TAFT CRACKS A JOKE
At the Expense of Tariff Advocates in
Democrat States.

North Yakima. Wash, Sept. 29.-Ar-
riving here soon after O'Clock this
morning. President Taft slept until
O'Clock and the brealfasted on board
his private car. The president was
pretty well exhausted after his hard
day in Spokane yesterday.
With an easy day before him, how
ever, Mr.. Taft was in excellent spirits
this morning. The presidents arrival
here was coincident with the fall of the
first rain in many months. A brief
speech during the forenoon and luSch-
con with the citizens at 1890 o'clock
were the features of the day and the
president left at 1:45 o'clock for Seattle.
Renewed promises are being exacted
from local committees, by those in
charge of the presidents trip not to i'm
tending programs beyond their original
length. Dinners and luncheons are to
be curtailed wherever possible and as
the president never eats sweets at his
own table, orders have been issued to
cut out all desserts at banquets ar
ranged in his honor.
The president in his speech today
dWelt upon how impressively the homo
geneity Of the American people had
been brought home to him during his
He declared, with laugh, that this
fact was impressed upon him also dur
ing the tariff fight at Washington. We
all wear the same clothes, even to the
1dLOSI 1dSHIOuS III L40 DOHn6IS OF II0
ladies; we all speak the same language
and have the same ideas and aspiria-
tions- One of the things that strikes
one going around the country is the
exact similar attitude the people all oc-
cupy toward the questions that, effect
them in the same way-not toward the
same question, but toward those issues
toward which they have the same rela-
tion.
I'm the Indignation of the gentlemen
of the range states with reference to
free hides" the president said, "you
have counterpart in North Carolina,
for instance, where they are distinctly
in favor of 81 lumber, not as a pro-
tective tariff. of course, but,''-and the
president spoke with great mock grav-
ity-'in order that the revenues of the
government may be maintained. And
so it goes. The American nature is the
same and is affected in the same way:
affected not only by pecuniary and
mercantile conditions, but also by
higher sentiments and by looking at
the country at large and her interests
in the same way"
Arriving in Seattle tonight Mr.. Taft
will be the guest of Secretary of the
Interior and Mrs. Ballinger at an in
formal reception.

raignment of the law was to this eff
fect:
No banks went into the state insur-
ance scneme willingly. They joined un-
der commercial duress-the theory be-
ing, Others will. we must to hold what
we have"
A Question of Law.
Question of law-If a state can go
into the bank insurance business, why
may 1T not also go into the fire, life and
accident insurance business? Argu-
ment: Some citizens of the state have
bank deposits, most of them have
houses, and all have life and limbs. Why
are bank deposits subject to state pro-
lection if these other risks are not?
AS to the fraudulent action of the
law: When the first state bank applied
to Bank Commissioner Dolley for en-
trance to the guaranty scheme, this
bank deposited $50 for bond, and $500
in the good faith" fund, and received
forthwith and on the spot, a certificate
which stated that "the deposits of this
bank are fully guaranteed by the guar
anty deposit fund of the state of Kan
Sas." The banker securing this certifi-
cate. framed the same and hung it in a
conspicuous place in his bank, thereby
giving the depositors the impression
that his bank was in better condition
than the bank across the street, where
as, the entire deposits of his bank were
sGfeguarded only to the extent of the
$500 which he had himself paid to the
hank commissioner.
Mr. Gleed worked the problem up
by progression to the fact that the
fei lure OF any one of the first ten banks
which entered the association would
have wiped out the insurance fund
dozen times over. This scheme, he
argued, gave some banks a chance to
secure deposits under false pretences,
as all depositors were not lawyers. and
would take any document bearing the
seal of the state at its face value, and
consider the guaranteed" bank the
better risk
He enumerated the classes of banks
which were debarred from participation
i'll the guaranty scheme. and compared
the risks of the banks without a certain
surplus, which are debarred, with other
banks, with surplus and eligible.
which were far from being as sound
financially as the debarred bank.
Claims Hardship to Nationals.
Bale Waggener contended that the
action of the state guaranty law was a
hardship to national banks, and cited
supreme court decisions in support of
his claim that it was therefore uncon-
His law points cited that
rational banks were a necessary agen-
their protection from ruinous legislation
by states was contemplated in the laws
of 1854 A dozen or more decisions
covering this point were offered in sub
Then he followed with an
outline of the workings of the Kansas
bank guaranty law. by which he stated
the business of national banks was
ruined, and they were compelled to sur
render their charters. He contended
that the natural result of the state
scheme would be to indirectly, without
the letter of the constitution
of national banks, work their /
ruin.
