AN UNsoUND PROPOSAL.
Bryan's Dangerous Bank Guaranty
and It's Weak Spots.

(fTOln COlllerS weekly.
Mr. Bryan has made bank deposit
guarantee his most distinct issue Of
this campaign. He has pressed it ht rd,
and our mail is flooded with inquiries
about its soundness. No foreign gov
eminent has ever adopted it. The
countries Of the world have been busy
with banking and insurance long
time, and when an earnest but not very
thoroughly trained politician comes for
ward with revolutionary proposition
the burden Of proof lies heavily on him.
Regarding Mr.. Bryan's past record in
this field, Gov. Hughes has said:
eff all that Mr.. Bryan has favored
during the past twelve years had been
enacted into law, we should have been
overwhelmed with disaster and would
regard it as our chief business in the
future to find way of escape from
the meshes Of ill-considered legislation
in which we should have been en-
tangled. 1t is fortunate for him as
well as for us that he was defeated,
and whatever may be his present polit-
ical potentiality can be ascribed to the
fact that hitherto he has not been per-
mitted to carry out his program
That judgment is severe and will
hurt the feelings Of many of Mr..
Bryan's friends, but who can doubt it's
accuracy?
Mr.. Bryan's scheme, which he calls
guarantee, is an insurance proposition,
and it is entirely mutual in its nature.
The government does not stand back Of
it. There are no stockholders who
pledge their resources. There is moth
ing, except a certain definite and linn
tied fund. This fund is to be used to
insure risks which are not selected 1t
| is to insure all alike, good Or bad, and
all at the very same rate. The real
working of the scheme amounts to this:
the stockholders Of an Indiana bank
guarantee that the assets (Which they
are not allowed to see) of, say, an
Idaho bank are and shall continue to
be good; and that the directors of the
Idaho bank lover whom they have no
| control) shall always be men Of recti-
tude and sound judgment. Mr.. Bryan
thinks that this little idea of his will
prevent panics. In 1893 the existence
of gold fund to guarantee the pay
ment of government currency in gold
many times larger proportionately than
the deposit guarantee fund would be
was of no avail in preventing a gold
panic. In 1907 a currency and specie
reserve fund in the national banks,
equal to about IS per cent of their de-
pOsits, did not prevent one of the
most frantic currency panics in the his
tory Of the national banking system.
What reason is there to think that, in
times Of stress and uncertainty, a fund
of few millions to guarantee deposits
of $13, 0O0,OOOOOO would have any more
| reassuring effect? The scheme is worth
little or nothing as protection. 1t
would greatly increase the number Of
failures by the encouragement of reck-
less banking. 1t would not help to meet
paIics. 1t would help greatly to bring
them about.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1908-10-16
Idle workmen and Bryan.

(Beveridge at Terre Haute, Ind.)
Suppose Mr.. Bryan should be elect
ed president. Does any laborer think
that would help the rapidly recovering
business of the nation, ON which the
employment of labor depends? How
many mills would Mr.. Bryan's election
open? How many idle workingmen
would it send back to factory and mine?
Let the workingman discuss with his
family this practical question Of their
daily bread, and then vote as the in
terests of his own fireside tell him to
vote"
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1908-10-16
POLICY FRAMED
AGAINST BUSINESS

Governor Hughes at Detroit.)
81 do not regard it [bank de-
posits guaranteed as vital issue
when l contemplate other dam
gerous proposals which Mr.. Bry-
an makes. We want, before we
have a guarantee for our de-
posits, to have the deposits. A
policy which is framed against
business and that makes it diff
,ult to get deposits cannot be
helped by guarantee of de-
,osits. Already in Oklahoma ad-
7enturers are taking advantage
If the guarantee law to open
banks and entrap the unwary.
t is unfair to propose to saddle
rpon prudent and conservative
,anks the losses of imprudent
ranks over which they have no
control"

THE "DOLLAR-A-DAY" LIE.
Judge Taft Brands the Statement as
False in Burning Words.

False in Burning Words.
Judge Taft at Table Rock, Neb.)
''Now some ordinary cheap common
liar has devoted himself to the business
Of running around the country and say
ing that am in favor Of paying a Ia
boring man a dollar day and that
have said that that was enough. I was
at the head Of the Panama Canal for
four years and we pay steamshovel men
down there $3.50 month. As / figure
that out it makes a little more than a
dollar a day. Anybody that says 1
ever made that remark is liar and the
man who believes him is a fool, for
why under heaven 1 should say that for
l cannot understand, or in what con-
nection or under what circumstances"
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1908-10-16

Bryan has become distinctly and
desperately personal in his latest
speeches. His attacks upon Mr.. Roose-
welt and Mr.. Taft give warmth and
heat to the campaign, but they do not
contribute to logic and reason.-Balti-
