An Ohio Dilemma.

i, The republicans of :Ohio find them
selves ina dilemma. They are about
to hold state convention in which
they will undoubtedly wish to express
their sentiments of approval of the
Roosevelt administration. But if they
do, the next question will be what
shall they do with their senators and
representatives who opposed the presi-
dents program Of legislation tooth and
toenaila Shall they approve the presi-
dents efforts to get satisfactory rate
law and also approve the course of
Senator Foraker, who fought the rate
law and was the only republican in the
senate who voted against it4 Shall
they approve the course of Senator
Charles Dick, who opposed the presi-
dent in many other matters tho voting
for. the rate laws The question has
been put up to Senator Foraker and he
says the convention may do as it likes,
but calls attention to the fact that if
loyalty to the president is the shib-
boleth, then Congressman Burton IS case
must be attended to, as he voted against
the president IS naval program. He Of
fers, if given time at the convention,
to bring up the names of other Ohio
statesmen who did not get in line.
Probably the "others''- will see to it
that Senator Foraker is given time for
no such ingenious purpose.
A compromise has been proposed,
that the president be cordially Endorsed,
the senators less cordially, some of the
congressman still less cordially, and
others not at all. The niceties of Ian
guage to be employed in order to hand
out Endorsements differing in degree of
warmth would doubtless exercise the
ingenuity of deputy Henry James for
many hours. We should think, how
ever, that if Senator Dick were not one
of the defendants, the job could be
safely left to him. Judging from his
reply to Gompers, he can write an in
dorsement, which will read the same,
both forward and back, up and down or
across, to which whole sentences might
be added without interfering with the
flow of its ,obscnrity, from which en-
tire clauses might be lifted without

Worse than Highway Robbery.

black antimony in twenty drug stores

somewhat in medical prescriptions, but

: A Ratified Opposition.

The boldness of the Jones campaign
has evidently ratified, the opposition.
They expected to see the mayor ap-
peal to the: public for support on the
general record of his administration.
They did. not expect to hear him make
the. saloon issue paramount and to defy
the opposition to discuss it with him.
He has done so and the opposition, un-
able or unwilling to put itself on rec.
ord on that subject, has gone a wander
ing. DR.. Williams :. declares in one
breath that he will. mot make any
pledges and in the next he pledges him
self to institute an ambulance service.
IF; DR.. Williams can make one sort Of
pledge why cannot he make another9
If he can pledge himself to produce an
ambulance service. why cannot he
Epledge himself to- enforce the Sunday
laws9, Is it because he is already I'M
der another kind Of pledge privately or
because he thinks the Sunday laws will
enforce themselvesa IF he is pledged
to- not enforce the laws against. gam
bling and Sunday saloons why does he
not say SO frankly and remove any
doubt as to where he stands? If he
believes those laws are automatic and
self enforcing will he not discuss the
question on the stump and give the
voters the basis Of his beliefs
Mayor Jones. has expressed himself
on the platform as being Of the opin-
ion that the Sunday saloon issue is. not
settled, that those laws are not self
|;supportingt but require an energetic,
'vigilant and sympathetic executive to
enforce them or they will not be en-
forced. So he declares he will enforce
them if; reelected. This makes the
question" before the voter: 1NtIDo Tor do
III not want the Sunday saloon law en-
forced9 If do must vote for Jones,
who is the only candidate before the
people who is on record on the sub
siect.' %*t-,'--..->:-ss ~ =,
There is then no escape from the
test. Mayor Jones said: in the ,thir-
teenth ward on Saturday night that he
expected on this issue to receive the
votes: of some men who do not like him
personally. He expected on the issue
to receive majority of the votes cast
in the republican primaries because he
believed majority Of the republicans
favor the enforcement Of the laws. At
the election in November he had no
doubt of the outcome if the republican
party would but by nominating him
put him in a position to bring the is
sue before the people.

The stagecraft Of William Gillette has

Insurlng Bank Deposits.

There is probably no subject before the
American people today Of more interest
to the public than the question Of how to
make. the banks an absolutely safe place
to deposit money, and 7 think it$iss}the
dutysof newspapers to take up and. dis
cusss this question until a better system
is adopted 9;s,@ @.;sll s:,S
I can see no better wayithan to compel
all banks to insure their -depositors in
full by paying percentage Of their av-
erage deposits each year. into, an insur-
ance fund in the hands of the controller
of the currency for the national banks,
and in. the hands of the state banking
Commissioner for the state and private
banks. s
Then when bank fails the bank exam
liner should go there Immediately and pay
all depositors in full, take over the as
sets and collect the same, u putting the
proceeds back into. the insurance fund.
until he has collected as much as he paid
out to the depositors, when he will turn
over the balance Of the assets to the own
ters Of the bank. ~, -

A Few Questions for Voters.

Here is question for the republican
voters of the city to ponder. What
sort Of reputation would Minneapolis
have in America if Mayor Jones should
be repudiated at the republican prima-
rya The city got q certain kind of
reputation out Of the Ames administra-
ton. The failure to convict the chief
offender in that administration did the
city more moral harm than the crimes
, Of the administration ITSELF America
doubted the devotedness of MINNEAPOLIS
to the best ideals Of citizenship. The
election Of Mr.. Jones as mayor, and his
course in first cleaning up the police de-
Epartment, then putting. public gambling
under the ban, and then setting the
machinery in motion against the Sun
!, day saloon. did much to rehabilitate
minneapolis. What will be thought of
Minneapolis if she now repudiates that
administration, thus confessing that she
has tired Of reform? Will it not dis
courage the reform fight in other great
citiess
!; Z Is it wise for Minneapolis to take the
back track Just when other progressive
cities are going forward9
is it necessary? Do business .eondi-
lions here Justify the suspicion that
! Sunday closing has hurt US as cityY
/ Has, Minneapolis ever been more pros
perous9 Has her population ever grown
fasterF Has, her school enrolment
ever shown larger increased Has the
city ever had greater attractions for
strangers looking for a. new. locations
:. Il Would the Sunday saloon induce one
desirable family to come here? Would
the closed Sunday saloon; tend to keep
. one desirable family away from this
city9 - ..,,.y-,.y -->
l. The answer to these questions ought
to determine the attitude Of the man
! who is looking at this question from a
commercial standpoint. If he means
!; business by his vote let him look at
ii.the question from its largest: business
Inspect.
H. Is there a real estate owner who be-
AAslieves that Sunday saloons will increase
the price Of his holdings, bring in new
/ residents and create a greater competi-
{ tive market for the sale of~his -lots9 .
RI Is there a merchant who believes the
Sunday saloon will increase j.. the pur-
chasing power Of the community, and

tmore goods9 ~ - =
Il Is there manufacturer who believes
that the Sunday saloon will increase the
efficiency of his :workmen and: thus tend

Is there workingman, clerk, cashier
'Foria man anywhere on salary who be-
lieves that the Sunday saloon will have
any influence toward making him per.
sonally richer, happier, healthier or Of
more consequence in the community9
These are a few Of the questions to
be pondered by the republican voter
when he goes to the polls TO vote for
