CONFIDENCE ANp cReplT

Confidence In churches and in the pure
character Of those who carry on church
work is like credit to bank The one Is
as necessary as the other is sacred.
II some rattle Drained tramp were to
come here preaching against the credit Of
one Of our banks because he had lost
faith ia It, or because he disliked its
cashier, or because his paper had been
declined for discount. the community
would esteem him fool and a fraud, and
the EVENING JOURNAL would call him
both il plain terms.
Our worthy contemporaries you'd do
as their peculiar political or commercial
interests dictated, and take course
which might lead them to defend such
a man as bearer Of good news. Nobody
can say how they would flop. Because
NOBODY knows where their private inter
ests lie. They might, indeed, do the
proper thing as really happens some
times, and expose such man as fraud
and general nuisance
But nobody can entertain moments
doubt as to the course Of the EVENING
JOURNAL AS our contemporaries wab
bled and suppressed the facts concerning
the thieving Of Judge Cummins, who
was robbing his friends and disgracing
the bench so the EVENING JOURNAL de-
nounced him.
No fraud can gain any influence with
this paper No man who comes here de-
nouncing one OF our reputable CONNER
eial institutions can use the EVENING
/ JOURNAL TO advance his cause on line his
pockets with i'll gotten money, much
less can any perlpatetic preacher who
comes here to SANDER body Of religious
people use as or the columns Of the
EVENING JOURNAL for such purpose
We are not rich, but we are doing well
enough not to be used for such purposes
as that.
For those reasons we had nothing to
say about that so called Father Stat
ternly.
We would not have mentioned him, at
all, but for the attack he made
upon us for not assisting him In Islander
ing body Of religious people whose
religion does not suit him.
Common. commercial honesty, in
speaking Of the credit Of bank or Of
any financial institution requires more
sense and truth than the Christian benev-
olsncs Of Father Slatternly displayed
in speaking Of the Roman Catholic
Church.
Now, we do not care any mora for
that church than for any other church.
but we maintain that no man should be
assisted in denouncing that church by the
public prints any more than some fnan-
oial charlatan should use the same
| prints to denounce the officers Of the
Bank Of Delaware and injurs the bank
credit.
Surely large body Of religious people
deserve the Same discrimination from
respectable paper that bank
or morocco factory enjoys
We refuse to shake the confidence
Of Christian people in their church, as
we refuse to attack the credit Of bank
or a morocco factory
The same papers which assisted Stat
ternly are the same which defended
Cummins, and suppressed the news that
their reporters brought in concerning
him.

President Jordan maintains that Agri

theory his experience one day when the

groceries and tobacco, got of crate of
live chickens was put on; and the cars

a oonundrum for Porter.

New York Herald.
Our Washington correspondent has
presented to that humbug named Porter
very hard nut to crack. VIII Mr..
Porter step TO the front and crack this
nut for the edification of the people, or
will he ignore all charges, however
grave, and murmur In dulcet tones.
What are you going TO do about IL A
self respecting rhinoceros would feel
sensitive If. accused, but Porter ism 6
made that way, apparently BE makes
two odd admissions, however. First, he
admits that the appropriation Of
8 6, 500, 900 for taking tn .
census is ,all gone. That is rather
cheering news He even admits that he
runs an awfully slow coach for such
times as these and that the census will
not be com leted for four or FIVE years
yet The census Of 1880 cost something
ike four millions. Porter has already
spent six and half millions and mod
estly asks for two or three millions more
as flyer. Now. the conundrum which our
correspondent puts Is this: why
should the census of 1920 cost pretty
nearly three times as much as that of
1s80S" Mr.. Porter cannot gueas the con
undrum, he will give 1t up. And the
reason why he is so frightfully silent
is that silence Is his only safety.
