States notes payable III coin on
demand, in amounts sufficient for the
useful ends of a represe NATIVE cur
rency.
"Second. The delivery of banking
associations Of notes prepared for cir
culation under national direction, and
secured for prompt convertibility into
coin, by pledge Of United States
bonds and other needful regulations.
The secretary did not favor the first
plan. He feared that the temptation
to issue notes would overcome the
caution which should be exercised to
provide adequate means for their re-
demption. The second plan, with the
taxing feature of the first, had his ap-
prevail; and the national banking
system was subsequently reared upon
it. This was not altogether a new
financial device. cit is not said the
secretary in his report, can untried
theory" In the state of New York,
and in one or more of the other states,
it had been subjected, in its most es-
sential parts, to the test Of expert
ment, and was found practicable and
useful. 1.-The probabilities of its sue
cess" said he. evil not be diminish
ed but increased by its success under
national sanction for the whole
country" It is said that Eleazur
Lord, of Piermont, New York, was
the first to propose the free banking
system Of that state. Willard Fill
more, when comptroller of New York
in 1849, suggested the issue Of bank
notes secured by stocks of United
States, and receivable at the national
Treasury for all public dues. The
Hon. Orlando B. Potter. of the city
of New York, addressed letter to
Secretary Chase on Aug. IA, 1861, in
which he submitted plan for a
national paper currency, which he
says, in a recently published pamphlet,
6 was substantially adopted in the
National Banking Act passed Feb. Is,
1868. However this may be, Salmon
2. Chase, of Ohio, was secretary of
the treasury at the time. To him must
be given the credit Of the plan for a
national paper currency, based on
the national stocks, and thus secured
by the government itself. Whether
he invented this plan, or whether he
adopted it, matters not. 1t was
through his great financial genus that
by single stroke of the pen, as it
were, a bank-note currency as secure
as the government credit could make
it, was substituted for paper cur
rency which varied in value in every
state, and tluctuated from par to nil,
according to the value Of the stock, if
any, pleged for its redemption. y =
But whether the reader favors or op-
poses this system, he must admit that
it is strengthened the government
credit, and created currency Of uni
form value as stable as that credit
could make it,"

The impatient citizen who, exasper-
ated at the provoking and unnecessary
delay Of the senate in coming to vote
on the silver bill, would invoke the
arbitrary rulings of Thomas b. Reed,
for the government of that body,
should pause to reflect, that it was the
liftieth congress, presided over by Mr..
Reed, that saddled upon the American
people the twin curses, the Sherman
silver bill and the Mckinley tariff law,
without which there would be no
panic and no necessity for an extra
session of congress.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1893-10-13

1t is easy so prove conclusiyely that
the panic of 1898 was caused by the
danger of currency debasement, and
not by the danger of tariff revision.
Had there been no fear of silver
standard there would not have been SO
much boarding of gold, nor so much
exporting of gold; and, if the manu-
facturers simply closed down their
mills for fear of tariff reduction, a
large increase in the amount of idle
capital would have been the result
This thought is thus illustrated by
Byron w. Holt, an eminently sound
writer upon economic questions:
The present is Il financial panic. If it
We're due TO 4 tariff scare, we should
have more rather than less money with
which to do business. At least one-half
of our manufacturers, merchants and
business men are using borrowed CAPT
tai. They sell for credit and discount
for cash the notes which they obtain. If
business We're at standstill because of
uncertainties in regard to the tariff,
there would be less demand for capital,
money would be a drug on the market.
and interest would be unusually low.
On the contrary, money never before
commanded such high rates of interest
in times of peace as during the past few
months. And this in spite of the fact
that there is today more gold and silver
outstanding in the United States than
ever before. Business wants to go on.
This is what makes the demand for mon
ey. 1t cannot proceed because of the APP
parent scarcity of money and the fabu-
lous rates of interest. Those who pos
sess money will not for ordinary interest
part with it for more than few days.
Here is the cause of the present trouble.

4 great deal of interest is taken at
the present time in proposed legisla-
ton etfecting the currency. Silver
purchase repeal of course is the up
permost in the minds of the people.
But after that is settled. the PROPOSE
ton to repeal the tax of ten per cent
upon state bank circulation may come
up for serious consideration; and in
this connection the account of the i'm
position of this tax, as given by S. s.
Cox in his Three Decades of Federal
Legislation, is timely reading;

The floating and bonded indebted
ness of the Columbian exposition was
on Monday, Oct. 9-Chicago day
cleared away, by the issuance of sin
ole check for one million five hundred
and sixty-fve thousand three hundred
aud ten dollars and seventy-six cents.
The check was signed by A. F. See
berger, treasurer, and countersigned
by William X. Alderman, auditor.
Thus is the fair success, not only as
an exhibition of humanity's attain
ments in all that makes for the world S
advancement, but also a success in a
monetary sense. Chicago is indeed to
be congratulated The attendance at
the great fair, on Monday, Of more than
seven hundred and fifty thousand peo-
pie, put all past records in the shade,
being nearly double that of the greatest
day of the Paris exposition, which was
three hundred and ninety seven thous-

and every citizen of America may well
rejoice over the fact.

NEARING AN END.
A Decision VIII soon he Reached in the
Panama Case.

PARIS, Jan. 25.-The interest in the
Panama trial increases as the end comes
near. The approaches to the court were
crowded as soon as the gates were opened.
Many prominent men were present, and
also a number of ladies. When NJ.
Charles de Lesseps, NJ. Marius Fontane
and NJ. Cottu were brought in they
promptly asked leave to confer with their
counsel before the resumption OF pro-
ceedings. The accused and their counsel
talked eagerly toget her. While the con-
sultation was in progress, NJ. Eiffel en-
tered and shook hands with his fellow de-
PENDANTS. He did not, however, join in
the conferences. NJ. Charles de Lesseps
seemed to be earnestly advising his coun-
sci with frequent and emphatic gestures.
Maitre Barbour resumed his argument in
behalf OF his clients.
He said that the payments made to the
press to obtain the approval OF the news
papers for the Panama enterprise could
not be held to constitute swindling. The
original estimates OF all great undertake
ings were always exceeded. The Man
chester end the Corinth canals might be
mentioned as instances.
NJ. Barbour made a lengthy explanation
OF the Couvere and Hersent contracts. He
declared that the popularity OF Ferdinand
de Lesseps was as great today as in 1854.
He dwelt enthusiastically IN the receipt
ION accorded to Ferdinand de Lcsseps by
NJ. Ricard, when mayor OF Rouen. Charles
de Lesseps, continued NJ. + .rboux, inher-
tied the respect in which his father had
so long been held. His arrest had caused
a feeling OF stuperfaction at home and
abroad.
As TO any fault which might be found
with the plans adopted for the canal, NJ.
Barbour pointed out the conflict between
the opinions OF engineers on the subject,
some advocating q level canal and others
a lock canal.
The figures MS to the amount OF ship
ping that would pass through the canal
and the consequent profit of six or seven
per cent OF the investment Of 1000, 900, 00,
francs, NJ. Barbour continued, were the
estimates of competent men.
