LEGISLATION ON CURRENCY. HepublU-aua Kcar lo I'aah It Before. Ihr i:lertloa Itrlalaa Ihr Hnnh. The Aldri. h bill, hacked by thcltockefcllers, wUl perhaps not be pushed to a vote In the coming congress. The republican leaders know that such legislation Is unpopular and will postpone the bill until after the national election. The same course will also be followed with the asset currency Fowler bill, and for the same reason. If the democrats carry the next national election, those two bille will never more be heard of, for both are entirely at variance with denxoratlo ideas of finance. The A Id rich bill proposes to loan to the banks the surplus money In the treasury at a loa- rate of interest, which the bank will loan to the people at a high rate of interest. The most obnoxioua result of the passage of such a measure would M that the batiks would constantly be the champious of high taxation. The more taxes collerti d from the pt ople, the larger the surplus and the greater amount of cheap money the bankn would get. The democrat a would reverse the pro

position by reducing taxes, the tariff, and onlj- collect enough taxes to run the iivernment honestly administered. The national hanks now have over $166,000,000 of the surplus and the adminUtratioa is continually increasing the amount. Th b , .s arp rrvlnir for more, as well panic. The banks have loaned this vast sum to the stock brokers and others with railroad ar.d trust stoek ascoiiati ia! and It would require the calling of thrseloarn - that is. the pa nu nl by the stock brokers and othersand this they could not do unless they should be able to borrow a similar amount elsewhere. If these borrowers of the banks could not pay when called on the collateral would be sold and forced sales of this character are pretty sure to reduce the market price of tho stock gold and thus inaugurate a panic Tin re is another provision in the Aldrich bill lhat the bauks are anxious to aeiomplish. The law now requires that Fntted Statts bonds shall be deposit-d w.ih the Flitted States treasbanks lo hhVM their notes without any security, oth r than the general assets of the bank? teian amount equal tothelr capital stock.
