MEMPHIS. TKSS., August l6, 1916.
An exceedingly dull day in banking
circles, Beyond the regular routine of
local checking and depositiHg there was
nothing doing. Currency is in abundant
supply, with money easy. Good COM
mercial paper meets with ready favor at
the banks at SOIL = cent. 2 annumi
street rates, on Short loans, rule at l4@
p p cent. 2 month. Exchange re-
mains quiet and steady, with the supply
equal to the demand, as follows. Buying
on New York at par and selling at 3c
premium; on New Orleans, buying at 4c
discount and selling at par. Brokers
are paying llO4 for gold, With little offer
ing. Scripts and stocks of every de-
scription remain dull and nominally I'M
changed,

true that Il h whispered in non-ooicial

Judgment Day.

Grantism has come to judgment at last.
This infamous abuse of the public service for
personal and partisan gain has borne its in
evitable fruits. The stubborn partisan may
excuse and protest as he will In every State
there are thousands Of voters whose minds
are made up this day, beyond possibility Of
change, to redeem the honor of the American
Republic by such votes hereafter that neither
Grant nor any of his favorites, nor any man
who has impudently called our civil service
ssthe best the world ever saw" nor any de.
fender and spologist for this most scandalous
Administration, shall ever again be able to
claim that he has the American people behind
him.
Democracy may be dangerous, true; but it
is not filthy with brides and stealings. Against
disoyalty or reputation the people can pro-
tect themselves in many ways; against dis
honor they can protect themselves only by
trampling under foot every man who has par
ticipated in or excused that infamous system
of public service called Grantism. If the Re-
publican party can not rid itself absolutely of
this faint and shame, no Republican cam
didate will have q better chance of election

There is candidate who, though stanch
Republican, has been foe of thieves. In q
rotten administration he has been Abdiel,
faithful found among the faithless. Such q
man, because his fight against corruption has
been unsparing, and known to all men, the
Republican party can still elect. But it can
not elect any man whose very nomination is
not conclusive proof that the Republican
party has declared war against those whose
conduct has disgraced the nation.-N. r.

POLITICAL TALK.

The Appropriation bill has been fixed, and,
in consequence, everything is serene at the
State House, and the members of the Legis-
lature are happy in the possession OF their
mileage and per diem.
THE SENATE
met at II o'clock, and Immediately went into
executive session.
After the executive session, which contin-
ued until about 2 o'clock, the Senate ad-
journed until to-day.
During the executive session number OF
appointments of tax collectors and other
small officers in the parishes were confirmed.
There was considerable excitement at the
State House among those policemen who
have for the past thirty or forty days been
acting as sergeants-at-arms.
On Monday the Senate appropriated $110O
to pay additional sergeants-at-9rms, and the
police considered they were the additional
sergeants-at-arms meant, but it transpired
yesterday that there were other additional
sergeants-at-arms, and their claims on this
S11OO were considered first aud paid, or were
put down to be paid ahead of all others,
clerks included, and, in consequence, the po-
lice were indignant, and detachments fol-
lowed Hugh j. Campbell. Chief Sergeant-at-
Arms, from one end of the building to the
other.
For some reason they look to Campbell for
their money, and there were threats that if
the money was not forthcoming, somebody
would get licked" and it is probable that
these threats will be carried out to-day.
THE REPUBLICAN STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE

Of Peru-these, all these, were the results Of
the contest. Another Was the necessity Of
exploring the county acquired, which called
for the building of railroads, and then fol-

He then described, in wealth Of words,
the bounteous gifts bestowed upon the Mis-
sissippi Valley and the future fruits to Jesuit
from the improvement of this garden. In
keeping with this question, he referred to the
fact that populations travelled on lines Of lati-
tude, and that our population would probably
be most cosmopolitan. But . Welcome should
be extended to all Of the Caucasian race who
visit our shores.
BE then spoke Of the services of the veterans
and said there was one thing he desired to
say right here in justice to them, and that was
when they came back from that war. they
came back with empty hands, without .

bands grave and no orphan despoiled Of il
property. He said that one reared In the
Valley Of the Mississippi with pardonable
youthful ambitions had right to refer to the
hopes dawing upon him in after life for the
rearing of this wealthy empire. He felt that
he saw before our people an era Of great pros.
perity, and he hailed the approaching dawn
with delight.
Turning to the veterans, he addressed
them, saying that the time was fast approach
ing when the few gathered there together

Of time He knew that it would not be dif1-
cult for them to again, in memory, sit around
the camp fires, again hear the wild shout Of
battle, and mourn again the lost ones Who
fell with their eyes fixed upon the Gag Of their
country; but he could not help paying moro
than passing tribute to those lying on tho
hills OF Mexico, left behind. May they rest
IN peace. and enjoy beyond the murmuring
river bounding our intelligence al that
the best of us can desire or hope for"
