much greater. Then, following up this
idea that the legal tenders are in the way of
returning to specie payments, Mr.. Hooper
proposes to authorize the Secretary Of the
Treasury to provide coin by issuing new six
per cent bonds to be sold ct par for coin to the

authorize the Secretary to reissue these re-

creation Of new three sixty-fve per cent bonds
or certificates. These, however, should be
made convertible into currency and reconverti-

the money market o.,.n
Mr. Buckingham's bill appears to be more
to the point in this matter. 1t provides that
United States legal tender notes may be re-

legal tenders again and the interest
on the bonds up to the time O,

The bill is not explicit enough, but that is the
meaning, If We understand it right There
are certain other provisions in it for free
banking, prohibiting payment of interest on
deposits government deposits we suppose),
and allowing the national banks to count
United States bonds as . part Of their reserve
as well as legal tenders or coin. The banks
are to be permitted 10 redeem their notes In
