Tie following certificate published
In The Commoner is distinctly inter-
esting at the present time:
Guthrie, Okla, June -, 190S.-The
depositOrs' guaranty law was passed
Dec. IL, 1907, and was made operative
Feb. II, 1908.
Bank reports show that the effect
of the law began weeks before the law
WAS in actual operation.
There are now 5j1 banks under the
law in this state, including "a national
banks. There are 255 unsecured banks
tall %natiOnalsD in the state.
The dates of statement calls were
as follows:
For national banks, Dec. 3, 1907;
Feb. 4, 1908, and May ii, 1903.
For state banks Dee. IL 1907; Feb.
20, 1908, and May IA, 1908.
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 100000. State banks (all Sc
cured) for the period from Dec. IL,
1907, to Feb. II, 1908, show an increase
in deposits of SIG, 749.47.
For the period ending May II. Sc
cured national banks show an increase
In deposits of S645,413.61.
'State banks (all secured for the
period ending May IA, show an in
crease in deposits of $2,35j ,G02.14
For the period ending May IA the
unsecured banks (all %nationals) lost in
deposits S6O0.S07.S6.
Deposits Of state funds show a de
crease in both classes of banks as fol-
lows:
In secured banks ..........$ 21.533.50
In unsecured banks ....... GOO, 919. 76
Total increase in deposits in all Sc
cured banks. December to May, per re-
ports, $4,237, 1922.
Total decrease OF deposits in all u n
secured banks, December to May, per
reports, 81, 100.S0T.S6.
Total decrease of deposits of state
funds in both classes of banks last
period S691, 1926.
$50 it is apparent that there are
S3.S2S,410.62 more individual deposits
in banks in Oklahoma than before the
depositors' guaranty law was passed
and the secured banks have been
beneficiaries.

THE ANSWERS.


The answer is found in the prevail
ing good prices for grain, corn, hogs,
cattle, hay and all the products
of the farm, together with the
fact that since the date Of Can
didate Bryan's crushing speech,
Western farm lands have doubled In
value, and thousands of tenant" farm
ers of that date have become prosper
Gus home-owners. filling their own land
in peace, happiness and plenty. Under
the National Irrigation Act, and the
Republican conservation movement. the
West is soon to be the intense agricul-
tural and horticultural producing area
Of the United States.

1.-THE surrender Of the present Presi-
dent (Roosevelt) to corporate in1u-
ences furnishes an excellent proof OF
the wisdom Of Judge Parker In making
the statement he has. But President
Roosevelt stands for militarism. :

Down to an Economical
Administration,

The federal administration last year
spent 1000, 900 more than it spent
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:
"As in our private life so in our ma
tional finances, the year 1907 seems to
have been of exceeding cost and
expenditure. The government state
emf at the end of the fiscal year, June
80. 1908, shows a deficit of $59,656,36l
and the increased deficit in July and
August amounting to SIS, T2S,0O0 brings
the total deficit for the preceding four
teen months up to $SS,434,361, with re-
duced revenues of $~65,O00,o00. The
year preceding We had a surplus Of
$S1. 100000.
''The government disbursement was
1853 1852, 124, being in excess of the
revenues in any year except 1906 and
1907 and S54, 100000 more than was
spent in the year when we conducted
the war against Spain and paid the
expense of landing armies in Cuba,

The Methodist conference continues
to denounce Speaker Cannon because
he refuses to let proposed laws have
a hearing. 1t is all right as far as 1t
goes to vote against Cannon for his
d~ictation as TO what legislation shall on
shall not be considered, and it is es-
sential also to vote out the Republican
party that makes Cannon's boss-ship
possible. Defeat of Cannon is good,
but would not remedy the situation
unless the Republicans are turned out.
If Republicans win, and Cannon is de-
feated, the same iron rules will be car
ried out by a Sherman or a Dalzell or
some other Republican pupil Of Can
mons.

F., SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.
Experience of Southern Man.

ExperIenCe OF a SOQtISTII Nidt
please allow me to thank the orig
inator of Postum, which in my case,
speaks for ITSELF writes a Fla. man.
81 formerly drank so much coffee
during the day that my nervous sys-
tenn was almost a wreck. My physl-
clan told me to quit drinking it but
l had to have something to drink, so
I tried Postum.
ITO my great surprise l saw quite
change in my nerves in about III
DAYS. That was q year ago and now
nv nerves are steady and | don't have
those bilious sick headaches which
regularly had while drinking coffee.
POSTUM seems to have body-build-
ing properties and leaves the head
clear. And l do not have the bad taste
in my mouth when 1 get up mornings.
When Postum is boiled good and
strong, it is far better in taste than
coffee. My advice to coffee drinkers
is to try Postum and be convinced.
