BANKERS
OPPOSED

Chicago, April 13.-The Tribune to
day says: The Aldrich currency bill
now under consideration By the
House Committee on Banking a1d
the clearing house and national banks
in practically every city of the coun-
try Even state banks and trust COM
pa1ies, which are not directly con-
cerned in the act, have voiced their
displeasure at the proposed law. A
canvass of the national banks of the
country shows that practically every
one fears the results of the Aldricn
act in case it become law. The
most prominent exception, and the
only large city institution favori1g
the bill, is a large Washington insti-
futon which has millions of govern
ment bonds in its vaults.
There are some bankers throughout
the country, who, although opposed
to the bill in some particulars, are
willing to accept it as a temporary
guard against a recurrence of the re-
cent panic, but the majority declare
it is not only useless but a harmful
measure. In total of 421 banks in
81 large cities, eleven banks declare
in favor of the bill, while 410 are
against it.

CANDIDATE
FORAKER

Washington, Apr. IA careful
analysis of the testimony taken in the
investigation of the shooting up of
Brownsville, Tex, August 1914, 1906,
and an argument in favor of the re-
enlistment of the colored soldiers of
the 25th regiment U. S. Infantry,
was made in a speech delivered to
day by Senator Foraker, of Ohio.
The senate gave him an attentive
hearing, and the galleries were fill
ed. The Senator disclaimed the asser
tion that the Investigation was made
to embarrass the President, or any
one else, but said it was made to as
certain the facts. He said most of the
witnesses against the soldiers testi
fed four different times, and their
testimony was sufficiently contradic-
tory to show 1T unreliable, while the
discharged men gave their testimony
in a straightforward way. In regard
to the cartridge shells found after the
shooting, he said it was impossible
for the soldiers to have obtained the
cartridges without the fact being de
veloped in the examination. Another
point he made was that there was no
motive for the soldiers shooting up
the town" He advocated the passage
of his bill, which annuls the record
of discharge without honor, and pro
vides for the re-enlistment of the dis
charged soldiers. He close with a trib
ute of praise for the negro race,
which he said had ever been loyal to
America AID American institutions.

following announcement YESTERDAY:
The city of San Francisco, that two
years ago was in great confusion and
its streets filed with debris, has had

work accomplished may be realized.
In addition the city has had a house
cleaning and is now pronounced one
of the cleanest and most healthful in
the United States. People from all
parts of the nation are preparing to
attend the festival attending the ar.
rival of the American fleet at San
Francisco, and in this correction the
health authorities of the City and
the federal authorities state that the
residences and places of business are
cleaner than ever before. that no

sixty days and that no cases are now
under suspicion.

vention has been predicted for the
Democrats today. With "a supreme
heads of the state committee to pre-
vent the ousting of Senator Patrick
H. McCarren's delegates from 16 con
tested districts in Kings county, and
the prospect of a lively fight by the
followers of Bryan to secure recog-
milton for their leader and an instruc-
ted delegation in his behalf, the out
look was that the proceedings would
be exciting. About the only thing
that seemed to be taken for granted
was the success of the plan to send
an uninstructed delegation from New
York to Denver, in spite of the eff
forts of the Bryan men who are
largely in the minority.
After argument before Justice
Crane, today the justice modified his
previous order so that while the state
committee may not strike the names
of the McCarren delegates from the
temporary roll, the contests may be
carried to the floor of the convention.
He said, ''The convention is the pro

Last Thursday. Nov. 26th, was
the day designated by the president

errors OF the various states and
territories as a day OF thanksgiving
to Almighty God for the blessings
OF another wear. We, as a people.
have many things to I've thankful
for, and we should never forget the
injunction given by the apostle
when he said in everything give
thanks" we should also remember
that every good and perfect gilt
cometh from the Father OF light,
with whom there is no variableness,
neither shadow OF turning and
that he sends the rain on the lust
and the unjust; that the powers
that be are ordained OF God.
The grateful man finds something
to be thankful for each DAY he
lives; and when we hear persons
lamenting their condition, and
finding fault with things in general,
il is because they are void OF that
essential element OF character
known as gratitude.
