THE FIRST TIME ON RECORD.
SeIated Reformation in the Case Of
Sam DooIittIe.

One OF the easiest-going, most shift
less individuals that ever drifted
through life, too lazy to travel any way
except with the current. was Sam Doo-
htiIe. Sam was born tired and never
outGrew ii. Being behindhand was a
chronic complaint with him, and It

pected anything else of him.
In the course of time Sam died. The

and the announcement sent out, when.

essary to change the time to an hour

THE STATE BANK COMMISSIONERS

The condition of the Eureka
County Bank shows that it's man
agement was rotten to the core.
While the men responsible for It's
condition deserve punishment, the
state bank commissioners stand
before the people in about the same
light.
The creation Of this board by the
legislature was for the purpose of
protecting the people of the state
from loss through the dishonest if
not criminal management of bank
ing institutions. By the sworn
evidence of Bank Examiner Van
Feet before Judge Breen, it appears
that the bank examiner reported
the Eureka County Bank insolvent
nearly a year ago. With this knowl-
edge in their possession for nearly
a year, the bank commissioners
permitted this bank to conduct bust
ness when they knew it was in
solvent. BY SO doing, they failed
most grievously in the performance
of their duty to the people. 1t will
not do for them to say that the
distress and loss would have been
greater had they acted upon the
report of the bank examiner made
in April 1909. They cannot prove
this to the satisfaction of the people.
Possibly the then depositors might
have lost more than they will now,
but to offset this many will lose who

EDITOR CARNEGIE

1t is said Andy Carnegie intends
to start newspaper. One paper
looks upon it as sign that ANDY
never will get out of trouble; an
other that it is a clear proof that
he intents to die poor. Our own
idea is that if he starts newspaper
it will be in the interest of his own
soul. He is very rich, naturally a
little vain, and he has been petted
and praised and pulled up so much
of late, that we suspect the thought
has taken hold of him that what he
is and what he has done is due al
together to the great heartedness
and 1great medicines of Andy
himself.

board had closed the bank when it's
insolvency was first made known.
There is only one safe course for
officials to follow and that is to obey
their official oaths and enforce the
law without fear or favor. Had
the state bank commissioners en-
forced the law and closed theEureka
County Bank as was their sworn
duty they would not now be CEN
S sired and conedmned by public
sentiment.

-wIIo, us rUTe, uoes not feel COM
petent to either run a newspaper
right, or to superintend a quartz
mine, and we suspect that Andy,
deep down, has an idea that with a
newspaper through which he can be
heard daily, he will establish that,
hal lie iiot chosen to be a steel
king, he would have been the great
est editor in the world.
And that is what, perhaps, is to
save his soul. He is perfectly
satisfied, no doubt, that he can write
anywhere from three to seven COL
umns day that will come upon
the world, very much as what hap
pened when ON that first morning of
creation God said, LET there be
light" And that is where we think
there is chance to save Andy's soul.
He will be very prolific and
profound the first three days. After
that he will begin to feel sort of
all-goneness in his intellectual
stomach. By the end of the first
week he will wonder what in the
world men find to fill a newspaper
with every day. At the end of two

is, after all, a reservoir, and not a
spring, and it will make him modest.
At the end Of the fourth week he
will heartily wish that he had never
established the paper, and the
chances are he will be looking around
for brilliant writers, to fill the
space that he thought he could fill
without any trouble. To succeed
generally, men have to be trained
to some employment. No man
would take broken watch to a
blacksmith; no man would trust a
severe case of illness to a quack,
knowingly; no man would permit a
chump to put out for him an as
paragus he'd; but most any man
thinks that neither training nor
careful preparation has anything
to do with running a newspaper.
That what is needed is a man in
whose hand 1.-The pen is entirely
great" and the majority of them
think that they thave the hand.
After few weeks trial they are
sadder but wiser men, and we
suspect it will be that way with Mr..
Carnegie. -Goodwin's Weekly.

TAFT BURNS HIS BRIDGES

Rhode Island. the state in which
Senator Aldrich exerts supreme
political influence, gave President
Taft cordial welcome on Monday.
President Taft recicprocated by
lauding the Aldrich-Payne tariff to
the skies-a measure of perfect
wisdom, 1.-The best revenue getter"
we have ever had" AS revenue
getter" the law for which Senator
Aldrich is chiefly responsible may
produce satisfactory results from
the presidents point of view. In
the view of the consumers of the
United States it is revenue get
ter" which cuts deeply into their
pocketboOks, which imposes in
tolorable burdens upon them, which
has advanced the cost of living to
an extent which provokes national
resentment and protest.
President Taft is vastly mistaken
if he thinks that his championship
of the Aldrich-Payne tariff will
convince the people of the United
States that they have been treated
fairly and honestly by the republican
party in respect to tariff revision.
Mr.. Taft probably assumes that
it is his duty as the head of his party
and loyal republican to defend
tariff Legislation which is palpably
for the benefit of privileged in
terests. He has burned his bridge
behind him and taken his stand with
Senator Aldrich and Speaker Can
non and all the other champions of
a tariff law against which a large
section of his own party is in revolt.
This may be loyalty, in the party
sense, but events may prove that it
is not the wisest and broadest kind
of craftsmanship.
1t may please the Rhode Island
hnefciaries of the tariff, but it
will not reconcile the republican
progressives" of the West and con-
sumers generally to the conditions
for which they hold the Aldrich
Payne tariff responsible st. Joseph
