CONCERNING CHICAGO BANKS

In the past five years the deposits of
the national banks of Chicago have in
creased 65 per cent, and the Capital but
30 per cent.
Banking capital is not growing, as a
rule, in the same ratio as deposits.
This means that the banks are becom-
ing larger, in an individual sense, and
their expansion comes from merger
with other institutions in great many
cases.
Since January the following banks
have been organized: Drovers' Trust
and Savings, Live Stock savings, Chi
cago savings, Federal Loan and Trust
company, Colonial Trust and Savings,
and only the other day charter was
granted to the Northwestern Loan and
Trust company.
In the past seven years 13 national
banks have gone out of business, and
only one has been organized, the num-
ber having been reduced from rs to
~. In the same period the state banks
have been less disturbed. Eight have
retired, and with the new ones formed
and in process of formation seven have
been started.

The jury returned a verdict of guilty

pleasantly surprised for we anticipated
a disagreement or acquittal, not because
the evidence failed to sustain the in
d1ctment, but because of the emirence,
the age, of the accused, and, more than
all, the leniency with which land-grab-

GOOD COMMON SENSE.

4 In letter accepting the resignation
OF a derelict police commissioner of
Michigan City the governor of Indiana
reads lesson on law enforcement that
should serve as an excellent guide for
public officials everywhere and find
lodgment in the heart of all who mean
to be good citizens. In this letter he
says:
"Under the present administration
there are no 'priveleges.' Disregard of
official obligation will insure removal in
every instance as soon as learn of such
disregard and as quickly as electricity
can carry the order.
II also beg to suggest thai no execu-
tive officer has right to do any think
ing as to the propriety or wisdom of
existing laws. The general assembly of
the state has already done that for him.
1t is enough for him to know the law
and that his obligation requires him to
enforce it.
II 'cannot agree with you that the
citizens of Michigan City should be
allowed to say how police matters should
be conducted or that a member of the
police board has right to give the
people of Michigan City what they want
unless the people of Michigan City want
the law enforced impartially against all
men and choose to say that it shall be so
enforced.
II have only asked, and do now only
ask, and shall continue only to ask. that
the laws Of tie state be impartlally and
faithfully executed in Michigan City.
The man who is not willing to subscribe
to that sentiment is not as good cit1-
zen as he ought to be. Freedom from
restraint is not true liberty, but license,
and license, at the very best, is but the
liberty of the jungle, the liberty of the
anarchist, the liberty of the assassin.
I'm answer to the suggestion that you
are tired you will allow me to say am
convinced that you are 'tired'-too
tired in fact, to do your duty in the
Office you held, and for that reason I
accept your resignation"

Of the Chinese exclusion laws to the japanese
is strong and a number of the courts WI st of
the Rockies, notably those in Washington state,
have rejected all applications for citizenship on
the part of the Japanese on the ground that the
naturalization laws of the United States have
never allowed other than free white persons
and persons of African nativity or descent to
be naturaized.
While, of course, there was no truth In the
story cabled to this country that Japan had
made demand for an indemnity of S1OOOOOOOO
from France for her violations of the laws OF
neutrality in permitting the i'll fated armada of
Rojestvensky to both her ports and her
water in its progress from Cronstadt to the Pa
cifc since these violations contributed to the de-
livering of the Russian fleet into Togo's hands,
vet the people of Dai Nippon will neither forget
nor forgive the assistance rendered by the
French to their foe. No effort is likely to be
made by the Mkado's government to obtain re-
dress at any rs tie for the present. But no one
need feel surprised to hear that troubles of the
most serious character have broken out in the
near future in the border provinces of Frances
possessions in Indo-China, where the natives

that the would have the effect of exhausting
both belligerents for a long time to come, deprv-
ing them of the power of pursuing that aggres-
sive policy to which the we'll as the other

crushed. But JAPAN far from being exhausted,
emerges from the struggle stronger and more
aggressive than ever and small wonder that
those directing the destinies of this nation look
worried and that the newspapers with ac-
cord preach moderation to Japan. Whether the
latter will be disposed in this hour of her tri-
umph to defer to these editorial recommenda-
tions, is open question. For, against the
proclamation of Count Okuma, the veteran Jap
anese statesman and most authoritative and

his government would insist on the possession
of Corea of the Liao-Tung Peninsula, of Sagha-
lien and of the control of Manchuria and
