Labor Resents Gompers'S Act.

Commissioner Walter Drew, Of the National
Erectors' Association, who returned TO New York
yesterday from business trip West, reported thaC
except in a few places business in all trades has
greatly improved, especially in towns and cities de-
voted principally TO branch Of manufacture
Many manufacturers getting large fall
orders" he said The largest furniture manufact-
urer in Grand Rapids, Mich, told me he had
received so many large orders this fall that his
factories will work at their greatest capacity TO
meet them in time"
with regard to the effect Of the circulars OF
President Gompers Of the American Federation OF
Labor TO the unions and his policy in advising the
union men to vote the Democratic ticket he said:
"I not a politician, but, speaking as lay
nan. from the information I received in Western
towns and cities, there will b. very large labor
vote for Taft in spite Of the appeals of Gompers
There is disposition throughout the West to link
the election of Taft with return to prosperity,
and there is belief that If Bryan elected his
election would retard the return TO prosperity
While officially labor leaders might declare in ia
Of the Gompers policy. the information that
to from Western industrial centres was
that the rank and file would not accept dictation
as to how they shall vote. Personally I believe
Taft will be elected and that a large labor vote
will help to elect him.

Because Mr.. Bryan had not taken action on the

Havre de Grace, Nd Oct. N-Attorney General
Bonaparte in an address here tonight. devoted
himself chiefly to the Democratic proposal looking
to the governmental guarantee Of bank deposits
He declared that "a deposior is simply creditor
of a bank who has the right, under his contract.
to demand payment Of his debt in whole or in
part at any moment" and argued that if a guar
antee is to given depositors in banks there is no
reason why the should not be given to all
sorts of creditors of all sorts of debtors.
Mr.. Bonaparte said that the most serious objec-
ton to the scheme is however, not theoretical, but
practical, and that it would place honest, con-
servative properly managed and properly differed
banks at the mercy of undercapitalized banks
with ''disreputable incompetent presidents" after

SITUATION IMPROVES
National Committee No Longer I'm
edsu about Ne5U York.

Chairman Hitchcock of the Republican National
Committee said last night that the committee no
longer felt any uneasiness about New York. New
Jersey. Ohio. Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska, Wscon-
sin and the Pacific Coast states California Oregon
and Washington. He said that reports brought
him by Ex-Governor Myron T. Herrick who called
at headquarters yesterday, were very reassuring-
He said that extra speakers were sent to Ohio be-
cause the committee wished to make sure of carry
ing Judge Tafts home state. The backgrounds
where the fight was the closest, he said were Mon
tana and Nevada The assurances he had received
of late made him believe that the Republicans
would carry Colorado and Idaho, but the result In
Montana and Nevada he admitted in doubt.
In Missouri, the chairman says, the Republicans
have a fighting chance of success. and the organl-
zation leaders there very hopeful of doing as
well this year they did four years ago, when the
state joined the Republican column. OF the three
states Missouri Kentucky and Maryland, Mr..
Hitchcock thinks that Maryland is most likely to
go Republican.
There is cheerful atmosphere at Repuo-
hcan national headquarters. For the first SIX
weeks of the campaign it uphill fight, and
there was little money to work with. Now the
rank and file wide awake and the subscriptions
are coming in freely, although the committee
is still hampered by lack of funds.
Richard V. Oulahan, director of the literary bu-
reau, is sending out steady stream Of forcefll
and convincing arguments in the shape Of inter-
views. statistics and political history and the re-
suits noticeable. The campaign this year is N
Democrats had things pretty much their own way
for the first four weeks Now that the hard knocks
are being delivered, the Democrats are showing
their usual unpreparedness and the tide is running
strongly in favor of Taft and Sherman and Hughes
Chairman Hitchcock will go to Chicago this after
noon to be gone until Sunday morning. soon after
his return he expects to be able to speak with
large degree of certainty Of the result on Election
Day.
Among the callers at Republican national mead
quarters yesterday Senator w. Murray Crane.
Of Massachusetts. and Cornelius N. Bliss, Of this
city, former treasurer of the Republican National
Committee and, with Senator Crane, member or
the advisory board Of the national committee. Rep
resentative James S. Sherman also was at national
headquarters. and spent hour with the national
chairman Mr.. Sherman said he was satisfied with
the situation in New York and that Governor
Hughes would be reelected.
Ex-Governor Herrick said that in a few Ohio dis
trcts the party might lose representatives in Con
gress If SO, it would be because of local fight,
which would not influence the state or national
contest The Legislature he regarded as certainly
Republican
Concerning the attitude OF Senator Foraker, ex-
Governor Herrick said: "Of course, he is inactive
but he is good a Republican and too good
citizen and too good Ohioan even TO wish for
