man Charles N. Fowler, of New

body, of Massachusetts, have
been writing letters aud inter.

National Banks and sound
currency and the gold standard"
to repeal the restrictions i'm
posed by the act of Congress of
1882. upon the sudden retire.
ment of bank notes for specu.
lative purposes. The act of
1882 was passed to protect the
country against the arbitrary
and unexpected contraction
and subsequent expansion of
currency by banks of issue
which had resulted in disaster
to the whole country. In 1881,
an aggregate retirement of $751;
100000 OF bank currency had
caused a panic; aud the act was
passed to take away from the
banks this panic-power. The
debates in Congress at that
time show that even the Re.
pub'icans had learned to dread
the exercise of such a power by
the unscrupulous financiers OF
those days. But now, it i.
proposed to restore thi, panic.
power by enabling banks to is'
sue asset currency with no sc.
curity and to substitute the
"cats and dogs" Of Wall Stree,

BANKERS PUSH ASSET CUR
renoy.
When the national bank was
empowered to Issue notes, the
measure was advocated on the
ground tLat it would create u
demand for government hnnds
and thus help the government
during the war. That argu-
ment has long sipce ceased t.
be effective, and there il no ex-
cuse now for the bank note ex-
cept that it puts the volume of
money in the hands of the
bankers instead of the govern
ment. The credit currency has
all Of the objections of the pres
ent bank currency and several
other objections which can not
be made against the bank note
as it now exists.
1t is interesting to note the
change of position made by the
bankers. In 1896 they said we
had plenty of money and did
not need any more, and yet, i'm
mediately after the election,
they asked for and obtained the
privilege of issuing more notes
on the ground that the country
needed more. Since that time
we have had an enormous ill.,
crease in the gold prod uction
and gold coinage. We have in
creased the silver coinage aud
the bank note issue until the
per capita circulation is more
than fifty per ceut greater than
1t was ten years ago, and We,
the bankers insist that we must
have more money still-provld-
ed they are allowed to furnish
it. If the government stands
back of the new currency, the
people will bear the risk and
the bankers will make the
money; if the government does
not stand back of the currency,
the bankers will make the
money and the people will run
the risk, but in either case it
means more pre- fit to the bank
er. If they really desire an
elastic currency and not more
currency, why do not the bank
ers propose a reduction of the
bank note issue with pro-
vision that an increase can be
made? Why do the bankers
not apply their tax idea to the
present bank notes and provide
that the issue of bank notes
shall ordinarily be seventy. five
per cent of the par value of the
bonds? The government migth
then permit them to issue an
additional twenty-five per cent
upon the payment of tax that
would retire extra issue when
the emergency was over. This
would give them an elastic
currency, but alas, it has fatal
Obi lection. 1t would not give
them as much profit as their
plan, and therefore it is out of
the question.
The Democratic party is COM
mitted to the doctrine that tue
issue OF money is government
function that ought not to be
delegated to the banks at all,
but in addition to this standing
objection it opposes this new
form of currency which lessons
the security of the depositor,
increases the risk of the note
holder and involves our coun.
try more deeply in the Wall
Street control of our finances,
The fnanciers are not willing

Birds Ten Cents Cheaper
Than at Thanksgiving.
Produce Lower, Too.

In the rush Of purchasing Christmas
gifts early It wouldn't be a bad idea
at this time TO look over the price
list of live and dressed poultry which
appears on another page under the pro-
dUce market quotations.
Although it is always difficult TO de-
termine exactly what conditions will be
so far ahead. local commission mer-
chants are practically unanimous in
prophesying that live and dressed chick
ems and turkeys win be higher the few
days preceding Christmas than they
were a few days before Thanksgiving
Day. This, It is said. Will be the con-
dition even II the good supply which
has been coming I'm for the last few
days continues. What the figures might
be II receipts should fan off IL is easy
TO imagine.
For the last week shipments OF Vir-
GINA and North Carolina chickens and
turkeys have been reaching local mer-
chants in excellent quantities and good
shape. As a result OF these heavy ar
rivals, with the demand no better than
usual, merchants are slightly over
stocked and prices are lower than they
have been for several years.
The best grade of chickens. not
dressed. can be gotten wholesale for
from 10 to y cents per pound, which
means that they should sell for from
j. 10 10 cents per pound retail.
Prices for turkeys are even better in
comparison. All grades Of turkeys are
now selling wholesale at 13 cents per
pound. This means that the consumer
should be able 10 get the best at IA 70
l6 cents a pound. When these figures
are compared with the 20 and IS cents
which consumers paid for the same
grade for their Thanksgiving turkeys
