NATIONAL AND LOCAL CURRENCY.

From the Troy Record.
Much has been heard of late about taxi
ing the government out of the banking
business, although it is well known that
the government is not in the banking
business, as that term is commonly under
stood. 1t guarantees the value of certain
forms of currency, and that involves
plans for making the guarantee good Be
yond that it does not go into the banking
business, and 1t is difficult to see how its
responsibility can be materially reduced
by putting the currency into the hands of
the national banks. The government is
behind the bank circulation now, and II
would have to guarantee that circulation
under the proposed system, if state laws
are not to prevail and a return to wildcat
banking is to be avoided.

1t may be possible to arrange a cur
rency which will make periods of tight
money impossible, but there will be many
doubters until the plan is in actual opera
tion. And no system can be secured which
will make money easy for those who can
not give satisfactory security. The Popu-
lists and the silver advocates complain
that the volume of the currency is too
small. No matter how large or how elas-
tic it may be made no one will be able to
obtain share of it except by earning 1t
or borrowing it by the deposit of satis-
factory security. The small part which
actual money plays in the transaction of
modern business greatly lessons the need
for an "elastic'' currency. Given condi-
tions warrantng general confidence, the
lack of cash sufficient to cover any spe-
cial increase in business would not be serl-
ously felt.
The Republican position is that only
moderate changes in the present form of
currency will be necessary if the nation
| is brought back to paying basis. They
! believe that the first need Is a govern
| ment revenue equal to the outgo. That
| provided, the assaults upon the treasury
! gold reserve will be limited and unim-
| portant. The national experience since
| the resumption of specie payments abund-
! antly bears out this opinion. That policy
| should be maintained until the desired
"elastic" local currency is discovered ana
| tested.

The main difference between a strictly
government currency and a national bank
currency would be that primarily the duty
of redeeming the notes issued would rest
upon the banks. OF course these woull
have to be eXchangeable for gold on de-
mand or the yellow metal would go to
premium. But, as has been demonstrated
many times of late, national banks are
not infallible, and the government fire.
quently might be called upon to make
good its guarantee. In order to be on the
safe side it still would have to maintain
at least a moderate gold reserve. Then as
now it would be 'in the banking busi-
ness"
a vexing question is involved In the
matter of an elastic" currency. Mr.. De-
pew would have the national banks local
ly tissue currency as the peeds of the
community require" That is what every
one would like to see. The problem is,
how to arrange SO that this happy cur
rency condition can be assured. No gov
ernment has been able to devise such a
system and there are few indications that
successful scheme is to be among the
achievements of the immediate future.
There are dozens of propositions, but thcy
will not stand the test of careful eXamind-
tion.

Hog Cholera.

Every paper in the United
States ought occasionally to keer
the fact before it's readers that
burnt corn is a sure and speedy
cure for hog cholera. The best
way is to make pile of corn on
the cob, effectually scorch it
and then give the hogs free &C.
cress to it. This remedy was dis
covered by E. E. Locke, E a., at
the time his distillery was burnt
IN this county, together with
a large quantity Of store corn
which was SO much injured as
to be unfit for use, and was haul
ed out and greedy eaten by the
hogs, several Of which were dv-
ing daily. After the second dav
not single hog was lost, and
the disease entirely disappeared.
The remedy has been tried in A
number of cases since, AID never

A Lawyers Right to C y.

The interesting question has
just been brought before the
Supreme Court of Tennessee
| whether a lawyer has a right
to cry. In case growing out
of a suit of breach for promise
of marriage, the counsel for the
plaintiff, one of the most prom
lnent lawyers in the State, shed
tears in his closing appeal 10 the
jury. The counsel for the defend
ant, as soon as the case was
decided against his side, set up
the claim that these tears unduly
excited the sympathies of the
Jurymen in favor of the plaintiff
and greatly prejudiced them
against the defendant. For this
reason the appellate court was
asked to set aside the verdict and
order a new trial.
Great interest was naturally
felt by the legal profession in
the decision of the Supreme
Court. That tribunal made short
work Of the claim that a lawyer
should not cry in court. 1t held
that the conduct of counsel in
presenting CAGES to juries was a
subject that must be left largely
to the ethics of the profession
and the discretion of trial
judge. Some lawyers dealt wholly
in logic; others used rhetoric;
others employed o:1ly noise and
gesticulation; others appealed to
the sylnpathies. The court held
that tears had railways been con.
sidered legitimate argument
before juries, and that the Use
of them appeared to be zone OF
the natural rights Of counsel
which no court or constitution
could take away. In the particu>
lar case 1nd.r consideration the
occasion was pronounced "emin-
emily proper for their USE" and
the court refused to reverse the
judgement for this reason.
