James K. Polk restored the treasury by implementing a system of independent treasury, which separated the government's finances from private banks. In 1846, he established the Independent Treasury Act, allowing the government to manage its own funds and hold them in federal vaults. This system aimed to stabilize the economy and reduce reliance on state and private banks. Polk's fiscal policies helped to eliminate the deficit and contribute to a more stable financial environment during his presidency.
