ANOTHER column of the Cresset's
space was consumed last week In an
attempt To prove that the government
does not loan money to the national
banks at per cent. As usual in such
cases. the Cresset fell down in Its own
statements. Three propositions were
admitted very clearly: First, that the
national banks issue, use and draw in.
terest on money redeemable by the
United States; second, that the nation
al banks draw interest on the face val
ne of the bonds deposited in the United
States treasury; third, that the banks
pay per cent and no more ,on the aver
age amount of bank notes in circula-
ton. When these propositions are ad-
mltted our proposition is endorsed, i. e
that the government loans as much
money to each national bank as tie
said bank issues In paper currency and
loans to the people.

strong resolutions condemn
ing Senator Lewelling for

only one defender in the

AT several mass meetings
held by PopuIists in various
parts of the state we observe
that representatives and SEN
ators are complaining that
Populist papers do not give
the legislature sufficient
praise for the good laws en-
acted. We do not believe
that there is any ground for
complaint from this source.
Every Populist paper which
comes to our exchange table
has repeatedly commended
the members of the legislature
in every instance where they
acted i'll harmony with the
pla tform on which they we're
elected and in good faith
with their campaign pledges.
We say that when the legis-
lature passed the stockyards
measure, the text book bill,
the fee and salaries bill, they
did good work and are GER
tainly entitled to great praise.
But when the same legisla,
ture failed to pass a maxi
mum freight bill, a usury bill,
and a bill to enforce the tax.

from the pen of Harry o. Landers, the
renowned newspaper architect.
Sixty-four pages are devoted to topics
of lively popular interest and there is
not dull paragraph in the magazine.
The editor, Frederick Upham Adams,
presents the opening chapters of q
sketch which will add much to his fame

plains that she has been selected for
this Important and patriotic task by a
commission consisting of John d.

IT is predicted that the U. S. SUI

dictiOns come true land we hope they
VIII it seems TO us that the majority OF
the court will be going back on the ia
nous income tax decision. If an If
herltance tax law providing for the
taxation of ell inheritances over and
above $4,000 is constitutional, it will
be difficult for the average American
citizen TO understand why an income
tax law. providing for the taxation oil
annual incomes exceeding $1,000. is no,
also constitutional. As a matter of
fact the same principle is involved IL
both instances. If there is any differ
ence graduated income tax is more

The Dingley bill decreases
the price of such absolute
necessities to the masses as
diamonds and steam yachts,
but the price of such useless
luxuries as sugar, tea, cotton
and wooden goods is greatly
increased. But that is i'm
