RUNNING A NATIONAL IANR.

The United States Investor calls atten-
tion to the fact that tho big National
Bank of Illinois was "one man bank"
So was the National Bank of Minnesota,
the st. Paul institution whose failure
wss also reported this week. Both banks
appear to have been conducted especially
In the interest of individual officials and
their immediate families and friends. 1t
is further indicated that, indirectly II
not directly, thess institutions had large
Holdings OF real estate, a class of security
that Is prohibited by the banking lsws.
In the case OF the Chicago bank, one
party was borrower to the amount of
nearly two millions and half of dollars,
while to several individuals had been
loaned as much as half Q million, the
capital stock of the hank being only
million. and the lawful loans to any one
person being by law limited accordingly
case of the st. Paul Bank, also, loans to
individuals had exceeded the legal re-
ouirement.
There is, then, in the wrecking of these
two institutions no blame to be attached
to the law and no relief for the future
from new legislation. The Investor con-
fesses that 1t does not see how the evil js
to be remedied In the management of
banks except by o reconstruction of
human nature, and there is certainly
nothing new in ths story thus divulgsd of
the collapse OF institutions that are not
run in the interest OF the shareholders,
tho depositors or the public, but only as
an instrument for the prospective crea-
tion OF wealth of few active individuals
in the management.

perhaps In other excepetional isstances,
1t may be advisable to clear of the sur

to whom now refer, who spent money,
strength and precious years of life in

better TO let the rocks alone. Rocky
lands often mako good pastures, and are

RECOGNITION.

Tie Greater Republic of Central Amer
lea mas teen recognisei by tie admins
tration without any fuss, and probably
very few persons in these United States
knesy that the proposition of reooEnilioh
was on foot until the announcement wps
made CT the reception OF tie accredited
representative of the new state.
The committee on foreign affeirs of the
Senate presented in its report sc:ompany-
ing the Cuban resolutions a rather fine
history of the recognitions extended oy
this country To new governments, but
elaborate and informing as was the
treatise, it hardly snswerei the question
of whose was the prime right to recog-
nize. OF course there is little II anything
that can be called law on the subject, and
few precedents, since Congress and the
Executive have. of course, been pretty
generally in agreement whenever a pro-
position to recognize has been before
them. OF the ma jority Of really important
intsrnatio onal questions, up to this time
each has had to establish its own case,
and the nations In their mutual relations
are every year making presidents and
making law far more than they are fol-
lowing law. since there is so little law
to follow, and where law seems to exist
its application 10 particular case must
usually be in controversy. After ell, in
ternational law, Is but in it's infancy. 1t
is not tocbe made in day. but must be
developed by the practice of many gener-
ations.
The opinion advanced by Secretary
OLNEY appears to be the same that has
been held by Presidents MONROE, ADAMS,
JACKSON, VAN BUREN, HARRISON,
PoL., TAYLOR, PIERCE, BUCHANAN,
LINCOLN, JOHNSON, GRANT, HAYES.
CLEVELAND, and their Secretaries of State,
ihSiuuins NLhfs VHboIhh, NALhoONs
EVERETT, MARCY, CAss, SEWARD, FISH
and BLAINE. Fortunately for the discus-
sion the opinion is general, not to be linn
tied TO the Cuban controversy although,
OF course, Cuba has invited it.
New governments have bean "recog-
nized," sometimes with, and sometimes
without, preceding Congressio nal sane
tion. New governments have been recog-
nized or have been refused recognition
by the executive administration In the
cases of Mexico, Central America, South
America, Greece, Hungary, France. Spain
and Italy. Occasionally the executive
has sesmed to avert war by declining to
recognize prematurely movements that
had popular sympathy in the United
States.

well enough, but 1 don't like that Kitty.
She's get to CO."
Fortunately Jooy's anger was short
lived and in a little while he and Kitty
would be playing together, the best of
friends.
In few Gays joey received word from
Corky McShane thar he was to come and
get the doll, and Joey went.
Corky was not at home, bit Mrs. Nc
Shane delivered long narrow package
to Joey, which he fairly grabbed In his
eagerness, aud fastened home to in
spect the precious doll. All the family
gathered around the Kitchen table whel
Joey cam Elm and announced that he'd got
tho doll Mikey sent from Boston.
The outside brown paper wrapper was
taken of and discloscJ long narrow
box. This also was tied up and Joey's
impatient little fingers could hardly wait
while some one cut the strings for him.
Then there was more paper and more
string, and more pap,r. joey WAS get
ting excited as the package became
smaller and smaller. Those waching
him felt misgivings that il ives all
paper. But, no; at the very last he un-
rolled tiny doll, such as one buys for
penny. joey was disappointed, but he
was angry too. "l'll have 1t out with
that Corky," he declared. "It's mean
trick he's played on me-"
Kitty ventured the remark: "Tell the
policeman"
Now, Kitty was not without adven-
lures Of her own, IL her word could be
taken for what ii was worth.
sob, Mammal" she cried one day as
she came in from play, "What do you
think? just now saw three boys out
there playing and a perliceman came
along, and he had two great swords in
his hands, and he spoke TO the boys and
rested um cause they wouldn't DO what
he told um. And he cut of one boys
ears with his big sword, and while he
was doing 1t the other two run off," She
believed firmly in "perlicemen," and
whatever they did was right. Now Corky
McShaus and Jimmy felt rather mean
about the doll affair and knew they had
not treated Joey quite fairly. So they
talked it over. Both were hard working
boys and earned only boys wages, but
this aid not hinder them from acting
generously when they put their minds
to it. Joey should have a nice doll to
make up for their fun at his expense, and
also because in their hearts they felt for
his disappointment. They gave Mamie
good part of their weeks pay and COM
missioued her to buy "irst class,
bang-up DOLL" the biggest she could
get for the money. And Mamie faith
fully carried out their wishes. This love-
ly creature was packed into box with
only one wrapping of tissue paper and
Christmas morning Joey found It with
his well filled stocking, and a happier
little boy is not often seen. That doll
was with him night and day. and Mamie
kept it safe from kitty's destructive
fingers in his absence. The derby hat
covers happy little boy 's head and the
brown eyes still win him hosts OF I, ,iends.
He met the nice pleasant man In the
street. the other day. "Hello," said
joey; "yer boss amt sint fer me yit."
"No," said the msu; "businsss is
slack now; we amt employing any new
men just now. But the boss won't for
get you." FAIRLEIoH COTTAGE.
