condemned. 1t is illegitimate, be-
cause it does not aim to accom-
plish the true results of advertis-
ing, setting forth the desirability in
price and quality Of the advertis-
er's goods, but aims to interfere
with the business of others by ex-
citing social, or religious, or class
prejudice against them. Such
advertisers do not contine them
selves to abuse of their rivals in
trade, but include in it all Of the
same race, or religion or class, no
matter in what business engaged.
All such advertising savors OF an
undetermined attempt to boycott
the prescribed class and is as
meanly futile as it is illegitimate.
No right minded person but loves
fair play, and such advertisers on
~ bring down upon them the repu-
diation of all good citizens. There
is nothing fair or manly about it
and it is so recognized. Such ad-
vertisers not only fail Of securing
trade by such illegitimate means,
but they render themselves objects
of suspicion. The great public will
naturally conclude that such adj
vertisers cannot do business in
a legitimate way, in competition
with other business men, and so
resort to illegitimate methods,
and once this conclusion is
reached trade for that advertiser
is gone. And the public is right;
the man who resorts to illegiti-
mate means of advertising to in
jure rivals in trade, by invoking
prejudice against them as a class,
cannot be depended upon for legit-
innate business in other ways.
The history of business will con-
firm this conclusion and show in
ninety-nine cases out Of hun
dred that such business man is
a failure or fraud.

Texas Democrats have about
concluded their fights within par
ty lines and will be at peace, I'M
less the fight is continued outside
Of party lines, in which case it
will be not peace but pieces.
There are three months more and
then the ballots will be cast and
the agony will be over and the
country will have pronounced its
verdict Of lack Of confidence in the
Democratic party. Selah!
There is nothing wanting just
now by the Republicans in Texas
but good horse sense to make them
masters of the situation in several
of the districts. Such sense is not
born of factional strife.
Every endorsement of Cleveland
by the conventions assembling in
Texas is an endorsement for the
Neweses, and will be so accepted by
all unbiased minds. The Newses
are not yet in the soup.

Populist support dominates Pop
ulist and the Democrats fall into

in the districts where the Demo-

honors are easy. 1t is a cold day

Never before was there such gen.
eral party overhauling of Congress
sional representatives. 1t is not so
much special and individual dis
content as general dissatisfaction,
and this it is that renders the sit
uation so difficult of remedy. All

cans under two years ago. The

MR.. WARNER's BILL.

Mr. Warner. OF New York. has intro
duccd into the House of Representatives
bill abolishing the tax of 10 per cent.
on the issues OF State banks, as far as
It could apply TO notes to be issued under
his act. Although this tax should be
repealed absolutely and Internationally
as an unconstitutional tax and an I'M
warrantable interference with the free
dom OF business. IT is not probable any
thing more liberal in this respect Will be
passed by this Congress than Mr.. War
ncrs bill. and we shall no doubt have
TO content ourselves with that, even If
we can get that.
The principal features OF MIR. Warmers
bill are that state banks may issue cir
culating notes to the extent OF 10 per cent
OF their paid-up capital Out they can
issue none until at least $4,000 of their
capital is paid up). and national banks
may change their charters under the act
ana they may then issue notes 10 the
extent OF as per cent. OF their paid-up cap
ital unimpaired. They are to get their
notes from the Comptroller Of the Cur
ittstff anu tht btt'S oiistii state bu lUtlT
faces % whether they are the issues Of
the present national banks changed into
banks under the act. or OF State banks;
CD n OF State banks, of what State: CD
the bank by which they are issued. The
Comptroller Is not TO issue these notes to
state banks until he is satisfied
% That by the laws OF the state in
which the bank is. the notes are a frs.
lien on all the assets OF the bank, and
that the stockholders are each liable
for the notes 10 the extent OF the par
value OF their stocks.
CD That the bank has made adequate
provision for a redemption fund.
CD That 1T has compiled with all the
requirements of the act
1t then provides that the State banks
shall make five reports year OF .hcir
condition 10 the Comptroller of the Cur
rency. who can also call for special re-
ports when he chooses. ana he can also
appoint examiners to visit them whenever
he pleascs.
II then provides for a tax OF onc-half
OF l per cent. per annum as note re-
demption fund. but this proyiso has con-
ditions which we confess to be not quite
inteiligiblc 10 us.
This bin goes a bow-shot beyond any |
proposition ever asserted heretofore con- |
cernins tho power OF Congress over this |
subject. Heretofore the suppression OF |
state banks has. been accomplished by the
pretence OF imposing tax upon their
issues which was made 80 heavy that [

nasrantly upon the proposition that the
Congress OF the United States Is the

Is concerned. and that 1t may allow the
states 20 provide for their banks issuing
currency. or II may forbid the States
