THE SCOTCH BANKING SYSTEM.

A recent celebration by the Bank
Of Scotland Of its two hundredth an
niversary calls attention to the ad-
mirable system of banking which
that institution represents. This is
not a matter of theory, but of ex-
perience. a system which has met
satisfactorily every demand of trade
and finance for so long a period of
time can rest upon its merits. The
Scotch banks carry some $500, 900, 900
of loans and discounts, with a re-
serve of only about $20, 000, 900 of gold.
There are but ten great banks in the
country, but they operate nearly one
thousand branches The branch
banks, in their business, pay out
the notes Of the central institution,
which are redeemable at its office.
The question Of redemption, there
fore, does not present itself to the
noteholder's mind. He is just as GER
tain that the bank note which he
receives will be honored as a man is
in this country who accepts a
legal tender note. The branch banks
need pay little attention to their re-
serves, since they cannot be called
on to redeem the notes which they
use. This frees every local banking
institution from the necessity of
watching the amount of it's reserves.
as related to the amount of notes
Which 1t puts out. Only the great
central institutions have to look out
for their solvency. They are so forti-
fed in their business that nothing
short of a universal panic could
shake them.
The Impressive fact in this connec-
ton is that, with all the ups and
downs of the finances of Great Brit
| ain, and with all the financial re-
vulsions that have disturbed the
British metropolis, there have been
| but two bank failures in Scotland in
! hundred years. Even in these in
stances the noteholders were SO am
| ply protected that they lost nothing.
| 1t is not possible, probably, to adopt
i the Scotch system in this country.
Yet the fact that a method prac-
tically identical with it operates with
equal satisfaction in every commun-
| ity in the Dominion Of Canada, and
carried them without a panic or a
tremor through the disastrous sum
mer of 1893, when banks in the Unit
ed States We're going to the wall, in
dicates pretty clearly that there is
principle behind it which we can
well afford to study. A system which
secures universal solvency, at the
same time that it accommodates ev-
cry legitimate demand for credit,
