Some Radical Puns to Drown his

Tnferest-Tax on National Banks.

I .5
According to the report Of the Controller
of the Curreney tho national banks pay State
and national taxes aggregating an unreasona.
bly large amount Yet this tex Is very I'm.
equal. In New York In 1874 It reached the
amount OF rs, In Nebraska 5.S per cent.
upon capital stock, while 10 Kentucky II was
only a.8. Tho tax varies, these cases show
Ing the extremes. The banks cannot be ex'
pected to charge low rates OF interest
while they are subjected to such taxes.
Neither the General Government nor
the States Gun reasonably impose any
limited rate Of interest for those institu,,
lions as long as they are subjected
to such heavy and such unequal burshens.
) The Congress owes 1t to the Union to look
particularly into this matter. Neither com.
amcrce nor any kind OF occupation csn pros
per while interest Is uereasonably high; and
while there are such burthens and such i'm.
eaualisies there car be no rates Of interest
favorable to commerce and business, and no
regularity Of rates Of interest in the United
States, Ia which thu interstate commerce Is
50 intimate that 1t becomes a matter OF great
importance that the charges for the use OF
m ,ney should be equalan over the country.
II 10 Impossible that interest for the loan
Of money should be equal in the States
when the taxes vary so widely. We have
long favored the idea that the Federal Gov
crpment should regulate the rate of interest
to be charged by the national banks. In
that way the rate would become the same
everywhere, for the States could not enact
laws in,erruptipg the rate allowed by the
Federal Government.
But the Federal Government in establish
ing general rate would find it necessary to
establish a uniformity Of taxation Of the ma
tionsl banks. An institution taxed 90 per
cent. on its capital could not be fairly re-
ouircd to charge no more for money than
one which was taxed only 1.6
At the same time we adhere consistently
e. our principle that money is a property
taat is as much entitled to its true value IN
the market as any other kind Of property.
There should be no law prohibiting lender
and borrower from making a contract as to
the amount Of interest to be paid for money.
A law regulating interest should only be ap-
plicable in the absence of such contract ana
for the settlement OF fduciary accounts and
tbe estates of deceased persons, and for all
accounts where there are no contracts p,ovid.
ing otherwise.
If Congress will look into this important
matter, and take steps to equalize taxes and
interest to be paid and charged by banking
institutions, it will facilitate commerce and
very much promote the sympathy and the
equality Of burthens and benefits amongst
the States. The States have differing poll.
cics with regard to currency, which Is thing
that especially requires stability and uni
fornity. The Federal Government will
never fully discharge its duty to the nation
until this equality Of facility and this uni.
formi!y are complete. -e

Ano,ner Reason .ss. why Kerr " was as Chosen.


I have said that Kerr was chosen on the
ground Of political necessity. The necessity
which existed was the selection Of the most
invulnerable candidate to attack. From
this standpoint Kerr outrivalled Randall.
Kerr voted against the back-pay bill, but
drew 1t and covered 1t into the Treasury.
Randall not only accepted it, but defended
his course In taking II. Kerr stood squarely
in sympathy with the cardinal principles Of
Democracy the platform of free trade,
home rule, and hard money. Randall was
allied to constituency which forced him. to-
protect It on all issues affecting our system
OF tariff. Whether or not he stood firm on
the question of bard money no one knew. d
The odds, however, were against him.
Randall in the Speakers chair could have
been tainted by the opposition on bis re-
cord. ills bard to see how Kerr can. Randall
was preferable TO Kerr as apresiding officer
In that he was skilled pariiannenturan.
Kerr has great deaitto learn Of the intrica-
Giles which surroundis. His not altogether
good nature will not beimproved when he
clashes with master minds like Blaine, Gar
6eld. and other leaders on the Republican
side, whoare quick ID perceive and ltake5any
advantage which the rules OF the House &C.
cord minority. 1t was gust this forte which
brought RendaH to- the front 10 the exciting
scenes of the last Congress.
Among The Democratic politicians some
assert that Randsa fss election would have
been the death.knellsOf their party in 1876.
Thistle base upon the fact that he received
the support ef Republican,. This created
first suspicion; then, as the canvass pro-
tracted. distrnst, II eventually crystalljzeds
into both, and many who at FIRST had decided
10 vote forshim changed their minds because
they were afraiasto venture upon him. Mr..
Randall Was killed because the party were
afraid of hims-- Washington special In Balti.
