Hoods SarsapariII;
Good and Bad Banking.

We see that the hope is quite general
in New York that there will be a return
"to the true business of banking" That
is to say, the distracted New Workers
hope that money deposited in the banks
will be used to further the ends of legiti-
mate mercantile and manufacturing en-.
terprises; that merchant, manufacturer
and farmer will secure the loans they
need and have their bills properly dis
counted; that more attention will be paid
to the general run of business men than
to the called Napoleons Of high finance.
1t was with view to meet the needs
of the business world that banks, the
storehouses of individual and corporate
savings, were established.
But" asks the New York Evening
Post, what have we seen in New York
during the past half dozen years? Great
banking institutions prostituted into tools
of INSCRIPTIONS spectators. Old names
have counted for little. Whose bank is
that?' oh, the Standard crowd have
got that. That's one Of Morse's string
Ryan is behind it, Such have been the
common remarks for years past; and the
inference is clear. People have bought
into banks for the sake Of control, that
control meaning use of banking resources
primarily to finance speculation, and
only secondarily to provide regular bus
mess with it's regular advances of CAPT
tall
1t is the comparative freedom from
such perversion of the legitimate func.
tions of banks that has helped Boston
through the succession of panics the
financial world has endured this year.
Another striking point made by oul
New York contemporary has to do with
the remedy for this speculative reckless
ness. President Roosevelt" says the
Post, sis accustomed to say that his plar
for supervising railroads is the same a,
that already in force for supervising ma
tional banks. But what did that super
vision amount to in the present instance
A vigilant and conscientious
clearing house in New York has beer
proven worth more to the business o.
New York than all the treasury Officials
at Washington.
Perhaps the President took this int
consideration when, in his message O
congratulation to Secretary Cortelyou
he gave word of praise to "those con
sentative and substantial business mel
who, in this crisis, have acted with suci
wisdom and public spirit and who 'dit

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

by the Taft bureau that Vermont is for
Taft. 1t is early yet to say that Vermont

common honesty in business affairs and

The president gives a new turn to the
phraseology of the annual Thanksgiving
proclamation and finds novel grounds on
which some of us, possibly the most of
us, may base our thanksgiving. He
points out the danger to moral RESPONSE
bility and the discreet performance of
duty that lies in prosperity, and suggests
that sit behooves us to beseech the Giver
of all things that we may not fall into
love of ease and luxury" Though most
of us will not be able to show that we
have had overmuch opportunity to dem
onstrate a sturdy resistance to such
temptation, we may therein find some
thing to be thankful for. Thanksgiving
proclamations have often been reckless
in respect to their unreserved exaltation
of substantial blessings aid abundance,
and their tone has suggested the finding
out and making the most of such at this
season. In times like the present-at
least until very recently-there is so
much of a material kind to be thankful
for that no proclamation is really neces-
sary to point it out. The duty of 80 do
ing, as it annually rests on the executives
of the nation and of the states, has long
been rather prosaic. Happily the presi-
dent has reminded us that the matter of
the ordinary call to Thanksgiving is not
the whole thing, but, on the contrary,
signifies something else that is worth
prayerful consideration. - Providence

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
Various Matters from Various
Ste d q nts.

The charge is made that the Hughes
newspapers are manufacturing public
sentiment" This comes in connection
with the ''straw vote" and general mis-
representation of the Taft bureaus and is
rather a serious charge to make against
the papers that are honestly for Hughes
because they think he is the right man
and are doing what they consider honest
and honorable work to advance his can
didacy. There has been no attempt to
manufacture anything. The papers re-
ferred to have frankly and openly advo-
Dated their man, told why they believe
him superior, and printed, whatever of
interest that has happened in connection
Herewith. The sentiment did not have
to be manufactured in this State. 1t
grew, first from the remarkable impress
sion of the man in his one speech before
Vermonters, second. from firm belief
in his public courage and integrity. The
sentiment was not created: it has simply
been put into shape. Montpelier Journ-

rate is 26S cents a mile, first class,

For second class the rate mile is LIZ

OATHS ELIMINATED
IN EXPENSE ACCOUNTS OF
FEDERAL OFFICERS

Federal officers of Hawaii, and pre-
sumably the mainland, no longer
swear to their expense accounts by
the So help me" route.
An order was received by the re-
cent mails announcing that hence
forth when expense accounts are
sent in for confirmation and payment
by the department, the officer filing
the account shall attest to the COR
rectness of the account ION my hon.
or"
Just why this change has been
brought about is not known by the
local officials. Some claim that the
men in Washington have discovered
by experience that the ordinary SOL
emn oath has been taken so frequent
ly that it has become part of the
routine and doesn't amount to all
that it should. On the other hand,
the value of personal honor has rela-
lively advanced, and when a man
puts his signature to anything on his
honor as a gentleman he stops to
think that he should always be gen.
tleman, and that includes honesty.
On the other hand, It may be that
the Department has decided that a
formal and solemn oath should not
be required Of man who may swear
to having spent fifteen cents in the
service of the Government. Sooner
or later this system tends to cheaper
the value of an oath.
At all events, it is interesting that
those in the employ of the American
Government are now working not so
much under oath as they are on their
honor as gentlemen.
