More Money.

One Of the chief needs Of the
country, and one which depresses
and demoralizes business and trade
as much as anything else, is an in
crease Of our banking capital. We
want more money and we might add,
available money, that business enter
prise can lay its hands on and util-
ize without the dead weight and in
cubus Of interest at ruinous rates.
No business can succeed for any
length Ct time without money 10 back
it. Money begets confidence, and
confidence stimulates trade, and that
is just what we want to bring about
q commercial reaction and cure the
dull times that we are all complain
ING Of. The leading interests of the
country are bound up in the solution
Of the labor question, and it takes
capital to command either skilled or
unsHil!ed labor. There can be but
little hope Of Z revolution, which in
wolves aHyt;ing like hopeful and
cheering movement. as long as the
banks Charge twelve per cent.
to the merchant and the merchant
charges twelve per cent. to the
planter. The life and resources of
the South, since the war, have been
absorbed and consumed in this way,
and the mad attempt TO pay interest
at such ruinous rates, il kept up, will
keep The country where it is, il it
don't make matters worse, for the
next decade.-John$t9o Monuor.

SEEKING American Boats.

WAsHISsToS, June 2.-Representatiye
Boutelle received a telegram to-day
from Eastport 10 the effect that the
Dominion Collectors of Customs
threaten to seize American boats If they
buy herring from fish weirs on pro
vincial shores TO be used for canning in
the United States. a large business of
this kind had been carried on at PASSPORT
and vicinity, nearly all the fish being
brought from Provincial weirs. The
American boatmen are afraid to con-
/ tinue traffic and large numbers of peo-
pie on both sides of the line are affected.
Mr.. Boutelle and Senator Hale. this
afternoon, called ] Secretary Bayard,
Who promised TO take immediate steps
to ascertain the facts of this reported
denial OF the ordinary privileges OF the
commers, but he remarked, rs diplo-
matte relations on tlis subject must be
conducted through the British home
government, they are necessarily slow.
