MADERo's MURDER OF EVIL EXAMPLE

The killing of Madero and suarez is shocking to the
prevailing this country. It is, however
by the customs Of the past the usual thing
possible that the procedure by which death admin
stered trie informal than that adopted by
successful Essentially, thing
usual where violence has occurred and government
has replaced with force and arms, another.
The Roman emperors made little fuss when they de-
to enemy condition of desue-
tude. -
Napoleon used file of soldiers whenever he felt that
his position would be improved.
Until within recent years the English relentlessly
treated insurrectionists to strong scaod and
rope.
The execution of politically offensive prisoners is of
weekly Russia. AS for China and Turkey,
the less said the better.
But Russia, China and Turkey backward coun-
tries. Napoleon died long ago. It is years since Eng
land sent Irish patriot to the galows Our civil
is almost half century away It the first great
conflict which produced martyrs after the
done.
Mexico, through General Huerta, has elected the old
fashioned Huerta and his cabinet have ignored the
humane example and the counsel of the United States
They will be sorry, for those who live by the sword
shall die by the sword It will be long before the flood
will cease to flow Mexico. Many life will be secretly
taken before the end.
The shooting Of Madero and suarez is of evil
pie. Mexico is not yet breeding modern of humanity

TO-DAY MARKS ANNIvER-
SARY OF IMPORTANT
FINANCIAL EVENTS.

If this twenty-f1fth of February is
true to FORM" the day will not pass
without some event of Importance to
the financial world, for to-day is the
anniversary of many epochal occur
rences in commercial history.
Most important of all is the semi
centenary of the establishment of the
national banking system of the Unit
ed States-a system which has un-
doubleday worked much good to the
republic, but upon which is placed the
responsibility for many evils. Tt was
on Feb. 25, 1853, during the troubled
period of the civil war, that the ma
tional bank plan was created by act
of Congress. Its purpose was to
give uniformity to the paper currency
and the banking laws of the coun-
try. Many banks hmm ediateIy sur
rendered their State charters and ac-
cepted charters from the federal gov
eminent, and within twenty years the
number of such institutions had
grown to 2,200. Ten years later the
number had passed the 5000 mark,
and in 1903 there were 400 national
banks. The senai-centenniaI birth
day of the system finds about 1850
national banks in existence, with a
total capital of about $1,100, 100000,
surplus of nearly $75O,0O0, 900, and
with annual total net earnings of over
$3.50, 100000 The ratio of dividends

alton was not strong enough to pic
ture the improved condition that the
new way would bring with it,
So we shouldn't blame the ladies
who don't want the women to vote
who are able to vote and wish to.
Those. 5000 members, dear, conserva-
tive souls, are part Of the salt 5f
the earth They make for stability,
bless them. AS long as they and
their descendants are properly nu-
no i'll considered innovation, no sud

better ways.
These are the same ladies who
looked askance at the first woman on
a bicycle, who saw the original
boomers with horror, who witnessed
the original bathing suit with a feel
ing that the world was about to end.
They are the successors of the
same ladies who, a hundred years ago,
regarded EDUCATION for women as
UNWONIANIIY and refusing it them
selves demanded it's denial to other
women.
Such persons are needed. We

that all who yet were free regarded
liberty as their privilege instead of re-
garding it as a principle. The nature
of every privilege is exclusiveness;
that OF principle is communicative.
Liberty is a princip1e-Its community
is it's security - exclusiveness is its
doom. What is aristocracy? Tt is
exclusive liberty. Privilege and aris-
tocracy are doomed because they are
contrary to the destiny and welfare
of man Aristocracy should vanish,

who said, 'tFalsehood, with all her i'm

speak i'll of truth before her face.
Such majesty she carries about her'
that her most prosperous enemies are
fain to whisper their treason. All the
power upon the earth cannot eHt1n-

to her with what name they please,
she makes it not only an ugly ana
unmannerly, but dangerous thing TO
