PLENTITUDE OF GREENBACKs.
Why the Banks Pay Them Out as
Fast as Possible

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2-It is claimed in
congressional circles that one. of the reasons
for the appearance of greenbacks in large
amounts is the act Of August 10, 1894 which
is as follows:
That circulating notes OF national banking
associations and United States legal tender
notes and certificates OF the United States
payable on demand and circulating or intend
ed 10 circulate as currency and gold silver
or other coin, shall be subject to taxation as
money on hand or on deposit under the laws
OF any state or territory: Provided, that any
such taxation shall be exercised in the same
manner and at the same rate that any such
state or territory shall tax money or currency
circulating as money within its Jurisdiction
Section 2. That the provisions of this act
snail not be deemed held to the change
or existing laws In respect of the taxation of
natlonal banking associations"
1t Is said by several persons who have In
terested themselves in the currency question.
that prior to this act the reserves in many
banks were held in greenbacks instead of
gold, because they were non taxable, but as
soon as this law became operative in the
several states that gold was preferred as
reserves, and the greenbacks, instead of being
boarded by money lenders and banks. were
paid out as fast as they came in.

MINNESOTA LANDS.
Decisions In Important Cases Elk

WASHINGTON, JAN 1.-The land de-
partment officials are making great
efforts to get up even with the work in
the railroad division by the 1st of next
February. The Northern Pacific have
three men here from st. Paul working
on the lists that have been declared
forfeited, and for which other selections
may be taken. 1t indicates that the
company will probably accept the de-
cision of Secretary Smith holding that
the old grant of 1852 is void and that
the company has no land coming east
or Superior City, Wis. There are 700
land contests pending from Minnesota
AT this time the department is within
thirty days of being up in the swamp
land divisions. Minnesota had been
beaten out of many valuable tracts of
land, which really come within the
meaning of the swamp land act but the
oVer-Zealous desire on the part of the
spectators may react and result in for
1eiting large amount of valuable land
TO the state. The section so case. which
comes up next month, is regarded as n
test case. If it is held that a part of
that valuable tract was swamp land
originally, ii will affect the Rockefeller
and the Minnesota Mining company's
interests to great extent. The hear
ing before Judge LamoreauX will be one
or the most important ever conducted
here

will promptly find and furnish the gold with
which to pay for them. The whole country
would respond with like alacrity. 1t would
not require week; it would hardly require
a day to sell $50, 0O0 900 of bonds to the people
at a fair price. Why sell them to syndicate
at an unfair price, and with a secrecy which
eXcites suspicion and dstrust? Why should

NEW DAIRY HALL.
Experimental Farm Has u New and
Popular Feature.

The spacious new dairy hall at the
experimental station was duly opened
yesterday by Prof. J. L. Hacker, of
the dairy husbandry department,
whose class of 100 cheesemakers took
its initial lesson in the manufacture
of the dairy product.
In view of the magnitude of the
cheesemaking industry in Minnesota
the experimental station authorities
are determined that the practical as
sistance placed in the reach of those
engaged in cheese manufacture snail
be the very best, and for that purpose
have given Mr. Hacker a number
of capable assistants. Since the inau-
guration of the station classes there
has always been some attention paid
to this branch of instruction, but
heretofore the quarters have been linn
tied and the classes small. The class
which began yesterday is the largest
in the history of the station in this
department, and much good practical
work is mapped out for the year.
