Against the Bank Oneials
stopped.

ERIE, Pa, May 23.-The prosecution of
President Jarecki and Cashier Sturgeon, of
the defunct Humboldt Savings Bank,
collapsed yesterday. The case was begun
two years ago, at which time the
bank officers were charged with
receiving money fraudulently. Shortly
after the prosecution was commenced,
Cashier Sturgeon skipped the States and his
bondsman had just paid the surety $1,000,
under the Judgment of the Supreme Court.
The case hung fire So long and unscrupu-
lous creditors took advantage OF the situa-
ton to evade payment of debts to the de-
funct institution that the depositors con-
cluded that the release of the officers would
be the best means for facilitating the
settlements Of the banks affairs. Up to
this time the bank has paid its depositors
little over 30 per cent. and it is expected
now that the jury's verdict of not guilty
will put the Jareckis and sturgeon in
mood TO assist in speedy liquidation of the
banks indebtedness, so far as it can be
done from assessments on stock yet un-
paid.

James G. Blaine is not greater man
than John Sherman. The senator is not
second to any other man as citizen of the
Republic. Mr.. Blaine is not the first citi-
zen." The fact about him is that he has a
larger, and more enthusiastic, and more
determined personal following than any
other man In America, and that he is
worthy of it. Let us adhere, judicially, to
facts. Mr.. Sherman is certainly equal, in
ability, public service and personal record,
to Mr.. Blaine, or any other man.

Andrew Carnegie makes this remark
about Blaine:
Mr.. Blaine Is too honest man to decline
to serve his country when duty calls him.
II the republican national delegates at
Chicago choose James G. Blaine by unani-
nous vote, he will undoubtedly consent to
run.
The man who is nominated at Chicago
whoever he is-must accept and make
the race. 1t is not Mr.. Blaine, but the
Chicago convention. which is to do the
nominating, and the question is not
whether Mr.. Blaine or Mr.. Sherman wants
the nominstion-or does not want it-but
whether the republicans Of the country
want either of them, OF some other man, to
have 1t.

1t now begins to look as though we were
to have board Of health. The law re-
quires it and the city council must comply
with the requirements of this law. The
REPUBLIC has long advocated this matter
and we have many times pointed out
the imperative necessity Of such board. II
we are to escape disease and epidemic.
Council should now move promptly and
carefully, in the matter, and provide this,
long-needed guard around our people.
One has only to go upon our streets to see
the great necessity for such board and we
hope council will not delay.
