CampaiEn of Education.

In the great battle of 1896 the Re
publican party again stood for the
maintenance Of the integrity of the na-
ton. The fight was against odds pro-
duced by a great industrial depression
and against the most sophistical argu-
ments. The Republican party main
tanned a campaign of education among
the wage-earners and the farmers.

POSTAL SAYINGS Banks
Machinery of Congress Already
Started for Postal Savings
Bank Law.
Safe and Sane Plan for the Con-
venience of the People and the
Encouragement of Thrift.

I'VE favor the establishment of a
postal savings bank system for the con-
yenience of the people and the encour-
agement of thrift"
This is the declaration of the Repub-
lican national platform, and postal say
ings banks will without doubt be au-
thorized by law and established as a
part of our financial system by the
action of Congress at its coming ses-
sion, which will be convened in Decem-
ber. Indeed, much has already been
accomplished towards the enactment Of
this law. Al the last session of Con-
gress bill was carefully prepared
which met with the approval of the
Postmaster General, and was reported
upon favorably by the Senate Commit
tee on Post Offices and Post Roads
This bill is now on the Senate calendar
and can be acted upon as soon as Con-
gress is convened.
The scope of the proposed law is set
forth in the committee report, which is
in part as follows:
Weekly Watertown leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1908-1909, 1908-09-25
Postal Savings Banks Needed.

In certain parts of our country say
ings institutions are sufficiently numer-
GUS to accommodate the people, but
such areas are quite limited being con-
fined to New England and New York
II is alleged that by reason of the num-
Der and location of savings banks there
is one savings account to every two Of
the population of New England, where
us i'll al the country outside New En-
gland and New York the average is
only one savings account to every 157
Of the population. Taking such figures
to be approximately correct and recog-
nizing the fact that the people of all
sections of this country are pretty
much the same in habits, inclinations,
and purposes. it must be obvious to the
most casual observer that the people
Of the South the Middle West, and the
West do not save their earnings as do
those Of New England from the mere
want of secure places in which deposits
may be made.
To those who feel inclined to believe
that the establishment of postal saw
ings repositories will involve an ele-
ment of paternalism it seems quite suf-
ficient to suggest that the machinery Of
the Postoffice Department is now in ex-
istence and will continue to exist with
out diminution Of expense whether
such repositories are created or not
and that the establishment of these
repositories for the benefit of the
people will not involve one farthing of
loss to the Post-Ofice Department, but
will probably, on the contrary, prove
more than self-sustaining. Very slight
computation will clearly demonstrate
that the postal savings depositors can
not burden the Post-Office Department
with any additional deficiency.

Committee Report.

Committee Report.
The purpose of this bill is to place
at the disposal of people of small
means the machinery of the Postoilice
Department to aid and encourage them
to save their earnings. The subject of
postal savings banks or repositories is
not new in this country and it may be
truly said to be quite familiar to the
people of Europe and the British colon
les. The propriety of establishing
postal savings banks became the sub
ject of discussion in England as early
as 1907. Every objection to such use
of the pOStOffice facilities urged in this
country was vigorously pressed in the
long-continued discussion of the subject
in England.
For over fifty years private savings
institutions waged bitter opposition to
the growing sentiment in favor of postal
savings banks, but notwithstanding
such opposition in 1861 an act of Par
lament was passed entitled An act
to grant additional facilities for de-
posting small savings with the security
of the government for the due repay
ment thereof" That the alarm of pri-
vate institutions was i'll founded is
amply proven by the recorded fact that
the private savings banks increased
their capital by more than ten millions
of dollars in the first fifteen years fol-
lowing the establishment Of postal say
ingS institutions.
That the postal savings institutions
proved successful is satisfactorily at
tested by the fact that no backward
step has ever been taken in England on
this subject and by the further fact
that III rapid succession the lead Of
England was taken by other countries
The primary purpose of these insti-
tutions is to encourage thrift and a
saving disposition among the people of
small means by placing at their dis
posal in every part of the country
ready facilities for the depositing Of
small sums with absolute assurance of
repayment on demand with low rate

HOLDING OFFICE.
Says Mir. Bryan, Is Not the Most
 Essential Thing.

Lincoln, Neb, Nov. 4.-While not caring to discuss the political effect of the democratic victory in his home state, or analyze the causes, Wm. J. Bryan in an informal talk this afternoon to a number of friends who called on him expressed his pleasure at the result in Nebraska and the satisfaction it afforded him to learn of the election of so many personal and political friends.
 T hope" said he. T have convinced my friends that running for office has only been an incident in my work. My heart has never been set on holding of flee. but want to do certain work, and it looked as though the presidency might offer the opportunity to do that work. I am sure that in private life. I can have the chance to do some good.
 "One IS not required to hold office in order to do big things; one is simply required to do those things within his reach and that much is within reach of each of Es.
 Personally I shall find as much joy in being out of office, as I would to be in office. I hope still to be of in- fluence to bring about needed re- forms"
 The defeat he suffered yesterday did not weigh heavily upon Mir. Bryan He was one of the most cheerful of those at his home and laughed and ioked good naturedly with his wis., itors.

Tokio, Nov. 4.-Japanese newspa- pers today all contain editorials com menting on the result of the election in the United States. Kokumin which credited with representing the views of Premier Katsura, says:
 ''The world must be congratulated on the election of Judge Taft who because of his world wide eXperi- ence. will probably prove to be the ablest president America has ever elected"
 Hi-Ji-Ji-Asisi. publishing a bulle- tin service giving the latest American election returns, comments similarly
 Hochis, an opposition paper, dis cussed Judge Taft at length in a laudatory character sketch, and says: "The election of Taft means peace, righteousness of government and rec ognition by the people of the United States of the value of policies in- augurated by Roosevelt

Washington, Nov. 4-The present indications are that the republicans will have about two-thirds majority in the United States senate as a result of yesterdays election. or virtually the same as at present Of the ninety two members of that body sixty-one are held over leaving only thirty places to fill. Of these nineteen are republicans and twelve democrats Alabama. Arkansas, Louisiana and Maryland already have chosen demo- crats and Kentucky and Vermont, re- publicans The other senators of whom successors are to be elected are:
 Republicans-Alli of Iowa who will be succeeded by a republican, An keney of Washington Brandegee of Connecticut, Gallinger of New Hamp- shire Hansborough of North Dakota, Hepburn of Idaho. Hopkins of Illinois. Kittridge of South Dakota, Long of Kansas, Penrose of Pennsylvania, Per kins of California, Platt of New York Smoot of Utah and Stevenson of Wis consin.

NO APOLOGIES TO MAKE
It Was a Magnificent Fight, He Says--So Roosevelt Thinks of the Result of It. How It Strikes Friends In Foreign Parts.

New York, Nov. 4.-Declaring that the democratic party was more united today than it has been in many years and that Bryan was defeated by what he claims was misrepresentation to the effect that his election would have hurt business interests, Chairman Mack of the democratic national committee, this afternoon issued a statement in which he announced extensive plans to advance the party's interest during the next four years.
 Mack's statement follows: There is not much for me to say, and no apolo- gies to make relative to the victory of the republican party. Bryan made the most magnificent fight ever waged by candidate. His party was made the victim of misrepresentation that demo- cratic success would retard business interests in the country. That was an argument without foundation.
 Notwithstanding yesterdays defeat, the democratic party stands more unit ed today than it has in many years and in union lies its strength in the future.
 Tt is my intention to continue the headquarters in Buffalo and Washing ton for the next four years to keep in touch with the leaders of all states and to promulgate democratic principles and democratic thought by printing lit- erature to aid the leaders oss the party in fighting high tariff. which in all probability. the republicans will con tinue, notwithstanding their promises to revise it.
 q am supported in this by members of the national committee. state chair men and other leaders all over the country.
 Tn his own state, Nebraska, where he is best known, Bryan was victorius. While it IS true he met with defeat in the nation. Ee did so as the candidate his party supported by six or seven million of his countrymen who voted for him and the principles he so splen- didly espoused and with the respect and admiration of them"

North Carolina. All of these will be succeeded by democrats. The only senatorships remaining in doubt are those of Ohio, Indiana and Oregon which are now represented by For aller Hemenway and Fulton, all repub- licans, and Colorado, Missouri and Ne vada, represented by Teller, Stone and Newlands, democrats.
 Governor Cummins of Iowa is about to realize his ambition to become a senator from that state. He has many admirers in Washington and his entry upon the scene of national politics will be observed with keen interest
 If Indiana should send a democrat in place of Hemenway it is supposed here that John w. Kern the defeated vice presidential candidate will. be chosen and that he will be the first democrat to occupy a senatorial seat from In diana since 1898 when David Turpie surrendered the office to Senator Bev- eridge.
 Final figures regarding the result in the house will probably show little change in numbers on the respective sides but there will be considerable shifting in the personnel of that body A number of surprises have already been ordered and probably the most pronounced was the defeat of Repre- sentative Hepburn of the Eighth Iowa district
 Representatives elected in addition to those previously announced are: First Washington, Wm. Humphrey, repubn- can; second, Washington, F. w Cush- man, republican,; third, Washington, M. c. POindeXter, republican.

''The part that labor took compelled the discussion to be devoted almost exclusively to the labor questions, lab or movement and the principles of right, justice and humanity upon which their philosophy and demands are based. Even though disappointed with the result, there is no loss of faith or confidence in the justice of labor, de- mands and their successful achieve ment by action consistent, insistent and persistent. This will achieve for the toffers the triumph of the cause of lab or and the cause of human justice"

Smith. Cameron.


 The foregoing are the figures made up yesterday by Chairman Hoval A. Smith and Secretary George U. Young of the territorial republican committee on such returns as had been received. MT. Smiths figures relate to the counties in the southern portion of the territory and Mir. Young's to the counties of the central and northern parts.
 Not all the returns are in yet and MT. Young states that while he does not believe the outstanding figures will reduce the figures he has made up, he still stands by his estimate of the night before that Cameron's plu- rality would exceed 600.
 In the table, no account is taken of Gila county for the reason that it is believed that neither candi- date will receive a plurality of vital importance. Though yesterday morn ing the republican management was willing to concede the county to Smith by as much as 150, reports later in the day indicated that those figures might be wiped out entirely. The Republicans latest information from Gila last night said that with only five precincts to hear from Smith had a lead of 25. The five are presumably in the TOnto country where the vote is very light.
 It was also claimed yesterday morning that an unexpected slump in Yuma had given Smith a majority there and at one time it was put as high as 125. The Parker country had not been heard from, but later that reduced the figures to an esti- mated plurality for Smith of 25.
 The Yavapai plurality is undoubt-

Taft's labors in closes alliance with President Roosevelt"
 The completeness of the republican victory in the United States yester- day was hailed on the stock eX- change today with a great deal of satisfaction as calculated to have an effect on the markets here and to give additional impetus to the all ready improving conditions.

NEBRASKA DID WELL
 BY HER FAV0R|TE SON
Very Few Republicans Survived the Wreck in That State.

Lincoln. Neb.. Nov. 4.-Returns of Tuesdays election are sufficiently definite to confirm and emphasize the first report that the democrats won {. sweeping victory in Nebraska Bryan will have a plurality of not less than 10000, and Shellenberger democrat. for governor, and the re- maihder of the democratic state tick ct will have scarcely 1000 less.
 Four and probably five of Ne braska's six congressman are demo- crats, with only one republican, Hinshaw, escaping defeat.
 Of the 133 senators and repre- sentatives elected, only IS are re- publicans.
