amount in the aggregate to a sum that
could be invested to their advantage.
1t would tend to cultivate thrift in q
large class, realizing the advantage OF
depOsiting with the government in
stead of wastefully and uSelessly eN-
pending, it would tend to better rela-
tionship; bring into closer relationship
the government and it's citizens and
develop practical and enduring patriot
ism. This growth of patriotic senti-
ment and good citizenship constitutes
a powerful appeal to the statesman
ship to make way for these benef-
cent consequences.
The proposition is an accomplished
fact in nearly every country in Europe
in the British dependencies of both
hemisphereS and even in Hawaii. In
Great Britain 100000 depositors have
upward of $3.50, 10000 in savings accu-
mulated during thirty-five years. and
in ten years fewer than 10000 Hawaiian
depOsitOrs saved nearly $1,000 600. De-
positOrs in Canada in twenty years ex-
ceeded so, 600, 900. These vast accumu-
latiOns have been made with the least
possible loss to the governments which
guarantee their repayment, and with q
minimum OF cost to the millions of de-
posters More than a thousand postal
savings accounts in European Offices
are held ny minors and over tWo-thirds
by the most humble callings It is es-
Sent1aIIy the bank of this class. Postal
savings would not conflict with savings
banks, but would encourage savings
rather than accommodations. The con-
y
ings repositories would soon afford in
definitely more facility for re-
ceiving interest deposits than the inter
est paying banks do now. The most
aggressive opponents are among the
private Institutions engaged in some
what similar enterprises. though assoc
Citations of the larger cities recognize
in 1t valuable feeder to the financial
currents of the country. Security and
not the rate of interest is the primary
and essential condition of such sys-
tenn; and bonds of states, counties and
municipalities and real estate furnish
an illimitable field"
Comparing other countries the post
master general says nearly every couu.
try permits its most popular coin as tina
medium of deposit, varying from )
cents in India to 1 cent in Canada
Maximum deposits vary from S285 in
France to 81. 435 in New Zealand. De-
posts over the amount are non-interest
bearing and in several countries the
surplus is by law invested in national
bonds. Both deposits and accounts
are usually small France made a
profit in 1895 of $4,000 in handling
2.500000 accounts, aggregating $4,000
900, after paying per cent interest.
Great Britain earned a surplus of $50
GOO, after paying 21s per cert interest on
S4S3 100000, made UP of 6,500.0O0 ac-
counts The average commits paid
to postmasters is 1 cent per deposit.

Undertaking.

Hawaiian annexation treaty.
The senator, in discussing the sub

made public, stated that the more he
studied the other side the more he be
came satisfied that it would be a very
dangerous undertaking for the United
States.
While he did not say that he would
vote against the treaty, the senator
intimated quite forcibly that the Uni
ted States had better keep hands off.
