From his speech at Pittsburgh Monday night
The question has been asked, "If more
greenbacks are issued, how are We going
to put them into circulationP That is
an easy matter. Elect me Secretary OF
the Treasury and will call in all the
National bank issue, which is costing the
people about II per cent. In the place
ofthis will make these banking institu.

certain time they will be paid-the inter-
est to cease at the expiration otthe time
specified. Just as soon Us the bOndhold-
er finds that his interest has ceased, you
will see the bonds flowing in for redemp-
tiOn in large quantities. Now, in order
to keep the faith Of the government good,
II gold Is worth 81 10 | will pay $ll0 in

er does not want legal tenders, let the
country provide a 3.65 convertible bond,
which can be be converted into green
backs on presentation, and in this way
we can have an elastic currency, the vol
ume Of which would be governed by tho
demands Of trade. The rate Of interest
should be low enough to enable labor to
pay what Is demanded for loan, by
adopting the plan already named, foreign
bondhOlders would send in what they
hold, for redemption, and thus the inter.
est which we are yearly sending abroad
would be kept at home to enrich our own
people. We had better pay at the rate OF
seven per cent. at home for our accom-
modatlons than four per cent, across the
waters.

but nevertheless, we are OF the opinion
that 1t would be we'll to believe less in the
degree OF heat attained by the birthstone,

Scriptures. Instead, however, We are
not only losing sight Of the former but
