open tions made against the stamp duty was in the expense and the extensive chinery for collection That was answered by providing a cheap and plo process for both dork in the Treasury Department fur a tendent of the business and the clerks of the Federal Courts 10 oat tho which they received from tho Treasury The amount of the duty and whether it should apply to or only to those to be suppressed

tho hard money currency which the founders of our Government had secured its they believed for us The plan of that restoration and vation consisted of five parts 1 To revive the gold currency by cor- recting he erroneous of 1791 2 To create a demand for hard money by making it the exclusive currency of the Federal Treasury 3 To make sure of this hard money by keeping it in its own treasuries 4 To suppress all per under by a stamp duly 5 To wind up all defaulting banks by a bankrupt law against delinquents The three of these five parts were accomplished and to these we are in for twenty years
