The Lesson or 1t.

The Landis fine, even if no dollar of
it is ever collected, will have served a
useful purpose. 1t will have served
as a sharp notice to the greatest cor
porations in the country that they
like their smaller fellows and like in
dividuals. must yield absolute obed-
ience to the law. The old days of re-
batting, of the crushing of competition
through the securing of unfair ad-
vantage in railroad rates, and of a
cynical disregard Of the law on the
part OF rich men, are past.
The great fine may never be collect
ed. But if the old ways are persisted
in, there will come time when cul-
pritS will be caught who cannot plead
a more technical, unintentional eva
sion of the law. The rebate must 20.

In society the only law that VIII pre-

magnate must be reminded that in his

General Prosperity Levying on Idle
Cars.

Within three weeks the number OF
idle cars in the United States has de-
creased by 3o,31l. This Isl very smart
improvement when it is considered
that the total number of idle cars in
this country last week reached 225, 600.
The rapid picking up OF business will
continue, beyond much doubt. until
next year is well advanced Crops
have only begun to move. Every part
of the country reports ayield of un-
cXampled richness and there is no
signy of falling of in foreign de-
mand.
On numerous occasions the Times
has pointed out the important fact
that the recent panicky condition was
purely artificial. There was no for
eign war, 10 entanglemcnt, no crop
failure, no plague to interfere with
the country's steady commercial pres
perity. In fact, the nation had grown
so prosperous that it became some

bit ratified. 1t was tired. IL needed
a period Of rest. The rest has been
taken, and, with every vital condition
right, activity has been renewed.
Should Mr.. Bryan, by a chance
which now seems remote, come in for
success at the November election, the
country undoubtedly would suffer a
bit of reverse, which would continue
effective until business got its bear
ingS. On the other hand, the election
of Mr.. Taft, which seems fairly GER
tain, would mean that there would be
no interruption. In either event there
is nothing the matter with the United

THAT GUARANTEE LAW.
Oklahoma's Fad Develops Novel
Kinks in Practice.

Apparently Mr.. Bryan has dropped
his latest pet fiscal issue almost at the
inception Of the campaign. We refer
to the guarantee of bank deposits.
And it is no wonder Mr.. Bryan has
dropped it.
Down in Oklahoma. the state where
Mr.. Bryan's friend, Charles N. Has-
kell, is governor, they have baris
deposit guarantee law. 1t is admins
tered by banking commissioner-an
appointee of Governor Haskell.
Recently this commissioner refused
to grant charters to two new bauks on
the ground they were not needed. lie
said the banking facilities Of the towns
where these banks were to be located
were ample to accommodate the pub
lie. But one of the banks appealed to
court.
Logan county circuit court has ruled
the act does not confer power upon
the commissioner to reject applica-
tions simply because the field is oc-
cupied. The commissioner, however,
has appealed to the supreme court.
and AYERS these applicants have no
knowledge of the banking business.
1t remains to be seen whether this
new plea is sufficient to bar the new
banks from obtaining a charter.
Meanwhile new banks are being or
/ ganized at IA rate never before heard
of. One town, with less than 800
population, has two national banks and
one state bank. A new state bank
has been organized. Another town
of less than 500 population has four
banks. and another desires to break m.

a new bank necessarily has the same

methods will be introduced, especially
by those who "have no kuow!od-c-"
etc. And they understand they are

which means his loans.
So, in Oklahoma, the guarantar OF

Bryan'S Blunder,

Resumably Mr. Bryan did it unwit.
tlngly, but he did it just the same.
when he gave the president such
fine opening to enter the campaign.
1t must have occurred to him, as it
did to the rest of the country, that the
presidents letter to some far-oir OBJ
security in Montana, recommending
Mr.. Taft for president, was a nice
enough letter, but that it did not fall
on the land like torch on dry
prairie. The reason was that the oc-
casion seemed manufactured Now
Mr.. Bryan has given the president an
occasion that is not manufactured.
and, with his usual political acumen.
the president stepped right up and
turned around-but is not likely to 90
right out again. On the contrary, he
will stay to be thorn in Mr. Bryans
side.
Mr.. Bryan has made tactical mis-
take in calling Mr.. Roosevelt into the
campaign, because Mr.. Bryan chance
of election depends entirely upon his
ability tn detach a number of Roose-
welt repu blicans in the west from the
standard of Mr.. Taft, on the theory
that Mr.. Bryan more nearly repre-
sents Mr.. Roosevclt's policies than the
presidents S own party candidate. Tn
doubtedly there we're in the early
stages of the campaign, thousands OF
such republicans. 1t was their eX-
lstence and attitude that caused the
republican campaign to move upon
leaden heels. The same cause made
the democratic campaign move for
ward with swing and pace that gave
republicans the >hiyers. About all
MIR. Bryan had to do was to soOthc
the presiden., tclepatIicaIly, and the
trick might have been turned.
But Mr.. Bryan either did not sense
the situation or else, sensing il, could
not control his ycarnings to get into a
personal combat with the president.
a generous hearted man. Mr., Bryan
flew to the defense Of the ignOh'c
Governor Haskell. whom he had been
deceived into recommending for treas
urer 1t was to the credit of Mr..
Bryan's heart that he felt he SHOULD
defend Governor HASKELL, IL was not
to the credit of his head that he did
not see further into Governor Haskell
from the first. The man is a specOu~
demagogue OF the type that any man
with a handful of wits would have
| spotted at the second encounter. But,
having appointed him, MIR. Bryan de.
| Tended him: and, in defending him,
has made the unparalleled blunder Of
opening the door for President RoOsa-
Velt's entrance into the campaign.

HOW A PRESIDENT FEELS.
Some Of the Late Mr.. CIeveIand's Views
on This Subject.

"a sensitive man is not happy
as President" said he. eft is
fight, fight, fight all the time.
He is the target of every kind of
calumy. Everything he does is
open to misconstructlon, His
enemies are incessant. 1t is i'm
possible for him, If he is con.
s%cientious, to keep his friends. L
looked forward to the close of my
term as q happy release from care
But [ am not sure that I wasn't
more,unhappy out Of office than in.
A term in the presidency accus-
toms g man to great duties. He
gets used to handling tremendous
enterprises, to organizing forces
that may affect at once and
directly the welfare of the world.
After the long exercises of power,
the ordinary affairs of life seem
petty and commonplace. An ex-
President practising law or going
into business is like a locomotive
hauling q delivery wagon. He
has a sense of proportion. The
concerns of other people and even
affairs seem too small to be worth
bothering about. [ thought

EELS GOT The MILK.
Interesting Yarn Told at a Recent Gather
Ing of North Carolina Farmers.

The Raleigh Times If late date
contained the following story,
which may be accepted by ou1
readears as true-or otherwise:
Col. 81. G. Dockery, of Rock
ingham, who is here attending
thesFarmers' Convention, broke up
the meeting yesterday afternoon
with one of his Munchausen mar
ratives.
Col. Dockery started eff by ask
ing how many of the farmers pres.
ent had ever had black snakes to
relieve their COWS of the milk
On receiving several answers to
his question, he related his pecu-
liar experince. He had noticed
his lows coming in every after
noon without any milk, This
mysterious disappearance of the
milk continued for several days
and no explanation could be given
by the boy attending the COWS.
The boy was given a shotgun and
told to shoot the first man or
beast that even looked croos-eyed
at his cattle. But that afternoon
the COWS came in dry as on pre-
vloua afternoons.
Mr.. Dockery became alarmed
by the state of affairs and deter
mined to find for himself the
cause Of the lack of milk. In &C.
cordance with his termination,
he himself went to the pasture
stayed with the COWS all day and
nothing happened to arouse his
suspicion until the COWS went into
the river to take their afternoon
draught. When they went into
the water their bags we're full,
and when they came out the milk
had disappeared. He remember
ed seeing quite a russle in the
water when the COWS waded in, so
he had all idea what was happen
ing.
Next day he hung some fish
hooks to each of the cows bags
and sat down by the river to await
results. The COWS waded in, the
usual russle accompanying their
entrance, and when they had
finished drinking it was with great
difficulty that they came out of
the water. To the surprise of
everybody around, about a dozen
huge cells were hanging to each
COW. The convention stampeded
and a motion to adjourn was pass
ed by acclamation.
