the cause assigned was reassuring. Loose
methods caused the failures and not any
threatening condition in the business Of
the country. With such a situation
there is no occasion for alarm, and it is
noted with satisfaction that no alarm
is felt, even where these failures oc-
CURED, except that amount which has
caused steps to be taken to prevent any
general spread of calamity of the sort.
In West Virginia the banking business
was never in a more prosperous condi.
ton and never 50 extensive. 1t is safe
because substantial methods are employ
ed and it is extensive because the state
is active in commerce and industry. The
development Of the state has been accom-
panied by the extension and growth of
banking facilities, and the prospects of
development have associated with them
prospects for bank expansion. The con-
dtion is not only encouraging, but is
very hopeful and melting. The future
growth should be of the same substan,
tial sort of that in the recent past and
there viii be perfect safety and a
strength that will resist any reasonable
panic, although there are no evidences Of
one approaching.

BRYAN PRAISES ROOSEVELT.

There seems to be no reason to doubt
the authenticity Of Mr.. Bryan's Iowa
City interview in which he said, speak.
ing of President Roosevelt:
''tie is strong man of noble charac.
ter, and as a brave soldier, a man of
great executive ability, with wide knowl.
edge Of statecraft and politics, he is very
popular with the especially in
the West | think, however, that he and
certain members of his cabinet are not
in harmony. There is no man in the Re.
publican party, l believe, who has a
stronger hold on the rank and file Of
the American people, and there is no
one who commands the respect of the
nations to a greater degree, and who
can wicld stronger influence upon the
world at large than he"
Without seeking for any hidden 20.
IItical meaning in Mr. Bryan's tribute
to the President, it is certainly a most
remarkable cncomium, says the Dcs
Molncs Register. IT rarely happens that
any man is moved to speak so well of
his opponent, especially one the eve of
a great campaign, in which his oppon-
ents character and public service are
to be passed upon.

Two policemen, regarded trustworthy
and with good record, have confessed to
assaulting and beating young man on
the street, and they paid the fine i'm.
posed. They were either ill.advised as
to making the confession or they had no
thought OF the predicament it placed
them in. There is some demand that
they be relieved from their positions, and
1t IS asserted that it is up to the mayor
to take up their case and either dispose
OF it or turn it over to the council, but
50 far nothing has been DONE so far as
the Telegram learns. There is occasion
for regularity and the mayor should ap.
preciatc that fact. 1t is true he recog.
nizes the fact that they were hasty in
making the confession. lie also knows
The value of their services and the splen.
did records they have made. He further
realizes kcenly the extraordinary diff.
ticulty in securing policemen, and es.
pecially those who can be trusted and
are capable. Under the circumstances
the question is quite complex and it is
hard to determine just what is the best
thing to do However, to satisfy all con.
cerned, it might be well for him to give
them an eX-pNrte examination and take
such steps as will relieve him from the
responsibility of keeping on the police

guilty OF a breach OF trust Of their of.

selves, it might be well to satisfy the
public and set themselves right to make
a statement explaining their actions on
that occasion and telling why they con
fessed. This is not meant in any disre.
spcctful way toward them, for the Telc.
gram believes they deserve praise for
the fine record they have made and fur
ther believes, if thy are retained on the
force, that their SERVES will prove val
liable to the city, but there are those
who have taken advantage of the unfor-
tunatc situation the incident has brought
about to bring disrcpute on the city ad-
ministration and to dcmoraEze it. Such
being the situation, it is but proper that
steps be taken to set the matter right
The policemen should make satisfac-
tory explanation and give the assurance
that such conduct win not be repeated,
if they were really at fault in any way,
or they should be relieved Of their pc.
sitions.

lished statement to call this paper down
on a criticism Of the way things were
carried on at the opera house few
nights ago. He says he was a personal
friend of the actress and that the affair
was prearranged, but, when he was ask.
ed as to the young lady who accom-
panied him to the show. he admitted that
she knew nothing about it, and that the
actress did not know her. Such prear.
rangements are highly improper and no
such affairs should be allowed in the
theater. The management of the house
should see to it that no one, not even
Snowman, INDUCES in that sort of dis
graceful and outrageous affair again. Since
the Snowman says he was a party to it.
he deserves censue for subjecting the
young lady he was with to such NORTH.
cation, and the house to humiliation and
Indignation. The fact of the business
is no excuse can be made for such
proceeding and it is to be hoped that it
will never occur again. If the actress
ever comes back here and attempts to
play it on Show friend or any one else,
she should be elected from the stage.

Mr.. Burrows resided in New

WHOS NEXI,

Notwithstanding the fact thai
the gubernatorial campaign is YET
a long ways off, the State press is
devoting column after column OF
space in discussing the candidates
who have announced themselves
the platforms and otherwise filling
up space with 'shOt air" on the
subject.
So far three candidates have an
nOunced themselves as candidates
for this important Office-namely
General Leon Jastremski, Judge
Newton G. Blanchard, and Hon
Will II. Price, all prominent III
the ranks and file of the Demo
cracy. Others have their eyes
trained on the State House, but
for some reason or other, have not
allowed their names to appear be
fore the masses and remaing in
the rear for the present.
What the final outcome will be
remains to be seen, nevertheless
developments have already
reached a stage where the faithful
ones can disclose some matters
not as yet entirely clear to the
masses.
There is no necessity to stir up
any great amount of political ex-
element at this particular time
and our brethren of the press
ought to keep ''mum" for some
time to come. Pretty soon the
campaign will be on in earnest,
and the politicians (of which there
are any number right here at
hOme) will certainly be in their
glory. Time enough to liven up
matters this coming fall and
winter.

so doing it is but right and prop
er that I refer briefly to my past
record in the journalistic field,
which covers some seven years
since 1895 when I became Office
boy Of the Daily Iberian. Later l
was employed on the Indepen-
dent Observer for one year, then
again with the Iberian. For one

circulation manager of the Jen-
nings Daily Times. Then for
about ten months city editor and
foreman of the Abbeville Republl-
can Idea, later publisher and bust
ness manager of the Abbeville
Meridional. The latter position l
resigned to again become associat-
ed with the Iberian.
To say that am delighted to
again be in, the Queen City, and
with the old reliable Iberian is ex-
pressing myself mildly indeed, for
am more than pleased and de-
lighted, and 1 trust that my flu,
ture career will prove as pleasant
and as well as in the past.

while parish correspondence will
be looked after so far as possible.
