CHAIRMAN WILSON, of the ways and
means committee, is confident that in a
very few months the revenues VIII be
sufficient to meet the expenditures of the
government under the operations of ex-
isting laws; but he is doubtful if it will
stay the drain of gold from this country
unless the government paper is retired,
and he favors the issue of long term
low rate bonds to meet that emerger cy.
Opinion is crystalizing that this is the
only thing to be done. A popular loan
meets with much favor, whereby the
postmasters can be made agents for the
sale of government notes, in denomin-
ations from SO upward, bearing per
cent interest. This measure, il is claimed
will bring out the gold from the stock
ing reservoirs and savings banks. OF
the $50, 600, 600 and over of gold drawn
from the treasury the last two months,
one half has gone into the banks or been
stored away by individuals in safe de
posit companies and elsewhere. The
other half has been exported. There is
about s460, 900, 600 gold in the country.

being so than it is doing at present
While it is bawling through its organs
that the recent defeat of the Democracy
