The following letter was written TO Com
mttee of gentlemen in North Carolina, in an
swer TO an inquiry referring to a statement
made by DR.. Hill. The nature of the statement
is explained in the letter.
WASHINGTON CRY, June 6, 1912.
Gentemen:--l have to acknowledge the receipt Of
your letter of I'd Of May, without postmark which
only reached me yesterday, in which you say that
DR.. Frederick Hill has declared in public meet
ing, that he heard (me) say in the Harrisburg Con-
vention, that CD was in favor of United States
Bank matter of expedency, and as the only
of regulating the exchanges in the restoration
of sound currency throughout the Union,' and de-
string either to admit deny the statement thus
made, so to relieve you from unintentional
in contradcting it.
In reply, have to say that from my first entering
the theatre of public life to the present moment,
have uniformly avowed the same oppion in all
places to all persons, and on all occasions where
have expressed An opinion concerning it viz that
Congress bad power conceded to il by the Constr
tuition, to Nncorpbrate Bank for the Union, or to
grant any corporate rights out Of the District of Co
umbia Territory of the United States. This
opinion has been and again expressed, in
the Virginia Legislature; in the House of Represen-
atives, and in the Senate of the United States by
votes, therein recorded, and speeches and reports
there made. 1t has also been avowed before popular
asse nb,ies, both orally and in writing; and now,
probably for the hundredth time, once declare,
that do not believe that Congress has the right to
charter Bank for the U. States by express grant,
nor by derivation, unless Of necessity shall
arise which do not believe arise--inti-
matcly associated with the existence of the Govern
ment. Such | am happy to say, was the opinion
Of Gen. Harrison, as expressed and published in his
Dayton speech during the late election and put forth
to the world in his address to the people of Cincin-
natl in 1922, and previously affirmed by his vote in
1919 in the House of Representatives motion
for scire Jcias to repeal the charter of the Bank,
WHEN had the pleasure to vote as he did
presume you must have misunderstood DIR. Hill,
in ascribng to the uterance of different scnti-
ments in Convention at Harrisburg j have no re-
collection of having opened my lips in that body on
any subject whatever. In short, do state resting
upon my memory, which is not apt 10 deceive, that
was perfectly and entirely silent in that Convention
| will add further, that was nominated to the
| Vice Presidency most unexpectedly to myself-was
wholly unquestioned about my opinions and was
lected, as firmly believe, because of my uniform
opposition to broad construction of the Constitution
and my known advocacy of the principles of the good
old, honest, Republican party.
| am gentlemen, your fellow citizen,
JOHN TYLER.

THE BANK AND THE EXC HEQ UER.-No II

II has been seen from my first number how de-
ceptious was the hope of obtaining a realization
of Wing promises from the incorporation of
bank-lhe same promises were made from 1911,
when the charter of the first bank expired, to
1876 when The late bank was Incorporated.
sound currency was promised, and yet seven
years elapsed before this promise began to be
r, deemed. The exchanges were all to be regu
lated and vet they were never more disturbed
disadvanlageous to the country than during
that period. Let any man look at the table Of
any price current then extant. The exchanges
ranged from 1-2 per cent. to 10 per cent, de-
p ndent on the distance between cities. No ad
dition was made 10 the circulating medium, and
all who lived from the year 1919 to 1923 will
well remember the heavy pressure upon the
community and every branch of industry.
Town property particularly deprecated lots in
the different cities fell from enormous prices
down to prces-merely nominal. Richmond, in
Virginia, suffered the most severely of all places
north of Alabama thousands were reduced to
poverty, and yet a United States bank had been
in operation for from three to six years. What
more the country could promise itself at this
time from similar institution has already been
shown, and yet how many thousands of I'M
thinking men really believe thai bank is the
panacea for all the evils which afflct us ! How
busy is the demagogue in his efforts TO give an
extensive spread to this opinion ! The press is
actively engaged in the effort, and thousands
who never saw any thing but gross violation
of the Constitution, in an act of incorporation,
now make themselves hoarse by shouting for a
bank.
The human mind is most extraordinary in its
structure. The ills of any system make but
slight impression, while glimpse of benefit is
never forgotten. For seven years, commencing
with 1925, and terminating with 1882, the hank
was prosperous; specie payments had previous
ly been resumed by the State banks, and large
circulation was kept out by Mr.. Bdde A
change, however, shortly after succeeded; the
evils by which the country is now afflicted da-
ted back to 1892 The bank then put forth all
its means to obtain re-charter Money was
loaned TO members of Congress in enormous
amounts; editors Of newspapers had their fifty
thousands dealt out to them. But all would not
do. The bank charter expired, aud then how
dsgraceful the scene which followed Large
sums were expended in order to corrupt legis-
latve assembly. The Legislature of Pennsyl-
vania is even now engaged in ferreting out the
frauds. |, has been recently shown that one
