DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
THE ADMINLSIRAT TON AND WALL
GTREKT

The extraordinary measures of the United
States Treasury to aid the frenzied finan-
ciers of Wall Street will only give tempo
5 rary relief. The gold forced from abroad
by paying a premium for it there will re-
turn TO Europe If the balance Of trade de-
loaned TO the selected and therefore favored
banks will have to be returned to the Treas
ury, or more bonds will have to be sold to
replenish the balance in the Treasury and
80 help out Wall Street. A sound financial
policy would not have required the late sale
of Panama bonds and thus saddle the peo-
pie with an interest bearing debt, when
millions were on deposit in the banks not
drawing any interest. A business man who
would issue his notes drawing interest while
he had large balance at his bankers which
was earning no return would be thought
non coanpos mentis and his friends would ask
that guardian be appointed to prevent him
from squandering his property.
Why does Secretary Shaw, President
Roosevelt consenting, take this loose and
unbusiness like coursep The only answer
can be that the Wall Street influence in
Republican councils is more influential than
the interests of the people. The Rockefeller
influence has been all powerful, while the
people have had no friend at court. The
accredited agent of the Rockefeller banking
interests can be seen daily at the United
States Treasury consulting and advising
with the officials and even ordering them
what to do and all that is done favors the
Rockefeller interests. The division OF the
$26 900, 900 just loaned to the favored banks
all over the country is really loaned to the
Wall Street institutions, for the high rates
for money there will force the money to
that center, or the banks receiving 1t will
not draw the money that they have on de.
post In the Wall Street banks or loaned on
call, which will virtually allow the Wall
Street Spectators to use the money just de.
posted with the banks.
The United States Treasury was never
intended to become an adjunct of Wall
Street to bolster up its most disreputable
spectators, but under Republican manage
ment that is what 1t has come to and yet the
present Administration processes to be re.
formers Of abuses.
