand a an object lo-so:i, however, for tviitoiiipialod strikes on inter-state railwav lines Thk Hem-Mrats having f:ile! the places under the government with their nephews and ii usees, their striki-rs and their hei-krs the rresident Lu issii -l nn order placing tho employes of tho Treasi.ry iV-partment under tho civil s-ervice, so that they cannot Iv removed by the nest administration. The swarm of gangers and storekeepers, insj..vtor jiii'l agents made msvssary by the in ternal revenue laws that now hold is sitious, are thus made permanent fix tures in their various otlicos. It will l-o rememlioreil that at tho -xp"ration of his former term Mr. Cleveland issued a similar order rela tive to railway dorks, and if President Harrison had not su-pi ndod it for ten days not a single lleptiblicau would now lo holding one of those p:sitioiis Now ho takis? time by the forelock, and all Reiuh!ioans having levn dismissed froiu the revenue service, he fixes hi own followers therein in tho middle of Lis administration, when the order -i:inot K' suspciided, except by his own sweet will. Tilt: verdict of the ins.ploat the polls 1 tst month was not only a condemna tion of the I ei ICS-ratio tariff policy, hit an e-jual c :ideni'.i'.iti-n of the .iuancial va-ws of tho leaders of that party. Notwithstanding, however, the President and his Secretary of the Tr-asury are fully Wnt ujon fon-ii g Osisoh-te IV-nnx-ratio finano'tal theories ui-.n tho eountry and bring l'k wi d--it state banks todi-placethe National Kmks and curse the ountry with si unsafe and rotten currency. I n accord ance with the President's theory, Sec retary Carlisle has franns! a bill which has been adopt oil by tho Committee Banking and orJerl-J t bo rxiKtd to tho Housr, whero preparations have i i j been iulf to rush it through with in- ! .toivntliastoan.l unom. pn.j-r uis- b arren s work on the birds and mam rossiou. Tho bill is of a two-fold na- . nmU 0fiie stats, an.l recommending a turv' National and Suite and content- j change in the soh.Kil law, making it i plates the i-uiil ? of notes by both Na- misdemeanor for school directors toejeet tional an 1 Slate bank-, but is so adjust- their children and near relative- iearhfer , .., ... . j: in r National currisicy, and one of the ill s' ruments to N u-d is t e mpel Na tional banks to -o!:tribntc to a guaran tee fund, whereby the solvent Kmks would have to guarantee the issues of badly manr.ged and insolvent institu tions, but State hacks would not have to put up a dollar in guarantee of the bills of other Kmks. This would vir tually prohibit National bank Mils, and encourage State I Kinks to put out their bills. Further, it d.K-s not limit issues of State Kinks, but does limit is-:ies of National banks to denominations of . fit) or more, thus depriving National but not State lianks of this kind of circu lation. It doe not tax State b snks, as it d.ies National banks to the extent of 1 percent, on their circulation. It dixsi not require State banks to keep their debits of legal tender notes in the Treasury, but allows them to dcp'sit with auy otlieia! the several stati-s may designate. These are the salient points of difference made in favor of State banks. The gleam of the wild-cat's eye is di-ccrnable throughout the en tire bill, and it might properly be des ignated "a blil to overthrow the Na tional banking system and snlstiuite therefor an irresponsible wild-cat cur rency.'' This bill has not N-cn favorably ootn mended by a single b inker or financier who has lv.vu called iijon to rtate his views U-fore the committee of the House, but notwithstanding Mr. Cleve land a:id his Secretary as-uioe to know more on this juestioii of banking than the men throughout the country m ho have given a life-time to the study of the subject Eidicale cf tie Fopaliits.
