the country. and but lathE has been
heard Of the plan OF late. The post
office department. however. has evolved
practical scheme to make the expert
mert of postoffice savings banks ON q
less extensive gcale. and it goes into
efreet at once, by simple order from
the first assistant postmaster general
without having to wait for congress
slonal authority to either begin or dis
continue it. The desired end is reached
by merely authorizing the postmasters
CT the United States to issue money
orders payable at their own Offices
This makes the postofiice a savings
bank. Though with certain disadWan-
tages to Offset the advantages to be
derived from 1t. One of these disad-
Eot emily pay no interest on deposits,
but will require payment for the privi-
lege of deposlting, the fee for this pur-
pose running from three cents to 30
cents. according to the amount de-
posted. Many people. mo doubt, will
think this disadvantage enough to
negative the whole scheme. SO far as
they are concerned. while others will
gladly pay the required sum because of
the absolute security gained thereby.
Whatever elise this government savings
bank may or may rot do. it will not
break, and the depositor can always
depend on getting his money on de-
mand. Another disadvantage will be
that the deposit will not be flexible, as
in ordinary banks. Only the exact
amount deposited can be withdrawn;
but. Of course. a person using the
scheme regularly will have postal notes
for various sums and can use the one
that comes nearest to the amount de-
sired. The plan may net fulfiM all ex-
pectations, but 1T will at least give the
people Of the country a chance to ex-
press their views ON the subject in the
most practical form.

the mind of a Maine man naturally

am reminded of what Gen. Macarthur
said to me the other day concerning
our Maine regiment, which, when we
left San Francisco was still quartered
at Chickamauga. Gen. Macarthur
was at Chickamauga when the
Maine boys arrived FROM their long
trip across the country, and he says
he was impressed at once BY their SOL
dierly bearing and excellent equip
ment. He said twas the finest reg
iment there. and when Gen. Merritt
was assigned to the commend of the
Philippine expedition. e.gGen. Mac
Arthur, telegraphed Gen. Merritt to

the finest body of men at Chickamau-
ga. Gen. Merritt did so but for some
reason or other his request was re-
fused. At Gen. MacAr.hur's urging he
made second application for the
Maine boys and second time his re-
quest was refused. SO you see how

Maine day at the ST. John exposition
last week, was a great success. Gov
ernor Powers and his staff were given
a grand reception and the hundreds of
Maine people in attendance We're
shown every courtesy possible. The St.
John Globe under the heading "Wel-
come" had this pleasantly worded ed
itorial: Maine and New Brunswick
are near neighbors. They should be
close friends. There ought to be no
petty rivalry between them, but there
is rivalry, which closer intimacy
would soften. Just now, all over Cam
ada, there is a wave of strong senti-
mental feeling towards the United
States, and there is full appreciation
of the desire of England to go hand in
hand with her daughter in America.
New Brunswick shares in the good feel
ingand sready TODD her part in assist
ing the great English speaking peoples
to a better understanding of each
other. In all of which this journal
heartily concurs. Therefore, as a lead
ing organ of public opinion, as the rep
resentative of great constituency of
men, women and children in this prov
ince. the Globe heartily welcomes all
visitors from Maine and the other
places of the United States who are
here today, wishing them and their
country prosperity, and praying that
peace and good will may prevail be-
tween the Canadian, American and
English people"
