expensive, the more it is spread out, and the
United States is immensely larger than
Great Britain, but on the other hand, the
British government is the SUN total Of gov

We believe in banks, aud We believe that

of the representatives of those sections that
the establishment Of new banks is retarded

Gradually withdraw the entire greenback
currency or the most of it, and u legitimate
field is created for new bank notes. We
would provide for the constant redemption
Of bank notes through central clearing
house, more than one, if one is not sufficient
to prevent the expansion beyond the ability
to redeem in specie. Then We would re-
move all limitations upon the number and
circulation of banks, aud upon the amount
and management of their reserves instead
Of the present taxes, We would make them
surrender the United States bond on which
they now draw q per cent. interest, and ac-
cept 10 its place or per cent bond,
The bonds thus owned by the banks and on

$500, 100000, of which $3.50, 100000 are
