Hoods Pills easy to to buy easy to take

thought our existing evil is the lack of
revenue to defray the expenses of the
government, and that the first remedy is
revision Of the tariff law which will
create surplus in the treasury above
what is required for the current expen-
ses of the government. Before that is
done, if it is necessary to replenish the
treasury with gold, the practical method
would be through the syndicate that
agrees to bring in foreign gold from the
purchase of our bonds. He had not the
slightest faith in a popular loan bringing
gold into the treasury. He considered
these were the four remedies: First, the
revision of the tariff to create q suffi-
cient revenue; second, a long term of
years bond, say for one hundred years, at
three per cent, exohangeable for the
outstanding greenbaoks; third, allow Ma
tional banks to issue circulation equal
to the par value of any class of govern
ment bonds; fourth, limit the coinage of
silver sufficiently to prevent values being
placed on silver instead Of gold basis.
Mr.. Elias Thomas, vice president of, the
Canal National bank, said he had been
out of town. and had nothing to say at
this time on the subject other than that
his bank had done mourning in regard to
the loan.
Mr.. William Moulton, president of the
Cumberland National bank, said that his
bank had done nothing about the loan.
He didn't think it won Id pay the bank
to go to large cities and borrow money at
a high rate of interest to buy bonds with,
that paid a much less rate. He thought
it possible that a savings bank might
have funds on hand with which to invest
in the bonds.

The annual installation of the officers
of Shepley Camp, No. 4, S. of ", oc-
CURED last evening at the close of the
business session of the camp.
The ceremony of installation was per-
formed by Division Chaplain Rev. Geo.
E. Leighton of Skowhegan, and it was
most oreditably executed.
The following were the officers in
stalled:
Captain-Arthur NJ. Soule.
First Lieutenant-Charles S. Berry,
Second Lieutenent-Mellen L. Stickney,
Jr
Cap Council-Waldo H. Perry, Meldon

Camp Guard-R. e. Pu1ington.
Picket Guard-Ernest Steele.
After the installation service the tables
were spread and the compay seated to
partake OF the refreshments provided.
Capt Soule called the assembly to or
der and requested Comrade Winslow OF
Bosworth Post to offer prayer.
After the supper was we'll under way,
Capt. Soule introduced Department
Commander W. H. Green, who responded
in most happy manner, saying that it
was pleasure for him to extend the
greetings of the comrades of Maine, and
hoped that as future time should come
that Shepley Camp would prove itself
equal to any and every occasion.
He reminded the boys that during the
dark days of the Rebellion that the boys
who went to the front, many of the a.
least were no older than most of the bows
of this camp and were designated as the
pony section, and could always be de-
pended on
Senior Vice Commander Frederick
Winslow of Bosworth Post was next in
troduced in the usual pleasing manner,
saying that Bosworth Post was proud
of Shepley Camp and took just pride
in it's progress. He also referred yery
fttingly to the work of the order in the
future and exhorted all the embers tc
remain firm to the principles of theil
organic ations.

THE NEW BOND ISSUE.
Portland Bankers Have Taken No Ac.
tiOn Yet.

What Bank Men Think of the Loan-BeIief
That the Banks Should be Allowed Cir
culation to the Par Value of Their
Bonds.
A representative of the PRESS called
upon the leading bank men yesterday af-
ternoon to inquire as to whether the
Portland banks had taken any action in
regard to the new government bond issue,
to the amount of one hundred million
dollars, and as to their opinion in regard
to the loan.
Gov. Robbie of the irst National bank
h ad gone to Gorham. Cashier Wengren
said the bond matter had not been
brought up in his bank. He thought
the feeling among fnanoiers was that if
the ban ks could have the benefit of the
par value of the bonds. in their oiroula-
ton, they would be much more likely to
invest in them than under the presen5
conditions
President Small of the Casco bank,
said his bank had as yet done nothing.
To buy the bonds it is necessary to have
the gold. and very little gold is held by
Portland banks. The comptroller of the
treasury, in his report, gives the whole
amount of gold. silver, and silver certiff-
Gates held by the Portland banks, as fol-

boys that belonged to the pony section
OF the regiment. and during his remarks
reminded the Major that the pony section
were most always to be depended upon,
especially il there was any forging to be
done. He closed his remarks by wishing
the camp success and pledging the sup
port of Thatcher Post to the interests Of
the camp.
Adjutant A. NJ. Sawyer Of the Depart
ment of Maine, g. A. r., was introduced
as one that was by no means a stranger
at Shspley Camp headquarters, and in
response to his Introduction he spoke yer
ittingly upon the great Importance of
the members of the camp laboring to ex-
tend its influence and usefulness.
Rev. George G. Leighton, the installing
officer. spoke very fittingly and thanked
the camp for the entertainment he had
received, and wished for the camp album
dant success during the present year. At
the close Of the refreshments the bur-
