conduit there are sories of cylinders
coupled together which are mado to re-

was that Of insolvent banks-less than Al
per cent. The amount collected from the
assets of tho 1870 banks that have failed has
100000 of individual liability. So that the
amount collected from the assets has been
more than enough TO pay for all the insol-
vent bank circulation III IL had been en-
tirely unsecured. We propose 20 leave
only so per cent of the circulation unse-
cured-an amount which, during the last
twenty-five years, would have been only
st,500,O0O or $3.50, 900 year, when the cir
culation was an average Of S300, 0,0OO,Oo0.
with an estimate of sIS0,0O0 circulation
To pay this year, we propose 10 create a
sinking fund by n tax of per cent. upon
the circulation. During last year this
would have realized 81, 100000. II the cir
culation increases 10 s200,O0o, 900, the tax
will amount TO s2,0O0,000 If the circula
ton should increase TO S30O,0O0,O00, we
would have tax of S3,OO0,00 collected
with which To pay Sls0,O0O, provided the
banks will be as well managed in the fu-
ture az they have been In the past.
"This 80 per cent. of circulation Is len
unsecured, upon the principle that more
than three-fourths of the banks are man

year 1907, when the per cents. become
due and payable, we would have more than
Si0,000O00 In the safety fund, less the
amount used To redeem the insol-
vent notes unprovided for by the security
which amount, If the banks aro as wen

not be over Si,OO0,000. So that after 1907

THERE Is very bold and vigorous orator
among the negroes of the Carolinas He
Is DIR. J. G. Price, the president of u, So
called, negro college at Salisbury, n. g.,
who thus rebukes those of his race who
complain of their color: BLACK is favor
ite color. A black horse we all admire. a
black silk dress is gem. A black broad
cloth suit is n daisy. Black only loses
lis prestige its dignity, when APP
pliel to human. IL IL not because
OF his color, but because of his
condition, that the black man is in dis
favor. Whenever black face appears IL
suggests a poverty stricken, an ignorant
race. Change your conditions; exchange
immortality for morality, ignorance for in
tellgence, poverty for prosperity, aud the
prejudice against our race will disappear
like the morning dewdrop before tho rising
sun" He ridiculed the idea of moving the
black race back to a. frica and found hope
In the fact that the negro is initiative. "Tho
Indian always does the opposite from what
he sees the white man do. Hence he has
gone down. 1t is just the reverse with tho
negro. A white man gets n house painted
white, with green blinds; the negro does
tho same. The white man rides in
buggy; the negro gets one too. Rome
initiated Greece; England initiated Rome;
America initiated England. It's help
every time, and tho negro is following right
in the white mans steps"
This is a very proper spirit, and If fair
proportion of the race could be imbucd
with il, there might be no race question,
but 1t may he remarked that tho negro has
been an initiative creature for good
many thousand years but has built up no
civilization in Africa, and ruined what
little was given him when left to himself in
Hayti. He had tho advantage of contact
with ancient Egypt in tho full develop
ment OF tho earliest civilizations, bat his
Initiative qualities did not enable him to
follow Egyptian civilization.

DEFEATING 4 UORTHY MEASURE.

The bill which provides that the Police JUS
tees of this city shall be lawyers was reported
favorably to the Assembly from the Committee
on Cities. to which it had been referred. Yes
terdav. however. when the bill came up for
consideration the Democratic members of that
body aided by few Republicans who ought
70 have been in better business, contlivcd to
secure the defeat of this excellent measure.
The proposition put forth by those who en-
tered into this combination that clcar-hcaded
business man is perfectly capable OF dlscharg-
ing the duties of a Police Justice is a plausible
one and works well in theory The passage
of the bill possibly would not have been de-
mandcd if men alike competent and trust
worthy were commonly selected 70: the police
bench of this town. But our Tammany
rulers. with that fine contempt for the public
veal which has always been one of their
characteristics. never have he>itaicd to give
these places Of responsibility to utterly unfit
persons Instead of aiming to fill them with
men commanding the general confidence they
have in fact, as a rule commonly bestowed
them upon politicians of small attalnments
and no character TO speak of, but who were
known 10 have "pull.'
If the bill in question had become law
Tammany's power for evil in this direction
would have been wholcsomely restrained. since
few of the ward hcclcrS on whom she is always
ready TO bestow favorS are bona hdc members
of the legal profession. Consequently the
Assemblymcn who are responsible for the de-
feat of the bill are fairly TO be charged with
having thrown away fine opportunity OF
raising the standard of an important part cot
the public service of this town.
That Democrats should have done this thing
is not strange for Democratic legislators have
a fatal facility for getting on the wrong side
of bills providing for much needed reforms.
But it is different with Republicans. Our party
friends in Albany who fought against this bill
made a record which their constituents will
not indorse The Republicans Of this state
have never taken kindly to Tammany Hall,
and certainly in the light of recent inveStiga-
tions they are in no mood 10 tolerate any action
on the part of their representatives which Is
calculated to inure TO the benefit OF that scan
dalous organization.

UORK To BE DONE. IN JERSEY CITY,
The wrath of honest people in Jersey City
has been aroused too late. II they had Deeh
as much in earnest during the campaign as
they have been since election they might have
won a victory which Oie>tes Cleveland and his
ring of swindlcrs would have found it impoS-
sible to reverse. They had their own expert
cnce and the admonitions Of reputable journals
on both sides of the river TO warn them that
The ballot thieves were prepared to steal
majority. and il was within their power TO pol
an honest vote of such size that 1t couid not DC
overcome except by frauds so OBVIOUS anu 10
GIGANTIC as 70 make conviction certain. As
il is abundant evidence of Democratic knayery
exists 10 make n contest imperative, though IL
NAV not be possible to prove that Cleveland
declared majority is entirely fraudulent.
This tardv indignation may yet accomplish
n useful work, if il is not permitted 10 reidN
until the last means of bringing a gang OF
shameless scoundrcls to justice has becn'eA
bausted No other way of atOning for then
own neglect of duty is now left to those who

the purpose Of making protest against the
seating Of Cleveland. There is no doubt that
il will he n vigorous demonstration. ana II VIII
be useful as a means OF compactlnG pubnc
sentiment: but the jersey City ring care little
for proceedings of such character. a legal
process, supported by abundant subscriptions
and fought through in grim earnest, Is de-
mandcd. We are glad to see that Mr.. Per
l,ins the anti-ring candidate, is ready to begin
the struggle, and that liberal contributions
of money and hearty pledges of assistance are
coming in. There is still possibility that the
dctestabe work done last Tuesday in behalf
of a detcstabc candidate may prove to be a
milestone around his neck.
