Tho worst Dishonesty.

From the Philadelphia City and State
There is no worse treachery to good
government and sound morals In all this
earth than the insinuatlon that reputable
people wink at the non enforcement Of
law because, Il is assumed, they are not
favorable to the law, thinking the par.
ticular law In question to be unwige,
impraoticablo, and so on. There is
entirely too much Of what seems that
kind Of work done, IL Is true, and often
people commonly reckoned az reputable,
no doubt, come perllously near being
involved In that which the foes OF Law
are, In their own lGwle5I spirit, pro ae
to attribute to them. But there IL only
one honest way OF dealing with law, as
President Roosevelt, Of the, New York
Police Commission, said in his re-
cent speech before the Gath
Ole Total Abstinence Union
Whether at home or abroad, directly or
Indirectly, It isour gravest duty to honor
law and, by example and influence, have
others honor it. The newspapers are

they are only too we'll enforced to please

The Building and Loan Societies.

Associations for loans and building
purposes continue to increase throughout
the country and we agree with the
Cleveland Leader In the opinion that
neither savings banks nor life insurance
companies could reach and win the con
fdeuco Of many thousands Of men and
women who have been insured against
waste and poverty by the building and
loan associations No one agency Of
saving can ft sll cases. Some people
who most need encouragement and help
In laying up money for time Of adversity
put no trust in banks. They do not care
for Insurance.. because they have the
natural confidence Of youth and good
health that they will live long and retain
their ability TO earn good support for
so many years that what may happen
after death does not much concern them.
That Is the foolish way OF mankind,
when the tide and health is flowing with
the fulness Of youth.
But It often happens that the idea Of
owning a home Of gaining independence
Of landlords. and acquiring possession
Of Fixed place Of abode appeals with
great force TO the very persons who ere
indifferent to the savings banks and
the lie Insurance companies. To such
the building and loan associations are
invaluable, and it would bs hard TO
exaggerate the good they have done or
the benefits which they will bsstow In
the future upon multltudes Of wage
earners and other people Of moderate
means. Already they have baon the
means Of multiplying homes and homo
owners in some Of the groat cities Of
the United States to an extent that
has attracted the attention and aroused
the admiration Of the country.
Any sgonoy for the promotion Of saw.
Ing aud the encouragement Of thrift Is a
blessing. and when it appeals directly to
the bomeloving instinct, and acts
through that fundamental courfe Of
progress and civilization, 1t is doubly
valuable to the people of the United
States or any other country. Make
homeowners. and good citizens are made.
as general rule That is reason enough
for the fast growing numbers, wealth
and Importance Of the building and loan
associations OF the country.
