The most interesting point in the dis

Postal Card Vote.
Mr.. Smith, calling Mr.. Waldron to
the chair, gave reasons for the proposed
postal card vote. The vote was intend
ed to be taken from taxpayers, not nee
essarily even citizens of the United
States, but those who used the post
office. Supporting the argument for
caution in the whole matter he in
stanced the movement some time ago
against free sugar from the Philippines,
which it was to be feared may have
produced some antagonistic feeling in
the mind of him who is, TO be the
President of the United States.
Mr.. Maefarlane moved and Mr.. Buch-
ly seconded the adoption of the recon-
incubation for postal card vote.
Mr.. White suggested the issuance of
voting card in Japanese. Several
voices objected to the proposal. Mr..
Dohrmann suggested that Japanese
translatioks%ight be placed on the Eng
lisl Young cie matter was left to the

WILSON TO BANKERS
HEAD OF PRINCETON U. SAYS
FINANClERS MUST ADVERTISE.
SEEK SMALL BUSINESS, He ADVISES
Cooperation Of Capital With the Peo-
pie Is Declared Necessary
for Success.

Denver, Colo.-Dr. Woodrow vii
son, president of Princeton Univer-
sity, one of the leading economists of
the day, in his address before the
members of the American Bankers
Association, in convention Wednesday
said, among other things, that capital
must seek voluntary cooperation with
the people, and that instead of the
banks never advertising, as formerly
was the case, they now eagerly seek
small business as we'll as big.
The session Wednesday was devoted
entirely to addresses by prominent
bankers and political economists.
The attitude of the bankers in op-
position to both the proposed postal
savings bank and the guarantee of
bank deposits, which was clearly
shown in the meetings of the savings
bank and trust company sections Mon
day and Tuesday, was emphasized
Wednesday when Col. j.. D. Powers,
president of the association denounced
the Dank guaranty plan as dangerous.
President Walker OF the Canadian
Bank of Commerce, Toronto, was an
other speaker. The reports of Secre-
tary Farnsworth and President Pier
SOL of the Executive Council were
cad.
Since the preliminary sessions be-
gan Monday the bankers have been
discussing nothing among themselves
but these two propositions, and it is
expected that before Thursday night
they will take a vote on them. That
the result will be overwhelmingly
against both proposed laws seems Ger
tain.
The convention met in the Audito-
rum, where the democratic conven-
ton was held.

Concludes Tour of Opponents Home
State With Speech at Omaha.

Lincoln, Nebraska.-William X.
Taft, following an enthusiastic recep-
ton in Lincoln Wednesday, started
Thursday morning on his final days
itinerary in his opponents home state
and will conclude at Omaha, where a
monster demonstration has been
planned.
Taft Wednesday night not only in
dorsed President Roosevelt's position
on the question of the publicity Of
campaign contributions; but defended
it with arguments calculated to estab-
fish that position as sound from the
standpoint of public coed.
Mr.. Taft made II speeches in Ne
braska before reaching Lincoln ana
five speeches in that city. Immense
crowds greeted him at all points.

BRYAN cRITlclsEs TAFT.
Issues Statement on Republican View
of Publishing Contributions.

Lincoln, MISUNDERSTANDING that
every disinterested voter knows
that large contributions have been
used to secure mortgages upon Off
Gals" William j. Bryan Thursday
night issued at Fairview a statement
criticizing the adoption by ". H. Taft
his Republican opponent, of President
RooseVelt's announced view on the
subject of the publicity of campaign
contributions.
Mr.. Taft" says Mr.. Bryan makes
the charge the president does-the
astounding c~harge-that the voters
are so liable TO be misled that the
knowledge las to the amounts and
sources of campaign contributions
must be kept from them"
The Democratic nominee then adds.
Il insist that this is an insult to the
intelligence of the voter, and it does
little credit to Mr.. Taft's Judgment
of the men TO whom he is making his
appeal"

b. TAFT FEELS CONFIDENT.
Bases His Belief on Reception In
States He Has Traversed.

Omaha, Nebraska.-"I am going
to be elected" This statement made
Thursday night by w. H. Taft sums
up in a word what the candidate
thinks of the effect of his speech max.
ing tour thus far. The belief is based.
Mr.. Taft explained, ION the manner OF
his reception in states thus far tray
ersed in which there was reported to
De OBJECTIONS among the Republican
ranks. AS 10 the national ticket, Mr..
Taft now believes that there is no
reason to doubt but that the Republi-
a party will hold its own and should
this prove the case, MI. Taft says
there is DO doubt that he will get the
electoral vote of Wisconsin, Mime
sofa, the Kakotas, Iowa and Nsbraska
the states as to which the aisaffec-
ton was supposed to exist.

EXPLORERS SAVED
OIL, MATCHES AND FOOD REACH
DR.. ANDERsoN'S PARTY.
WAS A BAD REGION FOR GAM
Storm That Makes Rescue Possibls
Prevents PeriIous Trip to
North.

New York, n. Y.-That a repetS
ton of the fatal Hubbard expedition
into Labrador barely was averted in
the Arctic regions bordering the mouth
Of the Mackenzie river, Alaska, last
month, became known Thursday, when
three letters from Vilhjahlm Stefans-
son and DR.. X. M. Anderson, leaders
ofthe Alaska-Arctic chronological ex-
petition of the American Museum of
Natural History, were received by
the museum authorities.
The first of the three letters was
dated August IL. and told of priva-
ton and lack of supplies on Herschei
island in the Arctic ocean. Whaling
ships that the explorers had expect
ed to carry them to Cape Rathhurst
had been unable to reach them on
account of ice foes. and food and
matches were running low.
In an open whaleboat and a native
skinboat, the two white men, with a
few native followers, were about TO
start for Point Barrow in hopes OF
getting supplies.
The next letter, dated August 2S,
told Of the arrival at Point Barrow,
but reported that the expected food
and supplies could not be had. Win.
ter was shutting in, the thermometer
was falling daily and the explorers
were in danger of being hemmed IN
by the ice.
The region is a bad n for game,
and but for an occurrence, r%ecounted
in the third letter, the men would
doubtless have persisted before the
spring thaw, which would have ena.
bled them to proceed to a base 81
supplies in their little craft.

FORAKER COURTS INQUIRY.
Ohio Senator Says If He Has Violated
Law He Will Accept the Penalty.

Cincinnati, Ohio.-United States
Senator Joseph B. Foraker in a state
ment given out for publication de-
clares If he has violated any law then
the penalty should be invoked upon
him. The questions to be considered
he says, are, first, whether he was
employed Illegally, and secondly,
whether 1t had any relation to his du.
ties as senator or influenced him in
any manner in regard thereto.
He claims to have answered these
points fully and clearly already. The
question of compensation, he says,
he does not feel inclined to discuss
with Mr.. Hearst.

chase's chaise to Be Presented to the
Government.

still in good state of preservation. for
in those olden times vehicles and
other things were constructed solidly
and to withstand the ravages of time,
like the tabled parsons one-hoss
shay"
In 1862 the old coach was said to be
the handsomest equipage in Washing
ton. 1t transported through the
streets the reigning society queen of
that time, the daughter of Salmon P.
Chase, or, as she is remembered, Mrs.
Kate Chase Sprague.
The vehicle is quaint and bulky and
sadly out of date. But it bears many
traces of departed elegance. A we'll
worn footboard in its rear was for the
liveried footmen in their buff and
green suits. They held ON by two
thick strap handles.
The front box seat for the driver is
draped like that of a hearse of to-day.
The interior of the coach Is lined with
heavy lilac satin, which is likewise
we'll preserved. The carriage has a
seating capacity for six people.
Chase, when secretary of the treas
ury in 1851, rode in the coach back
and forth from his office. Many dis
tinguished men of that time on oc-
casions rode with him. 1t is related
that no less a parsonage than Abra-
ham Lincoln, who had an aversion to
carriages, rode with Chase in the old
coach more than once.
1t has much the appearance of more
ancient colonial coaches, and has a
platform in the rear for trunks and
other luggage. The coat of arms of
Rhole Island was em~blazoned on the
doors by order of Mrs. Kate Chase
Sprague, in honor of her husbands
state. The design is still bright and
well preserved. The doors have inside
ivory handles, with silver handles on
the outside and also silver axle caps.
Mr. Young's father got the coach in
exchange for a more modern vehicle
from Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague after
her divorce from Sprague, when she
had resumed the name of Chase.
The carriage is hung with steel
springs and bears other marks of the
a~nte-bellum days. Its value now is as
a relic.
