York, Pa, Building Loan Associa-
ton Fails

Judge Bittenger has appointed the Security
Title and Trust Company receiver for the
York Mutual Building and Loan Association
and placed the bond at 100000. The York
Mutual is one of the Oldest building and loan
associations in York. 1t has issued $500
shares of stock, on which slls,OO0 has been
paid. The association has also borrowed
$4,000. The assets are SAB, 600 on stock
loans, $S4, 900 interest and dues in arrears
and $4,000 insurance. If the courts decide
that the borrowers are not liable for their
share of the losses of the association, the divi
dend for the persons who have paid in S11S,-
900 will be very small. This is the second
York building association that has failed in
January. The secretary is George Fisher, a
brother-in-law of ex-Judge Latimer Mr.
Fisher has applied to State Superintendent
Gilkeson for a receiver for the association.

FrOm the ANNAPOLIS RECORD.
The determination of Speaker Mudd, so
alleged, not to appoint one A. P. A. to of
fee is conclusion that viii be approved by
every liberal-minded and patriotic citizen.
The principle that, in this enlightened age and
this land Of liberty, a man must be ostracised
from public favor because he happens to be-
long to this or that religious denomination is
one that should be stamped out by the iron
heel of opposition Of every true, American
citizen. Speaker Mudd has taken the right
method and proposes to give blow for blow.
1t is to be hoped that the Democratic Senate
will have the same courage and, if Governor
Lowndes should send any of these people to
the Senate for confirmation, it is devoutly to
be wished that the Senate will reject them.
May Democratic Senate have the same
courage that Republican Speaker has

If the Republicans of Maryland continue
violating their promises, making unfit APP
pointments, wrangling and intriguing, there
will be well nigh unanimous call for the
Democratic party to come back and take
charge of affairs, The Reform League that
helped the Allegany ring in the late election,
has been snubbed; civil service has been
killed; there will be no just assessment law,
and not one promise will be carried out, so
far as present indications show.

money means more dollars for the

the rich man accumulates more money
while the laboring millions become
poorer each year. Under the sound
money policy the farmers produce has

laboring man has to do more work To

ruptcy Those who are now doing
business on falling market and who
are now ont Of debt, Will become in

tai OF each bank in the notes OF the
corporations. The seeood issue. or the
National bank notes. are secured by
nothing whatever, section ii expressly
providing that the United States shal!
not be responsible for their redemption.
and. while IT is provided that these notes
shall be redeemnble in coin, there ls
now here ary provision requiring the
bank TO keep reserve OF coin for that
purpose. The last named notes are
therefore wholly dependent upon tho
responsibility of the corporation for
their value and no check or require.
ment is provided whereby stated
fund shall lie kept for redemption pur-
poses.
This constitutes a more reckless aDd
dangerous wildcat cheme than was in
vogue in the earlier days of unreliable
and worthless bank currency.
REDEMPTION IMPOSSIBLE.
When We apply the situation OF the
country as it now is to the provisions OF
this bill, We shall soon discover that
there will be no gold with which to re-
deem the bank notes authorized to be
issued. 1t is provided that 9per cent
in outstanding banks and Is per cent in
reserve cities shall be kept in gold coin
for the payment of depoeitors, and any
one will say that this is not too much
for safety in addition to the silver re
qnired. Now, if we apply this rule Of
reserve to all banks We have a fairly
safe guide for their government.
There is on deposits in the banks Of
this country five billion three hundred
million dollars. About, or something
more than half Of these deposits are left
in dozen or so Of the large cities which
would come under the 25 per cent pro
vision. 1t would follow then that au
average Of l2 per cent OF all these de-
posts should be held, by the banks, in
gold coin. This would require six
hundred and thirty-six million dollars
to cover the requirement, which is
largely more gold than the most vision.
ary gold enthusiast claims there is in
the country. The latest report Of the
Comptroller Of the Treasury which we
have seen, states the total amount OF
| gold in all the banks to be one hundred
and twenty seven million dollars. II
! the banks can now control but this
amount where wonld tley bc likely to
procure the five hundred millions addi
tional gold required to be kept on ac
count of the payment OF depositore? II
this fund falls SO far short what a sOrry
plight these banks would lie in when
seeking safe gold reserve for the re.
demption OF two billion or more Of cir
cuating notes
As the EAGLE has said many timeE
before, in effect, a gold standard means
either a wildcat banking scheme or
ruinous reduction OF the present vol
ume Of the country's business rs now
represented by the bank deposits.
