National BANKS.

1t appears from this that whereas in
1890 the national banks did nearly
twice as much business as the trust
companies and State banks put to-
gcther, in 1907 the business of the
national banks, although having great
ly increased in the meantime, was
nearly fourth less than the aggre-
gate of the other two classes of banks.
Mr.. Fowler seems to think that unless
something is done to protect them. the
national banks are in danger OF ex-
tinction. and he suggests that they be
given the right of exercising powers
of executors, administrators, guardians
and trustees. But why try doubtful
experiments, when Mr.. Bryan has Of
fered remedy that is absolutely sure?
Let the Federal government guarantee
the DEPOSITS III national banks. and all
7 the State banks would have to nation.

VIRGINIA SCHOOLS IN 1871.

on the Educational Page to-day will
be found an instructive article on the
schools Of Nire,.nia in 1924. AT that
date there wertAnly three colleges in
English North America. one OF which,
William and Mary, was in Virginia.
But although we had a college, which
has survived to this day, we had no
system of public schools. and only a
few parochial schools. here and there,
for the instruction of children. We
have not done as we'll as we should
have done, but when we compare our
public and private schools, our uni-
versity and our colleges with the edu-
cational facilities OF 1874, we have
cause for gratitude and qualification.
And the Improvement Is due In great
part TO two men--Thomus jefferson
and William II. Ruffner

poetry OF tho mmissioner--which is
also Of tile same high class as above.
The ode is not in the form of verse,
but 1t measures full four feet to the
line, and there is poetry in every foot.
"Tle Kansas hog. in his sphere of

beautiful" concludes the poem, us a

port, everywhere demanded and always
sufficient for entree to Presidents, po-
tcntates or peasants, is-'Kansas' on

That panegyric fairly bristles with
sentiment, and we should say no more
but for an insolent comment by the
New York Sun.

SAYS that rrevercnt contemporary,
what song WAS ever poured over them
like Old .slfalfa's praise of the pork
products of Kansas? His ode Is enough
to make one forswear other bacon
forever. Happy the State which has
such happy hogs, whose life is ccstatlc
and whose death II boon set TO music
by Coburn."
Now, Kansas may praise her hogs
as much as she pleases, and classify
them according to tho fancy of her
official poet. but when 1t comes to drag
ging Virginia hams into such associa-
ton, that is another kind of bacon
The Virginia ham stands alone. 1t Is
without rival and Incompatible. We
therefore demand that Commissioners
Koiner write, or cause to be written,
poem on the Virginia ham that will
make the Kansas poem look like n
razorback shoat.

PEARLS BEFORE SWINE.

Hon. Alfalfa Coburn, of Kansas, is
By profession Commissioner of Agri-
culture for that State. but when he
lings of swine he is a poet. In a re-
cent ode he declares that in Kansas
the hog finds his favored zone, for
Kansas is q corn orchard packed with
grasses and fragrant with the bloom
of alfalfa, the greatest forage plant
vouchsafed by Providence to men
growing there In profusion else
where unknown. He declares further
that the hog finds in Kansas eondi-
tlons of soil and climate and a people
that are entirely congcuial to his la-
ture and conducive TO his development.
In fact he attributes the prosperity
OF the Kansas hog to mis- congenial
environment and society-especially
x pocicty--ana lays down the hognatic
principle that liigh-class swine are I'M.
