WO WRONGS do not make
right. An odious wrong
was perpetrated when the
legislature of Kentucky. un-
der the influence of unscrupulous par
tisanship. was induced to enact the
jug-handled Goebel law regulating
elections and election contests That
law put into the hands of the DEM
ocratic party complete control of cleo
tions. yet Taylor, the Republican can
didate for governor. was returned by
the Goebel commissioners as elected
and revolutionary appeal was after
ward taken to a manufactured parti-
san majority in the legislature to un-
seat him and to seat the man whose
own appointees on the state board Of
election commissioners had said was
not elected.
But this wrong did not warrant Gov
ernor Taylor in perpetrating another
great wrong by using the militia Of
Kentucky to prevent the coordinate
legislative branch from holding its
regular proceedings in the customary
place; nor did it Justify him in as
suming the existence of condition of
insurrection and in Dasing upon that
assumption an adjournment of the
legislature to reconvene in a different
place. In this he acted injudciously
and upon unwise advice. Kentucky's
Republican senator DR.. Deboe, stated
the common sense ot the matter ac-
curately when he telegraphed Cover
nor Taylor from Washington: The
unanimous sentiment here is that you
are wrong in preventing the Legislature
from meeting. and that you ought to
submit the disputed questions to the
civil courts. Federal assistance can
not be given on your requisitiOn as
long as the legislature is in session or
can be convened. There is no doubt
that 1t can be convened if you will
permit. The Democrats intend that II
any violence occurs you shall he the
aggressor. You will by forcible re-
sistance ALLEVIATE all who formerly SYM
pathzcd with your case"
In deciding to recede from this mis-
taken position the governor has pur.
sued the manly and just course. The
legislature may be sct up against him
ana he may. therefore, lose in the i'm.
mediate outcome: but that will not b,
his fault. He can go and the Re,
publican party behind him car
q" before the people in theil
fnal appeal without sacrifice OF
their self-respect and with claim I,
public consideration which sooner OF
later will command respectful atten
'ion. 1t is mot credible of the major
ity of the people of Kentucky that the,
will permanently consent to be rule,
by revolutionists.

TO police the canal; and a guarantee
that warships of bclligerents, while
permitted to use the canal in time of
war, should not remain in 1t for more
than a reasonable time.
II is held by some that control by
the United states of such a canal
should be absolute: in other words.
that we should have the right not only
to fortify the approaches and keep out
an enemy's warships in case of war.
but also that we should have the right
at our discretion to impose upon the
commercial vessels of other nations
tonnage tolls higher than those i'm
posed upon our own shipping. If the
United States pays for the canal 1t
would seem that 1t ought to have the
same right to accord special privi-
leges to its own commerce that 1t
would have IL the canal. instead of
being located in Nicaragua or Panama,
were located in Illinois or Delaware.
Whether it would be policy to exercise
this right Is another question.
The matter of the fertilization of
the canal is not. in our Judgment. so
important. The best way to fortify a
canal is to have a navy sufficiently
good and sufficiently large TO prevent
any hostile ship from getting any
where near 1t. There Is no power in
this hemisphere. If we except England.
which is likely ever to cause alarm in
this respect: and the very fact of the
neutralizat tior of the canal in time of
war would prevent n superior naval
force from seiZing and holding the
canal against our own ships. The. con-
vention as signed by the secretary of
state will undoubtedly be carefully and
fully considered by the senate prior
to ratification. and the public can rest
assured that no loopholes will be left
open to danger If in its rrescn. form

l. Governor Roosevelt has removed
his name from the list Of those
which have been considered in connec-
ton with the next vice e-presidency. He
appreciates the good will which is back
of the publics mention of him in this
connection but does not seem to be
anxious to accommodate the politicians
in New York state who desire to have
at Albany n more pliabe governor.
Coupled with the information of Col
Onel Roosevelts final decision not to
accept q place on the national ticket
at this time is the characteristic an
nouncement that he intends to be n
candidate for denomination and re-
election as governor and expects to
secure these honors.
Those who have had some acquaint-
ance with Theodore Roosevelt have
been expecting this. He is not the
man to be jockeyed out of the execu-
tive mansion at Albany while meas
ures of public value ir which his
warm interest is enlisted remain un-

The banks are not the creators of
wealth; the governmt mt is not the crca-
tor of wealth. The people, the soil, the
air, the mines, the looms-thesc are the
creators of wealth. The banks do not
even own the wealth they hold. They do
not own themselves. The stockholders
own them partly, but the depositors
own them under the accommodating de-
cisions more largely even than the
stockholders. So the demagogues' state
ment that the banks own the country
Is merely statement that the country
owns itself. The farmer. laborer, mer-
chant, manufacturer. and business man
are the real bankers of the Republic.
They put their money in banks, because
1t is safer there. because it is convent
ent, and for the multitude of reasons
which, together, make up what men call
common sense. If left there long those
deposits usually draw interest. Those
depc sits must be loaned out again to pay
that interest, to pay dividends. to pay
expenses. OF these and all the operations
Of the banks, the banker is only the SER

banker is the depositor and stockholder
tho real banker is the American peo-
pie. The nominal banker, from press

than the telephone girl at the exchanges
! throughout the country, with the central
exchange here in New York; the banking
methods and devices are nothing more
| than the wires and transmi,ters and re-
ceivers; the depositors are the subscrib-
| crs to the system, to serve whom 1t Is
the business of the whole machinery OF

changes: but those who do the talking

Interdependenre Of
Business Interests

From a Speech Delivered Last Evening
by Senator Beveridge Before the New
York Bankers Association.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-02-07


IT, then, the banker is merely the SER
want of business, If he Is merely an
agent of the American people. 1t is i'm
possible that he should want to injure
the people or their business, because that
would injurc himself. If the bank pros
pers only when the country prospers, 1t
follows 1t is the bankers chief interest
to guard the country's prosperity. And
since the laboringman can get best en-
ployment only when the country pros
pers,. It is also the laboringman's chief
interest to guard the country's prosperi-
ty. And so the laborer and the banker
stand side by side, with the came inter-
ests. the same purposes, and the same
results following their actions; for II
either does anything that destroys the
prosperity of the other or the prosperity
of the country, he thereby destroys his
own prosperity. And the welfare of the
workingman means the precedent pros
perity of the manufacturer who en-
ploys him. And the prosperity of the
manufacturer depends upon the prosperi-
ty Of the farmer who buys everything he
| makes. And the prosperity of the rail-
| road Is possible only when rapid and
| general exchange of products of farm
factory and mine occurs.

All patriotic mon should denounce that
slander. For there Is no business so ut
terly dependent on the welfare Of their
felow-men as the business of the bankers
OF the United States. Banks have but two
sources OF proft-interest and exchange
When times are good, money is in de-
mand, rates are high, exchange is brisk
and banks prosper precisely as the coun-
try prospcrs. When times are bad ex-
change dminishes loans are called in
and all the sources of income dry up Nike

earn largest dividends? Exactly when
the farmer gets highest prices for his
wheat; exactly when the manufacturer
sells most wares, exactly when the man
who tolls with his hardened hands is re-
warded with highest wages. When do
bank dividends decrease and finally fail +?
Exactly when the mdfchant dare not
buy because he cannot sell: when factory
wheels are motionless and factory fires
are ashes; when the farmer burns his
corn for fuel; when the miner starves
at the mouth OF the silent shaft, when
hunger sits at the table OF toll. These

FORTUNE OF a s1.IoID1v1DED.
Court Gives Each Of TWO Heirs Hi

Court Gives Each of Two Heirs His
Share of SIS Cents.
Sioux City, Oct. 22.-After a whole lot
of red tape, the probate court Friday
made final settlement of an estate in
which each of two heirs received the
munificent sum of So cents 1t required
nearly two years of time to dispose of
the matter. and besides the work Of the
court and the clerk it took the services,
of an administrator and a special adj
ministrator to transact the necessary
business connected with 1t. The feesand
the cost of the publication notice We're
far in excess Of the amount received by
the heirs. aggregating $3.50.
This estate comes very nearly holding
the Woodbury. county record for solvent
estate. Quite frequently men die with
out leaving enough property to pay
their debts. but rarely is the probate
court called on to take charge of an
estate that nets only s1.10 for its heirs.
The estate was that of Orrin B. Smith.
Who died about two years ago. One of
his heirs received his share Friday and
sreceipted for it: the other can get his
portion by calling for it any time.
