The objections TO the present policy
Of President Cleveland and his Secretary
of the Treasury Of depositing Govern
ment funds in Wall street banks, which
loan them out TO spectators and stock
gamblers, were tersely stated fifty-one
years ago in a message sent TO Congress
by man who was at that time nj least
a Democrat in good standing, President
Martin Van Buren,. "The discontinue
ance OF the use OF banks for FISCAL pur-
poses ought not 20 be regarded MS n
measure OF hostility TO those institu-
tons They have no right to insist on
the use OF the public money for their
own benefit The object of the measure
under consideration the Sub-Treasury
PLAN is to avoid for the future "a COM
pulsory connection OF this kind. IL pro-
poses TO place the General Government
in situation which shall relieve it
from all dependence on the will OF in

law; 10 abstain from improper interior
ence with the industry OF the people,
and withhold inducements 20 improve

20 preserve the measures Of the Govern
ment from the unavoidable reproachcs
that flow from such connection, and
the banks themselves from the injurious
effect OF supposed participation in the
political conflicts OF the day, from which
they will otherwise find il difficult TO

How VIII The Proposed Reduction
Aaect Wages Aud The Cost or
Living.

In previous article the actual reduc-
tons proposed by the Mills Bill have
been fully and correctly stated, and the
extent Of tho reductions may be taken as
the measure in the decline in wages
which would follow the adoption OF that
hill.
Perhaps il will be said that CORES
ponding decline in the cost OF living
would take place, aud therefore no harm
would be done. This is delusive sug-
gesiion, and many are deceived by IL.
In the first place, the effect OF such a
bin would be chiefly noted in increased
imports which would supplant American
goods, and throw many workmen out Of
work Their wages would not simply be
reduced: they would have none at all
until they had another job. and perhaps
underbid some other workman and
forced him out OF work and so on.
The next effort would be a general re-
puction OF wages. Too many workmen
would be competing for jobs, instead of
Jobs competing for men. All this, COM
bined with cheaper imported goods
would reduce the prices Of corresponding
American goods. Certain things would
he cheaper. but not all, and in fact only
"A small part OF them. For instance, the
now in this country than in Europe, and
would not be affected by reduction OF
duties Now, IL has been shown by
competent persons that subsistence
forms about liya-eights OF the cost Of
living, and as TO this there would be no
reduction. The other three-eights con-
sist Of clothing. rent, fuel and sundrics
These items would probably DO reduced
and IL they were reduced in the same
ratio as the wages, the net result would
be- cut down twice as much as the ex-
penses. For example,:
A mans wagesamount yearly TO $3.50 90
If cut down one quarter 1877 90
lie would have remaing 1852 so
His expenses were say, yearly 700 90
lie can save on three-eights of
this, % per cent, the same
ratio az his wages are reduced.
- per cent Of threo-eights OF
$76O is 05 &c
And his living would now cost $685. 80
II is easy to see that he could not con-
tinue 90 live on the same scale Is before,
and that with reduced wages, he would
also be forced 60 submit 10 the European
ways Of living.
There is therefore little comfort TO be
found i'm the suggestion that cores
ponding decline in the cost of living
would follow q decline in wages. II is
not true. -IdrtG League Bulletin.

Tor this unusual movement Of the union are
as follows:
Last spring, when the fight against the
Spectator was being most vigorously pushed

ORGANIZING FOR WORK.
The Democratic County Commit.
tee Preparing for the Conflict.

The Democratic county committee
met yesterday morning and organized
by electing officers as follows: P. B.
Winston, chairman; William McArdle,
vice chairman; Charles Nee. Reeve.
secretary; Thomas j. Buxton, treas
urer. An executive committee consist
ing of P. B. Winston, T. j. Buxton,
William McArdle, James Wiley, j. X.
Corrigan, II. Jaquinette and Lewis
! FrederickSon was chosen for the cam
paign, and specially charged with the
financial affairs of the committee. Ar
thur V. Jordan resigned, and A. g.
Bailey was elected in his stead.
On motion of Ed A. Stevens 1t was
voted that the members Of the general
committee from the several wards have
charge of affairs therein, under general
direction of the executive committee,
and that they appoint precinct commit
tees of three members each for the new
precincts, and that the country mem
bers act in like manner in the appoint
ment of town committees, the members
of such precinct and town committees
to serve during the pleasure of said
ward committeeman, and none to be al
lowed to serve who were not in harmony
with the full ticket.
G. l.. Locke, one of the candidates for
legislative honors in the Thirtieth dis
trict, rendered his declinatiOn, which
was promptly accepted, and the matter
of filling the vacancy referred to the
members of the committee residing IN
that district.
After the transaction of sundry minor
business and general discussion on
plan of the campaign, the executive
committee was instructed to procure
headquarters and furnish the same, and
an adjournment taken for one week.
The executive committee thereupon
met, and after electing the same Off
GERS as the general committee and
authorizing the employment of an as
sistant secretary, adjourned until Fri
day next.
1t is understood that nothing SAVIOR
ing of faction was developed at either
meetings but that on all questions the
meeting was practically unit.
