"A Colossal Government Favor

the New York World directs atten-
tion to s'a colossal government favor"
which has been conferred upon New
York bank by the secretary of the
treasury. The New York World is a
gold organ and cannot be accused gem
orally of prejudice against the pecul-
lar policies adopted by the administra-
ton. But there are some things that
even gold organ cannot endure. The
World says: "The National City bank
is the most powerful financial institu-
tion in the country. 1t has the largest
capital stock, increased on December
3rd from $1,000 OOto 10000, 900. 1t has
the largest deposits an average of
more than S100,000,000. Ithas the most
imposing directory, including William
Rockefeller. representing the Standard
Oil interests; II. Walter Webb and
William Douglas Sloane, representing
the Vanderbilt interests: Robert Ba-
con OF j. Pierpont Morgan &Co.:H. o.
Hayemeyer of the sugar trust; Jacob
I'll. Schiff, representing such vast in
terests as those back of the great I'm
ion Pacific syndicate; John A. Mccall
of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany. 1t is bank of railway kings
and trust barons and all manner of
great interests that have direct con-
Germ in national financial and com
mercial legislation. The secretary of
the treasury, Mr.. Gage, has selected
this bank as the beneficiary of colos-
al financial favor. He has ordered
that the internal revenue receipts of
the government shall be paid over to
1T to use or distribute. These receipts
amount to close upon $l,000,O00 each
Weekday--upward of $250,000,000 a
year. For this favor the National City
bank will pay not one single penny to
the government. Out of this favor it
will make enormous sums, for it will
put money out at interest. And inter-
est in Wall street rangas from to leo
per cent. The law forbids the secre-
tary of the treasury to use the customs
receipts of the United States to enrich
persons and interests friendly to the
administration. But tleaves him free
to be beneyolentand appreciative with
the internal revenue receipts. There
fore you are contributing to the wealth
and the happiness of the Mckinley
Hanna syndicate IS pet bond syndicat-
ors and railway kings and trust barons
whenever you draw a check, or smoke
a cigar or a cigarette, or sleep in a
Pullman car or send telegram, or
give promissory note, or send pack
age by express, or drink glass of beer.
Has Secretary Gage ever heard of a
United States bank issue which made
and unmade presidents half century
ago."

LAW VIOLATED.
Internal Revenue Inspector of Iowa
Looks Into Official Methods In
eaannty Seats.

Internal Revenue Inspector Kirk

ty seats, investigating violations of
the stamp features of the internal rev.
enne laMs
Mr. Kirkpatrick is armed gith all
decisions, and after examining RECORDS
informs officials as to their duties. He
has found an immense amount of vio-
lations OF the law and has informed
every violator who could be reached
that the government is determined to
prosecute further infringements of
the law. The public officers of the
state, according to his Investigations,
have been very negligent in performs
ing their duty in these regards. In
Polk county it was found that 500
bonds have not been properly stamped
and the other counties are almost
equally bad in proportion.

while the express whizzed by. The
first evening that ran my train in
ahead of the express she was much
astonished and delighted. She rushed
up to me and exclaimed, in the high

gion:
