PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT AND
SINGLE STATEHOOD

Governor Kibbey has just re.
turned from Washington, ID. O.,
and brought message to the peo-
pie of Arizona that President
Roosevelt is heartily in favor OF
single statehood for Arizona, and
that within the next year Arizona
is sure to be admitted.
We learn from other sources
that President Roosevelt was mis-.
led by representative Republicans
who convinced him that the people
of Arizona were in favor of joint,
statehood.
In other words President Roose.

Federal appointments, and believed
what they said in the matter with
out troubling himself further, but
he now believes that his informants
gave him wrong information.
Arizona wants Statehood be-
cause it is her right. Because she
wants TO be in position to govern
herself and get clear of the corpor-
ate interests that have IN the past
and are now throttling her chances
for progress.
AS State Arizona would select
from its own citizens men to fill
the public offices which are now
given to broken.down politicians
who are passed their usefulness in
their own States, but have to be
placed in payment for their work
for the party leaders, who have in
huence with the Administration.
No one was in favor of JOINT
Statehood, but the grafters, who
realized that the admission of Ari-
zona into the Union as a single
State would mean the loss of their
positions, while on the other hand
by advocating the unpopular side,
joint Statehood, which they know
would never carry, their jobs
would last longer. And this
was the class that convinced
President Roosevelt that the peo
pie of Arizona were in favor of the
scheme to be joined with New

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY

awe are not likely to have a
walkover in 1908, and this is not
the time for dissensions within the
party ranks."- M. Shaw.
This obvious truth, uttered by
the recent Secretary of the Treas
ury. and referring especially to
the Republican situation IN Iowa,
is equally applicable to the coun-
try at large. Party lines are
broken everywhere. All well in
formed Republicans like Mr.. Shaw
koenly appreciate that no walk
over" is in prospect for 1908.
Discussions are the rule, not
the exception. A great party is
working at cross-purposes. 1t is
at loggerheads as to men, wide
apart as to measures; uncertain,
undetermined and afraid.
1t is as a house divided against
itself.
Six months before Harrison's
overwhelming defeat in 1892, pos
sibly party conditions were as bad
as they are today, but certainly no
worse.
Roosveltism is almost, if not
quite, as strong as ever it was, IN
spite of adverse material condi-
tions; but Rooseveltism, as every
body knows, is not Republicanism,
and the only Republican who, ap-
parently, can keep alive the whole
of this Rooseveltian sentiment
Roosevelt himself-has eliminated
himself from the presidential
equation.
Mr.. Shaw puts it mildly enough
when he says 1--WE are not likely
to have walkover in 1908" Re
publicans of somewhat less prom
inence are saying, ave shall be
lucky if we escape defeat" They
are fast coming to believe, in fact
that but one of their number
Hughes, of New York-can safely
insure the party's salvation, and
Hughes, of New York, strange tt
say, is not to be permitted to have
the nomination, if the admlnistra
tion can prevent it.
Hence the clouds now lowering
over the g. o. p.
If the Democratic Party is real
ly lacking in optimism at this mo

be, we can account for it only up
on one of two theories,-eitber i

Deposit Insurance
For National Banks

There being as yet no organiza
ton behind the movement for
bank-deposit insurance, no specific
plan has been put forward with
any show of authority. While the
principle is simple enough, there
is naturally considerable diversity
of view as to the best method for
Its application and as to the safe
guards which should be provided
by legislation. Referring now ex-
cluslvely to national banks, preva
lent opinion is fairly well agree d
upon the following outline of
measure designed to create sys-
tenn of compulsory mutual deposit
insurance by national banks under
government control.
tits proposed that Congress shall
by suitable legislation, to be ad.
ministered by the Comptroller. of
the Currency advised by the Sec
retary of the Treasuary, provide
for an initial assessment to be lev
led and collected upon the capital
stock of all national banks, equal
to specified percentage upon the
average deposits Of each bank for
the proceeding year This assess
ment will be collected annually
for five years, at the expiration of
which time the insurance or guar
anty feature of the law will be in
operation.
The proceeds of the assessm en- is
referred to will constitute a nation
al bank deposit guaranty fund, to
be held in the custody of the Treas
urer of the United States and used
for the purposes of the law. From
this fund, whenever a national
bank fails, its depositors will be
paid in full as soon as their claims
can be duly verified. The Comp.
troller of the Currency, as now,
will! take over the estate Of the
failed bank, liquidate its affairs,
enforcing if necessary the stock.
holders liability; the proceeds Of
the liquidation will be devoted
first, to paying the cost of settle
ment, and, second to making good
the guaranty fund for the draft
made upon it to pay depositors
the surplus, if any, to be paid over
to stockholders. In case the bant
assets should fail to recoup tht
guaranty fund, the resulting defici
in the fund will be covered frou
future assessments to be leviet
when the fund falls below a speci
fed level.
Under such plan the Govern
ment evidently incurs no pecuniary
liability whatever, and only suci
outlay for clerical service as ma,
incidentally attend the custody o
the guaranty fund. On the othe
hand, the integrity and sufficienc,
of the guaranty fund is at all time
assured by the power and duty o
the Comptroller of the Currenc,
to keep that fund intact by any re
quired number of successive assess
ments on all solvent nationa
banks. In this way the guarant,
fund is rendered adjustable to an,
aggregate of bank losses, wbethe
greater or less than anticipated.
One conclusive check the Gov
ernment would have on imprope
banking would be its power pub
licly to withdraw from any un6
bank the insurance privilege, afte

INHERITANCE TAX FOR THE
PRESENT

Aside from the remedies which
are aimed at specific causes, says
The Commoner, there are some
which are now intended to deal
with conditions as they now ex-
ist. The inheritance tax, for in
stance, has been proposed as a
means for compelling the holders
of excessive wealth to turn over a
part of 1t TO the Government at
death. There can be no doubt OF
the right of the state governments
to regulate, as they will, the de-
scent Of property, and many of the
states now collect an inheritance
tax. 1t is probable that the Su-
preme Court would uphold feder-
al Inheritance tax, although since
the adverse decision on the income
tax it is hazardous to say in ad
vance just what the position OF the
court might be upon a question OF
taxation. But while a federal in
heritance tax is justified by exist
ing conditions, it can hardly be
defended as a permanent policy
1t is advanced as means OF reach
ing fortunes already swollen, but
it is wiser to prevent swollen for
tunes than to prevent them to be
accumulated and then seize upon a
percentage as penalty. If the
federal government will cease to
grant privileges to favored individ
uals, and content itself with the
equal protection of all, there will
be few fortunes large enough to
constitute a menace.
An income tax has also beer
suggested as a means of reaching
fortunes abnormally large. While
a graduated income tax can be de-
Tended as a permanent part of oul
fiscal system. AS both our import
duties and our internal revenue
taxes are collected on consumption
and, therefore, bear most heavily
upon the poor, we need an income
tax to equalize the burdens o
government and to compel wealth
to bear Its share.
Upon o careful consideration o
the subject one must be convinced
that the remedy for swollen for
tunes is to be found in a return tc
the Jeffersonian doctrine: equa
rights to all and special privileges
to none. Where we find unearneC
fortunes, we find that in nearly
every case they rest upon favor'
granted by the government, ant
in too many instances the injustice
has been aggravated by inequali
ties in the tax law, so that tht
very ones who owe their grea
wealth to the generosity of th'
government shirk their taxes anC
shift to the shoulders Of others tn,
burdens which they themselves
should bear.
Now that public attention hal
| been drawn to the ethics Of money
making, it is to be hoped that th'
awakening will result in the in
auguration of such thorough re
form that all citizens will be pu
upon the same footing and treated
with equal consideration in thu
creation of wealth and in the pay
ment of the taxes necessary to sup
port the national government.
