He spoke truly. Through the roar
was heard the rattle of iron on iron,
as the guard "stood to their arms" and
the wedge Of gray cloth broke, In sud

was an instant's pause, and then old
Pine walked, unmolested, down the pris-

him up, two Of you, and carry him to

Holding his gray head very erect In

straight down the line, without looking
to the right or left.

FOUR YOUNG ROC-aFELLER TELLS

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-John d.
Rockefeller, Jr., has become a sort OF

mighty, if a statement made to the
members OF his Bible class is any in
dication.
Nh. Rockefeller told the members If
his Bible class that "God does not
regard the drinking of a glass of beer
as a sin.
He continued on the subject by adj
ding that, CIT is the drinking to ex-
cess that is a sin in the sight of God.
A man can violate God s laws as much
by over eating as by over drinking
1t is related, however, that Mr..
Rockefeller didn' It fix the limit IN the
quantity of beer to be consumed by
the person who wants to keep inside
the danger line, and it has been sug-
gested that perhaps he intended leav-
ng that as a matter of individual
Judgement, each person to be the sole
arbiter of their carrying capacity.
Ultra-temperanee people IN Mr..
Rockefeller church rather look upon
his statement as being dangerous to
good morals, but it is hardly possible
hat any member of the congregation

RETRIBUTTON.

At the Harris-Folk meeting Wednes-
day night it was stated preliminary to
Colonel Harris address that upon the
retirement OF Colonel Harris from the
United States senate every member Of
the Kansas delegation in congress uni
ted in recommending him for a place
on the Isthmian canal commission.
This Is an error. Senator Long did
not join in that recommendation. Had
he done so 1t is quite likely that Colonel
Harris would have been named as a
Democratic member Of that commits
sion. President Roosevelt had a high
regard for tbs integrity and ability Of
Senator Harris, who had been one OF
the leading advocates Of the canal In
the senate. It would have occasioned
no great surprise had the president
named Harris over Senator Longs OBJ
lection.
Had Senator Long Joined In that rec
ommendation it Is not at all improba-
BILE that Colonel Harris would now be
busy down at Panama instead of max
ing Senator Long, Governor Hoch and
other Republican leaders so much trou-
bic in Kansas. Without strong per-
sonality like Harris to center on, it is
hardly probable that the opposition ID
Governor Hoeh would have united so
strongly as to become the menace it is
to the governors reelection.

A. J. Drexel brings from his Scot
fish estate a story Of a Highlander.
There was a Well-known American
writer" he said at a dinner, who au-

hotel IN the Highlands was treated
with the greatest ineivility-
Accordingly he complained to the
manager.

room. The inattention and insolence
of this man are insupportable.'

money to secure their deposits. as pro-
posed BY Commissioner Royce. This
would be repeated annually until a
guaranteed fund of 100000 was ac-
eumulated. This fund would be under
the control Of the bank commissioner,
and invested in absolutely safe securi-
ties
In case Of a bank failure the receive
er's final report would be made to show
the actual loss of individual depositors-
Upon this the bank commissioner could
draw upon the fund for the payment
OF every depositor whatever the sum
of his loss might be.
Some such a plan would absolutely
guarantee the banking business OF this
state and make it impossible for any
one to lose money by a bank failure
from any cause, and It is believed that
the interest derived from such fund
would meet the requirements and keep
the amount always above the original
reserve fund.

THE LAST GALL.

This is Friday, October 26. It is lust
ten days until election. Consequently
at 10 O'Clock tonight the registration
books are scheduled to close, and IL you
are not registered by that time you
cannot vote this fall
Being Friday 1t will be your unfor-
tunate day-if you do not register.
About tomorrow you will discover that
you are very much interested in some
candidate. and II you don't register you
won't be able to vote any more than a
ten-year-old school boy.
A good many people who have not
registered are probably interested in
the election Of the dry candidates for
county offices who were nominated last
spring. It Is worse than useless to nom
mate in the primaries candidates who
represent your views and then let them
be defeated at the polls. simply because
you do not take the time and trouble to
register.
Besides, here is another point: If you
register now and vote in this election
you will not have to bother to register
next spring. The fact of your voting at
one election registers you for the next
one, under the new law. Conversely, II
you did not vote at the election last
spring and have not registered since,
you are not registered now. no matter
If you were registered prior to the
spring election.
Incidentally this Is the last time this
fall that the state Journal will mention
this matter to you.

It was certainly a magnificent re-
eeption which Topeka rendered Vice
President Fairbanks at the auditorium
last night. The five thousand people
who crowded into the building were
augmented by several thousand more
on the outside. and the greeting given
Mr.. Fairbanks was enthusiastic in all
quarters. It was a reception in keep
ing with the exalted place occupied by
the vice president Of the United States.
It could scarcely be expected, Of
course. that Mr.. Fairbanks would dis
cuss the local issues in Kansas. His
speech OF itself was not Of the sort to
arouse any great amount Of spontane-
Gus enthusiasm in people who are IN
terested in something else. It was a
careful historical review from Re
publican standpoint, and the greater
portion of it might have been made six
years ago as well as last night Even
the new issues that have been brought
to the front by President Roosevelt
were discussed only briefly. But to
the student Of political history it was
an interesting study.
The real kansas campaign speech
was that made by Henry J. Allen. As
an effective address in the present
Kansas contest It would have been
hard to surpass. Mr.. Allen Is not
afraid to say things and he knows how
to say them. It Is doubtful Il any Kan
san since the days OF John J. ingalls,
can hold an audience better than
Henry Allen. Still young in years, Mr
Allen Is one Of the coming men Of
Kansas, and the Republican party OF
this state will honor itself IL 1t some
time places him at It's head.
