President RooseUeks Reply TO Challenge of Bryan
GfOen Stamp of Approval by the Party Leaders,
SOME HOME THRUSTS

"As an American citizen who
prizes his Americanism and his citi-
zenship far above any question of
partisanship, regard it as a scan
dal and a disgrace that Governor
Haskell should be connected with
the management Of any national
campaign"
you viii have no difficulty in
getting me 10 represent it Alright,
for my sole anxiety is that the
people of the country shall under
stand this attitude clearly, and shall
then condemn it as it should be con-
demned."
you say that you have advocated
more radical measures against pri-
yate monopoIies than either l or my
party associates have been willing
20 undertake"
You have indeed advocated meas
ures that sound more radical, but
they have the prime defect that in
practice they would not work"
I'm my judgment, the measures
you advocate would be wholly in
effective ir' curing d single evil, and
so far as shey had any effect at
all, would merely throw the entire
business of the country into hope
less and utter confusion"
Il put Mr.. Taft's deeds against
your words. 1 ask that Mr.. Taft be
| judged by all his deeds, for he wishes
none Of them forgotten. I ask that
you be judged by the words you
wish remembered, and by the words
that seemingly you and your party
now desire 10 have forgotten"
Ole nlde, the slde on Wulcn j
am obliged 20 say you have placed
yourself, has shown itself to be Just
as much the enemy Of progress as
the other. 1 hold it entirely nat
ural for any great law-defying cor
poration to wish 10 see you placed
in the Presidency rather than Mr..
Taft"

1t was a matter Of common notOriety
about Senator Foraker, as it has long
been a matter OF common notoriety
about Governor Haskell, that he was
the defender and supporter of certain
great corporate interests and, therefore,
hostile to the policies for which this
Administration has stood.
There was no such convincing proof
against Senator Foraker at that time.
however, as there was against Governor
Haskell, when, as you say, he was,
with your approval, made treasurer OF
your campaign committee. But Mr..
Taft refused to be party to the re-
nomination Of Senator Foraker, even
when IL was represented that only thus
could he advance his OWL Interests.

If the Lewiston commercial clst
wants 10 make a record for Itself
and do something that will benefit
the country, let them get in and take
up the grain question and see if they
can accomplish something for the
Clearwater territory in securing for
the farmers a reasonable price for
their grain. Don't stand back on
this question because you might hunt
two or three individuals in you own
city who have been reaping all the
benefits from the labors of the farm

Many a city has been built up or
energy and aggressiveness. Many
a town has waxed mighty through
the efforts of its citizens, when other
towns, equally we'll placed and ad-
vantageously situated, have Ian
guished. Taking this into consider
alton those cities and towns which
have wonderful natural powers and
opportunities should strive to grow
through the development Of these
faculties by the exercise of that same
energy and hard work. The town
that depends on another town TO do
its boosting, when it has facilities of
its own. is on its way to the grave
and its finish is in sight.

as there will be no fear whatever
of any of the depositors losing
their money. The tax of one per
cent will be sufficient to raise plenty
of money to reimburse the state for
all losses 1t will probably sustain as
the loss of hanks In the past from
failure amounts to much less than
one per cent. Under a Law Of this
kind almost all the business traR-
sacted will be done through the
banks and it will be the safest, most
convenient and best. There would
never by an occasion for a run on
any bank by the depositors for their
money. II would also call forth a
great portion of the money that is
held by individuals and not placed
n banks for fear of losing it. The
results obtained from this law will
'e closely watched by other states
md if it is as successful as it prom
ses to be there will be a great num-
'er of other states pass similar laws

THURSDAY. JANUARY 2. 1908


A careful review of the general
conditions on Nezperce prairie at
this time finds them to be in a much
better condition than they we're at
the beginning of the year 1907. A
greater percentage of the farmers,
merchants and business men have
made more money this year than at
any time since the opening of the
reservation, and many of them,
pro6ting by the economy that was to
some extent forced upon them by the
shortage of crops and the low prices
of grain during the past two years,
have put the prairie in most excellent
condition financially. The spirit of
discomfort, which is more or less a
part of the makeup of every person,
is manifes.ing itself on the prairie
less than wei before, and this is the
best barometer of the conditions of
any place or country that can be
found. The public sales of the
farmers have decreased, many of
the mortgages have been paid either
in full or in part and a number of
the farmers have now become lenders
of money instead of borrowers. The .
merchants and business men of Nez-
perez report abetter business during /,
the holiday season than ever before
and cash was paid for the purchases ,
to a greater extent than in former
years. The month of October was ,
a record month for all business in
Nezperce and had it not been for the
financial crisis coming at the end of :
that month the past two months !,
would have even surpassed the bust
ness of October. But this depression !,
is only temporary as far as the
is concerned for the farmers
still nave a great amount Of grain
lnsold and the people on the outside
Ire crying for the same, and as they -
must have it in a short time it will a,
guarantee a better business after the -
Iohdays than was ever known here =,
t that time Of the year. The i'm "a
movements throughout the country n
ave been normal but not SO great as N
hey would have been had it not been ~,
,r the fact that many Of the farmers N
re making a final struggle to free tu
iemselves from the bondage Of the ri,
rain companies, for whom they he,
ave been so faithfully working dur or.
G the past several years. In this N;
they have made wonderful an,
lvancements and during the year vo'
'08 it is to be sincerely hoped that too
!, business men and farmers, will off
lite and work together to accom- bus
SD this one object. All other dis
vantages of this prairie combined \
lie into insignihcence when com 49,.
