Our entire court system Is designed to
protect the rights of ihdividuale, to pro-
tect Tic single man from the force Of
superior numbers. to protect the weak
from the strong. II there were no laws
there would be no means Of preventing
the strong man from preying ttpon his
weaker brother, or a company Of men
from preying upon idividuals. Brute force
and not equity and justice would pre-
vail. In such system rich men could
fortify themselves In their castles ana
hire warriors to come and protect them.
The poor men would be the sufferers,
and hence 1t Is Of Vital Importance to
the poor, to those who have not the
means Of building and maintaining strong
castles, to uphold the law which Il main
tained makes them secure In all their
rights Of person and property. The poor
man who encourages mob violence, who
tries to break down tho bulwarks Of the
law, Is a great fool, for In 80 doing no
is giving aid and encouragement to his
most dangerous foes and weakening the
foundation OF his only castle OF protec-
ton. Tho moment mob rule takes It's
place instead OF the due administration
OF the law" said Judge Russell, ''you
have created something that Is subversive
OF every principle OF good government;
Oh have put a fagot under every mans
home and the track OF the assassin nt
every mans door, All men who put a
proper value upon security must keep
these precepts always In mind

funny way suggested that Judge Parker
take his stand in New York city and call

como up and see him. It also suggested
that the Denocratic. campaign fund
might be employed advantageously In
running popular excursions TO New York,
to enable all to meet the nominee. .5a..a Z

BANK DEPOSITS AND PANICS.

Attention is being directed in England just now
to the fact that despite the ongcontinued inactivity
in stocktrading there and very general depression
in trade, the deposits of the leading "jontstock'
banks in London and other populous cities do not
show the increase in volume that is customary under
such conditions In fact, the reports Of the London
banks published on June 80 showed falling off in
deposits amounting to about four million pounds
sterling. With money not seeking investment as
usual and with smaller volume of it actively en-
ployed in industry and trade, the question natur-
ally arises, What has become of this surplus cash?
The situation has given rise in some quarters to
apprehensions that idle money in England is going
into hiding" and to predictions that commercial
crisis is impending the essened bank deposits being
taken as an unfailing sign that capital has become
timid and that period Of financial depression is
about due. Such fears and predictions are alike un-
warranted. 1t is true that the history Of financial
crises and commercial depressions show that there
is generally slight decrease in bank deposits pre-
cedTng crises of this sort, followed by much more
pronounced decrease Immediately after the crisis has
commenced; but the opinion is now quite generally
held by financiers that an exaggerated Importance
has in the past been ascribed to diminished de-
posts, as indicating trouble ahead.
An article in the Quarterly Journal of Economies
by the late A. c. Stevens the panic of 1893 here in
the United States notes several such incidents that
befel without any warning whatever in the way of
decreased bank deposits but the author set them
down as exceptional. NJ. Clement Juglar, on the
ether hand has insisted that there is little or no con-
nectiOn between decreased amount of bank deposits
and panics, and has distinctly combatted the notion
that any such significance should attach to the for
mer And in NJ. Blocks "Dictonaire General de la
Politique" it is pointed out that on more than one
occasion the minimum of deposits was not reached
until after crisis had closed entirely, and the article
adds this

ty have asserted that crises were most frequently

POSTOFFICE FINANCES.

| Taken as a whole the preliminary estimate of re-
ceipts and expenditures of the postofice depart
ment for the fiscal year ended with June 30 is ex
ceedingy encouraging 1t shows a deficit of approx
mately $S00O0O0 although $12,000,O0O was spent
III extending rural mail delivery routes during the
year. This feature Of the postal service is one that
requires time for its development in order to make
it pay
1t is to be noted that the postoce department has
not been sef-sustaning in any year since 1884. In
1882, in 1883 and in 1884 it yielded nominal ex-
cess of receipts above expenditures but since then
the deficit each year has ranged from about $300O-
600 to 11,500,000, during "A large part of which
period the rural delivery system was not in opera
tion. In the mean time the number Of postoffices
has increased from 5O0l7 in 1884 to a. 1863 in 1903
and the receipts in these offices have increased from
$43, 100000. Expenditures, in the same period,
have increased from $46,400,00O to $138 100000
1t is manifestly impossible to calculate with pre-
else accuracy just what the revenues and disburse-
ments Of the postal service will be in given year
Much depends upon the conditions Of business, par
ticularly in the matter of issuing postal money or
ders and it is only surprising that the postoce au-
thOrtes at Washington are able to make income and
outgO balance so closely as they do.
No postal service in the world is more efficient than
that of the United States, as whole-there is in
efficiency in spots-and when the cheapness of it is
considered there will be little grumbng at the little
additional taxation that is required in order for
the postofice department to make ends meet.
