y road lay by the brook
| where dropping branches flung a shade;
II loafed beside the leafy nook
Where butterflies In summer played:
II erept along among the fields
Where birds sang welcomes to the morn
And where. proud with its clashins
shields,
There stood the army OF the corn
The little road roamed idly on
Across the valley sweet the dew,
Until the silver sky Of dawn
Changed into one OF deepest blue;
The rugged cliffs forgot to frown
Upon the little road that wound
Around them to the little town
The solemn cliffs asked: WHITTIER
bound?"
II rambled through the village street
Wnere swaying fences henlmed 1t in
the roses, tremulous and sweet
Asked what the goal II thought to win
But on the little road now went
With newer dreams and newer will
Until at last well nigh forspent,
II climbed atop the highest hill
And then II ran away! 1t ran
TO where there gloomed the city's
II heard the rumble of the van,
II heard the hammer, stroke on stroke:
And now the little road was seized,
was curbed. and held, and fashioned
straight
An, 1t recalled the breeze that leased
The roses at the swaying gate!
And 1t remembered all the hooks
Where lazy trees through drowsina,
Moons
Bent, listening to little brooks
That lulled the flowers = with their
croons;
And 1t thought of the peoples bold
Ihat flung their banners in the wheat
now II was firmly in the hold
OF city wall and city street
And day and night and night and day
IT heard the roses calling low;
From far and far and far away
Called all the joys 1t used to know:
The grass that bothered 1t one time
Called to 1.-The road that 1t come home
And find the hills 1t used to climb
Before 1t thought that 1t must roam.
The little road would often yearn
TO seek again the meadows fair.
But 1t was never let return,
Was forced the city's toll to bear
And there be men who make their moan
OF binding way and grinding load.
AND dream OF Joys they once have known,
AS does the foolish little road.

with respect TO this, upon which Comp.
troller Murray wishes to place all of
the banks of the United States
We arc surprised to find that in
many parts of the country overdrafts
arc still not only permitted by the Ma,
ilonal banks. but that these over
drafts amount TO an average of S25-
100000. and have. in some wears.
reached as high as 500 100000 We are
surprised at this, because the over
drafts are complacentlv stated by the
New England newspapers as occurring
chiefly IN the banks of "thc West and
South
But, as everyone In this region knows.
the banks of Salt Lake City have, for
number Of years past, frowned upon
overdrafts and have forced their dis.
continuance So that the banks OF
Salt Lake City are, and have been
for a good while past, practically
on the same basis as that which
the boasted New England banks claim
to be upop, and thereon found their
claim of being the soundest in the
country. Salt Lake City bankers un-
dertook this reform. and enforced 1T
even before Comptroller Murray laid

THE PEACE TREATIES.

me reassembling Of Congress on the
first Monday Of December turns the
public attention anew to the unrescrved
arbitration treaties that are now pend
ing IN the Senate. During his recent
tour 10 the West coast and to tho South.
President Taft gave a good deal of at
tention TO cXpoundinC the dcsirabilty
Of ratltyjng these: treaties He cx.
planned their points. and took issue rs
a lawyer with the Senate Committee re-
port adverse TO the ratification of the
treaties in their present form. And
now the voice Of Cardinal Gibbons,
sounding loud and clear in favor of
the ratification of those treaties cm-
phaslzes the immincnco of their con-
sidcration by the Senate, and the i'm
portancc of ratification by that body.
There seems 10 be no reason TO doubt
that the President has the country
with him on this point. and there is a
preponderancc of opinion in his favor
on the legal point involved.
First Of all. President Taft is him
self one of the greatest LAWYERS in the
country. He has given the matter long
and earnest attention, and his couclu-
sion that the treaties are entirely CON
stitutonal is, in itself. entitled TO great
weight.
He is reinforced in this by an en-
phatic letter from former Senator
George +. Edmunds. who. while in the
Senate, was considered the greatest
constitutional LAWYER IN that body lie
is recognized on all hands now as one
of the greatest constitutional lawyers
living. and his voice in favor of the
treaties is voice of weight, He an
alyzes not only the treaty with Great
Britain in its various parts. but he an
alyzcs the treaty provisions of the u,
S, Constitution as applied practically
to the questions involved, His con.
clusion is. first Of all, that the treaty
making power lodged by the constitu
tion with the President and the Sen
ate is unlimited, and is not to be dele
gated to any other body whatever; 1T
must remain precisely as the constitu-
tion fixes it, But the treaty making
