A committee Of the New York legisla-
ture is going to find out whether taxes
in New York Cypress either capital or
labor, and, if so, how. A joint commit
tee of members of the two houses is TAX
ing testimony and gathering facts in all
directions to ascertain how the taxation,
assessment and interest laws affect the
industries of the state-commercial, ag-
ricultural and manufacturing-as well
as the condition of the wage worker,
Another thing they are to ascertain is
whether capital is being driven from
the state by restrictions affecting cor
porations. The committeeman are fur
Their empowered to introduce, as the re-
suit of their deliberations, any bill into
the New York legislature which in their
judgment will either increase the in
direct revenues Of the state or equalize
the burdens of taxation.

POLITICAL BANKING

Writing on the subject Of political
Banking" the American Banker says
that the recent failure of the Capital
National bank, of Lincoln, Nebraska,
reveals the fact that of its 600,OU0 de-
posts, over one-third was composed Of
state FUNDS. We have already pointed
out the danger which lies in the accep-
tation of public deposits. This haz-
ard Is greatly reduced when the sums
are within reasonable limits. The
amount held by the bank in question
was surely excessive. The bank had
bitten off more than il could chew. 1t
offered six per cent. interest on depos-
Its and in order to maks a profit over
this rate, was compelled to go into for
hidden enterprises, When the demand
for the state funds came its money was
tied up in securities upon which it
could not realize cash.
The depositing of public funds in the
banks should be encouraged on ration
al basis. AS much publicity as possible
should be given concerning the DISPOSE
ton Of such funds No bank should be
preferred over any other on account of
the friendship of its officers with the
powers that be, or its political "pull, +"
or for any other unbusinesslike con-
sideration. Merchants will select that
bank which is not in too close contact
with scheming politicians, knowing
that several elements of risk enter the
management of such an institution
which are not present in other banks.
An equitable distribution of the peo-
pies money is urgently called for. But
this should not be given to the bank
which is ready to sail closest to the
wind at the rate of six per cent. on de
posits.

The ladies of New Whatcom who
voted to sustain Ella HigginsOn in her
victory for the clover over the rhodo-
dendron, will doubtless be pleased to
learn that the state senate has refused
to adopt a resolution favoring the lat.
ter as the state flower. During the
discussion Of the subject Senator
Smith, of Whitman county, asked
some of the senators to tell him about
the rhododendron, saying that he had
lived in this section of the country for
fifty years and had never seen one.

Merchants generally can be de-
pended upon to keep the goods for
which there is much demand. People
living in cold climates, especially
where there is much snow, are accus-
toned TO wear leggings, mufilers,
warm gloves and arctic shoes, for
which articles, in cold countries, there
Is large demand. Let some new
conner or "tenderfoot," who thinks he
has been imposed upon by the many
glowing accounts of Fairhaven's uni
formly equable climate, put the mat
ter to test and try to purchase any of
the articles usually found on sale in
stores where cold and snow abound,
and he will find himself unable to Sc.
cure them, the conclusion being just
one that since the Fairhaven mer-
chants do not keep such articles on
hand, the climate usually experienced
in the Imperial City must he mild

The American in the Panama Case.

The American in the Panama Case.
The most stupendous rascal thrown up
thus far by the Panama scandal wave is
an American citizen, DR.. Cornelius Herr,
decorated by the French government
with the cross Of the Legion of Honor
for distinguished services in the field of
electrical science. AT least if it was not
that it was because he received the cross
by vote of bride taking deputies and Of
ficials who dared not refuse it to him.
DR. Cornelius Herr was well known in
Chicago, New York and San Francisco.
He is French by birth, but came TO
America with his parents when child.
He fought for France during the Fran
co-Prussian war, leaving his student life
for that purpose He is a highly educat-
ed, socially accomplished blackmailer,
and that is about the summing up of his
illustrious abilities. His success in
swindling is attributed in Europe to the
rascally business methods he learned in
America. His particular magnetic power
of drawing money out of people did not
develop itself apparently till be went to
San Francisco in 1874. He went into
partnership with an old practitioner
there-Dr, Stout-and banlrupted him
He treated wealthy California brewer
for brain trouble, and it is known that
he got 500, 900 out of him. Then Amer
lea became too insignificant for such
splendid financial talent, and Herr went
to Europe and went in for electrical
science incidentally.
The exorbitant demands made on the
Panama canal directors by Baron Rel
mach was matter Of loud complaint
on their part. But it now transpires that
behind Reinach was Herr, pitiless and
more exorbitant. At length Reinach
committed suicide or was poisoned, and
Herr is worth a million dollars, safely
invested. The transactions, the knowl-
edge of which enabled him to get Rel
mach and officers high in French govern
ment circles so entirely in his power,
must have been shady indeed.

The Teaching Sex.

OF women college graduates it is safe
to say that more than half Of those who
enter breadwinning occupations after
leaving school engage in teaching. Even
the ladies who obtain medical diplomas
very often teach in some woman's col
lege or high school in preference to prac-
ticing their profession. Women gradu-
ates Of art schools and of schools Of
oratory, acting and music oftener become
teachers than public professionals As
superintendents of girls gymnasiums
numbers Of women physicians are find
ing employment.
So generally does the feminine sex
drift into teaching that General Francis
Walker, who recognizes the tendency.
advises that there should be special
pedagogic course established in colleges
attended by women. It would be well
to have such course in all colleges, in
truth, for both sexes. But as the teach
ing profession is falling more and more
into the hands of women, General
Walker thinks their colleges should take
the initiative in the matter
He would have the students in such
normal course practice especially the
art Of putting questions to the pupil in
such a way as to stimulate thought.
This one art, putting questions that
stimulate the child's thought, he would
have studied and practiced, practiced
and studied, year by year." until the
teacher who is to be comprehends per-
fectly that her work is not stuffing a
child's memory as poultry is stuffed for
roasting, but it is, on the contrary, de-
veloping the chiId's mind as sunshine
and shower develop a perfect flower.
He would have the normal pupils take
turns frequently in playing school and
practicing the art by which they will
earn their living.
The demand for thoroughly trained
teachers is everywhere greater than the
supply, and graduates Of physical cul-
ture courses especially have good places
engaged for them often before they
leave school. General Walker writes in
The Educational Review:
] would not have the colleges for women
teach the mere arts Of the pedagogue, which
may without offense be called the knacks Of the
trade. or undertake 70 anticipate the necessary
work OF experience. But | would have the
history and philosophy Of education made
prime subjects Of study. ! would have the

Blaine's Personal INFLUENCE.

In personal influence and magnetism
no Republican statesman has ever
equaled Blaine. No Republican states
man ever aroused the wild, thrilling en-
thusiasm among his followers that he
did, from the old ''plumed knight" days
In 1875 down to the Minneapolis con-
vention in 1892 But the power of arous-
ing enthusiasm does not always mean
success.
The monuments that will preserve
Blaine's name in lasting remembrance
among his countrymen are three-reci-
procity, pan-Americanism and his great
book, Twenty Years of Congress-" If
he had let politics alone and devoted
his splendid powers to literature, he
would have perhaps achieved more IL
lustrious fame than he will as II is. As
far back as when he was Garfeld's sec
rotary of state he evolved the pan-Amer-
lean idea-a closer union of commerce
and friendship between the United
States on the one side and the Latin
American republics on the other, and
arbitration of all the differences arising
among those republics instead of the de-
structive wars that have hindered their
development. Whatever results flow
from the pan-American congress will be
due to Blaine and largely to his tire
mendous personal influence among the
delegates.
The other Blaine idea was reciprocity.
The original reciprocity scheme sub
mitted by him to congress when he was
secretary of state provided that "the
president of the United States shall have
power to open the ports of the United
States to any or all of the products of the
other American nations and colonies
whenever and for so long as they shall
admit to their ports duty free or at re-
duced rates an equivalent amount of the
natural and manufactured products of
the United States" While the reci-
procity law finally passed by congress
did not go so far as Blaine wished, it has
opened TO us the trade of six of the Span
ish-American republics and Cuba and
several other colonies under more favor
able conditions than are allowed to any
European nation. Populations including
10000, 900 Of people are embraced in the
nations with which these commercial
treaties Of reciprocity exist.

a horrible scene at recent execu-
ton by guillotine sets one to wondering
whether there are anywhere else in civil
hzation such desperate creatures as those
OF the slum class in Paris. The con-
demned man weakened at the last mo-
ment. threw himself down and chung
desperately to the ground, kicking,
bowling and begging wildly for his life.
The keepers were forced to tear him
away by main force and carry him in their
arms to the guillotine. Even there he
fought, writhed and shrieked, both while
they bound him and after he was tied
fast TO the plank. Only the drop Of the
gfttering knife and the fall of his head
into the basket stopped this scene Of hor-
ror, which was enough to make person
Of any sensibility faint and sick. But the
crowd Of men and women from the Paris
slums actually enjoyedit. They laughed
aloud at the wretch's struggles and jeered
and tainted him till his head fell and
only the bleeding body was left. Then
they dispersed, joking and laughing as
before. 1t was the best show Of the gay
season TO them. Why the French authori-
ties permit these awful public executions
IA past understanding. Such scenes SOW
seeds Of blood and destruction that viii
grow and bear fruit for a thousand years.
