seventeen banks had on deposit nine
ty-three millions of dollars. The
number of depositors was three hun
dred and twenty-five thousand.
I could not get the total number of
women depositors, but one bank had
in round numbers forty-five thousand,
and another thirty-nine thousand wo-
mems names upon their books, with
accounts ranging from a few dollars
up to the limit allowed any one de-
positor, which, in several banks is
one thousand dollars.
The strongest safeguards that can
be put about these funds are none too
great. And the man or woman in
Vermont, who, by some toll, careful
economy and self-denial has laid by
little nest egg, does not want to take
any more risk in the Matching than is
considered safe for institutions hand
ling large sums. There may be prom
ise of larger brood to the sitting,
but a cyclone may sweep both the
chickens and the nest far beyond

them if the people of Illinois would
object to the appointment, and the
next day, the 9th, the name was
sent in. 1t is a thoroughly good ap-
poiutment. Mr.. Lincoln has the abil-
ity and the character to represent the
government in England or anywhere
else or to stand chief at the head.
He may not be so happy in an after
dinner speech as some of his prede-
cessors, but he is by no means un-
used to the ways of court society, land
in all the essentials of craftsmanship
and diplomacy he will prove himself
a peer of the best. While appointed
on his own merits the election will be
accepted as a fitting recognition of
the great man gone, whose son he is,
and whose fame increases as the
years roll on.

1t looks as though the United
States would find the Samoa Island
investment a poor source of profit. If
it is necessary to have a coal sta
ton there, it would seem to be a
cheaper plan to rent an island, a
town or a dock, than to claim by
treaty rights anything more. Invest
ments in hurricanes and cyclones are
not only very expensive, but danger
Gus. 1t seems that those far away
Pacific Islands are situated in region
where hurricanes are indigenous and
the destruction of ships are frequent.
The United States has within her own
borders facilities for making and
working all the cyclones and hurri-
canes that the needs of the country
demand at present. If there are a
few sailors and naval men left at Sa-
moa,it will be well to take them home
as soon as possible, and put them on
the lee side of some quiet harbor,
whereby they will be safe. If Eng
land and Germany have any war
ships which they wish to smash and
engulf among the coral islands of
the southwest Pacific, they may do it,
but the United States has no navy
which it can at present well spare for
such purposes.

Louis KoSSuth.

The news comes that kOssuth is
dying. For many years he has lived
in exile at Turin, Italy. Seldom in
all this period has the world heard
any thing from him, but enough to
show that he was unreconciled to the
stroke whereby his native country,
Hungary, lost her independence and
became part of the Austrian empire.
Kossuth is certainly one of the most
remarkable men of the century. He
has genius, that indiscribable some
thing which lifts one above his fell
lows and gives him a range apart
from the multitude. His patriotism
is a consuming fire. He was highly
gifted for craftsmanship, and in the
field of oratory stood almost peerless.
He laid his heart on the alter of his
country, and he never ceased to be
an agonized mourner over the ashes
of his dearest hopes.

Go Slow.

To the Editor Ofthe Monitor, ,-You
struck the right nail when you told
your readers to use great caution
about investing in western farm mort
cages. The expectation of receiving
eight or ten per cent interest is the
attraction, and the eyes of judgment
are blinded by the promise of large
returns. From the american Wool
Reporter [ clip the following with re-
gard to the condition of affairs in
Phelps Co., Nebraska, and | believe
it to be fair statement of the case ::
The writer places the ''number of
farms in that county at ,459; the
number of mortgages in force Decem-
Der 1st, at 2,051; the assessed value
of the land at $596, ,542, and the
amount of the mortgages at S1,091,-
929. The total value of all taxable
property in this county is only ST.
290,390, according to the statistics
of the State Board of Agriculture.
In other words, the entire land, stock,
buildings and personal property of
Phelps county groans under an eighty
per cent mortgage, dollar almost for
dollar. Mortgaged farms are titled
with mortgaged plows and mortgaged
horses, and the produce thereof stor-
ed in mortgaged barns and houses.
It is only necessary to add that fur
ther mortgages, placed by eastern in
vestors in Phelps county, should be
first carefully regarded
Realizing that something must be
done to protect the peoples savings,
the legislature of Massachusetts, now
in session, has under consideration
and will undoubtedly pass the follow
ing bill:
Section 1. No safe deposit, loan
or trust company, incorporated by
and under the laws of this common
wealth, shall purchase or advance
money or credits upon western farm
mortgages OF notes secured by such
mortgages, nor invest in the notes,
bonds or other securities of any COM
pany whose business is the negotiat-
ing or dealing in such notes or mort
cages. Any such safe deposit, loan
or trust company which now has any
of its funds so invested shall dispose
of said investments on or before the
31st day of December, in the year
1889.
Sec. 2. This act shall take effect
upon the first day of July, 1889.
Persons having money to loan
should keep this action of the legisla-
ture in mind, and when approached
by the agent of any company which
promises safe investment and large
returns from western farm mortgages.

The Samoa Disaster.

A dlSpatcn from LOnQOn OaGeQ
April l SAYS that in the hurricane
which swept the harbor of Apia at
Samoa the German man-of-war Eber
was the first to drag her anchors.
She became unmanageable and was
driven helplessly on the reef which
runs around the harbor, striking
broadsides on. The shock caused
her to lurch and then bound back,
and she sank in a moment in deep
water. Many of the men were be-
low, and scarcely a soul of them es-
capped. The German warship Adler
was the next to succumb. She was
lifted bodily by a gigantic wave and
cast on her beam-ends on the reef.
A terrible struggle for life ensued
among the officers and sailors aboard.
Many plunged into the raging surf
and struck out, some reaching the
shore in safety. Others clung to the
rigging until the masts fell. Of the
latter two gained the shore safely.
The captain of the Adler and several
other officers were saved. In the
meantime the United States steamer
Nipsic had been dragging her anch-
ors and drifting toward the shore.
The captain, however, managed to
keep control and ran her on a sand
bank. Boats were Immediately low
cred and the whole company were
saved with the exception. of seven
men. who were drowned by the cap
sizing of a boat. The United States
steamer Vandalia was carried
before the gale right upon the reef.
She struck with a terrible shock, and
Capt. Schoonmaker was hurled
against Gatling gun and stunned.
Before he could recover a great sea
swept the deck and washed him away.
The vessel sank fifty yards from the
4NipSlC. OSNctdI VI GuS OulCCIo auo
men were washed overheard and
drowned. Others perished while
making desperate efforts to swim to
the shore. Some remained for hours
clinging to the rigging, but heavy
waves dashed increasingly over them,
and one by one they were swept
away. Soon after the Vandalia had
sunk the American warship Trenton
broke from her anchorage and was
driven upon the wreck of the Wanda
liza, whence she drifted to the shore.
The bottom of the Trenton was COM
pletely stove in, and her hold was
half full of water.
AS morning broke the German
man-of-war Olga, which had hitherto
bravely withstood the gale, although
much battered by the heavy seas
that constantly broke upon her, be-
came unmanageable and was driven
upon the beach, where she lay in a
tolerably favorable position. The
following is record of the officers
and men lost: Vandalia, the captain,
four officers and forty men; Nipsic,
seven men; Eber, the captain, all the
other officers excepting one, and
seventy-six men; Adler, altogether
fifteen persons.

Women still have the floor at Osk-
|aloOsa, Kan. For two years the
place has been municipality in their
charge, both the mayor and all the
members of the common council being
of that sex. Common rumor SAYS
that the affairs of the place have been
conducted in Il creditible manner.
The charter election there this spring
finds two tickets in the field; one
composed of married and the other
|of unmarried women. If Oskaloosa

known out that way as ''petticoat

The Manchester On. H. Mirror
is clear in the opinion that the reject
ion of the prohibitory constitutional
amendment in that State will not re-
suit in any speedy change from pro-
hibition to license. 1t says:
1t may be set down as fact that
there will be no legislation on this
subject which is not dictated by the
temperance sentiment of the State,
and until that sentiment has had time
to crystalize upon some proposition
there will be no change in our laws.
The only license law that is possible
here is one of the most rigid kind,
with tax upon the traffic as high as
is known anywhere, and to this nine
tenths of the liquor interest IS as
bitterly opposed as are the prohi-
bitionists, and when it comes to pass
ing such a law, most Of the liquor
dealers will be found voting with the
third party men against it. There
will be no license law until practical
temperance men who are, we believe,
a large majority of the voters of the
State, are not only convinced that
one is desirable, but have agreed
among themselves as to the kind of
one that is best.

Indigestion

is not only a distressing complaint, OF
L itself, but, by causing the blood 10
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers SarsaparilIa
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
Liver complaint and Indigestion
made my life a burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years | suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost TO a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, aud only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the tinlo mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief, Nothing that l took seemed to do
any permanent good until commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla L could see AN Improvement in my
&c lition. My appetite began to return
and with il came the ability 10 digest
all the food taken, my strength iu-
proved each day, and after a few
months of faithful attention TO your
directions, l found myself a well
woman, able to attend TO all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
new lease of life. -

Bismark is said to have sent to the
German minister at Washington for
full information respecting the war
vessels which the American govern
ment will send to Samoa to take the
place of the wrecked fiotilla; also
whether the filling of the naval gap at
that point will effectively weaken the
strength of the American navy else
where. This inquisitiveness is in
harmony with the German govern

The Gettysburg Monument Com
mission has decided to have the dedi-

during the first week in September.
The monument will probably be COM
pleted some little time before that
date, but the commissioners thought
the fore part of September would be
the best time for the exercises. Cheap
excursion rates will be arranged from
all points in the state and by so DO
ing the commission hopes to secure
large attendance of Vermonters at the
dedicatory exercises. Karl Ger

on the clay model of the statue, and
when finished it will be sent to New

A letter from the great American
explorer, Henry NJ. Stanley, has been
received which was written as late as
last September. The following
things are learned:
The plucky explorer passed
through great hardships and his force
was reduced from 298 to ia persons.
During this terrible journey he came
across five languages, found no land
higher than 5000 feet above the sea,
and was 16O days in a forest 246,-
900 miles in extent. The letter is
written in Stanley's interesting way
and is a valuable addition to the
stories of African explorations.
