IGNATIUs DoNNELLY, one of the

platform of the Peoples Party, sued
the st. Paul Pioneer Press for libel,
fixing his damages at 100000. The
jury last Saturday awarded him $l,0O
damages and $500 for counsel fees.
If Ig's character is only worth dol>

SOME Democratic speakers and
newspapers continue to harp upon
the privilege granted to National
banks of issuing money, and Demo-
cratic conventions continue to reso-
lutte against the alleged evil. There
is lamentable amount of ignorance
prevalent in the public mind regard
ing the advantages accruing to the
banks from this privilege. Compare
lively few of the banks Of the coun-
try have the full amount Of currency
which they are entitled to issue, and
very many of them have none at all.
Any manwith a modicum OF common
sense should know that if the banks
could make it profitable they would
issue every dollar Of currency to
which they are entitled. Now If
more money is what the country
needs, we would like to enquire why
it would not be a good policy for the
Government to require every Nation
al bank in the country to issue its full
quote of National bank notes? We
see no reason why this plan would
not largely increase the quantity Of
money in the country, still we do not
see how it would materially benefit
the fellow who has nothing to give
in exchange for it.

AS he was credited when appointed with a

present salary he does not need the office he
holds, and while his family have entertained
we'll they are not high society swells and do
not prefer Washington to ST. Louis.
These facts furnish the basis .or the con-

Noble intends to resign. The Prediction has

tive Carter, the orightsst republican in
Montana, left a so 900 year practice, and
