LION To E6ceive on the sale of bonds
the legal tender and treasury notes TO
be retireR and Io1 course when they
are thus retired or redeemed in gold
they should be cancelled. '
These bonds under existing laws
could be deposited in national banks
as security for circulation up to the
face value of these or any other bonds
so deposited except bonds outstand-
ing bearing only per cent interest
and which sell in, the market at less
than par.
SUGGESTIONS AS TO LEGISLATION.
National banks should not be al
lowed to take out circulating notes Of
less denomiD alton that $40, and
when such as are now outstanding
reach the treasurer, except for re-
demption and retirement, they should
( be. Cancelled and notes of the denom-
nation of $40 and upwards issued in
their stead. Silver certificates of the
denomination of $40 and upwards
should be replaced by certificates of
denomination under $40 a
AS constant means for the main
tenance of reasonable supply OF
gold in the treasury our duties on
imports should be paid in golc, AZ
lowing all other duties to the govern
ment to be paid in any other form of
money.
l believe all the provisions I have
suggested should be embodied in our
law if we are to enjoy complete re-
instatement of a sound financial con-
GitiOn. They need not Interfere
with any currency scheme providing
for the increase of the circulating
medium through the agency of
national or state banks since they can
easily be adjusted to such a scheme.
objection has been made to the is
suance of interest bearing Obliga-
tions for the purpose of retiring the
non-interest bearing legal tender
notes. In point of fact, however, these
notes have burdened us with large
load of interest and it is still accumu-
lating. The aggregate interest on the
original bond issue, the proceeds of
which in gold bonds, constitute the
reserve for the payment of these
notes, amounted to $40, 326, $50 on
January /, 1895, and the annual
charge for interest on these bonds
and those issued for the same pur-
pose during the last year will be
so, las, 600 dating from January l, 1895.
DETERMINED TO SAVE THE CREDIT.
While the cancellation of these
notes would not relieve us from the
obligations already incurred on their
account, these figures are given by
way of suggesting that their exist
ence has not been free from interest
charges, and that the longer they are
outstanding, judging from the expert
ence of the last year, the more ex-
pensive will they become.
In conclusion | desire to frankly
confess my reluctance to issuing more
bonds in present circumstances and
with no better results than have late
ly followed that course. cannot,
however, refrain from adding to
an assurance of my anxiety to
cooperate with the present
congress in any reasonable meas
ure of relief an expression
of my determination to leave nothing
undone which furnishes a hope for
improving the situation or checking a
suspicion of our disinclination or dis
ability to meet with the strictest
honor every national obligation.

PRESIDENTIAL STRAWS FOR

ance of Sentiment 10 for Tom Reed

ley Second Choice OF
Great Many.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Jan. 29.-The
Commercial. Gazette prints two pages
of preferences for the next Republi-
can nomination for president from
representative Republicans all over
the country, and especially from
Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, West
Virginia, New York and Wash
ington city. In its summary
it says: "Ohio is for Mckinley
and Indiana for ex-President Harri.
son. New York hardly knows where
she stands. The Republicans of the
Empire state are holding off, in the
end to either dictate the nominee, or
falling in that, to drive the best bar
gain they can with the man they see
is bound to win. One New Yorker
declares himself for Ex-Governor
Foraker.
"West Virginia seems to be for the
best man, whoever he may be. One
West Virginian declares himself for
Senator'S elect Elkins, while several
Republicans of that state express a
preference for Judge Nathan Golf for
second place on the ticket Governor
Mckinley seems to be the first choice
Of the Republicans of Kentucky.
''At the national capital the pre-
ponderance of sentiment appears to be
for Tom Reed. Attention is called to
the declaration for Reed by General
John Beatty of Columbus. In the
Washington interviews it was sought
to obtain expressions from either sem
ators or representatives from every
state in the union. Mckinley seems
to be their second choice, while Har-
rison, Allison and others have quite q
respectable following"
