SHERMAN EXPLAINS TARIFF
And Declares 5iyan's Platform is an
Admission in Itself.


jamestown, n. y, Oct 15.-A day
that began with eXpounding of the
Republican doctrine TO number OF
travelling men in railroad coach on
his way from Cuba to this place, end.
ell here tonight for James $. Sherman
in a huge out-pouring of voters to list
en- to the vice presidential candidate 5
view on campaign issues.
In his address here tonight Shef-
man discussed the tariff.
"Bryan's PLATFORM he said, de
clares In favor of immediate revision
of the tariff by the reduction Of import
duties and a gradual reduction on such
other schedules as may be necessary
TO restore the .tarin to a revenue
basis. This Is a double admission:
First. that the Dingley Law is not a
revenue one. and second that the
Wilson German Democratic law which
preceded it was intended to be purely
a revenue producer. not a protective
measure. The platfrom declaration
against protection is clear and dis
tict."
Sherman described the prosperous
condition in France and Germany,
which countries he declared insisted
upon protective measures. and also
called attention to England. which he
said. was suffering from industrial de
pression brought about by free trade.

siasm--Sherman Also Busy, Says
Democratic Tariff Talk is
Idle.

Louisville, KY, Oct. 15.-Acting or
his declaration that The South is
part of the Union and as such entitled
to be considered in the presidential
campaign" Taft spent the day talk
ing in towns and cities in Kentucky.
He Is the first Republican presiden
tial candidate TO campaign in the Blue
Grass state. Taft will be the first
Republican candidate to carry his
campaign into Tennessee, North Caro-.
lima and Virginia, which he proposes
TO visit in the next two days. The
crowds which greeted him at the doZ-
en- places he spoke today were large
and evidenced every phase of politi-
cal enthusiasm.
For the second time since his work
on the stump began, Taft today made
reference to government guarantee of
bank deposits, which Bryan is engaged
iii urging in the west. On that sub
ject at Lexington he paid his respects
to his opponent as follows:
EF yam view ret FandCc&s
Bryan has another proposition that
Is going to be a panacea for every.
thing and that is guaranty of bank
deposits. BY that proposition he is
going to make every respectable, hon
est banker become security OF any
body that desires to go into the bank
ing business with the idea of getting
a large line of deposits with very
small capital. end the result of that
/ don't think itt takes a very clear
headed business man to see.
''In Oklahoma, which is the place
that they try out these experiments
they are now finding that banks are
being organized with capital OF $10,.
900 by people that have failed In the
banking business before, by men that
are under charges of embezzlement
but who are able to get deposits by
