made them the standard skin cures
and humour remedies of the civilized
world.
The grandest testimonial that can
be offered the Cuticura remedies is
their worldwide sale, due to the per-

have used them. From a small begin
ming in the simplest form, against
prejudice and opposition, against
monied hosts, countless rivals, and

have become the greatest curatives of
their time, and, in fact, of all time,
for nowhere in the history of medicine
is to be found another approaching

HE ruin of a bank is practically always the result of fraud
or the use of its funds in undue and unlawful amount
BY ITS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS. This
money is sometimes lost in legitimate enterprises, through
bad judgment and mismanagement, but far the most fire.
quent cause for actual stealing or defacations in banks is speculation.
IT is SPECULATION, WHICH IS THE CURSE OF THE
DAY, which tempts so many men beyond their endurance. In the
last few years, eight or ten at the most, it has become much more
common. Where it was formerly confined to a few large cities it now
extends to almost every little country town, tempting and corrupting
all whom it touches and bringing with it ruin and sorrow and disgrace.
There is probably not a man who does not know personally some
good man who has become involved by it, some man who had had the
highest reputation, perhaps justly earned by an honorable and blame
less life and a business career of answering rectitude, who has been
tempted into the useo of other peoples money TO SAVE HIMSELF.
No one knows until he tries it how great that temptation is or can be
sure he can resist it. The only safe way is to avoid it. No man who
assumes the responsibility of the custody of funds belonging to others
should take the risk of subjccting himself to this temptation or
allow others with whom he divides such a trust to do C. We have
entirely too much Of the bankers using their banks for their PRI-
VATE gain.
bank directors, those duties which arr so plain IN THEORY and
are so often badly neglected in practice. In many eases of failure the
directors arc as much surprised as any one, simply because they have
not exercised their rights and performed their duties AS THEY
HAVE SWORN TO DO. In such cases they are more to blame
than any one. If all boards of bank directors would do their FULL
duty, bank failures would almost come to an end. We would very
seldom have such sudden and sensational failures Of banks, looted
from the inside by men who have stood high in their communities
and thought to be models Of honesty and trustworthincss.
The point | wish to emphasize is that the responsibility for bank
management is by law placed UPON THE BOARD OF DIRECT
ORo. By accepting a place on a bank board and taking the oath
OF office a man accepts this responsibility and swears he will diligently
and honestly administer the affairs Of the association.
he 's UNDER EVERY MORAL AND LEGAL OBLIGATION TO
PERFORM THIS DUTY FULLY AND COMPLETELY. IT Is GER.
TAlNlr NOT ASKING TOO MUCH OF MEN WHO ACCEPT SUCH
TRUSTS THAT THEY SIMPLY DO THEIR PLAIN SWORN DUTY
AND OBEY THE LAWS.

LIBRARY requires the recipient to read and study. He
becomes more sensible and rises in the social scale.
Ihave little faith in bcnefting people WHO DO NOT
BENEFIT THEMSELVES. You cannot boost a man ND
the ladder unless he does some Of the climbing himself. If people
read they will soon learn how to better the conditions under which
they live. In other words, the only way to improve the submerged
tenth is to improve their tastes and habits.
1t is a question of the submerged tenth versus the swimming
tenth, and moro can be done by helping those who help themselves.
l have given a tremendous amount Of thought to this great ques-
ton and have come to the conclusion that the least rewarded of all
professions is that of the teacher in our American higher educational
institutions. New York city generously and very wisely provides re-
firing pensions for teachers in her public schools. Very few of our
colleges are ABLE to do SC. The consequences are srievous.

MAY RELEASE KOCH
Hodges Believes Judge Will
Take Case From Jury

w. r. Hodges, publisher of news
paper at New Ulm, who has spent the
week following closely the develop
ments Of the Koch murder trial, was
in st. Paul last night. Mr.. Hodges
declared it his belief that the court
will take the case from the jury at the
close of the states case, and direct
verdict for the defendant.
''The state has signally failed in
proving points outlined in Gen. Childs'
opening statement of the case" Mr.
Hodges said, "and many people believe
that there can be but one result of the
trial-that the accused dentist will be
cleared. The state has failed to prove
it's theory of the hammer and the
bloodstains on the creamery door and
it will not put my editor, Asa Brooks,
on the stand.
There are rumors at New Ulm of
money being spent to secure evidence
for those Interested in seeing a verdict
of conviction. So far, the state has
disappointed everybody in the charac-
ter Of the evidence it has produced in
court" a-z4s
Mr.. Hodges resides at Sleepy Eye,
in the same county as New Ulm, and
is thoroughly familiar with all the de-
velopments of the sensational murder
of DR.. Gebhard.

UNIONS PLAN BILLS
State Federation Council Dis
cusses Proposed Legislation

The executive council of the State
Federation of Labor met yesterday in
st. Paul and considered at some length
a number of bills that will be pre-
sented to the legislature.
A measure repeating the law limiting
the liability of employers when per-
sonal injuries are sustained is favored.
This measure will be particularly urged
by the railroad organization, although
1t applies to all classes of business.
. The proposed act making it neces-
sary for all counties to install free
text books in the public schools has
been prepared, and is ready for intro
duction. 1t is the purpose to introduce
this bill early in the session, bitter
contest being expected. Labor leaders
claim that a majority of the members
of the legislature are committed in
favor of the BILL
Other legislation follows the general
lines laid down at the summer session
of the State Federation of Labor The
plumbers will attempt to secure the
passage of another licensing law,
avoiding the points that caused the
supreme court to declare the former
law invalid.

COUNCIL IN THE DARK
Members Waiting for Trolley
Company's Next Move

Consideration Of the proposed COM
promise between the ST. Paul City
Railway company and the city will be
resumed Friday Of this week.
An answer is expected at this time
from the company to the proposition
submitted by the city council and the
corporation attorney, in which the city
holds that the company must. agree to
the payment of the gross earnings tax
and make numerous other improve
ments and concessions.
= Members of the council and Corpora
tien Attorney Michael say that they
have heard nothing from the company
since the last meeting in the council
chamber, and that they are therefore
completely in the dark as to the offer
that is to be made by the company.
During the past week there has been
renewal of the talk that the company
will attempt to forestan the action of
the council ordering an appeal from
the decision of Judge Lochren in favor
of the company by having a law pass
ed making it impossible for a city to
tax public service corporations by both
the regular method and by collecting a
per cent of the gross income.
Strong efforts are being made by
agents of the company, for some rea-
son, to have the city council delay ac-
mittee Of eleven, sixefrom the board Of
aldermen and five from the assembly,
is too large with which to deal. An
effort may be made along this line to
have the consideration of the COM
pany's prospective propositions re-
ferred to subcommittee. The nine
members of the council who are not on
the committee show a disposition to
familiarize themselves with the propo-
sails. that they may act independent of
recommendations If they desire SO to
do when the report is submitted
The contest with the company cen-
ters about the proposal that it shall
pay the S per cent gross earnings tax,
the city council of its own motion hav-
ing eliminated the power of the council
to regulate fares.
M. D. Mum, who has submitted the
proposals for the company during the
previous hearings, is expected to re-
turn from his trip to California in time
to be present at Fridays hearing. I'M
der the rule made by the city council
that all proposals and dealings shall
hereafter be in writing, 1t is hardly
possible that q final decision may be
reached at this session.
