Walter L Smith Tells of Finaucial Legislation in Last Coogress. LOCAL MEN ENTERTAIN THE VISITORS OMcers Elected and Much of I tance is Discussed—Attendance From All Over the Dis- triot is Large. The principal address before the meeting of group 1 of the lowa State Bankers' asso- clation, held yesterday at the Grand hotel, | was that by Congressman Walter 1. Smith, who spoke on the subject, “Financial Legls- lation Proposed and Enacted by the Fifty- seventh Congress.” After stating that there was considerable more legislation pro- posed than was enacted Congressman Smith sald In substance: The most important proposition embodied In law was that establishing the gold standard In the Philippines. There seemed to be but little doubt but that something in this direction ought to be done. The busi- ness of the islands was being conducted upon a silver basis, the Mexican dollar being the chief actual medlum of exchai and the tremendous fluctuations in t price of silver caused such derangement in the revenues as to threaten the bankruptey of the Philippine government There were two very different propositions for remedying this evil. The first, and I think the better, proposition was simply to extend the American monetary system to the islands. “The other was to establish the gold standard in the Philippines, but make the unit of value the peso of grains of standard gold, and to coin a sl ver peso of 416 grains 9-10 fine, each peso to pass as the equivalent of one-half of the American dollar, and imposing upon the Philippine government the burden of maintaining the parity of these silver coins with gold, By this system, adopted, the gold 8 d was established in the islands and at the same time the people were given a coln of substantially the same size and weight of the Mexican dollar and of substantially the same pur- ing power. Three Important B ost important bills proposed durin; the first Fowler bill, the second Fowler bill tnd the Aldrich bill. The first Fowler bill was far too sweeping in charaeter. It sought by a single measure to remedy all the llls, actual and supposed, in the mo tary system. Some of its provisions were wise and some very unwise, and some of those that were wise in the abstract were ot of a character to be sustained by pub- lic sentiment One of the greatest evils of our financlal system is that under the system of green- back redemption the government keeps a large stock of gold on hand and when any one-wishes to export gold he can obtain it by simply demanding it of the treasury without cost for exchange. This Is not true in any other country. Bverywhere else if one wishes to export gold he must seek it and buy it, and this is substantially always attended with trouble and expense of colt Jecting It und with the charge of a small premium for it. The result is that gold goes out of the country when the rate of oxchange on Europe is such s to justify it. but will not ocme back until the rate of American exchange in Europe has gone above the rate of European exchange here which sent it out. The fact that gold thus leaves this country and will.not return when_the conditions are exactly reversed is highly prejudicial to ‘But ti no way by which this <an be avold long as the government maintains a reserve which can be raided sire to export gold. The only way this diffi- culty can be obviated would be to retire the greenbacks and for this the people are not prepared now, if they ever will be. The first' Fowler bill sought such an end. but to offset any benefit that might have been de- rived from this it provided that the silver dollar should be redeemed by the govern- ment, thus making the substantially $600.- M0.000 of ‘siiver the equivalent of 'green- backs, and so defeating any good which might have been obtained from the retire- ment of the greenbacks The second Fowler bill w and contained nothing but a proposition for experimental asset currency. The eastern banks are clamorous for the passage of such & bill, insisting that some such form of emergency currency ls essential to the Telief of the financial situation in times of onetary depression 3 T van at one time much impressed with the desirability of elasticity in the cur- rency, and do not now dispute its advis- ability, although grave doubt ls tbrown upon_ this question by the reflection that there is mo element of elasticity in the British currency system. except such as is cnused by the inflow and outgo of gold. and Under that system Great Britain has for nearly 100 years been conducting, the clear- nouse of the worl I RO desiranility of elasticity In the Surrency the fact remains that asset cur- rency could not under any proposed legls Tation be treated as a part of a hank's Te. serve, gnd the chief difficulty in recen fimes with eastern banks has not been to obfain suffclert loanable funds, but to maintain a sufficlent reserve. The Dusiness Outlook. D. L. Heinshelmer, president of the Mills County National bank of Glenwood, In discussing “The Business Outlook,” said: ve are having the greatest period of lp‘:culnllon ‘the coumtry bas ever known and our greatest danger s from this rtrce. The many industrial and et e sohemes, backed and endorsed by some o our great banks and bankers, has produced @t times extraordinary and high rate: interest and with it all_quarters Wall street, has at different ti gold as much simpler the greatest money center, mes during these years rosperity appealed to all quarters fo A anciel aasistance and the Iast year has been no exception. The reasons given to the country at large was that the money was for temporary purposes and = Was mainly o be used to Assist the great west in_the movement of their crops. 'We a1l know that this is but the natural results of extraordinary promoting and speculation in the industrial and _stock Dusiness that is always in vogue in that | eity, and in the last few y tent that is diarming, ese methods of b mabes the business man and banker shake M= head and prepare for the evil day which is llable o come at a time when all hould be sunshine. *"Po predict what the outlook for the fu- ture {3, 1 am safe in saying that the pres- ent period of general prosperity wiil be followed by a tima of reverses. We can draw a leason from almost every- thing. We can render assistance and alle- | viate financial suffering in the future by | Tecognizing that it is largely with the bankers to assist in modifying conditions. not loaning our depositors funds to the | varfous promoting schemes that will surely Teact and injure values and securities. and we in the end be the greatest sufferers. This can be done by our continuing, as bankers, to do business on business prin- ciples, granting credits to legitimate ers and calling a halt on the promoters of A1l kinds of schemes who make it & busi fess to do great things on other pedples money and their own cheek And last, but not least, by refusing to loan our names to these illegitimate en- terprises.

It has been settled that Mayor lMorgnn will pitch the first innings for the city officlals and Court Reporter Bruington will be the twirler for the county officlals. Congressman Smith will be asked to act as umpire and he will be promised a bodyguard of Sheriff Cousins and his force of deputies.

There are only four men in the world who may be sald to have a world-wide reputation as clowns. Three of this num- ber will be in Council Bluffs, Monday, June 22, the date of the exhibition of the Great Wallace Shows. They are Moore, Chris Livingston and Park Byers, who are th incipal funmakers with Wal- lace. They are ably assisted by twenty other men who are equally as ridiculous. When intermingling with citizens on the street, neither Moore, Livingston or Byers would be suspected of wearing the loose | robes of a fool, but when they are in the ring with thelr makeups on, they laugh and the crowd laughs with them trio this, and they have to unload, at least temporarily, from the minds of thousands The funmaking department of the Great Wallace Show is fully up to the high standard of its other departments, in fact, many a person will testify to the statement that the antics of the clowns with this show are worth the price of admission. the cares Boy Meets with Bad Accident.
