One good result arising from the panic was the effectual stoppage which it enforced upon unsound in. dustrial and financial schemes, says
 Banker Henry Clews. Our credit system had been strained to the
 breaking point by the flood of flo, tations; and this state of high ten sion was chiefly responsible for the panic because of inability to with stand shock. This has all been changed. New schemes are prompt ly turned down unless particularly meritorious: our bankers are exceed ingly conservative: weak concerns have been obliged to liquidate; cred it has been greatly strengthened and while good borrowers secure all reasonable accommodation bankers are pursuing a policy of grea: care in the granting of credit Another factor of more importance than is yet appreciated is the great relief which has been lateiy afforded 10 institutions and individuals by the rise in stocks. It is well known that some of these would have been forced into bankruptcy had it no, been for the recent favorable turn in events. As il is many concerns have been enabled to meet their ob- ligations with unexpected prompt ness: and + goes without saying that their resumption or saving from failure will be beneficial 10 the financial community. In short the hOusecIeaning process which began last October has been thorough and beneficial. disastrous as it may have been in some quarters.

choice apples on commercial scale,
and at the same time, convince them
that we lead the world in our grade

would prefer to be in the competi-
ton with % competitors rather than
with only two or three, and If it could
be known early enough how many cars
would be entered, it could be arranged
to have an auction sale of the exhibits
in this class on the last day OF the
show and the buyers could land their
purchases in the market in time for
the holiday trade. l believe this could
be worked up to be the most important
feature of the show, and as the apples
would all be the Cream of the North
west" I think they would sell at prices
never before heard of in any country.
The parties making exhibits in this
class are running no risk whatever, for
if they put up meritorious fruit in good
shape, it is certain to sell at price
to more than repay the extra expense
of making the exhibit, without taking
the prize money into consideration at

The competition cannot fail to do a
vast amount of good to the whole
country, for it should bring out the
very best material, the best ideas and
workmanship in grade and pack, and
in this way show thousands of visitors

to the attention of the Commercial

1908 PERSONAL LIBERTY
II Means Liberty For Saloons and
Slavery For Men, Women
and Children,

ana InlluEen.
It is a poor sort of personal liberty
that won't work both ways. The Per-
sonal Liberty league stands for per-
sonal liberty for its members and for
absolute domination of the other feI.
lows. The Republican party stands
for personal liberty for every man,
woman and child in Ohio.
AS the candidate of the Personal
Liberty league and the Democratic
party, Judson Harmon naturally
stands for the first kind of liberty:
that IS, liberty that is the acme Of
selfishness in its nature He stands
for the saloon in every county, every
township, every village and in every
crossroad hamlet in the state. He
wouldn't permit the residents Of
these districts, no matter if they
were SO to l against the saloon, to
rise up and abolish them. He would
have them remain, an eyesore on the
countryside, a place of temptation for
the youth. a blot on the moral hori
zon, that the liberty of one man to
get his alcohol might not be inter-
fered with
This Personal Liberty is what the
brewers and Judge Harmon stand for.
It is what theyThaVe raised a fund of
of $2,ooo,ooo to perpetuate by the de-
feat of Governor Harris and the Re-
publican state ticket.
Governor Harris stands for home
rule in the matter of the saloons. He
believes, and the Republican party in
its state platform declares for, the
right of majority of people in a
county to say for themselves whether
they want the barroom for a neigh.

Judge Harmon has declared. in at
tempting to evade an explanation of
his alliance with the liquor interests
and 10 hold TO his cause the Demo
Gratis CT the state who will not toler
ate saloon domination. that the TEN.
perance question is not an issue this
fall. The newspapers of OHIO, the
Republican state platform and the
Republican candidates and speakers,
say it is az issue. :,
The fact that the brewers, through
the Personal Liberty league, have
raised corruption fund Of 100000
to elect Democratic governor and a
Democratic legislature, is sufficient
proof to the normal man that the
question is very much of an issue.

What effect will the Hearst
letters have on the forthcoming
general election? Not much, if
any. The main issue of this cam
paign relates to the two candi-
dates, Taft and Bryan; which of
the two is the better equipped
for the presidency? All minor
matters will be ignored by the
voters.
Bryan, as usual, draws large
crowds to his meetings. He is a
magnetic speaker, and people like
to hear him; but his hearers and
admirers are not all Democratic
voters. Many hear him gladly
and then vote for the other man.
We have faith in the election of
William H. Taft.

DEMOCRAT ADVOCATES
NEGRO DlSFRANCHISEMENT.

National Committeeman Atwood, Bry-
ans Close Friend, Openly FaVors
Taking Vote From Colored Men of
Kansas.
Disfranchisement of as many colored
voters as possible is advocated by John
H. Atwood, Democratic national com
mitteman from Kansas. chairman of
the speakers bureau Of the Democratic
national committee, one of Bryan's
closest friends and man who, it is
said, Mr. Bryan intends to make at
torney general if he should be elected
president.
of Kansas was advocated by Mr.. At
wood in the following letter published
in the Kansas City Post Of Kansas
City, Kan, May {, 1908;
Letter Urging Disfranchisement.
"By one of those strange ironies Of
fate which sometimes overtake the
benefactOrs of individuals. peoples or
races the state of Kansas. which has
done more perhaps for the negro than
any other state in the Union, Is
now suffering a grievous political
wrong from the hands Of the freed
man and his descendants.
william A. Harris would now be
nf had hnnn for
the ignorant negro vote, and there have
been times in the past when the Demo
cratic party could have elected its
state ticket had it not been for the
ignorant black vote of Kansas City
Kan. Leavenworth, Atchison, Law
renee and Topeka.
There was time when the negro
vote was rot considerable factor in
Kansas politics, but that time has
passed. The influx of negroes from the
south, the rapid multiplication Of those
native to Kansas soil and the increas-
ing insistence Of the negro upon social
equality make the Kansas negro not
only political factor, but social and
political menace.
Atwood Favors "Jim Grow" Schools.
''If the last election be criterion
the negro now holds the balance of po.
litical power in Kansas, as he does in
Missouri This in itself is, bad enough
but in Kansas we have suffered fol
long years the outrage of mixed
schools, fastened upon us by the Re
publican politician.
mixed schools lead the negroes tc
aspire to a mixed society. and this
close contact of the races Is productive
of troubles from which Kansas would
be free if the negro had less poIitica
power and were not admitted to the
same schools with the whites.
"Kansas has long been weary of the
negro politician, and it is more thar
weary Of the mixed school. Patience
has it's limits. and believe thai
the time has come when the people oi
Kansas will join with the people ot
Missouri in restricting negro suffrage.
81 do not advocate the disfranchiSe
ment of the negro on the ground Of hi:
color That idea is abhorrent to the
principles of our free government, ant
its execution would be in conflict witt
the constitution.
"But our constitution will permit tn,
disfranehisemen Of tne ignorant, de
praved, lazy. vicious and debauchet
negro, and this disfranchsenen
should be accomplished to the end tina
our free Institutions may not suffer"

The Ohio Press Publicity and Edu
cational Bureau is the high-sounding
name of a Cincinnati organization
that is furnishing free of charge news
matter to such papers of the state as
will print it. This publicity bureau is
nothing but an adjunct of the Personal

the brewers of the state, and is work
ing hand in hand with the Democratic
state organization in the interest Of
Mr.. Harmon for governor.

ed Judge Taft for sta ement
on the Maine election. He said:
"The majority, about 5000, is
just what | expected. The result
was affected by local contro-
versy over the resubmission of
the prohibition question, and the
majority is just what | was in
formed two weeks ago it would

The statement referred to by
Judge Taft was contained in a
special dispatch from Middle
Bass Island to the Enquirer of

jority in Vermont Judge Taft
said:
THE vote in Vermont is much
more significant, as one cast un-
