Speech Interrupted by Cries
of Bryan"

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Oct. 15.-Act-
is part OF the Union, and as such en-
titled TO be considered in the national
election Mr.. Taft spent the day talk
ing in towns and cities in Kentucky.
He is the first Republican presiden-
tial candidate who ever came to the
Blue Grass state.
He will be the first Republican presi-
Dental candidate to carry his cam
paign into North Carolina and Vir-
ginia, which be intends visiting in the
next two days. His reception has been
typical of Southern hospitality The
attention he received while eXpounding
Republican doctrines was such as 10 in
dlcate more than passing interest.
The candidate made many references
to his reception during the day.
For the second time since his work
on the stump began. Mr.. Taft made
reference to the government guarantee
of bank deposits, which Mr.. Bryan is
engaged in urging in the West. On this
subject at Lexington he paid his re-
spects to his opponent as follows:
Attacks Bryan's Stand.
Mr.. Bryan has another proposition
that is going to be the panacea for
everything, and that is the guaranty
of bank deposits. BY that proposition
he is going to make every respect
able, honest banker become the Sc
curity OF anybody that desires TO go
into the banking business with the idea
of getting a large line of depositors
with very small capital, and the result
of that 1 don't think it takes a very
clear business man to see.
I'm Oklahoma, the state where they
try out the experiments, they are now
hnding that banks are being organized
with a capital of $4,000 by persons
that have failed in the banking bust
ness before, by men that are under
charges of embezzling. but who are
able To get deposits by saying to de-
positors, / am Il good fellow and want
YOU to help me out Put your money
in my hank, because this million dollar
bank up here OF Mr.. Smith s is my Sc
curity that you Will get your deposits
back
- Now, that is not a joke; that is a
real, genuine statement of the condl
tion that is to be produced by that
guaranty of bank deposits PROPOSE
tion.'
Puts in Long Day.
The work of the day for Mr.. Taft
was begun early this morning at Hunt
ington, w. Va, where he was taken
from the train to a rink and received
by thousands. Then c&me his advent
into Kentucky.
AT Ashland the crowd was big, and
the cheers of the tipping variety.
AT East kentucky Junction he told
the crowd that he believed that Ken
lucky Republicans were almost better
than the other Republicans, because
they had TO fight for their doctrine.
At Olive Hill he was again met by
an enthusiastic crowd.
To his Morehead audience he said:
81 wish / had voice as strong as
my hand and as strong as the muscles
Of my arm, because ] would Ike to have
