DISTRICT BANK NOW OPEN
BUSINESS OF HARPER e. CO.
BANKERS, TAKEN OVER.
Capital Is $500, 900 and Present De-
posits $442, oOO-other Banks
Extend Welcome.

The new District National Bank, Rob
ert n. Harper. president, this morning
formally Joined the ranks of the financial
institutions Of the capital. The opening
was under most favorable auspices Near
ly every other bank in the city took oc-
casion. by its officers. to call upon Mr..
Harper and his colleagues and offer
their congratulations. and several banks
sent handsome floral pieces, which were
used to decorate every available space
between the windows Of the tellers. The
opening was practically a continuous re-
ception.
In beginning its existence the District
National Bank has an suspicious start,
as 1t takes over the banking business OF
Harper & Co. 1415 G street northwest,
at the same location, including deposits
aggregating $4,000. a large loan account
and an established list of correspondents.
1t starts with capital stock of 800 600
and surplus Of $4,000, the stock having
been sold at $40 per share.
In the near future is is probable the
new bank will secure possession of the
which it recently purchased on
the south side of G street, but which is
now the subject of several leases. As
soon as these terminate President Harper
intends to push preparations toward
a new building for the Dis.
trct National Bank.
1t Is contemplated to build an eight
story Office structure, with q banking
room thirty-eight feet wide by seventy
five feet deep on the ground floor.

TO OBL|GE PRESIDENT TAFT
NO EFFORT TODAY TO RUN
OMAHA STREET CARS.
Temporary Cessation Of Hostilities
Because Of Visit of the Presi-
Dental Party.

OMAHA, Neb., September 2O.-By spe-
cial request of the President through his
private secretary, no effort will be made
to run street cars during the time the
chief executive and party are in the city.
A telegram from Private Secretary Car
penter was received this morning by
Mayor Dahlman, asking If it was possible
that a suspension of the strike controver-
sy be arranged during the Presidents
visit.
The mayor consulted President Wattles
Of the street car company, who readily
agreed to the proposal, and announcement
was at once made that all car serv-
ice would be stopped for the day at 4
o'clock pm.
One hundred and twenty-five non-union
conductors and motormen arrived today
from Chicago. 1t is understood about 300
more are on the way. No special effort
was made to resume car service today.
There have been no disorders.
The strike leaders announced that an
effort would be made to obtain an inter-
view with President Taft on his ar
rival here this afternoon in the hope of
enlisting his services in an effort to set
tie the strike.
The Union Pacific has put on a subur-
ban train service between Omaha and

by the state to see that his declining
years are spent in comfort and personal
independence. His courage and his patri-
otism are the objects Of our veneration.
Thereupon the democrats cry: You
complain of expenditures: we increased
pension appropriations from s106,23o in
1899 to S430.O34 in 1909. Would you cut
off the old soldier?"
For each charge of increase of expen-
ditureS they have an excuse, basing 1t
upon expansion of the states necessities.
If you should ask for tabloid express
sion of the spirit of the two parties in
the pending campaign 1 would put it this
way:
On the part of the democrats. easy
going confidence in their normal major
ity, their control of election and other
machinery. the power of race and class
prejudice in their favor and the fact that
there Is no acute issue against them.
On the part of the republicans, dog
ged. militant spirit, looking for results
beyond this election and the next one: a
determination to exploit alleged evils and
injustices, to force some reforms by the
dominant party, if not at their own
hands. and if licked to take it in good
part and try 1t again next time.

PASSING THROUGH THE CRISIS
GOV. JOHNSON'S CHANCES ARE
ABOUT EVEN.
High Respiration This Morning
Cause Grave Apxiety-Wife on
Verge of a Breakdown.

ROCHESTER,, Mimi, September 90
While Gov. johnson is somewhat better
according to DR.. c. H. Mayo, the doc
tors still consider the governor in grave
danger.
DR.. Charles F. McNevin issued a bulle-
tin this morning. saying the governor had
just about an even chance. The five full
days following the operation will be up
today. he said. and If he successfully
passed that period and could retain some
solid food his chances would grow better.
DIR. McNevin explained that by ''solid
food" he meant some weak tea.
The high respiration of this morning.
the doctor explained, was due to the dis
tension caused by gas. 1t is, of course. a
symptom that causes some anxiety, but
is not necessarily grave.
Mrs. Johnson is almost on the verge OF
a nervous breakdown and her condition Is
causing her friends worry
At 10 o'clock am. DR.. McNevin issued
a bulletin as follows:
Gov. johnson is resting comfortably.
but is not sleeping. He is having con.
siderable trouble and distress from gas
pains. l should say that his condition
is practically unchanged from the last
bulletin except that his respiration has
dropped to a point between % to 30.
We have given him about one quart OF
nourishment since o'clock this morn
ing in the shape of carbonated water.
His weakened condition this fore
noon did not permit giving him weak
tea or strained broth, as we had
hoped.
The crisis period of five days will be
passed today. All can say now is that
his chances are still about even.'
At $50 am. today DR.. Charles I.
McNevin. house physician at st. Mary y
Hospital. issued the following bulletin:
There is a slight change for the bet
ter in the governors condition. His
temperature is 99.2, pulse, 1OS. and res
piration, 30. He has rested considerably
and has slept two hours and a quarter
since midnight The atropin admins
tered at midnight brought relief. After
the wound was dressed at $50 this
morning the governor fell into a doze
and is still sleeping"
The impression among the hospital
attaches is that the governor will pull
