rAEr ON THE FlRlNG LINE.

The management of the republican
national committee displayed rare good
judgment in sending Mr.. Taft on a
speaking tour of the country. The
American people know Mr.. Taft's Of
fetal record. They know that he
made an ideal judge on the bench; that
he did wonders in bringing order out
of chaos in the Philippines, in Porto
Rico and at Panama; and that he has
established a high standard of execu-
tive efficiency as secretary of war. Now
they are getting a glimpse of the hu-
man side of the man, the Taft who "a
meet all kinds of audiences, in all Sec
tons Of the country and talk face to
face with the people on the issues that
vitality concern them.
Mr.. Taft's campaign has partaken of
the nature of an ovation from start to
the present time. Through Wisconsin,
Iowa, the Dakotas and in Illinois, he
has talked to unnumbered thousands
Of voters, frankly stating his position
on the labor question, the tariff, pos
tai savings, bank guaranty and all of
the questions in which the public has
concern. He has evaded nothing,
sidestepped no issue, nor sought to
smooth over n troublesome PROPOSE
ton by honeyed words or glittering
g%eneralities. He has made and is maxi
ing a manly campaign of the kind that
convinces. If any doubt existed any
where as to Mr.. Taft's attitude on n
of the public questions or of his abil-
ity to intelligentIy cope with them that
doubt has been removed. In him the
republicans have an ideal candidate,
because he is an ideal American.

The bureau of statistics at Wash
ington has published a report showing
In detail the American trade opera
tions with foreign countries for the
past los years. The figures force the
inference that the trade is affected less
by tariff laws and rules than is gem
orally supposed. but is due more to the
old law of supply and demand and the
energies of the people in developing
trade activity along certain lines.
Since 1900 this country has i'm
ported more than sac, OOO, 900, 900
worth of goods and has exported some
$4,000. 600, 900, leaving a balance of
trade IN our favor amounting to some
g 1000, 200, 900. For nearly so years
OF the period under consideration the
nations imports were in excess of the
exports. the change to the credit side
of the ledger having been accomplished
since 1875. In only three years since
that time have the imports exceeded
the exports, the greatest difference in
that direction being in 1893, when the
export trade dwindled to small figures.
Trade experts are ever at a loss to
account for Americas remarkable and
continued growth in exports. Predic-
tions are always plentiful that the in
creased demand for home consumption
must SCOT cause p dwindling of ex-
ports, but American enterprise and
American energy have been persist
ent in opening new fields and enlarg-
ing operations to the end hat exports
have continued to increase instead Of
showing the predicted falling on. The
future apparently is problematical. II
the great west continues to develop as
an industrial center. producing beyond
domestic demands, foreign exports
must continue to be large. AT present

FUNCTION OF POSTAL BANKS.
strong Argumsntjin Favor OF Popular
DeoOsItorIes.
Chicago News.


There are hundreds of thousands of per-
sons In the United States who recognize
the country's great need of postal savings
banks. To them Mr.. Taft's strong argu-
ment In favor of these popular repositories
made in Minneapolis last Saturday even
ing should be Of great interest.
The function performed by postal saw
ings banks, as the republican candidate
truly says, is much more comprehensive
than that performed by ordinary banks.
To show how badly the people Of this ma
tion as a whole are served by the existing
system of savings banks Mr.. Taft points
out that of the 50, 10000. 900 now in these
institutions 80 per cent Is in New England.
SO per cent In New York and p per cent
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois. Iowa and
California, leaving only 8 per cent for all
the other states of the union.
II is clear that postal banks in this coun-
try would place at the disposal of business
interests many millions of dollars which
now are hidden away in domestic deposit
tories of many descriptions or in safety
vaults or which are sent abroad for de-
Iosit IN foreign postal ank Those who
now place money in other banks would
continue to do so in a vast majority of in
stances IL postal banks were established,
as the latter pay less interest than do other
savings banks. On the other hand, thou
sands of persons would acquire the bank
ing habit through the placing of small
savings in postal banks and soon would
transfer their accounts to the banks pay
ing higher interest. Mr.. Taft points out
that in those countries where postal banks
are most successful one-third OF the de-
p~ositors are minors and two-thlrds are
working people.

TAFT IN owhB1.

While Judge Taft is no stranger to
Omaha, having been here before as
secretary of war, his coming visit Is
the first since his nomination for the
presidency. Mr. Taft comes to Omaha
this time as the candidate for the high
est ONCE within the gift of the people,
the nominee OF the great political
party which has ruled the destinies of
the republic almost without Interrupt
tion for nearly fifty years.
MIR. Taft comes here as an exemplsr
of the distinctive policies which have
characterized the Roosevelt admins
t%ration, which he helped largely to
shape and to make effective, and
pledged personally and by his party to
continue those policies when he is at
the helm of the government.
Both the personality of Mr.. Taft and
the representative character in which
he comes call for a cordial greeting
and general outpouring to hear what
he has to say to the people of Omaha
and South Omaha on the issues and
incidents of the campaign.
OF the millions of people il our
great country only a comparatively
few will be privileged to hear the
candidate himself, and Omaha people
should regard themselves as specially
favored with this opportunity.
Remember that these meetings are
open to all and that each and every
m is personally invited.

THE OLD PARKEn GANG

Ihh ULD FARM BU bdNO'
In the preliminary stages of the
fight for delegates to the democratic
national convention at Denver, Mr..
Bryan and his enthusiastic supporters
were much wrought up over evidences
of activity on the part of the eastern
democrats who had supported Judge
Parker in 1904, Mr.. Bryan charged
that money was being used to prevent
his nomination and he proved it by
declaring that he got his information
from a man who overheard a tele-
phone conversation on the subject"
When the New York democrats, at one
Of the early meetings, refused to de-
clare for Mr.. Bryan, the World-Herald
declared, on April 16, 1908:
These meetings are being engineered by
the satellites of Jim" HILL, Thomas f.
Ryan and by the "Fingy" Corners, Muir
phys, Sheehans and Guffeys, who helped
betray the party four years ago. Gov
ernor Johnson's candidacy Is in the hands
OF the old Parker gang.
Conditions must have changed con
siderably since that time. Judge
Parker, evidently one of the charter
members of 1.-THE old Parker gang" is
supporting Mr.. Bryan and acting as
one of his chief fugelmen in New York.
David r. Francis of Missouri, another
of 1.-The old Parker gang" is a member
OF Mr.. organs advisory committee and
already planning for the nomination
in 1912, when he hopes that Bryan
will have been eliminated by a third
defeat. "Fingy" Corners, another
member of 1.-The old Parker gang" is
chairman of the democratic state COM
mittee in New York and is working
hand in glove with Sheehan, Ryan,
Murphy and the rest of the old
Parker gang that gave Mr.. Bryan the
boot in 1904. Urey Woodson Of Ken
lucky, a member OF the old Parker
gang" is one of the leaders in the
present campaign. ]. T. McGraw. a
West Virginia coal and oil magnate
and a member Of 'the old Parker
gang" Is on Mr.. Bryan's executive
committee this year. Roger Sullivan
of New York and Colonel Guffey of
Pennsylvania, members of the old
Parker gang who were read out of
the party by Mr.. Bryan, have been well
coined back and are patiently waiting
for the final smash and the r~eorganiza-
ton after November 8.
The old Parker gang is very much
In the democratic saddle just now and
Mr.. Bryan is doing his best to forget
what he said about them in 1904 when
trying to prevent them from getting
control, through the election OF Judge
Parker, of the democratic organization

THE BUBON1C pLAGuE.

A California physician, speaking be-
fore the Conference Of State and Pro-
vincial Board of Health of North
America, declared that the Atlantic
and gulf states are in danger of infec-
ton with the bubonic' plague, not
from California but from the spread
of the disease in foreign lands having
communication with our eastern and
southern ports.
1t is difficult TO become alarmed over
the warning, but it cannot be denied
that there is justification for it. Ven
ezula and the Azores are not free from
the recent outbreak of the plague. re.
cent reports showing that the people
of the Azores are rioting because of
the failure of the officials to take proper
precautions against the spread of
the plague. In some sections, the peo-
Pile are starving because their supplies
have been exhausted. The government
at Washington has ordered the touring
battleship feet to avoid infected ports
inc reports from different sections of
the world show the spread of either
the bubonic plague or the cholera in
many countries. Russia is In the
grasp of cholera and the ineficiency of
the government is clearly demon
strated by it's failure to cope with the
situation. The best that st. Peters
burg can offer is that "the country
looked forward with dread to the sum-
mer of 1909"
While it has been established that
cleanliness is not a preventive of chol-
era. it is equally certain that cleanli
ness and the adoption of sanitary pre-
cautions form the surost safeguard
against the spread of the bubonic
plague. No American city can afford
to refuse to clean up in view of the
prevalence Of the plague in other
countries with which we have close
and frequent communications.
