"In Gold We Trust. "

The New York bankers who prepar-
ed a banquet to show their loyalty to
the gold standard have wound up by
proving their dIsl0yalty to almost eV-
erything else. They prepared tiny
boxes for the Ice cream which repre-
sented a pile of $40 gold pieces, with
t.Ie eagle and the goddess cut out up
on them, and the device, ''In God We
Trust" changed so as to read "ln Gold
We Trust" The motto was Sacrl-
]ege and the bankers association will
probably hear more of it. 1t is not
possible that Mr.. Bryan will let SUCH
an opportunity pass. When croWo
of men become so bind III their WOr-
ship of mammOn as to change their
faith in divinity to their faith in dol
lars the drift Of the money changer
becomes too evident and this spirit
will probably be rebuked at the polls
as we'll as in the pulpit. When crowd
of men can cOngregate and change the
shibboleth of the nation from trust
in God to a trust in gold the time has
come, as oliver Goldsmith said,
"Ill fares that land to Fastening ills a
prey,
When wealth accumulates and men
decay
This bankers revel promises to be
something worse than the feast Of Bel
| shazzer. The blow that almost killed
| the bankers, however, game from q
quarter least expected. By very re-
finement of fate the government whose
gold policy the bankers were bolster
ing up in measures of idolatry swooped
down upon them for making counter
teits Of gold dollar. The la"
SAYS that no die, mold, cast, or stamp
in imitation of government coin shall
be prepared, so that even though the
bankers protested that the COINS were
only pasteboard boxes filled with ice
cream the detectives raided the whole
concern just as they would demolish {
counterfeit joint. The bankers have
gotten kick from the golden calf it
self. The very animal which they
were Worshipping has kicked over the
ice cream freezer. The bankers put
their trustin gold and their goddess has
gone back on them like tickle heifer
| Hereafter the bankers Will not be 81
swift to put their trust in coin OF

we rscEs ANSWER NOT SATISFACTORY

Senator Allen has introduced reSo>
luton calling for an investigation OIL
the sale by Mr.. Gage, the secretary Oh
the treasury, of the New York custom
house to the City Bank of New YORK.
It has been claimed by the repuol-
cams that Mr.. Cages report respect
ing this sale was so full and frank
+het there was no more to be said about
the matter, but the whole TRANSACTION
was so remarkable that there IS wei
grounded susplcon that something was
kept back.
II is probable that the secretary kept
within the letter of the law authorlz-
ING the sale of the custom house, ouV
did he not violate the spirit OF II?
What was the transaction? Inc
custom house was sold on July 9, 1892
to the National City Bank.for S3,26o'-
600 The bank was the highest bidder
It's also a depository for funds OF the
government. 1t has bonds on deposit
IN tho treasury as security TOR any
money deposited with it. When IL
purchased the custom house 1t notlneo
Mr.. Gage that it would pay the Whoie
omount of the purchase price except
$50, and would give the treasury
credit for the money on its books 1t
did not want the title to pass to 1t at
that time. If the title had passed 1T
would beyond any question: have been
liable for taxes on the building. III
rented the building, however, for per
cent. on the entire purchase price, or
about $4,000 per annum.
This completed an interesting trai's-
cotton. The bank receives per cent
on the bonds deposited as security Tor
the purchase price, it gets 4 per cehC'
interest on the purchase price ana II
hos the use of the entire amount or the
purchase money for banking purposes
Assuming that the purchase money IS
worth per cent. for banking purposes
II gets an incone of about Ii per cent
or more than 50, 000, 900 without tue
outlav of dollar. And 1t refuses TO
nav taxes on the old custom house on
the ground that tho title still remains
in the government. If that is not
clever financiering 1T would be inter
astine to know what it is. 1t is not
to be wondered at that the senate de-
sires to know something more about
this transaction than what Mr.. Gage
has already told.
