BANK ACCEPTANCES.

New York banks make enormous
loans to the stock market because
there is no other large market in
which they may use the funds that
pour into New York from all over the
country. The New York bankers
would gladly cut down their loans to
spectators if there could be provid-
ed broad field for short-time COM
mercial investments. Since the de-
posits of a commercial bank are pay.
able on demand, bank must keep the
mass of it's investments liquid; for
this reason New York banks now loan
hundreds of millions to Wall Street,
because these loans are largely pay.

loan. Our laws prohibit acceptances
by national banks. The proposed re-
form of our banking laws makes ac-
ceptances legal The introduction of
the use of acceptances in this country
would not only greatly restrict the
present dangerous practice of loaning
reserve money of country banks in
Wall Street, but it would promote the
industry and trade of the country by
lowering interest rates and broaden
ing the commercial loan market.
A European bank, DESTROYS of facili-
tating the purchase of goods by one of
it's business customers, authorizes the
seller of the goods to reimburse him
self by drawing on the bank bill of
exchange, payable in 60 or 80 days
When the seller of the goods delivers
them, he presents the draft, across
the face of which the bank writes,
Accepted adding its signature and
the date. By this operation the bank
does not advance money; it merely
makes itself responsible for the pay
ment of the bill of exchange, looking
from the sale of the goods. BY this
operation the buyer gets time to sell
the goods before he has to pay for
them. and the seller gets for his goods
bankers promise to pay-a bank
guaranteed bill, which he can imme-
dately sell in the discount market.
This is the security in which the
great banks of Europe invest a large
part of their funds, instead of in stock
exchange loans, as our banks are com
PEELED to do. The lack of acceptances
in this country results in the creation
of mass of promisory notes, for the
payment of which the borrowers are
alone responsible. These promissory
notes remain dead assets in the banks
until they are paid; acceptances, on
the contrary, being guaranteed by
banks. have wide market, and are
more desired by European banks than
government bonds.
English, French, German. Dutch
Russian and Austrian banks invest in
/ acceptances in other countries thar
their own but they do not care for the
promissory notes of individual Ameri
can business men of whom they have
lnever heard. When We legalize banl
acceptances, as is proposed, we vii
open our money market for huge in
vestment of foreign funds in Ameri
can bills, and thus gain for our do
nestle trade the advantage of the low
European rates of interest-Bankinl

E. H. ALEXANDER
Alternate From Lincoln County Will
Go to Baltimore as peleaate
at Large.

Jackson, Miss, June 6.-State Sena-
tor G. A. Hobbs of the eighth district
will be the delegate to the Baltimore
convention in place of Hon. G. H.
Alexander. He was one of the four
alternates elected for the delegates
for the state at large The death of
Mr.. Alexander made a vacancy, and
there has been a good deal of specu-
iation as to how it would be filled, the
concensus of opinion being that the
four alternates from the state at large,
should settle the matter among them
selves. This has been done. Lieut.
Gov. Bilbo,one of the alternates, will
not go to Baltimore, as Gov. Brewer
is going Bilbo is for Hobbs Hobbs
is for himself, and Douglass Robinson
has also agreed that Hobbs shall have
his vote, and that settles the matter
Hobbs is Woodrow Wilson man, but
II course, is bound by the instructions
in the primary and of the state con-
vention and it is a bit of a coincidence
that Mr.. Alexander whose place he
will fill, was also an ardent admirer
OF the New Jersey executive.

CHICKS NEED A DINNER-BELL.

In every hatch there are usually
some chicks which march right up to
the feed and water and eat and drink
without trouble; but there are always
others which hold back and crowd in
the corners of the brooder or stand
around "peeping" and refuse to pay
any attention to the food. 1t is a
good plan to separate the chicks that
will not eat from the rest and place
them in a small Enclosure by them
selves.
Then scatter some of the fed over
a shingle and with one finger tap the
single gently in the food, making a
sound like the tap-tap of chickens
beak. Most of the chicks will run
toward the sound even when they will
make no effort to eat. Keep up the
tapping, and some of the chicks which
were crowded away from the food in
the brooder will go to eating of their
own accord now that they have more
room, and every chick that gets a bite
will have several others watching and
initiating it.-Farm and Home.

lectures which he delivered to his

basis of a number of works which
rank as classics in the law. Notable
among these are his Commentaries

States" This work was published in
1888 and was dedicated to Chief Jus

be said to be.indispensable to the

lucidity, impartiality and breadth of

superior, if indeed it has any equal
among the innumerable subsequent
publications on the framework of
American constitutional law
We are led to refer to Story on the
constitution at this time by reason of
a striking passage in the second vol
ume, which is so appropriate to the
discussion aroused by Colonel Roose-

is the will, the deliberate will, of the
people. They have declared under

people no one doubts the propriety of
the doctrine in its true and original

RECREATION FOR FARM YOUTH.

Cleveland, o., June 5.-Recreation
for rural communities will be the main
theme of the international recreation
congress opened in Cleveland today
by the Playground and Recreation AS
ISOLATION of America. The rural trav-
cling library, contests in gardening,
corn clubs, athletics, boy scout activi-
ties and camp fire girls will be con
sidered, and various forms of musical
and dramatic play activities that have
been developed in rural districts in
different parts of the country will be
presented.
This question of rural recreation
has come prominently to the front
in the last year, and has it's economic
as well as humanitarian aspects. 1t
is believed that the attractions of the
city for the young men and women of
the farm can be greatly lessened if
rural life is made more attractive
The high cost of living is declared to
be in part attributable to the concen.
tration Of populat on in the cities.
Joseph Lee Of Boston, is president
of the Playground and Recreation AS
ISOLATION of America, and the speakers
on the program include Jane Adams
of Hull House, Chicago Jacob Riis OF
New York, and Prof. l.. Fl. Bailey OF
