PROTECT DEPOSITS
GUARANTEE PLANK ONE OF Mr..
BRYAk'S WINNING CARDS.
The Object Lesson In Oklahoma and
Convincing Men that their Savings
In Banks Should be Protected as
WeII as Government Deposits.

The Democratic National Platform
favors guaranteed bank deposits; the
Republican platform is silent on that
subject. Mr.. Bryan heartily cham
pions the plan; MI. Taft is strongly
opposed to it.
Mr.. Taft and Guaranteed Deposits.
In MS speech OF acceptance MI. Taft
puts himself squarely on record as be.
ing opposed to guaranteed deposits.
He says: "The Democratic platform
recommends a tax upon national
banks and upon such state banks as
may come in, in the nature of en-
forced insurance to raise a guaranty
fund to pay the depositors OF any
bank which fails. The proposal is
wholly impracticable unless 1t is to
be accompanied by a complete revo-
luton in u banking system, with a
supervision so close as practically to
create a government bank. If the
proposal were adopted exactly as the
Democratic platform suggests, it
would bring the whole banking system
of the country down in ruin"
Why seek to confuse the people on
a simple proposition? We are sup
posed to have Government super
vision of national banks now. Super
vision does not mean a government
bank; it simply means that the ma
tional bank inspectors will do just as
they are expected to do under exist
ing law-make their examination of
banks thorough and make prompt and
effective correction of any irregulari-
ties discovered. So it will be difficult
to brighten the people by the claim
that guaranteed deposits means tho
rough supervision of banks. That's
Just exactly what the people want.
It is absurd to say that guaranteed
deposits would bring the whole bank
ing SYSTEM of the country down to
ruin"
What does guaranteed deposits"
mean? 1t means that the savings OF

The Local Option Issue Explained
Why Fir. Ridgway Was Nominated.
Editor of Record,
DEAR SIR.

LUtO W hOCOIU,
DEAR SIR.
In your last weeks editorial you refer
to an article in the Monitor Register
on Local Option and, indeed, the largest
share of the editorial is devoted to
things said in that letter, which is my
main reason for asking the courtesy of
a reply. And the more so because the
position of the Anti-Saloon and Local
Option League are evidently not quite
understood by you.
l shall state in as concise terms as
possible the doctrine and position OF
the League.
The OBJECT is to secure from the
Legislature a law submitting the ques-
ton of the Saloon to a vote of the peO-
pie, to promote the law when passed,
and secure a vote of the people. If the
peoples verdict is against the Saloon
it will be the province of the League to
see that the law is enforced.
AS to membership, all men who be-
lieve the people have the right to decide
for themselves whether they do or do
not want saloons within a given terri
tory, are members of the League,
whether in the church or out of it;
whether total abstainers Oh not, for the
saloon, OF against the saloon, no matter
to what party they belong.
Again, as to other issues. The
League has nothing whatever to do
with issues other than the election of
candidates to the legislature who will
promote the enactment of a law enab-
linr t1,o unto,.c - Ina;Jo Az caIou, r,,acf
ion at the polls. Therefore, Mr.. Ridg-
way is a member of the League quite
as much as Nh. Borton; SO is Senator
Plummer. And we would be delighted
to include Messrs. johnson, Schade and
Crispin.
If Mr.. Ridgway voted for the local
option, bill for "political effect" let us
at least give him credit for his vote.
That is all we have asked Messrs. John
son, Schade and Crispin to do, and
we have asked them to do that. Then,
if the sentiment in this county is strong
enough to make a vote for local option
good political effect" for Mr.. Ridge
away, why not for Messrs. Johnson,
Schade and Grispin?
Our attitude, us you see MI. Editor,
is sufficient answer to the query Are
the Local Option leaders asking ''sup-
port for Clayton l.. Batten for Sheriff,

This isapurely, non, or omni-partisan
movement, hence the present situation

AS to. Paramount Issues.

In another column Rev. j. w. Gam
BILE explains the Anti-SaloOn or Local
Option movement in a concise and
clear manner and in it shows that those
who are making that issue paramount
to all others are gaining wisdom in
using the tactics which all special pri-
vileged interests have used. There are
many who believe in the abstract prin-
of the referendum on various questions
but consider other questions paramount
to that at a general election.
1t will be a healthy omen when the
ministers put aside ~partisanship. Their
voting for Clayton l.. Catten for
Sheriff; for Edward e. Grosscup for
Congress, because d vote against MI.
Loudenslager will be q vote against
Joe Cannon; and a vote for Mr.. Bryan
will be a vote for a man not only of
the highest Christian integrity, but for
one who believes in their paramount
principle of the referendum.
The democratic candidate for AS
sembly, j. Walter Pancoast aplatform in
himself without having to be pledged,
Two years ago, argued that as the
County had given 1000 majority twenty
years ago against license, that on that
platform he should be entitled to con
%sideration, but when he asked for min
isterial support a minister replied that
he voted the republican ticket. Sam
uel Ridgway was the republican can
didate that year; was nominated be-
cause he was more acceptable to the
liquor element and asked hotel support.
Mr.. Pancoast was defeated by 756,
because the local optionists in the Re-
publican party considered other issues
more paramount than local option.
For the same reason the republican
leaders this yeal prefer Mr.. Ridgway
over some issue rather than their love
for even temperance because they have
been careful to nominate candidates
which were not Objectionable to the liq-
uor interest in the past fifteen years. Mr..
Crispin was one. Mr.. Crispin does
MOI advocate the county Board of Tax
a:ion.
What issue has been paramount?
Equal taxation of railroads. The
County Board of Taxation has been

crease the taxes by raising valuations
on individuals and thereby lesseniHg
the general rate in the state by which
nle railroads are taxed. Some indivi-
