REPUBLICANS FEAR
THE MIDDLE WEST
Bryan'S Plan for Guarantee
ing National Bank Depos-
its Meets With Favor.
By JAMES HAY, Jr.

HOT SPRINGS. Va, Aug. 24.-Follow-
ms Postmaster General Meyers state
ment of yesterday that there is alarm
ing apathy among Republicans In the
East, comes the realization today by the
politicians here that the middle West
presents an even graver difficulty than
any to be found on the Atlantic sea-
board.
And as the result Of this realization,
tho Republican leaders see that they
have on their hands one Of the hardest
fights in the history OF their party.
First or all. the middle West is red
hot for Bryan's plan for guaranteeing
the deposits OF national banks. Xester-
day Mr.. Meyers interview contained a
violent attack on the scheme. saying It
would promote gambling and specula-
ton TO an unprecedented degree. This
morning he received a wild complaint
from Stubbs. Republican nominee for
governor OF Kansas. setting forth that
he has come out for Bryan's plan and
that the people OF his state are IN
favor Of Il. This served as reminder
that the Republicans must get up and
hustle 70 overcome the popularity OF the
bank scheme. Nationally the party Is
irrevocabIy opposed to the idea OF the
guaranteeing OF the deposits The party
platform is against II, TAFT Is against

the Postmaster General with his report

The reports OF apathy ia New Eng

drmed them. II is for these reasons
that instructions will be sent Il the
national committee from here TO make

Sensational Career on Bench.

when the mayor appointed him as judge
of one of the city's two police courts.
There was protest to the mayor against
the appointment, but 1t was overruled.
One of the most striking Of the Judge 8
actions on the bench was his issuance of
warrants for the arrest of the county
| prosecutor, sheriff ana foreman of a
grand jury which had found indictments
against James H. Nugent. the city coun-
sci. These warrants charged the Off
Gals with conspiracy to indict but they
were thrown out by higher court and
Judge Howell was criticised for issuing
whether the indictment of Nugent was
warranted.

When Judge Howell began to take an
active part in the present campaign the

republican party turned their batteries

records were examined and sharply
