The trouble with the Riggs
bank is complimentary to the
treasury officials. It indicates
the treasury department is
managed by men who are no
respectors of persons. All
banks look alike to them
whether owned by John D.
Rockefeller or someone else. It
is a wholesome sign because in
the last decade there has been
too much kowtowing to big

T1IK ONE GLAD MESSAGE.
City henrs a message from the
wailing country ranch:

such laws would not be laid
aside to suit the conveniences
of the average citizen.
Such actions as that are bad

coveries made is that wives
who are physically large and
are willing workers are seldom
deserted by their husbands. At
least not in Chicago.
This will be a sad jolt to
those who believe that love
matches are made by the little
god with the bow and arrow.
It will also be a warning for
women who are not of substan
tial size with a capacity for
husky work to stay far away
from the city on tne Great
Lakes.
There is not much poetry in
the findings of the bureau of
public welfare but there may
be some truth in what they
say.

THE RIGGS BANK CASE
HERE is widespread pub-
done nothing to be ashamed of.
THE ABATEMENT LAW
ff N view of the raid Saturday
J night and the state of af
fairs alleged to have been
found it seems timey to call
attention to the abatement law
passed by the legislature of
1913. Under that law a build
ing used for purposes of prosti
tution may be declared a nuis
ance and section five of the law
says :
"a JlLlib 13 Wluespreau puu-! me existence oi tne nuisance no
ill i; ;r,o0f in tho rnnfro-' established In a suit as provided In
"" t. i t;a tnu act. an order of abatement shall
versy between ine niggs be entere1
as a part of the Judgment
National Bank of ashington ; in
the case, which order shall direct
and tthe treasury department the removal from the building
and the interest is heightened
by the fact the bank is a Rocke
feller instittion.
It is charged by Controller
Williams that the bank has
been conducting a brokerage
business, with private tele
phone and telegraph lines to
"Wall street; that nearly $1,
000,000 has been loaned to
women speculators on scant se-
c urity ; that large sums were in the preceding section.
CURRENT THINKING
THE GERMAN SEA ROVERS
(From the Atlanta Constitution.)
The careers of the determined and
heroic German sea rover any one
of them carry us back to the swash
buckling days of the Spanish main
to the Jean Marts and to the career
of our own commerce destroying Ala
bama. It Is largely a difference of
better ships, better guns, better am
munition; cut out the improvements
in machinery and Its simply a ca.e
of history's repetition, perhaps with
heroism multiplied.
The ancient privateersman, with
his stone-throwing catapult to bat
ter In the sides to trlremed commerce
lives in history. We have written ro
maiu-a after romance around the
corsuir and his. crude itiuule-loailing
six-pounder; but what shall we say
of the K mil en that sunk her two
score and more of merchant ships
before superior force drove her upon
the Indian coast, a battered wreck?
What of the Scharnhorst, the Gnel
sonau, the Dresden and their con
sorts that sank a British armored
fleet and preyed on commerce In the
southern seas until England sent out
a force capable of quickly pounding
them to the bottom? What of the
tierman admiral who went down with
his fleet rather than surrender even
when his ship was sinking. What of
those doughty converted cruisers
Prince Eltel Friedrlch and Kron
Prlnz Wilhelm, that slipped Into
Norfolk with their well notched gun
butts'' in the very teeth of hostile
warships any one of which might have
made short work of them? And the
list Is not yet complete; there's still
the Karlsruhe and the fleet of fear
less, death-courting submarines that
know no limit to Intrepidity but
achievement at whatever cost.
It will remain for history to tellj
In all its vivid coloring the story of;
these heroic German raiders who j
plied and swept the seas, careless of
the fact that there were enemies
close at hand capable of pouring in
to them hundreds of thousands of
tons of steel and bursting shell and
generations will read of It fifty, a
hundred years away with even great
er Interest than we of today. Ancient
and mediaeval heroism would seem
to pale beside the dashing Intrepidity
of these modern rovers of the sea,
who in the teeth' of almost certain
death, sent down a dozen ships where
their prototypes sank one. It was
the difference In machinery, but the
same bravery, the same thoughtless
ness of death for fatherland was
there, multiplied, If anything, to
many times.
We shall not attempt to explain
why humanity that loves a daring
fight wants age to season It; but we
will predict that when so seasonei
throua-h coming years, the German
ees. rover of today will live, a larga
and dominating figure In history')
romance told but not yet written.
the Navy Daniels Issued his famous
order prohibiting the use of Intoxi
cating liquors on ships of the I'nlted
States navy or In naval station prem
ises. It Is worth recalling now.
That order was received with a
good deal of Ill-suppressed anger by
naval officers, who found themselves
deprived of what they considered a
time-honored right to "take suthln' "
with their meals and at other times
specified or unspecified. They could
not. however, say very much about
!t without Infringing discipline, so
they took their medicine or rather,
refrained from taking It with as
good a gruce as possible.
But outside the navy the critics of
the administration, and of Mr. Dan
iels In particular, were not so discreet.
They Jeered at the order, ridiculed
the secretary as a "grape Juice" ex
ecutive and declared unreservedly
that the prohibition ukase would
make the United States navy tho
"laughing stock of the world "
Has it? We have looked and lis
tened,, and cannot discover on the
other side of the water anything ap
proaching laughter at or scorn of
I'nole Sam's navy because rum ha
been abolished from Its ships arid
yards.
What do we find Instead of the
ridicule that wus prophesied Is some
thing very different. We find Hus
sla under absolute prohibition. We
find France forbidding the sale ol
absinthe. We find King George, Lord,
Kitchener and Lloyd George seriously
considering a nation-wide ban on al
coholics. We find the premiers of
New Brunswick and Nova Scotia op
enly endorsing prohibition for their
Canadian provinces. And we shall
find more of the same thing tomor
row and the next day and the next.
The I'nlted States navy remain
"dry." Neither Its efficiency nor lt
morale has been hurt on that ac
count. If It has shortcomings that 1f
not because of the absence of alco
hol. And Instead of becoming thai
laughing stock of other nations, it
Is becoming the exemplar, rather. It
is perfectly pertinent to ask ths crit
ics of a year ago: How about It

Signature of
loaned to the bank's officers
and clerks on speculative se-j
curities; that the cashier was
loaned $63,500 on stocks of
very little value ; that the presi
dent of the bank got a loan of
$86,000 by means of a note
pigned by an assistant teller,
and that dummy loans to the
officials were common.
The natural question arises
why this Rockefeller bank
phould not have to toe the mark
of governmental requirements
just as other banks are re
quired to do. Under the law
national banks have to be cir
cumspect in' their conduct.
They may use their funds only
for certain purposes and then
under certain limitations. They
must keep their accounts sub
ject to inspection at any time
nd it is for the public protec
tion this is done.
From appearances the Rock-
or
pla'-e of all fixtures, furniture, mu
sical Instruments or movable proper
ty used in conducting the nuisance
and shall direct the. sale thereof In
the manner provided for the sale of
chattels under execution, and the ef
fectual closing of the building or place
against its use for any purpose, and
so keeping It closed for a period of
of one year, unless sooner released.
If any person shall break and enter
or use a building, erection or place
so directed to be closed, he shall be
punished for contempt as provided
For remov
ing and selling the movable property
the officer shall be entitled to charge
and receive the same fees as he would
levy upon and selling like property
for execution, and for closing the
premises and keeping them closed a
reasonable sum shall be allowed by
the courts.
Section six of the law pro
vides that the proceeds from
the sale of the personal prop
erty shall be used in defraying
the costs of the suit and abate
ment. It may be seen from the
foregoing that property owners
or lessees who allow buildings
used for questionable purposes
are liable to financial loss. The
abatement law if enforced
should help solve the disorderly
house problem.
