class. But 1t IS an Inconvenience to
all, for no system of postal notes or
postal orders can be as convenient for
small remittances as was this fractional
currency. And it is loss to the peo-
pie of the United States as a whole
since in the fractional currency a con-
siderable part of the public debt was
kept in non-interest bearing form.
That much of the fractional currency
was dirty and ill-smelling was no argu-
ment against it, any more than the
d'rtiness of a shirt is an argument
against the wearing of shirts. 1t would
be easy to keep fractional currency al
most as fresh and as clean as Bank of
England notes. if the same policy were
adopted of always paying out fresh
currency from Government officers and
depOsi,ories.

CORRESPONDENCE.

Following is a sample of the letters
that are beginning to come. All these
gentlemen have been promptly supplied
with tracts on single tax and tariff
questions. which we hope they will dis
tribute among their friends, and then
write Us for more. To these gentlemen
and 10 others, whose letters we have
not the space to publish. we return
thanks. It is a pleasure to find our
efforts appreciated, and every letter
gives us new confidence in the plan we
have adopted for the popularization of
the single tax among our brother toilers
of the country:

Our next letter is from lawyer, Mr..
D. Ii. Hammons, of Bentonville, Ark.
He writes
In obedience to your request, published
in the Memphis Appeal for December p,
1889, L have to say that l am, and have ever
been, Democrat. l have spent my best
days in the service of the Democratic party,
in whose service, God willing, l hope to
die. | have ever been a free trader, and
believe that full acceptance of the DEM
ocratic faith promulgated by its greatest
apostle, Thomas jefferson, must ul .imately
render all his disciples such. But what
system of taxation shall be substituted for
the tariff: That is the question. The single
tax offers the best solution have yet seen.
