In his speech at Jordanviile. N. Y.
Wednesday, President Roosevelt de
clared. that he was with the people
ito the limit" In the fight against the
big man" who breaks the law. Mr.
Roosevelt may be wholly sincere in
his desire to prosecute the "malefac'
tors of great wealth." Lnt as MIR.
Bryan has pointed out, the Republican
party Is not in a position to permit
such prosecutions ito the limit" Some
Of these very malefactors Of great
wealth are playing a most important
part In the present campaign Of the
party, and as long as that
party IS in power. the efforts OF Mr..
Roosevelt or OF anyone else will be
Of no avail against these men.

The alarm caused by This INVASION ei
your Lanking territory caused your
governor to include In his call for a
special session a recommendation OF
the passage of law similar to that
of Oklahoma when the legislature
met, however the influence or the
large hanks was sufficient to prevent
the needed legislation. and your stat"
still suffers. The people OF Kansas
have had an object lesson; they know
the necessity for law guaranteeing
deposits They have seen its benz
ficent results in n sister state; they
have seen fifty-fOur national banks tax
fpg advantage Of the state system anu
reaping a rich reward. They have
heard the echo or the blow that has
been struck at the naional banks OF
Oklahoma by the Attorney General
ruling, which denies to such banks the
right to share in the benefits OF tho
state guaranty system-that echo be-
ing the surrender of charters by nat
iOnal banks which prefer TO become
state banks rather than surrender the
benefits Of the guaranty system. Ihey
have also seen how the influence OF
a few big tanks, concentrated upon a
legislature, can defeat the wishes or
the smaller banks and the desire or
the iepOsitors all over thu state.
| submit that in this effort to make
all banks secure. the Democratic party
Is the champion Of the farmer. the
latorine man. the business man, the
professional man, and the champion OF
the banker as we'll No class is out
side of the benefits of this law, for
it bestOws its blessings upon all.
Why has the Republican party been
so quick to respond to the demands
Of Wall street and so slow 10 yleid
to the demands Of the masses? There
are two reasons: first, the Republi-
can marty has allowed itself to become
the servant of the favor-sceking cor
po.ations. and, second. too many Re
publican leaders look at questions
from the aristocratic standpoint. the
standpoint OF the few-rather than
from the Democratic standpoint. the
standpoint of the many. They leg
islate upon the theory that society is
suspended from the top. and they
fail, therefore. to understand either the
evils that afflict the body polite. or
the remedies that are needed. the
Democratic party, viewing questions
from the standpoint of the whole
people. easily sees that which Repub-
lican leaders do not discover. and us
remedies l4gin with the relief OF the
average man This is the secret. ii
secret there be, of thhe primary OF
our party iE matters Of reform.
When Solomon, was invited to
choose what he, would. he asked for
an understanding heart, that he might
discern between the good and the bad.
and he was told that, because he had
chosen wisdom rather than riches or
long life. he should. have. not only
wisdom. but riches and length OF days
as well. And so when party deter
mines to seek first that which hene-
fits the common people. It finds that
in acting in the interest of the common
people. it also promotes the welfare
of the smaller classes which rest up
on the masses. for when the produc-
ers OF wealth prosper. their prosperity
is shared by every element OF Soc
iety.

SPARTANBURG, s. C.. Aug. 81
The damage in Spantanburg county
from high water has fallen heaviest

Twenty-Five bridges in the county
