1t is now pretty well settled that the
state will carry the case up to the court
of appeals. In the meantime, the prices
on dispensary liquors will probably be
reduced so as to compete with outside
competition, and every effort will be
made to continue the suppression of such
illicit traffic as is not protected under the
decision of Judge Simonton.

- The last Indian company of the
United States army was mustered Out
of service last Monday, and although
more than half of the members were
desirous Of re-enlistment, they were
denied the privilege. Hereafter the
government will have no more Indians
as soldiers. The idea of making sol
diers of the Indians originated with
the late Captain George D. Wallace
and for a while promised to be grea,
success. That, however, was while
Captain Wallace was still alive and
had charge of the experiment. 1t is
said that he understood the Indian
character better than any other officer
of the army, and that the Indian:
had so much confidence in him that
they were willing to do whatever he
would say. He organized several
companies and had them assigned to
his own, the 7th regiment. They
made splendid soldiers, took much
pride in Uncle Sans uniform and were
the envy Of such of their brethren as
were unable to secure places in the
ranks. After the death of Captain
Wallace, however, the Indians began
to grow dissatisfied and restless OF
restraint. The officers were not in
clined to humor them, and punish

that position and for the responsible
ties OF motherhood. If a woman suffers
from weakness and disease of the organs
that make wifehood and motherhood pos

before assuming the responsibilities of a

of proving happy and capable wife, and
motherhood will always menace her with

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

n ISPATCHES from New York are to the
] effect that canvass of the presidents OF
- prominent banking institutions in that city
has disclosed the fact that most of them opposed
to the proposed postal bank system. Very few OF
them, it is said, willing to express opinions for
publication, but most of them virtually agreed with
a statement of President Mason OF the Bank of New
York, that the country possesses already all the
banking accommodation it needs
Since the bankers did not definitely express oppo-
ston to the postal bank scheme it may be doubted
whether the conclusion drawn by the canvasser
that all OF them antagonistc is justified On an
issue of this kind there is considerable difference
between noncommitta attitude and that of hostil-
lty. The men who doubtful Of the wisdom of the
measure because on first consideration they do not
see how 1t could be made practicable under our Gov
eminent may become firm supporters OF it if the bill
submitted to Congress proves to be we'll devised.
The statement that the country has all the banking
accommodation it needs could hardly have been
seriously advanced by banker having relations with
the nation at large Only in the cities and the more
populous and wealthy sections OF the provinces are
banking facilities adequate to the requirements of the
people. In many parts of the Union there are vast
areas OF country in which there are banking &C
commodatons at ALL The result of this is that money
becomes congested in the financial centers while out
JAiiS NlSbiIStS have hot the means OF carrying on
their industrial and commercial development except
under terms too onerous to be profitable.
Up to this time objection of an unanswerable
character has been made to the measure. On the
other hand, the arguments for it set forth by the
postmaster General remains unassailable Postal
banks will draw to the channels of trade large
amounts OF money now boarded because of lack of
confidence in private banks. They will incte to
thrift and saving among people of small means and
to that extent improve the moral and material con-
dition OF the people. They will carry banking ia
cilities to all parts of the Union and give residents
OF remote districts something of an equality with
those of the cities more populous counties.
These benefits certainly of sufficient impor.
lance to make it worth while trying to attain them
The trial, moreover will not be rash and unheard
OF experiment. Postal savings banks exist in most
OF the civilized nations Of the earth and have not
proven injurious to private banks or to any other
industry of the community On the contrary they
have been advantageous to bankers as well as TO
others by increasing the of cash available for
business. What has proven itself so beneficial else
where is hardly likely to be total failure in America
and for that hesitate believe the bankers
OF New York have been so unanimous in opposing
the measure as has been represented by the recent
dispatches.
