SPEECH OF HON. FRANK
HEREFORD,
Delivered in the House of Repre-
sentatives, April 7th, 1874.

MR.. HEREFORD: Mr.. Speaker, sew
eral weeks have been occupied during thi
session in tho discussion Of the various 6
naucial theories; some favoriug expansion
and others contraction. Tho whole ofthil
discussion has arisen out Of The 6nanciA
panic Of last fall.
All that shall attempt on this occasion
will be to give some of the causes Of The
depressed condition Of the South, South
west, and West. And in doing this
hope | shall dalge in no spirit Of acri
mony, Nor is it my wish that anything
shall say shall in the least stir up any sect
iOual feeling, far be it from me. We have
had enough Of that, and my whole course in
life has been to allay any such feeling =
But lbc South, Southwest, and West are
beginning to be very rcstivo under OIL
present system Of legislation, and they
now appeal to you to stop before it is too
late; before the people become too much
aroused to allow their reason and better
judgment to control. | fear that this
session is to pass away without anything
being done for their relief
The sections that have alluded to dc.

ka. Is it surprising the South should
complain? Are you astOnished that the
grangers Of the West are aroused aud that
tho mighty tramp Of that great army Of
husbandmen is heard all over the rolling
prairicS? These figures are taken from the
Report of Comptroller of the Currency
for 1873, page7. {
AgaiD, in the same report, page II we
arc told that 10 the New EOglaud States
the circulation per head is $3l .6S. 10 The
Western States, including the great State
of Illinois, the circulation is only 81 %
per bead. Well may that great State join
in this procession. But the most startling
disclosure is jet to be made, 10 the South
ern States The circulation per bead is only
so 81; 10 Massachusetts $40 81 per head.
Is not all this uuwise, unequal, and unjust
legislation? Is it not sufficient to render
these people Of the Wcstaud South discOn,
tented? Isit not enough to irritate? Is
it any wonder these States demand Q
change?
difference il fyou Of The South and Wes'
had more banking capital; your condition
would not be bettered; tue capital would
fud its way to the East. We ask you tc
let US bc the judge Of that II increase oI
bank circulation does not benefit, why dc
you cling to it With such teDacity?
The people Of tue South, Southwest, and
West demand o fair, just and equal dis'Fi,
button Of this circulating medium, and
they will have it. Ifthc Forty.third Con-
gross will not give ito them, and also au
increase of egaI.tcudors, they will rise in
the might aud majesty Of their power, and
send mt. to the Forty. fourth Congress
that will give it to them, that will do equa
aud exact justice TO all, North, South, East
aud West. This is 10 part what these pcO
pie want. You may call it by whatever
name you please, whether it be contraction
expansion, or imitation. Let the New
England States give up part of their ex'
cess Of $40, ,OOO,O 600, and supply as far al
is needed tho deficiency of SOL 900, OO(
that exists in the South and Of S2l, ,OOO,'
900 that exists 10 the West.
But we arc told the bank circulation o
tho United States is larger now per capto
than before the war. Grant it as applied
to the whole country; it is not true when
applied to the oppressed and down trodder
South. BY this same report we arc showr
that in 1862 iu the Southern and South
western States the circulation was ST.

Mr.. Schultz closed the case of the complain
ants before the committee. Speaking of Mr..
Jayne he said tnat if they could rely on his
statements, he was an innocent youth from
Western New York, coming to the city with
hay seed on his head and grasshoppers ON his
clothes, the object of the visit being to reform
the morals of that community. Mr.. Jayne
had told them that of 62 customf officsrs he had
reported to the Secretary of the Treasury, 81
had been receiving brides, and yet he could not
get them displaced from Office.
Mr.. Jayne said that while thieves were per-
mitted to remain in Office he looked on the seiz-
ure of books and papers as little else than high
way robbery and therefore he had quit. Thus
it appears that Jayne, at least, retired in dis
gust and threw up the sponge.
Mr.. Schultz criticised the opinion of Colonel
Bliss that public officers are stimulated by re-
employed to do their duty without such stimu-
lus. This was no party question We want
revenue reform prospect We of party, and we
mean to get it, and we think you will grant it.
We thank you for giving us hearing. To
whatever conclusion you may come, we shall

ceive the mOieties.

We have had four lectures at the M. E.
church in this place during this season, by the
following gentlemen, viz: Hon. Israel WASH
burn, Jr,, and Rev. Messrs. Bicknell, Ptblado,
and Small, all of Portland. The last was on
Wednesday evening. Subject-"It might have
BEEN" The lecture was able, eloquent and
adapted to the times and eminently calculated
to do much good. We doubt if any city has
been favored during tina winter with lectures
more able, eloquent and instructive. The citi-
zens of this place are greatly indebted to these
gentlemen for the entertainment they have Civ
them. Surely Portland need not go abroad for
lecturers.
The smaller children of the Sunday School, a
few months since, formed circle to aid in
raising funds for religious purposes. Their eff
forts in this direction have been successful.
They have paid the pastor of the church sixty
dollars, besides presenting to him and his wife
fifteen dollars as gift. They are deserving of
much praise When the little children of our
village, of their own accord, with busy fingers,
can do so much, Portland need not fear annex

Gentlemen. you must have unspeakable sat-
lsfacton at this hour in your recent action on
the matter relative to the army register and
natonal battle flags. 1t was communicated to
Mr. summer while he was in the full possession
OF all his faculties and we may we'll believe
That he rejoiced in this indication by the con-
stltuents whom he had so long and so faith
fully served
Gen. Banks of Middlesex offered the follow
ing:
Ordered, That the message of the Governor,
communicating the melancholy intelligence Of
the sudden death of Hon. Charles Sumner,
senior Senator from Massachusetts,, in the
Congress OF the United States, be referred to a
special committee of five members of the SEN
ate with such members as may be appointed by
the House of Representatives with instruc-
lions to consider and report what measures it
may be expedient and proper to adopt as a
recognition of the important service of the dis
tinguished Senator and as a public acknowl-
edgement of the grateful esteem in which his
memory and character are held by the people
of the Commonwealth.
The order was adopted without debate and
Messrs. Banks, Norcross, Washburn, Halves
and Lathrop Were appointed GU the committee
on the part of the Senate.
In the Honse before the gavel fell, Mr.. j: B.
Smith of Cambridge, the intimate friend of
Mr.. Sumner, placed large boquet of callas,
immortelles and smiax upon the Speakers
desk. A tenderly appropriate prayer was Of
fered by the chaplain. After the transaction
of some routine business the message of the
Governor was received from the Senate and the
order was adopted in concurrence. The gen.
tlenen appointed on the committee to join the
committee of the Senate were Messrs. Phil
lips of Salem, Smith of Cambridge, Goldman of
Boston, Kimball of Boston, Adams of Quincy,
Dickinson of Amherst, Noble of Westfeld,
Phillips of Springfield, Buffum of Lynn,
Blunt of Haverhill, .Sade of Somerset, Cum
mings of Woburn and Easterbrook of WOr-
arrangement u being made for a public
meeting of citizens in iFaneuil Hall at noon
Saturday.
The charge of the funeral, should it devolve
upon the city, will be in the hands Of a COM
mittee from the City Council.
The speeches at the meeting Saturday will
be brief and it is probable the State Legisla-
ture will take early steps to have public
Grafton delivered at no distant day.
All our citizens without distinction of party
are cooperating to have all proper respect paid
to the deceased Senator.
The Board of Trade and numerous other So
cieIies have taken action in relation to the sad
event.
