economy Of the new lamp lies In the

nation. 1t, is stated that even where
the electric lighting companies do not
lower their prices on the current con-
snmed, the new lamps will be cheaper
because OF their lower current con-
sumption, to the amount OF light which
they produce, saving estimated at
not less than 25 per cent
OFFICIALS OF the Passenger and Power

washington. D. c.. May IS.
The facility with which the Repub-
Leans can adapt themselves to Domo-
cratic ideas and can adopt Democratic
suggestions and label them pure Re-
publican doctrines are abundantly Illus
trated in the case OF Representative
Ollie James, OF Kentucky, and the prop
osition to pay interest on government
deposits In national banks. sir. James
made a speech in the Fifty-cighth Con-
gress advocating Legislation requiring
national banks to pay interest on de-
posts OF government money.
And again In the Fifty ninth Con-
sress Mr.. James took the same position,
which received the general support OF
the Democrats OF the House. He urged
that the Aldrlch bill, passed two years
ago, authorized receipts of customs
houses to be transferred directly to
local banks instead OF to the treasury.
and thence back to the banks, be
amended SO as to provide that the
banks should pay interest ON these
funds. as well as all others deposited
with them by the government.
The Republicans OF the House actu-
ally made fun OF Mr. James's amend
lment, and 1t was voted down over
iwhelmingiy.
Congress is about to enact q currency
law which will provide that the banks
shall pay interest upon ali deposits of
government funds. The author of this
provision was Senator Nelson, OF Min
nesota. who proposed 1t on the floor of
the Senate while the Aldrich bill was
under discussion. Senator Hopkins, OF
Illinois opposed the amendment, as did
a few other Republican Senator's but
1t became evident after some debate
that the amendment was so strong that
Senator Aldrich, in charge of the bill.
agreed to accept 1t, and 1t was added
to his measure.
The modified vreeland bill, which
the Republicans have decided shall BIZ
enacted into law. contains this pro.
vision requiring that interest be paid
on government deposits in nationa,
banks.
This remarkable eclectism OF the
Republican party has become a feature
OF the G. o. P. in latter years. The
adoption of the slogan OF tariff revision
Is another illustration OF the tendency
OF the party to help itself to popular
doctrines. without regard to whethe,
the principles back OF such policies IS
Democratic or Republican. 1t is I;
good way to get votes.
