BANKERS WISH
CREDIT NOTES
Atlanta Plan for Currency Reform In
dorsed BY Financiers.
J. S. CARR FOR FREE SILVER
He Tells His Fellow Bankers the Gold
Standard Will Not Do.
Convention Adopted the Resolutions
Offered by Mr.. DeSaussure as a
So1ution Of the Question.

One more plan of currency reform was
formulated Wednesday and stamped with
the approval OF the convention of bankers.
1t was Il convention of southern bankers
called by the Atlanta clearing house. The
plan might be called the southern plan, but
while it contemplates such legislation as
will especially help the western and south
ern states it is also broad in scope and
there is nothing contemplated under it
which would be burdensome to the bank
ers Of the north and east.
The convention small in attendance
but there We're gentlemen present of ma
tional reputation They agreed all OF
them, that something ought to be done to
change the financial laws so that first of
ell the southern states can have an elastic
currency.
No one disputed the proposition that
there ought to be more currency in circula-
ton in the south ana that the laws should
be framed that ii bankers do not wish to
issue more than they have they need not do
it. Another idea which figured prominently
was that banks should be allowed to loan
money on cotton, pig iron and other COM
modites.
The convention was Il single standard
body, hut there was one delegate who came
out "bald-headod ana bare-footed" as he
Expressed it for free silver THIS was Mr..
j S Carr of North Carolina. He did not
take any part i'll the discussion until 10
was invited-alter the Plan had been adopt
Ell. While he was speaking he had the at
teution of his hearers ana he gave them
some good natured shots which they ac
cepted in the same spirit.
There was no debate on the resolutions
reported by the committee and they were
adopted by unanimous vote. in irief they
call on the government to 90 OUT OF the
banking business. The resolutions con
template an increase in the amount of gold
and silver IN circulation with batter bauk-
ing facilities for smlli towns, all banks to
be on the same footing under governmental
control.
In order TO get q uniform baulling system.
It is proposed that the business men Of
every state should meet and agree upon
financial and banking system which VIII
bring prosperity and happiness to the ma
ton. To secure this, it is suggested that
banks with a capital Of $4,000 and over be
allowed to issue notes to circulate as money
On commercial assets.

San Francisco Learns Why Seattle
Has Taken the Lead.
THE LESSON FOR ASTORIA
Let Eastern People KuOw We Have Good
Outiittiaq foint aad narbor, With
Equal Freight Rates,

In two column article, under m'
scare head SEATTLE Must Be Checked
N. san Francisco Cali calls upon th'
people OF the Bay City to stand by tnei'
oO,ors as patriotic citirens and head on
m. prestige already established by Sc
attic as the port OF shipment and supply
oepot for Alaska and the Yukon mines
The article quotes F. W. Dohrmann OF
N. remedy. as follows: san Francisct
a. now confronted with a war to th'
Nn,fe for the Alaska trade. The Mer
chants Association and other CONNER
c,al bodies realize that Seattle is prae
tcany the only city known In the east a'
an outftting point. Unless the impr's
sion is corrected most of the hundred
thousand or more persons who so to th'
Yukon basin in the spring will travel by
way OF Seattle and buy thesr supplies
there. To counteract the wrong impress
sion regarding the facilities Of San Fran
cisco, the Merchants Association and
other commercial organizations have de-
cided to organic comparatively and bend
all their energies to advertising the re-
sources of the state and city"
F. H. Grifiths. OF Philadelphia. visit
ing In San Francsco. says in the same
article: I'VE never hear Of San Fran
cisco in the east. Seattle is the only
point the outhtter ever hears Of. and
this is because the little city is adver-
tised all over the United States while
San Francisco ds unadvertised and prac-
sfcally unknown. Your merchants seem
TO go on in the same old conservative
way. l think 1 shall have TO go to S.
attic to engage in the Yukon outfitting
trade. in spite of the fact that San Fran
cisco is the metropolis and the natural
outhtting point"
The Call goes on to suggest that the
organization of merchants open a large
store room whsre there shall be exhibit
ed the products Of California manufac-
ture and miners supplies and where the
prospector can sse samples Of and get
prices on. any thing he may want II
also suggests that systematic methods
be employed in advertising San Francisco
in the east and calls attention to the
fact that transcontinental freight rates
on goods produced east used by the min
ers are the same to Frisco as to Seattle.
Portland and Astoria.
What is the lesson in an of this for
Astoria? Possessing equal freight rates
from the east, with line of o. r. & n.
steamers operating direct from here to
Alaska, with the manufacture Of special
miners outfits suitable for the Yukon,
with the best harbor on the Pacific
coast, reached by several transcontinen-
tai roads on short mileage, why is As
toria, like Frisco. left behind in the Yu-
kon race? The answer is simple. She

Who in Astoria will put up a hundr d
dollar bill to let the people in the east
know that this is as good an outftting
point as Seattle or Frisco?
