Secretary Garfield aud FORESTER
Pinchot have completed the draft of
a bill to be introduced in congress for
placing vast vacant grazing lands I'M
der government control. The bill
provides for the establishment of
grazing districts by presidential proc
lamation. Districts shall be under
the administration of the secretary
of agriculture. who shall issue graz
ing permits to stockmen for / 0 years,
giving preference to nomesteaders
and permanent occupants of range,
fixing reasonable fees on the grazing
value of the land The governor of
each state is to appoint an executive
committee of stock men to act with
the government officers in apportion-
ing the range on per capita or acre
age basis, all of the distribution of
the range and determine the number
of animals for each district. Lands
within the grazing district shall con-
tinue subject to homestead and min
eral entry. Ten per cent of the pro-
ceeds of the rentals is for the benefit
of counties containing the leased
lands, and $25O,O00 is appropriated
to carry the act into effect. After its
establishment in any grazing district
one years time is given in which to
obtain permits.

plus of interior banks but by calling
in their own loans. which were de-
creased last week by $17,653, 900.
The outside banks are holding on to
their surplus reserves. II they would
all deposit in New York, as was to be
expected the banks of that city, by
merely refraining from extending
their loans, would long ago have had
a surplus of reserve, while now they
are getting it by pressing collections
at time when, under the circum-
stances, 1t is quite desirable that they
should be absorbing the prime mer-
camille paper, of which SO much Is
offered at entieing rates of interest.
Of course. country banks are not
sending to New York because no bank
has confidence that all will do so. and
they do not care to put their money
where they are not certain to get il
back instantaneously if desired, and
the result is that a great deal of
money remains tied up which the
community would like to borrow and
the banks would like to lend. There
is a possibility that this experience
may lead to change in banking

governing deposits by one bank in
another. 1t is question which has
two sides to it, but hitherto the prac-
tice has upon the whole been profit
able TO the banks, and therefore, to
the public, which owns and borrows
the money in the banks. The OBJ
lection to it has been that it fosters
speculation by placing, during a
great part of each year, a great guam
tity of idle money at the disposal of
the speculative class. II was the
abundance of idle money available
for eall' loans during the first years
of the present century which boosted
securities of all kinds to prices enor-
mously above their value, and it is the
absence of such money and the calling
of such loans which has reduced
prices far below actual values. 1t Is
a question whether upon the whole
this practice is desirable, or whether
banks ought not to be required to
keep all their reserves in their own
vaults. This would have several re-
suits. 1t would diminish specula-
tion in central reserve cities. but it
would also decrease the profits of the
banks and, therefore, probably in
crease the interest rate on commercial
loans. 1t would make New York
underwriting operations far more
difficult and would involve financial
establishments generally on a very
large scale. Ii is likely to be pro-
posed and ought to be considered on
its merits, as 1t would involve con-
sequences difficult for the wisest to

Al the meeting of the city council
Of Ely last night, Mayor Clark stated
that in his report he would recon-
mend the suspension of city licenses
for the quarter commencing with this
month as an aid to business inter-
ests which the city was justified in
extending from the fact that its treas
ury is abundantly supplied to meet
current needs. councilmen Root and
Hall gave assurance of their support.
The spirit Of this proposal of the
mayor and Of the support given it by
the councilmen commends each of
them as broad gagged public SER
wants, equal to emergencies and en-
titled to the esteem of the commune
ty. Should they find it possible to
carry ont the plan they propose it
will have the hearty support of the
News, and we believe of all citizens
with the best interests of the COM
munity at heart.

The Tonopah Miner says: The ore
shipments over the Tonopah & Gold

value (the shipping ore being valued
at $40 ton and the milling ore at
$40 tom of $166.460.
On account of the labor trouble,
Goldfeld made no shipment of ore
during the past week.

THE lost OF NEW YORK.

Mr.. Metz. controller of the city OF
Greater New York, and one of the
chief financial officers of the metrop-
Oils recently made a statement rela-
tive to the expenses of the govern
ment Of that city which has attracted
vile attention.
summing up the amount of money
spent by the New York city govern
ment in the year that is just ending
Mr. Metz stated that New York city
had spent more money in this year
'nan London, Paris, Berlin, Holland,
Denmark and Sweden combined.
The New York World points out
the fact that in his estimate Mr.. Metz
included an unprecedentedly large
bond ISSUE The actual expenses OF
the city, however, we're millions in ex-
cess OF those Of London and Berlin

OF Mr. Metz is correct.

NORMAL FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
(San Francisco Chronicle. }

(San Francisco Chronicle.) =.
Financial disturbances from time
to time seem inevitable, and while we
may recognize that in general they
are all the result of a reaction from
oyerconfidence in the ability of the
immediate future to pay profits on
invested capital yet the conditions
attending the successive disturbances
and controlling the return to the nor
NAL are always different, so that
precedent does not enable even the
wisest financiers to predict the course
of events with much confidence.
In the present case the return to
normal, although certain in the end
is not proceeding precisely as previous
experience has led those most familiar
with such things to expect. If we
assume, as we probably may. that
conditions throughout the country
will be normal whenever the New
York banks have their full legal re-
serves. we had the right. according
to all previous experience, to expect
that point to have been reached by
this time. Last Saturdays bank
statement, however, showed that the
New York banks were still $40, no.
$50 short of the cash which they
should have had in their vaults. But.
on the other hand. it appeard that
this was gain of about $34,000,00O
during the last six weeks-for the
banks were at one time $54, 1000 900
Shorthand of ,5S0,650 during
the previous week. 1t was also dis
closed by the recent call on the
national banks that the interior banks
and the banks in some reserve cities
like our own hold reserves largely in

and of the Berlin government

and of the Berlin government 20
millions.
London, 1t must be remon- bered, is
fully so per cent as large again as
New YORK. Therefore 1t costs Just
twice as mnch In proportion to gov
ern New York as London. New York
is Just twice as big as Berlin, but it
costs live times as much money to
run New York as Berlin
A comparison of the expenses spent
by the same city departments in New
York and Berlin is interesting. The
budget of the two cities on few
items for the year just ended fol-
lows:
Cost of Administering
New York Berlin
Parks 49,. 50. 1000 $27S, 900
Charities and
hospitals :. 1851 900 9.3o5. 900
Street clean
ing ...... 5.692.0 900 1866, 900
Museums and
Libraries :. 634,000 $4,000
Water supply 1,97S.0oO 10000
Ii is remarkable fact shown by
this table that Berlin, with twice the
population of New York, spends So
3O5,0 for charities and hospitals,
as against only $2,5S1,00J for New
York. These figures at least show
that poverty and disease are more
prevalent in the old world, even If
other city departments are conducted
for less money.

Judge O'Brien of Tonopah will be
called upon in the near future to de-
eide the constitutionality of the law
passed by the Nevada Legislature
which prevents soliciting in Nevada in
favor of business houses outside the
state. The case has been remanded
by the supreme court for trial. 1t
was taken to the supreme court by
Attorney Clay Tallman of Rhyolite
and concerns the liberty of A. f.
Broege, who was arrested on the
charge of soliciting orders for mems
clothing house. The case is a habeas
corpus proceeding. Plaintiff in the
action contends that the law is uncon-
stitutional in that 1t interferes with

bars citizens of another state from
the same rights of citizens of this
state, contrary to the constitution of
