OBLIGATIONS OF DIRECTORS.

one Of our North Carolina correspondents
saws that there Is considerable crit'-
cism over the loose way In which the
directors and officials of the defunct bank
at Newbern looked after Its affairs"
We do not know anything about this
particular case, and we do not mean, In
the absence Of knowledge, to criticise
these particular officers. But we take oc-
caslons to say once more that bank d.
rectors who fall to DO their duty In this
respcct are guilty Of criminal negligence.
It will not do for such officials to take
things for granted. When a man accepts
a position on the board of directors OF
bank he puts himself under a sacred
obligation to the stockholders. It IS his
business to investigate and not to be de-
tered by any tender consideration for
the feelings Of those who handle the
banks money. Directors ought to be cour-
teous, to be sure. but they ought to be
business-like. They ought to know every
day. as far as It Is possible for them tc
know, how the affairs of the bank are be:
ing conducted. They ought to see tina
every official Is doing his duty honestl,
and efficiently.
When bank Is wrecked by dishones
official it Is not enough for the board o
directors to fold their hands In com
posure. and say they did not know. The.
| may be personally honest. and they ma!
have had no part whatever In the rob
berry, but II the robbery was made posi-
BILE by their failure to do their duty. the!
are to that extent guilty. No man ha
moral right to accept any position o
trust, and then fall to discharge the du
ties involved. II he has not the time or tn
inclination to discharge his duty faithfull
and efficiently, he ought to resign. Man
bapk has been wrecked through tn
carelessness Of Its directors. and In al
such cases the directors are only les
guilty than the thief who got the none,

PROTECT THE PRIMARY,

letter from Culpeper in yesterdays
issue OF this paper says that the pure
elections law was not complied with In
that county as 1t should have been-that
It was only observed by one or two of the
candidates.
We arc sorry to hear such a COM
plant The primary election Is the peo-
pies forum-the great court for the
masses to meet and decide upon the
merits OF candidates offering for offices.
They ought to protect 1t. They should
see to 1t that every law pertaining to 1t
is faithfully executed. The enemies OF the
system will point to each default IN carry
Ing 1t out as reason why It should be
abolished. The people do not want It
abolished. but II they would perpetuate
It they must make It successful To make
II successful every rule and regulation
OF the party, every requirement OF the

We repeat that it Is to the interest of
tho people to the Interest especially of
tho qualified voters, to safeguard tho pri,
mary election system. To this end existing
laws should be Inspected. and where ew-
perIence shows that they are faulty, the,
should be amended as soon as possible.

who are chief among the Investigators
refuse n saw ms vet that tholr discoveries
are OF great Importance.
What they do say Is that one little c'ew
leads TO another, and nobody hides any
thing. or tries to hide anything, from
his colleagues. Professor Duguet' an
eminent Paris physician and professor
IN the French Academysof Medicine oe'
clares that the experiments hitherto MADE
there have revealed nothing on which 70
base scientiflc treatment. He Is quoted
IN n telegram to tho Chicago 1nter-Ocean

the largest hospitals In Paris has made
me most skeptical. Believe me- 'hese
cures are not definite" n
The Middlesex Hospital in London Is
the pioneer in cancer research IN tha'
country. The doctors there authorize a
tho positive statement that while they
do not claim to have effected anything
like a cure by means Of the H-ray ana
Finsen light treatments. yet suffering
from cancer has been relieved.
That is something! It Is. at least, an
advance, and the diligence and persls-
tence OF these gentlemen give good hope
that they will eventually find something
that will greatly lessen the mortality
from cancer. with the investigation at
Its present stage, they are right to hold
out no false hopes. They are working
hard and doing all they can to find
cure, and It will not be their fault If
success does not crown their efforts.
