A VULGAR BULLY.

gresham from the Second District.
Another notorious member of the
party, the Commissioner OF Railroads
and relegraphs appointed by Gov.
Bishop, Wm. Bell, Jr. comes to the
front again. 1t will be remembered
that this same Bell last winter threat

better off, perhaps not so well, as If be
had an honest neighbor's simple note
of hand. From the latter he would
realize its face; from the former he
could scarcely hope, with past evidence
as guide, to realize fifty per cent.
Besides the rottenness of the system
itself, It is left practically to its Own
devices for want Of proper legislation
to restrain it. inspect it, and report its
condition. There is law in this State.
We know, requiring such banks to
publish statement of condition. But
when published the public is no wiser
than before. 1t is an easy thing TO
show a balance, but is not always so
easy a matter to prove it.
No banking or other corporation.
operated for gain, should be allowed
to do business upon the money of the
public without putting up securities
sufficient to cover possible losses, and
even the National Banking system
nigh. be improved in this particular,
not only to its own benefit bat to the
benefit of the public. National Banks
are now required to secure their circu
lation, which Is making note holders
preferred creditors; yet they are not
the main stays of the banks, their de
posits frequently going beyond their
capital. The government guarantees
the notes of the National Banks, but
requires securities for its protection.
The government is the creature of and
a protecto, to Ihe people; yet it fails
in its protection to the people when il
neglects to demand fer them equal
security.
A requirement such as we have indi
Gated above would be a beuefit both
to the depositor and to the country.
To the depositors because they would
be secured against loss; to the country
because such securities as would be oi
value would draw but a<6noderate
amount of interest, and compel q
breaking up of the heavy interest sys
tenn which rendeIs banking insecure,
and at the same time shoulders upon
the business public the burden of its
maintenance. The banks, relieved
from paying such heavy interest or
deposits, could lend on easier terms and
secure better class of paper. And
depositors not satisfied with rate oi
interest which the bank could safely
pay, would compete in open market
for Investments.
Besides being required to secure the
money of the public, every bank oI
other corporation shorld be subject to
visits of inspection, without notice just
as the National Banks now are, and
be obliged to wind up when they out
rage the laws of business. And it will
not be until some such system is devi:-
ed that banking in its best character
will be reached, and security alike be
had for note holder and depositor.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM is a very
irregular proceeding DR.. Thrall made
q most unexceptional Marshall fol
Southern Ohio, and his retention
would have been very satisfactory to
all having business with the office, but
a term of eight years and that waf
thought to be sufficient Tor him. Levi
Weirick has been Postmaster of Tiffin
for eight years, aud has made a very
acceptable officer. But his eight years
of service were no bar to his re appoint
ment. Levi is happy. And SO it goes
and the instances of like character are
innumerable. Evidently ''kissing goes
by favors' quite as much now as at
any previous time.

ANOTHER Savings Bank has been
added to the long list of failures. Last
week it was ADDE'S bank at Cincinnati
now it is the Indianapolis Savings
Bank at Indianapolis. On Friday
morning last. when depositors present
ed themselves, they were informed the
bank could only pay 25 per cent of the
deposits, but expected to be able to pay
ninety per cent; would know within
ninety days as all their paper matured
within that time. The reason assigned
for the suspension of business was that
since September, 1877, they had been
obliged to withdraw $500, 600 of their
paper and pay it to depositors, and as
there was no longer any money in the
business, they found it desirable to
quit; If all the banks outstanding
paper was good, they could pay depos-
itors in full and have 81, ,200left. And
this amount represents the banks cap
ital, or its surplus earnings. and betrays
its weaknessl And such result is the
common one, when a Savings Bank
has concluded its labors. Not one
manager out of twenty ever had or
expected to have any money of bis own
embarked in the business. From the
first they have preyed upon the people,
and from the first the people have been
the sufferers, simply because they have
permitted themselves to be guiled by q
promise of a good rate of interest, but
with no security other than the simple
memorandum of deposit, which proved
no security at all when the bank met
with misfortune. Aud curious as it
may seem, many depositors, who could
have let their money at a far rate of
interest on excellent security, and SO
benefited a neighbor or helped to
su;id up manufacturer, have prefer
red to place their money In such a
bank, and have gone down with it
under the pressure of failure. We do
not say Savings Banks or deposit banks
may not be conducted prosperously
and safely, and to the benefit of de
positors and managers, but under the
present system they are the exceptions
not the rule. But we do say no bank,
however apparently prosperous 1t may
be, can ultimately succeed and pay
such rates of interest as are usually
paid by such institutions. The bank
which pays eight. ten, or twelve per
cent, for money is forced to loan the
same at most exhorbitant rates. This
they cannot do without taking risks
that careful business men would refuse;
and the rate demanded reliable men
viii not pay, except as temporary
expedient. What is the consequence
Forced to make good income in order
to pay interest alone, they stake
chances" in hopes of large returns

Many cases of Diptheria and Sore Throat
are prevailing at present throughout the city
and country towns, and we may look for q
variety of recipes and recommendations OF
this or that cure from the wise ones. In the
interest of suffering children we wish to say
a word in favor Of Lawson's Curative as Z
preventative as well as a cure for this invi.
dious enemy of children. We have such un,
doubted evidence that the Curativewill cure
Diptheria that we strongly urge every family
with young children to keep 1t ON hand and
