The Man with Pail turnedj the corner
laughing silently. "Well," said he, winkine
at a lamp-post, "the Squire don't appear te
know that am in the banking business lit
tie myself"
When he got home no took his wife by the
shoulders, looked admiringly in her face
laughed again, and said, MARY, did you know
you were worth $50,000?"
"Now, John, what do you mean?"
"Fact, not cont less. Met man just now
who told me So"
"Told you what, you provoking creature?'
"Told me that nobody could go into the
banking business with less than $4,000; per-
feet impossibility, you know; proved it to me
and I knew all the time that your father left
YOU share in the Casco bauk and you've got
it now Dividends have been mighty handy
sometimes, too"
'Well, what of it?,
"Don't you see? Nobody can go into the
banking business with less than $4,000. You
belong to banking corporation and are in the
banking business, have vote for directors and
all that sort of thing. But you couldn't dc
it with less than $4,000. So, of course, you're
worth $4,000
"Whati you mean to tell me that the Squire
was talking nonsense. Come, now, that won't
do!''
The fact is, that Mary was the only child OF
an industrious carpenter, who in his lifetime
saved few hundred dollars, and prudently
bought three shares of Casco bank stock.
When he died, one of these shares went to
Mary who had found the small dividends very
convenient for sundry uses at home.
John, who learned his trade OF Mary's father.
had never meddled with his wife's little for
tune His own banking business had been
transacted at the savings bank.

The United States circuit court and its
officers who have been lately trying some
rather prominent gentlemen of South Caro-
lima for completely in election frauds do not
meet with many compliments from the

ton the prosecutions were undertaken, was
declared to be ''on the path of vengeance
and blood" and Sin his element only when

"Well, with these 877.5 millions on hand,
the remainder of the deposits, 171.3 millions
could be safely loaned for short time, couldn't
they?'
John thought it probable.
"But the customers of these banks in April
wanted 1927 millions of dollars, to carry on
the prosperous business of this great country.
Now let us figure up and see where they got 1t.
There was first the cash capital; then what was
left of the deposits; then money borrowed from
other sources, chiefly from savings banks; and
all this was not enough, and SO the banks had
to issue their notes for the balance. Here are
the items:
Borrowed money 1913
Circulating notes, 323.9
Loans, 1887
$50 that the banks loaned not only theircap-
ital but their credit in various forms, to the
amount of about nine-tenths of their capital"
"The Squire said they got interest on i've
times their capital"
"The IS quire was wrong. On the money
borrowed from savings banks, the national
banks paw interest, and on some of their depos-
its, though that is not considered good bank
ing. But this employment of the surplus cash
of the savings banks, helps us pay dividend
on your savings"
81 know But is it right for the banks to
earn money on more than their capital?"
SIS it right for anybody to do bushes on cred
it? If you say yes, that answers your ques-
tioD''
GLOW much do they earn in year anyhow
"That depends upon the condition OF trade.
They earn more in good times than in bad, like
everybody else. In 1878 and 1879 they earned
about per cent on their capital; in 1880, near
ly per cent; and in 1881, 8 per cent. 1t was
poor business that did not pay per cent last
year. So long as banking is free, they cannot
earn more than the average profits on all knds
of business, because people will leave other
kinds of business and go to banking until the
equilibrium is restored"
81 see,' said John, "and I'm much obliged,
and with that he went back to his work, much
msrvelling in his mind at the 'Squire's two no.
tions-that it is necessary to have 800, 0O0 IN
order to own bit of bank stock, and that bank
ers, unlike other traders, should be forbidden
to use their credit.
Presently he Remembered, too, that the build
er who employed him, got advances from the
banks to pay the hands, who would otherwise
have to wait, if they could, until the job was
done, and then he saw that the credit as we'll
as the capital of the banks is all needed to keep
in motion the industries of the country, and
that if they were not allowed to issue their
notes, more than fourth part of the business
now carried on by their aid must cease.
"By thunder" said the Man with Pail,
''the Squire don't know what he's talking
about"

The Treaty of Kilmainha1r

Mr.. Parnell's letter on the Irish situation
read by him to the Commons the other day
has not met the consideration it deserves.
The English Opposition see in it evidence OF
bargain made by government with Irish
malcontents, and the Fenian element see in
it evidence of bargain made by the Land
League with Mr. Gladstone. Both ridicule
it as ''the Treaty of Kilmainham," and thus
try to sneer it's force away.
The letter, candid men, Irish, English and
American, must acknowledge, is not only in
every way creditable to its writer but most
opposite to the situation. 1t is not sur
render of Irish claims nor a pronunciamento
against the British government. If it is the
indication of bargain, as some zealots as
sert, it is of bargain honorable 20 both
countries Most men wish trade of that
nature had been made years ago. Mr.. Par
nell merely says that if the arrears Of rents
were settled the Irishmen who sit in the
Commons would consider the land question
also substantially settled, and would then
be able to act with the Liberals in favor of
like justice for England. Mr.. Gladstone
took Mr.. Parnell at his word, introduced
the new bill relating to arrears of rent, and
released many of the suspects. The I'M
derstanding-there was no explicit arrange
ment-was highly honorable to all concern
ed, and had it not been for the Dublin TRACE
dy, would now be producing good results.

LOWELL COURIER: Of all the filings at
man in public life, those made by the Bos-
ton Herald at Secretary Chandler as man
fit to have the spending of money on our ma
Wy, are among the meanest. There is nota
line in Mr.. Chandler's public or private rec
ord which shows him untrustworthy or in
capable, and it is the unfairest possible use
of the power which widely circulated
newspaper possesses to endeavor to blacken
public mans character. We have the
highest respect for the ability and integrity
of every one of the three gentlemen who
own the Boston Herald. But we would
sooner trust William E. Chandler to spend
fifty million dollars of the public money for
public purpose than any one or all three OF
them. And this isn't discounting our re-
gard for them in the slightest.
