There is no doubt that Jacobson has been
steadily gaining votes as the campaign has
progressed and that Johnson has been looslng.
This is the first time that an aggressive cam
paign has been made against Johnson, and the
voters are learning how little he has really
done as governor, and how empty his legis-
1ative record is compared to Jacobsons.

A vote for John A. Johnson for a third term
means boost for the Democratic party which
will carry Minnesota into the doubtful column
on presidential elections if johnson is success
full Johnson accepted the third nomination to
help out the Democratic politicians whose
great ambition it is to make Minnesota a De-
mocratic state and the reelection of johnson
simply places in their hands the patronage OF
the state to be used than ever before to
help out the national Democratic party. This
is thing for Republicans who are inclined to
vote for Johnson to consider seriously.

TAFT STILL
IN The LEAD

Washington, March 21.--Political
developments Of the week have not
served to materially change the situa-
ton in the race for the republican
nomination for president. Secretary
Taft is still far in the lead with every
prospect of maintaining his advantage.
State republican conventions viii be
held next week in Illinois, Rhode Is
land, and Tennessee The former
state will, of course be for Cannon.
Tennessee will undoubtedly select a
Taft delegation, and Rhode Island is
apparently divided in its allegiance be.
tween Taft and Hughes, with odds in
favor of the former. Congressional
district conventions will be held in sev
eral states next week, and all of them
with the exception of two Illinois dis
tricts, will elect delegations for Taft.

Providence, R. l.. March 2L-The
democratic state convention Of Rhode
Island, for the election Of delegates
to the Denver convention, was called
to order in Music Hall at o'clock
this afternoon. Bryan sentiment ap-
parently dominates the majority Of
the delegates and the Nebraskan will
undoubtedly be chosen as the states
choice for the presidency. The Hon.
Thomas P Gore, the blind senator
from Oklahoma is the guest of the
convention and will deliver an adj
dress. The Ol1lahoman is a staunch
friend of Bryan, and his presence will
doubtless serve to strengthen the
wavering allegiance of delegates who
might otherwise oppose the endrose.

committee of seven was appointed for
the reception and entertainment Of
the Oklahoma senator during his stay
here.
In resolution passed by the demo-
cratic state central committee, Bryan
is praised as a 'conservator Of the
peace and Of every legitimate business
interest" The resolution further

vast majority Of the citizens Of this

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-09-09
The Real Significance Of
the Bank Deposit Guaranty Plan.
In the Insurance Offers Against Pancs and Depression
Lies its Chief Strength as a Political Issue.

the community loses their use, and one
source of credit is stopped.
above all the guaranty plan is an
insurance against panic and depres-
sion, and this is vastly more imp ort-
ant than the insurance against actual
loss of deposits. When panic stalks
abroad the people, having no security
for the return of their deposits, go and
get them out of the banks it they can,
inspired in this action by the ex-
ample of others and the fear of what
others will do. Bank runs have closed
many sound banks, and the fact that
ultimately the depositors got all their
money cannot compensate for the fact
that in the meantime they lose the use
of their money, the community loses
the opportunity to borrow the de-
posits, and industry loses it's main
impetus -eredit.
''It is not the actual loss of de-
posts that creates all the mischief,
but the sudden stoppage of business
and the crushing of prosperity that
follow bank runs. The depositors
have no security, SO they want their
money Immediately. II the banks
cannot keep this money, they cannot
give credit, and if credit is not to be
had business must slow up or stop
altogether. BY giving the depositors
security through the guaranty plan,
the process would be stopped at its
inception. There would be no occa-
sion for bank runs, and the knowledge
that the depositors would not rush for
their money would enable the bankers
to keep on giving the credit that bust
ness needs. The desideratum is not
only that depositors shall suffer no
loss, but that the anxieties of de-
positors shall not precipitate panic in
which every member of the community
suffers.''
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-09-09

The New York World, while sup
porting Bryan, opposes his bank de-
post guaranty plan on the ground
that there has been no such loss OF
national bank deposits as to call for
a guaranty fund of this kind. Since
the establishment of the national
banking SYSTEM" it argues, "the
failures and crimes ofnational bankers
have cost depositors only fraction
of one per cent. Compared with the
real wrongs from which the people
suffer, such as plutocracy, privilege,
protection and plumber, what could
be more trifing than this guaranty
proposition and how can anyone
gravely propose to make an issue OF
it?''
But that the Worlds opposition is
based upon misrepresentation, ii not
ignorance, is made clear by the retort
of a writer in the Duluth Evening Her.
aid. Says this writer:
eff the mere loss of deposits in the
national and state banks of the coun-
try were all that is involved, it would
not be worth while to advocate the
deposit guaranty plan. But the net
losses form minor factor only, and
are not to be considered for moment
beside the greater losses and greater
suffering created by the fact that the
people have no security for their bank
deposits.
s'The World should understand
though it evidently does not-that the
chief object of the guaranty plan IS
not so much to insure against actual
losses of deposits, as it is to insure
against the results of panic. When a
bank fails it does not necessarily
mean that depositors will lose all
their money; ultimately they get part
of it back, and perhaps all. But IN
the meantime their funds are tied up,

Let Everybody Help.

Following the terrible forest fire
calamity in the northern part OF the
state Governor Johnson issued the
following proclamation, every word OF
which should sink deep into the feel
ings and sympathies of people upon
whom direful disaster has thus far not
laid it's hand:
"a great disaster has come to north
eastern Minnesota. Chisholm, one OF
the splendid cities OF the Mesaba
range, h as been totally destroyed by a
destructive forest fire, which swept
over large portion of St. Louis
county. Every home and business
house of that community is burned
and 6 5000 people are suddenly rendered
homeless, the property loss amounting
to millions of dollars Early reports
indicate also the total destruction of
the mining locations of Shenando,
Hartley and Pillsbury. The total
number of people rendered homeless
may reach $4,000, and vast tracts OF
agricultural lands have also been de-
vastated.
''This disaster is without parallel in
the history Of Minnesota, and in view
Of the APPALLING calamity I appeal to
the generosity of the people of Mime
sofa for liberal aid, and, owing to the
great necessity, ask that assistance be
as prompt as possible.

state university or prevent the en-
largement of the campus and the cree
ton of buildings necessary to accom-
modate the increasing number Of its
students? Would he practice economy
at the expense of the efficiency Of the

What objection does he raise to the
establishment at the state prison of a
factory to compete with the harvester
trust, which will sell reapers to farm
ers at something like what they cost?
Would he, in the name of economy,
prevent the state from acquiring sufi-

which he accuses a republican legis-
