A regular reaper of Truth would not
have asked the questions contained in
the following letter:
Truth: Will You please give Me lit OF
information. What do the national banks
cost the country annually. Have any esti-
mates been made of the hounies paid to
railroad kings and corporations. Please
give me the facts, figures and authority.
Most respectfully. A. {. HARNESS.
MoogEr1EID, Hardy Co. ". Va. Aug 50, 1852.
But, as the writer lives away down in
West Virginia, we shall, for his benefit.
briefly reply:
l. What do the national banks cost
the country? They cost it great deal
more than can be estimated The rate
of discount varies with time and place.
SO that il is impossible to say how much
borrowers pay banks for their loans in
the course Of a year. 1t is enough to
know on this point, however. that ii
credits were abolished and d sufficient
quantity of exchanging medium was
supplied by the Government with which
to do the business Of the country. there
would he no necessity for discounts.
and, consequently. no discounts.
But one item Of cost to the country
imposed by national banks can be esti-
mated We shall not attempt an accn
rate estimate here but will give amounts
in round numbers which will answer
our correspondents purpose Under
the National Bank Extension law.
PASSED ut the last session Of Congress, Il
national bank may receive from the
Government in guaranteed notes 80 per
cent. Of the par value Of Government
bonds deposited. by ii in the treasury.
There are i'll circulation Of such notes
now S:35O,O0O.OO0. In fact. there are
some millions more. but We adopt this
minimum amount, to he within bounds.
To secure these notes the banks have
deposited at least S4Oo,OOOOOD in bonds.
The bonds draw interest nj from 3 per
cent. upward, all of which goes 10 the
banks Just as ii the bond, We're i'm their
own safes. We shall base our estimate
on per cent, Ia he again within
bounds. That makes the yearly inter
est paid by the Government t. the
banks $ll.7OO,0O0. - W. have used

that this tax ought not to BE- deducted
because it is imposed to raise a fund
which is wholly devoted tosuch a super.
vision Of the banks as to prevent then
swindling their customers and stock
holders by false entries, embezzlement,
and so forth. II this view is adoptcI
by our correspondent he will obsere,
that the banks draw from the publ,

And for what? For the privilege al

banks (.ct Rich by Lending Their Debts.

Every bank note ever issued was the
evidence Of the indebtedness Of the
hank to the holder. The difference be-
tween the banker and any other citizen
is that the banker get, the law made to
permit him to draw interest on what he
owes this bank notes.. and other G H.
zens don't trouble themselves about the
laws. and are thus forced to pay the in
terest on his 1.-THE hanker'sl debts. The
more the banker owes in this way the
more interest he draws. and the richer
he gets. The more people who don't
,tndv finance owe the poorer they
grow.
