POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

The report of the comptroller of the cur
rency for 1897 gives figures relating to
bank failures for the last year. which af-
ford conclusive evidence of the absolute
necessity of safer places of deposit for
persons of small means. The following
table shows the number and percentage
of bank failures for the year:
Banks in
Glass. existence. Failures.
National banks ........... 3,619 50
State. banks and trust
panies NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 4,099 Sc
Savings banks ............ 1878 IS
Private banks and bank
erS .....--..s.a.....-...-.. 3,6Z6 A
Totals .................12.Sl7 100
Commenting on these figures, the Chi
cago Record says;
The striking fact of the table is in the
figures showing that the percentage OF
failures among savings banks IS the high
est of any class, or 1-49 per cent, whereas
Institutions that receive in trust the saw
sOundest of all The smallest percentage
of failures is for the national banks. in
stitutions patrOnized almost exclusively
by the Well-tO-dO.
In the face of these figures it is diff
heult to see how any intelligent person
can have the heart to oppose the estab-
Ishment of postal savings banks, which
would give to the Wage-earners and other
persons of limited means absolute security
for their small deposits. There are those
who profess to see in the postal savings
system the specter of paternalism, from
the influence of which they would protect
the WOrkinguen of this free and glorious
republic at all hazards. We are of opin-
ion, however, that the WOrklngmen OF
this country would be better of if they
were afforded less protection against. pa
ternalism and other theoretical dangers

against old age or adversely

A CRITICAL TIME

Sick or Well, A Rush Night and

The Packers at the Battle Of San

Their Heroic Efforts in Getting

Front Saved the Day.

3, writing from Santiago, De Cuba,
on July 23d, says: eve all had
dlarrhoea in more or less violent
form, and when we landed We had
no time to see doctor, foi it was
= case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied
with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain Collie, Chol.
era and Diarrheoa Remedy, we
were able TO keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincerely be-
lieve that at one critical time this
medicine was the indirect savior of
our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would
have been no way of getting sup~
plies to the front. There were no
roads that wagon train could use.
My comrade and myself had the
good fortune to lay in supply of
this medicine for our pack-train
before we left Tampa, and I know
in four cases it absolutely sayed
