Secretary Gage said in part:

Secretary Gage sad IN part.
The weakness of our banking sys-
tenn is in the isolation and entire sep
arateness of the individual banks over
the country. When a period OF dis
trust or doubt comes over the land
there is a seeking OF personal safety
through that general instinct Of self
preservation which drives men in I,
confused mass over each other as the
cry of FIRE" in the theatre.
Great prejudice exists l know
against the aggregation OF great wealth
in the hands of a few men. Happily
it Is the law of nature that larger
gains and better advantages can be Sc
cured TO aggregate wealth by serving
faithfully the comments than by eX-
plotting the community through a sys-
tenn of theft and robbery
The secretary continued urging that
there be d reform of the currency sys-
TEN of the nation along the lines out
lined in his report to Congress and de-
clared there was no time more favor
able than the present for the judicious
revision of the laws.
Former Speaker Thomas b. Reed
said in part: "All the dissatisf faction
with our present currency system
seems to be in the West and South.
The people down there have all about
them great natural resources as capa-
BILE of producing wealth as those in the
East What they want is the means to
devOlp those resources. The trouble
with them has been they thought they
wanted currency. when they really
wanted capital For this reason I be-
lieve in a mixed currency.
we must remember that q currency
founded on government bonds has re-
ceived the sanction of 40 years of stump
speaking, of which l have done my
share. The people have been taught
that there was something sacred about
this kind of currency. But government
bonds are slipping away and the gov
ernment is becoming a beggar and
something must be done. We must look
TO the future as well as to the past. But
all thanks to Grant, Cleveland and
John Sherman for an opportunity to
discuss these questions.

have made up their minds is the voice
