Columbia enjoining the American
Federation OF Labor with its mem
bership of 10000 or more, from
boycotting the Bucks Stove and

alterations in the currency system Of
The government as shall bring about
greater elasticity in the issuance
and retirement OF bank notes. 1t is
pointed ont by Mt Ridgely that the
present reserve system has the seri-
GUS fault that in times of emergency
the iunas deposited in the reserve and
central reserve cities are not always
available for the very purpose for
which they were designed.
In The plan of the comptroller the
central bank should have government
control as an essential feature, with
the great bulk Of shares owned by the
other national banks, which would be
allowed to subscribe for them in fixed
proportion to their capital The profits
of the undertaking would 60 to the
government after a certain sum had
been set aside for surplus and divi-
dends OF and 4 per cent Directors
under this plan would be chosen in
the proportion OF two-thirds by the
stockholders and one-third by the gov
ernment.
The bank would not be allowed to
do a general or commercial business.
but would be confined to the trans
actions of government business. the
issue of credit notes, receiving reserve
deposits from other banks. the dis
count Of their paper on approved Sc
curitY, or rediscounting notes of their

SAYS He IS NOT A CANDIDATE

Washington. Dec. is. - Secretary
Cortelyou, in a signed statement pro-
nOunces unqualifadly false the current
rumors of undue political activity of
his friends i'm forwarding a movement
In his interest The secretary declares
that neither he nor his friends have
used their influence in behalf of any
candidate for the presidency. and that
he has not been a candidate for any
2 thing but the confidence of the people.
He adds that if he should hereafter de-
eide to be candidate for any office, he
will say SO frankly. The statement
follows:
4 do not know that I am called upon
to make a statement at this time but
in view of the various rumors in cir
culation as to the alleged political ac-
tivity of friends of mine in my interest
I will say that | have not been a candi-
date for anything but the confidence of
the people in the discharge of my
duties as secretary Of the treasury.
1 have not in person sought nor have
the friends whose names have been
mentioned in this connection sought to
influence political movements in my
interest; l have not, nor have they,
used any influence, directly or Indirect
Iy, to secure political support for OF
against any candidate for the presi-
dency, and accusations that such has
been done are unqualifiedly false. In
no Office, in no one of the three depart
ments with which | have been con-
nected, have I authorized or permit
ed officials or employees to attempt
to influence any such movements, nor
shall do So
In common with many other citi
zens, have decided views as to poll
cies and as to candidates. but I shall
refrain from expressing them until !
believe It is proper for me to do so. f.
Upon this statement I am entirely I
content to leave the people to draw
their own conclusions regarding such /
rumoTs as those to which l have re-
ferred. If in the future 7 shall decide .
to be a candidate for any Office I shall .
be prepared to say so frankly and +
state the grounds upon which I ask
for support. In the meantime l shall
try, as l have tried in the past to
conduct the treasury department for
the benefit of the people of the whole
country, and absolutely without regard
to whether any action I may take in
the line of my duty may adversely af-
,ect my personal or political welfare.

To Dredge Out Lewes River.

Frank c. llaull has bonded as treas.
urer of the Lewes River Improvement
Company, which was incorporated by the
recent Legislature to improve Lewes
River. The act made the laying OF a
special tax on the property holders of
Lewes and Rehoboth hundreds optional
with themselves to be decided at an
especial election which was held last
spring. The result was largely in favor
OF laying the tax of one-quarter Of one
per cent for two years to raise the sum
sufficient to dredge the river to the point
where it would join the work now being
done by the government on the Broad
kiln River
The government is already at work on
Broadkiln River, and it was thought that
because Of the presence of dredging
machines right in the vicinity good rate
could be obtained for the Lewes end.
The contractors are at work constructing
a jetty at the junction of the Broadkiln
and Lewes Rivers, and bids have been
opened for deepening and Strengthening
Broadkiln River near the mouth.
The Lewes River Improvemt Company
expect to dredge to a mean low water
water depth of about six or seven feet so
that light draught vessels can come
directly to the town, as was once the case
in former days, when shipbuilding was
an industry along the-river banks.
The special tax was for two years
Of one per cent on assessed
value each year. This means about $4,000,
and the amount should go a long way
.oward making the river navigable for
small craft from the new jetty to the town
ront, a distance of about three miles.
