NATIONAL BANK LAW.
The greatest liquidation of the
national debt, which will call in
the government bonds, will of
course necessitate the replacing of
some other securities for the na
tional banks. This fact, coupled
with a growing demand from the
people to be relieved from the bur
densome expense of the national
hanking system, demands someac
tion from congress upon the sub
ject. A bili has been offered by
Wilkins, of Ohio, and an amend
ment by Dunn, of Arkansas, that
seems to have merit in it. The
Chronicle says :
"The amendment permits any
national banking association to de
posit gold and silver bullion with
the .treasurer or assistant treasurer
of the United States, in amounts of
not less than $10,000, and to re
ceive therefor certificates in de
nominations of $o, $10,20. 50,100
or $500, receivable in all parts of
the United States for customs, tax
es and all public dues, and legal
tender for all debts except where
coin is expressly stipulated. The
amendment also includes the stop
page of the monthly coinage of sil
ver dollars under the Bland bill,
and authorizes the secretary of the
treasury to cause coinage from time
to time of standard silver dollars
and gold coins, from bullion depos
ited under this act, in amounts
sufficient to supply any demand
that may arise for coin circulation
or to pay coin obligations of the
government.
It cannot be said with certainty
from a mere telegraphic summary
of such a bill what its precise ob
ject or ultimate purpose may be :
but it seems to be the result of an
amicable an angenient between the
national bank men and the silver
men. ,The national banking sys
tern appears ta have gained a firm
foothold in the east,and it does not
seem practical at this time, even
were it wholly desirable, to dis
lodge it. On the other hand, it i
seems to be universally accepted in
the United States that it is best for
the nation that silver shall not be
demonetized; and so a middle
ground appears to have been sought
whie i shall afford standing-ground
f- both interests, the silver inter
est and the national bank inter
est." The feature of the amendment
that Trill commend itself, is that
there will be no tax upon the peo
ple to pay the interest that the se
curity bonds now on deposit draw.
The bullion not being subject to in
terest. The legislatures find some
means to relieve the people from
the burdens of the present banking
system, but still retain the present
secure plan of redeeming the circu
lation. The people want the se
cure bank circulation but they do
not want to have to pay too high
for it.
The Chronicle thinks the inter,
national exposition, which will be
held in Washington in 1892 to com
memorate the four-hundredth anni
versary of the discovery oi Ameri
ca, should surpass that of 187r,
which was by all odds the most
effective affair of the kind ever held
up to that time. - The people of the
United States should be able to
to show that thev have made a
great deal of progress in the inter
val between 1876 a...! 1S92. Which
is certainly the case, for the centen
nial exposition gave a great impe
tus to the mechanical arts ot our
country.
Perhaps as deserving an object
as appeals to Congress for aid may
be found in the one mentioned in
disDatches from Albuquerque, New i
Mexico, which states that work on
the preliminary survey for the Me-
6a canal will be begun at once, j
This canal is to be thirty feet wide
at the top and eighteen feet at the ;
bottom, with, a depth of six f :eV
and to run a distance of 142 miles,
tapping the Rio Grande at a point
north Ot the Jornada aei iUeeilO,
and reioinillg the river at a point
' J
below El Paso, Texas. Immense
storage reservoirs are to be built
along the line of this gigantic irri
gating ditch, and the supply of
water will be practically without
limit. It is estimated that at least
1,500,000 acres of land now wholly
useless will be reclaimed and
brought under cultivation by means
of the water supplied from this
canal. Works of this kind certain
ly deserve a recognition at the
hands of congress, and promise
more actual benefit than building
navies or erecting immense fortifi
cations. The actions of our public servants
in the capital is a subject of inter
est, but whether the Alta 1 a? truly
photographed them or not is a
question. Probably its machine
took them ' a little away when it
says that the attitudes and occupa
tions of U. S. senators, while en
gaged in intellectual incubation
make an interesting study. One
sits in his chair on his shoulder
blades and rolls paper in his
finger. Another chews a string,
probably to prove the pudding.
A third twhl.s his senatorial
thumbs, and a fourth uses the
most distant spittoon as a target.
Of Sandwich Islanders the Alta
says : The Maoris of Kew Zealand
are believed to be the finest of abo
riginal races. They are rapidly
civilizing. They are now Maori
members of the colonial parlia
ment. They are natural orators,
and addreas the body in their own
language, the government furnish
ing interpreters. The Maoris are
very industrious, and get rich by
practicing the arts and following
the callings of civilizatian.
iRrsii wants to reform the youth
of our country and gets at it thus
ly : The youth of this country ,long
ago, committed to memory a great
historical fact in this form :
"Humpsy duuipsy. col. Johnson
Ki'led Tecumseh "
But now it is shown by some
digger in old records that Col.
Whitely helped do it. Therefore,
we must add :
".Uiithtly, lii'htly, Col. White'v
Ki led him sliijntlv."
