Divide this total of 100000 by
thirty, the number of days in the month,
and we get $4,000, the average daily
balance in the bank for the month.
Figured on this daily balance plan,
and on basis of two 'per cent interest,
this account would earn, for the month of
April, 1888. The same account, for
the same month, figured on the lowest
days balance in the month, which was
$1,000, and at the same rate of interest,
would>earn exactly $500, or 1888 less
than by the other systematic full
measure system of figuring interest. BY
the one plan this account would earn
more than fifteen times the interest it
would earn by the other plan.
With interest at three per cent, this
account would earn $4,000 for the month
on the one plan, as against $500 on the
other-the rate of interest in both cases
being the same. ..
This example IS a perfectly natural
one, a perfectly straightforward repre-
sentation of facts. There is nothing weird
or peculiar about it. Many accounts
might show greater disparity in the two
systems of figuring interest, many might
show less. 1t would all depend on the
fuctuation of the daily balances, how
low the amount and how high the,
amount.
The fact of the matter is that figuring
interest on the very lowest days balance
of the month, taking that amount as the
sum on which interest for the month is
computed, regardless of how big the bal
ances on other days, is not figuring inter
est on monthly balances at all. To say
that interest is paid on monthly balances,
figuring it in this way, is to say what is
not the fact. Figuring interest in this
way, on the lowest days balance of the
month, is to figure it on A DAYS BAL
ANCE, not on monthly balances.

If you have any money on deposit in
The Munsey Trust Company it will draw
interest on the average balance for the
month, at three per cent if it be check
ing account, and four per cent if it be
savings account. For example, if your
balance is $1,000 one day and $4,000 the
next, the average balance of these two
days would obviously be $1,000. The
$4,000 and $4,000 added together make
$4,000. Divide the $4,000 by two-the
number of days-and you get an average
of $4,000.
This same principle of getting at the
average balance holds equally true for
thirty days or any number of days. 1t is
on the average balance that The Munsey
Trust Company pays interest. The Num-
sey Trust Company is the only banking
concern in Washington, if my inforrna-
ton is correct, that figures interest on the
daily balance system, which means the
average balance.
A system in vogue in Washington is
to take the lowest days balance of the
month as the amount on which to figure
interest for the montt-this, or other
methods that minimize interest earnings.
Few persons outside of the banking
fraternity have any worthwhile idea of
the subtleties and niceties of handling in
terest-so handling it as to smash broad.
side in the interest rate.
Let me give you an example of two
different systems-an example that will
be revelation and a sensation to you.
Here is an account showing an average
daily balance of $4,000 for the month
of April-a thirty-day month. The
amount opposite each date represents each
days balance after deducting checks
drawn and adding deposits:

Banks should adopt the daily balance plan
of figuring interest, which is the only right
way of computing interest, and then square
their rate of interest to this system.

LEADING politicians of the State OF
New York, sitting as high court of i'm
parchment, last Friday declared Cover
nor William Sulzer guilty of making false
statements OF campaign contributions, of
perjury in swearing that the statements
were true, and of suppreSsing testimony
by deceit, fraud and threats. His i'm
parchment followed and he was sum-
marily removed from office.
All this was done at the instance OF
Charles F. Murphy, the corrupt head OF
the still more corrupt Tammany Hall or
ganization OF New York City.
Sulzer may be, and probably is, guilty
OF all the above charges, and maybe
more, but it is outrageous that he should
be ruined by order OF a man OF Murphy's
character.
In a statement issued a few days ago
Sulzer called the tribunal which found
him guilty "Murphy's high court of in
fanny" and referred to his impeachment
as political lynching. He declares that
he was bounded out of office because he
refused TO permit Murphy to dictate his
appointments and run the office of Cow
ernor in the interest Of the gang of politi-
cal crooks represented by Tammany Hall.
Few persons will doubt that he tells
he truth in this respect.

ALMOST without exception the news
papers which refer to the attack made by
Congressman Hobson upon Congressman
Underwood condemn the former very
severely. We suspect that if they had
taken the trouble to read the debate in
Congress they might change their minds.
Capt. Hobson has the laudable ambition
to be Senator from Alabama, as has
Mr.. Underwood, and there are naturally
serious differences between them. Cap
tain Hobson felt that il was up to him to
speak plainly upon the situation, and he
did so-not in secret, either, for he sent
word to Mr.. Underwood that he desired
him to be present when he made his re-
marks. With courage and calmness Cap
tain Hobson made his charges, and with
out backing down a particle he stood by
his guns and maintained his position; and,
looking at the matter impartially, it APP
pears to us as though he had the better
OF Mr.. Underwood in the warm debate
that made such interesting reading.
Mr.. Underwood is a big man and
splendid public servant-but so is Cap
tain Hobson.
