The Peoples Bank OF Germany.

In an article the other day on CO.
operative industry, says the New York
Evening Post, we alluded to the Pop
ular Credit Banks OF Germany. A
writer in the Boston Jo1rna! describes
more fully these institutions, OF which,
at the last advices, there were nearly a
thousand in existence:
"In q business city like ours who
can look upon the Catholic churches
now in process OF erection among us
without being struck by the financial
skill they imply' Those immense and
noble structures, calculated to last for
sges, are built in reality BY one OF the
least wealthy classes OF our community,
by servant girls and lsborers, who sup
ply their regular contributions, insig-
nificant separately and not felt BY their
eivers, but mighty in the aggregate, as
we see. Why cannot the laboring
children OF this generation be equally
wise iu matters OF temporal Welfare
that is to say, why can they not use
their enormous aggregate capital for
their own benefit, instead oil being de-
pendent upon the crumbs doled out.
often at exorbitaut rates OF interest, BY
wealthy capitalists, or going through
the world with the impression
that their only cspital is
their muscles, which may isil them at
any time, and upon which they can
never realize : 1t was, doubtless, pon
dering upon sone such questions ss
these that O German by the name Of
Schultz. Deliizch hit upon practical
idea. He ssv that the laborer, lik.
tabled rods, was financially weak as an
individual, but powerful enough for all
his purposes as the member OF q com.
munity. That ability to labor, which

case, is, when q tboussnd OF such men
are associated on q sound basis, 10 nee

&c, 8 perfectly good negotiable comm
dity.'
"Out OF this reasoning came The Pso-
pies Banks OF Germany. They are
formed by workibgnen alone. Eacn

regulations are made for withdrawal.
These contributions, OF course, do not
supply sll the capital required. The
society is for the purpose OF borrowing
money, which is raised on the joint
credit of the members, IN virtue OF the
unlimited liability OF all Of them. Eseb
member is personally liable TO the full
extent Of his property. This is the
foundation stone Of the system. The
profits TO the members accrue from the
simple fact that the bank buys money
., wholesale aud sells it at retail to its
customers. The difference Of price in
Germany is generally about four per
cent. The workiugmen OF Germany,
therefore, can hire money to g proper
extent as readily and cheaply ss his
impIoyer while as member Of one Of
these banking institutions he has
share OF the profits ACQUIRING from the
total losns-vhieh. it will be seen, 10
practically Q rebate on the rstss OF
interest he is himself paying. ls other
worde, these banks are cooperative
stores, dealing 10 money instead OF gro
ceries sud other like commodities.
They have bow stood the ordeal OF
trial, and must be pronounced mag
nifcsnt success. Even the Franco.
German war added to their number and
to their popularity, for they held their
own-owing to the prudent counsels Of
their originator-while other banks
were breaking on every side. In 1859
they numbered so, in 1869 there were
735. During this period their mem
bership rose from Is 100 to 304, 4,772;
and the borrowed capital from $780,
600 to $32,500,000 This alone shows
their credit and good standing They
are all parts OF one system, each asso-
citation forming 8 part OF o provincial
union and the union being leagued to-
gether. The reports OF each, showing
It's exact financial position, are sent to
. central bureau, aud are condensed 10
au annual publication.
These facts are sufficient to show
the principal Of the Peoples Bank OF
Germany. 1t will be seen that it con-
sists not only in consolidation and util.
izrng tie means of laborers, but in
making them lever for securing their
share OF the capital OF the country. 1t
makes the workingmen as independent,
according to the means OF their clsSs
mot themselves Individually, as any
other class Of their countrymen. Why
could not the plan be adopted with
equal, or even crater advantages, in
the United States ? D,fferent reguls
tions would undoubtedly be required,
and extreme vigilat ce in guarding
against abuses, particularly If the plan
became popular but tn. principal it.

A NEW SCHOOL HOUSE.

The proposed erection OF q ne"
school house for the Madison district
has excited a COED deal of interest
throughout the city and was the sub
ject OF much discussion by the Board OF
Education last night. There seems to
be very grave objections to the site on
the corner OF Eleventh and Chapline
streets, aud some Of the members OF the
board who at frat favored that location
are now convinced that q mistake has
been made. The cost of securing an
adequate foundation for the building
on the lot named would much
exceed the estimate and
the expense of the whole
building would probably be considera-
bly, more than it is prudent to incur at
the present time.
As an alternative, it is proposed to
consolidate the schools OF Madison and
Clay districts in one and erect new
building in some central locality for
the accommodation OF pupils in both
the Second and Third wards OF the city
The number Of school-going children
in these two wards is but little more
than that of those in the Eighth ward
or in the Fourth, aud site might be
selected that would be as
easily reached from the remote
portions OF the consolidated district
a, are the school houses in some OF the
other portions OF the city. The plan is,
to sell the present Third Ward school
property for say $4,000; sell the lots
belonging to the Board OF Education
on the corner OF 18th and Chapine
streets for say SIS, 900; cell the recent.
" purchased lots on the corner Of llth
and Chapline for what they cost, SlS,-
900. There will thus be realized the
sam Of 5000 to begin with. An offer
OF Mrs. HoGss property at the head OF
Hampden street was made to the Board
las. night for $1,000. The location
is in many respects a very desirable
one and it is nearly central to the
children OF the two districts. II this
should be purchased at the price named,
1900 will be left as building fund
Suppoee we add to this $4,000 to be
raised by texstiop, and the sum then In
hand will be sufficient TO complete
building that will afford ample accomo-
dation 10 the children OF Madison and
Clay districts for many years to come,
without the necessity OF raising by tsxs-
ton NOR. than one.ourth Of the amount
that would be necessary Tor the erection
ofthe Second ward school house accord
ing to the present plan.
Beside this, by the consclCation OF
the schools the salary OF one principal
will be annually saved and the tuition
OF the two schools will cost but little
more than is now paid for one.
The only tangible objection to the
plan Of uniting the two districts and
erecting new bouse for both, is that
on the score OF the convenience
of the patrons OF the
school. 1t may well be questioned,
however, whether the economy OF the
proposed plan is not Of sufficient weight
to overbalance the objections that some
of the children would have to walk
four or FIVE squares farther to school.
