The Baltimore Plan, now practically endorsed by President Cleveland, is a trading universal attention because it is based on the evic nt fact that the currency and banking systems of the counti must be reformed. But is the Baltimore plan a reform? It give the associated banks the power to expand the cun t ncy and relieve the country. It also gives them the power to jontract it at will and create widespread distress for their <n -n private gain. It puts the credit of the gc eminent behind every bank note. It donates all but hal of one per cent of the profit on the note issue of the banks. ; nd it leaves plenty of opportunities for a Napoleon of Fi t ance to wreck a bank and leave the government to pay toe notes. It leaves the banks free to demand the highest interest that the several states will allc w, and afford no relief to farmers and business men of moderate capital. Contrast with this THE HILL BANKING SYSTEM. In “Money Found,” an exceedingly valuable and instructive book. Hon. Thomas E. Hill proposes that the govern* ment open its own bank in every large town or county seat in the United States, pay 3 per cent on long time deposits, receive deposits subject to check without interest, and loau money at the uniform rate as 4 per cent to every one offering security worth double the amount of the loan. This plan is not an expense to the government, but a source of large revenue. It secures the government amply, which the Baltimore plan does not. It relieves the distress of the common people, which the Baltimore plan does not. It protects not only note-holders but depositors, who are unsecured now under the Baltimore plan would be still worse off. In a word, the Baltimore plan is in the interest of the ' bankers, the Hill Banking System is iu the interest of the people. Consider them both, and ask your congressman to vote : for the ©ne you believe in.
