Bad News For Vice President Fairbanks
1t has been generally assumed that
rs matter of course everybody In In
diana Is for Vice President Fairbanks
for president, but the latest news from
Hoosierdom seems to contradict that
theory. 1t Is said that Senator Beyer-
idge is secretly incubating a boom OF
his own and that Ex-Governor Durbin
is DESTROYS OF seeing the presidential
nomination 60 elsewhither, SO that the
may himself capture the vice presiden-
tial nomination. OF course Hon. Harry
8. New, chairman of the Republican
national committee, Is not enamored Of
the Hon. Charles Warren. Tile In
lianapolis Sun shows signs Of kicking
out Of the traces, and so 1t goes. Folks
who can remember for tyenty-seven
years back will perhaps recall the why
and wherefore of John Sherman's fall
ure to capture. the presidential nomina-
ton. A split or unfaithfuloO ohio dele
cation always did the work for John,
who painted for the presidency even as
the hare panteth for the water brook.

THE MONEY CORNER.

The people of Hartford and Ohio
county have heard considerable about
the money panic, but as yet They have
felt nor seen little evidence Of II here.
This has been a matter off, general
comment. Ohio county's banks are
handling the matter In splendid
manner, protecting the interests OF
their depositors and also conserving
their own welfare, which is certainly
laudable ambition. They are not
refusing to cash. depositors' checks.
They have plenty of money-some of
them more than they ever had-to
meet all demands. II they do not loan
money, this can be taken as an in-
dication that they only desire to pro-
tect the interests of depositors, by
having money ready on demand.
1t is no scary time now to depos-
it money, for it will be in safe
hands and you can get it whenever
you want it. What more could you
ash of any bank? There is no de-
probation, no demonstration.
Money as a circulating med
iunl is scarce, but this condition only
helps people to economic and save.
In this it is a valuable lesson.
There is certainly a financial pam
ic "a money corner - prevalent
throughout the country, and in some
sections it is severe, but Ohio county
people are taking the matter in way
that begets confidence, which assures
the safest conditions and the very
best results. There is no panic here

contention that the recent Republican

the power and instrumentality of the
negro vote (Which is a fact beyond

that this matter is dead issue,

that 1.-The people demand live issues"
This matter may be dead" to the
Republican, in its absolute security
of the negro vote, but it is certainly
a live issue SO long as the negro vote
controls elections. It's contention
that the Democratic party profits IN
any measure from negro suffrage, is
fallacy, pure and simple. The col
ored vote forms the controlling ele-
ment of the Republican party. we
reaffirm that without it the Repub-
licans would stand little or no chance
of electing anybody to anything. IL

Kentucky. The Hartford Republican
cannot truthfully deny-much as IL
may call the matter a dead issue
that the negro vote did it. And the
colored troops fought nobly."

The present corner of the money
market is a silent but potent plea for
bimetalllsm-a money condition which
Democratic platforms have repeatedly
contended for. There is plainly not
money enough to do the business OF
the country. This is because, in COM
pliance with Republican legislation,
great quantities of it are tied up in
Wall Street, the big city banks and
other large corporations, where the
people cannot get hold of it. Maybe
after the people have gone through a
few panics like this one, they will see
the good sense of Democratic argu-
ment in money matters.
