A number of the national bankers
of Nebraska have organized for the
purpose of fighting the guaranteed
deposits law recently enacted in that
State. The national banks are eX-

afraid the law will give the State
banks an advantage over them, and
they want it killed.

IF the taxes levied under the op-
erations of the protective tariff were
collected from the people directly in
stead Of indirectly as they are col

benefit of the trusts and the large

Our Memorial Day.

Yesterday was our Memorial Day.
The day on which all over South
Carolina the graves of her heroes
were decorated with beautiful flow
ers. Although the cause for which
these heroes died went down in de-
feat. they did not die in vain. There
has never been cause in the history
of the world which has found such
abundant justification at the hands
of time as the cause for which these
heroes died% The theory Of govern
ment which they died to uphold has
been confirmed time AID again by
orr highest court. and the rights
of the several States are recognized
now as they never were before.
The bitterness engendered by the
war in which these heroes died have
passed away, and we are now one
peoDle. The days of passion and
prejudice are happily dead, but the
tender memories that cluster around
tho SN"rr-"raG!eG nation that fell
will linser as long as this people
shall endure. and the recurrence of
these Memorial Days will call forth
our deepest love and veneration for
the noble heroes who died that their
country might live.

NO REASON FOR DISCOUR-
AGEMENT IN THIS CASE,

A man has been advertising in one
of our contemporaries for something
anything, apparently-that will cure
his rheumatism. We say "his" rheu-
matism deliberately, for it is evident
that in the case OF rheumatism one
mans remedy is another mans folly.
This theory may also account for the
large number of rheumatism cures.
Different cures are effective, it may be,
in different stages or at divers ages OF
this household plague. No doubt the
person in question has tried many
remedies already, but without avail j;
and he would keep on trying until he
has met the right one.
Possibly the advertiser has heard of
the potato 10 be carried in the pocket.
This .is=an cid English cure. As the
potato dries up it absorbs the patients
trouble. This is all there is to it. But
the potato must be stolen. One picked
right out of the family barrel won't do
Remember that.
Possibly good might come of taking
one of the old cures when the moon
is full. This is another traditional of
fering. So is gold. Arabic doctors
prescribe gold leaf. John Winthrop
had an idea that potable gold was a
cure-all. it is said that even TODAY. in
the baelCwoods, descendant of the oil
viper wine, a "bitters" made by soak
ing the flesh OF the rsttlesnake, is used
to overcome rheumatism.
There are many, many cures for
rheumatism, and no one yexed with the
malady need be discouraged. One
would have to live as long a Noah
lived TO exhaust the repertorv.

GOVERNORS APPROVE DRAS.
TIC LAWS ON KIDNAPPING.

views representing the sentiment
prevailing in different parts of the
country regarding the crime of kidnap-
ing have appeared in many papers, and
they show that in the great majority
of cases the feeling is that this crime
against the home cannot be treated too
severely.
Most of the governors who have in
dlcated their views, as emphasized by
the Whitla case, say that kidnapers
should either suffer the death penalty
or should be imprisoned for life. Their
opinions are undoubtedly typical of
those predominant in the different com
munities which they officially repre-
sent. r.
In Massachusetts the penalty for
kidnapping is twenty-five years in State
prison, and in the opinion of Governor
Draper that is sufficient. A grown up
man or woman convicted of the crime
in that State would suffer virtually for
life. Certainly twenty five years in
prison is heavy punishment, and in a
well-established and generally law
abiding community like Massachusetts
probably such penalty is a very prac-
teal deterrent. Communities differ
more or less in spirit and sentiment.
and so long as this is so there will be
differences of law. What would check
crime in this State might have COM
paratively little effect in some other
States.
Naturally feeling runs highest at
present in Pennsylvania, where the
WhitIa family resides. This probably
accounts for the bill introduced in the
Pennsylvania Legislature recently pro-
viding for capital punishment for con
victed kidnaper. But even in com
munities less disturbed by the Whitla
case, or less interested in it, there must
be among the people in general a strong
sentiment against kidnapping and a
strong desire to see it dealt with in a
drastic manner. 1t is a cruel and cow
ardly crime and those who commit it
should expect scant mercy.
