Editor Independent: How soon the

is evidently the intention of the pro-
moters CT the scheme embodied in this
bill to briEg ADOPT that result very
soon. When the national banks have
agreed to currently redeem $130,000,000
of the legal tender notes, $65,000,000
will. be at once destroyed, and the ma
tional banks are, after this, prohibited
from paying out dollar OF the $751;
688,016 remaining, when it comes into
their hands. 1t must be returned by
them to the treasury where it will be
redeemed and destroyed. This, as 1
have said, provides for the immediate
destruction of every dollar of legal
tender government paper except the
$130, 900. The only thing that will
prevent this is the proviso contained
in section three. as follows:
SAf5ut it shall be the duty OF the Sec
sxSkarv of the treasury to maintain the
sTeSerVe Iunu at amount NOT less
than 80 1-3 per centum Of the United
States notes at any time outstanding. =
It is impossible to tell from the bill
itself whether it is intended, by this
provision, that when the gold reserve
is reduced to 33 1-3 per centum OF the
outstanding legal tender government
currency the department must stop the
redemption and destruction, or wheth-
er it means that the secretary must
buy gold to keep the reserve up to the
required amount. Authority to issue
bonds has, in the past, been predicated
uron a not much less flimsy basis.
The moment presentation for can
collation. is made under this section,
that moment the paying out and is
suing of gold certificates stops; and,
under section Is, the power to issue
geld certificates is transferred to pri-
yate institutions or clearing houses
to which the board of control is auth
orized to grant charters for twenty
years.
Section Is. That said board Of con-
troll may grant charters to clearing
houses for twenty years, with such cap
ital and power to effect clearances be-
tween banks, bankers, trust companies
and other financial associations, and
to do and perform such other business
and service incident to clearinghouse
business as such board of control may
approve.
'sAnd such clearing houses are here
by authorized to receive deposits OF
gold coin and to issue certificates
therefor IN denominations of not less
than twenty dollars each.

Said certificates shall be receivable for
customs, taxes and all public dues, ETC.,
etc.
In late debt and cash statement,
it appears that, of the amount of gold
certificates represented as outstanding,
there was over S40,000,0U0 in the gem
eral fund of the department, and
against which in the trust funds WaS~
held that amount Of gold Theae was

Editor Independent: 1t would seem
to me that it is not necessary to say
anything further in regard to fusion
than what has already been said by
Mr.. Watson. Ten years ago the pop
ulist party controlled states, had a
dozen congressman and displayed an in
tegrity which fri Shtened the old money
power. It must be side-tracked. For
that purpose Wall street hatched out
the silver nonsense, and OF course some
brilliant adventurers were ready to
exploit it. The professional crowd,
who always have betrayed the people,
took it up and were able to drag the
populist party into the fusion folly.
Every succeeding election showed a
decreasing vote and weakened or
ganization until 1904 found us dis
organized and powerless.
This record certainly ought to salts
fy the lickspittles of w. J. Bryan, and
is also eminently satisfactory to Wall
street. The farmers made the party;
the lawyers destroyed it. This is the
history. Will it be repeated?
OF one thing you may be certain:
hereafter there will be straight popu-
list party in this state and nation.
The recent election dropped the DEM
ocratic party right where Cleveland
left it in 1S96-a traitor to the people,
a defamer of the nations character, a
corrupt and abject tool of every scheme
Of theft and exploitation which the re-
publican bosses ha launched. Two
republican parties! 1t is just as hon
orable and effective to fuse with one
OF them as the other.

provision, q part of another section
ought to be read. as follows:

assets Of said failed banks an amount

same shall be paid into the guarantee

the ultimate security for asset cur
