I will say to my friend that this Congress can enact a great many laws. It enacted the other day what I consider a very strange law. as contrary to the genius of our instititions. the Chinese immigrationbill. Congress might give to the Sec.retary of the Treasury the power to issue Treasury notes to fill up the gap caused by the contraction of nationalbank currency. But it is my opinion that the American people never will consent to give such a power as that to any Secretary of the Treasury. You had not loug since one in that office in whom you thought you could repose every trust.
