ports it can readily be een that during
the two Cleveland terms the cost Of
government was materially reduced, but
the instant that the reins of power were
given back to the Republicans the ex-
pepaes at once mounted up to the old
standard and then increased. 1t costs
but little more to govern 100, 900. 900
people than it did to govern 80. 000, 900,
vet the statistics show that while the
population was growing from GO, 1000, 900

doubled. Only the richest nation on
this earth could stand the wonderful

each year and this will soon cease TO be
the richest nation if this extravaganza

FRIDAY. MARCH 10. 1909
NEED STRINGENT LAWS TO
CHECK TRAMP EVIL

Reports Just compiled Mt the general
offices of the Pennsylvania railroad
show that during the year 1905 G5i tres
passers were killed and 791 injured OH
the lines of the Pennsylvania system
east and west of Pittsburg, For 1907
reports show S22 trespassers killed.
Thus during the past two fears on the
Pennsylvania system alone l,479 persons
have lost their lives in this way.
These figures are pointed To as en-
phasizing the recommendation in the
recent annual reports of the state rail
road commissions of Pennsylvania and
Indiana that laws should be enacted
providing substantial punishment for
all persons who trespass upon the pri-
vate rights of way of any steam or
electric railway.
These cases of trespass are not only Il
source Of expense and danger to the
railroad and its patrons, but it is felt
that common humanity should prompt
the most thorough measures to eiimi-
nate this evil rs rapidly as possible.
If these men frequent the company's
tracks and yards they are certain to be
killed or injured no matter how careful
the trainmen may be. Yet trcspassers
have no business whatever upon the
right of way of II railroad.
The extent of the trespassing abuse
is to he found not only in the figures
showing the number of persons killed
or injured while trcaspassing, but also
in the fact that during the year 1908,
according to the figures just compiled,
1859 persons were arrested for tres
passing, 4l2 for vagrancy and 1857
for illegal train riding on the lines of
the Pennsylvania system. During the
year 1907 the arrests for these causes
numbered 1888.
The management of the Pennsylva.
MIA hopes that the bringing to public
attention of the above unfortunate con
ditions may serve TO enlist still further
support for the railroad commissions
and the railroad companies. which are
seeking to bring this evil to an end,
In England, where there is a much
greater amount of unemployment than
in this country and where the density
of population is much greater, railroad
t~respassing is almost noncxistcnt. ani

laws which are enforced tn prevent it.

The Banking Commission

The committee to Investigate the state
banking commission for its manage
ment Of the affairs of the State Bank i
Trust Company has made its report to
the legislature. The report says that
owing to the limited time ut the dis
posal of the committee it WAS impos-
sible to make 4 thorough investigation.
The committee found that Bank Elk
aminer Miller reported on the 10Th of
November, 1907, that the liabilities of
the State Bank Trust Company ex
cecded its assets by S2S73.25, but on ex
animation before the commission in
formed them he was compelled to guess
at some of the figures. The report
proving unsatisfactory to the commits.
sion he was directed to further investi'
gate the company's affairs and to report
on March ), 1908. That report shows
the bank to be solvent and, excluding
the liability due the stockholders, the
bank to be able to pay off all liabilities
and then have Il surplus of $524,5I5.lC
to be applied to the liability due the
Stockholders. The committee report
that if Mr.. Miller's first report was cor
rect the bank commission failed to obey
the law in not having Il receiver ap
pointed. and that if his second report
was correct the commission did obey
the law. &
In regard TO the trading of accounts
the committee found that the banking
commission permitted the officers of the
bank to trade accounts and that neither
the bank nor the dcpositorS suffered any
loss 10y such trading. The assets were
reduced by such trading as were also
the liabilities.
In regard TO the state having money
on deposit in the State Bank &c Trust
Company. the committee report that
W. q. Douglas. secretary of state, il
making his quarterly settlement with
the state treasurer, October /, 1907, gave
him u check for the sun of 81 900; that
after receiving the check. ID. VI. Ryan,
state treasurer, presented ii for pay
llplt 10 tlH StdLc ballh q 1TuSt SOul
pany and WAS informed ut that time
that they had not sufficient money to
take up the check. hut expected Il large
sum of money from Denver, and would
then pay the check. Mr.. Ryan immcdi
atcly Informed Mr.. Douglas that hC
would hold him personally responsible,
for the check. The bank and Mr.
Douglas thereafter paid the check. NJ
money WAS taken ont of the state treas
ury but whatever money that WAS il
the bank was money due tn" state from
w. q. Douglas. and about S2I, 900 OF
such money was in the bank ut the time
If its closing.
In regard to the particular causes OF
the failure. the committee found ample
grounds for believing that it WAS partio
ularly due To several large loans, over
drafts ANA other transactions of AN il
legal and fraudulent nature.
