Gage and Deposit Guarantees.

Editor of the Evening Post.
If am not mistaken, the Fowler
currency bill contained clause guar
anteeing deposits; furthermore, my
recollection is that the Hon. Lyman
J. Gage ex-secretary Of the treasury
appeared before the Finance Commit
tee of Congress and expressed his
strong approval of that particular
feature of the bill Will you republish
this part of the Fowler bill and what
Mr.. Gage stated before the committee?
| read the bill and the remarks of Mr..
Gage in the Evening Post at the time.
E. E. Knott.
New York, October IA.
The Fowler bill provided that on
January 10 and July 10 of each year,
every national bank should have on
deposit with the United States Treas
urer IAN amount Of gold coin or other
lawful money equal to 5 per centum
of it's average deposits during the pre-
ceding calendar six months and . per
centum of it's national bank notes
taken out for issue and circulation.
1t further provided for 2 per cent.
tax on all outstanding bank notes. 1t
then went on to provide (Section 10:
The 5 per centum of all deposits so
deposited with the United States treas
urer, and the per centum OF all note
issues so deposited with the United
States treasurer, and the per centum
paid to the treasurer OF the United
States upon the national bank notes
in circulation, shall constitute COM
mon or general guarantee fund for
the following uses and purposes, name
ly: To guarantee the payment of all
individual deposits, all bank notes, all
bank deposits, and all government
deposits without discrimination or
preference, and to pay all the expenses
incurred in any way in properly con-
Quoting and maintaining the several
"bank-note redemption agencies" in
Guiding the charges for the transmits
sion of bank notes by any national
bank to it's "bank-note redemption
agency" and all expenses of whatso-
ever kind incurred in the examinations
of the banks of the respective "bank-
note redemption districts" except as
provided in section nine of this act,
and all the expenses incurred by the
members of the respective boards OF
managers in the performance of their
official duties.
Ex-Secretary Gage stated at the
House hearing on the Fowler bill, last
February, that when he first studied
the Fowler bill, he found stumbling
block in it's provision to guarantee
deposits" but that investigation and
reflection had convinced him that this
was an equitable and just provision,
and, with few slight amendments, he
was heartily in favor of Mr.. Fowler's
measure. Ed. Evening Post.

In loving remembrance of JAMES A. SLASEAN

Lonely the no Use and sad the hours
Since cur dear ones have gone,
But brighter home than ours
In heaven is now their home.
We miss him so, mourn him still,
No one his vacant place can fill;
Well pray that when call shall come
To join him IN his heavenly home.
How often standing near thy tomb
We sigh for thee, Nettie. in the deepest gloom; /;
Thy face minds will ever see,
Forgotten thou shalt never be.
We will soon pass on to meet them,
And make whole the broken band
Meet them just across the river,
In that beautiful happy land.

Bryan Would Smash Protection.
"The Democrats will ask for reduc.
tion Of the tariff
Speaking at Boncsteel $. d., on Sat
urday night, william Jennings Bryan
in those words declared what will
doubtless be the principal plank in the
platform that will be adopted at Dem
yer.
Observe that he used the word 'rc-
duction, and give him credit for frank.
ness,
He does not attempt to conceal the
real intent OF his party with such terms
rs tariff revision" and "tarifr re.
form" he declares openly and un.
equiyocabIy for tariff reduction, whose
logical conclusion is free trade.
Tariff reduction, carried into effect
would bring the products Of American
labor into competition, in the home
markets, with the products OF under
paid foreign labor. This would neCes,
state cutting Of prices, and the advo-
Gates of tariff reduction dwell upon the
specious argument that lower prices
would be good for the masses.
But cutting OF prices to the level at
which American manufacturers could
compete with foreign products in the
home markets would compel reducLi on
OF wages OF American wOrkmen to the
foreign low level. Moreover, greatly
increased imports would diminish the
demand for American latOr even at
the low wages.
The Republican system of protection
protects the American workman in
even greater degree than the Amcri.
can manufacturers, and it protects the
small manufacturers more than it does
the large corporations. The last men
TONED could live through the dcmoral-
izing process OF readjustment which
tariff reduction would make inevitable:
but the small manufacturers, or most
OF them, would be ruined, and the
workmen would be brought to the con
dition which at present drives many
thousands annually from foreign coun.
tries 10 the United States.
Mr.. Bryan mentioned some other
prospective platform declarations
such as, election OF United States
senator's by direct vote, effective lcgis
. latjon against trusts" and "effectiv,
railroad legislation, whatever tina
may mean after what has been dom
along these lines,} reconciliation oi
the differences between capital ant
labor," las If that could be accom-
plished through action Of government,
and opposition to 'imperialism." OF
viously these are mere .paceGllers
since not ore OF them could be made al
issue in the campaign.
Tariff reduction-that is, destructio
OF the protective system upon whicl
the prosperity Of the American peop
rests, which has enabled America
workmen TO secure the best wage
paid anywhere in the worlG-will b
the Democratic party's paramount Il
sue.
