pound print of what Hirt is alleged
to have sold for butter, and found
that the supposed butter was olco-
margarine. An analysis of the alleged
butter by the food and drug division
of the State health department con-
firmed this.

employed in the Office of Health Off
Ger Cotton had purchased three
pounds of it. Hirt was taken into
custody by Patrolman Cannon. Ac-
eording to the latter Hirt. who says
he is employed as a salesman for

chased at about sixteen cents per
pound. while Hirt received thirty

to have disposed of several hundred
pounds on his weekly visits here. Hirt

BANK SYSTEMS OF
TODAY ARE CRUDE
Administration Currency Plan
the Only Remedy, Says Dover
Trust Cashier. :

DOVER, Dec. 12.-The American
banking system and its defects was
the informal topic of discussions by
Charles Hart and f. w. Rosevear, at
the meeting of the Port Dram Social
and Literary Club last night 1t was
intended that the program was to be
a debate on the topic: Resolved,
That Our Government Should Estab-
lish Central Bank" but as only
two of the speakers were present the
informal discussion was the result.
Mr.. Hart reviewed the central bank
system in vogue in the nineteenth
century, and Mr.. Rosevear, who is
cashier of the Dover Trust Company,
Ndiscussed the present banking sys-
tenn and it's application to individual
conditions
In part Mr.. Rosevear said that our
banking system was crude and
wholly inadequate to meet conditions
of emergency, such as occurred in
1907, and which are liable to occur at
any time. In the panic of 1907 he
said that many of the smaller banks
throughout the country had more
money in their vaults than at any
time in their existence. Public conf
dence was gone and for self-preser-
walton the banks were compelled to
hoard all the money which come to
them. In the event of any consider
able number of their depositors de-
handing their money and the bank
was short of cash it was impossible
to secure it either through the sale
of securities or borrowing. Therefore
it was necessary to maintain a cash
reserve sufficient to meet all de-
mands.
The result of this noardii g Of cash
by banks was the creation of a
money stringency that paralyZed
business and sent call loans in New
York up to $45 per $1,000. He said
that what was needed at such times
Vas some kind of a central reserve
agent where banks could obtain
funds on short notice in case of I'M
usual demand. This woul1 avoid the
necessity of individual bail hoard
ing cash for self-protection, and the
money now retained in the vaults
could then be released for circula-
ton and the individual banks would
only carry their usual reserve
funds.
Mr. Rosevear contended that this
would do much toward arresting
panics and would provide the means
for carrying an legitimate business
at all times.

market at less than cost price, II

ought to encourage them rather than
bar them out To get something for

and no proprietor could continue in
business for long IL he persisted in
giving his product away or selling it
at loss. 1t may happen occasionally
that a producer finds unstable stock
in his hands which he must sell at a
sacrifice; but bargains are much more
likely to be snapped up by buyers at

1t Is true that many American manu-
facturers have sold, and are continu-

prices in foreign lands than in the do

the extent to which the American pub

The passing of the tariff bill by the
senate means the success of warfare
against special privilege started by
Grover Cleveland-a success which
seemed on the verge of attainment 10
years ago, but which was turned into
defeat through treachery.
In 1894 the Wilson bill as it passed
the house by majority of 76 was a
creditable measure. It was notable
for it's extension of the free list, which
included coal, iron ore, lumber, wool
