POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.
Decided Advantages of the System Shown
by Experience.

Decided Advantages of the System Shown
by Experience.
a good deal has been said for and
against the adoption of the plan of es-
tablisbing savings banks in connection
with the postoffice department, and
various public officials have urged up
on congress consideration of the mat
ter, but SO far it has not taken up the
subject. France, England, Belgium,
Sweden, Holland, Austria, Russia, Hun
gary, Canada and Australia are coun,
tries with postal savings banks, and
their experience is said to be that the
masses of the people derive decided
advantages from having these deposit
cries for their savings.
The conditions of life among the
great masses of the people are, of
course. different in the old world than
they are with us, and there are not so
many institutions for the savings OF
the workingmen as We have. But it
may be of interest to note the growth
of the postal savings bank in Great
Britain and to realize what factor it
has been in helping people who would
not be reached by other savings banks.
The figures that are given in recent
report as to the postal savings banks in
England, Scotland aud Ireland are
startling, There are 1900 pOstOiices
at which deposits are received daily,
and any sum from p cents to $3.50 may
bs deposited in one year, interest being
paid on all sums that are multiple of
50 aud is compounded Depositors
may, if they choose, have their sceumu-
lated deposits invested in government
bonds, and small savings can be made
by the purchase of postage stamps
which, when they reach q certain
amount, are recorded as deposits.
| There are 6OO0 schools in which the
children are encouraged to save in this
way, and a postofflce clerk comes to
the school at intervals to receive the
stamps and furnish pass books. In
1893 there we're nearly 100000 de-
posits made, aggregatiug sl23,GO0,0OO,
and at the end of that year the sggre-
gate deposits in postal savings banks
was 1902, 10000, while, besides this,
l69,3l1 deposltors held s3l,5OOOOO of
government bonds.
Increase Of facilities for s4ylng and
obtaining g small interest OE accumu-
lations must have an effect on the
tebaracter as well as the wealth Of the
Philadelphia Inquirer.

II the published reports, that Au-
tonic Maoeo, the Cuban insurgent gen
erai, was shot by the Spanish while ad-
yancing under a flag of truce to con-
ference of Spanish request, be true,
then Spain has abandoned all pretext
Of honorable warfare aud is stopping
to cold-blooded murder. Since man
has wsged var the emblem of truce mas
been sacredIy respected by all peoples;
even the barbarian hordes that have
IN time past disputed the advance of
civilization recognized the white en-
blem as indicating that its bearers
mission was one of peace, and have &C
corded a safe advance aud an unmoiest-
ed retreat. The Spanish are said to
have violated this rule Of war, as she
has pretty nearly every other principle
OF honest strife, aud should be regard
ed By other nations as wsging, not war,
but red-hauded murder. How much
longer can the United States, in justice
to humanity, allow the butchery in
Cuba to continue?

The Turkish government takes UNI
bragg at President Cleveland's message
and demands retraction. Cleveland's
reference to the Turkish atrocities did
not mince matters. He said: awe have
been afflicted by continued and not IN
frequent reports of the wantoh destruc-
ton of the homes and the bloody butch
cry of men women aud children. made
martyrs to theiFprOfessiOn of Christian
faith" Severe though this arFaign-
ment may be, it appears to be bourne
ont by published accounts of the riots
in Armenia. The Turks are probably
not wholly to blame, but yet it is more
than improbable to believe Mr.. Cleve-
land will modify his language.

THE PACIFIC ROADS

The Pacific railroads and the govern
ment have at last reached point at
which a settlement must be had. On
January l, 1897, about 100000 Of
subsidy bonds fall due and the govern
ment will be forced to make its guarn-
tee good by paying them. During the
year following 100000 more will fall
due aud the government will have to
meet them also.
The governments position in the
matter of the Pacific railroads jobbery
is that of a swindled victim. Furnish
lug the means to build them, its secur-
! ity liens have been made second to
others, which would have to be paid off
should the government fOreclOse on the
property.
The history of the transaction smells
to heaven of fraud. No honest effort
has been made by the roads to meet
the outstanding obligations, but in
stead systematic mismanagement has
been INDUCED in to the end that the
government should be forced to stand
the loss, The roads are now in the
hands of a receiver
The payment Of the bonds and fore
closure seems the only course open to
the government. Such a proceeding,
however, would be accompanied by the
forced payment of the preferred claims,
which amount to many millions.
Should the government fOreGlose on
the property it would be forced to bid
it in and operate it to protect itself.
This would be practical ownership, and
establish a criterion of the practicable
ity of public ownership of railways.
The government for years has posed
as an institution that could be robbed
with impunity, and the public will
watch With interest the action of CON
gress in regard to this matter. The
history OF the past may be repeated.

THE republican party is the friend
and fosterer of trusts. It's legislation
has rendered to allow combinations of
men to live and thrive on the necessi-
ties of the people. Although there is
a law of congress against the creation
and maintenance Of trusts and eombi-
nations, 1t has never been executed
against the trusts themselves, at which
said law was aimed, but it was used to
suppress labor organizations in their
efforts to resist a reduction of wages
! It was suggested by several senators
at the time the law was passed that
the law would be prevented to suppress
organized labor. They claimed that
the law would not be executed against
anybody but the helpless laboFers
These predictions have been verified
and today we find that nOtwithstand'
| ing an anti trust law is on our statute
books. trusts are multiplying as never
before, and that they are forming theiI
unlawful combinations without let OF
hindrance.

The president gave the trusts a few
hearty slaps. in mis- recent message.
He said; Through them the farmer,
the artisan and the small trader is in
danger of dislodgment from che proud
position of being his own master,
watchfni of all that touches his couu-
try's prosperity, in which he has an in-
didual lot, and interested in ali that
affects the advantages Of business of
which he is a factor, to be relegated to
the level of a mere appurtenance to a
great machine, with little hope or OPP
pOrtunity OF rising in the scale CT re-
sponsibie and helpful citizenship" He
doubts the efficacy of federal legisla-
lation, save in cases involving interstate
commerce. but says "there can be no
doubt of the power of the several states
to act effectively in the premises, and
there should be no reason to doubt
their willingness to iudiciously exer.
else such power"
