TAFT AND BRYAN.
Each Candidate Makes Speeches Be-
fore Enormous Crowds.

CUMBERLAND, Nd, Oct. 2O.-Fifteen
speeches are on the itinerary Of Cand-
idate Taft today. To an audience
which filled the theater here Judge Taft
delivered his speech on labor.
"When il takes nothing but words
and wind," he declared, in asking the
question as to which party ought to
receive the support of the labor vote,
''the democratic party has greatly the
advantage: but when it comes to things
accomplished and progress made, the
advantage is always with the republi.
a party
Mr.. Taft explained that the Wash.
ington administration and congress
were limited in their judicial action
over labor and labor legislation to
government workmen, those engaged
In interstate commerce, and to work.
men of the territories and of the Dis.
trict of Columbia. Nevertheless, he
said, there has been q number of i'm.
portant laws passed in the last seven
years affecting labor within the juris.
diction and for the purpose OF furn-
ishing model laws for the states to
follow.
LOUISVILLE. Ky, Oct. 20.-Passing

along the line of march, followed by

ers, and speaking to people than
the sound of his voice could reach,
w. J. Bryan tonight made q brief
rally south of the Ohio river. The
rally in Louisville was for Mr.. Bry an
the elimination of one of the busiest
days Of the campaingn and the out
pouring here equalled and possibly
surpassed any thing in the way OF
demonstrations the candidate has me,
with since he was notified of his nom.
nation.
Mr.. Bryan's main address emphas.
lied two points. He repeated his
charge that the republicans we're ex.
pecting to buy the election If purchase
were possible, and declared that high
tariff was Q breeder Of panics. The
visit to Louisville was Of but three
hours duration, but in that time the
democratic candidate made five
speeches.

TITS UP TO THE VOTERS.

In all the history OF the United
States there vas never u presidential
campaign in which the issues were as
clearly defined as In the present one.
The democrats, taking their cue from
Mr.. Bryan, have diligently sought to
divert public consider alton from the
real question by s%pringing all sorts Vt
irrelevant propositions, 20 one Of
which has the merit of being timely.
The question which each thinking
voter must ask himself, the question
whose answer will determine the re.
suit Of she election is simply this:
"Shall we reject a policy which has
benefited us to q greater extent than
any plan ever put forward by a ma
tional administration?"
This is the issue, plainly stated so
that he who rune may read. And the
answer to it is just as simple as Is
the question. No man who has at
heart the welfare of the nation, of
the state or of the community which
is his home, can for q moment, II he
reasons fairly, vote against Mr. Taft,
who stands pledged by his own word
and by his party to the continuance
Of the policy of Roosevelt.
Here in Montana it Is specially easy
to reply to the question, says the
Missoulian. Montana has been
directly benefited by the policy of the
republican administr alton, which is
the policy Of Mr.. Taft. Its forests
have been preserved; its lands have
been protected, its deserts have been
reclaimed, its reserved farm lands
have been made available to the set
tier, its population has been increased
by thousands of thrifty farmers, at.
tracted here by the rich lands made
fruitful by the reclamation work or
thrown open to settlement by treaty
with the Indians.
These r specific instances; these
are matters which are directly appre.
ciable. Add to them the vast benefits
OF the republican policy which Mon.
tana has shared with other states and
the complete whole is q magnificent
beneticence.
And these are facts which are known
to every man in Montana; they are
not campaign myths; they are realities
whose ~far.reaching benefit has been
felt by every community in the state.
And where is the sensible man who,
when he comes to consider ~these0facts,
can consistently vote for q man or q
party whose policy and traditions are
all opposed to the idea which Mr..
Roosevelt's administration has de.
veloped into a reality? A Montanan
who votes against TAFT votes against
his own interests.

AFFECTING STATE FUNDS.

A proposed amendment to the state
constitution. which will be submitted
to Montana voters at the coming cleo
ton, will undoubtedly receive indorse.
ment at the polls. 1t provides for q
state depository board that shall have
control over state funds, and arrange
for the payment of interest upon such
funds while they are on deposit in the
banks.
The necessity for such an amend
ment arises from the fact that the
constitution give the state treasurer
absolute authority in the matter of
selecting banks in which the funds
shall be placed on deposit. The
tenth assembly passed a law which re.
quires the payment Of interest by these
banking Institutions, but the choice
OF banks in which state money shall
be deposited is left to the discretion
or preference of the state treasurer.
1t is apparent that such a condition
is not desirable, and the proposed
amendment to the constitution provides
for a more satisfactory arrangement.
The amendment applies to section
IA OF article MI of the state constitu.
ton, which it is proposed to change
to this effect:
Section IA. The Governor, State
Auditor and State Treasurer are here.
by constituted q state depository
board with full power and authority
to designate repositories with which
all funds in the hands OF the state
treasurer shall be deposited, and al
such rate Of interest as may be pre-
scribed by law. When money shall
have been deposited under direction
OF said depository board and in &C
cordance with the law, The treasurer
shall not be liable tor loss on accoun
OF any such deposit occurring through
damage by the elements or for an,
other cause or reason occasione'
through mean other than his ow,
neglect, fraud or dishonorable con
duct. The making Of profit out O
public moneys, or using the same TO
any purposes not authorized by law
by the state treasurer or by any othe
public officer, shall be deemed
felony, and shall be punished as pre-
vided for by law and part of sue
punishment shall be disqualiicatio
to hold any public Office.
There are depository boards in e,
istence in other states where revenu
is derived from interest upon publ
funds, and a similar arrangement
Montana would be an improvement
upon existing conditions.
