What percentage OF bank failures IS
due TO Jnfaithfulness Of bank directors?
How many Of tho railroads that are put in
20 the hands or receivers owe their unfor-
tuuate condition 10 neglect OF duty Of IL
r-ctors chosen TO protect their interests
Answers TO these questions would be in
tercstiug.
Investigation would disclose probably.
that bank and railroad directors are only
figure heads. They know little or notn-
ing Of the duties they are expected to
discharge. and they do not attempt 10
learn them. They entrust everything TO
subordinates. and no one is more surprised
than they when disaster comes-disaster.
which nine time out Of ten. would have
been averted If they had done what they
promised 10 do. Ought they not to be
held pecuniary responsible for their un=
faithfulness? Ought not there to be
law holding bank and railway directors
10 a much stricter accountability?
The number Of bank failures within the
last month or two has been unusually
large. In nearly every instance the fail
ure was due TO dishonest officials. but the
wrong-doing Of the officials would have
been detected IN time to avert disaster
had the directors been faithful. They were
negligent, and the banks money was
stolen right from under their eyes.
The cashier Of the First National Bank
OF Willimantic, Conn. died the other
day. The whole town mourned his death.
He was regarded as man of the highest
integrity and was implicitly trusted by
people Of all classes. The day of his
funeral an the business houses closed
and the schools were dismissed. There
was general desire to honor the MEM
DRY of a man so highly esteemed. School
teachers pointed TO him as a model and
parents urged their sons 10 take him a,
81 pattern for their business careers.
Two days after his funeral il was
known ne was a forger and a thief-that
he had robbed the bank of which he was
a trusted official Of all Of its capital and
all of its surplus; that he had squandered
all the estates entrusted TO him and that
he had obtained money on forged paper
10 the amount of many thousands OF dol
lars. He had even forged the name of
the president of the bank to a note for
a large sum, and the note had been kept
among the assets Of the bank for year
or more without the presidents knowl-
edge.
VIII anybody say the directors of the
First National Bank Of Willimantic
did their duty? VIII anybody attempt to
defend them against the charge of GRIMM
al neglect? They cannot be successful
ly defended, ana their ought to be a law
i'm Connecticut. and every other state,
making such directors liable, to the ex-
tent of their financial ability, for every
dollar lost through their neglect.
II is folly to have directors who are
mere figure heads, but there will be such
directors just as long as there is no law
making directors responsible for the re-
suits of their neglect.

man, as he turned fun around.

Col Blunt"
Il said l was well" repeated the man
who had been slapped.

me. It's the first time I ever made such a

not until after l had slapped you on the
back that ] found out my mistake II
was very rude of me, and ] beg pardon

What do you wish me to overlook?''
The young man got to go all over
that speech again, but a plumber who
was about to get off took him by the arm
and walked him out, and said:

cited that his railroad would be bene-
fitted by having free coinage of sill
yer In this country, He seems to be the
only man of prominence that has dis
covered great prosperity in Mexico. The
editors of this state, who visited that
country sometime ago, didn't find the re-
marNable prosperity that crops out in
Capt. Raouls interview-at least, they did
not if we read Alright what they said
when they returned. They found the toll

We feel satisfied in saying that American
worl1men would not be satisfied with the
kind Of prosperity that exists in Mexico
neither would American farmers and bust

Capt RaouTs road may have gathered in
a good deal of silver, but by the time he
pays for his supplies in countries in which
it takes two of his Mexican dollars to get
a gold dollar, it is doubtful If he will have
anything left for his stockholders. As
the stockholders and bondholders are
mostly Englishmen, however, he ought
to advise them to exert themselves to

What Scientists say;
Prof. Arnold of the University Of
New York: 81 consider that each and
every ingredient of oleomargarine but
ter or butterine is perfectly pure and
wholesome. that the oleomargarine
butter differs in no essential manner
from the butter made from cream. It
is a great discovery, a blessing for the
poor, in every way a perfectly pure,
wholesome and palatable article.
Silver Churn Butterine is prepared
especially for fine table use. Every de-
tail of its manufacture is perfect. Re.
cent chemical experiments show that
in nutritive and digestive properties
Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to
the best creamery butter; while in
keeping quality Silver Churn Butteriue
is much superior.
