Western Ways Don't Go Here

-,
A young man who performed the wild
west act at Milton and GAINESVILLE early
in the week has ended brief bat excit-
ing career. A robbery and two hold ups
was all there was to it. The Gazette of
Tuesday furnishes the closing chapter:
After twenty-four hours sojourn in the
city lock-up, Richard James Lester, alias
r. j. Lawrence, the man VINO held up
Connie McDonalds restaurant Sunday
night, broke down this morning. When
confronted by the facts concerning the
robbery of w. w. Clarke's store in Mil
ton and the evidence which pointed un-
mistakenably to him, Lester confessed
to Sheriff Appleby that be was the bur
glar. He said he cut the glass Of the
windows and robbed the tills of $40 and
some counterfeit money and old coins.
He said he was tired of the insane
racket" when one didn't get enough to
eat He acknowledged taking Will
Pauls shirt away from him at the point
OF gun and also helping himself to a
livery rig being driven by one of the men
in the employ of Liveryman Thompson.
He denied that he hit the driver, assert
ing that he persuaded him to get out
and hold the horses head, and then
drove off without him.
Lester said he would plead guilty and
was brought up in the municipal court
this afternoon. He was given one year
in Waupun, the minimum sentence.

Civic Pride.

Many persons who would blush to
be accused of lack of patriotism, or a
love of country. have no hesitancy in
confessing to deficiency in civic
pride, of regard for their own city.
They openly proclaim that they
dotest the place they live in, but say
that fate and circumstances have
chained them to the spot, and they
find vent for their feelings in rail-
ing against the city and in pointing
out its blemishes. The thought that
they might help to better these condi-
tions does not seem to enter their
minds. and the idea that it Is better
to make an effort toward tbs ttttcr-
plent than to accept them placidlv or
merely to shrug their shoulders over
them is quite beyond their considera.
ton. The individual who points out
defects for the purpose of wiping them
out is benefactor, but the one who
is blot seeker merely out of sinis-
ter regard for this pursuit is himself
one of the greatest of the blots -

AS TO POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS

The amount OF deposits in the saw
inRs banks OF the state of New York at
this time Is over 81, 600, 600, 600. the
increase during the past ten years hav
ing been in excess OF $400. 600. 600.
These deposits are chiefly from wage
earners in the cities. Remarking
upon this AN eastern paper says that
it has been for some time apparant
that il there would be devised sys-
tenn that would be convenient for
those who live in the so-called rural
siderably larger. England meets this
need through the establishing of her
postal savings banks. These are in
every postofiice in the kingdom.
There it happens that the number of
depositors throughout England in
these postal savings banks is. proper
tionately to the depositors, much
greater than is the case in New York
state. II some method could be
perfected says this paper, ''by
which those who live in the farming
districts were able to deposit their
small savings it is estimated that the
total savings each year would be in
creased several million dollars
There would be no great difficulty
in devising perfectly practicable
postal savings bank system and no
class Of our people would more readily
avail themselves of it than those in
the rural communities. The tendency
of such system as has frequently
been pointed out. would be to en-
courage saving among the people gem
orally. because it would assure alb
solute safety. The English system is
most satisfactory in it's operations and
one Of it's advantages to the govern
ment was shown when the recent loan
WAS offered. applications for large
amount coming from postal savings
bank depositors Thus far the oppo-
sition of the private savings banks in
this country has been able to defeat
efforts for establishing postal savings
banks, but there is no doubt the sys-
TEN will come in time, for it is un-
questionably a popular idea. Omaha

One of the most important enact
ments of the last session of congress
has come to light this week. 1t is a
provision which was oovertly inserted
in the agricultural appropriation bill,
authorizing the secretary of the treas
ury prohibit the importation of all
food products pronounced adulterated
by the department of agriculture, all
food products, the labels on which
fail to show where they were produced
aud all such as cannot be legally sold
in the countries in which they are
produced or from which they are ex-
ported. 1t is estimated that at the
present time there are not less than
$40. 900, 600 worth of imports which
will come within the prohibition of
this law. ~ this amount one-half is
represented by wines aud cordials. the
remainder being made up of various
articles. This law will prevent the
prevalent practice of exporting to the
United States as French wines the
products Of Spain, Italy, California
wines previously pur, hased for blend
ing purposes. etc. also German meats
and delicatessen articles most of which
are preserved by the use of borax. etc
Probably never before have such
wide discretionary powers been con-
ferred on member of the cabinet as
are impaired by this bill. DIR. Wiley
chief chemist OF the department Of
agriculture. who is the author of the
clause further calls attention to the
fact that it may be used for retaliatory
purposes with countries which raise
uuwarrsnted objection to the impor-
tation of American food products
because Of the use Of preservatives.
