REMARKS OF MB. WAITERS, OF I'UTSAM COUNTY, In benate, February, 1845; the question being 0it the passage of the Bank Bill, Mr. WAITERS said : . The question now pending is one of no ordinary importance to the people of the State. This bill, if enacted into a law and placed upon the statute book, will change the whole policy of the Stato. The major ity of the committee on Banks and the Cur rency presented it to the Senate, as a mea sure of relief, and as such its friends have advocated it. This has been the plea of bankers for the last century and a half. The aristocracy ot bnsland, when wanting ex clusive privileges, raised the cry of relief to the people, and, by their plausible promises, induced that government to grant them cor- porate rights, promising to extinguish the small debt resting upon the government. At the time of the incorporation of the Go vernors and Directors of the Bank of Eng land, the government owed some four or 1 1 n ..i:n I.: -i. i i : creased by that measure of relief to the en ' wuiivua Hiviiiuei n.a.v.l una usou til ormous sum of eight hundred millions sterling, and every child bora within the kingdom is heir to a debt of 32 sterling. Like banks of modern days, before the suspension of 1797 the Bank of England, with other banks in every principal town, greatly expanded tneir circulation, so that there were men in very town and country village to loan the debts of the banks. Even the workshops of trie mechanics were converted into the ser vice of bankers, to loan their promises, and what was the result f The people became insane, and ran into all manner of specula tion men forsook their honest callings, and the people, as well as government, became indebted beyond their means to pay. Con traction followed. The banks could not pay their debts, and consequently the people could not pay theirs. Bank influence pro , cured the enactment of a law authorizing a general suspension. Bank papor deprecia ted; whole communities becamo bankrupt; and genera) distress prevailed. Such was , the result of paper money in England. The few ate Ur the siihatnnr'a nf ihn mnnv Wo have had paper money, or paper promises of amerent names and denominations. The cry of relief was raised in this country in 1781, and for this purpose the Bank of North America was incorporated. Did it bring the relief promised? No. In less than five years its charier was repealed. This experi ment was not enough. In 1700 Congress incorporated a JNational bank to relieve the government and people; but m place of be coming a source of relief, it became a poli tical engine, corrupting and subverting the It berties of the people, so that Mr. Jefferson's administration disposed of the government stocK, and in 1811 Congress refused to re new its charter, and the people approved of tneir act. Bui when bankers could not ob tain from the general government the right xo tmnaie community, tney flocked to the Slate Legislatures for those rights, and with the plausible promise of relief, thev were only too successful. Local banks snrun un in every state, and in 1816 more relief was . - . . . needed. Another National Bank was incor porated by Congress. The local banks which had expanded their circulation found it necessary to contract it,and the circulation was less after the creation of the National Bank than before. The local banks could not redeem their notes suspension and de preciation followed, and from 1816 to 1820 bank explosions followed in close succession, leaving their notes in the hands of the peo ple, of less value than the rags of which the paper was made. Distress entered almost every dwelling, and bankruptcy was com mon. The Bank of the Uuited State went into operation on the first day of January 1817, and from that time until 1822, the State which held this monster within its bo som, was but one continued scene of bank ruptcy, suffering and ruin. In 1819 or '20 the sufferings of the people became so intol erable as to call for legislative interposition, and committees were appointed in bbth branches of the Pennsylvania Legislature to report the facts, as well as some form of re lief. One f these committees, headed by the celebrated Wm J. Duane, to whom whiggery voted a Service of plate for bis re fusal as Secretary of the Treasury to remove the deposits under Gen. Jackson, traced the bankruptcy . and ruin of the people, and of the State, directly to the issue of bank pa per by the local banks, aided by the Bank of the United States. These banks, like the one now under consideration, were charter ed with the plausible pretext of relief to the people; but instead of relieving the people, they plunged them into bankruptcy, distress ana ruin, xne racis ot wmch 1 speak are lo be lound in the bank history of the court- try, and I would warn Senators that like causes will again produce like effects. But this was not all. This same National Bank which had been created, as was said by its advocates, for the relief of the govern ment and people, sought to corrupt Congress by loaning its debts to the people's represen tatives; and, though it bad been styled an agent of the government, it assumed to it self the mastery. It sought and succeeded in' corrupting the public press, and poured out its funds like water for electioneering .. I . T nOrt nt lurpusea; uui iu ioou us career ot profliga cy was cut short. Ahdbkw Jacks.;, aided by the Presidential veto, stopped its career, lie refused his assent to a renewal of its corporate rights, and the sovereign people sustained him; and now it is only spoken of as a imng mamas Deen. in 1841 a National Bank was advocated by the friends of the majority on this floor, but it received the fin ishing blow.. It is dead, without hope of a resurrection of its corporate existence. from the year 1825 to 1835 the relief doctrine was sounded by bankers, and local banks like the frogs of Egypt were to be found all over the State. Like those that had gone before them, they expanded for a time, but in May 1837 a contraction followed, with suspension and depreciation. : In 1838- j '9, after a brief resumption, suspension of specie payments again ensued; Deprecia tion, as a natural consequence, followed, and iu 1840 and Ml, whilst the banks and their party had the control of the State, these paper shops exploded and blew up, not being able, in the bosom of their frienSs. lo exist any longer under their own corrupt management. Explosion after explosion took' place, so that, out of from 70 to 100 corpo rations which issued notes of promise, but 21 existed in 1842, ajt the time the resump tion law took effect, the others having sunk beneath their own corruption. , , Whenever we have had bank expansions, the people have entered into speculation and become indebted, as in England. In 1S42, when the banks in Ohio were all suspended, we found around the Capitol bank Presidents, bank Cashiers, bank Directors, bank stock holders, bank Attorneys and bank creditors, and the whole federal party in the General Assembly, opposing a resumption of specie payments. But the democracy triumphed, and what was the result?. The paper of banks which had depreciated from ten to twenty per cent, rose within a cent or two of par; and whatever improvement has been made to make bank paper more valuable or safe to the holder, the people owe it to the democratic party. Whilst the opposition have been the advocates of the banks, we have been the advocates of the rights of the people. In 1842, the Legislature, looking back and seeing the desolation and ruin brought about by the banks, passed a Genorul Bank ing Law. less susceptible of abuse bv the bankers, and more safe to the noteholders. In 1843 that law underwent soma amend ments, and several banks were brought un der its provisions. The banks thus brought un der the provisions ot the General Banking Law, seeing that their privilege to swindle was curtailed, joined with the whole 'whig party in denouncing the law as impracticable, in order to obtain a more general license to swindle the people and the State. Mr: W, said he would call the attention of the Se nate to Some of the provisions ef that law, No loan was to be made for a longer poriod than six months. The Directors -were re quired to make examination of the condition of their banks; the stockholders to be individually liable for all their issues; banks ana oanK oincers not to deal m stocks of any muu, wueiuer oi. ins united eiaies, oi mai vidual States, or of any incorporated compa' ny; and not to receive or retain' more than six per cent, interest. None can deny that these provisions wero 'more in accordance with the wishes of the noteholder, than any ever placed in bank charters in the Slate before. No bank could bo incorporated, un der that law, unless a company was previ ously formed. Not so with the bill under consideration. It contemplates the creation ot trom 60 to too banking companies, with out the General Assembly having knowledge of an individual stockholder. They were not to commence business until all the cani tal was paid in gold and silver not so with the bill before the Senate. If a portion is paid in, the balance will answer in the debts of the stockholders, so that the circulation, to a great extent, is based on debts of stockhol ders, or debts of the State. The stockhold ers and Directors are limited, under tho Ge ncral Banking Law, in their liabilities to- the bank, which are not to exceed from one twelfth to one-thirtieth. Not so with the sys tem under consideration; the stockholders can borrow one-half. That law prohibited bank Presidents, Cashiers, clerks or subor dinate officers from becoming indebted to me banks in any sum whatever: but the bill before the Senate has no restriction of the kind. Under the General Banking Law, no bank could sell its specie, or engage in the business of brokerage the pending bill is without any restraint ot the kind. The Ge neral Banking Law provides punishment or tines tor oiheers violating the provisions of- the law tor their government. The General Banking Law restricts the circulation to the amount of capital stock paid in, all notes put in circulation 10 oe numoereo and registered by an oliicer appointed by the General As sembly. It provides for the punishment of the Kegister, as well as bank oincers, by im prisonment in tho penitentiary, for the viola tion of the law governing them; banks to be inspected by Bank Commissioners; the ex penses to be paid by the banks, which are to be taxed on their capital as other properly; but the bill under consideration proposes to tax only the profits. If it is right and just to tax merely the profits of the banks, then tax only tho profits of the farming interest, and all other interests liable to taxation on the grand duplicate of your State. Were you to tax my constituents according to their pro fits, many of them would pay but a light tax, and such would be the case all over the State. Then why should bankers be thus favored because they have less honesty and modesty than the taxpayers of the State? None but a banker would have the impu dence to ask an exemption of the kind. Another wholesome provision of the Gene ral Banking Law, (if such a thing is possible as to have any. connected with a bank whole some or honest,) is the recording of the names of stockholders by the County Re corders where. the bank is located, and the amount of stock owned by each. Mr. W. asked, why the advocates of the bill before the Senate voted down an amendment which he had offered in order to engrail that whole some provision in this bill i. Why .conceal the character and circumstances of the stockholders from the public eve. The Gene ral Banking Law reserves lo the General As sembly the right to alter, amend or repeal rigiu wnicn ne (Mr. w.i said he would never give up. win the people yield that right to bankers and Shylocks? But the advocates of the bill still keen croaking to the people about relief. What sort of relief do the people want? - Sir, they want to be let alone in their honest nursuits. and in the enjoyment of the rights which God has bestowed upon them, and that bank ers have no exclusive privileges. Mr. W said ho held in his hand a copy of the pre sent Governor's Inaugural; Address; and what docs he say about the prosperity of the people? He (Mr. W.) said he would read a portion ot the address, which was as toiiows " In no period of our history have we had greater cause for gratitude to the Almighty than the present. Our basket and store overflow with fruits; our hands are nerved with might; our feet find rest, and our hearts repose in quiet habitations; eur credit is re spected at home and abroad ; political aspe rities are softening; and the whole popula tion is cheerfully pursuing (he Career of pros perity, education and virtue. In acknow ledging the hand whence all our blessings flow, 1 trust that my voice is in harmony with the hearts of my countrymen. 1 he great inquiry is, how we can retain our rich inheri tance?" Sir, If any regard is to be paid to this do cument and he admitted the truth ot the position just read the people of our grow ing State never occupied so desirable a con dition. Prosperous, happy, and growing in intelligence, a credit that was good at home and abroad. And all this happiness has been brought about while banks and bank paper were going out ot existence! Mr. W. said he would read agaid from the Inaugural Ad dress. On page 6 lie found the following language: "Legislation may vitiate a currency it seldom improves one'. Yet, while our currency is just recovering from an unconstitutional to a constitutional medium, a majority of the committee on Banks and the Currency'present this deform ity ot seventy-three sections to the Senate, and if it becomes a law, then will the Legis lature have vitiated the currency, and legal ized a species of robbery. Yes, they will rob the people of their liberties, a crime that is blacker than any other, for without liberty, even life is a burden. ' - The presentation of this bill to the Senate was one of the most wicked and daring acts ever perpetrated by any man claiming to be a representative of the people of Ohio. And yet it finds advocates with a portion of the representatives of the .free people of this State. . Such a system of banking was never thought of by the great mass of the people, and the passage -of -this-blll would be an act not unlike that perpetrated by Ju das Iscariot, when he sold his master. When banks are created, the people and State bo come indebted, and as banks expire and go out of existence, the people return to their honesty and industry, and extricate them selves from their indebtedness. No maxim has proved truer in the history of this Union than, as the country rises, federalism . and banking sink; as the country sinks, banking and tvderalisrn nso and flourish, such the fact at this lime, in that part of the State which ho (Mr. VV.) had the honor of repre senting. If the people look lo banks for re lief, they will bo disappointed they bring distress, but are never able to give relief, when it is needed. No, sir; they cannot re lieve themselves, and that is what brings dis tress. It has been claimed by bankers and their tools, that the banks have been the great source from whence all our public improve ments have received their aid. iNot so.- The Jjanks have brought debt and ruin upon the people and State; but the industry and energy of the thousands who never owed bank a dollar men who never entered a bank parlor have sustained our government. It is to that class ho looked to wipe out this law it enacted. It is to those unbought spirits we owe our liberty. They always have been safe depositories of equal rights iney always win oe. . -, - The Senator from Franklin (Mr. Kellev says ne is aware mat the amount ot stock , ..... - y proposed in this bill is dangerous, and thinks it should not all be taken; and on another occasion he said, we would alarm the people of the Slate by authorizing too much bank capital. Yet the majority keep increasing it. The Senator from Miami (Mr. O'Fer- rall) says public confidence alone can give eiticar.y io any panning system. Sir, one hundred and fifty years of bank relief and bank robbery, have destroyed public confi dence. Look into our own State treasury, wnicn nas Deen robbed by banks and bank ers. Every county, township, and school district treasury has shared a similar fate. There you can find the paper of the Gallipo- iis uanK, uerman Bank ot Wooster. Farmer's Bank of Canton, Bank of Cleveland, Gran ville Bank, urbanaUank, John Wood's Bank of Hamilton, Miami Exporting Company, and some sixty others, a list of which he had before him. Hut this bill proposes to incor porate the Slate Uank of Ohio and other banking companies. Like all that have gone oeiore it, n Bears a libel on its lace. An in ducement is held out to the people lo place confidence in the notes of these banks, from the tact ot tneir purporting to have been is sued with a view of being redeemed by the State, while the State does no( owe one dol lar ot the capital. Sir, it is robberv to steal the good name of lheState for Ihe purpose of swindling its citizons. Have the people ever decided in favor of such a proposition? No, never; and Ihey possess too much intel ligence ever to approve of it. The maioritv. knowing this, refused to send it to the peo ple for them to decide upon. If it were re ferred to them, they would wipe it out as with a besom of destruction. If the bill is to become a law and remain upon tho sta tute oook, the people may prepare their shoulders for the burden, and their necks for the yoke. The great mass will be hewers of wood and drawers of water. Tho bill contemplates a Stale debt, a favorite doc trine of the federal party, but a stench in tho nostrils of the people. The amendments offered as security to tho bill holders, have all been voted down by the friends of the bill. They have even refused to engraft up on it a provision giving the General Assem bly the right to appoint persons to invesli- gate the banks to bo brought into existence by the passage ot this bill. But tho people will investigate these cor porations; they will put them out of exis teuce. Why, sir, this bill, if enacted into law, authorizes the issuing of over six dol lars in pnpor for one dollar in specie. The history of tho whole paper system shows an utter failure of accomplishing the objects for which lis advocates contend. Mr. W, said, he held that the question of paper mo ney was settled in this country, when the Constitution of the United States was adopt ed. He said he would call the attention the Senate to the first article of the eighth section ot that instrument, which reads follows: "The Congress shall have power to coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin?'1 Again in section ten: No State shall enter into any treaty, alliance or confederation, grant letters of marque and reprisal, com money, emit bills of credit, make any tiling but gold ana silver com tender in payment of debts." What language could have been more explicit. Here was a yielding up, by the States, of the right to emit bills ot credit, and a prohibition, even on the part of tho general government, lo make any thing but gold and silver coin tender In the payment of debts. Is it not evidence of the depravity of man, to see men, sworn to support that constitution, ad vocating the emission of bills of credit, with powers conturred by a law like the one pre posed by the passage of the bill under con sideration. , Mr. W. said, he hold in his hand a note of tho Clinton Bank of Co! imhus, which he would read. It says: 'The Clinton Bank of Cahlmbus will pay ten dollars on demand to E. Jeffords, or bearer," &c. What is this but a bill of credit a plain and palpable violation of tho constitution? And yet this bill creates some eighty or one hun dred similar institutions, that each may issue their bills ot credit, to snow how easy it i to violate that sacred instrument, and how pliable aro- men's consciences, when money is to be made by the transaction Mr. W. said,wero ho to vole for tho bill pen ding before the bennte, it would be treaclic ry to that worthy, un!errified, anti-bank cor. stituency he had the honor to represent. duly ho owed to his conscience, his country and lus Co., would induce him to vo against the bill. JIo said he felt thankful that he was able to be in his place, not only to vo'.e against tho bill, but to protest against us passage. And it the bill becomes a law, i the people will rise in their sovereignty and wipe irom me siatute book. Tho Senator from Hamilton (Mr. Disney) says Repeal will bo the watchword to southern Ohio. At the north among the hardy and the honest yeomanry ot the norih-west, who ask no sne cial laws for their protection, who want no banks but those which a kind Piovidcnco gave the m that cry of Repeal will be the rallying shout at the polk. Honest them selves, they ask but honesty iu others, and never will they tamely submit to see uno qua, unjust and oppressive laws created to cheat them out of their hard earned sub stance, without making an effort at least t ward off the blow. Senators who support thisbill, profess to ridicule this doctrino of repeal. Without having any claim to Iho gift- of prophecy, 1 think I can safely assert that before three months their tuno will change, and that they will never go into another nolitical camnaiL'ii without a promise to repeal at least some of the obnoxious features of this bill. Like the boy caught in a roguish act, they will pro mise amendment and, if so, they at once I t 1 . 1. i t acKiiowieoge ine rigiu or repeal in its broad est sense. If a law can be modified, it can be repealed; and he who promises to amend this law, at once acknowledges in full force the right of the Legislature, if it so pleases. unconditionally to repeal it lo wipe it at once and lorevor irom tho statute book. In behalf of thoso I represent knnwiiiff, as 1 do, their wishes, their hopes and their reelings, 1 woultf do violence lo their feel ings and to my own, did I not, here in my piaco, us a .senator on this door, enter my solemn protest against the passage of this bill. If it does pass if the Constitution is to be violated if a cl:o3en, favored few, are io oe permuted to ride over the interest and to plunder the many then, with the Sena tor from Hamillon, and with the whole de mocracy of the State, will the crv of Re peal!
