SHAKING DOWN THE TRUSTS.
Chas. G. Dawes Visits Wall Street and
Promises Republican Party Will
Be Good.

Under New York date line Of Sept
10 the daily papers of the country
publish dispatch from which the fol.
lowing is taken:
"The visit Of Charles G. Dawes, of
Chicago formerly Comptroller of the
Currency had more influence than
anything else in arousing Wall street
uneasiness. Mr.. Dawes came to New
York primarily to raise money for the
Republican congressional campaign
committee, and he gave the people he
called upon very clearly to under.
stand that the Republican majority in
the house is in danger.
"Wall street has steeled itself
against the opportunities of political
canvassers for funds, but Mr.. Dawes
visit was unquestionably impressive.
The people who saw and heard him
were convinced that he really meant
what he said when he announced that
unless means were taken to arrest the
current and change the situation the
Democrats would swing into control
of the popular branch of congress and
probably elect president Mr. Dawes
did not confine his visit alone to
bankers and fnanciers He devoted a
good share of his attention to leading
representatives of the manufacturing
interests He carried away some
money, but not nearly as much as he
had hoped for"

COULDN'T. STAND SHELDON.
Even Lt-Gov. Woodruff. Trust
Character, Said the Present Trea-
surer Of the National Commit
tee, Would Jeopardize the
State Ticket.

George r. Sheldon, treasurer of the
Republican National committee, whose
trust interests are well known, was
compelled, under fire, to withdraw
from the New York state ticket in the
fall of 1902 when he was eager to
accept the Office of Lieutenant-Gover-
nor. His connections with the trusts
mated by j. Pierpont Morgan and other
favored trusts, became such an issue
at that time that Governor B. B Odell
fought against his name being placed
on the ticket. Odell even went so
far as to wire Timothy Woodruff that
he would not run on the same state
ticket with Sheldon United States
Senator Thomas @ Plat was deter
mined to have Sheldon on the ticket
and informed the Republican leaders
at the state convention at Saratoga
that Sheldon's name would remain on
the slate. The wires between the con-
vention city and Albany were kept
hot and, finally, Governor Odell was
compelled to take a train for Saratoga
in order to prevent Sheldon's name
from appearing on the ticket Cover
nor Odell went direct to Senator
Platt's home in Saratoga and, after a
conference which lasted until 2
o'clock in the morning, Plat yielded
and Sheldon's name was withdrawn
and F. w. Higgins was nominated for
the Office sought by George R. Shell
don.
When it was announced that Shell
don would not be on the ticket three
hundred delegates in front of Platt's
house cheered the glad tidings.
Lieut-Gov. Woodruff, when asked at
that time why he objected Sc strongly
to Sheldon. said:
~ have no personal animosity to-
ward Mr.. Sheldon. believe that the
objections that have been raised to
him are of the gravest sort and that
they jeopardize the state ticket"
Gov Odell had this to say a day be-
fore Sheldon's name was taken off the
slate:
al fought against George r. Sheldon
because his business connections i'm.
periIed the whole ticket"

TWO PRACTICAL MEN"
'Ihe Whiteness of the Pot and the
Blackness of the Kettles"

THE Whiteness of the Pot and the
Blackness of the Kettles"
From Theodore Roosevelt's letter of
Oct. 4, 1904, to Edward II. Harri.
man.
Now, my dear sir, you and l are
practical men, and you are on the
ground and know the conditions bet.
ter than l do. If you think there is
any danger Of your visit to me caus-
ing trouble or if you think there Is
nothing special 1 should be Informed
about, OF no matter in which l could
give you aid, why, of course, give up
the visit for the time being, and then
a few weeks hence before I write my
message, l shall get you to come down
to discuss certain government matters
not connected with the campaign.
From Edward Ell. Harriman's confiden-
tial statement to Sidney Webster.
About a week before the election in
the autumn of 1904, when it looked
certain that the state ticket would go
Democratic and was doubtful as to
Roosevelt himself, he, the president,
sent NE request to go to Washing
ton to confer upon the political condi-
L u,
and he told me he understood the cam
palgn could not be successfully carried
on without sufficient money and asked
if l could help them in raising the
necessary funds as the national COM
mittee, under control of Chairman Cor
telyOu, had utterly failed of obtaining
them, and there was large amount
due from them to the New York state
committee. We talked over what could
be done for DepeW, and finally he
agreed that if found necessary he
would appoint him as ambassador to
Paris.
With full belief that he, the presi-
dent, would keep his agreement, I
came back to New York, sent for
Treasurer Bliss, who told me that
was their last hope and that they had
exhausted every otker resource. In
his presence 1 called up an intimate
friend of Senator Depew, told him that
it was necessary in order to carry New
York state that 100000 should be
raised at once, and if he would help
1 would subscribe $4,000. After a
few words over the telephone the
gentleman said he would let me know,
which he did probably in three Or four
hours, with the result that the whole
amount, including my subscription,
had been raised.
The checks were given to Treasurer
Bliss, who took them to Chairman Cor
telyou. If there were any among
them of life insurance companies, or
any other like organizations of
course Cortelyou must have informed
the president. l do not know who
the subscribers were, other than the
friend of Depew, who was an indi-
vidual This amount enabled the New
York state committee to continue it's
work, with the result that at least So
600 votes were turned in the city Of
New York alone, making a difference
of 100000 votes in the general result.

DAWES FOR GUARANTEE
Comptroller OF Currency Under Nc
Kinley Favored Insurance OF
Bank Deposits.

Charles G. Dawes was comptroller
of the currency under Mr.. Mckinley.
Since 1902 he has been president of
the Central Trust company at Chi
cago. Writing in The Public. Louis
T.. Post calls attention to the fact that
several years ago Mr.. Dawes wrote
a book entitled "The Banking System
of the United States" The following
is taken from Mr.. Posts article:
In describing in that book the pres
ent need of our national banking sys-
tenn" Mr.. Dawes distinctly argues for
the insurance idea that Bryan advo-
Gated in congress and upon which his
campaign is now advancing in the
west. Referring to a proposed law,
advocated by Bryan in congress,
which would have levied a tax upon
national banks for the purpose Of Gre
at.ng a fund for the insurance of de-
posts, Mr.. Dawes wrote:
National banking statistics show
that fund OF the necessary amount
would soon be created by compare
lively small tax upon each national
bank.
"* 1t must certainly be ad-
!ulllcu lIldt IIC VI ouIih
a fund would have tendency to pre-
vent the mad rushes of small and
large depositors during times Of panic,
for money which they hoard away in
safety deposit boxes or other hiding
places.
$50 If the effect Of such a
law would be to render bank deposits
more stable under all conditions, as in
our Judgment would be the case. nc
law could be Of more vaue and i'm
portance to the debtor, or to the cred
itor, or to the community at large.
Besides the great Importance
Of the law, as related to the general
prosperity of the country, it is meri-
torious as preventing the keen suffer
ing in those localities where bank fail
ures occur, and where the hard earned
savings of the community, under our
present laws, are often swept away.
BY such a law, losses are distributed
as by insurance, the beneficial effects
of which need no argument. To the
passage Of such law in proper form,
we trust the efforts Of congress will

PROTECTING DEPOSITS IN BANKS.
An Ohio Example of Taft's Position
and Oklahoma's Proof of Bryan'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, op.
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:
Cleveland, O., Aug. 1.-THE cred.
itors' committee, charged with an In
vestigatien of the affairs of the de.
funct Farmers and Merchants bank,
the cashier of which, Henry w. Ga,
zell, is under arrest charged with em.
bezzlement, tonight reported that the
depositors will be forced to shoulder
a loss of SAILS 900.
The report, made in a meeting OF
$500 depositors, charged the deficit to
Gazell, alleging his speculations
proved disastrous to the institution.
Guthrie, Okla, May 2l.-Within one
hour from the time H. II. Smock, Ok
lahoma banking commission, had
taken charge of the international
Bank of Colgate he had authority to
pay the depositors In full, theu41
the bank,s cash and a~aiasble funds
in other banks fell $500 short Of
the total amount of deposits. The
commissioner was able to do this un-
der the operation of the new banking
law, and this is the first time it has
been called into use.
