THE MONTANA CIRCUIT.
A Serious Question RS to Helena Being

A Serious Question ss to Helena Being in
II This Year.
The racing programme for tho Montana
circuit has been received by Secretary
Pope, of the Helena association. 1t con-
tains tho programme for Dillon from July
4 to Z, Missoula July 10 to IS. Anaconda
July Is to 26, Butte July 20 to Aug. 10. Tho
Helena dates from Aug. 10 to 26, and those
of Great Falls from Aug. 20 to Sept. ., are
not filled. Secretary Pope, when ques-
toned concerning the omission of the Hell
ena programme. said that the board of
directors of the Montana state fair had been
losing money. and it WAS not certain that
they would have any racing here.
If tho public interest warranted having
racing here this summer, there would be
some; otherwise not. There will be no
fair, however. That point is settled. 1t
would be somewhat unfortunate If the di-
rectors of the Montana state fair found it
necessary to abandon racing this year. Sec
rotary Pope has received more inquiries
from horsemen than ever before. showing
hat the disappointmenu will not be linn
issd to this section alone.

July "a last David A. Sanders Of Ply
mouth, Utah, filed an application with
the Department Of Justice for amnesty
for violating the laws relating to unlaw-
full cohabitation. The applicant says he
did not receive the benefit OF President
Harrison's amnesty proclamation, and
for that reason his unlawful relations did
not cease until few days after the time
mentioned by the proclamation as the
limit, November, 1890. He says he has
not violated any law Of the country OK
cept that relating TO cohabitation that
he has not violated this law for more
than two and one-half years. President
Cleveland is in doubt whether he can
properly grant the pardon, and before
acting on II has referred II back to the
Attorney-General for an opinion.
In regard to the account Of the inter
view between Secretary Gresham and
the Chinese Minister, in which Secre-
tary Gresham is said to have told the
Chinese Minister that the administra-
tlon did not intend to enforce the exclu-
sion law, 1t is stated at the State Depart
ment that, whatever the views OF the
President and Secretary Gresham might
be In the matter, they would not give
assurance to the Chinese government
that a law would not be enforced while
i remained on the statute books, and
that therefore the statement attributed TO
Secretary Gresham was inaccurate. 1t
is understood that Mr.. Gresham merely
assured the Minister OF the good will of
the United States toward the Chinese
government and hoped the question Of
exclusion would be arranged in u salts
factory manner, go that the amcable re-
lations between the two governments
would not be disturbed.

IN st. Louis few days ago a man
named A. X. Florida killed himself
Ly taking enough prussic acid to kill
regiment. He evidently wanted to
make sure OF the job. Mr.. Florida
was a very we'll known man in that
city, being one Ct the most promi
nent aud apparently one of the most
successful real estate men in the
city. His suicide caused the most
profound surprise in the community.
But as the facts connected with
his death and life have come to light,
the surprise 1T his death has passed
away, having given place to wonder
at the fact that the man had prac-
ticed the most wholesale frauds and
sEind es il his real estate aud tinan-
clal operations.
The suicide of this man aud o.
the hundreds like him, whose deaths
fill the columns OF the newspapers,
is the product OF modern civiliza-
ton, of the insane desire to get sud
denly rich. All the civilized world
seems to have run mad in the race
for money. In this haste to be rich,
mel cease to be honest, forget their
moral and religious obligations,
plGnder their friends, wreck bank
sud heap dishonor upon their fami.
lies.
Is the "game worth the csndle?'
1t surely is not. The crazy craving
TOR money, the violent aud unprin-
cipled competition in business
which so many permit to becoms the
master passion Of life, is the lOwes
motive that can animate a human
soul. M)re than that, it is the rank
est folly; for whether such pursui
of wealth is successful or not, it fail
to accomplish its fundamental pur
pose, it makes no man either hap
pier or better. Lately there died il
New York, while still OAly middle
aged, man who had probably mad
more millions by his own effort
than any other Que man in this lane
of milliOnaires. During his life h

town and county depends the pros
perity Of every individual and public
enterprise, the HERALD among the
many others.
Maury County cannot grow and
prosper without banks. 1t is unwise
and unsafe to keep large sums OF
money at rome. 1t invites robbery
aud murder. Especially is this 80 Of
the country. The people must have
place of safe deposit. They have a
right to watch it.: to inquire into its
conduct; to demand that it be pru-
IDENTIFY, conservatively managed; to
demand that it be safe. When these
demands are met, they should en-
courage, support and sustain it.
How will the pOtatoe crop, the
wheat crop aud other grains, the cot
ton crop and all other crops be
moved without the aid OF banks?
How will the mules and horses be
bought and sold without the aid Of
tue banks? 1t is all financial i'm
possibility. Think of that.
How Will the merchant buy his
goods; how will he make his dis
counts; how will he meet his drafts ;
how will he make his payments !;
how will he get his exchange, with
out banks? Think Of that.
How can banks loan money, move
crops, pay drafts for others, furnish
exchange, aud run their business,
without the confidence aud support
Of the people? They cannot do it at
all. They are a necessity to the peo-
pie, and the people are a necessity to
them.
The banks may as we'll say they
will stop letting out money because
they lose loan occasionally, as for
the people to say they will stop de-
posting in banks because they lose
a dep )sit once in life time.
The moral Of all this is that all this
talk about never putting any more
money in banks, ought to stop, aud
instead we should all encourage
each other to work with renewed
energy to retrieve the losses many
have sustained. A man who will
stand on the streets now and fan the
flame Of dis 'ontent and encourage q
suspicion IN others against their
fellow-man, is an enemy to the
public.
The HERALD is neither directly
nor indirectly connected with the
Maury National Bank; we are per-
fectly untrammeled and unbiased
and free to speak our honest iudg
ment; and we do speak it when, at
ter careful inquiry and investiga
ton, we say that the Msury Nationa
, Bank is a thoroughly safe depository
Tor anybody's money, be the sun
great or small. II we have any OBJ
lection at all to lind with the man
, agement of this bank, it is that they
/ are TOO conservative.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1893-05-05

The HERALD, at present at least,
has no harsh words for the broken
banks or their officers; neither have
we any excuses TO make for their
failures; until we know more about
it than we do now, we will leave the
parties directly interested to settle
these matters between themselves as
they deem best.
But putting the dark and gloomy
past behind us, let's look to the
future.
The HERALD is earnest in its in-
terest and its hopes for the good OF
this good county. Our interest all
lies here; upon the prosperity of this
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1893-05-05

The HERALD ventures the predic-
ton that there will not be another
bank failure in Columbia in the next
fifty years. The sad experience of
the three defunct banks will be a
wholesome warning to those coming
after them, and banking business
hereafter will be conducted on strict
business principles. We cannot blame
burnt child from dreading the fire,
but there is no good sense in not put.
ting your money Ia a safe bank.
