TAFT'S ELECTION WILL
FORCE HIS
Prominent Umatilla Capitalist and Bank President De
. clares He CanNo Longer Handle People's Moneys
If Guaranty Plank Is Defeated.
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
Pendleton, Or.; Nov. 3. EL I Smith,
one of Umatilla county's most prom
lnent farmers and capitalist,- president
of two banks in the county, and a
heavy stockholder in several others,
declared today that If the people fall
to lnclorse Mr. Bryan's position on the
guaranty of bank deposits he will Im
mediately retire " from the banking
business.
Mr.. Smith's statement was made at
the Republican headquarters just af
ter the pioneer farmer had delivered
one of the strongest democratic talks
of the present campaign to his nephew,
Ernest Kuppe, secretary of the Taft &
Sherman club, and several other voters
who happened to be present.
"For years,'' declared Mr. Smith, "the
Democratic and the Republican parties
have differed widely .on the tariff
question, but today, after reading and
carefully studying both platforms I see
absolutely no difference in their evi
dent intent. Can you tell me where
they differ T"
- Ill hearers could not.
"I say to you young fellows to take
both platforms home with you tonight,
and read them carefully. Then vote for
the candidate who stands upon a plat
form which represents the best inter
ests of the Pacific coast.
"I voted for Roosevelt four years ago
because I believed he represented the
hbest interestf of this country. Tomor

J Bryan for the. same reason.
Bepnblloan Misdeed.
"No laboring man in this west can
afford to vote the Republican ticket.
The Republicans have declared not only
for the admission of the Japanese to
this country, but they want them ad
mitted to cltlsenship. They have forced
tne state scnoois to admit Japanese into
school along with our own children.
They are encouraging their coming into
this country to compete with the whtta
labor of this coast?
"Is that to 4he interests of the Pa
cific coast?

unequivocally for excluding of Japanese
and all Asiatic labor. It declares for

Petition for Release of

A petition for the pardon of James

years at McNeil's island for' passing
raised United States notes, has been re
celved by United States District At
torney McCourt Morgan was arrest
ed at Pendleton and In a confession told
of the crooks' school In New Tork
which his. confederate had attended. In
addition to the prison sentence Morgan
was 'fined $250 by Judge Wolverton in
the federal court here more than
year ago. The petition requests 1 that
the fine be remitted.
"Kid" Morgan was 21 year old when
arrested and lived In Pooatello, Idaho.
The petition is signed- by- his father,

It" was nereed by- the government of
flciais, owing to the, fact that Morgan
had confessed, that he should be trained
as an architect while serving time, as
he had displayod considerable ability in
that direction.
Morgan's confession Implicated Jack
Mclntyre as the man who had raised the
tl bills to the denomination of $10. The
job was one of the cleverest that had
ever been shown to tne government
officials In 'Portland. The work was
done by hand and when complete the

art of raising bills at a school in New

teachers were experts and could turn
a $1 bill Into a $10 affair almost in
