Down to 1888 the rate of interest paid to depositors in the post oiilce and other savings banks was 4 per cent. To about the same date the Canadian public loans were floated in England at an average ot over 4 per cent, the principal exception being a loan of four; millions in 1888 on which the actual rate was 3.27 per cent. But as money became more plentiful and cheaper in 1897 a Canadian loan ot two millions was iloated at a rate of|2.&i per cent. It was then concluded that `the interest rate in the money markets of the world had beenpermanently lowered and on July 1, 1897 the rate paid to depositors in the national savings banks was reduc- ed from 35 to 3 per cent. The chartered banks followed suit and depositors had to content themselves as best they might. But money is worth considerably more than 3 per cent at the present time. A Montreal paper tells that the Bank of Nova Scotia recently proposed to increase the interest rate.or deposits from 3 to 4 per cent, but the majority ol the Bankers’ Association to whom the proposal was `submitted deci led against it. Just now gilt edge securities can be purchased on the market at a price which will pay be- tween 5 and 6 per cent and British con- sols are selling lower than during the Boer war. The Ontario government re- cently tound it could not sell its 3§ per cent bonds for the construction of the Temiscamingue Railway. These are bonds of the richest Province of the Domi- nion; a Province free of debt and with ex-Y cellent credit. It is doubtful whether the federal Government could float a loan to- day at better than 3§ per tent. P. R. NEWSOM, Subscription llg .
