A.sociated Press Cable to The Evening
Times.
Paris, April. 19.-The statue of Ben
jamin Franklin. to be unveiled tomor-
row, is appropriately erected in close
proximity to the scenes of his activity
during the eventful eight years he
spent in France. 1t stands on the
Place du Trocadero. near the point
where the Rue Franklin. named in his
honor. leads towards the heights of
Passy. All about are reminders of
Franklin's sojourn in Pessey-here the
Franklin. and OH the busy thorough
fare of Passy the Anticipated Hotel
Franklin. 1t was on the Rue Franklin
that the villa stood, surrounded by
ample gardens. which became SO we'll
known as Franklin's home. The place
is marked today by grass tablet af
fixed to the wall of a tumble-down edi-
flee, lately used as a religious school.
but now closed under the law against
religious teaching. The tablet reads:

No vestige of the Franklin villa re-

double rows of linden trees. Here
Franklin matured the plans by which
France became the ally of the United
States, here he erected. according to
the traditions of Passy, the original

THE TRUSTEE e boot RINr.

The moral awakening which is pro-
foundly Affecting the convictions OF the
people Is rapidly bringing about two
important practical changes in bust
ness methods. The first. and as yet
the more notable. concerns the rela-
lions of officers of corporations In
whose bands the management Is
trusted to the real owners. namely,
the shareholders. While in ethics and
In law the immemorial duty OF trus-
tees has, of course, been to administer
the trust honestly and in good faith
on behalf of the real parties In inter
est, II is notorious that In the arnaz-
ingly rapid concentration and transfer
of industry and wealth under the In
corporated forms widespread and
gigantic abuses developed. In which the
fundamental duty OF management was
violated, long without legal penalty or
sny adequate recourse of any kind for
dsfrauded stockholders.
1t was the public perception OF the
dangerous spread Of these wrongs that
started and sustained the movement
for remedies against them, and the
authentic disclosures in the course of
official investigation and prosecution
have so powerfully affected public
sentiment as within a few years to
amount almost to q revolution. Delin-
euencies and conversions to vietimize
the stockholding mass, which not long
ago were wtnksd at by complaisant
public opinion or submitted to as ire
mediable are now regarded as odious
crimes and bringing to the perpetrators
daily greater peril of legal punishment,
while secrecy is more difficult because
of the demand OF stockholders for pub
licity. The gain for honesty and for
the rights of the stoclkholdinx mass
against the conspiring few In manage
ment is already immense.
But second result. of hardly less
importance, is already coming In sight
protection of the rights OF minority
stockholders against majority stock
holders. Numerous decisions. the lat
est and most significant of which is the
one Just handed down by Judge San
born of the federal circuit court OF APP
peals In Missouri, are extending the
doctrine OF trusteeship to the relation
of the stockholding majority TO the
minority no less than to that Of ofacers

SIX BUSY MONTHS AHEAD.

The prospect for extraordinary bus
mess activity and prosperity for the
next six months is assured, and all cal
culations are unreservedly made on
that basis. Every blast furnace is
producing iron to the extreme limit
of capacity. and a number of steel
mills and blast furnaces have already
announced their withdrawal from the
market as sellers of steel and iron
during the remaining months of the
current year. while most of the large
concerns are far behind in deliveries.
The government report Of the rec
ord crop in the history of agricultural
production, including practically the
whole circle of principal cereals of
worldwide demand, Is abundantly
corroborated by all the practical unof-
flcial proofs. 1t is a fact that the
western roads find themselves now
known, despite extensive additions
during the year to rolling stock. the
same having been limited only by the
capacity of the car shops. and even
now much freight usually shipped in
box cars Is reported as going on fiat
cars. Every possible strain is being
put on equipment resources to provide
for the prodigious crop tonnage which
the counter current of demand for coal
also is already pressing car service.
With these vast crop yields at pres
emit and prospective prices, which,
though highly remunerative to the
producer, are attractive to Europe,
there Is prospect of an approximate
export of 200,000,000 bushels of
wheat, over 175.OOO.000 bushels of
corn and fully 100000 bales of cot
ton. which three crops alone would
give the country a foreign credit of
seas 100000, while the total export
of farm commodities of this years
yield is expected to exceed a billion
dollars.
The export fraction affords a strik-
ing suggestion Of the enormous ag-
gregate purchasing power of our crops,
when the domestic demand is included,
which is now in farmers hands to be
exchanged for supplies and permanent
improvements or as a net surplus to
be invested In innumerable forms of
productive enterprise. 1t is such a
purchasing power that every line of
business and industry must beyond a
peradventure be stimulated to great

NEED or BETTER BANK INSPECTION.
The failure of a national bank In
Massachusetts,, following closely upon
the disastrous failure of a wrecked
state bank in Illinois. re-enforees fur
Their the demand for better bank In
spection.
AS has already been pointed out.
the looted Illinois bank proved to
have been in an insolvent condition
for several years, notwithstanding the
fact that It was repeatedly subjected
to the inquiry of the state bank ex-
aminers and its condition certified as
good. In this connection a prominent
Chicago banker was at the time quoted
as saying that the work of the Illinois
state bank examiners was Just as eff
ficient, or rather inefficient, as the
work of the national bank examiners,
and that the result would re been
no different had the Quilted bank been
Incorporated as a national bank.
The Massachusetts, bank failure
would seem to support this assertion
so far as the facts given out provide
fair basis for supporting a conclusion.
The Massachusetts, bank was exam
ined and passed by a national bank
examiner less than two months ago
and even now is closed not by inter
ference of a bank examiner. but as a
result of discoveries of too inquisi-
tive director.
1t may be that the examiners are
neither incompetent nor dishonest, but
rather that the system of bank exam
ination is ineffective and the authority
of the examiners too restricted. The
one fact stands out, however, that the
examination as at present conducted
does not uncover crookedness or reck-
less extensions of credit where there
is any effort to keep the damaging evil
dence away from the examiners. Ac-
cumulating cases like these promise to
make the question of better bank ex-
animation a very live one before our
various law-making bodies when they
next come to meet.

WAGES AND FOOD.

The report of the investigation
which the national bureau OF labor
has conducted as to wages of labor
in the principal manufacturing and
mechanical industries during 1905 in
comparison with the ten preceding
years negatives the notion quite gem
orally entertained that cost of liv-
ing, so far at least as food is con-
eerned, has increased more rapidly
than wages. The result of the inquiry
is to establish the fact that. while
food prices we're higher in 1905 than
in 1904, wages increased nearly three
times as fast.
Other facts further emphasize the
general share of labor in prosperity.
Not only were wages per hour in the
representative establishments 1.6 per
cent higher, but 6.3 per cent more
persons were employed, thus showing
a material increase in the opportunity
as we'll as in the recompense for work.
ers. At the same time that there was
thus a higher sheer money wage, the
purchasing power of the wage, too,
advanced, SO that a weeks wage In
1905 would purchase l per cent more
than in 1904.
The comparisons during a longer
period are immensely more favorable,
for the total amount of the pay rolls
during 1905 was SO per cent greater
than the average during the ten-year
period. and the average pay per hour
was nearly II per cent greater than
In 1894.
The investigation would be more
satisfactory If it had not been con-
tned to wages as related to foods and
had included also rent. clothing and
other important elements of cost OF
living to the average wage Garner. but
none of these. unless It be rent. is
commonly imagined to have increased
so rapidly as foods when measured by
wages.
The indication of the wage and food
cost comparison is strongly eorrobo-
rated by the contemporaneous records
OF building and loan associations. saw

And we shall know, as we sit and walt

When Someone Is calling the children in,
And the hands and lips We loved to press,

And the deed, the one, that was never lent,
And the kindly word, withheld for years,
Shall find their way from the heart In

Our burdens low and the feet that
strayed
So far from home. stone-bruised. thorn

OF the loss and gain. We shall come to
