REGARDING THE BANKERS.

The republicas are making great
to-do about the action of the Ameri-
can Bankers association in declaring
against the democratic plan of guaran-
teeing bank deposits; they are saying
little or nothing about the fact that
this same association at this same
meeting declared against. the republic
can plan of postal savings banks.
Knowing full well that the people are
insisting on radical changes in the
methods of handling peoples money in
the repositories. the republican candi-
date seized upon the plan of govern
ment banks, hoping thereby to divert
attention from the perfectly sane meth.
cd of insuring deposits.
And when the bankers of the nation,
in convention assembled, declare1
against the plan of insuring each de-
position that ne would get back the
money he placed on deposits. the re-
publican partiZans let loose loud yells
of joy, but remained discreetly silent
when the bankers also went on record
against the postal savings bank.
1t is not unnatural that the bankers
should oe opposed to any radical
change in the banking laws. When a
bank fails, it is not the banker VIVID
suffers. 1t is not the banker who has
TO wait months and sometimes years
10 get back part of the money he
trustingly placed on deposit. 1t is the
depositor who sreaiIy interested in
this matter, because it is the deposition
who suffers when bank is forced to
close its doors.
This point was we'll illustrated in a
recent conversation with a well known
Walla Walla banker, who declared that
he was opposed to the guarantee plan
"Why?" this Walla Walla banker was
asked.
Because I am a banker" he replied

story Of which this heart interest is

as though it had flowed from the pen

lines snap one another like the crack

If bankers should not be required
to contribute to a fund to insure de-
poSitorS because that would induce
reckless banking" as the republican
politicians are arguing, then why not
apply the rule that what is sauce for
the goose is sauce for the gander; why
not say that banks should not ask Sc
curity from borrowers lest the prac-
tice induce recklessness on the part
of the individual; why not say also
that the federal government should not
ask the national banks to deposit
bonds to secure the bank note money
which the law permits them to issue
lest to require such. bonds tend to pro-
duce race of bankers who would
recklessly issue bank notes?

We older children grope our way from

And only when our hands we lay, dear
Lord, in thine the night is day
And there is darkness nevermore.

A NOBLE PROFESSION.

There are no more faithful men to the
welfare, health and prosperity of com.
munity than doctors. Those in Mari.
eta are especially OF this class.
While it is true their business de-
ponds upon sickness, yet, as little as
you think of it, they are watchful to
prevent sickness, always suggesting
what is best calculated to produce good
sanitary conditions, We have been
thrown in social contact with these
physicians in our town, and we know
how they feel about it, and how deeply
they are concerned about the good
health of the people and the town.
They study cause and effect, and as
their education and life-work is to cure
disease, their efforts are always put
forth to prevent. They are good Sa-
maritans in doing charity work. Day
and night they have been called from
their offices and homes and go forth to
save life, and oftimes without receiv-
ing a cent of compensation.
It's noble profession, and they are
noble men, and we lift our hat to them
in their work, in this community.

THE BROWN FUND.

The beginning of new session of the
State University at Athens this week
will attract much interested attention
from its patrons and friends. They ex-
pect an enrolment that will eclipse all
former records, the great stride being
attributed to the work of the Georgia
SO0-08 Club in bringing before the eyes
of the people the unsurpassed advan-
tages offered by the University of Geor-
gia. Notable among the aids to young
men who are ambitious but without
pecuniary aid is the Charles Mcdonald
Brown fund, established in 1882 by
Governor Joseph E Brown, father of
the present democratic nominee for
governor. The sum of $4,000 was set
aside by him for use by loans to worthy
students. During the twenty six years
OF the funds existence every cent has
been returned to the University g treas
urer with nominal interest. Some Of
the most prominent figures in the State
to-day received their education as ben
eticiaries of the Brown fund, and their
gratitude knows no bounds Columbus

REVISION OF THE TARIFF.

Tariff revision is the leading Issue in
the presidential campaign. Bryan is
showing up the trusts, and in doing So,
he shows that the Republican party is
the father and fosterer of the trusts.
The strength of the Republican party
has been in the money wrung from the
corporations for campaign purposes.
And as each election has placed the
Republican party in control of the SEN
ate and house, as we'll as the president,
that party has made the laws to suit
the corporations, giving them power to
pilfer the people.
This state Of affairs is being antago-
nIzed by public sentiment in this coun-
try, and a revision OF the tariff is de-
manded. This cannot be done if Can
non is speaker, for he absolutely shapes
by his despotic, one-man
power in congress.
A congressman may introduce legis-
lation, but If Cannon doesn't want it to
pass, then it is choked off. Tariff re-
vision, therefore, cannot be made posi-.
BILE and successful unless there is a new
deal and the Democratic party is placed
in power. This is what is causing the
people to think and flock to Bryan.
