Deyoured by Wolves.

With the appearance of snow in Rou
mania wolves, those grim terrors of un-
known western Europe, every year in
hard weather claim their victims. Their
first victims in the present year we're
parish priest and his man servant, who
went few days ago on sledge from the
village of Ludesti to Tergovesti. For
days the snow had laid thick on the
ground. On their return journey they
we're oyertsken by the dusk in forest
near Ludesii by pack of wolves, who
attacked them.
The terrified horses overturned the
sledge and broke the traces, leaving the
men and sledge behind, and not stop
ping till they reached the first village on
the outskirts of the forest. A searching
party followed the tracks of the horses,
and at last found pawmarks in the snow,
splashes of blood and tatters of what
had once been clothing, which told with
horrible vividness what had happened.

The grain men ard the bankers
of Minneapolis and Duluth have
formulated a plan by which they
hope to move the grain crop of the
northwest without the use of cur
rency, and bankers in this state
are being asked to cooperate. The
plan is to have the local grain buy
ers pay the farmers for their grain
with checks drawn on Minneapolis
banks. These checks may be de-
posted by the farmer in his local
bank for which he will be given
credit on which he may Issue
checks to pay his own bills. The
Minneapolis checks will be for
warded by the local banker to Min
neapolis where the local bank will
be given credit, and against this
credit may issue drafts. la this
way no currency would be used but
the system of exchanges would an
swer all purposes. The success of
the scheme depends altogether up
on the willingness of the farmers
to sell their grain on such terms.

The returns from last weeks
elections are the basis for some
strange predictions. The city Of
Cleveland, Ohio, elected q demo-
cratic mayor for the fourth time in
succession. Sec. Taft's home is in
Ohio, therefore the wise ones cay
Sec. Taft can not be nominated for
president. Tammany won out in
the city election of New York. Re.
sult-Gov. Hughes is dead one,
Root is uprooted and Pres. Roose-
welt, who also lives in New York
state, is the only republican candi-
date who can hope to win the nom-
ination for president. Mr.. Bryan's
home state went strongly republi-
can, therefore Mr.. Bryan will be
the next democratic candidate for
president and can defeat any re-
publican except Pres. Roosevelt.
If any sensible person can see any
reason in such conclusions we
should like to see the reasons pre-
sented.

The present financial stringency
is causing a general discussion of
our present banking system. Paul
Landmann, receiver of the defunct
First National Bank of Scotland, !,
believes that the first requisite is
to provide greater security for de-
positors. At the present time,
with an abundance of money per
capita coined, the banks are short,
showing that the currency is being
boarded by individuals, and this
condition reveals a lack of public
confidence in our banks. There is
no lack of confidence in national
bank notes, because every note is
secured by o. S. bonds deposited
with the government and the gov
eminent guarantees the redemp-
tion of the notes. Mr.. Landmann
would extend this system to cover
individual deposits in banks. He
would require every state bank to
deposit with the state, and every
national bank to deposit with the
national government, real estate Or
other approved securities sufficient
to cover all deposits carried by
said banks. These securities would
be held by the state or national
government in trust, to secure the
payment of all depositors. The
present banking system is based
largely upon confidence and our
experience shows that this conf
dence is not strong enough to at
tract the money of the individuals
and thus through the banks keep it
in circulation. The plan of Mr..
Landmann would place the system
on basis of actual value, remove
all possibility of loss through bank
failures, increase the business of
the banks, do away with reckless
speculation by irresponsible bank
ers and benefit the public.

ing his policy he declares himse {
in favor of the denomination of
Pres. Roosevelt if he will accept,
and if not, for Sec. Taft. For T..
S. senator he favors the reelection
of Sen. Kittredge. A commendabe
record of eight years in congress,
together with the reputation of be-
ing one of the most effectual mem :
bers of that body in transacting
business before the departments
should bring him hearty support

The friends of Senator Kittredge
seem to think that it is an awful
thingfor the insurgent press Of the
state to show up the public record
of Senator Kittredge. Mitchell
Clarion.
The public record of Sen. Kiitttt- Kit
redge is just exactly what his
friends desire to have shown. His
enemies have made few weak eff
forts to criticise his record, but
every "charge" when shown up
adds to his strength. They charg-
ed him with voting against the
seating of Reed moot, the Nor
mon senator from Utah, but the
people say he did right. They
charged him with opposing the
railroad rate bill, but the senate
records show that he gave it hearty
support. They charged him with
opposing the plans of the admins
tration on the Panama canal His
friends are proud to admit that it
was largely through his efforts that
the first plans of the administra-
tion to adopt the Nicaragua route
were changed and the Panama
route accepted; that he favored
the sea level type of canal in pref
erence to the lock system, and be-
lieve that time will prove the wis
dom of his choice; yet when the
senate decided to adopt the latter
type he gave the project such able
and hearty support that he has
been made chairman of the senate
Panama committee. They charge
him with opposing the contirma-
ton of Bristol whom the president
had appointed as q. S. attorney
for Oregon. The facts are that af-
ter the president had recommend
ed Bristol it was learned that he
was traitor,-that he had offered
In writing to sell out his client and
for certain sum cf money to per-
nit an important case to drift into
default. This evidence was brought
before the judiciary committee OF
which Sen. Kittredge was a mem
ber, and the committee very prop
erly reported adversely on the APP
pointment. They charged Kit
redge with being Incorporation at
torney, yet it is shown that while
he has frequently acted as counsel
in special cases, both for and
against large corporations in i'm
portant cases, he has never for a
single day been employed as sal
aried attorney for any corporation,
while his opponent resigned a posi-
tion as salaried attorney for the
Northwestern railroad company in
order to run for governor. We
mention this latter fact, not be,
cause it reflects IN the least upon
his opponent, but simply to show
the Inconsistency of the charge
against Sen. Kittredge. In fact
every charge that has been brought
against the public record of Sen,
Kittredge has been exploded like a
bubble, and his accusers have been
forced to resort to glittering gener.
alities and to such dignifed argu.

We are told again that the ruin
