MASKER ASSA|LS
KENNY FOR ATTACK
OAJUDGE RAYMOND
Accuses %Assemblyman of "Sur-
render of independence to
Bob Davis Last Year"
To the Editor of the Evening Star:

Sir-I desire to reply to the letter OF
Edward Kenny, which was published
in the Sunday Call of August 16, 1908
| was also present at Judge Raymond's
debut on Tuesday evening. | lid not see
Mr.. Kenny or the celebrated Individual
and others whom Mr.. Kenny saw; but /
did see such highly honorable citizens
of Newark as r. c. Jenkinson, Cort-
land Parker, jr, Robert l.. Ross. be-
sides many other gentlemen of Newark.
Judge Raymond properly received
overwhelming applause when he arose
to begin his speech, and l cannot agree
with Mr.. Kenny when he says that Mr..
Raymond sidestepped the issues. Mr.,
Raymond made a perfectly frank and
fair statement of his position on the
utilities bill. He said If it was necessary,
in order to make the utilities commits
sion authoritative and effective to give
the power to regulate rates, he would
favor it. He said he wished to investi-
gate the matter to make up his mind,
and that he did not wish to do so hur-
riedly.
l have no doubt hat the majority of
the voters Of this county believed
Judge Raymond and that they are will
ing to leave the matter to his judgment
and discretion. as many matters must
Of necessity be left to the discretion of
a Senator.
Judge Raymond needs to use no cloud
for any issue. A person only has to
meet him, to talk to him, to thoroughly
convince themselves that Tom Raymond
fears no man., party or corporation.
Ton Raymond is no boss's fgurehead.
Mr.. Kenny, you say Mr.. Raymond is
the Republican boss's figurehead for the
Public Service. Prove it! Prove it!
l know that Judge Raymond has long
desired the position of Senator from
Essex County. / know that he is a
candidate of his w wish and that
he is no mans tool 1 think that charges
such as Mr.. Kenny has the
ton to make should be verified or that
MIR. Kenny should stand condemned be-
fore the people of this county as a
scandalmonger.
/ know, and 50 does everybody who
knows Judge Raymond, that he is above
making any deal to get something
good" as Mr.. Kenny says. Judge Ray
mond is fighting a fair fight with SEN
ator Colby, and whatever unfairness
entered into his campaign comes
from such persons as Mr.. Kenny and
the New Idea people. 1t is hardly to
be expected that Judge Raymond
would recognize Mr.. Kenny, as the in
solent remarks contained in his letter
are absolutely groundless and false.
It is understood by many thai Mr..
Kenny surrendered his independence to
Bob Davis last year when he ran for
Assembly from Hudson county, and for
reason he "a defeated by a young
man when he last RAJ for Mayor of
East Newark, and I feel that the good
people of East Newark will defeat him
again. They do not want men like Mr..
for Mayor.

INITIATION IN THE SENATE
Inclination to Permit the Banks to
Increase the Circulation to
Limit of Resources.

Washington, Jan. with the ap-
proach of the reconvening of congress
there is renewed talk of financial legiS-
lation. The house and senate committee
will both resume sittings on the subject
and it now looks as if there might be
something of a rivalry between the two
committees as to which will present a
bill.
While the house committee is appar-
emily inclined to what is known as the
asset currency, the senate committee is
proceeding on the theory that only a
very limited list hof securities should be
accepted for the increased issue to be
provided for in the bill.
So far there has been no agreement
as to the percentage of increase in the
volume of the currency, but the inclina-
ton of senators seems to be to permit
as large an augmentation as the condi-
lions of the banks justify.
Senator Bailey expressed the opinion
today that If the bill to be suggested by
members reasonably ap-
the demands of the democrats,
If will be permitted to pass without eX-
tended opposition. He declined to give
his view of what its character should
be

UNABLE TO GET AN OPINION
Oklahoma National Banks Want to
Get in Under the New Guar
anty Law

Washington, Jan 1.-The rights ana
privileges of national banks of Oklahoma
under the recent law of that state pro
viding for the guaranty of deposits in
banks within the state, form the subject
of A statement by the comptroller of the
currency today. He refers to a previous
attempt upon his part to obtain an Opln-
ion from the attorney general as 10 the
legal right of national banks to avail
themselves of the law, which officer, he
saws declined to render an opinion, be-
cause at the time the question was SUD-
United TIE law had not been enacted
The comptroller states that before an
Official opinion can be obtained it will
be necessary for some national bank IN
Oklahoma TO make application in writing
TO the state banking board for permission
10 receive for its depOsitOrs the prOtec-
ton of the depOsitOrs' guaranty fund, and
for the comptroller to be formally re-
ouired 10 agree with the state banking
board and bank commissioner upon the
terms and conditions under which the ap-
plfcation may be sustained.
When the question comes before the Of
ficer in this form, the comptroller said,
he will again refer 1t to the attorney gen.
eral for an opinion as TO his right TO en-
ter into an agreement with the bank COM
missioner and the state banking board
providing for terms and conditions upon
which national banks may accept the
terms and be subject to the liabilities of
this law.

SCURVY ADDS TO
THEIR MISERY
People of Province of Erivan,
ASiatiC Russia, Perishing
From Famine.

St. Petersburg, Jan. "A dispatch re-
ceived here from Tiflis says scurvy has
broken out among the native population
in the province of Erivan, which, like
other sections of the Caucasus, suffered
severely in 1907 from a poor harvest and
resultant famine. Measures to send in
food and to afford medical relief are be
ing taken, and an endeavor win be made
to use a portion of the dumas famine
appropriation for this section. although
this money was voted exclusively for re-
lief work in the provinces of European
Russia
The imperial council has been convened
in special meeting for Jan. to pass an
appropriation, which. after receiving the
approval of the emperor, will at once be
available for relief.
The crop outlook in European Russia
has grown steadily worse lately on &C
count of the long spell of cold weather
with no snow. Winter crops have been
lost. The officials of the agricultural
department in the ministry of interior
are becoming more downcast every day as
they realize the necessity of increasing
appropriations for the relief of the peO-

Provo, Utah, Jan. despite the fact
that two important educators, the enc
from the east and the other from the
west, were here to address the four
teenth annual convention of the Utah
Teachers association, it remained fer
Governor John c. Cutler to spring the
sensation of the entire convention In
his speech in the Provo tabernacle. The
sensation was two-fold. First, an at
tack on the morals of the younger gen.
Grafton with special reference to the in
delicacy of the subject which made it
much more indicate; and second, an
attack on a local newspaper decidedly
at variance with the meaning and pur-
poses of the convention.
City in Gay Attire.
The trains on the Rio Grande West
ern during the morning brought the
crowd down. and the city, although
prepared for a large thrOng, is tonight
filled to overlooking. The streets are
gay with strings of lights, and bunting
is displayed on every hand. Many OF
the houses and business places have
cards out announcing that they are
open for the teachers to come in and
rest, and the Commercial club, the
EIks' club and other places have=sbeen
fitted up as writing rooms and rest
places for them. An excursion has
been arranged for Provo canyon tOmOr-
row afternoon, and a trainload of en-
thusiastic sightseers will leave Provo
at o'clock TO take in the sights of the
canyon and examine the Telluride
Power plant at Olmstead.
II Looks Like briggs.
The all-important topic of discussion
tonight is the annual election of Off
GERS, which is to take place tomorrow

pretty certain that the chief Office VIII

LOOKS BAD FOR tAGEL SON
Indications That the Surveyor Gen
eral of Idaho Will Soon Be
Minus His Official Head.
(Special Id Heraldl.

Washington, d. c., Jan. Final ac-
ton on the case of Surveyor General
Eagelson of Idaho, is expected within
a short time. Today Secretary Gar
field wrote a letter to the president re-
garding the matter but declined to dis
cuss it's contents. Land Commissioners
Ballinger would give no intimation of
what was going on further than to re-
mark that the case was practically set
tied. 1t is known by those interested
that Eagelson's answers to the charges
are far from satisfactory and
this fact, coupled with the fact that
Garfield now lays the matter before the
president indicates that Eagelson's re-
fusaI to submit his resignation as dir
ected more than a month ago consti-
tutes characterization.

BELIEVES ROOSEVELT SHOULD BUTTON
UP HIS MOUTH DURING PRESENT YEAR

ty, shattering public opinion and conf
dence. curtailing commerce, checking
investment, reducing alike the earnings
of capital and the employment of labor,
it is this year 1908.
The most serious question to be de-
termined at this session, is the settle
ment of the transportation problem of
Massachusetts.
Existing law is inadequate TO deal
with public control of railroads. The
Massachusetts Railroad commission. the
pioneer in state control of public ser
vice corporations, should be clothed with
ample power. 1t should at least be
given the same control of railroads
within Massachusetts that is, given TO
the Interstate Commerce commission in
regard to roads doing an interstate
business.

ASIATIC IMMIGRATION RECOGNIZED
AS SERIOUS MENACE BY GREAT BRITAIN

Japan's willingness substantially to re-

anti-Japanese prejudice on the Pacific
coast.
It is recognized that the race question
is more serious for Great Britain than
for America for the Indians are British
subjects and the Japanese are her allies.

Indians who have refused TO register,
other than to decline to renew the trad
