The depositors Of the wrecked
State Bank and Trust company OF
Nevada, who have been told that they
ara to receive about forty cents on
the dollar, are quite likely to view
with great favor Bryan's idea OF a
guaranty of bank deposits. The total
mount of the deposits in this institu-
ton IL S1.OsO,OOO.
The guaranty plan seems TO be gain
ing rapidly in favor. Although the
pls nix in the National Democratic plat
form regarding guaranty Of deposits
relates only to national banks, for
the reason that the national govern
ment has no control over state banks
And as q result Of the agitation many
states are likely to follow the exam
pie Of Oklahama, whose experience
with the new plan has Illus far been
highly satisfactory.

THE QUESTION WHETHER
HARTMAN SAVED HEARe1

The Hearst papers continue TO ask
Bryan questions regarding an alleged
surplus OF $3OO,OO0 in the National
Democratic campaign fund, held over
from lyO4, although the existence
OF any such balance has been posi-
lively denied. The object Of these
questions, OF course, Is to injure Bry-
an by making 1t appear that the
imaginary sum referred to was q
contribution from some secret source
1t is evident that Hearst's object
in whooping up h Independence
party and its ticket Is to do al much
harm as possible to Bryan, for OF
course there Is not a ghost OF a pos
sibility OF the election Of Hisgen.
But 1t might be in order for some
OF Bryan's friends to ask Hearst q few
questions. He might be querried, for
instance, regarding the charge made
long ago by the New York World, that
ut the time when Hearst was des-
perately embarrassed in a financial
way, Il. IL. Hartman came to his r.
lief by investing in notes or bonds
secured by liens Of Hearst's news
paper property. 1t has been remark
ed since that the Hearst papers have
exhibited a complete reversal OF their
former policy Of hostility to Harri-
man, and his railroad interests.
1t certainly does appear that for
some reason or other the Hearst pa
pers have long been engaged In doing
dirty work for Hartman, and 1t IL
naturally assumed that there is some
substantial reason for it.-Bee.

piah county near Barlow in 1872. He
lived and worked on his fathers farm
until he attained the age of 81. He
attended the common schools Of the
county and completed his high school
course at Union church, and after
ward attended the A. & M. College at
Starkville. After completing his lit
erary course he attended the Kent
Law School in Chicago and the Law
Department of the University of Mis-
sissippi graduating with distinction in
both institutions
In 1899 he began the practice Of law
in Fayette, Jefferson county, and for
five and a half years was partner with
Judge Hicks, chancellor Of the 9TH
chancery district. He was attorney
for the Board Of Supervisors Of JEFF
ferson county for five and half years.
In 1902 he was elected without oppo-
sition to the Mississippi state senate
from Jefferson and Claiborne counties
to succeed Hon. w. d. Torrey.
Last year he moved to Brookhaven
whore he has won an enviable reputa-
ton as lawyer and has host OF
friends there. Mr.. Shelton is strong
advocate of the principles held by the
Farmers Union of Mississippi and
has done efficient work in that organi-
cation. He has all Of those elements
of character that commend him to the
masses of the people. A genial ma
ture, a strong believer in right, well
informed on all the social and eco
nomic problems of the state, he would
make our district splendid represen-
tative in the halls of congress-"
From our personal acquaintance
with Mr.. Shelton We can indorse the
above. He is thoroughly equipped in
every way for the position and we
heartily commend him to the consid-
