That day he visited the bank three
different times. The last time he
stood In the doorway and told the
banker . few Of the hot things that
rankied In his brain. Old Jim stood
aside and snarled.
He visited the store and asked for
food. When the storekeeper suggest

and left the place. He went to the
post once with q letter he had writ

scalding tears and heart burnings-
The postmaster spoke to him. asking

''Two-fifty." said the man. "and It's

Lundquist slid the money hesitate

The newest hats in the millinery en-

A JURY OF uNLeARNeo MEN.
Not One Of Them Could Read or Write

Il have been engaged in the prac
tice OF law a good many years. said
8. 8. Urmy. police Judge OF Topeka,
Kan. one day recently. "and about the
most humorous thing l ever saw In a
court room was In Topeka.
One day an old negro man was be,
ing tried In the justice court. that was
before the office Of police Judge was
created, and he demanded a trial by
a jury OF his peers. He could neither
read nor write and his lawyer insisted
that the jury. to be his peers. as re.
quired by law, must be unable to read
or write, too. To avoid disputes I
agreed to 1t. but we had a time find-
ing IL men In Topeka who could
neither read nor write. But We did
find them and the case went to trial.
Before the jury retired I took two
pieces Of paper and wrote Guilty on
one piece and Not guilty on the
other and instructed the foreman of
the jury to destroy the one he did
not wish used and to return the other
to me when the jury had reached a
verdict. The jury was out only a few
minutes when II came in. The fore
man handed me a piece of paper with
the word Guilty written on It.
We'll, gentlemen. you find him
guilty. do your asked.

pEACE WITH HONOR.

1t must be apparent TO the majority
OF the people of Utah by this time that
there can be no peace in the state. no
real and abiding community of inter
ests that shall include all 1classes and
all creeds, until both factions of the
Republican party have been buried SO
deep under public condemnation that
they canot be resurrected.
Daily. almost hourly. the public Is
deluged with appeals for the support
Of the Smoot wing on one side and, on
the other, lamentations over the decad-
ence of the state from the American
wing. One side thinks the Americans
are a menace to the commonwealth;
the other side declares the Smoot syn
dictate is injuring the state irreparably.
In way both are right.
Suppose the Smoot faction should by
chance win the elections this fall in
spite Of the hopeless division of the
party. Is there a man so deluded as
to think such a success would abate
one jot Of the campaign of defamation
being waged against the state on his
this fall tend TO prolong the agony.
furnish grounds for the American
claim that Smootism dominates the
state, and strengthen the American
cause by that much?
Suppose. on the other hand, that the
American ticket should be successful.
I'm spite Of the ghastly record Of the
Americans in city administration, and
in spite Of the character of men who
have been installed as it's representa-
tives In Office. Would that quiet the
clamor, the confusion and the bitter
ness the Americans have fomented and
thrived upon here?
The answer to these postulates seems
very clear Just one result at the polls
would settle the whole controversy,
and that is the election of a Demo-
cratic ticket from congressman down to
the last name on the ticket. The Dem
ocratic party is aligned with no fac
tion in this internecine quarrel II
asks no church influence or any other
extraneous influence I'm it's fight. II
promises a clean administration OF
public affairs. a political fight on po-
ltical lines only. and the elimination
of the Smootites and the Americans
as factions from public office.
Nothing could be more beneficial &c
Utah than the RELOCATION of the fac
tions to the limbo Of the political dead
and II the Democratic party had this
issue only as a campaign cry, it would
appeal successfully to the common
sense and sound judgment of the vot-
ers. Few sensible men would hesitate
in a choice between eternal turmoil
and that peace with honor which the
Democratic party offers the voters OF
Utah.

PROTECTING BUSINESS.

Secretary Shaw's letter to national
banks advising them that government
deposits are not TO be sent TO New
York for loan on call means business.
When q reserve bank has large sums
on hand the temptation to transfer
funds TO New York and take advan-
tage OF the high rates OF interest will
ingly paid by spectators is almost ir-
resistible. The effect, however, is to
divert money from legitimate business
channels and make it available for
gambling purposes, initiating stock val
ues fictitiously and demoralizing bust
ness generally.
Just now Wall street Is attempting
to sustain a big bull movement under
conditions which would ordinarily pre-
clude anything like an active market
The reserves In New York banks are
very low for this time of year, little
gold Is available for import and the big
wheat and corn crops demand enor-
nous shimpents of currency to the
west. The situation has developed a
contest between the spectators and
the western business interests for con-
troll of the money market, and the
spectators, as is usual are offering
tremendous rates of interest for money
on call. The effect OF the secretary
letter TO the banks was seen imme-
diately In Wall street, resulting in a
shrpkage Of speculative values and
chilling the enthusiasm Of the Wall
street operators markedly.
It is one of the anomalies of our
financial system that the government
treasury can be utilized either to ad-
vance or retard speculation. but so
long as the system is retained it Is well
for the treasury to distinguish between
legitimate and illegitimate use of
| government deposits. In this case Mr..
Shaw is right in protecting the bust
ness men of the country and rendering
it possible for them TO secure money at
a reasonable rate for legitimate pur-
| poses.

MR.. BRYAN AND Mr.. DEPEW:

Some OF our Republican neighbors in
commenting on the speech OF Mr.. Bryan
In Madison Square Garden on the occa-
sion of his return home a few days ago.
fell into the unguarded and unWarranted
declarations of 1896. The Commercial
went so far as to say that the policies ad-
vanced by the great Nebraskan were dis
honest. That was a favorite expression
OF the Republican orators and Republican
newspapers in the campaign of 1885, the
first time Mr.. Bryan was nominated for
the presidency.
Many Buffalonians will undoubtedly re-
call the speech of the Hon. Chauncey M.
Depew in this city during that campaign.
Mr.. Depew was particularly free in re-
ferring to Mr.. Bryan as dishonest as an
anarchist and In his use of other disgust
Bryan was "A dishonest leader of dis
honest men"
1t is fitting TO recall at this time that
Mr. Depew and Mr.. Bryan have recently
the demand of an investigating commit
tee that he come home and account for
moneys entrusted to him by the poorer
classes of the United States for their
widows and orphans, which money had
been squandered by Mr.. Depew and his
associates in the life insurance and other
frenZied financial institutions. Mr. Bryan
returned to be greeted by the grandest
demonstration of welcome ever accorded
an American citizen in civil life. Each
individual can draw the comparison of
the home coming of those two men.
1t i'll becomes the Republican press or
the Republican leaders of this city or this
state to refer to Mr.. Bryan's policies or
principles as dishonest. Look over the
record of prominent Republicans In this
state. from those in the United States
senate down TO the very smallest in this
county, for the past ten years. Those
of Republican faith who have referred to
Mr.. Bryan as dishonest ought to bow their
heads in shame.
