of the situation, that the government
and people of our country are directly re.

are committed in the name of warfare,
they are right. | believe that our share
of responsibility for all this blood guilt
ness is heavy one. We haye an

The Question of Branch Banks.

If small national banks are to be en-
couraged in the more sparsely settled
portions Of the country, the question
arises whether they should be purely
local organizations or branches of the
great metropolitan banks. The old Unit
ed States bank had branches which, by
virtue of their connection with large
central institution, had some advan-
tages over the local banks with which
they competed, but were in more than
one instance the objects of adverse state
legislation. This spirit of local hostility
to bank located in another city, and
perhaps another state, left memories
which still survive and which account
in part for the opposition to branch
banks.
But the experience of England and
Scotland, Canada and Australia, is
strongly and uniformly in favor of large
central banks with many branches The
banks of Canada are able to maintain a
singular uniformity in the rates of in
terest in the great commercial centers
and in the remote agricultural regions
because the banks of Montreal and To-
ronto have their branches in Manitoba
and the Pacific region and can transfer
the surplus capital of one locality to
meet the deficiency in another as it can
not be done by wholly independent
banks. The conditions in Canada are
very much like those Of the United
States, and the success of the Canadian
banks III doing what we recognize the
Importance of having done is entitled to
great weight IN our considerations. In
Scotland it is well known that the
branch system has greatly favored those
agricultural interests which in our own
country are so much in need of financial
accommodation.
The preponderance of financial testi-
mony is decidedly in favor of the branch
system, most Of the opposition to which
comes, or would come, from local finan-
cial interests, jealous of strong outside
competition. There is feeling of dis
trust of all banks which is born of ig-
norance. It increases rapidly with the
increase of banks capital and the ex-
tension Of its operations. which are sup
posed to prove the bank to be a monop-

No government can maintain at one
time more than one standard of value,
any more than it can maintain more
than one standard of weight, or more
than one standard of measure, or more
than one standard Of length. If there
be two or more standards of different
value, the standard of lower value will
in practice become the only standard.
If one goes into the market. the law
being that yard shall be either two
feet or three feet in length, and buys
carpets by the yard at fixed price,
there will be delivered to him carpets
measured in yards of two feet in length.
If he buy coal by the ton, the law being
that ton shall be either 1900 or 2, 240
pounds, he will receive tons of 1000
pounds each. If he buy potatoes by the
bushel, the law being that a bushel
shall contain either two pecks or four
pecks, there will be delivered to him
bushels of two pecks each.
On the same principle, if the law be
that dollar is either gold coin, with
"a bullion value equal to its face value,
or silver coin, with bullion value Of
only half its face value, and not con-
vertible at par into gold coin, the sell
ers of the carpets, the coal and the pota-
toes will be paid i'll dollars of the lesser
value.
There never has been and there never
can be in any country at any time BIZ
metallic standard, and the attempt to
create double standard has never pro-
duced anything better than an alter
mating standard, with the inevitable
consequences of injustice with reference
TO past contracts and uncertainty with
reference TO future contracts.
Indeed, Senator Jones admits in the
report of the silver commission of 1876
that whenever under the double stand
ard there is variance between the lie.
gal and market relations of the metals
the standard would be practically based
on one metal, and it the cheaper and
more available one. The financial his
tory of the United States and of France
furnish conclusive evidence of the accu-
racy of the senator's view on this point.

The Transcript intimn ted that tn

The Transcript intimnted that the
Northern Pacific would he compelled
to provide better local accOmm oda-
tiOns if it did not have q monopoly
of the shipping business here, and no
one doubts it. That is why would
be OF great advantage to have an
other railroad. When other rail-
roads consider it would pay to build
to Little Falls they will doubtless
do so. The Herald made the remark
of the Transcript the basis for say
ing that there were other mononolis
in Little Falls, and there doubtless
are. but the city does not necessarily
suffer from them. There is no bust
ness in Little Falls which has &
monopoly that is such for any otter
reason than another enterprise ofth':
same kind ia not inviting to capital.
There is no legal monopoly In the
city except the postofice-the other
monopolies cdn be "broken" any
time labor and capitol is invested to
the needed extent. When the size OF
the city warrants it, we may expect
other railroads, az well as an in
creased number OF enterprises In all
lines.

L. Van Hecke, who has just re-
turned from a stay Of several III nths
in Arizona, brought with him several
specimens OF the poisonous reptiles
that infest that locality: He had a
rattlesnake, scorpion, ceatipede,
tarantula and swift and gave them
all to DR.. Nero. People there fear
ratt]esnakes more than any of the
Others named, but as nearly every
one who encounters RATHER will
generally succeed in killing it they
are becoming scarce. Several OF the
other reptiles which are considered
deadly poison by.pe ople OF the North,
are not considered dangerous by the
residents Of the locality, and simple
remedies are said to destroy the
effects of their venom on the human
system. Mr.. Van Hecke says the
climate OF Arizona is delightful, but
the social advantages are very poor.
The locality in which he has been is
still a frontier, and like all frontier
mining localities it is immoral to a
degree that is simply shocking to a
man like Van, who had never before
been on the frontier. He prefers
Minnesota. but his business interests

G.. S. Benson, of Buchanan, was in
the city Saturday, procuring a new
bond, as per or;:er Of Judge Bax ter,
for his appearance at the next term
OF the district court to answer the
charge OF grand larceny against him.
The charge Of grand larceny against
Benson was on account of his having
disposed of quantity of wheat and
Come other property which the
sheriff had levied upon last fall to
satisfy a Judgment against him.
The Judgment is now about double
the amount it originally was by
reason Of costs being attached, and
the sheriff a few days ago levied up
on Il part of Benson's crop Of wheat
this season. Benson gave a bill OF
sale of the wheat to q neighbOr and
the officer garnisheed the person to
whom the bill Of sale was given.
When he found he could not hold the
wheat under the bill of sale he began
action for it's recovery claiming it as
exempt as feed for his stock. He has
also brought suit against the sheriff
for $1,000 damages. 1t is very prob
ably that before Benson gets through
with this case he will have to pay
the Judgment and will also be out
many times the amount of the judy
ment in court costs and attorneys
fees, and possibly convicted of some
criminal transaction in connection
with it,
