A SHINING EXAMPLE
RECEIVER EASTMAN
Pays All Obligations of Broken Bank
at Vancouver in Contrast With
Edm;ston's Bank.

Vancouver. Wash.-Receiver A. B
Eastman, of the defunct First Nation
al bank, has paid off most all the
claims Oh the bank at 100 cents on
the dollar. Some checks are held yet
for the creditors. There are yet a
few assets TO realize on, and the sum
realized will be used to pay interest
to depOsitOrs in the bank, which
failed in April, 1901.
The speedy AMI most satisfactory
settlement Of the outstanding liabilf-
ties amounting to about $40 900 more
than the assets has won for Receiver
Eastman much praise The receiver
ship has been quite inexpensive and
the payments on the claims made
with promptness.
Not a creditor lost a dollar. though
this was considered one Of the worst
bank failures in the history Of the
state at the time. The stockholders
nave settled the assessments levied
against them without litigation. The
receiver has not commenced an &C
ton at law in single case. which
makes the settlement of affairs more
creditable.
Within sixty days the affairs of the
bank Will be wound up entirely.

Washington, D. C.-Mr. l. G. Pow
ers the chief statistician for agricul-
ture for the census bureau, believes
that the way to solve the problem of
negro lynchings, especially so far as
the north is concerned, is to insure
speedy trials Of all negroes accused of
outrages upon white women. Mr..
Powers has given a good deal of care
full study to this question, and being
a political economist Of wide reputa-
ton, his views are entitled to atten-
ton. For years prior to coming to
Washington Mr.. Powers was labor
commissioner Of Minnesota. where he
set standards which have not been
reached by any Of his successors, and
his occasional articles on economic
questions have been widely dis
cussed. He calls attention to what he
thinks was the first, or one of the
first, cases of outrage in the north.
1t occurred in the summer of 1868.
while the 114th New York volunteers
were enrOute home to be mustered
out. One Of the camp followers Of
the regiment was a negro from the
south. One day in August this negro
| assaulted an aged white woman who
was picking blackberries in the woods
OF Chenango county, New York She
reported the case to deputy sheriff
| who lived near her home, and within
an hour afer the commission of the
! crime the negro was under arrest
He was taken to Norwich, the county
| seat, five miles distant, where the
court was in session, an Indictment
| was returned Immediately, a trial fol
| lowed, and II hours after the crime
the negro was on the way to the pris-
on to serve life sentence, that being
| in that state.
| If the Delaware courts had been as
| swift to insure the carrying out of the
| law" says Mr.. Powers, there would
not have been any rioting at Whining
| ton recently; and in fact the major
| ity of cases of lynching in the north
| have grown out of failure of the
courts to administer justice promptly.
In Delaware, for instance, the courts
said that to call a special grand jury
to consider the Wilmington outrage
would break long established prece-
dent, while they were explaining why
the special call could not issue. the
lynching and burning took place, the
populace evidently being of the opin-
ion that justice was to be slow. and
was possibly to miscarry on that
| account.
The trouble with lynchings in the
north is not so much with the law. or
with the people as with the courts.
The breaking occasionally of a prece-
dent would work wonders in the way
of convincing people that there is a
legal way to secure prompt punish
ment of offenders of this character.
Where justice is slow and hesitating.
the people are the more likely to take
| the law into their hands | do not now
recall a lynching in the north, where
there was a prospect Of speedy trial.
The laws delay is perhaps a good thing
in some cases, but there is one Of
Tense to which the American people
