RoosEvELT's ADVICE TO LABoA.
Presidents Recommendation of Taft
Bound to Count Heavily with
tho Voter.

(From the Labor World, Pittsburgh
President Roosevelt is willing TO
stake his own unparalleled reputation
as a friend Of labor on his declaration
that Judge Taft will be labor's real
friend should lie be elected to the Presi-
dency. President Roosevelt Is abso-
lutely sanguine on this point and the
gravity OF his position and the consc-
quences that will reach far into the
future, and will particularly relate to
his own personal record. must impress
on the mind of every intelligent man
that his words spring from his heart.
Is there wage worker or u trade
union leader In the country who has
reason to doubt the sincerity Of Rooss-
veit? Labor from end to end OF the
United States has adored him and
adores him still as friend for what
he has done. He states most unequiy-
ocally that In everything he has done
for labor Judge Taft has been his will
ing. able and most earnest co-work .r
What better Recommendation of Judge
Taft TO labor than that can be offered?
None whatever.

aoMpERs' CHEAP METHODS.
Judge Taft Shows tho speciousness
Of Attacks Made on Him.

(From Taft's Speech at Waterloo. Ia }
Mr.. Samuel Gompers has already de-
livered the vote to the Democratic
party and that makes II rather hope
less for one who Is struggling for the
Republican party to deal ut all with the
labor question. He seems to have re-
moved 1t from doubt by carrying the
vote In his pocket. He leaves no place
outside for me, Now l venture to think
that the laboring men OF the country
think for themselves and have an In
teiligence that enables them to take
their own Judgment as to the party and
the candidate whom they elect.
II is rather cheap method of at.
tacking a candidate to say that he Ia
opposed to labor, that he Is In favor OF
expressing and tyrannizing labor and
that he has nothing In his heart that
sympathlzes with labor. The only way
you can meet that Is to say that II Is
not SO. and that is what do say. l
yield to no man in my sympathy with
labor or as class, in Its effort to or
ganize to make itself properly powerful
In the community. to maintain its
equality and its level In the struggle
for life and in dealing with capital on
those issues where its interests and
those OF capital are opposed

TAFT STRIKES BANK Insurance.
Shows the 0laring Fallacies Of the
Scheme by Plain Reasoning.

tFrom Taft's Minneapolis Speech.)
Two objections are made TO the con-
clusion that an enforced guaranty sys-
disaster In banking. One Is that the
government examinations would pre-
vent. and the other Is that IL is an
insult to the banking community to as.
same that the national bankers OF the
country. In view of their present high
character. would yield 20 the tempta-
ton to recklessness presented by the
system.
Il answer to the first objection that
the government examinations do not
now prevent banks from falling; that
II II difficult for bank examiner 10
discover the unwise reckiessness and
speculative loans. and that often such
loans are made between government
examinations. and then the evil n Done
and cannot be remedied by strict SUPER
vision.
Second, while fully concede the
general high character of the bankers
throughout this country, my point is
that the opportunity to obtain deposits
and invest them on very little capital
afforded by the guaranty security will
attract into the banking business men
Of no experience and of speculative
tendencies, and will distinctly lower the
tone OF the banking business.
Zone Of the great merits claimed for
the enforced guaranty Of deposits IL
that It will prevent panics. 1t ID sum

DISCARDED ISSUES.
Bryan's Alarm About "Nilitarism'
Has Faded.
(From the Kansas City Times.)

(From the Kansas City Times.)
In 1900 Mr.. Bryan made an ominous
noise about "militarism." He conceived
the idea-or at least advanced the
theory-that because the country had
acquired the Philippines and Porto Rico
and because provision had been made
for an increase In the regular army. the
Republican party was about to put into
effect policy of world conquest; that
this was to be made military nation !;
that the ideals OF the young men were
to be turned from the arts Of peace
to the arts OF war, and even that the
enlargement OF the army was to be
standing menace to the cause Of Amer
lean labor.
And all this because the standing
army, which consisted Of 5000 men
when the Spanish-American war BE-
came Inevitable, was to be increased to
a possible maximum Of 100000. The
reason for this latitude OF Increase was,
of course, the necessities 10 impressive
ly revealed through the experiences OF
the war with Spain, and Mr.. Bryan had
reason to know Just what those neces-
stiles were.
Since Mr.. Bryan's fearful and won
derful alarm about "militarism' the
army has been increased from 25.000 to
10000 men. Not one Of the evils pre-
dicted by Mr.. Bryan has attended this
enlargement. Would Mr.. Bryan reduce
the army? II 30. why does he not de-
mand a reduction? Why did he not put
a reduction plank In his platform? Or,
does his silence this year on the sub
ject of "militnrism" mean that Nj.
Bryan now admits the absurdity Of his
position In 1900?

Political Snapshots.

Mr.. Bryan Is making strenuous ef-
fort to confine the discussion Of issues
in this campaign to the declarations OF
the Denver platform. His attitude In
this matter is sadly inconsistent with
the claim which he has made for twelve
years that he is the fearless champion
Of the people. When he pleads immun-
ity from attack on any issue which Is
not in the Denver platform he comedies
that he II q statesman afraid OF his
own record. But Mr.. Bryan cannot e.

he has done. but for what he proposed
to DO, what he did his utmost to &C

Regarding Mr.. Bryan's past record In

fact that hitherto he has not been per-

That judgment Is severe. and Will
hurt the feelings Of many of "
Bryan's friends. but who can doubt its
accuracy?
Mr. Bryan's scheme, which he calls
guarantee. Is an insurance proposition.

all at the very same rate. The real
working OF the scheme amounts to this:
the stockholders of an Indiana bank

are not allowed to see) Of, say, an
Idaho bank are and shall continue to
