Mr.. Lawrence desired to make a re-
joindsr, but Mr.. Wilson, who had the
fiSor, declined to yield to him.
Mr. Wilson, of Indiana, continued his
argument He said that men might differ
as TO the proper salary without being
either robbers or thieves The people,
however, had right to demand that the
act of the last Congress should be repeal
ed. The people had made that demand
and Congress was bound 10 accede to it.
Whatever Congress would do would be
criticised, but perhaps the best way of
disposing of the matter was to place the
law as it was before, and he trusted the
House would put the bill on that basis.
Mr.. Townsend advocated an amend
ment proposed by himself, fixing the sala-
ries of members at Sc, 600. rJ
Mr.. Lynch argued that whatever
change was to be made, whether Of in
crease or decrease, should not take effect
during the present Congress.
Mr.. Lamison asserted that the popular
clamor against the increased salary bill
was gotten up mainly by demagogues and
interested politicians; that he had met his
constituents and argued the question to
their entire satisfaction, and that he hac
no fear of his ability to convince them

Mr.. Hale, of Maine. gave notice that
he would try to get vote on the bill to-

SENATOR FERRY, of Michigan, on the
4th called up his resolution offered on the
1st, instructing the Finance Committee to
report bill providing remedy for the
existing monetary arrangement He
said free banking, open to all, would re-
GeVe the banking system of special privi-
leges, and accord more with the spirit of
the day. He proposed that the currency
be issued directly by the Government, and
make legal tender, as the greenbacks, in
stead of one-haf az now, through the
agency of banks, with the denial of the
function of lawful money. This was a
national discredit to 90 much of the cur
rency, He proposed that the substitution
of legal tenders for tbs national currency
be effected without lessening the volume
of circulation, and thrsagh the purchase
Of bonds held by the banks, or of out
standing bonds This would work the
payment of $3.50, 100000, of the public
debt, and save an annual outlay of over
twenty million of coin interest, nearly
enough to pay the one per cent. required
by law to be pad annually on the public
debt. Bankers may at first thought de-
muir to this as inilnieal to public policy.
He could understand how this.might con-
fict with public convictions, having some
stock himself in one of the banks. Pri-
vate interest should give way TO public
welfare Freedom from Federal tax and
other irksome provisions will compensate,
and the further reflection viii lead ban
kers to choose it with its freedom from
redemption and other exactions He
argued in favor of
THE MAXIMUM CIRCULATION
to be $s00,000,000, being $50,0000O0
more than that now of $400, 100000 of
greenbacks and $350000,000 OF national
currency, and all made lawful money. We
owe 1t to the honor of q great nation to
fully accredit its issue and stamp its mon
etary unit, the currency dollar. with soR-
ereign value, attested by the aggregate
value Of the whole country. Ability to
pay, not haste to pay, Is the measure Of
value. He proposed that the currency be
convertible into 8 65l00 per cent. cur
rency bonds, and they be recoverable
into currency at the will Of the holder,
thus securing locaization and elasticity Of
the currency. S7nae advocate the prohibl-
ton of interest being paid by the banks.
Prohibitory legislation is either eYaded or
not executed. Far better counterpoise it
by employing the stimulus of the evil to
work its cure. The interest on these
bonds will arrest the flow of currency to
the seaboard centres, and hold it for emer-
gencies everywhere. For immediate re-
lief he thought the $44, 100000 reserve
should be used in the purchase of bonds,
and enough moro issued to make up the
maximum. This would pay for bonds
enough to save $25, ,000, GOO of coin inter
est annually; more than enough to pay
the one per cent yearly of the public debt.
