from the superior confidence of the public
in national banks. 1t requires at present
prices SLY, 600 to purchase 800, 900 of gov
ernment bonds. On this basis the banker
may issue S9O,o COO in currency. This he has
to loan, and in addition thereto gets per
cent. on his bonds. But he loses the use of
$37, 900. The difference between the cost of
the bonds and the amount of his currency.
When his bonds mature the premium, of
course, is gone, and the banker must return
to the government his $50, of currency
or legal tender money in lieu thereof before
originally pledged for this issue, otherwise
they are cancelled and the government un-
dertakes to redeem his currency.
The common objection that government
bonds are not taxed, has no more force
when they are in the hands of national
bank, than If they were held by a private
individual. Two insuperable objections
bonds. First, if il had been in the power of
the states. to tax these sc curities at liberty,
NO one who was able to make loan to the
government would have felt safe in making
it at the rates of interest allowed ON these
securities. Second, the people Of The United
States, mean the majority of the people,
have not yet been able to reconcile the idea
of taxing their own securities with their ex-
alted notion of financial honesty and de-
oency.
And this doctrine that United Etakes A.

course to every imaginable preteXt for obtain

so insincere and cynical in its contempt Tor the

grabbing scheme has been based upon ques-
zion of etiquette in the reception of the ltallan
Consul by the Sultan. Some slight formahty

construed as an indignity to the ltalian UoV-
ernmcnt too serious to be redressed by an
official apology. big slice of territory mas
been demanded as the only adequate form OF
reparation for the Sultan's discourtesy. Nc
gotiations are still pending respecting this
trivial incident. and the Italian Government
is apparently resolute in its determination to
found colony on the Zanzibar Coast, its
various enterprises on the Red Sea having
proved barren and costly. With England
Germany and Italy competing at close quarters
for the control Of the native races OF this broad
and populous district, international discussions
will inevitably arise.
Germany is conducting its colonial enter
prjses in the same rough and arbitrary spirit
Of militarism that is displayed at Berlin in deal
ing with questions Of domestic politics. No
attempt is made to conciliate native feeling OF
to accommodate the policy of the protected
State to the preiudices Of the Arab. The up
rising of the natives is attributed to dislike OF
the arbitrary measures and overbeaiing con
duct Of the German officials The four frigates

undoubtedly suffice to restore peace and to pro-
tect European residents along the seaboard:
but it is probable that this first revolt fore
casts similar uprisings in the districts which
Germany seems destined to control in the neal
future. The naval operations viii have the
useful effect of directing public attention in
the Fatherland to the reclamation OF Africa
from barbarism. and especially to the necessity
for sending a strong expedition to the relief

THE SCRAMBLE IN AFRICA.

Zanzibar promises to become centre OF
European intrigue. England and Germany by
a recent treaty have cndeayored TO define and
limit their territorial possessions on the east
coast Of Africa. The British East Africa Com
pany has acquired broad stretch of country
extending from the coast across the Equator
to Victoria Nyanza. An area Of about 10000
square miles is included in the sphere OF action
Of this important colonial enterprise. In the
highlands of Masaand and along the coast
there are fine districts for agriculture and
cattle-raisng, and access is given in the in.
ieiior to the Equatorial Provinces still nom
inally under the control Of Egypt, where Emin
has been surrounded by foes since Gordon's
death. Germany has also acquired an ada
cent area of nearly 1875, 900 square miles be-
tween the British line and the river Rovuma.
This is the district where the natives are now
in revolt. The same Power reserves the right
Of adding 27 5000 square miles to its domain
by striking westward to Tanganyika and the
eastern boundary Of the Congo State, and
southwark tc Lake Nyassa. This privilege,
unless surrendered, will deprive England Of

The registration in New-YoIk and Brooklyn
Yesterday was far larger than ever before. The
increase cannot be accounted for by the growth
of the voting population; it indicates extraor-
binary interest in the political campaign in
which there is so much at stake. The number
registered in this city was 96,047, an increase
of 2l.269 as compared with the first day of
registration in 1884. In Brooklyn the in
crease for two days over the first two days
four years ago was almost the same, being
20.l96. Thus far 1928 voters have been
registered in that city.

One of the weaknesses of the present Excise
law is that the penalty for violating it, usually
only fine, can be easily paid. The Revision
Commission propose that the penalty for selling
liquor without a license shall be both fine and
Imprisonment, and that a second offence against
the Excise law shall subject the offender to a
punishment twice as severe as was inflicted
under the first conviction. This is a step in
the right direction.
