Gently published, which was written
by Grover Cleveland just before his
death, we are bound to conclude
that he tried to stab the Democratic
ticket in the back. Cleveland was
given the opportunity by Morgan
eod other Republican trust mag
mates between his frat and second
terms as President to make q large
sum Of money and after that he be-
came a dangerous tool Of the Re
publican party.

Some Hot Shot.

Mr.. Bryan is firing some hot shoe
/ into the Republican leaders. In dis
cussing the question Of reforms at
| q Democratic rally at Sioux City on
Wednesday night he declared that
the republican party was not in a
position to reform anything.
"Why?" he asked. Because its
CONSPICUOUS members are connected
with the very things that need re-
form, and the Republican party
cannot prosecute the guilty without
disgracing its most prominent mem
Fbers-'' .ya,o,s

United States Government and
which is still pending. hr. Dupont
is defendant in the action, and yet
he is on the executive committee to

| and the chairman Of the speakers
bureau of that committee.
l., Now, continued Mr. Bryan, do
YOU think that M. Dupont is in q
good position to pick out speakers
and train them as to what they shall
say? Do you expect any speaker
to mention the Government suit
against. the Powder trust if the
speaker is picked out and instructed
by Mr.. Dupont. who is president OF
the Powder Trust, and one Of the
defendants in the case brought by
the Government against his com
pany.
This is 8 charge that the Republi'
cans cannot deny and they have not
attempted to do so. The fact that
the, Republican leaders have put

cent of their deposits in reserve,
thereby protecting that far the par

laws are intended to protect the

But the proposition of the Demo-

has ruled they cannot join with the

positors and for the further reason,

WHY ISN'T ROOSEVELT
SHOCKED OVER THESE?

Certainly it was series of most
timely questions. directed to Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt who occu-
pies the White House, by John w.
Kern, Democratic candidate for vice
president, at great meeting in Bal
timore Wednesday night. These
questions are one OF the political
questions of the past forty eight
hours
MIR. Kern said in part while re
ferring to Gov. Haskell's case;
"Thcse charges were made by II
man hitherto denounced by the pres
ident as utterly unworthy. In fact,
the president during the last cam
paign in New York sent Secretary
Root to that state to denouncc that
man as not only unfit for public Of
flee, but To charge that he was in n
measure responsible for the assassin
alton of President Mckinley.
''The president of the United
States, who has had much to say
about square deal, seized upon
the unsupported charge of the man
referred to, and ON yesterday pro-
ceeded to rail hysterically at the
Democratic party for having as the
treasurer of its organization II man
whom he (thc presidcnD, has con-
out hearing, ON charges made by II
man on whose reliability MIR. Roose-
welt himself has placed the seal of
disapproval.

ence every man is presumed innocent

a square deal even as interpreted
by half civilized people. demands
this. The evidence at hand tends to
confirm this presumption as to Gov
ernor Haskell. He is at all events
entitled to a hearing before he is
condemned by any fair-minded man.

be any doubt of Governor HaskeIls :

The guarantee deposit plank in
the Democratic platform. and the
position of Mr.. Taft on the question,
is giving the Republicans. locally and
in the Nation great deal of trouble.
Kansas, Colorado and Oklahoma
Republicans are out openly advocat-
ing the proposition and to that extent
are fighting the position taken by
Mr.. Taft and the platform adopted at
Chicago
Locally, Republicans of promi-
nence are openly supporting Mr.. Bry-
an on account of his position, that
depositors in national banks are en-
titled TO as much security as the
United States government. Some of
these Republicans may have been
caught in our bank failures and are
therefore convinced that secured de-
posits would be good thing.
1t was to be expected that the
morning paper would oppose that
plank, because it has been and prob
ably always will oppose any reform
advocated for the good of all the
people.
The recent article printed in that
paper. on the subject of securing de-
positors, seems to have been written

brain storms to which he has ever
