When Secretary Gage answers the
House resolutions demanding information
as to the deposits of government funds
made by him in banks, he should base his
arguments on the solid lines laid down by
Secretary of the Treasury Window, in bis
annual report for 1889. Speaking of these
deposits, Secretary Window thus predicted
what is now occurring under Secretary
Gage -
The national bank repositories have
been and are useful auxiliaries of the Sub
Treasury system, but the deposit of public
funds Herewith to an amount largely in
excess OF the needs Of the public service is
wholly upiustifable. Such a policy ia
contrary to the spirit of the act of August
6, 1916, which c0ntemplates Sub-Treas.
ury independent of the banks.
:: Il necessarily involves temptations to
favoritism of the most Objectionable char
acter.
1t makes the Treasury more or less de-
pendent on the banks, on account of the
difficult and delicate task of withdrawing
the deposits when wanted without Great
ing serious disturbances Of financial con-
ditions.
It involves the exercise of most danger
Gus power by the Secretary, whereby he
may, if so disposed, expand or contract the
currencylat will and in the interest Of
certain favorites whom he may select.
g. It is grossly unjust to the Government
to grant the free use of money while ii
pays to the very parties thus favored and
Al per cent. interest on its own bonds, " hich

The Philadelphia ballot box suffers who
were caught red handed in their work last
Fall, and against whom indictments were
found last week, failed to appear for trial
last Monday, and their bail, 81 800 to

has been an honest ballot in Philadelphia
for twenty-five years, yet the honest
press of Philadelphia profess wonder that
the Democracy is not more aggressive.

The Kentucky Republicans are in a
sorry plight with destruction and annihila-
ton staring them in the face. By a system
of bribery never before even contemplated
by any party they secured an apparent
popular majority for Governor, and the
certificate of election was given to their
candidate. Then combination with anti
Goebel-Bluck burn Senators and Assembly
men, and on January 1st the Republicans
were in complete control-with Cover
nor, Senate and Assembly.
Then came the exposure of the pay.
ment of 81 500 for a Senatorial vote against
GOebel and Blackburn This forced
every Democrat into the Goebel caucus, as
it would have been charged that those re.
fusiDg to attend the caucus had been
bribed by Whallen, Republican worker.
A row between the anti-Goebel Demo
Gratis and Republicans followed close OIL
the heels of the bribery sensation, and the
election of Blackburn as Senator and
Goebel as Governor was clinched.
Thus is triumphant fraud and bribery
laid low 10 old Kentucky
