The revenues were falling off, there waa a deficit promised, and it was es sential that tha revenue should be in creaaed, " - " "The one ee-entlal defect In the com pliance with the promise of tha platform was the failure to reduce woolena. Does that defect so color the action of tha RepublleSB party aa to tnaka it a breach of faith to lead to Its condemnation T I do not think so.

It af fected the counting rooms of the news papera of tha country and invited ' the attention of the newapaper proprietors, who had associated themaelvea together, like other Interesta. for the procuring of- a reduction of the tariff. The fail ure to make a larger reduction ahowed Itself clearly In tha editorial comments In a great number of newspapers, what ever their party predellotlon. "Tha amount of misrenresentation to which the tariff bill In its effect as a downward revision bill waa subjected baa never been exceeded in this coun try, and, it will doubtleas take the ac tual operation of the tariff bill several years to show to the country exactly what the lfglalatlon and It effect are. ayae as Slagley Acts Compared. "The bureau of statistics is authority for the atatement that during the first six . months of the operation of the Payna law which haa Juat ended, the average rate of duty paid on all dutiable Imports wss 31. Of per cent ad valorem. "The average rate of duty paid on all imports for the same alx montna for the four - preceding . years under the Dlngley -. law waa 34.03. This would show that the reduction In the Payna law Is 3.94 per cent of the value of the goods, or that the reduction below the previous tariff rates Is 13 per cent "But that Is not alt Under the Payne law tl.f per cent of the gross im ports for the laat six months have been entered free,, while under the four years preceding for the same six months the free list amounted to 45.40 per cent of the total Importations; so there was not only a reduction of duties on dutia ble imports of about 13 per sent, but also an . enlargement of about the same, percentage of the free list yne Act Brings Jtore Ssareave. "For the production of revenue the Payne law la even more an improvf ment on the Dlngley bill. During the alx months that tha Payna tariff waa In force, from August I to tha night of February ..8, the ' customs receipts amounted to $188,023,851.54. .Under tho Dlngley tariff the semi-annual average was $130,286,841.84. . This is 38 per cent greater than the average under the Dlngley tariff. . ' . ' . s "Of course aa the country Increases tn population the customs receipts in crease, but even considering the popu lation, the Increaae.in the tariff receipts has been marked. " "For the six months that the Payne tariff haa1 been in force the total re ceipts from customs and Internal reve nue have been $332,788,383.08, showing an excess, of receipts over disburse ments of about $8,884,051.17, with no collection aa yet from the corporation tax. For the corresponding period last year the expenditures exceeded the re ceipts by over $40,000,000. - "I therefore venture to repeat that the present customs laws Is the best cus toms law that has aver been passed. , ; .

Savings bank closed its doora on August 13. 1907. It carried an unusually large percentage of small deposits, and Its fall, followed as It , was by the crash of the Title Guar antee & Truat company the following October, led up to the unlamented pe riod of bank holidays and general dis trust known as the panlo of 1907. In a short time Devlin was sppolnted as receiver, and In January, 1908, the con tract with the German-American was signed. . . i i ;,.';- : After that . came a long period of liquidation, la which many of the de positors , accepted , Home telephone bonds for their clalma Some of these have proved a fair Investment, but the Omaha company bonds have not paid Interest and are still at low -ebb. The only pathetic note amid yester day's rejoicing came from holders of the telephone ' bonds, some of whom, misunderstanding the Tact that ' their claims ware settled when they accepted the bonds, brought -the bonds' to the bank and were disappolntsd when ' told that these bonds are no obligation of the Oregon Trust.
