friend Of Mr.. Taft can agrees re-
marks regarding the institution Of q
Roosevelt dynasty are not only shock
ng but absolutely damaging to the
Republican candidate and the Repub-

Speaking Of the Longworth incident,
Mr.. Josephus Daniels, chairman Of the
publicity bureau at Democratic head
quarters, said:
"The people may take it In their
heads in November to knock Mr.. Long
worth's nice family arrangement in
the head by going outside the close
corporation an1 family monopoly Of
the presidency. That would be sad
for the son-in-law, but good for the
country. The remark Of Mr.. Long
worth shows that long tenures In Office
for one party makes those In power
thank they own the government. If
for no other reason than to teach the
Gon-in-law and others near the throne
that this Is a republic. the voters will
decide upon change in November"

SHAKING DOWN THE TRUSTS.
Promises Republican Party Will
Be Good.

Under New York date line Of Sept.
10 the daily papers of the country
publish dispatch from which the fol-
lowing IL taken:
1.-THE visit of Charles G. Dawes, Of
Chicago formerly Comptroller Of the
Currency, had more influence than
anything else in arousing Wall street
uneasiness. Mr.. Dawes came to New
York primarily to raise money for the
Republican congressional campaign
committee. and he gave the people he
called upon very clearly to under.
stand that the Republican majority in
the house is in danger.
Wall street has steeled itself
against the opportunities of political
canvassers for funds, but Mr.. Dawes
visit was unquestionably impressive.
The people who saw and heard him
were convinced that he really meant
what he said when he announced that
unless means were taken to arrest the
current and change the situation the
Democrats would swing into control
Of the popular branch of congress and
probably elect a president. Mr.. Dawes
did not confine his visit alone tc
bankers and financiers. He devoted q
good share of his attention to leading
representatives Of the manufacturing
interests. He carried away some.
money, but not nearly as much as he
had hoped for. z

didate Jacobson last Friday evening
at meeting of political workers Il
Minneapolis.
The remarks were greeted with ap-
plause by his hearers and the parti
san newspapers took up the cry and
made the best Of it. And well they
might. for it is the most sane utter
ance delivered by the Republican can.
didate during this campaign.
However, it might not be amtss toI
remind the voters Of Minnesota that
the only occasion for rivalry betwoen|
the country and the city was kindled|
and kept up by the dsmogoSic appeals
Of this same jacobson during hiS
strenuous days in the legislature.
There was a time when Jacobson
was q power with Minnesota lawmak-
ers. He didn't earn his leadership by
merit or by ability. but by sheer force
and threats.

Through the administration of John

brought about and during the, last
two sessions of the state legislature
there wasn't word said about the
rivalry between the country and tho
city. ~ ~
On the other hand during the legis-
lative career of J. F. jacobson there
was scarcely publication of Twin

Mr.. Jacobson may have repented for

The federal administration last year

In the 1898 war. At the recent bank
er's convention Lawrence s. Gillespie,
president of the Equitable Trust Com
pany Of New York, discussing the ad-
ministration, said:
las in our private life so in our ma
donal finances, the year 1907 seems to

REPUBLICANS LICENSED
Loneworth's Speech at Rock Island
ILL.,, ArOuses Wrath.

No utterance Of the campaign has
attracted more attention than the pre-.
dictiOn Of Congressman Nicholas
Longworth, the presidents son-in-I,w.
who, in speech at Rock Island. Ill.,.
declared that after eight years Of Taft
1t would be Roosevelt in the Wh.ie
House again. This utterance has caused
Republican campaign managers no lit
tie annoyance. The Republican view
Of the incident is well set forth by tie
Chicago Inter Ocean, one of the leaI-
ing Republican papers in the en.i.e
west. The Inter Ocean said:
"The Hon. Nicholas LongwOrth pro
posed to 10000 American citizens in
Rock Island on Friday that Mr.. Il, /

United States for the next eight years
and Mr.. Roosevelt for the eight years
following Mr.. Tafts second term.

accepted usually as sepi-otticial for

present instance.

quarter of a century Of personal rule
over this republic.

A CONVINCING CERTIFICATE

That Every Voter Should Read Who
Believed That Bank Deposits Should
Be Guaranteed Against Loss.
The Democratic platform favors se-
cured bank deposits. The Republican
platform is silent on the subject and
lts leaders, Mr.. Taft notably, op-
pose it.
Tie following certificate published
In The Commoner Ia distinctly inter-
esting at the present time:
Guthrie, Okla, June II, 19O6.-The
depositors' guaranty law was passed
Dec. II, 1907, and was made operative
Feb. IA, 1908.
Bank reports show that the effect
Of the law began weeks before the law
was in actual operation.
"There are now 551 banks under the
law in this state, including 81 national
banks. There are 255 unsecured banks
(all nationally in the state.
1.-THE dates Of statement calls were
- follows:
For national banks, Dec. 8, 1907;
Feb. 4, 1908, and May il, 1908.
"For state banks Dec. II 1907; Feb.
"From Dec. 3, 1907, to Feb. II,
1908, the deposits in the unsecured
banks decreased about an even half
million. The secured national banks
for the same period gained in deposits
about $4,000. State banks (all sc.
cure0 for tie period from Dec. II,
1907, to Feb. IA, 1908, show an increase
in deposits Of $716,749.47.
"For the period ending May II, Sc
cured national banks show an increase
In deposits of $645, 41361.
Estate banks (all securely for the
period ending May IA, show an in
crease in deposits Of $2,355, 6O2.14.
'For the period ending May II the
unsecured banks (all nationals) lost in
deposits $500, SO7.86.
deposits of state funds show a de-
crease in both classes of banks as fol-
lows:
In secured banks ..........$ 21.533. so
In unsecured banks ....... 669, 919. IS
'"Total increase in deposits in all Sc
cured banks, December to May, per re-
ports, $4,237, 1882.
'Total decrease Of deposits in all I'M

reports, $1,1OO,sO7
Total decrease Of deposits Of state
