Topeka, Kan, Aug. 27.-Before an
audience which filled the Auditorium
to oyerfowing, w. EJ. Bryan tonight
spoke on the subject of guaranty of
bank deposits. Previously he deliv-
cred three. other witnesses, two from
the veranda Of the hotel and the
third at Garfield Park, where he at
tended a picnic by the knights Of
Pythias, the latter theme being t'fra-
ternity.'' " #
AS announced, Mr.. Bryan, in view
Of the action Of the Kansas Republi-
can state convention, which indorsed
the guaranty of deposit proposition
made some remarks supplementary to
his prepared speech on the subject.
He took up the advantages Of the
guaranty system and then answered
the objections made by Taft and 9TH
ers.
He began by asking why the de-
positors should be left unsecured
when the national government de-
manded security of any bank with
which it deposited money. He point
ed out that the choice was between
the postal savings bank and the guar
anty bank. and accused Mr.. Taft of
favoring an unnecessary extension of
the sphere of government in advoca-
ting postal savings banks instead of
the guaranty bank Bryan declared
he preferred the guaranty bank pro-
position, which would allow banks to
attend to the banking business and
yet compel them to give their de-
positors necessary security.
Upon the conclusion of the speech,
Mr.. Bryan said:
ssI asked Mr.. Breidenthal, a banker
Of Kansas City, to make inquiry
among the bankers Of Kansas and
ascertain what proportion favored
the guaranty law. I learned that OF
the banks that expressed themselves
on the subject about three-fourths
Of them favored the guaranty law
and one-fourth opposed it.. That is
an excellent showing. Among the
depositors there is no opposition and
it is evident that the Kansas Cit,
banks recognize, first that something
must be done, and, second, that the
Guaranteed hank ia netter than the
postal savings bank. also inquired
Of Governor Haskell in regard to the
number of national banks which
have surrendered their charters ant
become state banks in order to have
the benefits Of the guaranty system

Atlantic City, N. Aug. 2T.-The
action of Governor Fort in issuing a
proclamation to the people of New
Jersey threatening to send troops in
to the famous resorts to enforce the
state liquor law unless the people Of
Atlantic City observe the law, caus-
ed sensation today among the res
idents and thousands of visitors.
Close on the heels of the COVER
nor's proclamation another sensation
was sprung at Mays Landing, the
county seat of Atlantic county, when
the grand jury absolutely refused to
obey the instructions of the court to
return indictments against excise
violators.
Supreme Court Justice Thomas w.
Trenchard, who has been requested
by Governor Fort to sit with the
county judge, was so incensed at the
action of the grand jury that he i'm
mediately discharged it with severe
governors proclamation will be re-
mains to be seen.
Governor Is Hostile.
Trenton, N. j., Aug. 27.-The pro-
position of Governor Fort to call
special session of the legislature for
the better enforcement of the liquor
laws in Atlantic City in case Sunday
selling goes ON next Sunday, is var
iously regarded here
The governor will probably plead
for a law for the creation of a state
board with power to revoke licenses
but such plea twice made by him
in messages to the same legislature
were ignored. The governors other
alternative would be to seek to have
Impeachment proceedings started
against offending officials of Atlantic
county and Atlantic City. In this case
the officials would be tried by the

TIE
neral Demand

of the Well-Informed of the Werld has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir Of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co, only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

oney and although it is hardly probable
that any recommendation from yoai
Chamber viii have effect in either
preeipitating or retarding legislation
on a matter of such Importance, your
committee believes it would be proper
for your Chamber to lend its support
to the measure, as set forth in the
Senate Bill CASA. Goth Congress, 1st
session. entitled a Bill to establish
Postal Savings Depositories for depos-
iting savings at interest with the Sc
curity of the Government for repay
ment thereof, and for other purposes
- Ia this bill the rate of interest
which it IS provided shall be allowed
depositors is two per cent per annum,
and as this is considerably less rate
than that which is allowed by the pri-
vate banks in this city, there would be
little chance of the postal savings
bank competing TO the disadvantage
Of the private banks; on the other
hand the probability is it might act
as feeder for these private banks.

the challenge of the baseball players
of the Capitol was couehed, and have
hurled back the following:

Choking down from the height of the

eat may look at a king and real
dubs may of right challenge champions,
so with the modesty becoming great
players we accept your humble chal

Suggestions:
That J. H. Little be instructed not
to shut off the water during the prog
ress of the game.
That J. H. Fisher be not allowed to
score, the validity of a run being a
matter of court decision rather than
arbitration.
That we know that the Public Works,
but Marston Campbell cannot work the
umpire.
That Henry may Hapai the ball.

The Football Situation
= = = y >. = = y y y =
BY Jack Densham.

The football situation in Honolulu
is very tense at present. There are
three parties on the subject and two
of them at any rate, feel very strongly.
There is one party that condemns foot
ball and wishes to see it abolished al
together. This consists principally of
parents of boys at Oahu College or the
High School and their friends with a
few of the kind of people who always
criticize when there is anything to be
criticized.
There is another party, consisting of
the players and students at the two
institutions, and this party is violently
and proteetively in favor of the inter
collegiate game They claim it as an
old institution and an inalienable right
and they refuse to consider any change
for second.
The third party consists to a large
extent of Britishers and also of many
long headed citizens who have children
at school and who see a solution of the
football problem in the introduction of
the Rugby game.
Discussions about football always re-
mind me of the old story of the Scotch
man in the smoking-room when they
were arguing about the different brands
of whiskey. He was appealed to and
asked if he did not think that GER
tain brand was bad FAll whuskey,"
he replied, "'is good but some is better
than ithers. "
Any game in the open air is good
so long as it is a sportsmanlike game
and there is no opportunity to take an
unfair advantage The crippling and
manning that is too much a feature of
the intercollegiate game takes place
nearly always in the mass plays when
the players pile up on top of each other
and struggle needlessly after the man
is dOwned. Sometimes injuries are done
after the ball is snapped in the lineup
when each side charges forward and
does its best to prevent the other side
from running interference or interfer-
ing with interference But this part
of the play is fairly open and any
mean work is too easily observed for
it to be tried very often.
Injuries are nearly always inflicted
during a pile-up. When a man is
tackled and the whole mass of players
throws itself on him, the one side to
prevent his advance and the other to
push him forward. Then he is the cen
ter of a writhing, struggling, kicking,
often smuggling and sometimes even,
biting mass of humanity. Most of the
time he escapes injury because he is
armored with much padding, and his
muscles are strong and hard. But oeca-
sionally the inevitable results and he is
carried off on stretcher.
do not say that there is no chance
Of getting hurt in the Rugby game.
But / do say that those chances come
always in the course of fair play as
they must come in any open game, be
it basketball or baseball. Where the
Rugby game is superior in this respect
70 the intercollegiate game IS that the
playing IS always open. There is no
piling up on a man when he is down |
and there is no tucking the ball under
one arm and trying to butt through |
an opposing line
The minute a Rugby player is tackled |
