STATE BANKS.
The Wildcat Currency Scheme VIII lie
Pushed For All 1t Is Worth.

Pushed For All II is Worth.
Says the Pittsburg kan Kansan:
There are four infamous measures to
be carried through the Fifty-third con-
gress. ~ The Harter bill to base the
national circulation on railroad and
corporation bonds. ~ Continue the
Pacific railroad indebtedness for fifty
years. (S) Repeal the 10 per cent state
bank tax. (4) The Nicaragua subsidy
of 500, 900, 900.
"The first and most infamous of these
bills is before the present congress, but
will probably not be pushed any fur
ther. Congressman Clover's public I'M
provement and other bills so completely
met all the requirements of national
currency that Harter did not dare to
push the claims of his bill, lest it might
bring out the features of the Clover bill
and by contrast forever destroy the
chances of his own"
"Harter is an Ohio democrat and has
been reelected. His bill has been in
dorsed by Wall street and all the great
corporations, so that the chances of its
passage are very favorable. Its adop-
ton means the financial shaving of this
people to the railroads till revolution
wipes it out"
This state bank currency scheme was
one of the inducements held out by
Judas F. Tillman to get southern ALI.
ancemen to vote the democratic ticket.
One of the pamphlets sent out by him
was an exhaustive argument upon the
merits Of such scheme.
Already has the Legislature of one
southern state taken the democracy al
its word, as is evidenced by the follow
Associated Press dispatch:
ATLANTA. Ca, Nov l6-To-day an important
bill was introduced in the legislature to allow
the state banks to issue bills The bill pro
vides that the governor. the state treasurer
and the comptroller shall be commission &c
have engraved and printed, in manner calcu
lated to guard against counterfeiting, at the
expense Of the bank issuing them such notes as
said bank desires after said bank deposits, as
collateral, state or municipal bonds TO an
amount equal TO the notes. To protect the cir
culation then the state shall indOrse the notes.
The law is to take effect as soon as the governor
is notified that congress has repealed the act
levying tax Of 10 per cent on the circulation
notes OF the state banks.
This is, of course, simply an extension
of the national banking system in &C.
cordance with the southern idea of
states rights Instead of national
bonds, the bonds of the several states
and the cities therein are to be used as
security and while the people continue
to pay the interest upon the bonds the
owners thereof will have almost their
face value in state bank bills to loan to
the people for all the traffic will bear.
The state will become money utterer
and lender. while the state banks will
act as loan agents or go-betweens be-
tween the people and the state.
This puts Cleveland between the
devil and the deep sea-" VIII he, or
won't he, sign a bill repeating the act
levying tax of 20 per cent? He'll be
damned if he does" with the masses Of
the people, and he'll be damned if he
don't in the southern states Poor

things, that he was follower of Malone. "
This General Field Indignantly denies in de-

to insert his statement.
For whatever injustice we have done Gen
eral Field we are perfectly ready to make
due amends. 1t is true, as he says, that he
was not follower Of Malone to the extent
of going with him into the Republican
ranks. and we ought TO have go stated. but
he was one Of his Readjuster friends and we
were under the impression, but we did not
state it, that he stumped the State for the
Hancock electors in opposition to the reg
ular Democratic party. But General Field
denies this also. and says he canvassed Viz
ginia for the regular Hancock electoral
ticket against the Malone ticket. so in this
thought we did him an injustice. though we
had not charged him with that piece Of
treachery.

MARTIAL LAW AT HOMESTEAD.

The first announcements made to the
public were that martial law had been de-
clared at Homestead. Later announce
ments, however. are TO the effect that only
amodifed form of martial law has been de-
clared. just what this modified form of
martial law may establish as the legal status
We are unable even to conjecture. The
term martial law" was for a long time
OF unsettled meaning in this country. But
short time before our late war it re-
ceived a very full discussion from
Caleb Cushing, as Attorney General of
the United States. and the conclusion ar
rived at by him was that it meant
the abrogation and suppression Of all law.
1t is condition of things in which the will
and discretion of the military commander is
supreme within his district. This view has
been accepted ever since as the true defni-
ton of martial law. To declare martial law
in any district is therefore a very serious
matter. 1t means that the military COM
mander may shoot whom he pleases or that
he may do whatever else be pleases without
accountability to any one except his mill
tary superiors. We hope no occasion will
arise in this country for any such state of
things as this.

''of all things workingmen should avoid
labor suicides. They have made hundreds
of thousands of idle men who honestly de-
sire TO work to maintain their families, and
they have made untold numbers of starving
women and children by the arbitrary action
of inflated labor leaders. Every mans first
duty is to his family. and whenever labor

punctilio to compel a workingman who is
employed at satisfactory service and wages

what was the labor cost of getting out a

therefore Congress has right to know
what profits the iron works of the country

STATES like Idaho and Wyoming, which
call on the Federal Government for aid to
suppress a common riot, and are compelled
20 ask for United States troops TO auell a
band of cattle-lifters or few hundred re-
bellious miners, lack the first attributes of
free Commonwealth. A contemporary says
that when the Federal Government is
obliged to perform ordinary police duties
among them on every occasion they are
States only in name. They would be the
mere counterfeits and phantoms of sover-
eign States but for the political power
which they exercise in the Senate and in

Law Reform.
RICHMOND. Va, July 10, 1892.
Editor OF The Times:

Editor of The Times:
In your editorial on the subject Of Law
Reform" you say to-day that the State
Bar Association at Old Point has voted for
what is practically adopting the New York
Code In this you are mistaken
1t was resolved that it is the sense
of this Association that law and equity pro-
cedure should be consolidated, so that legal
and equitable rights can be ADM Mustered in
one form of action" This resolution has
been pending before the Associa-
ton since July 3, 1890. A re-
port was made recommending its
adoption in the year 1891, but it was not
voted upon and adopted until July -. 1892.
The report of the special committee on law
reform does not recommend the New York
practice, but the English Judicature act Of
1873, and the forms and rules of court made
IN pursuance OF that famous act IL also
contains the Connecticut Practice act OF
1879. which is taken directly from the Eng
ilsh judlcature act Of 1873.
The Association also adopted another re-
solution recommitting the report TO the same
committee: adding 70 II Hon. John Ran
dolph Tucker and Hon. II. T. Barton. who
are required 10 report q bill based on the
English Practice act Of 1873, with rules of
court and all necessary forms. The New
York Code was considered, but the English
Practice act was preferred.
In our conservative mother country the
new procedure has given great satisfaction.
aud has now been in force eighteen wears.
The examination of that act will satisfy any
one that the fusion of law and equity pro-
cedure is great improvement upon our
present separate systems of law and equity.
correction will oblige the committee. as
not one OF them fayors the New York Code
Of Procedure. Very respectfully,
S. s. L. PArrrsoy.

no degree Of regularity. A few nights

there was not street light burning
in this city. When | asked at the power
house what the trouble was the laconic re-
ply came back through the phone: The
trouble is out on the line" This was all
could get from them. 10 the council meet
ing a few nights ago Mr.. Sims asked that
the light committee look into the matter OF
the lights and find out why it was that they
50 often were not burning, and also 10 rs
