THE business of country banks is built
largely upon the confidence of the
community in which they are situated
The failure of the bank at Stoughton
like that which occurred in our own city
two years ago will no doubt cause some
uneasiness among people who intrust
their money to banks for safe keeping
and for this reason nearly every institu
ton in this section will in a measure
feel the effect of the collapse in that it
lessons the confidence of people in banks
in general. While there is an abundance
of money accommodating in the vaults Of
banks with very little demand for loans,
the temptation is great to take invest
ments that do not always turn out well.
This is more especially true where banks
pay interest on deposits, practice which
there can no longer be much excuse.
1t seems to US the time has come in this
section of the country for banks to cease
paying interests on deposits and banks
who continue to do 50 will be looked up
on with more or less suspicion. Banks
can afford to let money of depositors pile
up in the vaults if it costs them nothing
but if interest on it is to be met, it is
quite another proposition. The business
of banking is to loan money not to hire

shall We Increase the SCHOOL Board.

The annual school meeting which takes
place next month can, if it chooses,
adopt a law, passed by the last legisla-
ture, increasing its school officials to
seven members to be known as the
school board The law was intended to
give just such towns as our own the OPP
pOrtunity to place the responsibility of
the conduct of the public schools in the
hands of board rather than three per-
sons In great many communities this
is considered desirable. We present the
provisions of this law that the friends of
our schools may give it careful attention
and be prepared to take some action in
relation to it at our annual school meet
ing if it is thought to be advisable:
SECTION t. Any school district containing
within its boundaries a city with d population
according to the state census of 1898 exceeding
fifteen hundred, in which high school is
maintained, and which expended in the year
ending July 1St 1885, in the maintenance of it's
schools, q sum exceeding four Thousand dollars
may upon determining so to do by the vote of
the electors present at any annual school meet
ing held In such school district, have a dis
trict board comprising seven members which
shall be known as the school board OF the city,
comprising in whole or in part such district
three OfWhOm shall be the director, treasurer
and clerk, as now provided by law, who shall
each discharge the separate duties now i'm
posed upon him by law, and shall be elected
and hold Office for the term now provided by
law And all directors, clerks and treaSurerS
now in office in such districts, shall continue in
their respective offices during the full term
for which they were elected. The remaining
four members of such district board, shall be
elected as school district officers are now re
quired to be elected, at the annual school meet
ing which may adopt this act; two of said four
shall be elected for the period of one year and
the remaining two for the period Of two years,
and until their successors have been elected or
appointed Atevery succeeding annual school
meeting in such district, there shall be elected
in addition to director. clerk or treasurer,
as the case may be, two of such additional
members of such board who shall hold their
Office for two years and until their successors
are elected or appOinted. In case of vacancies
in the said board, such vacancies shall be filled
now provided for filling vacancies in district
boards. All members of said board so elected
shall be residents OF such school district. Such
school boards shall exercise all the powers,
and discharge all the duties now imposed upon
the district boards of such districts. Regular
meetings of said board shall be held, and spec
ial meetings thereof may be called upon re-
quest of any three members of such board to
the clerk, who shall thereupOn at least twenty
four hours before such special meeting is held,
give written notice thereof to the remaining
members of the board.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1899-06-23

A GOOD deal of newspaper discussion
is going on concerning the action of
Governor Scofield in withholding the APP.
preparations made for state institutions
by the late legislature. When it is all
over we imagine the governor will have
plenty of endorsement with the public.
When the legislature appropriated over
100000 more than the revenue laws are
estimated to yield during the ensuing
two years, it did so in the face of the
warning message of the governor in the
last days of the session, in which he
urged upon the Legislature to make pro-
vision for an increase in the revenues
sufficient to meet the expenditures au-
thorized. The legislature failed to act
upon the governors recommendation,
leaving it to the secretary of state tolevy
a state tax under the statute provision
authorizing him to increase the state
tax when it appears that the tax levied
by the legislature is insufficient to meet
the expenditures authorized. 1t is now
reported that the governor intends to
hold up the appropriations as he is au
thorized to do. The governor contends
that the law does not permit the secre-
tary of state to levy state tax and that
if it did it would violate the constitution
which expressly provides that. the leg
islature shall levy an annual tax sutfi-
cient to defray the estimated expenses
of the state. If this is the position tax
en- by the governor it is eminently the
correct one. The governor in refusing to
allow expenditures to be made is adher
ing to the rule laid down by him in his
special message to the legislature, in
which he said he should permit no
buildings to be built for which funds
were not raised to meet the appropria-
ton. The governor in doing this inclines
to his original belief that no state taxes
should be raised by the secretary of state
without authority of the legislature.
The buildings which the governor re-
fuses to sanction are the new buildings
for the Penal and Charitable institutions,
the new Engineering and Dairy School
buildings for the university, the hospital
building and for the State Veterans
home at Waupaca, besides several addi-
tions to state normal schools.

Aluminium for Small Coins.

Experiments have been carried on at
the United States mint in Philadelphia
with a view of ascertaining the fitness
of aluminium for minor coins. Some TO-
600 blanks of the size of the nickel o.
cent piece have been delivered at the
mint for this purpose. Congress some
time ago appointed a commission of
experts to investigate and report upon
this subject, and the experiments above
referred to are being carried on under
the direction of it's members.

THE EASTERN CEMETERY.

TO the Editor of the Press:
do not think our people are aware of
the MANY strangers who coming to Port
land. visit the Eastern Cemetery. It IL
the Mecca of hikto rical pilgrims, and
spending much time there myself, I have
always been impressed by the courtesy Of
MIR. Hoauley, the sexton. He knows every
grave and the ancestry Of the occupant,
and can tell the searcher about all be
wishes TO know. From disorder and rude
loafers, he has freed the enclosures; and
the trinity cut paths and shrubbery and
Strengthened slabs speak of his untiring
work. The man loves the place, aud it
seems to many that he should not be
obliged to divide his time with the Vest
ern Cemetery, but devote every moment
to this historic spot. They left us a
precious heritage, In our lovely city. and
| In return for this, let Us care for them as
they rest 90 the hillside looking toward
the sea. The Revolutionary and naval
heroes, the ship masters of old Portland,
the artist, the jurist and the divine. Why
may not Mir. Hoadley be allowed all his

And he is pretty likely 70 have his way
unless the representatives Of the general
interest are equally weli-informed. The
country towns are no more addicted to
the system Of rotation In office than the
cities; and every argument that applies
to the towns applies TO the cities But
as the towns are claiming just now to be
especially burdened, the lesson seems to
lie nearer to them. of course the selec-
