THE
HAMILTON
NATIONAL
BANK -

Off bright and early to pay
some debts; among others the
Income Tax, which turned my
thoughts to the great Alexander
Hamilton who, as Receiver
General Of Continental taxes,
originated a new system Of Ma
tional taxation in 1851. A letter
to Robert Morris, Superintend-
ent of Finance, ON the estab-
lishment of a National Bank
induced Morris to offer Hamil-
ton the post Of Receiver-Gen-
eral.
When Alexander Hamilton was
but "a years old, he had at
tanned a foremost place among
the great men of his day by his
natural abilities and capacity
for leadership. The activity Of
Hamilton's mind is seen in the
fact that while still in active
military service he found time
to study the great questions of
governm ent and finance.
George Washington was inaug-
urated President in April, 1889,
and in September. 1889, Con-
gress passed an act establishing
a Treasury Department. WASH
ington at once made Hamilton
the first Secretary Of the Treas
ury Department, provided for .
funded system and . sound
system Of national taxation,
authorized methods for the
establishing Of a National Bank
and q Mint, and the purchase
of West Point by the govern
ment. With these stimulating
thoughts, I turned into the

corner of Wisconsin and M
Streets, to transact my business,
and was greeted by Mr.. G. w.
