Tho Day We Celebrate.

The origin Of our Thanksgiving day
comes very close to the landing of the
pilgrims. The frat harvest, in 1921.
was celebrated with homely feast and
Thanksgiving, for which there was good
warrant in "the feast OF ingathering''
under the Mosaic dispensation. Obser-
vance of the day grew with the growth
Of New England.
In time the rest of the country saw
that it was good thing to do, until at
last Thanksgiving day became a nation
al institution. So it should be. We
have had our ups and downs in this
country. but we have had so much Of
good that at least once year We should
be glad as people to give thanks for
it all.

It is very desirable that no tolls stand
in the way of free communication be-

abolish tolls is the question, The city
will not buy the bridges or either OF
them at this time, nor is it likely to do
so in the near future. The fNrELIIaEN-

MEHR LIGHT.
The Council Said, Let There
 Be More Light.
A Street Illuminating System o1 Forty-four Arc Lamps
 Is Ordered.

By the first of January Phoenix, vii
 be the best lighted city in the dark o the moon, on the Pacific coast. It may not be so we'll lighted that one can pick up pin anywhere on the streets but one will be able to find his way along any public thorough fare with as great facility as at noon day. The city coun. cil last night accepted a proposal of the Phoenix Light and Fuel company tc furnish A arc lights for period of two years at the rate of $7.5O each month. The contract will include the twelve lights now in use so that the present volume of light will be increased by 32 arcs.
 The work of putting up the new lights will be begun on the arrival of the ma. terial part of which has been ordered and is on the way.
 The council spent some time locating the additional lamps and prepared a plat which may perhaps be slightly, but not materially changed.
 Washington street will naturally be. as it is now the most thoroughly lighted. The lamps will be placed as far east as Seventh street and west to the limits. Near's addition, on Washington, will be lighted at Ninth and Eleventh avenues.
 The plan of location provides gener- ally that off of Washington street there shall be lamp at alternate street cross- ings. There will be slight variations of the plan. In localities more thickly settled there will be more lamps, while in others not closely built upon there will be fewer. Notably that portion of the city lying two blocks east or west of Center street will be almost solidly lighted.
 The council has made no move which gives so general satisfaction as this. It involves heavy expenditure, but it is one which is likely to produce the most direct results. Aside from the con- venience which 1t will afford residents. the illumination will be in full force and effect at time of the year when the greatest number of visitors will be in the city and when the legislature is in session. So it will be also a paving advertisement. The terms of the con tract are also exceedingly advantageous; the rate is said to be much lower than is paid by any other city on the coast.
Arizona republican., 1894-12-04
State Banks.

Another very important feature of 1 this plan is the exemption of state banks from taxation by the United States In cases where 1t Is shown to the satisfaction of the secretary of the treasury and controller of the currency by banks claiming such exemption, that they have not had outstanding their circulation notes exceeding seventy i've per cent of their paid up and unim- paired capital, that their stockholders are individually liable to redemption of their circulating notes to the full amount of their owner ship of stock, that the liability of said banks upon their circulating notes constituli7 z under their state law first lien upon their assets, that such banks have kept and maintained guarantee fund in United States legal tender notes equal to thirty per cent of their outstanding circulating notes and that such banks have promptly redeemed their circulat- ing notes when presented at their principal or branch offices. It is quite likely that this scheme may be usefully amended in some of it's details but am satisfied that it furnishes a basis for a very great improvement in our present banking system and currency system.
 II conclude this communication fully appreciating that the responsibility for all legislation affecting the people of the United States rests upon their rep resentatives in congress, and assuring them that whether in accordance with recommendations 1 have made or not. l shall be glad to cooperate in perfect ing any legislation that can add to the prosperity and welfare of our country"
Arizona republican., 1894-12-04

be resorted to for replenishing such re- demption fund when impaired. These obligations when redeemed in gold are not cancelled, but are reissued and may do duty many times by way of drawing gold from the treasury. Thus we have an endless chain of operations con. stantly depicting the treasury of gold and never find rest; as if this was not bad enough we have held by statutory declaration that it is the policy of the government to maintain the parity be- tween gold and silver and the force and momentum of this exhausting process has added largely to currency obliga- tions claiming this peculiar gold re- dem ption. It is Dalpa ply plain that the only way under the present conditions by which this reserve dangerously de- pleted can be replenished is through the issue and sale of bonds of the goy- ernment for gold, and yet congress has not only so far declined to authorize the issue of bonds best suited to this pur- pose, but there seems a disposition in some quarters to deny both the neces- sity and power for the issue of bonds at all.
 II cannot for moment believe that any of our citizens are willing the gov ernment should default in its pecuniary obligations, or that it's financial opera tons should be reduced to 8 silver basis. At any rate I don't feel that my duty was done if 1 omitted any effort I could take to avert such a calamity.
Arizona republican., 1894-12-04

such impairment to be made good by a pro rata assessment among other banks, their contributions constituting a first lien upon the as sets of the failed bank in favor of the contri outing banks. Az further security it is contemplated that the existing provision fixing the indi- vidual ability of stockholders is to be retained, and the banks indebtedness on account of it's circulating notes IS to be made first lien on all it's assets. It further provides that there shall be no national bank notes issued of less de- than ten dollars.
