OFFICIAL PAPERIoF ALLEN COUNTY
JOHN SHERMAN. STATESMAN.

John Sherman, statesman. That Is
the way it will stand written in all the
histories of the United States hereaf-
ter, when mention is made of the
man who died at Washington last
Monday
Four times elected to Congress, six
times to the Senate, once Secretary of
the Treasury, once Secretary of State,
and more than once conspicuously
mentioned for the Presidency, John
Sherman has been a marked figure in
American political history for more
than forty years. He has been bitterly
assailed by the ignorant and
preiudiced, the people who are always
seeing 'conspiracies" and ''money
powers" and great red dragons" and
similar ghosts and hob-gobins. But
the impartial and enlightened verdict
of history will be that John Sherman
deserved we'll of the Republic, thatnot
since the Revolutionary days has
America had a more honest or patri-
otic or wisely constructive statesman.
He studied always to,build up, not to
tear down. And he built for the time
to come, not for the day. AS little as
any politician in all history did he
deserve the epithet, demagogue, for
he was never a time-server, never a
trimmer of sails to catch favoring
breezes. The thing he believed to be
true was the thing he said. The
thing he thought ought to be done was
the thing he did.
And so at his grave the bitter words
that have been spoken against him will
be forgotten, and his countrymen will
remember only that here was man
who spoke the truth, who served his
country through good and through
i'll report, faithfully, honestly and
with commanding power and ability

BONDS GOOD As SOLD.
Mr.. Lanyon Hears From Mr.. Atwood
and Says he "Guesses the Work
may as Well Proceed"

1t is finished. After two elections
and monkey business enough to have
stocked menagerie lola has
finally voted, issued and sold to Mr.
William Lanyon $50, 900 in bonds for
waterworks and electric lights. Mr..
Atwood gave his decision Saturday as
he promised and the word came into
lola in letter to Mr. Lanyon Sun
day stating that the bonds were legal.
Mayor Mcclure talked with him over
the matter to the following purpose.
The Mayor; "Well | understand
MIR. Atwood approves the bonds and
we may consider them sold"
Mr.. Lanyon: "Yes | guess So"
The Mayor: Then | shall tell Mr..
Cook to go ahead and wire for the
pipe and machinery to come ahead.
Mr.. Lanyon: Eyes, l guess so"
The Mayor: "And you and will
get together Monday or Tuesday and
arrange for the transfer of the bonds
and the payment of the money"
Mr., Lanyon: "Yes, | guess So"
And Mr.. Lanyon's guess SO"
means more to lola than most people 5
positive assertions. 1t means the
prompt payment of the full sum of
money and the immediate prosecution
of the work.

A R0y OF LIgllt

For woman's guidance is found in the
fact that DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton cures female weakness and the dis
eases of the delicate womanly organs
which darken the lives of SO many wom-
en- with suffering and sorrow. That ray
of light has penetrated many darlsened
chambers where women moaned in mis-
cry, and has guided them out to health
and happiness. "Favorite Prescription
is not a tonic, not palliative, but pos
tive cure for the diseases which are
peculiar to women. n gives vigor and
vitality. 1t banishes nervousness, head
ache, and all the aches which come from
diseased condition of the wonanly
organs A temperance medicine, it con-
tains neither alcohol nor narcotics.
III was troubled for three years with liberation
and female weakness and my doctor gave
but little reliefp writes Mrs. Lulu Hunter, of
Attention, st. Louis Co., Mo. "I saw an adver-
tisement in the paper Of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. I began the use Of il about year
ago. took five bottles Of 1t, and one bottle Of
Golden Medical Discovery and my health is
better now than II was for years. have also
recommended these medicines to some Of my
friends, who suffered from female weakness,
and good results have followed"

as a fundamental condition precedent
to their right to representationin Con-
gress and in the electoral college, that
neither of the said states should ever
amend its constitution so asto abridge
the right of any voterresiding therein.
The act in question was passed on the
2Sth day oi July, 1865, and reads as
follows:
"That each of the states of North
Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana,
Georgia. Alabama and Florida, shall
be entitled and admitted torepresenta.
.tion in Congress as n State of the
Union when the legislature of such
State shall have duly ratified the
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States proposed by the 36th
Congress, known as Article ii, upon
the following fundamental conditions:
That che Constitution of neither of the
said States shall be amended or
changed as to deprive any citizen or
class of citizens of the United States
of the right to vote in said State, who
are entitled to vote by the heConstitution
thereof, herein recognized, except as
a punishment for such crimes as are
now felonies at common law, whereof
they shall have been convicted under
laws equally applicable to the in
habtants of all the States.

BREIDENTHAL AND THE BANKERS.

The claim has been very generally
made that the bankers of Kansas are
supporting Mr.. Breidenthal, regard
less of party, because he has made so
good bank commissioner. The
REGISTER happens TO know Of one
banker who is not supporting Mr..
Breidenthal. The reason he gives is
that he spent four weeks at Topeka
during the special session of the legis-
lature. working to defeat MIR. Breiden-
thal's pet scheme, the 'depositor's $
guarantee bill" Perhaps some other
bankers have forgotten that bill, and
if so they may be interested in knowing
its provisions.
The purpose of the bill was to
guarantee the deposits i'm every State
bank. And the way it proposed to do
it was by requiring every banker to
keep on deposit with the State treas
urer five per cent of its average de-
posits, the fund thus accumulated be-
ing available to pay the claims of all
the depositors of any bank thatfailed.
In case this fund should not be
sufficient to meet the demands upon it
at any time, 1.-THE State treasurer shall
call upon all banks to make deposit
in the reserve fund SUFFICIENT 10
SUPPLY THE REQUIRED AMOUNT" O
course the bill provides that the
money thus collected shall be repaid
to the banks advancing it with interest
at q per cent but as there is no pro-
vision made for securing the money
necessary 20 do this except by the sale
of the assets OF the defunct bank, the
bankers can best Judge what the
chances of getting their money back
would be.
The bill is long one, but the fore
going is the substance of it. The pur.
pose of it is all right as far as deposi.
tors are concerned. But how do the
honest and capable bankers relish the
idea of being held responsible for the
obligations of dish onest or incapable
bankers? Would not such a measure
be the greatest possible encourage
ment for thieves to go into the bank
ing business, and would it not serious
ly endanger every honest banker? Dc
the honest bankers of Kansas want tC
be compelled to advance the none!
necessary to pay in full the depositori
of every bank that fails and take tn,
chances of realizing on the assets o
the failed banks TO get their none!
back?
This bill is one of MIR. Breidenthal'
pet schemes He pushed it through
the Populist Senate, and it was onl.
defeated in the Populist House by tn
narrow margin Of three votes. Wit
the added influence which Mr. Breiden
thai would have as Governor and witt
Populist legislature there can hardl!
