Nota del dia

Fn los rostros de los vecinos

un bochorno y una pesadum-
bre.
ST Sc exCeptuan los festejos
organizados por ell Casino Es-

la Isla, NADIA ha sido organizado
aqui. Esto es 10 que pone en-
todos los esplritus la amargura
de un remordimiento.
Hoy Sc ha visto, ante el de :
samparo dolorosamente EXPIRE
sivo de un dla abandonadO, de
una gran fiesta desacatada, de
una gloriosa tradici6n dejada

to que el sentimiento de esa
tradici6n vive poderosamente y
que esta arraigado en- Ell espi-
ritu popular.
Algo que tai vez dejara me-
morla mas perdurable que ell

tros apesadumbrados y entris-
tecidos y sc exterioriza en- to-
das las palabras.
Sc echa de menos la cele-
bracion de la fiesta.
Es una preOcupaCion esa que
puebla los espiritus de sombras
de invenCible pesadumbre. To
das las voluntades palpitan al

Pasara el dla de hoy, dejando
un recuerdo amargo de alqo
que sc ha debido hacer Y no sc
ha hecho; pasara con la solem-
ne tristeza de los fraCasos, pero
a fe que en- todos los espiritus
fuertes ha nacido el prop6sito
de corregir en- amos venideros
el lamentable apocamiento i'm
perante que sc reve!a en- Ell he
cho lristisimo de que pase, en-
la lorna que pasa, el dia del
Patron, sin que la tradici6n, que

Hay TN verdadero estado de
opinion que puede compulsarse
tacllmente y que es en- todo fa-
vOrable a que sc Celebre la fes
ia que tiene tan indiscutiblc sig
nihcacion en- 10 que a la perso-
nalidad de la colonia sc refere.
La dign1sima protesta que ha
Tesonado cole lectivamente contra

CATARRH YIELDS
To Healing Air of Hyomei-Soid Under
Guarantee by A. II. Cordiner.

Catarrh is the most prevalent dis
ease known to humanity. Probably 80
per cent of the people in this country
suffer at one time or another with this
common disease.
1t is a germ disease and hence can
be cured only by some method that
will reach and destroy the germs.
This is best found in Hyomei. which
may be called the direct method of
treating catarrh, as it's medication,
taken in with the air you breathe, goes
directly to every air cell in the nose,
throat and lungs; kills all catarrhal
germs; heals the irritated mucous
membrane and vitalizes the tissues so
as to render catarrh no longer possible.
A. H. Cordiner gives his absolute
guarantee to refund the price to any
catarrh sufferer that Hyomei fails to
benefit.

Term. of suhsorlptlon.


Financiers from one end of the coun-
try 10 the other say that confidence Is
the thing demanded, that If the people
would but have confidence In business
conditions and their bankers all would
be well. and yet there are those who
stand in opposition To n government
guarantee by the banks although II
would not cost the people n cent, the
small charge being paid by the bank
ers themselves.
There is no question but that col.
hdence Is the thing desired and that
may be brought about by putting the
government behind the deposits of the
people. Foreigners are generally OF
the opinion nat our government is
as sound as it is possible for Il %.
eminent to be. Tut they are unfamiliar
with the banking methods in vogue in
this country and Mt the first whisper of
alarm they rush for their money. Tn S
thing has been done so many times in
the large ci,ies that IL would appear
n~onsensical to still pursue the Old
method. In New York alone durirS
the recent furry more than one hun
dred million dollars was drawn from
the banks and trust companies for the
purpose OF boarding If the people hal
had confidence this would not AVE oc-
Cured and all would have moved along
serenely so far rs runs We're concerned
All the money would have been in use
all the time. OF course, the man who
mortgages his house TO buy an auto
mobile" cannot be looked after. Moth
ing short of n guardian OF a lunatlc
asylum will reach his case.
Senator Carter of Montana, a man OF
great power in the upper house, has
been looking into this matter, and he
is of the opinion that a simple remedy
such as that which has been suggest
by The Republican and advocated so
abb, by some of Wyoming's leading
bankers. may be applied. He urges
that a tax of o~ne-quarter of one per
cent be levied upon deposits to ere
ate u fund for the guarantee of depos-
its in national banks and that this tax
be removed when the fund is sufficient
ly large to meet all demands without
futher levy. Senator Carter is of the
opinion that this simple ~expedient
would so establish confidence in the
national banking system that the con-,
litions that have existed during the
last month or six weeks would never
occur again, He says thousands of
millions of deposits have been witr
drawn and placed in safety deposit
vaults, old stockings and teapots, with
the result that the circulation has been
materially depleted. All this would lie
returned to the channels of trade AMI
perform the function for which 1t was
intended.
The Republican believes there is net
q banker In the United States who hats
not lost more than enough during the
past six weeks to have paid his portion
Of the tax that would be required 10
guarantee deposits for many years.
With such men as Senator Carter
pushing the matter there is hope thlt
the measure will be seriously consiG-
cred by congress.

CONFESSES CRIMES Director of Armenian Mur- ders Held in New
 York. SOCIETY BROKEN UP Captive Tells of Killing of Priest and Wealthy
 Merchant.
SOCIETY BROKEN UP

New York, Aug. 13.-The secret so- ciety of the Hunchakist has been smashed by the efforts of the New York police force. It was announced early this morning by District Attor- ney Jerome and Deputy Commission CT Woods that, thanks to the efforts of the detective bureau, they had ar rested the ringleaders of the society and had obtained confessions from them.
 With the arrest of Kassak Jelalian on Sunday night the end of the soci- etyy became certain. This man con- fessed to MT. Jerome last night, the police say, after a gruelling examina- ton which lasted for more than six hours, that it was he, and no other, who had directed the murders of Father Kasper, whose body was cut to pieces, and the wealthy rug mer- chant, Tavshanjian, killed as he was entering his office near Union square.
 He furthermore stated, it is said, that he had stood by while Bedros Hamptzoonian waited for the coming of the victim and pointed out the doomed man.
 It is stated by Detective Petrosino, who has had the actual investigation in charge that Father Martouguessian Is not directly connected with the so- ciety, though he is still believed to have known a great deal of its inner workings
