State-Rank Circulation.

Our Washington correspondent in his
Thursdays letter called attention to the in
PRODUCTION of bill by MIR. HARRIS to relieve
the circulation OF State banks from the tax
OF ten per cent. We do not know the exact
relation Of Mr.. HARRIS to the measure.
We doubt whether he has done more than
comply with the wishes Of his constituents
BY bringing it 20 the attention Of Congress.
There being no State-bank circulation'
there is no tax collected on account or such
issue. Tie tax is nothing ii there Is no.
thing TO impose it upon. 1t like theiaw
/: Furnishing murder with hanging. II no.
body commits murder there is nobody TO
hang. Would that there could never be
necessity to hang anybody because no MUIR
der was committed! And as we consider
that the prohibition OF State-bank circuia-
tion ia one of the wisest measures OF the
Government, we trust that no tax will ever
he collected on State-bank circulation.
This tax is intended to prohibit the circuia-
tion of State banks. 1t does completely
what it is designed TO do, and we nope IL
will never be repealed. Il
God forbid that the people OF the United
States shall be ever again perplexed with
such a currency as we had when all the
States had banks and all the banks had cur
rency. Wealth was a very uncertain affair
in those days, and when man stuffed his
rockets with State bank notes it was very
uncertain matter as to how far he could
travel upon them.
The Federal Government did one Of the
wisest OF things when it provided for a really
national currency based upon the national
credit. Since that time we have experienced
the benetitand the comfort OF a currency that
was in perfect credit all over the Union, and
that could not become degraded to the. dc.
gree OF loss to the public. When was that
the case before the establishments OF the pres
emf currency? We cannot put faith IN the
fnaneia. wisdom of any man who wants 20
establish state banks with printing presses,
to deiuge the land with q 1nuleiform ana llle
degraded paper money that viii bripg PACK 'els
the financial troubles with which we were
once familiar, and which provoked more
iiscontent and more g cussing' than any
other cause whatever. (.

Go West, Young Man.

The Burlington Hawkeye is do
ing its best to encourage young
men to go West and grow up with
the country. This is the advice it
gives them: " Yes, son, yes, yes ;
go out West and buy a farm.
There is no life so independent as
that of the honest farmer. Do not
be discouraged if the work is a lit
tie hard at first. The grasshoppers
will eat up all your first planting,
but they will deyour it so early in
the season that you can plant
second time, They won't eat that
planting until just about three days
before harvest. Then you will
have nothing to do all fall and win
ter, and you can put in your full
time starving. The next years crop
will be destroyed by constant rains
and floods. The third year a drought
will burn up everything that has a
root or leaf within ten miles of
your farm. The fourth year, how
ever, will go well. You will raise
blooming crop, getit all in and safely
housed, and sit down happy and
contented, waiting for the market to
rise. Then a prairie fire, as big as
the butt-end of the universe, will
come along and burn up everything
you have in the world except the
clothes you have on. Buy a farm
A young man is neglectful of his
best interests and most solemn du-
ties who does not buy farm right
away"

About re matted and Drop Lertors

| About RE matted and Drop LetfoI =
! A great many persons, not being
versed, perhaps, in the postal regula-
| tons are in the habit of re-malling
letters, especially from some of the
hotels, after taking them from the
post Office and without II stamping
them = great many are thus re-
ulaiir,. at the car shti box, or on tue
postal cars. OF course, tEey never
reach their tiessina ion until they e"
through the dead le ter oflioe, ia ne
postal men have etriut rules On this
-ulj ct, and they must observe them.
Another mistake r. qaenlly oJcars by
persons dropping letters Into The box
a the car shei &ddres- ed 10 some one
in the city, with one cent stamp ON
them, thiHkiag they will reach tEeir
de7tinatiJn just the same as if they
were dropped intO the post office. This
other alternative than for the route
agents 10 obey instructions, and
forward them 10 tie dead letter flee.
For all these ''iTrrgu 'arities' thu
postal men receive rounds of abuse,
and frequently curses, for simply doing
their sworn duty. Slch occurrences
take place almost daily and if all per-
sons who carry on correspondence,
Or handle letters to be re-mailed, |
would take the pains 10 post Them
selves little there would be much |
less trouble about lost letters" "irreg-
Ilarities'' in the mails, etc We |
merely throw out these suggestions
for what they are "orth, hoping they
may meet some ones eye who will
pr fl by them.
