tent, relieve the government of the
gold drafts on the Treasury, but does
not add q dollar to the volume ofcur-
rency, unless the banking is done on
wind instead of actual paid cash CAPT
tai.
If 80 per cent of the banks issue is
deposited with the government it is a
sum equal to 22a per cent of their cash
capital, and IS per cent is represented
by their issue, this, together, equals
97a per cent of the capital and leaves
but 2! per cent or $3.50 to measure
the power of honest expansion.
What the country needs is more
absolute money, not a fine drawn
system of banking.
Let congress restore silver to its
position as money and compel its use
by the government equally with gold
and the trouble will at once disappear.

The Journal, noting criticism
in the SENTINEL from "Victim" OF
Vinegar Hill, says that when the
SENTINEL printed the Tes,
Questions, no criticism appeared.
That is true. 1t is coincidence
that "Victim" furnished his criti
clsm now, when the Journal is the
organ and uot a year ago when the
SENTINEL was the preferred paper
The statement that the SENTINEL
publishes the criticism now does
not lessen the force or propriety OF
the criticism, but it in effects says
that we, the Journal, will not dare
to criticise while we suck the ex-
amipers little pap.

Glad to Accommodate,

Our esteemed cotemparary the Re
publican Gazette is laboring under
the delusion that he has US in hole.

The new Ohio Democrat takes the
old Ohio Sentinel to task for mislead.
ing the old line Democrats concerning
the relative strength Of Judge Bright
and Judge Huffman. 1t is none Of
our business when Democratic news
papers assail each other and question
each others political integrity, stand
ing and influence. That is a question
strictly between our Democratic con-
temporaries. What has our old moss
back, born-in the flesh died in The
wool Democratic friend Wilson have
to say about it?''
We suppose reference is herein
made to the following item which ap-
peared in the paper referred to as
The New Ohio Democrat"
Judge Huffman and Judge Bright
have cause for congratulation i'll this
that each ran ahead of his ticket in
his own county. This is atestimonial
that Will outlast in the long race of
life, the incidental election to Office.
Hooking Sentinel.
at seems to us that it is the purpose
of the Sentinel to mislead the public
mind in regard to the relative strength
of Judge Huffman and Judge Bright
in Hooking County, much to the dis
credit we think, to Judge Hufnanl
Why the Sentinel does this in not clear
to US and We call upon the editor of
the Sentinel to explain why's and
wherefores." i"
There is no explanation necessary.
A statement of fact never needs to be
elucidated to people of sense. Judge
Bright had 2196 votes to his credit
in Hooking County, and s. NJ. Taylor
had but 21SS, so Bright ran ahead of
his ticket leader.
There was much more difference
than thisin favor of Judge Huffman
in Perry when compared with Mr..
Turner.
This is what we said and was all
that we were talking about.
However life is too short for us
to start a Kindergarten to teachEnglish
to editorial squads.

The New Financial Scheme.

The new financial scheme as pro
posed by Secretary Carlisle does no,
commend itself to our judgement.
Briefly stated it contemplates about
the following: Take for example a
! new National Bank with capital
(paid up) of $4,000, it can issue in
its own notes S37,500 or IS per cent
of its unimpared capital. For gov
ernmental security of this issue the
corporation must deposit with the
Treasury s11 ,250, in any of the gold
demand notes ofthe government, and
pay an annual tax of one percent on
its issue.
Should any one of the banks fail, a
special tax will be levied on the other
banks of the same class to provide a
fund for the redemption of the issue
OF the defunct bank, and the banks SO
taxed shall have first lien on the
property of the defunct bank to the
extent of their tax. Some other min
or provisions are attached but the fore
going is the pith ofthe measure.
1t will be observed that this scheme
seems wholly bent to the protection of
the note holder, and in this regard
it seems to be quite successful, but
what protection have the depositors?
Are they not left wholly without Sc
curity for their accumulations.
This is our first objection.
Secondly We are unable to see how
any system of banking can relieve the
present monetary stringency.
The proposed plan may, 10 some ez-
