TbE CURRENCY BILL.

The currency bill which had passed
both houses OF congress was signed BY
President Mckinley Wednesday, and be-
came a law. Our free silver friends who
talk OF the ''erime of 49, as the elandes-
tine demonstration of silver can make
no charge of anything clsndestine about
the act Of 1900, as IL plainly and unequiv-
ocally makes the gold dollar the stand
ard OF value, and requires the secretary
of the treasury TO maintain all forms OF
currency at parity with that standard.
The law provides redemption fund
Of $50, 0O0,OO in gold coin and bullion
from the cash balance in the treasury, 20
be used solely for the redemption OF
United States notes and treasury notes,
and those notes so redeemed may be ex-
changed for gold in the general fund or
with the public so that the redemption
fund il kept at $50, 900, 900. The "end-
less chain" is broken BY prohibiting the
issue of notes 80 redeemed TO meet any
deficiencies in the current revenues.
The ultimate retirement Of all treas
ury notes issued in payment for silver
bullion under the sherman act is also
provided for. As fast as that bullion Is
coined into silver dollars treasury notes
are 70 be retired and replaced with silver
certificates. A larger use OF silver cer-
ticates Is provided for, and the secretary
Ia empowered 70 coin subsidiary silver
coins up to limit of el00, O00,O 900.
National banks are permitted under
the law 10 issue circulation up 70 an
amount equal to their capital; taxation
on circulation based on the new bonds
"a new issue bearing 2 per cent? viii be
only half OF per cent, the tax on eircu-
lation based on the old bonds viii be
per cent, as at present. The Law per-
mits banks with e25 900 capital to be or
gauized 10 places Of 5000 inhabitants or
less, the minimum capital heretofore
having been 10000. II also permits
banks to issue circulation on all classes
of bonds deposited up to the par value
of the bonds instead Of 90 per cent OF
their face, a. heretofore. IL 10 thought
that one result Of the bill will be an i'm
mediate Increase Of national bank circu-
latiou, estimated BY Secretary Gage at
- oo0, 900.
