Pendleton Practice.

Richard Smith, of the Cincinnati

made this fair hit at the chief of BOND
axers, Geo. Ii. Pendleton. He said:
The State taxes the National Banks
on their capital and surplus funds The
.tepublican Legislature passed that tax
aw. 1t was enforced last year for the
/ II time.
When the tax was assessed upon the
National Banks, our distinguished
sirnd, Mr.. George IL. Pendleton, who
happened Ia be large ;! ock holder and
Director i'll one of the Cincinnati
National Banks, The Commercial Nat
onai Bank of Cincinnati; did he pay
he tax? No, he did not, until the bank
.as compelled to pay it. The hank OF
which Mr.. Pendieton was Director
WIS the first one TO propose to resist this
tax law. They sent a circular to every
.he OF the stockholders requiring them
not To pay the tax. They then went
aroun to the other banks and suggest
,i ,hat they unite in resisting this tax.
And they did for while, but were COM
.,eiled to pay it.
