G row th o f Mutual Siivlngs Hanks. The mutual savings banks o f New England are beginning to llnd favor in the west, which Is go*>d news for those who have ,n little to save and wish to he reasonably sure o f its security. If tbe western projectors of such Institu tions strictly follow the New England model they can sleep easy o’ night Conservatively managed, with rent and clerk hire as their only expense, they give to their depositors nearly all of their earnings, and If munag<*d strictly lu accordance with law they cannot fail while the government lasts. A few such provident Institutions are In successful operation In Wisconsin, one o f them, the Rololt Savings bank, which was cradled In a Justice’s other | In 1882. having now $800,!KU1 to the »■redlt o f Its 4,300 depositors. Knowl edge of the success of these banks has ! sprend throughout the state and the \ demand by farmers anil wage earners for their multlpllentlon l«*»l recently to a revision o f the laws simplifying the organization o f such Institutions. He enuse of their trustworthiness and their mutual features they nre likely 'n dm* season to almost wholly, If n»*t entirely. auperse»le the private savings banks. P ro fa n ity In Pu blic. It Is to be hoped that the recent In cident at Oyster Bay, in which a bicyclist was taken to tusk for using profanity bemuse his way was mo mentarily blocked by the carriage of President U«x>sevelt on tin* way to church, will have th»> effect o f lessening the prevalence o f the disgusting and utterly us«>l»*ss habit o f using profane and vulgar language in public places. In ordering the removal »if the offender against common decency the presi dent's action was no more than It should have been. It would have been gratifying had the time and the eir- cumstauees permltte»! nil Immediate »lrnstle punishment o f the boor by primitive methods. Doubtless had the offending bicyclist known o f the prox imity o f the president's carriage he would have been more discreet, but that made no difference In the <lt*gr»*e o f Ills misconduct. There Is nothing to Indicate that his rights were In- vu»led. ami even had they been his be havior would have remained wholly Iti- dcfenslhle. The habit o f swearing In public, or Indeed anywhere. Is offensive nn<l Is usually condemned by the laws and police regulations, though It has be come so common ns to be almost a na tional evil. The street corner talk of loungers Is often untit for the ears of decent p<*»*ple. Men indulge In the grossi'st forms o f expression without thought for the sensibilities of passers, and seldom do creatures of this ilk think to lower their voices in the pres ence »>f women and children. It would be well if an occasional prosecution scrvctl the excellent purpose of emphn sizing the fa»'t that society holds to »‘er ^ * * * ^ % ^ tain conventions as to speech which cannot be lightly disregarded.
