CHICAGO, Jan. 8. The standpoints
from which the aristocrat and the Demo
crat view -society And- Its activities formed
the theme of a speech delivered here to
night by William J. Bryan at the Jack
is on : Day banquet of the" Jefferson Club.
Prominent party men from several "West
ern states were present the occasion be
,1ns generally regarded as the formal
opening of Mr. Bryan's campaign for the
Democratic nomination for tle Presidency
at the Denver convention next" July. ;
Among the other' speakers wore AdJal E.
'Stevenson, ex-vice-president ' of Bloom
In pton, HI., .and United States Senator
William J. Btone of Missouri. The
speakers generally confined themselves
fto Issues of the day. Pleas for party
harmony were frequent. Previous to the
banquet most of the leaders present con
ferred with Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan said
1h part:
Difference in Viewpoint. ' . t
The questions which involve a discussion
of th relative .sphere of the Nation and
the . State bring; out the difference in the
point of view of the aristocrat 'and "the
democrat The aristocrat wants' to get the
governipent as far away from the people
as possible; the democrat desires to bring
the government as near the -people as pos
sible. The aristocrat woufJti eubstltute Na
tional remedies for State ones, because
predatory wealth can protect itself from
National legislation more easily than from
t6tate legislation ; the democrat would add
the National remedy to the State remedy
and thus give to the people the protection
.of both the State and Federal frovernments.
The labor Question is corsidered from
both standpoints. The aristocrat thinks
'only mf the large employers; the democrat
of the army of employes and of the gen-
,eral public, which Is Inconvenienced by any
disruption of friendly relations between em
ployes and employer.
The question of imperialism in like man
ner presents the difference in viewpoint.
The Imperialist thinks more of the exten
sion' of commerce than of the preservation
of the ideas of self-government, - and he
thinks only of the benefits that might
come to commerce: the democrat knows
that trade purchased at ' the cannon's
.mouth costs more, than it. Is worth, and
that the cost falls uoon all the people,
while the profits accrue to but a. few.
Financial Policy Aristocratic..
And bo, whatever question we take up.
we find that everything depends upon the
point of view from which we examine the
question, and there is no better illustration
'of this than can be found In the financial
stringency through which 'we are passing.1
'The Republican leaders rushed ,to the res
cue of the banks after those banks had
brought the stringency upon the country by
their unbusinesslike methods. The banks
of the rent- of the country were d incrimi
nated against In favor of the banks of New
.York City, and after the Government had
exhausted the loanable surplus in the
'Treasury; it borrowed money -at 3 per cent
In order -that It roicht have xnopey to 'loan
to the banks for nothing: and the high
financiers count It "patriotism to loan out at
emergency" rates the treasury money fur
nished the'm . without Interest. If the Re
publican leaders had szent half as much
time In trying to make depositors secure
as they have spent in trying to Increase
-the profits of the bankers, we should not
have had any panic at all.
The country Is ripe for the application of
Democratic principles to government, and
all that is necessary is for the Democratic
party to convince the people that It will
be truly Democratic, If entrusted with
power. "Will the Democratic party be
Democratic T Let It convince the public
that It will be and we shall have a vic
tory which will be fruitful in bjesslnos to
very , pari of the country and to every ele
ment of our population.
Stevenson Sees Good Prospect.
Mr. Stevenson - spoke earlier '- in the
evening. He said in part:
"We enter upon the Presidential contest
of 1908 with splendid prospects of success.
The prospects are bright ; the omens all
. n.utpicious. With' the living issues antag
onism to trusts, tariff reform, rigid econ
omy in public expenditures, honest meth--oda
in all departments of the public service;
a proper recognition of the true functions
of each separate department of the Gov
ernment; a return from hftardoua experi
ment In administration to the safe pathway
of the fathers with these well to the fore
front, the hour of Democratic opportunity
has come". To the end that It might prove
likewise the hour of Democratic triumph,
lot the spirit .of conciliation, of unity, of
harmony, be invoked upon all our counsels.
VHT DEMOCRATS ARE DIVIDED
Judge O'Brien Says Party Often
Deserts Its Principles.
- KETVT YORK, Jan. 8. Speaking to the
topic. "Why is the Democratic Party Di
vided? Morgan J. O'Brien. ex-Justice of
'the Appellate Division of the New York
Supreme Court, who was the guest of the
Democratic National Club tonight, der
dared -that, if the causes that hava di
vided the Democratic party were sum
marized, it would be found "that they
have been due to our failure to stand
firmly for Democratic principles and to
a preference shown by some for popular,
shifting, sentiment as contrasted with
sound doctrine, and to a preference for
men rather than a reverence for party
tradition."
Grover Cleveland, who was unable to be
prefnt. sent his compliments in a letter
in which he expressed the conviction that
the situation confronting the people had
directed their attention more to their
relief from conditions that alarmed and
startled them than to the empty satisfac
tion of partisan supremacy.
Kx -Justice O'Brien, after referring in
highly complimentary terms to Mr. Cleve
land, and by Inference to Alton B. Parker
as "an ideal candidate," said: .
Whenever the party has stood firmly and
unitedly for its principles, - we have never
mt with a defeat, and it has only been
when the party has been divided ' because
of the hope that success would result from
fallowing some shifting, popular sentiment
or some new and impracticable, reform, that
we hare met with overwhelming and de
served defeat. To ascertain the cause of
Mils, we need but look carefully Into the
cttmpaigps that have heen waged and con
trast the meu and measures that were suc
cessful with the conditions that existed, at
the "time of defeat.
Saying that he had been Informed that
one of those Invited had declined an in
vitation to the dinner because the
speaker s views on certain public ques
tions were opposed to those of Mr. Bryan,
Justice O'Brien said that it was just such
intolerance that had been the greatest
stumbling block to the success .of the
Democratic party.

TACOMA", Wash., Jan. 8. (Special.)
The Democratic State. Central Committee
this afternoon unanimously passed a res
olution indorsing: the candidacy of Will
lam J. Bryan for the Presidency of the
United States. But before this was ac
complished an attempt was made to
postpone such indorsement until the meet
ing; of the state convention in Spokane.
May 18. It might later develop that the
Nebraskan would not be the logical can
didate, depending upon who the Repub
lican National convention , nominated.
Others contended that the various coun
ties of the state should first indicate their
choicp of a Democratic National candi
date . and that such sentiment could be
reflected when the delegates came to the
state convention at Spokane.
Two conventions will be held, the sec
ond some time In August, and . probably
In Tacoma. After the committee Ad
journed Dr. P. 9. Byrne, of Spokane, an
nounced his candidacy for Governor.

Banks to Deposit Money With Gov
ernment to Guarantee Both Notes
- and Deposits Time Is Ripe
tot Needed ' Reform.
WASHINGTON, Jan. ' 8. The sub-com
mittee of the House committee on bank
ing and currency, to which was entrust
ed the framing of a bill to increase the
elasticity' of the currency, reached a con
clusion today and will, report favorably to
the full committee a bill drawn in the
main. by. Chairman Fowler, of the com
mittee. The bill will be introduced by
Fowler and referred to' his committee,
where it will form" the working basis for
the framing of a bill of possibly the same
scope and tenor. . - . .
The bill provides for the complete re-.
tireraent- of all outstanding National
bank bond-secured currency and au
thorises In lieu .thereof a currency based
upon general' assets of the banks,' to. be
worked out in this wav:
The Controller of. the' - Currency will
designate throughout the country certain
redemption cities, so that there shall ' be
a - redemption city within at least - 24
hours' reach of every National bank. The
National banks will indicate to the Con
troller of the Currency to what redemp
tion city they wish . to be joined. The
Controller will then select a . time and
place within each redemption district for
the- organizing of Wiaf district in the fal
lowing manner:
Issue Notes With Guarantee. -'
. Each National bank In that district.
regardless of its capital stock, will be
enimea to one vote, .Representatives of
the 'banks will meet at a time and place
designated and elect a board' of managers
to consist of seven members. The seven
will elect a chairman, who will become
a Deputy Controller of the Currency and
assume control of his redemption dis
trict, except that he shall not have
charge of the enforcement of the criminal
statutes.
Each National bank is authorized to
present to the- 'Secretary of' the Treasury
National banknotes and lawful money in
.lieu of other National bank bond-secured
Outstanding notes. Then, It the bank's
application therefor Is indorsed by the
board of managers of the redemption dis
trict to which, it belongs; the bank, will
receive guaranteed credit notes to the
amount of its -capital stock. These notes
will be subject to a tax of 2 per cent per
annum. Each bank will be required to
deposit as a guarantee fund with the
Treasurer of the United States 6 per cent
of its average deposits for the preceding
12 months and S per cent of the 'credit
notes which it takes out. ' The revenue,
thus ' obtained is to create and support -a
National guarantee fund of $300,000,000 for
the guarantee of both the deposits and
the outstanding banknotes of every Na
tional bank. Eighty per cent of this fund
is to be invested in United States bonds
drawing 2'per cent Interest, while the re
maining 20 per cent is to be deposited in
banks . of the Various -redemption cities
for the purpose rof .redeeming, the guar
anteed . credit, notes of the banks of the
various redemption districts. . .
... Bonds in Guarantee Fund.
When the National guarantee fund
reaches J25.000.000, which would be al
most simultaneous with the birth of the
new law, the Government is required to
return to the banks the Uiiited States
bonds now held as security for Federal
deposits, the object being to enable the
banks to get control of the bonds, so that
the Government can Invest the 80 per
cent of the guarantee fund In 2 per cent
bonds and regain control. In . buying
those bonds the banks holding them shall
be. paid their original purchase price, pro
viding their exact purchase price can be
proven.
It is Fowler's idea, as embodied in the
blll, to have the, new credit notes printed
on a green background in differentiation
from the yellow background of the gold
notes and white background of the silver
certificates.
Needed Reforms In Currency.
Fowler today made the following state
ment regarding the financial situation:
We sre today with regard to our finan
cial and currency practices - Just where we
were in- 3896 with regard to the standard
'of values, and to decide now to make all
kinds of bonds the basis of currency would
be Just as serious and fatal a mistake as
to have adopted silver then as our standard
of value. The time Is ripe, the : circum
stances are auspicious and a careful- inves
tigation of all the facts and conditions
justifies the conclusion that Congress can
and . should legislate so as to bring about ,
these results: .-
First, a uniform banking system.
Second, uniform bank- reserves, consisting
of gold issue or its eaulvalent.
Third, a simple and scientific monetary
system, consisting of only three forms of
currency gold for our bank reserves, bank
credit notes redeemable In gold for the
larger bills, and silver for the smaller bills
and subsidiary coins.
Fourth, a currency automatically adjust
ing Itself to -the . demands of trade, never
xoo great, never too small, but always Just
adequate to our requirements.
Fifth, equal and absolute protection in
all National banks, by placing. In the United
states Treasury a guarantee fund which by
January, 1909, ought to approximate (oOO,
000,000, Sixth, the establishment of certain . rigid
rules and regulation whereby the financial
operations of the Treasury shall be. so con
ducted that the Government' will cease to
be a disturbing -factor . In our trade and
commerce. .

' Many In Rent Strike.
NEW TORK, Jan. 8. The gloom among
the rent-strikers was turned to Joy when
the large number, of evictions threatened
by the landlords seemed to dwindle, ma
terially. It was difficult to get marshals
to handle those that were, issued. They
said they were busy with other things.
' Many landlords, too. settled with their
tenants rather than pay the cost of their
eviction, and many tenants, frightened by
the action of the oourt, agreed to accent
smaller reductions than those first de
manded. Many cases were compromised
in this way. In other cases tenants paid
up -the"' full amount demanded, but these
