that the system commends itself to the

that the system commends itself to the
business interests of the country.
The system rests upon the bonds Of
the United States. This is true not only
of the circulation of the banks but Of
their very existence. Consequently,
some measure must be devised to pre-
serve the system or it will die when all
the government bonds are called in. AT
the present time, however, the pressing
question is to prevent a further decrease
of the circulation. The Comptroller
makes two suggestions which, while
they are not new, can be easily given
the force of law by Congress. One of
these is to authorize the issue of circula-
tion to the par value of the bonds, and
the other is to remit the tax on circula-
ton. Under existing conditions the cir
culatiOn is no object to a bank, but it
might be if the two restrictions referred
to were abrogated. Congress should en-
act such a measure at an early day.

A SEASONABLE SUGGESTION.

Tomorrow will be Thanksgiving.
While there is every reason to believe
that the readers of the Journal enjoy a
large number of days in the course of
the year, for which they have abundant
reasOn to be thankful, tomorrow is the
only n set apart by national and State
authorities for general thanksgiving.
To make it general, those who are able
should have it in their hearts to render
assistance to others less fortunate.
There are in every community and in
most neighborhoods worthy families
that will not be able to sit down to a
table loaded with the bounties of the
season unless some thoughtful friend
sends the turkey or the chickens and all
the ct ceterds. To most of those who
may read this the Thanksgiving feast is
of little account, because their lives are
crowned with an abundance of the good
things of life; but there are
those in their midst who are
not so fortunate, to whom a din
ner of turkey or chicken with
vegetables, fruit and a dessert is a rare
occurrence, and consequently a thou
sand times more appreciated. They
will not have them tomorrow, unless
some thoughtful and warm-hearted
neighbor sends them the "fixings.n Feel
ing in. their poverty that others enjoy
what they cannot, the Presidents and
Governors appointed Thanksgiving day
will be to them rather a day of gloomy
reflection without a bit of that warmth
and jOyOusness which human sympathy
affords.
Does the reader desire to create hap
piness in the home of one less fOrtunate2
He or she can be sure that it will be
done when they send to a less prosper
Gus neighbor or family the materials for
a good dinner. Will it pay? Yes, bet
ter than any investment you have made
for the year. Your own turkey will be
more delicious, the cranberry sauce will
be more appetizing, the celery will be
crisper, the pudding, and eve the pie,
with all its possibilities for dyspepsia,
and the fruit, will have a more delicate
flavor when you think that you have
been the good Samaritan who has poured
the oil of sympathy and the wine of
gladness into hearts which would other
wise be filed with the sadness and the
soreness of neglect. You will feel that you
have done something which will make a
household feel that, with you. they are
the children of a common Father. You
will help to destroy the baneful spirit OF
envy which the less prosperous are
liable to entertain toward the more
fortunate because of neglect, and you
will help to bind community together in
a bond of common sympathy and re-
spect.

Mr.. PowDERLY's political scheme of
uniting the Knights of Labor order and
the Farmers Alliance, and forming such
n political power that it will control the
presidential chair, appears very formid-
able on paper; but if Mr.. Powderly will
read the history of the Changers, the
Greenbackers and various other hopeful
organizations, he will find that such
schemes have been tried before and have
failed to work. The reason they have
failed was because the individual men,
bers of the several associations formed
to settle industrial OF social questions
were not a unit in politics and could not
be welded" as one man in the political
arena. 1t is a beautiful plan, but it in
variably slips a cog when the crank be-
gins to turn.

THE NATIONAL BANK CIRCULATION.

The abstract of the report of the
Comptroller of the Currency, published
yesterday morning, presents no more
important topic than that which relates
to the falling off of the circulation of the
national banks. The statement of the
situation, as made by the Comptroller,
is that the volume of national bank cir
culation outstanding Oct. 81 was $685.
co., 732, "of which S72, 279, 500 was repre-
sentcd by deposits of lawful money in
the Treasury" which means that circu-
lation to that amount is in process of re-
tirement, the bonds which were its basis
having been withdrawn and law
fnl money deposited to take up
the bank notes as they appear in the
Treasury and sub-treasurics. As a re-
suit, the voluntary circulation of the
banks at that time was S131, 3S3, 334,
against $685., 600, 600 in 1879. A year
earlier, Oct. 81, 1883, the voluntary
circulation of the banks was $152, 1885,
3ss8, or $50. 9S3, 994 larger than last Octo-
Der, showing a decrease during the year
to that amount. The decrease of circu-
lation in late years has been as follows:
1886, $50, 593, 533; 1887, $780, 96, Oe7; 1883,
1858 739. If the decrease next year is
not in excess of that of this year, it will
be due to the fact that the outstanding
bank notes do not reach the Treasury
in larger quantities, since the banks
have surrendered and practically re-
deemed S72, 600. 900 of their circulation.
To enter into an argument in behalf of
the usefulness of the national banking
system would be s~uperfiuous. A quar-
ter of a century's trial has proved it to
be the best banking system which has
aver been devised. Indeed, the fact
that 16S new banks were organized dur
ing the past year in spite of the large
premium upon government bonds, proves

THE MONTANA TROUBLE.

The enabling act passed by Congress
authorized the constitutional
ton to pass an ordinance for the man.
agement of the elections at which a Con-
stitution would be submitted to the peo-
pie, and State officers and a Legislature
should be elected. That ordinance pro-
vides hat the votes for State officers
and members of the Legislature shall be
returned to the Territorial Secretary
and be canyassed by the Territorial
board, consisting of the Territorial
Governor, Secretary and Chief-justice.
Governor Toole was a member of the
constitutional convention which adopted
that ordinance. Moreover, he is dis
charging the duties of Governor by
virtue of the declaration of his
election by the canvass of
the Territorial board. Nowhere
did the law confer upon him authority
to V the new Legislature, much
less to declare who will and who will
not be recognized as members of that
body. Nevertheless, he has issued a
proclamation in which he not only con-
yenes the Legislature, but declares that
those who appear as members with
the certificates Of the Territorial board
will not be admitted to the rooms to
which he has summoned the Legislature.
That is, the certificate of the Territorial
board was legal in his own case, but is
illegal and void when held by a men,
ber-elect of the Legislature. Yet, the
same law which gives the Territorial
board the authority to canvass the vote
for Governor extends the same au thor
ity, in the same words. to that
board to canvass the votes for members
of the Legislature, and issue to those
who appeal to be elected the usual GER
tificates.
But this is not the extent of the of
Tending of Governor ToOle. The same
ordinance declares that the members
elect of the State Senate should be
called to order by the Territorial Secre-
tary, and those of the House by the
Territorial Auditor. Both of these pro-
visions Governor Toole ignores. and
practically assumes the power thus con-
ferred upon other officials to himself.
In other words, Governor Toole has ig-
nored the law and usurped the func-
tons of the Territorial board, the
courts and the Legislature, in declaring
what he will recognize as a certificate of
membership. That is, Governor Toole
is playing the role of usurper in a high
handed manner.

In the current number of Harper's Weekly
Mr.. Curtis speaks of the Republican party
as a party that has survived the national
situation n the great issue whence il
sprang, and is now mainly a protective-tariff
party. Mr.. Curtis appears to think that
1t should not attempt ANYTHING further
after having overthrow slavery. and he
now acts with the Democratic party as a
free-trader. He apparently sees no reason
why the Democratic party should not con-
tinue to exist and work for free trade.
But why should not one party as much as
the other have disbanded when the slavery
question was settled? In 1850 the Repub-
lican party, while making its chief fight
against the extension of slavery, declared
itself in favor of a protective tariff. The
Democratic party was then as essentially "a
pro-slavery party as the Republican party
was an anti-slavery party. Why should
Mr.. Curtis feel that the pro-slavery party.
after being put to rout on tina issue, is
justified in surviving to contend for free
trade while he assumes that the anti
slavery. party has no right to live after
having put down slavery In advocating
a protective tariff the Republican party is
in harmony with the platform on which il
elected Abraham Lincoln, and il sees no
reason why it should not maintain ITS or

The enormous increase of government deposits
IN national banks during the last year OF Cleye-
lands Administrations can never be explained on
year the deposits jumped from $l9,l90,076 TO
$o4.9l3,4S9.-Journal.
There was never any financiering SO dis
honest as this paragraph. Ths deposits in
creased rapidly under Cleveland because
the venue of the government increased
rapidly, as the Journal knows.-SentIneL
AS al attempt to explain the enormous
increase of government deposits in ma
tional banks during Cleveland's admin
istration this is very weak. There was
no increase of government
during Cleveland's administration. The
net revenues of the government during
Mr.. Arthur's administration were: In
1881, $500, 7s2.292; in 1882, S4O3, 525 $3.50; in
1888. 1898. 2S7, 5S1; in 1884, S34S,519 500;
total revenue in four years, S1.511, IA
992. The revenues during the Cleve-
land administration we're: In 1885.
1928, $50, 706; in 1886, 1885,, 439, 727; in 1887,
1871, 4O3,277; in 1888, 1919, 1904; total
in four years, S1,41O, 799, 7S4. Yhe.rev-
enues actually paid into the Treasury
during four years of Cleveland's admin
istration were 800, 315, 21S less than dur
ing the four years of President Arthur's
administration. 1t is plain. therefore,
that the increase of deposits in national
banks couldnOt be accounted for by in
crease of revenues.
The report of the Treasurer of the
United States shows that the govern
ment balance in the national banks DUR
ing Mr.. Arthur's administration was as
follows: In 1881, 50. 933, $50; in 1882, &c.
61O,432; in 1883, $4,000, 1888. During
the Cleveland administration the gov
eminent balance i'm the banks was: In
1885, &c. S5, 141; in 1886, $14,036, 632;
in 1887, $40, 100, OS6; in 1883, S54,913,4Sg
Mark the steady increase from year to
year., and the enormous jump in the last
year. From 1877 to 1888 the government
deposits in the banks increased from
$11.476.372 to $50. OS2, 44s, and the net
balance from $40, 1900 to $54, 913, 4S9.
The Sentinel says this increase of de-
pOsits was due to an increase of revenue,
yet the revenues in 1883 were only ST.

that the enormous increase of govern
ment deposits in national banks during
the last year of Cleveland's administra-
ton can be explained on any prin-
ciple of honest financiering.
President Harrison is committed to the
policy of withdrawing the excess of gov
eminent deposits in national banks and
applying them to the purchase of bonds,
thereby stopping interest. Secretary
Window has already begun to do this,
and has already made a large reduction
in the deposits and a corresponding re-
ductiOn in the governments annual in
terest account. This course will be con-
tinued until the bank deposits are re-
duced to a normal figure. This is COM
