NEW YORK, Nov. Ex-senator
Thomas c, Platt tonight gave out the
following statement:
III Is the plain purpose OF those Re-
publican faetlonists, who, falling In
every EFFORT repeatedly made TO control
the Republican organization, projected
Seth Low into the municipal campaign,
thereby dividing the anti-Tammany
vote, TO force into the public mind the
impression that the responsibility for
this division attaches not TO them, but
10 the Republican Organization, And,
Just as during the,campaign they stop-
ped at no act OF treachery In order to
create dlssension, so now they are hesi-
iating at no falsehood or ealWnny in or
der TO promlte Il and keep Il alive.
THE malicious Misrepresentation OF
these incurable factionists must rot go
unchallenged. No fair minded Repub-
lican who will look back over the events
OF the last six months can fail TO re-
member that the attitude of the Repub-
lican organization up to the very last
moment at which the law permitted a
nominating certificate 10 be fled was
much more than favorable TO a union
with the citizens organization. Fair
minded men will remember that when
Mr.. Quigg assumed the presidency OF
the county committee he made the OFFER
OF union distinctly and in terms. They
will remember that his offer was as dis
tinctly refused by those whom II was
adlRkaaaI n nfhaNF haHs n.
deed, that when tho citizens association
organized, II adopted platform which
was Intended to commit It's members to
the go 1t alone policy
This platform denied the relation OF q
national political party to municipal af-
fairs. 1t challenged the right OF the Re-
publican party to make Republican
nomination. 1t placed upon the doc
trlne of non -partisanship' new inter
probation and one which forbade the
possibility OF cooperation between the
Republican party and the cltizens'
union.
This was done, we must remember.
away back In the spring and before the
average citizen had begun 10 consider
what his political course should be.
Nobody paid any attention at the time.
for nobody supposed II would mean that
the citizens were going deliberately 10
work to defeat themselves or that they
could obtain a candidate who would
stand with them in such suicidal pol
icy.
'They found no fault with the candl-
date whom the citizens union picked
out as the expression OF It's purpose and
ideas. They do not now deny that they
regarded him as practically the sort Of
man he has turned out to be-a vain>
glorious, self-seeker, masquerading as
n Republican, but willing at any uma
to wreck the Republican ship on the
ledge OF his own ambitions"

Question: Should any national bank be
permitted to establlsh branches under Its
simple management?

Question: II so, under what ilmita-
tons, II any?
Answer: II would allow any bank hav-
ing paid up capital OF not less than
Si,000,0O0 TO establish branches In Its own
state, and any bank having a capital OF
$5,000000 or more to establish branches
in any part OF the United States. would
allow notes to be issued only by the par
ent bank, although they might be issued
to, and paid out by the branch banks in
