Again, i would provide an excess Of
revenue over current expenditures L
would do this BY rigid economy. and by
taxation where taxation can best be
borne. Increased revenue would work
a constant reduction of debt and inter-
est, and would provide coin to meet de-
mands on the Treasury for the redemp-
ton of its notes, thereby diminishing
the amount of bonds needed for that
purpose. All taxes after redemption
begins should be paid in coin or United
States notes. This would force re-
demption on the national banks. With
measures like these, or measures which
would work out such results, | see no
danger in authorizing free banking
without limit.
