THEIR CANDIDATE IN JAIL.
Colorado Socialists Nominate for GOV.
ernor Man Accused Of Completely
in Steunenbsrg Murder.

The socialist party of Colorado has
held convention in Denver and nom-
mated a full state ticke;, headed by
William D. Haywood, secre.ary-treas-
urer OF the Western Federation Of Mi
ners, now in prison in Idaho, for gov
ernor.
Heywcod is accused Of being par
ty to the conspiracy which resulted in
the murder OF Ex-Governor Steuner-
berg Of Idaho by dynamite bomb.
In nominating Haywood, John M.
Martin of Denver said:
u do not rise to name a well-groom-
ed business man or a professional pol
itician, seeking graft. Nor do 1 name
q labor leader who is dined and wined
at civic federation banquets. But
rise to name a man who in executive
ability is the peer Of the best and
whose personal integrity is without
stain.
"A man whose hands have bee,.
calloused by honest labor and whose
very heart throbs in sympathy with
those who toll. A man who has never
been praised by the capitalist press
as the greatest labor leader in the
world, but who, as labor leader
has never betrayed his trust nor sold
out a strike. A man who, because OF
his loyalty to the working class, has
been struck down by. brutal soldiery
on the streets Of our city.
"A man who for that same loyalty
was kidnapped by the command OF the
powers of capitalism and contrary IL
all legal forms and observances was
carried to a distant state and thrown
into a felons cell, where for months
he and his faithful comrades have
waited, demanding in vain the speedy
trial guaranteed to every citizen by
our constitution and laws, William D
Haywood, the prisoner in Caldwell
jail"
Mr.. Martin declared that the work
ing classes of Colorado would rally
to Haywood and that he would be
elected. Concluding, he said:
"And If they refuse to release him
we may feel impelled to march tc
Idaho, and take our chief executive by
force If necessary out of the teet'
; of the dogs of capitalism and carr,
him in triumph to our statehouse."

BANKS URGED TO HELP.
Secretary Shaw Appeals to National
Institutions to Aid Government in
Supplying Small Notes.

Secretary Of the Treasury Shaw
has issued an appeal to the national
banks to assist the government in
supplying pressing demand for notes
of small denomination. He has sent
to all national banks letter request
ing them to issue as much of the ag--
gregaie of their circulating notes in
five dollar bills as possible, indicating
that there is more profit in the
issuance of such notes than in put
ting out notes of a larger. denomina-
ION. In the course of his letter, Sec
retary Shaw says:
"The treasurer Of the United States
is unable to meet even at this sea-
son of the year the pressing demand
for notes of small denominations. The
coming autumn will greatly increase,
this demand In the absence Of legis-
lation, 1 am forced to appeal to the
national banks to use every reason
able effort to relieve the situation.
IF each bank will do its SHARE.
there will be no difficulty. Failing in
this, there will be slight reason to-
complain of the inevitable shortage
in small bills.
"rhe law permits national banks to
issue one-third of their circulating
notes in denominations Of five dol
lars. The aggregating outstanding ma
tional bank circulation is little over
$500, ,0oO, 600, one-third Of which, or
s166,OOO,OCO. might be in fve-dollar
notes. Instead Of this maximum, there
is approximately but S76,000,600 in
tives. The additional s90,000,000 in
fve-dollar bills now available would
greatly relieve the situation.
1T must be apparent that there Is
more profit in maintaining circulation
in small bills than in large. Large
bills are almost Immediately present
ed for redemption. Small bills f1nd
their way to the pockets OF the people
and remain in circulation much long
er, and only in proportion as they
stay in use is their maintenance prof
table. Issuing notes one day to have
them redeemed the next Is unprohta-
Bile to the banks and Of no benefit
to commerce.
81 wish to call your attention to
one other consideration. If the banks
generally will exercise little care
and pay over their counters only
national bank notes, they will greatly
assist in times of monetary strin>
gency. National bank notes are m
tended for use, not holding. They are
not available for reserve, and are
valuable only when in actual use.
Please use them and do not SEND
them in for redemption until unit Tor
use. They are just as secure, just as
safe, Just as convenient and just as
acceptable to the people, and thear
use leaves other forms OF money
available for reserve"

Hebrew in Jerusalem.

Yiddish is an archaic and corrupt
form of German extensively spoken by
Jews in many countries besides Ger
many itself. An instance Of its popu-
larity is given by writer. In Jerusa'

nounced me for being unable to con-
verse with him in Yiddish. You are
no Jew he protested, for you do not

Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany.

Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Conn
ranv. with general utl'irrS located in
Los Angeles CAL. the safest of our life
insurance institutions Of the Pacific
Coast. II is Il company that has made
Il most phenomenal hcadway: in fact.
t." such All extent that today it is
recognized rs one of the foremost com
panirs dnin" business. There are. of |
course. companies that arc larger than
this one. but takin" int" consideration
everything. there is not one that is
safer than the Pacific Mutual Life
Insurance Company.
This is all the more SO now since
tn" recent election of Mr.. George |
Cochran t" thc presidency. Mr.. Coch-
ran. not only in the State Of Califor-
mia. but throughout the entire Uni
ted States, is regarded as one Of the
most conservative Of financicrS, a man
who, due to perseverance, tact and
energy, has succeeded in making his
way in the world, and a man in whom
t he fullest measure of confluence may
hr we'll placed. Such is the man who
today stands at the head of the Paci-
fic Mutual Life Insurance Company,
and in sayin" that it is the leading
! and most substantial life insurance
organization on the Pacific coast we
contradiction.
The Pacific Mutual Life Insurance
Company operates under the laws of
the State of California. regarded as
being the st"ictest of any other state
in the whole Union, Il fact in itself
that speaks well for this company. 1t
might also be added here that the Cal
ifornia insurance law is undoubtedly
the safest of all other States in Uncle
Sam 5 domain. for the very SIMPLE
reason that it throws magnificent
protection around the policy holder.
Another thing. its policies are liberal
and issued with the interests of the
policy holder in view, something The
Times cannot say in behalf of every
other company. It's health and acci-
dent policies are among the broadcst
of any we have ever seen, and appeal
very strongly to the reading public
Another loyal feature of this com
pany is the unusual promptness with
which ii meets its losses, wc having
never heard one single solitary thing
against them. Most companies take
advantage of the full period Of time
allowed by law in which to settle the
claims. With the Pacific Mutual this
is altogether different. All they ex-
act is proof of death, illness or acci-
dent. and the money is Immediately
forthcoming, according to the kind
or nature Of the policy N question. 1t
s throughout, in our estimation,
'horou%hly i5cal Institution, one that
