Play in Speculations in Loaning
Money to Gamblers.
A lively colloquy between Senators
Depew and Tillman took place when
| the South Carolina senator attempt
ed to have the senate pass his resolu-
ton calling on the comptroller of
the currency to furnish detailed
statement Of all loans made by ma
tional banks in New York upon col
lateral security during the 6 months
from June l to December 1, 1907.
Mr.. Aldrich suggested that as
drawn the measure had many objec-
tionable features, but he thought a
resolution would e framed to give
the information desired if it should
be referred to the committee on f.
nance
MI. Tillman demanded to kuow the
objection to the resolution, Mr.. Aid
rich replying that the chief objection
was the provision calling for the
names of people making loans.
81 think that would be the very
worst thing we could do in the pres
ent condition." said Mr.. Aldrich.
Mr.. Tillman disavowed any special
purpose in having the names and Mr..
Hale asked that the matter be al
lowed to go over so that the chair
man of the finance committee and
Mr. Tillman might agree on form
of resolution. Mr.. Tillman said he
did not want to go into the pri-
yate affairs of banks but merely
wanted to get at the facts concern
ing stock gambling and the loaning
of funds Of depositors for stock
gambling purposes.
Mr.. Depew said that what was done
in New York was done elsewhere
and the inquiry might be extended
to other places.
But" shouted Mr.. Tillman, "mos'
states have closed their bucketshops
and New York has not shut up It's
bucketshop or gambling house thai
is swallowing up the little fellows.
South Carolina would be the trs1
to suffer If the New York exchange
were closed" said MIR. Depew, "anc
her industrial institutions would fee
the effect Of loss Of credit II Ne"
York is hampered."
81 have never discovered that Ne"
York is supplying money from dis
interested motives" retorted Mr
Tillman; "we pay for everything We
get"
Mr.. Depew said 1t was safe to say
that a majority Of demand loans are
made for legitimate purposes
added that he was ready to cooperate
in the suppression Of gamDIng II
New York.
The resolution was then offered tc
the committee on finance.

TRYING TO FOOL THEM.
Roosevelt and Taft Beg for the Ne
gro Vote.

Jack McGhee in his letter to The
State from Washington says the ne
gro tickling plant Of the Ohio plat
form, upon which Taft is to run for
the presidency. and which it Is un-
derstood was drafted by one I. H.,
at the White House, is causing con-
siderable comment in Washington.
This plank is to cut down representa-
ton in congress Of the Southern
States because Of the disfranchise-
ment of the negro. 1t has often been
agreed by Southern statesmen that
If the North will frankly admit that
the Southern States have a right to
disfranch,st. the negro then there
would be 10 objection to cutting
down the representation accordingly
But there has been no disfranchise-
ment of the negro bcause he Is a
negro, but because he Is ignorant or
properties.

While fire ragged in the fourth

Friday two thousand pupils marched
from the building singing "Ameri-

teachers. The children were engaged
in their singing exercises when the
fire gong rang, and they continued
to sing as they marched out of the
building.
There was no sign Of panic and
a few minutes after the first alarm
was sounded all the children were
assembled in the school yard wait
ing the word of dismissal. Forum
ately all of the smaller children we're

At Asheville on Friday application
was made to Judge Pritchard in the
United States Court by counsel in
the case of Fleischmann & Co. VS.
w. J. Murray, ct ais, and Wilson Dis
tilling Company VS.. w. j. Murray, ct
ais, for the appointment of tenn
porary receiver for the South Caro-
lima dispensary fund.
The defendant commissioners were
represented at the hearing by Daniel
w. Rountree of Atlanta, Ga, who
waived the required notice of motion
as to the Fleischmann Company, and
after hearing the petition, the Court
granted an order appointing the de-
PENDANTS, Messrs. w. j. Murray, G.
Il Henderson, Avery Patton, John
McSween and B.. F. Arthur, as tenn
porary receivers for the dispensary
funds now in their posess,on.
The petition upon which the mo-
ton was granted stated that bill
had been introduced in the South
Carolina Legislature directing the
defendant commissioners to return
the funds now in their hands to the
State Treasurer.
The commissioners were imme-
diately notified Of their appointments
as receivers, but up to late hour
Friday night only one response had
been received, that Of Mr.. B. F. Ar
thur, who stated that he would ac-
cept and would act as receiver.
Dr.. Murray has declined, since to
accept would be to admit the juris-
diction of the Federal Court. Messrs.
Patton, McSween and Henderson will
not accept. Whether or not Govern
or Ansel will call an extra session Is
now the question.

WHO CREATED THE PENSION

Nearly all Union veterans voee with
the party of Lincoln and Grant. the
party which created and maintained
/ the pension system under which
nearly four thousand million dollars
have been paid out to survivors OF
the Union armies and to the widows
and orphans of soldiers who have
passed away, 1t may interest Union
veterans to know that the democratic
state of Virginia discriminates against
hem by exemrting from the poll
tax as a prerequisite t o vote those only
who serve in the army or navy OF
the confederacy, no similar exemp-
ton being provided for Union sol
diers, Of whom there are many in the
state. This is quite a recent change
IN the constitution of Virginia, hay-
ing gone into force in 1904, when the
American people showed what they
thought OF democratic rule in nation
and state by piling up a record-break.
ing majority for Roosevelt and Fair
banks. There is every indication that
Taft and Sherman VIII be borne to
success on another tidal wave, and
survivors of the Union armies, who
still number a very large proportion
the electorate, will undoubtedly
vote for the republican party, which
has always stood by the veterans, and
against the party which holds the
Union soldier to be less worthy of the
ballot than the former confederate.

As q lawyer, too, Mr.. Taft may not
have realized that to laymen the para
mount duty OF a Judge to enforce the
law as 1t is n not as he thinks Il
should be is not always fully realized.
Mr.. Taft's record in labor cases the
Tribune intends to discuss more fully,
but on this point intelligent workmen
ought not TO go astray. OF all men,
the union man should honor and de.
fend the UPRIGHT Judge.
An unnecessary modeaty may have
prevented Mr.. Taft from discussing At
more length what Mr.. Gompers and
Mr.. Bryan studiously fgnore-Mr.
Taft's record as a practical employer.
For Mr.. Taft 10 secretary OF war
and as governor general OF the Philip
pines has been one OF the greatest em.
ployers OF labor. in the nation. The
union man who wishes not to be led
astray by unjust charges, who wishes
70 know the truth about this social
ed enemy OF labor, would do well tn
inquire what MI. Taf's attitude has
been towards labor on the Panama
| canal and In the islands. The Steam

its enemy, for he is an honorary mem
