A TERROR TO BANKERS.
The Fraud Who Comes in the GuIse of
Humble HonestY II Moat Drcndeh

The Fraud Who Comes in the GuIse of
Humble Honesty IL Most Dreaded.
n. a. Painbolt, of Norfolk, Neb., who
was present Mt the worlds congress Of
finance Mt Chicago, said to n st. Louis
Globc-Dcmocrat: a. mn more fearful Of
the man who makes a good appearance
than OF the other kind. Men who cx-
pect to deceive bankers understand
how much we have to depend upon
looks. They prepare themselves ne
cordingly. II q man comes to inc with
n certain amount Of timidity and want
of confidence, I am moro inclined to
take him Mt his word and give him
what he wants than il he is ready of
speech and entirely self-posscsscd. As
for the theory that the confidence man
betrnys himself by h is manner ] have
my doubts. It hasn't been my expert
ence with them. Dickens Is considered
an authority on human nature. Dick
ems said something like this: The
general impression is that n dishonest
man cannot look you in the face. Let
me disabusc your mind of that, for 1
promise you n dishonest man Gun look
you out Of c~ountennncc every hour Of
the day II there is anything to uc
gained by it. My experience in tho
banking business confirms that view
OF It,"
j. NJ. Dinwiddie, Of Cedar Rapids,
said: "Let me add my experience. a
man came into my bank with n check
for fifteen dollnrs-his wages ms n car
pcnter, lie said. lie was dressed like
n workingm n. lie looked like one.
In every way he had the appearance of
IN honest man. I hadn't the lcnst
doubt he was what he claimed to DO
md caslied his check. lie had forged
the signature. He cashcd six others
like 1t in our city that day. We got
him and looked him ovcr carefully,
but couldn't see anything about him
which c~onnicted with my first judg-
mcnt that he was on honest working
man.. Even after he was In prison hc
was just rs honest looking us when hc

In 1860. the Democracy had con-

the current expenses. In 1893 the
same will be true Mound City

GOVERNMENT aid to the money
Changers in season of tightness in
money matters, which their insati-
ate greed creates, has been render
ed so often that it has become a
prQverb. The money-changers can
rob the people without stint, and
there comes no hint nor suggestion
that government will aid the robbed;
bQt the robhers-un unfortunate fell
lQWs-must be seen to their affairs
mnst be looked after. The robbers
demand sudden and satisfactory
exercise Of paternarism on the part
Of the government officials, when
eyer they (the robbers) have gone
beyond their depth ; but just let the
wealth.creators fall into straitened
circumstances and call for aid from
officials, or suggest that government
LOAN them money on the same terms
loaned to the money-changers, and
the language becomes a tumble of
feeble, meaningless sounds and
phrases in their efforts to fittingly
characterize the movement. So
long as officials aid those who have,
paternalism is just the thing. but
when those who have but little ask
that they be helped so that they
may not be forced to part with the
little they have, paternalism becomes
an appalling crime, and the language
is robbed Of adjectives to describe
it.
