What the Republican Administrations Have Done—Also What the Democrats ‘Want to Do—A Few Words About Wild- cat Money. {Special Correspondence.] New York, Oct. 24.—One subject that may be of interest to the voter in discus- sing the issues of the campaign is that of national bank currency as compared with state bank currency, which the Democratic party proposes by its plat- form to re-establish. A comparison of the losses by depositors, noteholders, and all creditors of national banks in the last thirty years with depositors and noteholders of private banks is startling. An examination of the losses through national banks since they were estab- lished in 1863 shows that the annual average loss to depositors and other creditors during the entire period has only been one-twentieth of 1 per cent. of the entire liabilities of the national banks. The comptroller of the currency showed in his report of 1891 that the: losses by failures of private banks throughout the country amounted ina single year—1890—to $17,477,419, which exceeds by far the total losses by the national banks since their establishment in 1863. This shows the contrast be- tween the condition of the national banks and the private banks of today. Looking back to the history of private banks when they were permitted to issue currency, the contrast isstill more strik- ing. Thompson’s Bank Note Reporter for October, 1859, shows the failure of no less than 1,547 banks between Aug. 24 and Nov. lof 1857. Another authority, The Elliott Funding System, reports that in the year of 1841 fifty-fivestate banks, with an aggregate capital of $67,036,265, and a circulation of $23,577,752, failed, and that in nearly every instance the en- tire capital and circulation were lost. Thompson's Bank Note Reporter of Nov. 14, 1858, reports the notes of all banks in Arkansas, Florida, Iowa and Mississippi of doubtful and only nomi- nal value, and the notes of all banks in Wisconsin at a discount of 9 per cent., those of Virginia from 9 to 25 per cent., those of Nerth Carolina 12 per cent., those of Ohio and Indiana from 6 to 50 per cent., and those of Illinois from 9 to 50 per cent. This is the sort of money to which the Democratic party wants to return. Word comes from Washington that the public debt statement which is to be issued a few days hence will show a continuation of the reduction of the public debt. The complaints made against the Republican party by the Democrats regarding its expenditures of public funds may be recognized-as an unjust one by every man who stops to consider what the Republican party in its administration of the government has done. Since 1865, when it set itself seriously about the task of paying off th® public debt, which a war waged by the Democratic party had piled up, it has reduced the indebtedness from $78 per capita to $13 per capita, and re- duced the public debt from $2,756,000,000 to $600,000,000, in round numbers. Such arecord for any party or any govern- ment is unheard of in the history of nations. The record of the present administra- tion in relation to the finances of the country compares favorably with any which has preceded it in the long line of Republican administrations, and con- trasts in a marked degree with the Dem- ocratic administration during the four years prior to the inauguration of Presi- dent Harrison. The Democratic charge that this administration has dissipated a surplus which the Cleveland administra- tion created in the treasury is shown to be false by the fact that the so called surplus has been expended six times over by President Harrison’s administration in the reduction of the bonded debt. Another subject relating to the finances of the government about which a good deal of talk has been made is the amount of money in circulation. In thisconnec- tion it may be interesting to compare the conditions in this country with those in others. A careful study of the finances of the world shows that among the na- tions who count their population with eight figures, or, in other words, among the nations whose population is over 10,- 000,000 of people, only one has as large an amount of money per capita of the population as has the United States. The amount of money in circulation in the United States is $25.62 per capita, of which $10.57 is gold, $8.55 silver and $6.51 paper. Free trade Great Britain, after which the Democrats are anxious to pattern, has but $17.90 per capita. Germany has even less, $16.40 per capita. Anstro-Hungary has still less, $9.52 per capita. The per capita amount of money in circulation in the United States is deuble the average per capita amountin the great nations of the world having a population of 10,000,000 or more. Men whose business has been estab- Uphed in the past thirty years will not vote for a sweeping change in the busi- ess system of the country. A vote for Geveland means Democratic control of presidency, house and senate, and the impuguration of a policy just the reverse of that under which your business pros- perity has been established. Your vote muy decide the question. ‘The Democrats when last in control of ai branches of the government, 1856-€0, plotted its destruction. They are now Plotting to destroy its three vital prinei- ples—protection, reciprocity and sound money—if they get control of all its branches in the coming election. Your vote may determine whether they will do this or not.

Sickles at DEMOCRATS LEAVING THEIR PARTY IN LARGE NUMBERS. Thousands of Democrats Announce Theit Conversion to Republicanism —-The Tariff, the National Bank Law and Other Features Drive Them Out. [Special Correspondence.} New York, Oct. 10.—According to the Democratic national committee Great Britain has grown tired of her free trade and is about to put a tariff on certain American products upon the American protective theory. . The liter- ary bureau of the Democratic headquar- ters announces that the English parlia- ment will as soon as it meets pass an act placing a tariff on American wheat, for the double purpose of getting even with the United States for our high tariff duties and at the same time protecting British colonists and Bri interests in wheat growing Australia, Canada and India. Thusit seems that the British are actively co-operating with the Democrats of this country to try to ers of the United States into voting against Republican doctrines of protec- tion, while at the same time the admitting their value by pr i adopt them for the benefit of British col- onists whom they propose to pi t against United States farmers. It is not believed that this joint attempt of the British and the Democratic par bluff the farmers into voting the De cratic ticket will be a success. Democrats Badly Alarmed. The fact is the Democrats have be- come very much alarmed about the situation. They have received reports from the west which conv that the stories of prospective D cratic success in the western s the merest moonshine.

The South and the Soldiers. While upon this subject of the tude of southern Democrats t Union soldiers, it may be interes quote something from the Lync (Va.) News as an evidence of the r feeling of the southern Democrats to- ward the old soldiers. Speaking of the possibility that the outbreak of cholera might interfere with the Grand Army encampment at Washington that paper said: “If that is all the harm the chol- era might do, we think the nation will be benefited by its appearance, fur we think it is high time that these camp meetings of the G. A. R. were broken up and discontinued. They and are designed to keep ali tional divisions and animosit out of the war and to promo terests of the Republican party.

Her health apidly, and became s9 bad that in May last it was determined that she could not stand the heavy air at the sea shore house at Cape May Point, and that the mountain air would prove more bene. ficial.
