LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The present condition In the financial

interest rates on deposits and low interest
rates on loans prevail. is looked upon as
rather anomalous. Call money rates are
reported to be IN per cent, while and 4
per cent are paid on time loans on col

At the same time the national banks are
paying 2 per cent on deposits from out-of-
town banks and the trust companies make
a rate of 3 to per cent on individual de-

It however was not promulgated to the
public as a part Of the rules and regula-
items adopted. but was retained as rule
OF conduct for the commission in the selec-
ton of the various persons for judges and
clerks.
s"rhe operation of the aforesaid rule has
resulted in complications which render the
present condition eminently unfair and
greatly prejudical to the interests repre-
scented by the largest and most influential
OF ganizations Of democrats in the District
of Columbia. One Of the bodies which
claimed to be the central democratic COM
mittee of the District of Columbia, has
maintained no organization during the four
years which have elapsed since it's incep-
ton, and has made no effort to reorganize
during the present campaign, most of its
former members being now affiliated with
other representative democratic bodies. In
the face of this lack of organization two
of the former members of the said demo-
cratic central committee, acting in concert
with other persons not affiliated with any
democratic organizations have succeeded
in obtaining recognition before the commits
sion, and upon suggesting names for judges
and clerks have had. their suggestions
adopted, Notwithstanding the objection of
the accredited, representatives Of the regu-
larly organized bodies of the District
democracy This recognition, we are in
formed, was obtained through subterfnge
adopted by the said parties, in obtaining
the signature of thenchairman of the old
organization now obsolete, to q request
to the election commission for permission
to submit names for consideration for
judges and clerks. ID This gentleman was
chairman of one OF the active and existing
organizations and has stated that he was
laboring under Misrepresentation of the
purport of tiis paper when he signed it.
The result of this has been the naming of
a number of persons as judges and clerks
who are objectionable to the only two regu-
larry organized bodies of the District democ
racy A list of these Objectionable judges
and clerks will be furnished to the commits
sion upon request, II it desires to take any
action in the premises.

years gone by. But the time for divi-
sion had ceased. The churches we're
now practically one in the doctrines
they sought to help men and women
up to a truer knowledge OF God and to
a better life in Christ jesus. Let them
think for a moment what the effect Of
union between ,..e two churches would
be in the command Of their united re-
sources, the eConomising of their men,
the combining of energies which were
now often employed I nrivalry, and
were sometimes fruitless and hurtful
leaving those energies free to be en-
ployed in new fields and in extending
the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ a
mongst the heather, where darkness
now reigned. Let them think of the
value to our own land If these churches
could find a common basis upon which
with honor and without loss, they could
unite their forces. By the resolution
he had moved conference was not ask
ed to commit itself to any definite pro-
posals, beyond asking the general con-
ference to take the matter into its con-
sideration, with view to pronouncing
it's judgment upon the question as a
whole. 1t was not proposed to ask the
general conference to try to find a ba-
sis of Union, but merely to pronounce
upon the desirableness of union. 1t
the general conference deemed it de-
sirable then he presumed it would take
suitable action, so that the churches
might take steps to cultivate a closer
knowledge of each other, and bring "a
bout ndue time, and he hoped only
in due time, ultimate union of the
churches.

METHODISTS AND
PRESBYT ERIANS
FOR ORGANIC UNION
OF THE TWO GREAT RELIGIOUS
DENOMINATIONS IN AUSTRALIA

At the Methodist Conference of New
South Wales now in session, Rev. w.
II. Beale moved the adoption of the fol-
lowing recommendation from the com
mittee appointed to consider the ques-
ton of closer union with other churches
THAT, in harmony with the terms Of
the resolutions of the Joint committee
we recommend the general conference
to consider and pronounce upon the
question of the disturbances of an or
ganic union between the Presbyterian
and Methodist churches" Few, if any,
of the actions in which the conference
had been engaged was, he said, so sig
nificant as that in which they were
about to engage. They were, he thought,
making history. He counted it amongst
not the least Of the many honorable dis
tinctions that had been given to him in
connection with his ministry to be per-
mitted to stand in the relation he now
stood to the question before them, and
to be permitted to present the rosolu
ton he now moved. He ventured to say
that they were building today better
than they knew, and that they were
! planting a tree whose fruit they might
rot pluck, but whose fruit would be
! rlucked by generations to come. They
were laying the corner stone Of a build
ing which would not be the least
amongst those fabrics which together
made up and represented the living
body, the home of the living Spirit of
the great Head of the Church. The fact
that the report Of the committee had
become possible was one of very great
significance. There was a time when il
would not have been possible, and when
it would have been considered beyond
I the widest dreams of the widest
dreamer. Early in the year communica-
lions were opened up between the COM
mittee of the Methodist Church appoint
ed for the purpose and a committe OF
General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church of Australia. The committed

to the conclusion that If they could
get over the question as to whether
the existence of the Methodist Church
as a separate entity was desirable or
not, union could be effected between
the two churches with magnificent re-
suits. 1t might probably not come in
the near future, but after our people
had been educated on the question. He
thought they would tae n step in the
right direction by carrying the resolu-

ed him, and harmony of spirit was
shown which did not surprise him so
much, but which was amongst the most

that no one would cherish the idea tina.
there was to be any attempt to force
the question of union. Someone had re-
marked that the question was one ofy
20 years hence. 1t might be so, but
even if it were let them look at it as a
matter of 20 years hence. They would
remember that the initiative in thus
movment was taken by the General AS
sembly of the Presbyterian Church OF
Australia. The Presbyterian Church,
with its fine historic associations, wi,h
it's fine character, its extended and eX-
tending influence, and with the re-
sources it had in the pulpit and out Of
it, certainly did not lead it to need or
require the reinforcement and additions
which union would bring; but in the
spirit of true evangelism that Church
asked how far would such a union
one great whole for the purpose Of ad-
vancing Christ's kingdom in the world.
OF all the evangelical Churches of the
world there were no two that together
Ncould make the strength, bulk, and
power that the Methodist and Presby-
terrain Churches could. He hoped that
the conference would notice under what
severe limits the committee invited it
to make the accommodations to the
General Conference. The present was
not the time for them to task what
| should be the basis, it was not the time
| to inquire into the final adjustment OF
! the differences which existed between
! the two churches. They knew, how
ever that their unities were more in
number and more in magnitude and
value than their varieties, and that the
variations that now existed were grow
ing less by the very trend Of the age
in which they lived. The question
arose whether they had any right to
look for a closer union. The commit
tee was of opinian that such closer as
sociation to be effective in the fullest
degree must be the association of a
corporate and organic union, one with
another. The reasons which present
ed themselves to the committee were
the value of this proposed union in re-
lation to the great evangelical enter,
Eprises of the churches, the value Of
it as constituting a force that would
WELD a mighty moral influence upor
the spirit of unbelief and unchristiar
feeling that existed in the world, thu
value of it as combining and directing
the resources of the churches in mel
and money and the value of it as re
alising more fully than the chuhch haC
