Mrs. A. Hurd, of Harbor Springs,
wants the state to pay her for COW
killed by a buck deer, and has put
in her claim to the board of state
auditors. She says the deer chased
her COW and killed it, and inasmuch
as she is prevented by the state from
killing the deer, she thinks the state

hand and they dare not break away
from him. The House, which is Han
nacratic, refuses to consider the brib-
erv charges. And doubtless the Sen
ate investigation will be smothered
This is a serious matter. There is
no enemy Of our American institutions
so deadly as the constant and growing
use of money in elections. When re-
venge, personal or political, is sought
and the individual has money to spend
he will resort to every known political
trick in the use Of that money to wreak
his vengeance upon his political oppo-
nent. This has been manifested all
along the last election in Ohio when
Hanna used these methods in his war
on the Foraker and Bushnell people.
Every sane man knows that Hanna
could never have been elected by a
vote of the people. He received a
minority of that vote, while the State
ticket received tremendous majority
And no intelligent man believes that
he could have been elected Senator at
all if he had not had large sums of
money expended in his behalf. Strip
ped of his money, where would he have
been landed? Stripped Of the inf1u-
ence Of the administration at his back,
where would he have landed?
1t would seem from this instance.
that manhood in politics no longer ex-
lists. Is it not a rapidly growing truth
in this country that money controls,
and that political positions are things
Of bargain and sale like horse or an
OK? There will be as surely day OF
reckoning and revenge as effect follows
cause. Our own country will be no eX-
ception. Revolution is the child OF
corruption and tyranny. There is no
safety but in honesty, there is no hon
esty in making bribery the controlling
feature of elections, and there is no
wav that each man can be free to cast
his vote according to his honest con-
yictions but by changing the method
of political campaigns. To serve the
people is the highest order OF CIVIC
duty. AS it is, in Ohio, for instance,
the voter is made subservient to the
candidate, whereas the canolddte
should be the peoples servant.

A NEW VIEW OF POSTAL SA"INEs
BANKS.

Yesterday the Register published
communication from Mr. William Y.
Welles. of Parkersburg, on the SUBJECT
of postal savings banks, scheme that
has gained tremendous popularity IN
a very short time and probably will be
adopted by Congress unless the inter-
ests opposed to it are able to bring
stronger pressure to bear than popular
sentiment can exert
The main idea behind the postal
savings bank plan is that it will induce
thousands of people to save their
money and gain a percentage IN inter-
est on it, who now spend it or hoard
it in hooks and corners because they
are afraid to intrust it to bank,
They read daily of bank failures and
are afraid of the banks, but they be-
lieve the bond Of the government is
safe or if it isn't, nothing on this
mundane sphere in the way of financial
investment is safe for them to touch.
Mr.. Welles's criticism of the postal
savings bank idea is new and is GER
tainly worthy of consideration. To be-
gin with he makes it clear that under
the postal savings bank idea a citizen
would go to his postoffice and deposit
so much money and take in return
therefor a certificate of the govern
ment bearing interest, that certificate
becomes at once a government bond,
practically on the same level with
every other bond of the government.
In other words, these savings of
the people deposited with the govern
ment, must be placed on the debit side
of the national ledger and added to
our national debt. 1t is Mr.. Welless
idea, as we take it, that the govern
ment, instead of establishing postal
savings banks, might as we'll agree to
sell it's bonds in any amount no mat
ter how small to the public in general
at any and all times, regardless of its
requirements.
The point of Mr. Welles's criticism,
however, is this: Would not this sys-
tenn which would take from the money
of the people not less than 100000, 900
a year. cause frightful contraction in
the currency? If this money is in the
hands of the people or the banks it
is practically in circulation, but if it is
in the hands of the government it is
locked up. In order to prevent enor-
| nous currency contraction, how under
the postal savings bank plan, can this
| money be taken by the government and
at the same time kept in circulation?
The only way the government can keep
money in circulation is to spend it.
and Mr.. Welles points to this fact as
another and very powerful argument
against the postal savings bank
scheme, declaring that that way out of
the difficulty must inevitably lead to
governmental extravaganza of the
| widest and most profligate kind.
1t will be interesting to have these
points discussed by our national law
makers when they take up the postal
savings bank idea.

NO NEW POLICY.

President Dole, of Hawaii, is to be
the nations guest. Everyone knows
WHY Dole is here. He is an emissary of
a handful of white spectators IN
Hawaii who have seized the govern
ment of those islands and now are try
ing to make profit out OF their ac-
auisition at the expense Of the United
States Government. In this country
they are aided by the Sugar Trust,
which made Hawaiian annexation an
anti-election consideration with Han
ma in return for election Doodle. Hanna
pledged the present administration to
annexation and, of course, the present
administration, which has no mind OF
its own that it dare assert, will carry
out that pledge as far as it lies in its
power to do so. 1t cuts no figure with
Mckinley that to annex these far
away South Sea Islands will be dan
gerous departure for this country to
make from its time-honored policy.
For Mckinley is nothing more nor less
than the creature of Hanna.
There are very grave considerations
beyond the undesireability of these
islands as a part of our country and
of their mongrel and half-savage pop
ulation as a part of our citizenship.
The United States has borne the repu-
tation of being satisfied with its wide
and compact domain, and the prodi-
gious resources of that domain, par
tial development of which has placed
it in the front rank of nations. The dis
position of the United States to make
the most of what it has, and not to cast
longing eyes from home, has been a
source of strength to it. It's freedom
from cupidity has been the means of
the great powers which are ever
watching for and Selling opportunities
10 get as much of the earths surface
as they can. This respect it has won
has had much to do with its success
in enforcing the Monroe doctrine.
Evincing no greed for more territory,
foreign powers that they shall net
seek aggrandizement in any portion of
North or South America. The reason
in this demand has been appreciated
by foreign powers, and when in their
dealings with the Western world they
have been told by the United States
desiSted
But of late the disposition of the
United States has been undergoing a
change. A great deal is being said
nowadays to the effect that this nation
must be aggressive like other nations,
and enter into the general scramble
which is materialiZing at present in
a movement for the possession of the
far-away Hawaiian Islands, BODIES i'll
Let other nations once understand that
the United States is grasping and it
will not be so easy as it has been to
preserve the integrity of the Monroe
doctrine They will conclude that the
real purpose Of that doctrine is to
keep them from gobbling what the
United States may see fit to gobble in
due time, and they will not be so will
ing to abide by its restraints. Thus
far the Monroe doctrine has been en-
forced by proclamation; but after the
annexation of Hawaii measures of a
more extensive character are likely
to be required.

This is the way rural dramatic
critic noticed 1.-The Isle OF Champagne
company, which will come to the Opera
House Monday, January oath. 1.-The
Isle of Champagne was presented to
a fair sized audience last night. The
opera was presented as well as it was
by the Seabrooke company. Richard
Golden fills Seabrooke's shoes admir-
ably. Katherine Germaine divides the
honors with Golden, but off the stage
she leaves Dick in the shade. She
took in the town yesterday afternoon
dressed fit to kill, and had everybody
rubber-necking after her. She wore
enough clothes and ornaments for six
women. and on her head she carried
hat as big as buggy-top. When she
passed up Main street near Sixth, and
her makeup came near frightening
horse into running away, small boy
looked up at her and said: oh, |
don't know, there are others.
The Gibneys. headed by the eminent
comedian, Margon Gibney, will be the
attraction at the Grand every night
next week in repertoire at popular
prices. This is one of the leading
companies now playing at cheap prices
and includes besides Mr.. Gibney, whose
work as the star of Charity Ball,
"The Wife, and other F'rohman at
fractions, is so favorably remembered
by Wheeling theatregoers, some Of the
best known people of the profession.
Their repertoire has been carefully Sc
lected with a view of pleasing every
one. and ranges from the farce,
Masked Monkey" to the classic
Camille" In addition to a new play,
fifteen refined specialties are introduce
ed between acts at every performance
by a vaudeville corps including John
T. Powers, Del Leon and Graham and
Leone. On Monday evening they pre-
sent one of their strongest plays, "The
Black Flag" on which occasion ladies
will be admitted at the usual bargain
price. The sale of seats opens Mon
day morning at o'clock, and prom
ises to be unusually large.
The standing room only" sign was
out early at the Grand Opera House
last night, and the attraction which
was on the boards merited such pat
ronage Isham's Octoroons is an ag-
gregation of the best musical and dra-
matte talent to be found among the
colored people who follow the stage
for a livelihood. The stellar attrac-
lions in the vocal line were Flower
and Piper, whose rendition Of difficult
selections delighted the most critical
in the audience. The selections from
grand opera with which the entertain
ment concluded were almost faultless-
ly given So great has been the desire
to see and hear the Octoroons hereto
fore that Manager Feinler arranged a
special matinee for this afternoon.
Judging by the rush for seats there
will be crowded houses at each per-
Torrance.
