ABOUT OUR BANKS.
Let us look back for a moment at the
events of the last few months In Asto
ria and the, county generally. The fin
oiicial storm, of which we were lucky
enough to catch only the ragged edge,
has passed away, and with the revival
of business will become only a recol
Icellou. Mr. I. W. Case, one of the most
conservative and reliable bankers In
the state, has gone under, but the
prospects are that In a few weeks the
doors of his Institution will once more
bo open for publlo business with an In
creased patronage. All the banks of
tills city have a good deal of money on
hand at the present time. The officers
peem to be uncertain whether deposit
ors who have given notice of an inten
tion to draw their funds will do so or
not. Some have cancelled their notices,
and It Is generally believed thnt In
nnny of the other rimes the money
will never be willed for. If such nn ex
perlence us that of two months ago Ib
repeated, Investments will only be
be made in such securities as can be
readily sold on the market with thu re
sult that the rati, of Interest paid by
the bunks will be considerably reduced.
Theie banks have done remarkably
well for their depositors. Only one fail
ure hus been recorded In this vicinity,
Tho thirty and sixty day notices voie
roqulM i as u nieiins o'' cheeUMi , a
groundlesM scure, which, if this action
hud not been taken, would have result
ed In crippling some banks which have
weathered the storm In good allium. If
depositors have profiled by their exiier
lonco, and have got It Into their heads
Unit bunks cannot put their money out
where it will earn Interest and also be
prepared to pay It bock nt n moment's
notice to lurge numbers of depositor
wli i nmy lake It Into their bends to
cnll for It, then these lmnkx limy con
tinue to bo of great service lo a large
rnd ever growing body of Irupnl nnd
Industrious people.
THE CltAND JimY SYSTEM.
Of couin-? everybody understands
tin I our r murks In connection with
tlii grand Jury system were quite Im
personal. No man who Is druwn on n
gir.nd Jury Is to blnme If his experi
ence, knowledge and education do not
f,t him for ths position. It Is the ss
Itta thnt puts him there, tho rule that
foists him Into a strange and unnatur
al sphere, that we denoi nee. In several
states of tlr Vnlon grand Juries have
leen abolished. In others, notably
Pennsylvania, the manner of selecting
riiep to serve Is totally different to what
If Is with us. Apropos, we append
Something from yesterday's States
i.nn: "In old times there were very few
(inlenipanor atts. The statesmen con
t.Mited themselves with punishing the
i-im! offenders against perrons and prop
riv. Notorious fflons whom th public
feared stood la aw alone of the secret
Inquiry Of grand Juries, and no one
complained without good reason as u
general thing. Now there are so many
offenses cognizable by such Juries and
so much doubt Involved as to the real
merits of most of such complaints thut
this one-sided hearing, If It result in
anything, acquittal Is almost certain on
trial. After a spiteful scallawag will
complain of a neighbor the Jury In
dicts, whereas a few questions to an
impartial witness would show perhups
the complainant Is the one who should
be Indicted, If either. It should be a
plain, clear case to Justify all the form
ality of long, costly trials. As It is, ono
Is often amazed at the trifling matters
for which Indictments are made.
The cause of having one-sided inqui
Billons originally, long since passe
away. The whole condition of society
bus changed. Secrecy is rarely neces
sary and partiality of course becomea
unnecessary."
WILL THEY DO IT
According to the census of 1890, ther
were 106,688 Chinese in this country- Of
these 13,243 have registered and 93,41!
have not. The secretary of the treas
ury thinks that $700,000 will be needed
at once to send such Chinamen back as
will not comply with the conditions of
the Geary law, and additional funds
will be required later.
Now assuming even that the Mo
Creary amendment we spoke of yester
day falls to pass (and this, It must be
remembered, Is almost Impossible) will
the democratic congress vote the mon
ey? Will Mr. Ilolmnn, for Instance, who
objected to having the Ford's Theater
building In Washington, D. C put in
to such condition that It would not
fall down nnd crush the inmates there
of, vote In favor of an instalment of
$700,000 for deporting the Chinese? The
Mongolians have some objectionable
characteristics, It Is true, There are
other elements in our population equal
ly objectionable, however, and the fact
that tho latter are unmolested makes
he treatment of the Chinese savor of
Injustice. It Is quite certain that the
people of this country are not prepared
to pay $6,000,000 for deporting the China
men even though some of their tricks
are dark, some of their ways vain and
peculiar, and some of their customers
blackguards.
"Judge Page, the new collector of
Astoria," says the Portland Dispatch,
took possession of his office Inst Sat
urday, nnd all tho republlcanc btepped
down and out, except the first deputy
The Judge Is a business man nnd was
not hampered with a dozen or two
promises for each plnce, as was the
case In Portland, and necessitated a
delay of nearly two months."
If Collector Page was not hampered
by a dozen or two promises, It was
hardly the fault of the Importunate In
dividuals who besieged his ears nnd
his poHtolIlee box morning, noon, and
night.
The Boston Herald makes this
break:
"It Is not altogether probnble that
President Cleveland knew how absurd
a person Mr. Van Allen, whom he has
nominated for minister to Italy Is."

Cleveland's Btrong points.

Heart Failure.
HOW TO AVOID IT.
The enitnpH on many a tombstone is
"heart failure." No wonder, when wo con
sider the immense strain wliicli is put on
thnt small organ. Marvelous us i t is, beating
100,000 times nnd exerting a force equal to
5,184,000 pounds daily, it lias its limit its
endurance often is too severely tested. So
common are diseases of tho heart though
often for a considerable time without the
suspicions of Clio nlllicted person being in
the least excited that it is stated that one
person in four hat a bad heart t Dr. Franklin
Miles, of Elkhart, Ind., has for years made
a special study of all diseases of the heart.
and his remarkable success hus made his
name a familiar one in all parts of our land.
He has found the most common symptoms
of heart disease to bo pain, distress or tender
ness in tho chest, back, stomach, bowels, left
shoulder and arm, shortness of breath, smother
iny spells, fainting, etc.
Mr. George 11. Smith, of Barnes, Yates
Co., JN. Y., writes: "Dr. miles' .New
Heart Curb has worked wonderfully on
viind and body so 1 can do a good day's work.
1 feel ten years youmjer and tako moro interest
in afluirs. I had shortness of breath, palpi
tation, pnin under left shoulder blade, pain
around tha heart, 1 could not deep on my riqhl
side. Sinco I huvo taken Dr. Miles' New
Heart Cure 1 sleep well, and have no palpita
tion. It has made my heart stronrier. I wish
you would print this, because I want all to
know what Dr. Miles' Heart Cure has done
for me."
"For months mv wife suffered with valoi-
union, mothering spelts, and was unable to
sleep on her left side. She tried several
doctors without relief. Your Heart Cure
was recommended. After taking three
bottles, she tully recovered her health.
Your medicines do what vou claim." CHAS.
