Second InstaIment of License
Money Due Before New
Years.

There was a short meeting of the
Board of License Commissioners yes
/ terday afternoon in the Throne Room.
The meeting was called to act on the
resignation of J. A. Gilman, as secre-
tary of the board. The second install
ment of license fees must be paid
before the first of the year These
fees are to be paid to the secretary of
the board. But as Mr.. Gilman did
not want to have the trouble or re-
sponsibility of receiving these pay
ments, and as it would be more con-
venient for all concerned that they be
payable at the capitol, Mr.. Gilman re-
signed and Territorial Treasurer Camp
bell was reelected, having been secre-
tary before he went east. to arrange
for the bond issue.
The law requires the instruments of
license fees to be paid in advance and
provides that while any instalment re-
mains unpaid the license is automat-
fcally suspended. and if the licensee
sells anything while his license is thus
suspended, he is liable to all the penal
ties of Illicit selling, and his license
may be revoked, further suspended or
he be reprimanded as the board SHALL
see fit.
The construction that the board
places on this is that the second in
stalment of license fees must be paid
not later than December 81. If any
saloonkeeper- fails to pay by that time
he cannot legally keep his place open
or do business on New Years day. This
gives practically but three days in
which to pay these licenses.

PLEA FOR THE JEWS.
The Dislike Of Christmas Among the
Russian Immigrants.

CHICAGO, December 14.-An appeal in
behalf of Jewish immigrants from Rus
STA was made by DR.. Emil G. Hirsch last
night before the Mems Club of the Fourth
Presbyterian Church. DIR. Hirsch urged
that patience be shown Russian Jews
when they protest against Christmas cele-
brations in the public schools.
You must remember" he said, that
Christmas day in Russia is a day of fear
and trembling for the Jews. On that day
no Jewish woman is safe from insult and
the men fear for their lives.
when they flock over to this coun-
try you must expect that they will carry
with them some of their peculiarities. The
newly arrived immigrants do not know
but that Christmas here means the same
to them as in Russia. 1t is for us to show
them that here. is the land of liberation
and freedom

| the recollection of all but the oldest of
the older generations.
| But the buildings where the govern
ment did its own banking still stand as
monuments to the system which it is pro-
posed to resurrect. They form two of
| the interesting landmarks OF Phladel-
| phia. the Quaker city. which is known
| as the cradle of liberty and is per-
haps the richest spot in point of historical
interest in the country.
1t was in 1871 that Congress. chiefly
through the efforts of Alexander Hamil-
ton. first secretary of the Treasury, au-
thorized the establishment of the first
Bank of the United States.
Hamilton's original idea was to in
clude the Bank of North America, which
Robert Morris founded, in the federal
Constitution, but the lawmakers thought
otherwise, and they chartered a new in
stitution with a capital of $4,000, 600 to
run for twenty years. Thomas Willing,
one time partner of Morris. was chosen
president of the bank anu the institution
fulfilled it's function for me allotted time
in the face of an agitation against it.
Albert Gallatin who was Secretary of
the Treasury at the time of the war of
1872 was strongly in favor of Congress
renewing it's charter. but his advice was
the hands of Stephen Girard, the great
philanthropist and financier. uirard re-
named it The Bank of Stephen Girard,"
and operated it as private enterprise
II is Stlll In existence under the same
name
Source of the Bank War.
Need for revival of the federal bank
was felt in 1916, and Congress was pre-
vailed upon to authorize Garter for the
second Bank of the United States in that
same year. 1t was around this institu-
ton that the great bank war" ragged
for many years, and in which those two
remarkable men, Nicholas Biddle and
Andrew Jackson, were the striking fig
ures.
The second bank was capitalized at
$35.0OO,OOO and was to run twenty years.
AS in the case of the first bank, Phila-
delphia was chosen for it's home, as the
City Of Brotherly Love was the financial
center Of the country in those days.
The new bank occupied a magnificent
marble building on Chestnut street above
4th. now used as custom house and the
subtreasury. In its vaults were six or
seven millions of public money. Private
deposits amounted to about six millions
