The Canadian banks are mutually organized, form ing an association through which they distribute all losses through bank failures among themselves Under this system no depositor in that country has ever lost a cent tnrougn a Dang laiiure, mere naa never been a run on a bank, and there has been no panic. While Mr. Taft and his supporters would probably claim that this sys tem in Canada is a voluntary one on the part of banks, It Is in reality compulsory, for the government grants certain privileges to banks belonging to the association that it does not grant to those not belong ing. The government discriminates against a bank that will not agree to go Into the association, consequently all or most of them do so, tax them- . . M J 1 1 selves ior a guaranty xunu, pay an losses (which under such a system are negligible) and every depositor in the dominion is absolutely sure of every cent of his money. , Yet Mr. Taft and his supporters say that this system In this country would be "ruinous," that It Is a vagary" and so on. A party In Canada that would propose to abol ish this policy and practice would go down under overwhelming defeat, on this Issue alone.

To th Editor or ine journal Mr. Beverldge think Mr. Bryan lacks experience as a legis lator and Is unfitted for president be cause or tnat.

Yt he has done Irly wel in that responsible posl- It was one of the stock objections to Lincoln in I860, that he lacked ex perience. He had no training, they said, that itted hlra to bo president.

The Journal In Th Journal, Sep tember 80,. I saw a short article on the soul's immortality, by one Father Sherman, which I wish to criticise. In order to establish & Scriptural doctrine of so great Importance it Is necessary to refer -to the- Scripture to prove the proposition I notlco. in his article. Not one ' has he referred to the Scripture to 'prove his position. I wiah th readers of The Journal to iook up tne ronowing scripture; at the same time abandon all previous theology and take only the Scripture for their guide.

It is wrong, It is wicked, to let theso gulfs of silence ODen between nnrnnia and children. Where shall the young poople go with their troubles and burdens? To the too busy father who hns never shown any comprehension of his children? To the over-burdened mother whom father never trusts to share his thoughts? No, they will go to some ntranirer who do not possess the gift of silence. Some body who has time to listen, who shows signs of a human understanding, who Is wllllnar to a-lve as well aa tn tv confidences. And when it is too lnte whan th mother sorrows over the wrong step that the daue-hter took because sh list ened to a stranger's counsel, when tho father grieves over the boy's mistake which his Judgment mle-ht h,n fled, they may comfort themselves with the sorrv thoutrht that it i k... the natural result from the determined silence and unsympathetic reticence with which they surrounded themselves and which made the atmosphere of th homo too heavy and oppressive for th growth of tender COnfidenrea old and young.
