Therapid growth of banking, notably in the west, duting the past two years, with the facts showing the mortality of these institutions, urge the necessity of more stringent laws for th During 1887 the number of suw te banks organized thro: was three hunaved and representing a total capi- dollar: such r regula- and p out the count ghty-seven tal of nearly fourteen million while last year the number of banks organized was eight hundred and seventy-two., representing a capital of thirty-six million dollars. It is thus seen that the exceptional prosperity of 1888 called into ex- istence considerably more than twice the number of banks that were organ- izod the provious year, with a pretended capital nearly threo times as great, It is unquestionable that a large number of these banking institutions w tablished upon the flimsiest basis, having only a small pa over possible of the capital reprosented paid in, and very little warrant for existence in the con- ditions of business. {In a word, they ited to plunder the public: as conclusively shown in the fact that two hundred and sixty-six of them closed during the year, while one hun- were or is prott e dred and eighty-eight went through the process of reorganization, the total capital represonted by both being about hteen million dollars. The fact that about one bank in evory three started in 1833 was of the “wild- cat’ elass, and t more than half of them were in the westorn states, simprossively that the people of the west have been far too caveless in the matter of bank legislation, and nothing more should be needed to- work a form in this respee sury, and undor prope regulations ave impov other business intere policy of permitting banking with- out adequate restrictions for the pro- tection of the public is dangerous and demoralizing. Tt not only enables unscrupulous men to plundor coufidin depositors and t6 wreck business intor- ests, but it tends to destroy public con- fidence in banking generaliy. The ex- perience of the past your has awakened the people to a just appreciation of this ter, and the promise is good that vemedial legislution will be secured wherever it 1s required sug- ve- Banks are ucces- conditions and wt aids to s, But the "ATE DEPARTMENT. anco of having a strong man at the head of the state depart- ment is urged by existing international complications. By this it is not meant THE ¢ The impor Philadelphia s working in his behalf, and General Harrvison will undoubtedly bo disposed to look favorably upon the ap- plication at the proper time. re- 1f snow falls in But little loss of that the secretary of state should be a bold or brilliant man, ready at resent- mentand prolific in expedients, but one capable of defining a clear and comprehensive policy, consistent with the interests and dignity of the nation, and firmly adhering to it. The depart- ment of state has resumed its place, vacated for some years to the troasury, as the most important of the executive departments, and is likely to long remain s0. Our foreign relations are steadily wssuming, with-the growth of our com- mercial interests, greator consequence. We have reached the time when the greed or cupidity of other nations, com- ing in conflict with our welfare, cannot be permitted to have its way unchal- lenged. Notonly is the duty stronger upon us than ever before to resent every attempt at intrusion upon this contempt by foreign powers, but we are called upon to interpose for the protec- tion of remote regions, lying in the pathway of our commerce, against the arbitrary domination of other countries whose control would be inimical to our interests. It is inevitable that as we advance in wealth and power the condi- tions which now give importance to our foreign relations will not become less grave, while others may be expected to arise from time to time. The depart- ment of state will be no place hereafter for feeble and temporizing statesmen. On the other hand the country does not require a man who may go to the opposite extreme in shaping an inter- national policy, and thereby invite con- troversies and complications. The game of diplomacy requires caution and prudence as well as wisdom and firmn A straightforward, con- sistont policy, true to the tr tions and necessary to the inter- ests of the country, is what is wanted, rather than a hold policy. It is one thing to potter and temporize, s has been done by the presont admin- istration, amd quite another to firmly insist that other nations shall deal with us justly and rvespect our rights. It is considerations of this character that give a peculinr intorest to our speculations as to who will be at the head of the state department under the next administration. Obviously the sottlement of all existing complications will devolve upon thoe next administra- tion. The president has referred the most urgent matter of prosent contro- vorsy to congress, and the probability is thut it will be allowed to remain as it is until the new administra- tion comes in. Thus the next secretal of state will havo u greardeal of seri- ous business to engage his attention at ouce, not the least important and difti- cult part of which may be the necessity of extricating the government from false positions 1 which it has been placed by the blundering of the present secretary of state. Whoever may be chosen to the head of the state depart- ment under the next administration, the country will feel a sense of security against any recklessorimpradent policy in the careful judgment and wise dis- cretion of General Harrison, It is understood that he is al- veady informivg himself regarding the most prossing matter in our inter- national relations, and if he is called upon to deal with it there can be no doubt that the interests and rights of the nation will be cared for as becomes its churacter and dignity WILL PROTECT ITS8 RIGHTS. The board of education has at last taken action t0 protect its vights as a party to the contract entered into with the city council in 1885 for the purpose of erecting a city hall on the corner of Eighteenth and Farnam streets. By the terms of agreement the board bound itself to pay towards the erection of the building a sum equal to one-sighth of cost, not to exceed twerty-five thousund dollars, and on the completion of the city hall the board was to become owner in fee simple of its proportionate share of the building. With the subse- quent proceedings of the council, the taxpayers and citizens of Omaha are familiar. The board has faith- fully lived up to its part of the contract. It has turned over to the use of the city councii the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars to bo pended in the construction of the build- ing. But the councilin direct viola tion of its contract with the board, has repudiated its agreements and has wholly ignored the board of education in its later dealings which have led up to the present disgraceful state of af- fair: But one course was opon to this branch of municipal government so grossly insulted and imposed upon by the council. In duty bound to protect its intorests, the board of education has mstructed its attorney to tuke such proceedings as will compel the council to earry out its torms of the agreement and prevent the use of the funds be- - longing to the board for any other pur- pose than as agreed upon and desi nated in the The board of education has a clear, equitable caso contract. against the council. By its vigorous action the board has rebuked the at- tempt to defraud it of its just elaims its contr ith with and to bre rights. T 1AS been proposed in the senato to call the repr s of the United States to the pr uropean coun- sadors,” instead of “‘envoys and ministors plenipo- i 1t is probuble the changy will be made. The highest diplomati rank is thas of amhassador, and in the opinion of Mr. Sherman it would ed- vance the interests of the country to give the representatives to the four great Kuropean powers this title. There is no reasonable objection to doing this, but it is not quite apparent in what respeet the added dignity would improve the qualifications of a man to bo of greater service to the country or his oppor- tunities for usefulne Perhaps the title would give him cer- tain court privileges and social prece- dence not accorded to the inferior rank, but it could not muke him a wiser diplomator a move patriotic guardian of his country’s interests.

Now let the statesman step forward who will solve these var- jous problems with honor and profit to our dignity. THERE is nothing incredible in the report that Colonel Fred Grant would like to be minister to China, and there would doubtless be no objection from any source to his appointment. There is perhaps no other mission which, for the next few years, will make fewer demands upon o diplomatic representa- tive of the United States than that to China, and therefore the fact that Col- onel Grant has had no experience of this kind need not stand in his way. He would doubtless get as respectful consideration from the C'hinese govern- ment ps any other man going from the United States, auna the toleration of an American minister in China is about all we can reasonably expect. CHAIRMAN COOLEY, of the inter-state commerce commission wants the inter- state act s0 amended as to define what shall be considered excursion and com- mutation tickets; to prohibit all pay- ments of commissions on the sale of tickets, and to prevent all sale of tiekets cxeept by regular agents of the railroads. The purpose of such an act is of coursa to stop the discrimination between passengers and to cut off the ousiness of secretly cutting rates under- stood so well by general passenger agents and ticket scalpers, It is one thing, however, to pass such laws, but it is another thing to correct the abuses. THE information comes from Wash- ington by way of Minueapolis, that Mr. Johin M. Thurston “positively asserts” that he would not accept u place in General Harrison'’s cabinet, It would scem from this, supposing it to be cor- rect, that Mr. Thuvston has received some conclusive inside information, for certainly no man has worked harder thun he to crowd himself upon the at tention of Genoral Harrison as a cand date for a cabinet position.
