WHAT is 4 BANK ?-The common law
defines it TO be an artificial person capable
of contracting and being contracted with.
and liable for itsiindebtedness to the full
extent of its means. Thebroken brokers
and commercial gamblers say tits an in-
stitution organized to loan them the means
to swindle honest labor outof the pro-
ducts. Of its toll. In point of fact the def
milton of a bank Of issue is that it is a GER
tain numberofpefsons who are authorized
By the Legislature to issue notes of hand
tospass by delivery in double or treble
the amount Of their capital and receive
twice oil three times las much
interest as other citizens areauthorized
to receive. When the managers and
owners get into Trouble they are TO be ex-
empted from the ordinary liability Of per-
sons. They must not Be compelled to
pay their debts because they owe more
than other people and payment would go
hard with them. They ought I'd stop
payment when they find II a los9ing BUSH
ness. but those who owe" them must
plank up. II is the duty q the very PEG
pie whom they refuse to pay to legdfize
their departure from common honesty

which have 50 kindly promised to pay
