. wise savings bill, enabling the
Treasury to deal direct with the PEG.
pie, would largely repair this. On
the second point the National banks
can't throw upon the Government the
burden of redeeming their notes.
The attempt would be suicide. They
are bound to redeem their notes at
the Treasury and maintain in the
vaults very large reserves Of United
States notes. If they attempted to
force redemption the government
would withdraw oil deposits from
them, and they would lose their pow
er to issue circulating notes. The
government now holds a larger pro-
portionate reserve to meet the
liabilities than any bank of these gen.
tlemen, and it has the power to in
crease 1t. The certificates of deposit
are secured amply by coin or notes,
while the banks owe over 5000, O00, 600
to depositors, which is chiefly repre-
sented by notes and bills discounted
only on demand. The liabilities not
provided for are United States notes,
of which $4,000, 900 are in the vaults
and banks. We must maintain q re-
serve of $70,OOO.O0O more. with a coin
reserve of $150OOO,OOO. The redemp-
ton of $500, 100000 of United States
notes would be easy and that reserve
could not be diminished to any con-
siderable extent by banks or any
combination of bankers without con-
tinuous drafts on banks to make it
good.

head and heart prompts it to speak,
in regard to principles and if in q
clear enunciation of its principles 8,
they antagonize with the principles
of the administration, this cannot be
helped. 1t is not necessary to arraign
the administration and condemn it in
words, and we would not 90 advise,
but it is necessary for the republican
party of Iowa to clearly and fearless
ly cnunciate its principles. We take
it that republicans ofIows will abide
by the clear, fair and candid enuncia-
ton Of Iowa republicanism 40 the
majority in convention shall declare
it. In no other way than by bold
declaration of its sentiments will the
republican party avoid dry rot and
death. We can never win by . sys-
tematic national overthrow Of right,
ofjustice, upon the demand of wicked
men, in order that we may try
whether or no such trucking
will not make the wicked good. The
South ruled this nation fifty years,
and until the leading feature cf
its civilization led it into rebellion.
As matters are now going on we are
upon the verge Of q return to that
domination, which would be only
bringing about the conditions for an
other revolution. We spprehend
that portion Of tho present admin
istrstion not only don't care . fig
whether the Republican party lives
or dies, but on the other hand would
rather like to see it crumble, because
it has not always been teachabIe by
that portion Of the administration.
We trust that there are NO Republic
ans in Iowa who feel that way, at]
least NO such persons would be cred
tied as Republicans in Iowa.
