BRYAN's sPEcIoUs RECORD.
Judge Taft Points Out tho Weak
spots In the Nebraskan's POlit-
ical History.

icht Httstory.
(From Taft's Cincinnati Specify
What Is 1t that we have to expect
from Mr.. Bryan? Have we anything
to expect but what he promises? Have
we anything 10 expect but what Is
based upon his eloquence and his
adroitness as a public critic? Has he
ever given my practical demonstration
of his ability to meet problems and
solve them? Has he ever lone any
thing but formulate propositions in his
closet of an utterly impracticable
plausibility, and very little with a view
Of their operation? BY their fruits
we shall know them
with the record OF promises and
prophecies unfulhlled for a period of
twelve years; with this record of a
hunt for an issue upon which to
achieve the presidency with this rec
ord Of reputation, Of negotiation and
of running away from national respon-
sibllities, Mr.. Bryan comes forward
and asks that the people now give him
an opportunity to put into operation
new reforms in respect to trusts and
in respect TO guaranty of bank depos-
its, wholly untried, wholly theoretical,
and on their face bearing evidence of
their impracticability and of having
been devised by the ready brain OF
II looking for plausible arguments
rather than real reforms. He only in
a qualified way approved the postal
savings bank recommended by the Re
publican platform, which is a tried
and proved means of encouraging the
w~age-earner aud small farmer to make
deposits In n bank absolutely secure;
but much prefers a system which takes
a mans money to pay another mans
default, and which instead Of strength
ening our banking system will break 1t
down by destroying the value Of the
banking character and experience and
capital and by Offering inducement to
reckless and speculative bankers with
out character or capital.
'The record Of Mr.. Bryan and his
character. as 1t 10 understood by a
twelve years acquaintance with him.
have impressed the business communi-
ty of this country and those whose
judgment determines whether or not
capital shall be invested that he 10 not
a safe man with whom to try expert
ments in government: that he loves
financial theories that are full Of So
phistry and are impractical that he
advances proportions with but little
sense OF respect as to how they may
be carried out in practice, and that he
gives but little attention to the well
fare of the conservative business COM
munity in his suggestions of reform.
Certainly his record justifies this judg-
ment Of him by the business men. II
he was to be elected. u~nquestionably
because of his record, however much
now he may seek to pose as a conserva-
tive-because Of his record, because of
the failure of the theory which he has
proposed for the last twelve years
his election will mean a paralysis of
business. and we should have a recur-
n of the disastrous business con
dition of the last Democratic admins
tration."

GROWTH OF WEALTH PER
CAPITA.

Doctrine that the Poor Are Growing
Poorer shown to be False.
(From the Los Angeles Times.)
In 1920 the savings banks of the
United States held 81, 13S,576. This
was n poor country then compared with
now. The amount was only an average
of II cents for the population OF that
time. That amount of average economy
was very small.
Now the people Of this country have
$3,690,S7S,945 in savings banks. This
Is an average for the whole population
of this time of over $40. The actual
depositorS have an average o. 500 to
their credit. In 1920 only Sos per-
o n IA the country were rich enough 10
have a savings bank account. Now
there are S,5SS.S11.
When James Buchanan, the last
Democratic President in a long line,
went into Office, there was about $780,
100000 in the sa vings banks of the
United States, By 1870, after fighting
out the great war, the people, under
Republican rule for twenty years, Lad
$550,000,00O In the savings banks. When
the next Democratic President took his
seat in 1883, the savings Of the people
had passed the billion point. BY 1898
the savings had doubled again.
So there it Is. In 1920 there were
only about 5000 people rich enough to
have a savings bank account. Now
there are over 100000. In 1920 the
savings were IL cents per capita now
they are over $42.
That the poor grow poorer and the
rich richer In this country is as true
as II other Populistic notion.

He talks in the morning and talks in

He talks when he's wrong and he
talks when he's right
He talks in the Office and talks In the

He talks in the church and he talks at

He talks to the Senate and talks to the

He talks to the people as poor common

On Haskell.

Governor Haskell's utter unfit
ness for any public position of
trust or 70. association with any
man anxious to make an appeal
on n moral issue to the American
people has been abundantly
shown.
As an American citizen who
prizes his Amerieanism and citi-
zensl ip far above any question
of craftsmanship, | regard 1t as a
scandal and disgrace that Gov
ernor Haskell should be connect
ed with the management of a ma
tional campaign.

Roosevelt on Taft.

l hope and believe that all far
sighted citizens who wish to see
this country prosperous in mate
rial things will support Mr.. Taft,
but above all l ask for support
for him because he stands for the
moral upllft of the nation, be-
cause his deeds have made good
his words, and because the poll
cies to which he is committed are
OF Unreasonable consequence
. alike to the honor and interest of
the whole American people.

In my judgment the measures

so far as they had any effect at
all would merely throw the entire
business of the country into hope
less and utter confusion.
| put MI. Taft's deeds against
your words. | ask that Mr.. Taft
be judged by all his deeds, for he
wishes none Of them forgotten. l
ask that you be judged both by
the words you wish remembered
and by the words that seemingly
you and your party now desire to
have forgotten.

At last report Smith was living and
Savage had fled 1t was thought
Smiths wound would prove fatal and
a warrant was issued by Magistrate

that pistols and shooting are neces-

STORE YOUR COTTON.
In Standard Warehouse If You Dom
Want to Select the Money
Meet Your OBJ cations.

Mr.. 7. B. Stackhouse. Of Columbia,
president Of the Standard Warehouse
Company. was in Newbcrry on Satur-
day.
The Standard Warehouse Company
through Mr.. Stackhouse, as its presl-
dent. has made arrangements to ad-
vance money to its customers on cot
ton stored to the amount Of two-thirds
Of the market value Of the cotton. In
quantities Of less than 100 bales at
eight per cent. per annum, and IN
quantities Of more than 100 bales at
seven per cent. per annum.
4 company has been organized to
be known as the Farmers Loan and
Trust Company with a capital stock
Of $4,000, and all Of those farmers
who desire to hold their cotton can
receive two-thirds of its market value
upon placing it in the warehouse and
securing the warehouse receipts. This
action on the part Of the Standard
Warehouse Company should relieve
the situation very much. The TAR
mers are not inclined to sell their
cotton at the present prices and yet
a great many Of them have obligations
to meet which are pressing and by
getting two+thirds Of the market value
Of their cotton these obligations can
be attended to.
Mr.. Stackhouse says that the COM
pany will handle only paper Of its
customers. and will be prepared to
take care of all it's customers. He
sometime ago made trip east for the
purpose Of making the arrangements
for the money for the Standard Ware
house Company and was successful
and is prepared to take care OF all
the customers who place cotton IN the
warehouse of the Standard Ware
house Company.
Mr.. James D. Wheeler, who IS IN
charge Of the Standard Warehouse at
Newberry, will furnish all the lnfor-
nation that is necessary in order to
secure this advance on cotton stored
in the warehouse. The receipts will
be issued by him and the notes fill
ed out and signed and only sutfi-
cient time for the notes to be sent to
Columbia and the check to be return
ed will be necessary in order to secure
the money.
Cotton is the only asset we haze in
this country at this time and when it
is withheld from the market all busl-
ness is blocked.
The farmers should take hold OF
this opportunity to relieve the sit
uation and by this means Will be able
to hold for better prices for their cot
ton.
