Corporation Commissioner Garfield
made speech the other day before a
class of New York university students
in which he severely arraigned the
business methods now prevalent in
Wall street. He said:
"There is a commercial conscience
which throws aside all ideals except
the acquisition Of wealth. It calls
trickery ability, SCOTS at common hon
esty and teaches that, all things and all
men have their price and can be
bought"
These words are absolutely true, and
the commercial conscience thus de-
scrited has become the political con-
science of the Republican party. It is
responsible for the protective tariff, the
subsidies to railroads the favoritism
shown to trusts, the proposed ship sub
sidy and the entire economic policy Of
that party. Tt is also responsible for
the corruption Of the voters, as Illus,
trated In the blocks OF FIVE" scandal,
and the s16,0oo,ooo corruption fund Of
the Hanna machine in 1895.

Roosevelt Rejects Theory of the
Peoples Sovereignty.
The theory OF our constitution is that
all federal powers are delegated pow
ers and must originate in grants made
by the people alone. or, in the language
Of the tenth amendment Of the consti-
tuition, that "the powers not delegated
to the United States by the constitu-
ton nor prohibited by it to the states
are reserved to the states respectively
or to the people" But President Roose-
velt rejects this theory and despises
this constitutional provision. In his
speech at the dedication of the new
capitol at Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 4 he
said:
"We need through executive action,
through legislation and through Judi
cial Interpretation and construction Of
law to increase the power of the fed
eral government
How can the power of the federal
government be constitutionally IN
creased through executive action, judi
cial Interpretation or congressional leg
islation? The only power which the
legislative, executive or judicial de-
partment of this government possesses
or can honestly possess must come
through the action of the people alone.
Roosevelt's declaration is entirely IN
constitutional, and his acts in pursu-
ance of that declaration are usurpa-

WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 81. 1906


The American bankers eommrrree
have formulated q plan Tor credit or
clearance, esssreney to be issued by ma
Honsa banks, IN addition to the bank
currency now issued with United States
bonds as security. The amount pro-
posed 30 be issued is not to exceed 80
per cent Of the bond secured circula-
9ion outstanding, which amounted to
S40Aoo0o0o In 1906, but which has
been largely increased since that date.
The security for this proposed issue Of
credit currency is rather indefinite, the
report of the committee stating:
Before any bank can issue credit, or
clearance, currency it must deposit
with the treasury department or de-
positories to be designated by the COM
mission approved securities of the
bank passed upon by the comptroller
of currency's department to an amount
10 per cent in excess of circulation to
be issued
The approved securities of the banks
probably mean the notes, secured and
unsecured, that have been discounted
by the banks, but that would seem TO
be very poor security for currency
and quite troublesome to handle on ac-
count Of its constantly being paid or
removed AS the comptroller of the
currency's office has not shown any
excessive ability In spying out defalea-
tons and other banking irregularities
in advance of the failure of banks, it
can hardly be trusted under the pres
ent management TO exercise further
discretionary powers for the protection
Df the public.
The people will indorse no law pro-
Hfdtng for bank currency that Is not
eedeemahie by the government, with
No possibility of loss for the people or
30 pay for loss by taxation.
But there Ia another question that
vastly affects all the people In this
scheme for currency imitation. and that
ls It's effect upon the price Of commodi-
ties. The present imitation through the
sncreased output Of gold and the in
crease OF the national bank currency
from 80 to 100 per cent of the face
value OF the bonds Deposited and the
great number of new national banks
authorized under the law which re-
duced the necessary capital TO $4,000
has inflated the circulating medium
from $15.32 per capita in 1878 to over
&82 now, or over 100 per cent and over
20 per cent since 1900. To this inlla-
lion may be charged part of the great
increase In prices. which is also largely
due to the monopolies created by tariff
protection of the trusts and combines.
The imitation Of the currency and the
prices Of commodities would seem to
Aava gone far enough for the comfort
and advantage Of the people and to
pass laws expressly for the benefit Of
the banking class and the Wall street
speculators is special legislation and
undemocTatic.
As the Republican party is notorious
n favorable to the banking and cor
pcrat1on interests, 1t is advisable for
voters 10 pledge candidates for CON
gress and state legislatures who will
slect United States senators, that they
szlu nnnose further imitation Of the cur

rency for the penent or tine UsnIs.
The only demand for this asset cur
rency is from the banks and from the
Wall street spectators, who are con-
stantiy crying for more money to carry
the burden Of the inflated valuation Of
stocks. which are largely based on no
real values.
Beware Of Republican candidates for
congress, but especially those who have
national bank and trust connections.
They are the Greeks bearing gifts and
expect return compensation

Little Daughter of MT. and Mrs. E. A Brannon Meets Peculiarly Sad
 Death.

Residents of Arkansas for only two days. MT. and Mrs. E. A. Brannon re- turned to their former home at Creighton, Neb., this morning with saddened hearts, taking with them in 2 coffin the body of their little daugh- ter. Eunice. The family arrived here Thursday, and Saturday, while the child was eating peanuts, one of the husks became caught in her throat md she choked to death.
 The family came here only Thurs day to take up their residence on a farm which MT. Brannon had purchas- ed near Rison The little girl was a bright, happy child, and was the pride of the family, and they are almost broken ill spirit by the tragedy which has overtaken them. The interment will take place at Creighton. where they had lived for many years, and it is doubtful if they ever return to Ar kansas.

 In view of the part that electricity plays in our modern life 1t Is amusing to recall that when Benjamin Franklin evolved the lightning conductor he was called to account by certain individuals for sacrilege in attempting to divert the Almighty's lightning"
 Restaurant proprietors and boarding house keepers have apparently over looked 8 valuable hint which Dr. Frank lin afforded them, as follows: He took an ancient rooster and killed 1t by a powerful shock from one of his Leyden jars. When subsequently the bird was served at his table fits flesh was found to be as tender as that of young par tridge." or so he declares. This Is one of the discoveries which should make the name of Franklin forever honored- Success Magazine.

NO FEAR OF YELLOW FEVER.

New Orleans, March 25.-Familiari- ty with the mosquito dogma of yellow fever transmission and the simple methods necessary to avoid the disease has robbed the great disturber of the south's tranquility of it's terrors. The reporting of a case of yellow fever in New Orleans in other years invari ably disturb the financial market. Subsequently the experts sent from several southern states after an au- topsy declared the case was not vel low fever at all. Meanwhile, however the financiers who are backing the s4.O00000 Audubon hotel project went ahead in full confidence and complet. ed their financial arrangements before the result of the autopsy became known, while the opening of the New Cosmopolitan Bank and Trust company, of which ex-Postmaster Frank A. Daniels is president, about the same time, broke all previous New Orleans bank records in the volume of initial deposits.
 What is true of New Orleans is ap-  proximately true of every other sec tion of the south. It is now appar. ently merely question of the thor. cughness of the public's knowledge of the necessity and efficiency of mo squito destruction. New Orleans having taken all such precaution, has lost most of.its fear of the disease.
