FOR DEPOSITORS
People Caught in Title Guaran
tee Failure Clamor for
Protection.
WANT NEW STATE LAW
Propose Measure That "Will Prevent
Ixss of Creditors' Money in the
Event of the Bank Clos
ing Its Doors.
That depositors in banks should never
lose their money when banks fall is the
conviction of the depositors In the Title
Guarantee & Trust Company, and they
favor a law that will secure creditors
against loss evert in the event of failures
ty banks. A resolution calling: for the
passage of such a law by the next legis
lature was unanimously adopted at a
largely attended meeting of the De
positors' Association of- the defunct bank
theld yesterday afternoon. The resolu
tion, .which was introduced by J- O. B.
Scoboy. briefly outlines a plan whereby
the money of depositors will be safe,
under all circumstances.
In discussing his proposed banking
law, Mr. Scobey said:
"My Idea about this Is that every bank
shall be required to pay a certain per
centum upon either Its capital stock or
the amount of its deposits into a fund
which shall be held in reserve in the
state treasury as a guarantee or trust
fund to pay the debts of banks that fall.
There shall be sufficient in this fund to
pay depositors in closed banks and at
once.
'All banks should contribute to this
fund and then in case of failure, this
money shall be used ro liquidate. De
positors In banks can be made secure.
This proposed law is Just and can be
carried out. It will, no doubt, be opposed
by the banking interests, the same in
terests we have to thank for there be
ing no banking law in this state at the
present time. I shall follow this up and
shall work for its passage."
Text of Kcsolution.
The resolution presented-and adopted
follows:
Whereat. It Is a well-known and estab
lished fact that the business of all banks
In very larg-fly conducted on the money of
the rtPDosiLors therein: and
Whereas. In case of the failure of any
hank the depositor in never, but should be.
absolutely secured and bis account paid In
lull without delay; and
Whereas, The laws of the State of Oregon
are wholly Inadequate to prevent serloui
logs arm-ng depositors In case of bajik fail
ures; therefore b it
Resolved. That the members of this as- ;
sociatlon favor a state law reauirint banks
doing business under the laws of this state
to provide a depositors' guaranty fund, to
be deposited as a. trust fund, especially se
cured, with 'he State Treasurer, and to at
once become available to pay the depositors
of any suspended bank In full.
Resolved. That In the ensuing prrmary
eieetionthe support of the members of this
association should be given only to those
candidates for the legislature who will
pledge themselves to support by their ef
forts and their vote a bill for the enact
ment of such a law by the next Legislature
of this state.
Resolved, That we favor a Federal law of
like character to secure depositors In Na
tional banks and that candidates for Con
gress from this state should be asked to
make a similar pledge, and we call upon
the people of the State of Oregon to Insist
on such a pledge from every Congressional
aspirant.
Bouquet for District Attorney.
The depositors realized that it was
largely through the efforts of District
Attorney Manning that the agreement
executed by W. M. Ladd, agreeing to
pay all claims against the defunct bank
. in full, was secured, and a resolution of
thanks to Mr. Manning, Introduced by
the executive committee, was unani
mously passed. It was as follows:
Whereas. It appears to the members of
this association that it was largely through
the efforts of Hon. John Manning. District
Attorney for Multnomah County, that the
depositors of the defunct Title Guarantee &
Trust Company Bank have been secured so
that they will receive their deposits in full,
with Interest thereon, and that without his
earnest and efficient co-oDeratlon surh re
sult could not have been accomplished; and.
Whereon, This Is the first Instance In the
history of suspended banks In this City
of Portland that a result of this character
has been accomplished, and depositors fully
secured; therefore, be It
Resolved. That the thanks of thin asso
ciation of depositors of the late Title Guar
antee A Trust Comsany Bank Is due and
are hereby tendered to Mr. Manning in
grateful recognition of his services In this
matter.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to Mr. Manning by the secretary of
this association.
Depositors Thank Mr. Ladd.
A unanimous vote of thanks was ten
dered W. M. Iadd for his action in se
curing the depositors against loss.
The report of the executive committee
of the Depositors Association, and sub
mitted by the following members: J. O.
B. Scobey, S. J. Barber, N. Solomon rind
C E. Moulton, was received by the as
sociation. W. P. Swope, the other mem
ber of the executive committee, was out
of the city yesterday. This report re
viewed briefly the work of the executive
committee since the first object of the
association, the removal of Receiver Hill,
was undertaken. It showed the progress
of the negotiations with W. M. Ladd,
looking toward his underwriting the ac
counts of the depositors, and the suc
cessful accomplishment of that purpose.
The report continues:
The object which we had In view has been
accomplished, and Mr. Ladd has guaranteed
to every depositor the full amount of the
deposit which he had In the bank at the
time it closed, together with Interest there
on at the rate of 4 per cent ner annutn.
payable annually, from the date of ntje
II rat receivership, which was November 0.
1907. Mr. Ladd entered Into a contract and
agreement to cover his guarantee, which
agreement was entirely satisfactory to your
committee, ana we believe should be to every
member of this association.
Change In Receivers. .
This agreement nan been approved by
the court, and in accordance with the terms
thereof R. S. Howard. Jr.. has been ap
pointed receiver at the susseatlon of Mr.
J ,add In place of TC. C. Mears, and Is now in
charge of the assets of the bank, pursuant
to said agreement.
We desire and suggest to every depositor
mm n mouio ki onco present nl bank
book or certificate of deposit to the rriv
Mr. Howard, add have his account balanced
and his claim approved. . The date within
which this may be done, accord In to the
order of the court, expires on the 16th day
or starcn. iwa.
In whatever your committee has accom
plished along the lines for which it was
created. It has had the earnest and valued
support and assistance of Hon. John Man
ning. District Attorney for Multnomah
County. Tour committee feels that it is
under very many obligations to him, and
t hat he Is entitled to the thanks of this
dfsorlatlon for the assistance which he has
rendered In bringing about the result which
we consider of very great value to every
depositor.
Keep Organization Alive.
It was the opinion of the depositors
sk
GUARDS
present that the association should be
kept alive In order to meet any need for
Its services that might arise in future.
While It was recognized that, without
doubt, all the work that may be expected
from the organization has already been
accomplished, still, it was deemed best
to keep the association alive lest any
occasion should arise for it to act.
It was concluded also, not to discharge
the executive committee but to maintain
it as the head of the organization, so
that this committee may do whatever is
necessary for the interests of the de
positors and may take action when It is
advisable without the need for calling
the entire association together.-
A vote of thanks was given the ex
ecutive committee for its efforts in
bringing about the -success of the de
positors' purposes, namely, the discharge
of Receiver Hill and the securing of the
underwriting of the -depositors' accounts
by W. M. Ladd.

IS IMPOSSIBLE
Dr. Brougher Declares Moral
, Man Incomplete With
out Christianity.
IS NO MIDDLE GROUND
Says Between Man's Good and Eil
Natures There Is . an Irre
pressible and Never-Ending
Conflict.
The Sermon on "The Moral Man and
the Hypocrite." which Dr. J. Whit
comb Brougher preached at McMinn
vllle last Sunday night, was delivered
from the pulpit of the "White Temple
last night to a large audience. Dr.
Brougher believes that neutrality In
religion is impossible, and said that
public men and others who believe and
practice the moral teachings of Christ
should affiliate themselves with some
Christian body, and thereby lend their
Influence toward the uplift of young
men and women who look to them as
examples. During Dr. Brougher's two
weeks' evangelistic services at the Mc
Minnvllle College, ending last Friday
night, good results were noted, and he
says that of 200 students enrolled,"
only seven are not professing Chris
tians. "At the closing meeting last
Friday nlht," said Dr. Brougher, "93
took their stand."
At last night's meeting several hun
dred rose to their feet, when the call
was made for those who wished to
unite with some local church to stand.
More than 100 of these attended the
after-meeting.
Dr. Brougher said In part:
Mfin'9 Dual Nature.
Thare are two people In every one of us.
In the g-reat struggle between the good and
the evil, sometimes the good will have
the upper hand and -sometimes the evlL
"While this Is true It is nevertheless a fact
that Jesus Christ calls for his followers
to be out and out for him. He does not
recognise a neutral position. In this coun
try we do not have to deal for the most
part with Infidels, agnostics or heathen, but
rather with that large and rrowlng class
of moral people who refuse to Identify them
selves publicly with the cause of Christ.
They give their money for the support of
the Gospel. They believe Christianity to be
a very rood thing. They 1 believe that a
church should exist In every community
large enough to support It. They are frendly
disposed toward Jesus Christ, but they want
also to keen 'on friendly terms with the
devil. They can talk like a saint when It
means money in their pockets and they
can talk like the devil when it la to their
advantage to do so.
Now Jesus Christ calls for positive friends
and positive enemies. He declares InVthe
3l!th chapter of Matthew that there are only
two spiritual kingdoms In this world
the kingdom of the right and the kingdom
of the wrong. One Is the kingdom of God
ana tne other is the kingdom of Satan.
These two kingdoms are In a deadly combat
for the complete conquest of the world.
There Is no neutrality possible between
them. Jesus Christ is seeking: to save the
world. Satan Is seeking to destroy it. The
laws of God's kingdom are diametrically op
posed ny the laws of the kingdom of Satan.
A man must take his stand on one side or
the other. He canont escape the conflict.
The principle of right and vrone Is stamped
Indelllbly on the heart of every man. The
battle of right and wrong Is being fought
In every man's soul. It Is the battle of the
Individual with himself. It is the conflict
between the higher and lower natures for
supremacy. Man's greatest enemy is hla
own sinful nature.
Must Make Positive Stand.
On the one hand can be seen a black flag
with letters of fire on It. "The world for
Satan"! On the other hand la unfurled
the white banner of the cross and on it In
letters of blood. "The world for Christ" I
Beneath one or the other of these two ban
"hers every man must take his stand. Jesus
Christ says : "He that Is not with me is
against me." Sometimes the moral man
objects to being placed on the side of the
devil and his forces. I do not lace him
there. Jesus Christ does. And yet the
moral man knows that he Is unwilling to
openly acknowledge his allegiance to Jesus
Christ and live for Him. Frequently he com
plains that there are too many hypocrites
In the church. He declares that he is as
good as the churchmembers. I ask him
which one. He does not reply by picking
ont some saintly, godly character who is
a genuine Christian, but he will Dick out
some fellow who is more or less of a hypo
crite. I am willing to admit that the moral man
Is as good as the hypocrite, but if he is no
better that -4s not saying very much for
htm. The hypocrite Is a man who tstands
on the side of Christ and indulges in the
things of. the world. The moral man Is
the fellow who stands on the side of the
world and accepts all that Christianity has
done for him through a Christian home and
Christian Institutions and a Christian land
and then refuses to acknowledge Jesus
Christ as the author of his blessings. I
make the assertion wtthout fear of contra
diction that the moral man who refuses to
acknowledge Jesus Christ as his Savior does
more to keep young men and young women
out of the kingdom of God than all 'the
drunkards and outcasts in the city. Young
men and women are influenced by the moral
man and follow his example. The drunk
ard and the outcast have little influence over
young people to lead them into that sort
of life. Every moral man in the city ought
to be an open acknowledged follower of
Jesus Christ. He ought to give the wholp
strength of his influence to the kingdom or
God and the righteousness for which it
stands. There is no neutrality in a man's
influence. : He is either for or against Jesus
Christ.
Describes Respectable Sinner.
Again we need to remember that all sin.
whether it be in the disposition or overt
act is condemned in the sight of God. In
God's alght there is not so much difference
between sinners as we would like to think
there is. Sin Is sin In God's sight whether it
dwells In a palace or a hut; whether it is
In the heart of a society young woman or
a shop girl; whether It Is In great or small,
high or low. sin is sin and God, Is no re
specter of persona Tou may be respectable
You may stand well in the eyes of the
community. You may have a clean face and
wear fine clothes and yet be as great a
sinner In God's sight as the poorest wretch
whs lies In the gutter with swollen face,
bleared eyes and red nose. You are a re
spectable sinner. He is a degraded sinner.
Again secret sins are just as much con
demned in God's sight as public ones. God
looks on the heart, not on the outward ap
pearance. There are a great many who
would accept Jesus Christ as their Savior
and" acknowledge him as their Lord if ha
would consent to their making a compro
mise with sin. But Jesus Christ will not
accept the crown if Satan is to retain the
scepter. He must be King over all. He
gives you your choice. You are a free
moral agent but you must choose one or
the other. You cannot serve both Christ
and Satan. The line Is drawn and no one
who comes face to face with Christ can
escape making a choice. He must either
accept or reject him. for Christ has declared
and there Is no receedlng from the position.
"He that is not with me is against me."
REPLACE EVIL WITH GOOD
Good Works Are as Necessary as
Repentance. .
"Constructive Christianity" was the
subject of the sermon by Rev. H. C.
Shaffer yesterday morning at the United
Brethren Church, East Morrison street.
The sermon was an appeal for something:
beyond work of destructive character for
& rnnTTAtft rm?tr notice. DroereBSive
Christianity. .Rev. Shaffer said in part:
In ''the description of the sinner in Gala
tlans v-19, a picture Is drawn that is dark
enough to make us pause and examine It.
After enumerating the sins of which we
have been guilty, the writer says that thej
that do such things shall not inherit the
kingdom of God. With this Judgment all
healthy minds agree. Sin must be punished.
To become a Christian one must forsake
the sins which made him a sinner. He must
cease to do evil. But I ask you the Ques
tion today:' Is it enough to cease to do evil?
And I answer, no. "Iearn to do well" is
as positive a command. "Be not drunk with
wine" Is a good commandment, but "Be
filled with the spirit" Is far better.
The old man who has weeded out the
sine of his life by true repentance has only
half his task completed. He must now
plant the good. seed, and care for it as It
grows and comes to fruition. Paul not only
repudiated idols: he fttught the true God.
Jesus not only cleansed the temple; he made
every man who repented a temple of God.
It Is not enough to eradicate hate: love
must be developed. Contending for the
faith once delivered to the saints has iti
place, but planting the Gospel In the regions
tieyond is the Imperative duty of the hour.
Missionary work among otner peoples is
largely constructive. The missionaries are
bold to denounce sin. but they found edu
cational institutions, medical staffs are
maintained, farming Is taught in some
places, industrial institutions are great fac
tors. It Is seemingly Just dawning upon
large numbers of good peole that Jesus came
to establish his kingdom in tne e&nn.
LAST WEEK OF THAW TRIAL
Jerome Assumes Air of Mystery Re
garding Rebuttal Testimony.
NEW YORK, Jan, "26. The Thaw
trial tomorrow will enter upon Its
fourth and probably its last week.
The defense has another day of evi
dence to offer, and the state should
have its rebuttal evidence before the
Jury by Thursday night. District At
torney Jerome has assumed sometning
of an air of mystery as to the scope
of the testimony he will offer In re
buttal of the showing of Insanity made
by the defense, but- it is said he will
make an effort to bring up In court
some of the secret records of the com
mission lu lunacy, which inquired into
Thaw's condition last March, and
which pronounced him capable of in
telligently advising with his counsel.
The records of the commission were
sealed by order of Justice Fitzgerald,
who appointed the board solely for
the purpose of advising the court as
to Thaw's mental condition, and this
fact may prove a stumbling block to
the District Attorney's plans.
The defense will offer tomorrow the
three physicians and the trained nurse
who arrived on the steamer Adrlatio
Saturday morning to testify as to the
alleged irrational outbreaks by Thaw
in Europe.
COOL HEADS SAVE LIVES
Panic Follows Shout of Fire In Des
Moines Theater.
DES MOINES, la., Jan. 26. That there
were a number of cool heads in the
Grand Onera-House probably saved many
lives tonight.
The Evans Cafe, across the alley from
the playhouse, was burning, and smoke
issued through an open window in the
opera-house. Some one yelled "Fire,
and the Inevitable panic followed. D. E.
Hraddlsh jummed to the stage and yei.r-d
'Keep your seats; no fire in this house.''
This did not stop the people. The most
conservative kept their heads, but a
general rush followed. Much crowding
and pushing was done In the gallery and
balcony, and a woman fainted.
The play was J'The Two Orphans," and
about 1200 people were in the theater.

NEW ORLBAN9. L., Jan. 26. Daring
thieves tonight held up and robbed a
United States mail wagon loaded with
incoming mall which had just- arrived
from Cincinnati and other Northern
points, over the Queen & Crescent route.
The thieves were reported to have se
cured about $5000, but the postoffice au
thorities refused to make any statement
about the robbery. The wagon, which was
heavily screened, and on which rode a
driver and his helper, was attacked near
some freight cars in the downtown sec
tion of the city. The driver and railway
mall clerk, neither of whom was hurt
were held by the police on suspicion. At
least two out of 11 mall sacks were

IDLENESS i CRIME
Men Without Work Have Right!
to Stay in the City.
CANNOT BE DRIVEN AWAY
Secretary Stone, of Y. M. C. A., Says
Police Have No Authority to Drive
Unemployed Out of Portland
and Offers to Aid Them.
'"The police have no right to compel
any man to leave this city, or any other
city, simply because he Is out of work
and without money, said H. W. Stone,
general secretary of tlrie Portland T. M.
C. A., at the men's meeting ' yesterday
afternoon. "If any of you men have no
work, Btay right here In town, and if the
Portland police try to run you out, you
see me and I will see that you don't have
to go. We must provide' work for the
men of Portland, and so long as the
streets are in the present dilapidated con
dition there is no need for so many men
being out of work.
"If there Is anything that Is a disgrace
to our American civilization1 it is the
chasing of a man out of town because he
Is out of work. The men In this city have
a right to be here, even If they haven't
Jobs. Each city must face its own prob
lems. We must fiito tVo problem of the
unemployed until Spring opens.
I have just returned from Seattle, and
I tell you men, there are more Jobs right
here in Portland than In any other city
on the Pacific Coast, Tet we have many
unemployed. The man who holds his
job the longest, and the one who finds
employment when others have none is
the man who Is willing to work. I saw
30 men at work at the City Park last
week who were Just putting in time.
They had been given the work by tha city
for four hours, for which they were paid
60 cents. If there had been one real good
worker In the crowd, he would probably
have been scoffed, at by the others.
I knew of a young man who had to
go to work shoveling gravel. He shoveled
so much that the other fellows com
plained at it Men of his stamp are the
kind of men we need; men who aren't
afraid of good, healthy, honest labor."
The address of the afternoon was de
livered by M. Monroe, of Fort Collins,
Colo. Before entering upon his address
he referred to a $46,000 building which
will be ready for occupancy by the Fort
Collins Y. M. C. A, in three or four
months.
The text for the address was Proverbs
lv:7-9, "Wisdom Is the principal thing.
therefore get wisdom." Mr. Monroe de
fined wisdom as that application of
knowledge which brings a desired results.
He said the world is turning to the
teachings of Christ for the solution of
its great economic problems.
The music of the afternoon was
rendered by the Second Baptist Quartet.

WHY S'OT TREAT
with reputable specialists of known
worth and skill, rather than waste
your time with would-be specialists of
no skill or ability.
Is it not better to treat with a med
ical Institute composed of men scien
tifically trained to cure and who are
men of standing and ability than to
treat with self-styled, so-called spe
cialists of limited experience, whose
vaunted cures are no cures at all?
Do -not be fooled into paying a big
fee for surgical procedure that does
not cure. We are the leading special
ists in Portland and our cures are
thorough and permanent. Talk with
us about your ailment and a personal
