cLEvEIANp PREpICTs a TAFT vICToRY.

The New York Times recently published a series of letters written
by the late Grover Cleveland just prior to his death, the writing OF the
series ended by the demise of the Democratic statesman. True, the
and the executor of MI. Cleveland while first stating tina. the letters and
Clevelands signature at their end were genuine, has, after the sensation
created by the Taft letter, "renigged' and now says the letters are for
geres. Nevertheless, common opinion, well supported, is that the letters
express the sentiments entertained by Mr.. Cleveland, and many prom
inent Democrats have decided to follow the direction pointed out by Mr..
Cleveland. In the letter, which caused the greatest Juror, Mr.. Cleveland
expressed himself in the following terms:
when it became apparent that Mr.. Taft would be the nominee of
his party = conjecture as to the result of the November conclusions
could be of but one sort among sensible men " The Republican party
is certain, though with a considerably lessened strength, to move on 20 a
safe victory sustained by the popular support of reforms which should
not rebound to its glory solely, those reforms having been the work of
decent men of all parties. = . His (Tafts) excellence IS a federal judge
in Cincinnati is something not to be underestimated or overemphasized,
for should he come to the presidential chair the qualities which made
him a judge of high ability, which l know him to have been, will be the
most needful to him as president of the United States. His high ideals of
honesty and Of relative justice, his great capacity for severe labor and his
humorous wisdom in the face of serious problems are attributes equally
valuable and commendatory to a people seeking him in whom they may
repose the trust of their collective interests, while they turn their in
creased attention to their pressing individual demands"

THEIR WAY OF LOOKING Ar IN.

In the conference Of the American Bankers association which is be-
ing held at Denver, the savings bank section of that association in its
report, made the following break:
Eve point with pride to the record of the savings institutions of the
United States. While the figures for 1907 are not yet available, during
the year 1906 the aggregate net loss to depositors a the trivial sum of
100000, being threetenthousands of per cent on a total of $3OOO,50O,
900 in saving deposits, whereas, the proposed government rate of 2 per
cent would have deprived the deposHors of at least $5O,OOO,OOO in in
terest in the same year"
That Is the way the bankers look at it, "The loss to depositors
was only a trivial sum of 100000" whereas the proposed government
interest rate of but 2 per cent would have deprived depositors of at least
$50,0OO,OO0 in the same year, in loss of interest.
And yet upon whom would the loss of that fifty millions of dol
lars worked a direct hardship? On the other hand, that $4,000 was
the hard earned savings of the man who slaves for a pitance, of the
widow, the all of the orphan. Trivial" amounts, surely, and yet the loss
of which meant in many instances the poorhouse, ejectment from homes
which the unfortunates were striving to gain possession of that they
might pass their last days in comparative ease and peace, ever if not in
the afhuence which the bank officials enjoy; meant in many cases some
loved one could not be sent to another climate, or even to a hospital, or
a famous surgeon that some distressing maady might be relieved. That
100000 was blood money-blood wrung from the hearts, the hands, the
brows and bodies of the peope-the people, whom the bankers stand on
record as saying it is but a trivial" matter to rob.

A DIRTY POLITICAL LIE.

1t II refreshing to Republicans to note that P. L. Flanagan, the Re
publican candidate for the United States senate, has lost no time mailing
as a malicious campaign lie a report to the effect that he had sold prom
Uses of patronage for political support, and thereby laying himself liable
to a felony prosecution. In the Bonanza this morning will be found Mr..
F1anigans Straightforward denundation of the report as a lie. 1t is to be
hoped that Mr.. Flanagan will discover and expose the source of the canard,
which was eagerly grabbed up by papers of Democratic or convenient DO
liucal profession. The text of the dispatch referred to is as follows:
RENO, Sept 24-P. L. Flanagan acknowledged to Senator James r.
Boyd, A. N. Salisbury. l. @. Lewis and U. M. Slater yesterday afternoon
that he promised T. r. Moran, candidate for district attorney OF Washoe
county, that he would put Moran on the Flanagan payroll at $50 a
month, and that he would give him a federal position In Nevada or in
the Philippine islands. If Moran would withdraw from the fight for district
attorney of Washoe county in the furtherance of F1anigans candidacy for
United States senator.
Legal authority supports the statement that such an offer is a crime
under the Nevada statute, which forbids any candidate for office to hold
out a pecuniary reward or promise of office to any person for his support
OF such candidate.
"The statement was made on demand of the persons mentioned, who
had been accused by Flanagan men Of having made the offer, and Flani-
gan, unable TO deny his participation in the matter threw himself upon

CHEYENNE, Sept. 10.-There is
no change in the local coal mining
situation in Wyoming from that of
September 1, when the miners ceased
working because their contracts had
expired and no renewals had been
made. The mines are idle and moth
ing is publicly known of any attempt
being made to compromise the diff
erences, which relate to wages only,
the operators desiring to cut the scale
from Is to 25 cents per day and the
miners refusing to accept the reduc-
ton. There has been no violence or
suffering at the coal camps.

SOUTHERN NEVADA DEMANDS RECOGNITION.

Voters of the state should keep in mind the fact that the three pres
ent supreme judges are from the northern part of the sate-Judge Nor
cross, from Washoe; Judge Sweeney from Ormsby, and Judge Talbot,
the Democratic nominee, is from Elko Southern Nevada is not repre-
sented at III on the supreme bench, and all right and fair-minded men,
irrespective of party, will agree that it is time that this section of Ne
yada should have such representation. In Attorney Hugh H. Brown, the
Republican nominee for the supreme bench, is a candidate who would
give the southern part of the state its justified recognition. Residing at
Tonopah for years, he is familiar with every phase of life in his section,
and probably there is 10 man in the state better versed in mining laws,
practices and interests. During a period of his twelve years of work as a
mining practioneer he was associated with the late Patrick Reddy We
claim that politics should have nothing to do with the bench, and that the
best man for the place should be elected. We believe that Hugh Brown is
the best man for the place; that southern Nevada needs aud is entitled to
his services, and we bespeak for him the vote of both Democrats and
Republicans.

A LITTLE SLIP IN wAsHoE.

Through some oversight the Republicans of Wasnoe county failed
to place their nominations on file with the county clerk last Friday, as
required by the state laws, and Is a consequence, the nominations will
have to be filed by petition. The Democrats of Washoe ire making great
capital out of the oversight, claiming that there is a rucuon in the
party, and that "the failure to place the legislative candidates names
on record in proper form absdves them from the pledges taken at the
convention that nominated them, to vote for the senatorial candidate
receiving the larger popular vote, be ne Republican II Democrat" All
of which is tommyrot. There will be no attempt on the part of the Re
publican party or its candidates to evade it's pledges, and that the idea
has occurred to the Democratic mind merely shows the inner workings
and condition of that so-caIed party. If opportunity should arise. or
conditions suggest its feasibility, we have no doubt that the Democratic
party of Washoe would not repudiae, but merely forget, that senatorial
agreement.

That the American Bankers association, as a unit, is opposed to

arguments in favor of the former, at least, and probably of the latter.

New YORK, Dec. is. 1908.


While few transactions of minor
importance are reported in domestic to-
bacco, business as a general thing
seems to be practically at standstill,

great deal more business until new

Sumatra. Business is reported to be
quite good in Sumatra this week, and a
quantity of this tobacco has changed
hands The buyers seem to have awak
ened to the fact that the importations
of Sumatra this year were considerably
smaller than for some time past; and
that if a normal business is done next
year by the cigar factories, which now
seems likely, prices bid fair to go
higher.

small sales have been made, and re-

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, Dec. 25, 1905

EDGERToN, Wis, Dec. 25, 1908.
Business in the tobacco markets is
becoming overshadowed by the diver
sions of the approaching holidays.
There is some riding for the earlier
portion of last seasons crop and sales
of at least 300 acres have been made
during the week at an average price of
about cents. A few cheaper grades
are also selling at from cents up. So
far but little earnestness has developed
in the movement. Considerable tobac-
co has been received from growers at
delivery points during the week, and
right after the New Year holiday sew
eral warehouses will open for handling.
Nothing has developed in the market
of late that brings much encourage
ment to holders of old leaf. What
movement there is is largely confined
to off grades that sold below the price
of sound leaf. The only transaction of
moment reaching us is the completing
of the delivery of about 70Ocs of tops
of the Equity packings in the state to
F. S. Baines.
1t is generally believed that most of
the hanging tobacco was taken down
from the sheds during the casing
weather of last week and stripping is
now pretty well along.
The shipments out of storage reach
$50 cases from this market to all points
for the week.
