Government wants s., 0OO 900 to meet some obliga-
lions dee In England and Mr. Gait has devised way TO raise
this SUN without resorng loan adding TO tie volume
Of currency in the Province.
The scheme is to issue s5 payable specie
at Montreal and Toronto by the banks which asked
assume the place equal amount Of eir own tc
be withdrawn from circulation.
the first glance this scheme appears 70 be good one i0f
does not initiate tie currency Of tie Province, and the new
notes being payable IN specie form sound circulating me

dear Of floating s O0o0 Of Government notes The
that Government vii i've per cent interest or
note tar OF one per cent Beside agencies

Tie scheme is clever and think original but It
bear close investigation The main points against It a.
