This is sarcasm from the Philadelphia
Inquirer: Senator Tillmsn has his pitch
fork out after the New York banks. He
thinks they are loaning money tor use in
speculation. This is an outrageous libel.
The idea that the banks loan money to
men engaged in speculation in stocks is
enough to shock anyone. Of course, it
isn't so. We don't deny that there is a
tremendous amount of speculation going
on in New York and that in active times
about fifty million dollars day are used
in tossing stocks back and forth, but the
money is dug up out of old stockings and
vest pockets for the purpose. No self
respecting bank would lend itself to any
such thing as speculation. We are sur
prised at the guileless innocence and the
rank suspicion harbored in the Tillman
breast. The bankers themselves say that
they are only aiding business and that
ought to settle it. A rose by any other
name smells good deal sweeter during
a Congressional investigation.

Missionary POlicyhOlders.

The following from the Pittsburg Post
on the subject of life insurance strikes us
as sensible and quite to the point: AL
though there are comparatively few men
who have taken out life insurance on any
of the commonly established plans who
are not enthusiastic believers in this form
of Investment, savings, and safeguarding
combined, yet the ratio of insured to un-
insured is surprisingly small, and the
cost of getting new business even with
economies recently effected IN all of the
larger companies is yet very high. Most
life insurance companies are now on a
mutual basis.
This suggests that the satisfied among
the insured, and these are legion, are not
doing their whole duty by their fellow
men who are not insured, or they would
more fruitfully tell them how good in
surance is. They are not doing their
duty by themselves, or they would work
to reduce the ratio of expense by such
missionary endeayor. All life insurance
nowadays is devised so that man doesn't
have to die to win. With liberal loan
and surrender values, with ample facili-
ties to get ones policy extended or COM
muted, even fhe isn't able 10 keep up
payments, there is no all-around means
of putting the savings of the average
small wage-earner where they will be
better available for wide variety of con-
tingencies better than good life insurance.
A man with goodly sum invested in
we'll chosen life insurance is better of,
and his family also, than il he had it tied
up in property. For while it doesn't al
ways bring in an income, it affords pro-
lection against want if death strikes the
mainstay ofthe family. 1t affords colat-
eral that is good for loan on fair terms
in the tightest of times, and it cannot de-
preciate or be destroyed.

F0RTiFlCATi0NS BILL
As Reported From the Committee Car
ries Only S5,210,e11.

Washington, March 1.-THE forti-
ications bill, carrying a total appro-
priation of $S,21OG11 instead of the
S3S,443,945 asked for by the war de-
partment, was reported n the house
committee on appropriations by Chair
man Smith of the subcommittee on
Notifications The subcommittee felt.
aside from other considerations that
to recommend an appropriation of
S3S,OC0,OOO for Notifications at this
time would be an action which might
be very seriously construed by Japan
as an official declaration that the
United States was preparing against
war with that nation.
The amount recommended by the
committee is larger than any which
has been annually appropriated since
the Spanish-American war. The cut
ting down of the departments esti-
mates by $3O,233,334 means, among
other things, that the committee has
recommended practically nothing for
continental United States and has ap-
propriated mainly for the Hawaiian
and Philippine islands.
The committee has turned down en-
tirely the departments proposal for
the Notifications of Manila harbor by
the construction and fortification of
an artificial island and nothing is car
ried for Subig bay.
The only points in continental Unit
ed States appropriated for in the bill
as revised by the committee are De-
ception Pass in Puget sound; at
Charleston, S. c.; Pensacola, Fla:
Mobile, Ala, and various points where
expenditures are required for the in
stallation of range findings apparatus.
For the Hawaiian islands practically
everything is allowed that was recon-
mended by the Taft board excepting
the fortification of Pearl harbor
Provision is made for the fortifica-
tion of Carabai island in Manila bay.

Neglected Colds Threatened Life.


FROM tue chicago tribune,
"'Don't trifle with cold is good ad-
vice for prudent men and women. 1t
may be vital in the case of child. Prop.
er food, good ventilation, and dry, warm
clotoing are the proper safeguards against
colds. If they are maintained through
the changeable weather of autumn, win
ter and spring, the chances of surprise
from ordinary colds will be slight. But
the ordinary light cold will become Sc
we're if neglected, and a well established
ripe cold is to the germs of diphtheria
what honey is to the bee. The greatest
menace to child life at this season of the
year is the neglected cold" Whether il
is a child or adult, the cold slight or Sc
vere the very best treatment that can be
adopted is to give mberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t is safe and sure. The great
popularity and immense sale of this
preparation has been attained by its re-
markable cures of this ailment. A cold

THE meanest paymaster in the world
is Uncle Sam. The architect who design
ed the National Library has just died
without getting his pay. There are mil.
lions in the Treasury received on account
of the French Spoliation and the Ala
bama claims TO which the government
has no just title. but which it refuses to
pay out. Contractors hate to work for
Uncle sam, because he is always finding
fault and cutting down payments. Be-
cause there are few grafters after the
national purse is no reason why the Ma
tion should be persistently and continu-
ously unjust.

The Pure Oil Company gives the credit
for increased dividends and brighter
prospects to President Roosevelts course
against predatory wealth. In letter to
the stockholders the company says, in
part: 1--WE wish to impress on all of our
stockholders and all others wishing to
engage in legitimate business enterprises
the importance of upholding, in every
honorable way, the present policies ofour
chief executive as regards federal control
of transportation" There is no question
but that President Roosevelt has opened

THE jury in the first capitol conspiracy
cases at Harrisburg has returned ver-
dict of guilty against the four defendants,
John H. Sanderson, contractor; William
P. Snyder, ex-auditor; w. l.. Mathues,
ex-state treasurer, and James NJ. Shu-
maker, superintendent. The trial has
been in progress since Jan. q, and the
verdict was rendered on Friday last after
the jury had deliberated several hours.
Immediately upon the announcement of
the verdict counsel for each defendant
made motions for new trials. The maxi
mum penalty in each case is two years
Imprisonment and $1,000 fine. Other
trials will follow these and there will be
no excusing of any who are guilty. As
the Franklin News puts 1t, the Repub-
lican party suffered because of the short
comings of some of its prominent men,
but it has now kept its pledges and is en-
titled to full credit as party for its uni
form Integrity in managing the affairs
of the Commonwealth. No organization
can wholly escape the troubles incident
to dishonest employees, but an organ
ization that does its best to give good
government and which Furnishes those
who do wrong is entitled to the confidence
of the people. 1t was freely predicted by
the opposition organs that the men guilty
of graft would be allowed to escape. This
has been disproved. The Republic
party does not stand for any dishonest
course and those who do wrong find no
protection from the organization.
