and the old gentleman shows how deep

ticket by adding that he regrets very
much that third ticket has not been
put in the field, opposing imperialism

ing case of trampling upon the consti-
tuition and overriding the fundamental
principles upon which this government
was established which this country has
witnessed within the past year. The
conservative good sense OF the Repub-
lican leaders of Kentucky was all that
saved the state from being the scene
OF deadly conflict in arms, as the re-
suit OF this dastardly assault upon the
principles OF free and representative

this fraud. this outrage which has cast
a blot ON the state of which he Is the

Mr.. Beckham's Effrontery.


Mr.. Beckham. fraudulent governor of
Kentucky and candidate for reelection,
shows his qualifications as a leader In
the present Democratic campaign Of
hypocriticai false pretenses. With the
record of his party in Kentucky behind
him and known Of all men, he opens
his campaign by an attack upon the
Republican party in the nation as fol-
lows: "They have trampied upon the
constitution, and have sought to over
ride the fundamental principles upon
which this government was establish
ed"
The effrontery Of such n remark as
this, coming from man like Beck
ham, almost surpasses anything re-
corded in the line OF partisan hypocrisy.
He holds his seat as governor Of Ken
lucky by virtue OF the most glaring
infraction of the principles OF free gov
eminent Of which the history Of this
country furnishes an example. The In
famous Goebel law Is such a stencil In
the nostrils OF the decent people OF the
country that the men responsible for
It have made haste TO call a special
session OF the Kentucky legislature.

pie of Kentucky have another oppor-
tunity TO voice their opinion OF II at

dous power which That law gave into
the hands Of the Democrats OF Ken

the popular majority in favor OF the
Republican nominees In the last eiec-
ton.
The members % the partisan election
board. appointed under that infamous
law. everyone OF whom was a political
friend and worker for Goehel, at the
last moment were restrained by SOME
lingering remnant Of decency, or lack
cd the nerve TO carry out the pro-
gramme which had been outlined for
them. and werr forced 20 return GER

Banking Under the New Law.

There have not been so many small
banks formed under the provisions of
the new financial law as was expected
at the time that measure passed. Ac-
cording to the Bankers Magazine. the
number OF applications approved by
the comptroller OF the currency for
charters for banks with a capital OF
less than $4,000 is 264, and of these
eighty-two were actually organized.
with an aggregate capital OF s2.175. 900.
This is a good showing, and supports
the contention that the national system
could be extended to small communi-
ties. IL the requirements as to capital
were reduced.
On the other hand. It is pointed out
that there has been no great rush OF
established state banks. doing fairly
good business. to take advantage Of
the opportunity. They have failed to
perceive any such opportunities as
have been pointed out by Popuiistic
orators TO make enormsus profits out
of circulation. With government per
cent. bonds selling at 1o4. and with the
existing tax on bank circulation and
the cost Of printing bank notes to be
deducted. the proflt on circulation
shrinks to such infinitesimal figures
as hardly to warrant the state banks
in taking advantage Of the opportunity

the national banking system.
