THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The most notable part of the Presidents
message is. of course, its Recommended
tions regarding the currency.
We take ID that now, since the entire
administration has added its influence to
that of the bankers of the country in
favor of an abandonment Of the pro-
vision of the national bank law which
requires deposit of United States bonds
as a security for the issues of banks, it
may be fairly claimed that that most
UBIQUITOUS requirement of the national
bank act is doomed, sooner or later. In
this a great point has been gained in
the struggle TO free the people from the
domination of the bondholders and the
commercial centres, at any rate.
But that is about all that can be said
in behalf of the Presidents recoramenda-
lions. The Requirement that 30 per cent
of the issues of bank shall lie idle as
unproductive capital in the form of
United States notes deposited with the
Treasurer seems to take much of the
vitality out of the scheme.
We have not Secretary Carlisle's re-
port but we infer that, in addition to
the 80 per cent of Government notes
which the Presidents plan requires 20
be deposited as "a guarantee fund, the
bank issuing notes would also have for
its own protection TO keep either legal
tender notes or coin on hand 10 meet any
demand for payment by one of its note-
holders. This fund could not safely be
less than one dollar of coin or legal
tender for four of notes. and so the bank
would have its ability to accommodate
its customers still further reduced.
We cannot, however. determine this I'M
Ill the whole plan is unfoded. one thing
is sure. it is an improvement upon the
present hidebound tyrannica1 system.
AS might have been expected from
man of Mr. Cleveland's tenacity of opin-
ion and strong individuality, he still
sticks to his hobby of putting coal and
iror on the free list. But this is not
Democracy, all the same.
AS for sugar, the differental duty was
nothing but a bald-faced act of protec-
ton. and the President is soundy Demo
cratic in wanting 1t taken OFF.

A CORRESPONDENT REVIEWS DIR
FIGURES

We have no acquaintance with the
author Of letter published in another
column this morning, signed "A Reader"
though we know very well who he is
aor have we ever seen or heard from
MIN an expression of opinion concern
ing the free coinage Of silver. but we
feel that we run no risk in saying that
he is an advocate OF free coinage. Our
article in The Times OF November 18th,
which he reviews, was intended TO show
that silver is driving all our gold away.
and our correspondent argues that its
expectation may be due TO other causes.
This satisfies us that our argument
hurts his theories, and that he must
therefore be free coinage advocate.
We cannot concede that any one of
the circumstances commented upon by
our correspondent Will in any degree ac-
count for the facts which we cited in
our article Of the 18th, and we are com
PEELED 10 remain under just the same
impression regarding their significance
that we then had.
our correspondent argues that the
drain on our gold had set in In 1889 and
1890. whereas the Sherman law can
hardly be said TO have commenced de-
veloping any evil tendency it might have
had before January. 1891. 1t is true we
exported in 1889 SO. Co. 427 more OF gold
than we imported In that year. but then
the balance OF trade was against us
that year. Our imports exceeded our ex-
ports in 1889 by s2.7SO27. With the bal
ance OF trade against US 1t is very easy
10 account for an export OF $i9,OOO0oO Of
gold for Interest charges, freight and
money spent by travellers. The figures
for the next year prove conclusiyely
that this must have been the cause Of
the export OF gold in 1889. In 1890 the
surplus OF gold exports over gold i'm
ports was only ASSl.l47. but the balance
of trade was largely In our favor In
1880. being $6S.5ls.25 to the good. So
that II cannot be said an outflow Of
gold had set in In 1889 and 1890. There
had been an outflow in 1889 because we
had no credit abroad that year TO meet
the payments we had to make there.
but the next year. 1899. as We had an
abundance OF credits there 10 meet our
payments. we exported next TO no gold
at all
But what y the record from that
