ton makes use OF tho postal savings
bank. The Intelligencer ventures TO
guess that a fair trial given the postal
savings bank in Parkersburg will de-
velop the fact that that city has just
about as many people who are afraid
OF the commercial banks and who
have been keeping their savings in
stockings and coffee pots. as other
cities OF the same size in the country
have. The amount of boarded money
In the United States is beyond all
computation. II the large sums that
are being constantly minted remained
continuously in circulation. financial
panics would be almost an impossl-
bility. The postal savings bank is
in no sense a competitor OF the ordl-
nary savings bank. II supplements
the activities OF the strictly CONNER
cial bank and will prove a mainstay
and support 10 them in times OF dis
tress. Let Parkersburg give its postal
savings bank a fair trial. and the
newspapers will not have so much
fault 10 find with il.

No comic feature published in any

feature by Bud Fisher. which will
hereafter appear in the Intelligencer.
The addition Of this splendid series
TO the already large number OF special

TWO THOUGHTS.

Here are two thoughts for those
Republican farmers who profess
earnest Indignation against President
Taft on account OF the Canadian reel
procity treaty.
Flrst-The Canadian reciprocity
treaty was enacted into law bv the
solid Democratic vote in congress. as
well as the votes OF a large number
OF Republican congressman.
Second-If moderate tariff reduc-
ton on a very small number Of
products is distasteful. how will they
relish the far more drastic tariff re-
duction which is certain to follow the
election OF a Democratic congress and
a Democratic President?
The Intelligencer does not doubt
that very great many honest and
sincere voters have been deceived as
TO the character and effect OF the
reciprocity treaty. II is our firm con-
viction that the price OF most farm
products. II not all. viii not be ma
terially affected by Canadian importa.
tions. On the other hand the stimulus
given 10 trade between the two cOun.
tries will be beneficial TO all classes
Of citizens. However this NAV be.
one thing is certain. and that IS. at
many points moderate tariff reduc.
tons may be safely made and will be
beneficial 10 the country as a whole.
The question 10 be decided il whether
these reductions Will be made by peo.
PIE who believe in the basic policy
OF protection. or whether they will
be made by FREQ traders. Momentary
Irritation against the trainers OF this
or that particular schedule should not
cloud this essential fact. A Repub.
hcan congress and n Republican Presi.
dent will revise the tarifr in accord.
ance with Republican principles.
which mean reasonable protection 10
every American industry. 4 Demo.
cratic congress and a Democratic
President will revise tho tariff with.
out regard 10 the effect OF that 70.
vision upon manufacturers and with.
out regard to the principle OF protec.
ton.

suggested by the recent remark cred.
tied to the manager OF the leading
employment house In Chicago: mo
able bodied man need want work
more than a short time. Every day
In the year I have applications for
men that simply go to waste because
l can't I'LL them. Ninety per cent OF
the unemployed don't want to work. e
p. c. Marsh. secretary OF the Penn
sylvania society to protect children.
recently studied lis "unemployed
men" He found that log had given
up one or more Jobs in six months.
Employment was secured for 81. but
only six of these men stuck to their
work. Forty-five men. when they
learned that work was being sought
for them. suddenly disappeared. Mr..
Marsh put on old clothes one day and
tramped the streets looking for work.
He was offered Is Jobs.
The starting OF public enterprises
Tor the purpose OF furnishing employ
ment is not wholly success. An
English report on such an institution
states that men would give up Jobs
paying 20 shillings per week to take
public Jobs for the unemployed pay.
ing Ave to seven shillings per week
for part time.
The above. however, is not the
whole picture. The number OF people
who have been physically enfeebled
by child labor is far greater than we
suppose. A host OF men 25 TO 80
years old find all their vitality sapped
by the strain OF toll at an age when
they should have been at school and
negotiating in the open air. Who can
blame them II their blood flows cold
and pale. II they have no heart for
the Industry that cheers the normal
man.
Nuremberg. Germany. and many
other European cities make It their
regular policy TO construct public
works in periods when many men are
out OF work. In our country. when an
appropriation is secured. we are too
much In n hurry 10 wait for a time
OF general unemployment. Besides.
in our grating and shifty politics. the
funds might not be available at 4 later
date. The more centralized cities of
the continent are in better shape to
pursue that far reaching policy OF
economy and humanity.

KEEP ANNIVERSARY
 OF ASSASSINATION
Forty-Six Years Ago John Wilkes B9oth Shot Ab-
 rahsm Lincoln

WASHINGToN, D. C., April l4.- One of .ne most notable anniver- saries ct important events connected with the Ststory of the Civil war per tod in this country, is the forty-sSxth anniversary of the assassination Of President Abraham Lincoln, who was shot and mortally wounded at tord's the3tre by John Wilkes Booth, an actor, while attending a perforr.- ance of Our American Cousin" on the evening Of April IA, 1865. in com memoration of the day the flags on all public buildings were at half mast all day and commemorative services were held by many of the patriotic Societies.
 The bloody section struggle be tween the north and the south had just ended by the surrender of Gen. Lee and the country was rejoicing over the conclusion Of the civil war which had cost so many precious lives and enormous sacrifices of money. President Lincoln had been busy all day. In the morning be had a long conference with his son, Capt. Lincoln. in the course of which he dissuaded him from continuing a military career. Later fin the fore noon the president attended the last meeting of his cabinet. All the mem- bers of the cabinet were present on that occasion, excepting MT. Seward, the secretary of state. who had brok- en his jaw by fall from his horse. His seat was occupied by Gen. Grant. The terms of Lees surren- der were discussed and approved and President Lincoln strongly ex- pressed himself against any harsh measures in the south.
 During the afternoon the president received many visitors and when the evening came, he was tired and would have liked to rest, but he did not wish to disappoint the crowds at the theatre and, accompanied by the members of his family. occupied the stage box, especially decorated for the occasion. It was after the close of the first act that Booth fired the fatal shot and escaped during the indescribable excitement following his deed. Lincoln wes carried to tailor shop opposite the theatre and there died early the following morn ing.

UN6uRIEo BODIES.

No surprise need have been oc- casioned by the finding of two ! odies south Of the Mexican line yes terday, beyond the fact that they Lad been left so long unburied. The fight occurred on Sunday and three days later the International stated
 hat there were two unburied bodies
 ying uncared for on the field. It is probable that there are other bodies still out there, possibly of nine more.
 The correct statement of the ngm- her killed was not given out directly after the fight. It was later learned that an official had stated privately the actual fatalities on both sides totalled thirty-two. It is known that twenty-one were buried, so there are nine bodies still to be accounted for. The bodies reported lie at the spot where the fighting first occurred when the insurrectos were surprised ly coming suddenly upon the fed eral forces
