We would call attention TO the follow.

by distinguished statesmen. They show
how consistent some Of them have been.
Georgia Constitutionalist.
"Banks, and other vile freaks have
thrown The majority into the hands Of
those who were shapen IN toryism, and in
British idoldtry did their mothers conceipe
them" JOHN ADAMS,
"As soon as the bank charter was OBJ
tained,its friends begun to build up prince.
~ fortunes for themselves at the cos, of
The widow and orphan, and all honest
persons who had subscribed for stock.
The people have furnished thirteen per,
sons "a majority of the directors with a
cudgeI 10 break their own heads: 70, they
can fix the value of every acre of land
from Florida to the Lake Of the woods"
NILES REGISTER, 1919.
"For a long time I saw with pain The
advances Of an arislocraiic moneyed in
siituion, which threatened to cast poi~
sonous mIldew over our precious liberties.
They would have rendered our fair coun.
try passive instrument in their HANDS,
in which case freedom would have van
ished from amoug u.s."
GEN. LAFAYETTE, 1884,
"The establishment of National Bank
not being constitutional, and no: being, in
his opinion, the proper remedy, for the
then existing evils, he proceeded to ex-
anime what it was"
DANIEL WEBSTER, 1915.
John Randolph warned Congress a.
gaiust establishing that Bank, and The
truth of his bodings seems likely to be
fearfully verified. "Charter bank, sad

let it establish and learn it's power. and
then find It you can, means 10 dell the
cat.' 1t will be beyond your power, said
he--It will over awe your Congress and
laugh at your laws"
Mr.. Randolph, If he had survived an
other year, would have seen his prophecy
verified.
"What ! am ! to think Of mOneyed
