The Hon. A. A. Burleigh in the course
of his remarks in favor of the savings
bank bill, said that 100000 in bonds
of the Aroostook railroad had been me-
gotiated and only fifteenth part of
them had been taken by capitalists in
Maine, and the people of Aroostook
didn't like it. Mr.. Burleigh has unwit-
tingly let out the true inwardness of this
bill. There is no constitutional way to
coerce the capitalist into investing in
what he doesn't want to invest in. 1t
isn't possible to say to them, eff you
don't give preference to Maine securities
your tax shall be increased" But

Use of savings banks that can be said to
the depositors in those institutions, and
it is proposed to say it. AS the screws
can't be put upon the capitalist it is pro-
posed to do the next best thing by put
ting them on the savings banks.

1t would be interesting to know the
history of the savings bank bill now
pending before the legislature. Most
bills of this character originate in petit
lions from some class of citizens, and
the movement is recognized long before
the bill makes it's appearance. There is
borning process with most measures
of this sort. But this one appears to
have come forth all of sudden full
panoplied like Minerva from the brain of
Jove. Since it is measure purely for
the benefit of the dear people the pre-
sumption is that it originated in the
brain of some philanthropist whose
benevolence is so tremendous that he
has been impelled to hire four of the
highest priced lawyers in the state to
advocate it, and whose modesty is so
overwhelming that he keeps out of sight
lest grateful people may de1uge him
with resolutions of thanks or perchance
rear to him monument of enduring
brass.

THE PRESS.
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2.

The anti-options bill has passed the
Senate. but with amendments which will
send it back to the House, where it
passed in different form. Whether the
bill finally becomes law or not, will,
we are inclined to think, make little diff
ference to the country, for it belongs to
class of legislation which shows up
well on the statute book, but becomes
dead letter in practice.

Mr.. L. B. bennett in another column
calls attention to the proposed constitu-
tional amendment which the legislature
is to be asked to submit to the people.
This amendment forbids state aid to
sectarian schools, and the large support
which it is receiving in all the communi-
ties where it has been called to public at
