Wesleyan Students Decide for Honest
 Exams.


 MIDDLETowN, Feb. 13.-The Wesleyan students have determined to root out the evil of ''skidding" in examinations. At 6 college meeting this morning they decided to take the matter into their own hands sf ter President Raymond offered them the opportunity of deciding how the mid yea, examinations should be conducted during this week. After President Raymond's ad. dress the members of the faculty left the chapel and the students dig cussed the matter. A secret ballot resulted in the adoption, with only IA dissenting votes, of the so.oalled "Princeton system" In accordance with this decision the old system of espionage will be entirely discarded and students will be put upon their honor.
 At the close of the examination each student will be required to sign the follow ing statement on bis examination paper: 7T have neither used nor given any ss. sistance during this examination"
 The plan was put into immediate opera ton to-day and worked we'll. The senti- ment of the whole college is strongly in favor of it.

The whole free silver deiusion for fifteen
years past Is not complimentary TO the
general intelligence of our people. There
does not seem 10 be any good reason why
We should have ever enacted our stupid
policy OF silver purchase and coinage In
1878 and IL seems extraordinary that we
should have persisted in thst policy for
fifteen years. only to be driven out of 1t by
. financial panic that seems 70 have thor
oughly frightened persons who were in
capable Of conviction.
Another remarkable thing, exceedingly
discreditable TO popular intelligence. Is
the hostility to national banks. As mat
ter Of fact. there are some 1000 banks,
with capital in round numbers of 500,
1900, divided into 1000. 900 shares of 500
each. These shares are held by very
large number OF persons, the larger part OF
them in small amounts, and great num-
Der OF them belong to women. or are held
In trust for minors and other legatees.
These persons, whether many or few. have
no monopoly OF this advantage of circula-
ton, since banking 10 az open TO all who
care 10 20 into IL as any other form OF bus
mess, and requires no more capital than
many other kinds of business.
The issue OF the notes is no profitable
monopoly" for the banks do not use the
privilege to moro than one-half OF what Is
allowed by Law. Their capital entities
them to issue some 500 000. 900 in notes;
they had outstanding only some $40, 0oo.-
600 until the recent troubles induced them
very slightly TO increase this amount. The
banks are now allowed TO issue currency
10 90 per cent. of tho face value Of their
United States bonds, now above par. AS

the bank currency, and as the security is
