Hon. Charles g. Dawes, the new Comp.
troller of the Currency, has almost at
once, upon entering upon the duties of
his Office, issued an order which will be
regarded generally as thoroughly com.
nonsense proposition. Mr.. Dawes has
found that in some cases national banks
desiring to have special examinations
have been in the habit of employing
bank examiners outside of their official
capacity, and he has decided that the
stopping Of this practice will operate to
the benefit of the service and obviate
any possibility of lack of official strict.
ness with reference to any bank coming
under the examiners Jurisdiction.

Ohio Republicans and particularly
Highland county Republicans, can take
just pride in the conduct and standing
of Senator Foraker in the National Sen.
ate. He has surpassed all expectations
and at once took position in that body
which could not be obtained by others
in whole term of Office. His loyalty
to his friends seems to shine oat bright.
er and brighter in the new position tax.
en-, and there need be no fear that he
will forget or neglect those who have
been his true helpers in the past. A few
so.called Republicans, and we are sorry
to say that some Of them exists in this
county, and who are prompted by some
hope of personal advancement, have
taken it upon themselves since the late
Senatorial contest to attempt to criticize
and abuse Senator Foraker and his
friends, but their efforts will only bring
down upon themselves the contempt of
the great mass of Republicans who have
followed Senator Foraker in his gallant
fight year after year for the success of
the Republican party. This paper is
proud of its adherance to J. B. Foraker
in the past and will in the future, with.
out reserve, continue in the same path.

1t has been until recently allowable as
a practice for Treasury bank examiners
70 make private examinations OF banks
within their jurisdiction, at extra com.
pensation from such banks as for any
reason desired special examinations of
their accounts. This practice, however,
has Just been abolished by the new
Comptroller of the Currency, Mr.. Dawes,
who states that he believes the stoppage
of the practice will relieve examiners
from any suspicion that such special
employment can in any way affect the
strictness of their official duties as ap.
piled to the banks under their jurisdic
ton. The action is generally commen.
Ged as sensible one, and will be food
for thought for those persons who al
ways insist that the entire Government
is operated in the interests of the banks
Of the country.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
VIII Take About $135, 900. 900 10 Bui'd
It-Preliminary Report OF
Canal Commission.

New York. Dec 24.--The preliminary
report of the Nicaragua canal commits
sion, consisting Of Gen. Haines, Adj
miral Walker and Prof. Haupt, has
been compiled and will be read before
the senate committee either during the
Christmas recess Of congress or immedi-
ately afterward.
This report will give many details Of
construction in regard 10 the proposed
route. and will give a close figure on the
cost of the entire undertaking, as far
as human ingenuity can foresee.
A summary Of these costs has been
made out in sections.
A total OF 1l5,000,000 cubic yards of
all kinds Of excavation will be needed
10 the harbor at Brito. and allowing
100000 cubic yards for dredging at
tie western division, the total esti-
mate will come TO nearly l25 600, 600 GU
bic yards. exclusive OF all dams and en-
bankments. 1t will be seen that $685.
100000 will be conservative estimate
of the entire cost Of the canal. and this
almost agrees with that of Gen. w.
Ludlow's report of 1896.

The American National, of Lima, IL
Looted Of $4,000 I'm Gold and Cur
rency-Lenvc No CIew.

Lima. o., Dec. 27.-The American
national bank was robbed Sunday night
Of over $4,000. The stone vault was
entered without the use of tools or de-
stroying the time lock. The bank is at
Main and High streets. the most prom
inent corner In the city. When the
janitor went TO the bank Monday morn
ing he discovered the outside door OF
the vault open. The officers were no
tilted, and an investigation was made
which disclosed that the other doors
were locked. but that the vault had
been looted of all its paper money and
gold. There were two doors TO the
vault, the outer one being operated by
the time lock. The inner door was
locked with a combination lock. When
this was opened by the officers a large
sack containing 81 900 in silver. done up
in packages. was found on the chair.
where II had been left. Not dollar Of
silver had been taken, although several
sacks containing hundreds of dollars
more were found on top of the safe.
Saturday night about $4,000 was de-
posted in the vault. This was stolen,
as well as about So 900 which had been
thrown on top of the safe after IL had
been locked, the money having come in
late. Z.
There is nothing for the detectives
to work on. The manner in which the
robbery was done demonstrates. they
say, that IL was the work OF experts.
There was not a scratch left on the
vault and nothing was molested except
the money that could be easily carried
away. On top of the safe inside the
vault was large number If drafts
igned in blank. They were not taken.

TACT OF THE PRESIDENT.
william Mckinley Has shown Tha,
lie Is the President OF the
whole Country.

Nothing illustrates better the con-
summate tact OF President Mckinley
than his course at Atlanta. Not only
has he won the golden opinions OF the
people OF the south by his concilatory
speeches, but he has accomplished
something more important than that
lie has gained for his course during the
war the warm approval OF the demo
cratic legislature of Georgia, and the
Endorsement of the people Of the south
for his policy concerning the questions
growing out Of the war.
A duller and less tactful man would
have failed to see the opportunity Of
which President Mckinley took adj
vantage. While Bryan and the demo
Gratis in congress were preparing 10
make an issue Of anti-imperialism. the
president invaded the very stronghold
OF the democracy. and with few sim
pie speeches carried conviction 10 the
hearts OF the people.
or course this may have little effect
upon the democratic demagogues In
congress who are determined TO Mt
tack the course OF the president during
the war and call in question the
wisdom OF the policy believed 10 have
been adopted for the disposition Of the
questions growing out OF the war. but
