MICaIGANS "wJLD-CAT" BANKS.

Some Points Well Worth the Con-
sideration of the People.
The Century magazines editorials on
cheap money experiments have been widely
copied and commented upon. In November
the following Topic" appears: 1.-THE hiss
tory of Michigan's wildcat banking ex-
perience, while not so applicable to present
financial discussion as other cheap money
experiments which we have cited In pre-
vious numbers OF the Century, is neverthe-
less instructive for two reasons: First, be-
cause it vas an attempt to make hard
times easier by unlimited issues Of ire
deemable paper money. and second, because
the money SO issued was based largely on
land as security. For these reasons it has
seemed to US worth while to recall it at the
present time.
Michigan became a state in January,
1887 Almost the first act of her state legls-
lature was the passage of a general bank
ing law under which any ten or more free
holders of any county might organize them
selves into a corporation for the transaction
OF banking business. or the nominal capi~
tai OF bank only 10 per cent. in specie was
required to be paid when subscriptions to
the stock were made, and 20 per cent. addi-
tional in specie when the bank began bust
ness. For the further security of the notes
which were to be issued as currency, the
stockholders were to give first mortgages
upon real estate. TO be estimated at its cash
value by at least three county officers, the
mortgages to be filed with the auditor gen :
eral of the state. A bank commissioner was
appointed to superintend the organization
Of the banks, and to attest the Legality of
their proceedings to the auditor general,
who, upon receiving such attestation was to
deliver to the banks circulating notes
amounting 20 two and a half times the
capital certified to as having been paid 10.
This law was passed in obedience to a
popular cry chat the banking business had
! become an 'odious monopoly that ought to

s4oo,ooo,ooo OF SILVER.
That Was the Amount In the Treasury
Oct. 81.
David 4. Wells in Hurper's Weekly.

Ddvid 4. Wells in HGrper's Weekly
The treasury Of the United States had in
store Oct. l. 1891. 34S, S41, 1913 silver dollars,
s15. S4S. $40 in the form of subsidiary silver,
silver bars to the value of SAL, 579, 253, trade
dollars (bars) g., 1894, 260; total $409, l6l, 1926
or, in round numbers, $400, 900, 900. The
government, furthermore, is increasing this
immense store by buying seven additional
tons OF silver every working day in the
year.
Now what does $4Oo, 900, 900 worth of sill
yer mean? Stated in figures, or expressed
In words, 1t conveys to minds as ordinarily
constituted no definite idea other than that
of an incomprehensibles something, endow wed
with certain OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES for
good, possibly for evil Yet silver is a
physical entity, possessing the properties of
length, breadth thickness, capacity to oc-
cupy or ill space, and weight. Let us apply
these properties to the $500, 900, 900, and note
some OF the resultO of such application.
Coined into dollars, the product will weigh
over 100000 pounds avoirdupois, or
1900 net TONS and if its movement is
desirable will necessitate for so doing the
use of !, 900 railroad freight cars carrying
eleven tons each, or 800 two-horse wagons
carrying each two TONS
A cubic inch of pure silver weighs about
OBS pound, and cubic foot about 657
pounds. Hence the $500, 100000, if melted
into solid mass, would occupy some 800
cubic feet, which In turn would make q
solid column OF pure silver foot square
aud about 61S miles high-the Washington
monument being $50 feet. Assuming a
load Of 100 pounds per man, an army of
22o, 600 men would be required to carry the
mass, and would make file, in close order,
80 miles long, occupying 80 hours in pass
ing given point" allowing nothing for
halts or RESTS"
The treasury counts its silver by weigh
ing 1t, which Is the part Of wisdom, In view
of the fact that man, counting at the rate
Of 200 dollar pieces per minute, steadily for
eight hours a day, Sundays included, would
be kept busy for considerably over eleven
years.
Piled one upon the other, the s4Oo, 00O. 900
would attain a hight of CTS miles; and
placed side by side they would carpet a
room fifty feet wide and nearly twenty-four
miles long.
Great, however as is the mass of silver at
present in the treasure houses" of the gov
ernment. it is being steadily increased by
the purchase of 81. 1000, 600 additional ounces
every year, or at the rate-as before stated
of seven tons for every working day of the
year.
