Elegance vs. Simplicity.
The contrast between the Demo­
cratic simplicity with which Mr. Bryan
h«u traveled and the elegance of the
Taft accommodations on rail, is as
marked as the contrast between the
size and enthusiasm of the audiences
which have greeted the Democratic
candidate, and those which Mr. Taft
has addressed. While one great New
York newspaper which is supporting
i Mr. Taft and which maintains a press
association service has refused to
have a correspondent with Mr. Bryan,
ample accommodations are afforded
aboard the Taft special for the special
correspondents of all the large papers.
In addition, for the first time in the
history of any campaign, Mr. Taft is
carrying with him three press agents
paid by the national committee for the
purpose of influencing public opinion.

Well as Government Deposits.
The Democratic National Platform
favors guaranteed bank deposits; the
Republican platform is silent on that
subject.
Mr. Bryan heartily cham­
pions the plan; Mr. Taft is strongly
opposed to it.
Mr. Taft and Guaranteed Deposits.
In his speech of acceptance Mr. Taft
puts himself squarely on record as be
ng oppose! to guaranteed deposits.
He says: “ The Democratic platform
recommends a tax upon national
banks and upon such state banks as
may come in, in the nature of en­
forced insurance to raise a guaranty
fund to pay the depositors of any
bank which fails.
The proposal ti

lution In our hanking system, with a
supervision so close as practically to
create a government bank.
I f th«
proposal wore adopted exactly &9 the
Democratic
platform
suggests, It
would bring the whole banking system
of the count.*y down in ruin."
Why seek to confuse the people on
a simple proposition? We are sup­
posed to have Government super­
vision of national banks now Super­
vision does not mean a governmoc*
bank; it simply means that the na­
tional hank inspectors will do Just as
they are expected to do under exist­
ing law—make their examination of
banks thorough and make prompt and
effective correction of any irregulari­
ties discovered. So it will be difficult
to frighten the people by the claim
that guaranteed deposits means tho­
rough supervision of hanks.
That’s
Just exactly what the people want.
It is absurd to say that guaranteed
deposits would “ bring the whole bank­
ing system of the country down to
ruin.”
What does “ guaranteed deposits”
mean? It means that the savings of
the masses shall be secured so that
when men and women deposit their
hard-earned money in hanking insti­
tutions. they need not worry for fear
It will be lost through the reckless­
ness and dishonesty of bank officials.
The Federal Government demands oi
thf-cp banks security for the money
it deposits. As a rule state govern­
ments and county governments and
municipal governments make similar
requirements But now that it is pro­
posed that depositors generally shall
h?ve some such assurance for the
safe keeping of their wealth, we are
told by the Republican candidate foi
the Presidency that the adoption of
such a plan “ would bring the whole
hanking system of the country down
to ruin.”
Oklahoma’s Object Lesson.
Oklahoma has the guaranteed de-
pv.lt plan and the following Associat
cd T ress d’snatch tells of its opera­
tion in the first bank failure since the
law went into effect:
“ Guthrie. Okla.. May 21. 1908.—

fng law, and this is the first time it
has been called into use Under the
operation of the guaranty banking

pcfsltors of an insolvent state hank,

Will the Banks Answer This?
In addition to the arguments al­
ready presented in favor of the guar­
anteed bank, the following is sub­
mitted:
The United States Government re­
quires a deposit of specific security
when it deposits money In a national
bank; the state also requires secur
ity, and the county and city deposits
are secured either by bonds or by the
deposit of specific securities
Now the question arises, if the
United States Government, which can
at any time inspect a bank and find

business is being conducted, requires
security for its deposits, why should

SARGEANT* ON TAFT.
Ha Declared that Judge Taft Re­
manded Workingmen to a Serv­
itude as Degrading as the
Spartans Imposed Upon
Their Helots.
Last week Mr. Frank P. Sargeant
died. In 1893 he was Grand Master
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire­
men when Judge Taft “ reduced rail
road trainmen to machines to do the
bidding of a master." Here are some
extracts from an article written by
Mr. Sargeant about the decision by
Judge Taft that was a grievous
wrong:
“ If a Judge of the United States
court The was discussing Judge Taft’s
decision] may abolish this right of
an employe, he remands him, un
equivocally, to a servitude as degrad
ing as the Spartans imposed upon
their helots, and it is this phase of the
strike which has aroused such in­
tense concern and alarm.
"It will not he expected that I
rhould enter upon a discussion of the
legal points involved; at best I can
only voice the sentiments of a body
of law-abiefng men who have been
trained by their organizations to re
tpect laws and the decisions of courts,
and who find themselves suddenly re­
duced to the condition of peonage by
the decision of a United States Judge.”

•
“ It is asserted that railroads be­
come common carriers, but are un­
able to perform their obligations with­
out men. They must have men, and
It should be stated they must have
engines, fuel, water, steam, tracks,
etc. The locomotives and equipments
can be purchased and become the
property of the road, but they are
useless without men, and those, once
secured, the general manager, speak
ing as If by authority, intimates that
they become fixtures, because, with
out them, as without engines, the ob­
ligations of the railroads cannot be
performed; such is the newfangled
logic relied upon to reduce railroad
trainmen to machines, to do the bid­
ding of masters with authority con­
ferred by a United States Judge. In
at least one notable instance a United
States Judge has shown his utter con
tempt for a sovereign state and the
laws made in conformity with the
constitution, and has sent county offi
cials to prison because they would not
disregard their oaths and obey his
mandate— and it will readily be con
ceded, if such a high-handed outrage
can be perpetrated and the judge re
main unimpeached, that a judge may,
with equal impunity, subject railroad
employes to autocratic indignities.”

“ But It so happens that while men
debate such propositions, embodying
self-evident truths, the court, with an
iron grip, holds freemen in bondage,
and the victims are as powerless as
when, under another exhibition of
rrwer, men were sold at the auction
block.”
