POSTAL SAVINGS BANKs.-Under
our present financial system the
money drifts northward and re-
mains there. | have seen it stated
that the banks of New York have
on deposit 81, 100000 600; millions
more than they did sixteen months
ago. Now, if we had United States
Postal Savings banks only the sur
plus deposit of money therein could
be sent to points where needed and
loaned to the people at low rate
of interest. In this way the money
could be kept evenly distributed.
Postal Savings banks as a means for
preventing the unnecessary accu-
mutation of money at money Gen.
tiers appear to have generally es-
capped the attention of the advocates
of the said banks. The better ele-
ment of the Republican party, such
rs Lincoln, Secretary of State
Chase and Thad Stephens, were
bitterly opposed to the insertion Of
the exception clause on the green
backs which has revolutionized our
financial system in the interest of
the rich against the poor. The
working CLASSES of this country
aggregate IS per cent. of the voting
people; consequently if they would
cast aside party prejudice and
unite on a proper basis they could
control legislation in their favor,
which would be in the interest of
justice. This system is advocated
by Populists in justice to the poor.
Now. if it be right in theory have
the manhood to help get it into
law by voting as you pray and
practicing what you preach.
