Suggestions that the United States
and Mexico Jointly police the Central
American countries and SO put an end
to the disorders constantly develop
ing there are being seriously discussed
Pretty nearly every other plan appears
to have failed. Even when the little
nations are brought to the point of
hxing up an agreement all round to be
good there is no guarantee against one
or another breaking the contract with
out the slightest scruple. The United
States naturally is much averse to
anything looking like Interference
with the affairs Of other countries. but
cooperation with Mexico would be an
assurance of disinterestedness and
would forestall any Latin American
objection. What Central America
needs and must have for proper politi.
cal and material development is con
tinued peace. and Uncle Sam. with
Mexico as side partner, would see that
peace was maintained

UPHELD sv GOOD IAwvsss.

In his speech of acceptance Mr.
Taft. referring to the suggestion that
trial by jury he required in all cases
of indirect contempt. says: Never
in the history of the country has there
been such an insidious attack upon
the judicial system as the proposal
TO interject jury trial between all
orders of the court made after full
hearing and the enforcement of such
orders"
But the United States senate in
June, 1896 undertook to make Just
such provision. Senator Platt of
Connecticut was the only Republican
to speak against IL. John Sherman of
Ohio. William b. Allison of Iowa. Eu-
gene Hale of Maine. Joseph B. Hawley
of Connecticut. Justin 8. Morrill, OF Yer
mont, knute Nelson of Minnesota and
Francis f. Warren Of Wyoming were
among the Republican senators pre-
sent when this bill passed Presum-
ably they voted for it. There was no
roll call. At least they did not vote
against it nor did they speak against
it,
In the senate at the time and vot
ing for this measure there were-be-
sides the distinguished Republicans
above named-such good lawyers as
David B. Hill Of New York. Senator
Villas Of Wisconsin. Senator Pugh of
ALABAMA. Senator George of Missis-
sippi. and VIM. V. Allen of Nebraska
Does any Republican believe that
John Sherman. William p. Allison. Eu-
gene Hale. Joseph B. Hawley. Justin
s. Morrill,. Knute Nelson. all distin-
guished Republicans. would either cast
their vote for or by their silence ac-
quiesce In an insidious attack upon
the judicial SYSTEM"

guaranteed deposits means thorough
supervision of banks That's just eX
actly what the people want
u is absurd To say that guaranteed
deposits would bring the whole bank
ing system of the country down "a

What does guaranteed deposits
mean? II means that the savings of
the masses shall be secured so thai
when men and women deposit thair
hard-earned money in banking insti-
tuiions. they need not worry for fear
1t will be lost through the reckless
ness and dishonesty of bank officials
The federal government demands of
these banks security for the money II
deposits. As a rule state governments
and county governments and municl-
pal governments make similar require
that depositors generally shall have
some such assurance for the safe
keeping of their wealth. we are told
by the Republican candidate for the
presidency that the adoption of such
plan would bring the whole bank
ing system of the country down to
ruin"
II Is to save the banking business
and to save the peoples money that
the plan Of guaranteed deposits Is
advocated by Democrats. II is strange
that Mr.. Taft and the big bankers
for whom he speaks can not see that
the guaranteed deposits system is alb
solutely necessary for the prevention
of panics, for the safe keeping of the
money of the masses and for the pre-
servation of the banking business in
the hands of individuals.

WITH EVERY HOPE OF SUCCESS.

In his letter of acceptance Mr.. Tart
says; If ! am elected president
shall urge upon congress, with every
hope Of success. that law be passed
requiring the filing in a federal once
of statement of the contributions
received by committees and candidates
in elections for members of congress,
and in such other elections as are con-
stitutionally within the control of con-
gress. Meantime the Republican
party by the election of New York
treasurer has subjected all its receipts
and expenditures to the compulsory
obligation of such a law"
But why with every hope Of sue
cess"
Did the letter Mr. Taft wrote to
Senator Burrows. urging the adoption
of such a law, have any effect upon
the Republican congress?
Did the recommendation Of Mr..
Roosevelt have any effect upon the
Republican congress?
The Taft letter and the Roosevelt
recommendation were given to con-
gress while presidential election
was approaching. II a Republican con-
gress would not act under those cir
cumstances with what reason does Mr..
Taft say that after the presidential
election he would urge a measure
with every hope Of success >"
The Republican party in national
convention assembled voted down q

Meantime let it be remembered that

babyishness and the sweetness prob
ally wearied him.
When Miss Van Wyck tripped on

for aid received, out Of black eyes
burning in a pale face q trife strained
and worn looking, there is no question
but that the watcher OF mems lives re-
corded the arrival ON the road ne trav

Kellen owed Miss Van Wyck to the
gods Of the public school-they led
her into the region that knew him.
She taught school At Nesqualmie, and
when she took up the birch rod there
she elevated the window blind and
noted down kellen's train as a means
o: escape. as It whirred along the
river bank by the black water and
ripped mp the valley.
When she donned the robe Of once
she did not say: Here are many little
ones to me given that l may mold
them into fine vessels as the potter
shapes the clay: and that is enough. $
No. She said: This place is lonely
! zee no young men here. What vile
wilderness"
She knew that she had to ride alone
IN the summer afternoons. and that
the birds and the squirrels chartered
horribly; and that the loneliness struck
upon her nerves and made her start At
shadows. Wherc4Ore she was very
dissatisfied.
But she fell upon the device Of 60
ing up the road to Potlace. which was
almost . town. and possessed q few
toys in the way of some women
friends and q fresh face once q year
perhaps. These flights were made
Friday evenings after the children
