A WONDERFUL SCHEME.

The Philadelphia Record contends that
State banks of issue can be made per-
fectly secure; that they can be made so
sound indeed, that their notes will pass
current as readily as national notes. 1t
adds this peculiarly shady argument:
1t should be remembered that no authority
exists Tor making State bank notes a legal
tender for debts This disability alone would
prevent the circulation of such currency in
any part of the country unless undoubted
security Tor redemption in legal tenders
should be provided.
So, then, we are to remove the prohib-
itory tax on State banks of issue, as the
Democratic platform demands, and trust
to each one of the States to properly Leg
islate to prevent wildcat banking; next
we are to believe that self-interest will
make each of these banks so conduct
itself as to inspire faith equal to one hum
dred cents on dollar for their notes in
all parts of the land, since they cannot
be made legal tender for debts.
We submit to even the commonest
financial Judgment, that this is an amaz-
ing scheme; that it asks the people to re-
pose in half hundred Legislatures con-
fidence that no Legislature has ever in
spired; that it asks the people to consent
for thousand bankers to flood the ma
ton with currency that would, at the
very best, be a source of annoyance to
business men, and direct daily loss to
every wage-earner and worker whose
tradesmen and employers would force
these shin-plasters upon them.
According to the scheme of the Phila-
delphia Record and the Democratic party
to every dinner bucket there would have
to be attached daily sheet of bank quo
tations, to every pick and shovel con-
vex lens to enable the wielder to dis
tinguish genuine from counterfeit notes;
to every counter bank note detector,
while in every household the rule would
be, first after family prayers examine
bank note quotations. that we may ascer-
tain if we are able to purchase the next
meal"
People who remember in the ffties
how wife and daughter and son went to
market with hands full of the notes of
Squat Ham Bank, Indiana; Mechanics
Bank of Podunk, Missouri; Farmers
Savings Union Bank of Pin Hook, Ar
kansas; Ohio Savings Institution of God
send; Rensselaer, Bank of Trust of Texas;
Seedtime Swindle Bank of Michigan, and
so on, and came back with a vague idea
that they had been suddenly bankrupted
by the corner grocer, who quoted their
dollars down to cents, will not hasten to
applaud the plank in the Democratic
platform that calls for a return to the
good old days"

dressed i'm a jaunty white beaver hat and

in three divisions, with the floats in be-

The joy Of this famous club was some
what curtailcd by the fact that their
president, Mr.. James f. Flournoy, was
deferred from taking part because Of the
recent death Of his sister.
The Thurman Club was splendidly rep

corps. Among the funny features in this
display was jumper occupied by Messrs.

At Seventh and Broad streets the scene
I'D and down Bread street was an tnspir-
ing one.
Both ways one looked there was the
long chain of light, the sea OF heads and
fireworks. rockets, torches and bombs.
The air was full of the crash and blare
of the bands and the rattle Of drums and
ffes.
The cars were blocked north and south
on Seventh street. waiting for the pa
raiders to give up the right OF way tn
them.

The Printers Democratic Club made a
fine showing, and following them rolled
into line the Richmond Cycle Club.
There were fifty men In this turnout, in
charge Of Captain c. NJ. Frischkorn.
The wheels of the machines were gayly
decorated with red, white and blue rib
bons. All the riders carried japanese
lanterns. IT was a beautiful sight.
II is hardly exaggeration to say that
the turnout of the men from the Rich
mOnd Locomotive and Machine Works
was the feature Of the evening, and
their float was the biggest thing in line.
The band from the United States Sol
dierS' Home, at Hampton, preceded
them. Twenty-seven men were in it,
under Bandmaster Levy. The drum
major was NJ. Seidell. Seven hundred
and fifty men marched behind this
band, and right well did they represent

When The Times float passed the
building IL created general admiration.
On the grand stand the crowd began
to assemble as soon as the procession
had turned into Grace street. The mid
die part Of the stand was reserved Tor
the members of the city committee and
invited guests. AS soon as the head OF
the procession passed there in the coun-
ter march, that section Of the stand be-
came quite lively.
Among the distinguished spectators
were three congressmen-elect-Mes

The two Congressman from out OF
town, Messrs. Tyler and Epes, were
very cordially received by their numer-
Gus Richmond friends. and heartily con-
graduated on their recent victory.
Justice John was very enthusiastic
over the successful demonstration which
surpassed all expectations. He promised
his friends faithfully that in honor OF
the memorable event he would dismiss
this morning all prisoners brought before
him on the charge OF drunkenness, white
persons as well as blacks, with curtain
lecture without infllcting the usual fine.
City Clerk Ben. T. August made very
imposing appearance as he rode as big
