The motion to allow four delegates

being made that such motion es-

time to report. The balance of the

the temporary organization permanent.

have the nominations made before the
committee on resolutions reported,
but it was voted down.

The Tome School.

The Baltimore Sun last week pub.
fishes another chapter of this long
talked of institution OF the future.
The plans of the building have been
completed and are described as fol.
lows. The site and time for begin
ming the work are still among the
unnamed incidents.
The building will be constructed
in the Romanesque style of architec,
ture, 125x80 feet, and will be an i'm,
posing centre of a group of structures
to be designated as Jacob Tome
School House No. IL
The basement will be of granite
and ten feet high, the first and second
stories of sand brick, with redstone
trimming and the top story and
tower of redstone The building
will contain large assembly room, 46
by 81 feet; library, 80 feet square
fourteen class rooms, % by 80 feet,
and smaller rooms for the teachers
and pupils. This structure will cost
$4,000.
The gymnasium and work shop
will be the next building erected
The gymnasium will be 90x65 feet,
and will be equipped with all. the
modern apparatus conducive to physi,
cal development. The dimensions
of the work shop will be iS0x65 feet
Both buildings will be three stories
high. 1t is contemplated to erect
two other buildings at a future date,
making the number FIVE. The aggre
gate cost of the institute will be
$250,O00.
There certainly is no spot OF
ground in Port Deposit suitable for
such group of buildings. The in
corporators we're: Evalyn s. Tome;
John A. j. Ereswell, deceased; VIM.

Loans of the Greenback.

The Secretary of the Treasury in his re-
ports puts down $346, 900, 900 as the number
of greenbacks in circulation, which is the
amount less the number called in and de-
stroyed, that was issued in 1923. $780,
100000 were authorized by law to be issued +,
and nearly that amount was at one time in
circulation. 1t was withdrawn and destroy
ed till the amount in circulation was re-
duced TO $346 ,000. 900, supposing that none
had been lost or destroyed except those
accounted for.
The secretaries have all acted on the
hypothesis that none of these notes have
been lost by casualties of fire and field since
they were issued, which is now nearly
thirty years. The only criterion we have
for estimating the loss Of these notes is the
postal currency, which was called in about
Ten years after its Issue. One-tenlh of the
postal currency disappeared during that
comparatively short interval it was in use.
If the same ratio of loss is applied to the
greenbacks, not less than $l04 ,000, 900 must
have disappeared from circulation by SIM
liar casualties, reducing the amount Of this
100000. This is probably very near the
amount actually in existence, in place of
BAG million dollars as enormously stated in
the Secretaries reports. This currency was
paid to the soldiers IN the field and immense
sums could not fail of being lost and destroy
ed in those rough campaigns. Until we
have other than national bank Secretaries
from Wall street, and the present issue is
called in by the substitution of another TO
take its place, the people will never learn
the dark chapters in the history OF our inan.
cial system. It is so palpable that the
reports of the Secretary are false and mis-
leading that no one attempts to defend them
when challenged by well informed persons,

Of about 80 millions in premiums alone.
The demand" of the St. Louis platform
does not attempt to supply details. 1t goes
without saying that in order to distribute
"full legal tender" after being created
there must be the necessary machinery to
conduct the business of the country. This
has been perfected in every detail by the
present banking system, through which all
business is conducted. If the government
issues the money it is the duty of the gov
eminent 10 supply machinery to keep it in
circulation. This congress, in the interest
Of the money class, has done by delegating
that prerogative TO banking corporations,
which charge what they choose for perform
ing this important business for the public
A power which government can delegate
it can execute by machinery directly under
its own control. 1t could as readily become
the peoples banker as their mail receiver
and distributor. Every Post. Master General
for several administrations has urged the
policy of establishing postal saving banks.
l saving banks why not banks of deposit
loans and discount? There can be no rea-:
son raised against it that has the weight Of
a feather.
The 2 per cent interest named In the
above ''demand" might be one per cent or
less. II is interest on money-usury, that
has been the robber of industry to a more or
| less degree through all the ages; but many
times more at present than eyer before. A
true financial system is one designed wholly
TO promote labor but system with usury
attachments is plan to rob labor and every
species of industry. The more the usury
systems of finance is examined the more Of
an anomaly they appear. If the govern
ment assumed the banking business of the
country and charged the same rates of inter-
est that the banks do the funds which would
flow into the treasury would astound the
people. A thousand millions annually
would not begin to comprise the sum-
"The census reports say that thirty.
thousand million dollars is now loaned TO
the people and industries OF the country"
says contemporary writer Oh finance. This
sum at six per cent interest, aggregates a
yearly interest drawn from labor of So ,2OO..
100000. All this vast sum is paid for keep
ing set of books. The people should, and
they will, transfer the business of banking
from private hands to their own govern
ment, when once awakened to the enormous
tax that is laid on them by the banks in the
control Of private persons. Nobody would
touch the notes Of a private or State bank
while the United States legal tenders are
in circulation, and no person would do bus
mess through miscalled national banks if
government banks were established. That
would solve the sub-treasury and land loan
plans, and simplify the financial question:
which is causing so much agitation.

Talks cheap, but when it's backed up by
pledge Of the hard cash .oi a financially
responsible firm, or company, of worldwide
reputation for fair and honorable dealing, it
means business! Now, there are scores of
sarsaparilas and other blood-purifers, all
cracked up to be the best, purest, most
peculiar and wonderful, but bear in mind
(for yonr own sake), there's only one guar
anteed blood purifier and remedy for torpid
liver and all diseases that come from bad
blood. That one-standipg solitary and
alone-sold on trial, is DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. If it doesn't do good
in skin, scalp and scrofulous diseases and
pulmonary consumption is only lung
scrofula-just let its makers know and get
your money back. Talks cheap, but to
back a poor medicine, or common one,
by selling it on trial, as "Golden Medical
Discovery" is sold. would bankrupt the
largest fortune. Talks cheap, but only
"Discovery" is guaranteed.

A rRI-wEEKLY.

1t is now said to be a settled fact that
John Miller Murphy is to issue a cam
paign tri-weekly for Thurston county's
democracy. The first issue will appear
very soon and it will give Mr.. Murphy a
splendid opportunity to write some of
those "thunderers" on tariff reform for
which he is so well adapted. And, in con-
nection with these, just to illustrate, he
might give the readers some pointers on
municipal reform. Mr.. Murphy was one
of the city fathers covering a period within
which it is said that the distribution Of
dough" was not unknown. OF course, he
need not speak names or be at all personal,
but with the facts and figures, seek only
to teach the great lesson of reform, that
nutrition upon which Johns democracy
so loves to feed.
