on the contrary. we wish to conduct
ourselves like reasonable human
beings. We can not initiate the
murderer.
Let us, at least, be honest about
it. When We cry for blood, we
only are shouting aloud our own
defeat. For We have failed, sor-
didly, shamefuliy, to cope with
crime in any sensible fashion. Our
whole legal system tends to pro-
mote rather than lessen 1t. The
gangster is the result Of our mass
dishonesty, our vile political rack
eteering. our spoils system.
To be effective. punishment must
be swift and sure. The law should
act quick as dagger thrust. Most
important Of all. the crimes that go
on in this country within the law"
under the sanction of the courts and
the people. must cease. before we
can hope TO rid ourselves Of bandits.

Outside Help

By Just A Hoosier.
An Indianapolis company has
been sending to Kentucky and
bringing UP men and women to
work in the mill. I was over there
last Saturday to see about Job
and there were from ten to fif-
teen men with letters from the
company telling them to come up
and go to work. I saw the let
tiers and one was to a man up in
Michigan.
This doesn't look as though an
Indianapolis citizen has chance.
All you have to do is tell them
you are from Kentucky and you
get job.

compromise I would accept. I do not

and dinners and such like 1 recon-
mend a soft shirt open at the neck.
I have never understood Just why
mans coat should be sacred.
Hotels and restaurants seem 10 be
finicky on this point, and their
Puritanical attitude should be brok-

I am encouraged by picture

his coat off except the mayor. And,
as far as I'm concerned, that makes

LOAN MEN SEEK
BILL CHANGE

Local and national building
loan league officials are con-
cerned over the effect on building
loan associations Of sections liz
of President Roosevelt'S proposed
Federal securities act. These Sec
tions provide for registering every
new security with the Federal
Trade Commission, with a mini
mum fee of $50 and a maximum
of one one-hundredth per cent
of the value of the offering.
c. Clinton James, Of this city,
chairman of the Federal legisla-
tive committee of the league, pre-
sented to the House and Senate
committees conducting hearings
on the bill an amendment which
leaves the building and loan
associations subject to two parts
of the measure which they ap-
prove, but would relieve them Of
some of the duties they would
have to perform under the first
part of the bill.
Explaining this request, Morton
BodflSh, executive manager, said
that the nature of building and
loan investments, being more
similar to deposits in mutual
savings banks than to issues Of
stocks and f1otation of bonds,
would make it a continuous
burden upon them to comply with
the provisions of the first part,
and would probably retard sys-
tematic savings by hampering the
community institutions which
have kept their shareholders
$8,0O0,OOO,O0O not only safe but
out of speculation.
He cited the example of the
national banks which are ex-
cepted from the onerous registra-
ton details of the first part of
the measure. Mr.. Bodfish told
the committee he was speaking
for 11,442 member associations
with 11,338,OOO shareholders.

P. D. RECEIPTS
R|SE|N MARCH

Postal receipts at the local post
office showed a marked rise in
March, 1888, over the same month
for 1882, the Postoffice Depart
ment reported today.
This is in sharp reversal Of
the general trend throughout the
country. Receipts here last
month were $759, ,088.59, while in
March, 1882, they were only $494,-
03O.96, an improvement Of $685.
O57.93.
This is by far the largest in
crease shown by any postoffice
in the country. March receipts
here even show a small improve
ment over March, 1881.
Presumably the great activity
in Washington since the arrival
Of the new Administration is
partly responsible for the jump,
but no official explanation has
appeared.
