SALOON
BURNING QUESTION

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Nov o.
(SpeciaI -"The day will come when
the saloon will be no more. Already
we have seen this come to pass in
many places. The abolition of the
saloon is the burning question before
the American people"
The speaker, DR.. Homer W. Tope,
of New York, head of the Anti Saloon
League, addressed a temperance
meet1hg last evening in the Eigh-
teenth Street Methodist Episcopal
Church. Describing the work of the
league and other temperance organ
izations, he told of the results &C
complished by their campaigns
against the liquor interests. The
most important, he said, is that 49,
100000 people of the United States
live in dry" territory The legisla-
JOIS are SlNlH5 nCCu " thC SupJS$H
as demonstrated by the fact that 20
States passed temperance legislation
last winter.
Doctor Tope said that Pennsylvania
was a bad case, but not hopeless.
Temperance is the paramount is
sue in this State, and by organizing
the anti-saloon forces in every coun-
ty before the next election we hope
to get a local option law" he said.
"All churches must unite upon this
issue in this State, as they have else
where. The politicians will respect
that power. We must make it polit-
ically safe for our legislators to do
the right thing AS in other States
this combined church vote must be
cast for men who stand for temper
ance, Republicans as to whether they
are Republicans or Democrats. The
safety of our sons is of greater inn
portance than partlsanship"

A Banking Lesson
New York Times)

Before the bank runs pass into
history it is we'll to use them as an
example to enforce some primary les
sons in banking. 1t is to be doubted
that the ordinary depositor is aware
that if each savings bank account
were reduced by a single dollar the
total would be between two and three
times the total amount of money in
circulation, gold, silver, greenbacks,
bank notes, and the rest of our varie-
gated currency.
The dollar a man takes to a bank
is not left there until called for. There
would be nothing in that for the bank
ers Neither is the dollar deposited
merely lent out to borrowers, so that
calling in a dollar of loans would re-
pay a dollar of deposits. The dollar
deposited is lent out several times,
since experience has shown that a
reserve of one-quarter is ample to
meet the demands of all who want
their money in the ordinary course
of business.
To meet extraordinary demands
loans indeed may be called, but it is
necessary to call four-or even more
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-11-10

times the amount of the deposit
tors demands to pay him cash. If
the demands are persistent enough
and large enough the bank must
sell it's investments. And in the
next state the banks cannot lend any
fresh money to borrowers. The re-
suit may be felt in most unexpected
quarters. The cotton planters in the
South, and the grain raisers in the
Northwest, are now compelled 10
take lower prices for their goods
because the run of the New York
banks has been reflected to the set
Element limit of the United States.
Hardly any amount of banking
strength will prevent such a result.
For example, the United States has
much more than one-fifth of all the
gold money in the world, and more
than one-fifth of the uncovered paper
money. And yet we use deposit cur
rency," more than other people. In
France the amount of deposits sub
ject to check is only one-eighth the
amount of banknotes. In Germany
such deposits are only between one
half and one-third of the notes in Cir
culation. 1t is almost impossible to
imagine in those nations such a gath
ering up of banknotes as should make
a run on the issuers for redemption
at all comparable in severity with our
recent bank run. The reason is that
more than nine-tenths of our bank
business is done by checks.
There are altogether nearly thir-
teen billions of bank deposits in the
United States and total money cir
culation of less than three billions.
Yet the repayment Of all deposits in
solvent banks is guaranteed y the
total volume of all commerce. People
think they exchange goods with mon
ey. The hoarder of money is not a
desirable citizen.

in certain banks, upon the applica-
ton Of those banks, on good and
sufficient security therefor, as provid-
ed by law.
"The size of the crop each year
determines the extent of the demand,
and the supply of new money should
be regulated automatically by that
demand and should be retired from
circulation when and as the cause
for the demand is removed
Il make bold to suggest that if the
government could establish bonded
warehouses at convenient points and
issue warehouse certificates upon
products deposited therein, up to say
80 per cent of the market value of
the same, such certificates to circu-
late as currency, that then the cur
rency needed would be automatically
created and supplied at the times and

SELLING OFF LANDS
DOWN AT D'SOTO
Hundreds of Acres Sold
Already.

The Times Recorder told recently
of the purchase of the great DeSoto
plantation near Americas by Messrs.
Rylander and Sheffield, and their pur-
pose to divide the 5000 acres into
snug little farms. The subdivision
has already been made and the little
farms are selling like hot cakes, such
is the demand for small farms so adj
eral hundred acres have thus been
sold and at satisfactory prices, and
many thrifty new corners to Sumter
will result from the cutting up of
this fine old plantation.

How 1t Would Work

when money has gotten easy
and prices are rising or, at least,
normal conditions are restored, then
the depositor would naturally request
the warehouse to sell his staple de-
posits.. This done, the government
official in charge would take out of
the price for which the products sold
the amount of the certificates adj
vanced, plus reasonable charge, or
tax, to cover the expenses incurred
by the government, RENTING this sum
(as the customs officers now do to
the Treasury, there to be set aside as
a redemption fund for such certifi-
Gates.
by this plan there would be add
ed to the currency of the country each
year just exactly the amount of money
necessary to handle properly the
crops, and, when it had performed it's
function, it would be retired as in
Dictated above. This, it seems to me,
would be an ideal elastic feature to
our currency system, and one where
by the extent Of elasticity would
be automatically regulated.

Only Other Way

but if, instead of removing one
of the great causes that inevitably
produce money stringency at this
time each year, we are going to CON
tinue to have the Treasury Depart
ment try to counterfeit bad results
by depositing money, as long as
there is any, in banks here and there,
where the trouble is most acute, then
Congress should provide a way to
increase the currency to at least
$500, 100000 more and authorize this
sum to be held in the Treasury as an
emergency fund, to be put out to
meet the annual demand for remov-
ing the crops, and to be withdrawn
from circulation when the demand is
over"
