An Item has been going the rounds
Of the press for weeks stating tina" fifty
three members cf the First Delaware
Regiment have registered and their
names have been transcribed to the
various registration books.'' We be.
lieve three other names of members of
the regiment have been ordered placed
upon the registration books by Judge
Spruance, they having partially quail
fed. Tlis is toSal Of fifty-six voters
in regiment of 1908 men.
We have seen no criticism, no co %
msnt, upon this oft repeated statement
and we hesitate to be the first to sug-
gest that there is any thing unusual in it
but when the law was passed authoriz-
ing the men to qualify in camp it was
supposed there were hundreds Of voters
in the regiment. Are they not there
or have they refused to qualify to vote?
If young patriots who offer their SER
vices and their lives to their COVER
ment neglect SO great a duty as the
ballot, is not the country in greater
danger Of foes at home rather than Of
foes without We have thought the
more patriotic, the better educated
and more highly cultured our citizens
the safer our institution by the pro-
lection of their ballots. When the
statesman, the soldier, and the judge
refuse to-vote, or fail to qualify where
are We at" in the language Of the

Bank Circulation.

With unblushng effrontery the gold
advocating press has asserted that the
banks offer better security on note
circulation than the Government.
In discussing this grotesque assump-
ton, attention has been called in these
columns TO the failure of the Chestnut
street bank of Philadelphia. This in
stitution was insOlvcnt in 1896. and it
was known 10 he inSolvent by those
whose official duty it was 10 look after
such matters. But the people did not
know this fact. and this insolvent bank
continued to accept deposits and to do
general banking business for a year
after it was financially rotten.
Would the notes of the Chestnut
street bank. secured by its official fur
niture. have been as safe as Govern
ment notes:
But recently, another startling case
of bank security" has come TO light.

These private institutions are so much

1t is 10 be hoped that the gold press
will quote frequently the history of the
financial management of the Chestnut
Street Bank of Philadelphia and the
Chemical Bank of New York. 1t will
greatly strengthen their arguments for
a bank circulation.
