excellent when confined to the locality
In which the bank comes in personal
contact with It's customers but when
the ownership is scattered farther it
approaches the great mutual insurance
company in the lack of interest and ac-
tual inability of the owners to pay any
attention to its business. Unless people
are located remote from any safe bank
they had better deposit their money as
near home as possible where they can
claim personal acquaintance either
with the banker or the local stockhold-
err who knows the banker. The govern
ment inspects the home bank just as
it does the city bank and so do the
directors. This is probably true of the
big banks doing business by mail but
one is too far away to find out from
some director or stakeholder what one
should know when trusting a bank with
ones money The local bank like the
local merchant, should resort to local
advertising to combat his mail order
competitor.

Outside Point of View

Gossip had linked her name with

hood She was a married woman, not
blessed with children. And the neigh
bors, some of them good friends. had
a. quiet little meeting and appointed
a. committee of three to call on her
and inform her of the fact that people
were talking, and to ask her, If she
valued the good opinion of others, to
remove the cause. And her reply was,
"Ill do as 1 please. I don't care what
neople think" The latter part of the
sentence is the text of what follows.
Now It so happens this woman did
NOT state a fact She did care, but
perhaps cared more for the young man.
Nome of us are so constituted that we
can avoid caring much for the good
oninion of others We fear Mrs. Grun-

promptly deny responsibility for the

travagance against the administration

WHERE TILE PAYS.
(Alden Times)

r. M. Geary, west of town, is COM
pleting a job of thing siXty-acre
corner of his farm that shows what
kind of faith he has in the subject of
drainage. To take care of the water
on this one stretch of land he is planting
four carloads of tile. Three carloads
are 1O-inch The total expense will
he in the near vicinity of $1,000, half
of which is for material and half for
labor. In some places the excavation
is a few inches more than seven feet
deep. During all the years Mr. Geary
has owned the farm, this has never
given fair crop, but he believes, with
the tile in it it will be we'll worth $50
an acre-a net earning on the deal OF
$4,000.
Mr.. Geary pins his faith to patch
twenty or thirty rods south of the
school house that he tiled three years
ago. Until tiled, it was worse than
worthless as 1t took up space and he
had to pay taxes on it. He had two
good fab. crops on it and then this
year came with Its sixty bushels OF
corn to the acre on the piece. Inc
crop raised on it this one year far ana
away more than pays the whole eX-
pense of thing This is where he got
his faith.

THE COLOR LINE IN CRIME.

Perhaps we of the north do not I'M
derstand the negro and the negro
question. 1t is certain that we can not
see it as the south does Sometimes we
rise in mobs, stirred by the same
fierce impulse that builds fires about
the southern rapist and dis
grace communities by outrageous
violations of all law. Human
nature is much the same above
and below Masons and Dixon's line,
but in the north the law reaches to
the punishment of crime against color.
The negro may not be as well liked as
in the south but the race is better pro-
tected under the law.
The sentence given the white rapist
OF negro girl at Boone proves this.
He is man well along in years and
the victim of his brutality little grl
of twelve. His sentence of twenty
years is not a day too long. 1t would
be too short were It not for the fact
that his age makes Of it practically a
life sentence. It is not unlikely, had
the perpetrator been a negro and the
sufferer a white girl that the citizens
of Boone might have strung him to a
lamp post or tree Perhaps the white
criminal deserved no better fate. The
point is that the white man got twenty
years in the north instead Of the case
having been squelched in justice
court and the offense against law con-
doned because it was against color.
The sentence is exhiliratingly just.
1t is notice that in Iowa the rapist
gets his deserts because of his crime.
There are no extenuating circum-
stances for man who commits shame
full crimes against childhood, white or
black. Send him where he will be in
nocuous and keep him there, white or
black. If any crime deserves the
death penalty that Of the Boone GRIM
inal is the one Childhood and woman
hood should be safe in Iowa, irrespec-
tive of color or condition.

BANK NG BY MAIL.

Reference has been made in the
scheme in which ex-Secretary Shaw is
said to be Interested 1t is reported that
the scattering of the banks stock
among a great number of individuals
and the solicitation of deposits by mail
are to be the two principal features of
the new enterprise.
The plan is merely an amplification
of what has been developing rapidly in
banking circles, especially in Philadel-
phia where Mr. Shaw expects to To-
cate For several years the drawing
power Of advertising has been used by
banks to attract business from all over
the country and Shaw is simply go
ing after this business with greater
energy than usual.
While this venture is entirely legit1-
mate and proper so long as honestly
conducted the venture does raise the
question of wisdom of people sending
their money away to distant banks.
Secretary Shaws bank Will probably
be strong and safe Institution. Many
Of the largest and safest banks i'm the
east are now advertising for deposits
but If Mr.. Shaw succeeds in scatter
ing his banks stock over a wide area
he will remove from the bank the

interested stockholders. The principle

to preserve reputation.
SO far, all this refers to the indivd-
ual. Let us look at the corporation,
the community, the town. the state.
even the general government. None
of these collective bodies, but do care
what the people think" In fact of
very recent date, we find such cor
poration as the Standard Oil concern
using newspaper columns and maya
zine articles to cause people to think
differently. Strange to relate, we find
the state of Dubuque" to say nothing
of Davenport. waking up to the fact
that their continued law-defying ac-
ton in regard to the mulct law. was
actually impairng real estate values,
and now an effort is being made not
only to reform but to let people know
they are reforming. Even the liquor
interests of this country are beginning
to care what people think. They have
begun and are carrying on cam
paign of education, by means OF
pamphlets and newspaper articles sent
broadcast over the country state
like Missouri would give much to
prevent people still thinking of the
continued operations within it's bord-
ers of the Younger and James broth
ers Louisiana does care what people
think of mob law and the burning of
negroes at the stake. And Uncle Sam,

million of us, actually swell up" with
pride, when we hear from outside ma
lions, comm endable words. When we
returned an exorbitant war claim to
China we enjoyed hearing not only
what the Chinese government thought
of it, but what the civilized world
thought.
To return to the text, and the first
Illustration. This woman that didn't
care what people thought, may have
been an innocent woman. May, have
been the victim Of scandal. Maybe she
knowing all this, felt that to have
given in to her meddlesome neighmors
would have been half admission of
the truth of their surmises. And so
she determined to fight it out. But
taking this view of it, she attempted
a hopeless task. The world isn't big
enough, life is too short, to have pub
lie opinion. Right or wrong, she would
have lived a much happier life if she
had yielded or made the pretense of
yielding. For society is so constituted
that it will tolerate multitude of sins
that are kept covered up. 1t is the
open gambling house, the open house
of ill-fame that rouses the indigna-
tien of the community. The affinity"
business becomes heinous sin, when
the public gets details.
