how saloons help the trade of town

were forced to bring pressure to bear
on the city council to reduce the num-
Der OF saloons. This for the reason.
and here is the gist OF the argument.
that the saloons were getting money
that belonged naturally to the store
keepers. That accounts on the bust
ness mems books were not paid as
promptly as they should be, for the
saloon men got the cash. There
wasn't bit Of temperance or prohi-

case they drew too much trade.

MORE BANK NOTES.

The currency committee Of the Am
erican Bankers Association has re-
ported in favor of a very simple sys-
tenn of credit notes, that is bank notes
which are not secured by deposits OF
United States bonds and the probabil:-
ties now are that bill to amend the
currency laws in accordance with this
suggestion will occupy the attention of
congress and the public this winter.
There is nothing alarming nor revo-
lutionary in the proposed changes. So
far as the public is concerned, the new
bank notes will look just like the
present ones and to each individual
will appear to be just as scarce as
ever. The change will be in the bust
ness relations Of banks with the gov
eminent. National banks will contin-
lie to issue bank notes secured by gov
eminent bonds as they now do. When
they have taken out the required
amount Of bond secured currency they
may, under the proposed changes, take
out forty per cent as much again with
out putting up bonds but paying a tax
on this portion at the rate Of 2R per
cent per annum. This tax and little
more besides will be held by the gov
eminent as a guarantee fund or irl-
rryh nh 70 %6a
notes of all failed banks. Banking ex-
perience during the past fifty years
has shown that this tax will more than
insure all losses so that the public can
accept a national banks unsecured
note for IS with just as much safety as
it can accept the present bond secured
note of a national bank The scheme
is safe and it gives the banks an OPP
portunity to swell their volume Of cur
rency whenever business men need
more money than usual. Then again
the banks will be able to retire their
notes quickly and save 21s per cent in
terest tax whenever business demands
let up.
Credit currency is no untried expert
ment 1t has operated admirably and
safely for half century in Scotland
and Canada, but the most important
made by the American
bankers committee is that all govern
ment money should be kept on deposit
in national banks at 2 per cent in
terest without being secured by bond
collateral. At present whenever the
government is prospecting and its in
come exceeds its disbursements, mil
lions upon millions of basic money is
locked up in the subtreasuries at the

than usual for their reserve. The law
requires banks to keep on hand in gold
ana silver and U. S. notes fifteen psr
cent of their deposits. There is no rea-
son why national banks would not be
safe repositories for government mon
ey SO long as they are safe enough for
an individuals money and 80 long as
the government is inspecting the ma
tonal banks 1t ought not to ask for
any more security than is granted to
the individual for his deposits.
Some of US will complain that the
limit of so per cent of banks capital
is too wide, that the government ought
not to deposit over $4,000 or $4,000
in any one bank of 100000 capital and
congress may take the same view A
few of us may also want the banks
to pay 2hper cent interest instead of
per cent, so as to dam the stream
OF money to Wall street, and congress
may agree with us, but the scheme Is
a good one. The last treasury estimate
predicted government surplus Of fifty
millions before the end of the year. At
2 per cent the government would re-
celVe million a year in interest.
whereas now 1t receives nothing Get

Wall street will not grab 1t all and we
will have taken on a most beneficial

"GoD SAVE THE IRISH"

The surprise SO often expressed over
the number Of Irish names on the po-
lice roster and in every 9TH
err position where political pull
and individual push are first
aids to the ambitious, is consid-
erably lessened by reference to the
statistics Of Irish immigration into the
United States. Five million Irishmen
and women have come to America
from the little green island Of theic
birth since 1880. From this island lit
tie more than half the size OF the state
of Iowa, has come within scarcely
more than two generations an influx of
homeseekers-for the Irish are all
omeseekerS-that would populate two
states like Iowa. Between 1s4o ard
1850 not fewer than 100000 "Irish men
and women came thither. From 1860 to
1880 an additional 100000 made a
new start In life In this free country.
and from 1880 to the present time an
another 100000 have been added to
our population.
fourth Of the 100000 are set
tied in the twelve agricultural states
Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois. Wis
consin, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota,
Kansas, Nebraska, North and South
Dakota. Only one-fifth of the portion
settled in the North Atlantic states are
on farms, but this tendency to crowd
into the centers Of population disap-
pears when the surroundings are ag-
ricultural, as is proved by the largo
percentage, more than so, of those who
have taken to farming in the twelve
states named. The Irish are an agri
cultural people and 1t is only because
the bulk Of them in the United States
are not in farming districts that they
seem less so than some Of the other
elements Of immigration population.
This vast volume of immigration
explains in part the prominence of the
lIlSH III our pollllCdl HE anu lIle III
stinct Of the Irish toward politics, and
the solidarity of the Irish vote Is
further explanation. That the grand
sons Of the paddles" who came in
sweltering shiploads to WELD pick and
shovel first on the turnpikes and later
on railroad construction and public
works, who were ignorant rotous, in
temperate and Industrious, are leaders
in politics and professions, is the best
proof Of the quality of their race and
the efficacy Of our free school system.
1t has been less than two generations
from the shanty to the senate, from
the pick and tanlping bar to the scep-
ter Of authority. The Irish in America
are strong race, grated on stronger
stock. What wonder that they flour
ish? Intelligent, Industrious and
anxious to rise. why shouldn't the
