PROTECTING DEPOSITS IN BANKS
and osIshomais Proof Of erysn's
Position.

One OF the planks OF the Denver
platform favors guaranteed bank de.
posits. Mr.. Bryan addressed the Ohio
legislature In February favoring guar
anteed deposits. Former Governor
Herrick subsequently addressed the
legislature in reply TO Mr.. Bryan, Cd.
posing any such protection for banks
and bank depositors.
Mr.. Taft. in his speech OF accep-
lance. denounced the plank OF the
Denver platform. which declares for
a national law for banks similar to
the Oklahoma law for state banks,
thereby coinciding in the views OF Mr..
Herrick and opposing the views OF Mr.
Bryan.
Below are two dispatches showing
what Mr.. Bryan stands for and what
Mr. Taft stands for.

Csmpaiun Funds.

"We welcome Mr.. Taft to this ad-
vanced ground" said Mr.. Bryan in one
of his numerous interviews since the
Denver convention. The ground refer
red to Is Mr. Taft's statement that no
campaign contributions would be re-
ceived from corporations. Mr.. Bryan
intended to convey the impression that
Mr.. Taft had come to that determina-
ton after the Denver convention. In
that the Democratic peerless one" is
not honest. Mr.. Taft is a law abiding
citizen. Such contributions are unlaw-
ful, made so by a law passed by Re
publican congress at the instance of n
Republican administration of which
Judge Taft was a part six months be-
fore the Denver convention. Be hon
est, Mr.. Bryan, if you can.

Things Bryan Would Foraet.

The most important, because the
most curiously novel, feature of Mr..
Bryans address is his apotheosls of
the party platform. A new doctrine of
infallibility is embodied in these SEN
fences at the very beginning of Mt
Bryans speech:
A platform is binding as to what it
omits as we'll as to what it contains.
A platform announces n party's posi-
ton on the questions which are at is
sue and an official is not at liberty TO
use the authority vested in him to urge
personal views which have not been
submitted to the voters for their ap-
proval.
1t is natural that Mr.. Bryan should
disavow certain omitted issues such
as free silver, government ownership
Of railroads, the initiative and referen-
DUN, attacks upon the courts and 9TH
er theories which at times he sanction
ed overhastily in the past. But he is
unfortunate In his manner of express
ing that disavowal.
A party platform is not political
holy writ. The American people
choose for president man, not
clerk, to carry out the orders of con
vention committee. \ platform is not
a prophetic code of conduct, but
summary of basic principles, to be al
tered. amended or enlarged according
to the country's needs.-Philadelph

Union Labor Vote.

Hon. William II. Buchanan is one of
the leading union men of western New
York and in 1907 was the Democratic
candidate for assemblyman in Chau-
tauGua county. This is what he has to
say OF the effort of Mr.. Gompers to
turn the labor vote over to Mr. Bryan:
II am a union labor man. and want
to say further that no man can carry
the labor vote into the Democratic
camp. l know how union labor men
feel in this city, and three-fourths of
them will stand by the Republican
party because only in that way have
they the assurance of freedom from
the business disturbance that Mt Bry-
an promises for at least four years If
he can be elected. We workingmen
can't earn wages if statesmen are put
in office to disturb business and make
trouble"

DENIES THAT BRYAN
"COULD DO NO HARM" ."
Congressman Burke Says Office of
President Is Infinitely More Powerful

Congressman Burke Says Office of
President is Infinitely More Powerful
Than Congress.
Congressman James Francis Burke
Of Pittsburg in an address on THE
Powers of the President" says:
The American people can make no
greater mistake than to elect Mr.. Bry-
an on the assumption that he can do
no harm in the face of an adverse SEN
ate. AS between the executive and
legislative departments of the govern
ment, the former has infinitely greater
power to rule and ruin than the latter
"Mr. Taft and Mr.. Bryan IRE wholly
different types of men. Each pos
sesses a strong individual character,
which would certainly assert itself in
the White House. What either of
these men would do during a four
years term in the White House is
causing as much anxiety among
thoughtful Americans as the mere
matter of the election alone.
"As a disturber of moneys the pres
ident is without rival in the world.
lnrOuSn tne agencies under his con-
troll he will this year disburse billion
dollars, showing the great things we
are doing in adding to the unparalleled
list of the worlds achievements.
In view of the fact that during the
fifteen years of Bryan leadership the
states controlled by his party have de-
creased from % to u, the number of
senator's from As to 81, the number of
representatives in congress from 900
to 164 and in that time the Democratic
party was in control of the ground,
whereas it is now, as a consequence of
his teachings, hopelessly hetero-
geneous mass of Populistic elements,
the American people can see little pros
poets of a constructive policy if Mr.
Bryan should succeed"

CLEvELAND'S LAST
WORD TO PARTY
Praised Taft and Called For
Elimination Of BryaniSmL
Especial Correspondence
Harrisburg, Pa. Sept. 5


Pennsylvania Bryanites are greatly
exercised over the publication of
Grover Cleveland's last political doc
ument, in which he forecasted the
election of Judge Taft and recorded
his opinion that the national Democ
racy will never regain its prestige un
til Bryanism shall be eliminated.
There is no doubt that these de-
clarations have had far reaching in
fiuence among the conservative ele.
ment of the Democracy of the Key.

The Cleveland article was the first
of series which the late eX-president
intended to write, but which his
death cut short. 1t was copyrighted
by the New York Times after permis
sion to print it had been obtained
from Frederick S. Hastings, executor
of Mr.. Cleveland's estate.
In this article Mr.. Cleveland among
other things said:
with the other parties disorganized
redeveloping and procreating, the Re.
publican party is certain, though with
a considerably lessened strength, to
move on to safe victory sustained by
the popular support Of reforms which
should not rebound 10 its glory solely,
those reforms having been the work
of decent men of all parties.
Personally and officially have had
the opportunity of knowing many
things concerning Mr.. Taft that were
not n matter of general knowledge,
and with a keen interest have watch
ed his large share in the conduct OF
our national affairs in very recent
years. His excellence as a federal
to be underestimated or overemphasiZ-
ed for should he come to the presi-
Dental chair the qualities which made
him a judge of high ability, which
know him to have been, will be the
most needful to him as president of
the United States. His high ideals of
honesty and of relative justive, his
great capacity for severe labor and
his humorous wisdom in the face of
the serious problem are attributes
equally valuable and commendatory to
a people, seeking him in whom they
may repose the trust of their collec-
tive interests while they turn their in
creased attention to their pressing
individual demands.
After discussing problems resulting
from national expansion, continuing,
he said:
Has important Qualifications.
"These questions are fruitful of
trouble and perturbation, and the pri-
mary requisite of the man or men who
must deal with them is an abundant
knowledge of the people of the outly-
ing domain. That Mr.. Taft is posses
sed of this knowledge as is no other
man in the country is hardly to be
denied; granted that he has had ex-
traordinary opportunities, he has
shown himself able to improve those
opportunities in a manner which it is
not eXtravagant to say will be his
