THE evil most sure to result from the re,
demption clause of the currency bill which
has just passed is of much greater magni-
tude than would naturally be supposed at
first view. Itprovides that the Treasury
may redeem and destroy certain currency
without submitting it to the bank issuing II
for count scrutiny and cancellation. What
q godsend would this be to counterfeiters
What stacks of mutilated, defaced and
worn notes, purporting to be issued by
every national bank in the country, would
be prepared by the counterfeiters and for
warded for redemption and exchange
They manage to prepare them and subject
them to such treatment as to give them at
once an aged appearance. which defes de-
lection excep by the most Gklllful experts.
Suppose that the average Of mutilated and
defaced currency received for exchange
is now about $500, 900 per day. If we
could doubR the national bank notes and
retire one-fourth of the legal tenders under
this bill, tho amount would naturally in
crease gradually to $500, 900 or $500, 900.
OF this latter sum the counterfeiters would
probably furnish one fourth to one half. 1t
is easy to see how soon they could in this
manner cripple the banks. If they manage
to sandwich into the defaced packages
800, 900 PEI day it will aggregate $50, 900, =
900 per annum; if $500. 900. it will be
$50, OOO, 900, and so on, soon eating up all
the profits Of the bank. We hazard
little in the prediction that most national
banks now in existence would go into
liquidation very shortly or surrender their
circulation rather than continue free bank
ing under the provisions of this bill. The
risk is too great on the part of the banks.

TIE N0RKON DELEGATE.

George Q. Cannon, the Mormon Dele
gate. appeared before the Committee OF
Elections yesterday in obedience to sum
mons issued at the request Of General
George R. Maxwell, the late contestant for
his seat to answer to the charges against
him that he was q polygamist, living IN
open violation of the laws of Congress, and
that he had taken an oath Of enmity to the
United States
Cannon declined to answer to the charges,
electing to rest upon the testimony already
in the hands of the committee.
As this evidence is full and conclusive as
to the polygamic practices Of the Mormon
Delegate and also as to his disloyalty, it but
remains for the committee to report the
facts to the House for Its action thereon.
The avowed purpose Of Brigham Young
in sending the present Delegate to Congress
was 10 force that body to indorse polygamy
by admitting a polygamist as member.
1t was piece of arrogant defiance on the
part of the Mormon leader of the Christian
and moral sentiment of the country, which
can only be properly rebuked by the igno-
minious expulsion of the criminal, who,
instead of being on the floor of Congress,
ought to be serving out term in the peni-
tentiary.
The committee meet this morning to take
the matter under consideration. Judging
from the vote on Mr.. Hazleton's resolution,
who has thus brought the matter squarely
before the House, there can be but little
doubt as to the result. To permit the Nor
mon Delegate to retain his seat would be
virtually repeating the act making polygamY
a crime and elevate bigamy, or "Brigamy, "
as it might more properly be termed, into a
pardonable misdemeanor.
There is no dodging the issue the Nor
mon leader has thus made. His Delegate
is an open and avowed polygamist. As it
was boastingly said in Salt Lake City, he
came here with his colors as such nailed to
the mast and defying Congress not to recog-
nize him. All through Utah, if he should
be allowed to remain, it will be heralded as
a victory by Brigham Young and his satel-
lites in favor of their peculiar doctrines
that which degrades women to the condl-
ton of cattle and attempts to palliate mans
lust by the false pretense of q religion.
