STRANGE FOR A BRrrIsHER.
VIM. Muirhead, Native of Great Brit
ain, Makes Fourth of July Address.

William Muirhead, who delivered
the Fourth of July Grafton at Nc
Louth in Jefferson county, was born
IN Great Britain, and is one of the
few, the very few native born Scotch
or Britons who ever officiated in this
country upon such an occasion. Mr..
Muirhead is Scotch himself, but he is
proud of having spoken at an Ameri-
can Fourth of July celebration. He
made good speech. too, according
to the reports from Jefferson county,
talking about the heroic struggles Of
Lexington and Concord with all the
pride of down east Yankee.
Asked about his experience TODAY
Mr.. Muirhead declared that he was
never treated so well in his life be-
lore as ne was at McLouth, and he
said he never had a better time ar
made talk of which he was so proud.

Colonel Roosevelt Promises to Make a
Speech in Indiana.

oyster Bay, N. Y, July S.-Albert J.

and consistent of the progressive Re-
puohcans, came down from Sycamore

Roosevelt to deliver a campaign speech

ate Mr.. Beveridge departed content
to make the announcement. of the pro-
posed campaign speech in the senator
behalf And this is what Mr.. Roose-
welt said:
Mr.. Foulke and Mr.. Swift came to
Sycamore Hill and spent the night
here. They came to request me to 90

to make only one speech for the SEN

will make only one. The time and
ploce for this speech has not been
fixed
Those who have followed the political
conferences at Oyster Bay since Theo-
dore Roosevelt's return share the belief
that he has been feeling his way cau-
tiously in his attitude toward the adj
ministration and the insurgents, but
this incident is considered the most i'm
portant yet developed. Senator Bev-
eridge is making his fight for re-elec-
ton as an insurgent. He is opposed by
the last campaign.
In his fight the senator is placing
himself squarely against President
Taft insofar as the tariff law figures.
The law which the president has de-
Tended as the best tariff measure ever,
is denounced without equivocation by.
the senator and the same Republican
state convention which endorsed Bev
eridge for another term virtually re-
pudiated the law In the senate Bev-
eridge fought the bill to the last and
then voted against it.
1t is pointed out, however. with this
exception, President Taft and the sem
ator from Indiana have been pulling
together as far as administration
policies are concerned. There has been
no break between them. The president
entrusted to the senator the conduct of
two administration measures at the
last session of congress-the statehood
bill and the Alaska government bill
And although the senator worked faith
fully with the -insurgent band in the
senate and had hand in the alteration
of President Taft's railroad bill he sup

vent Multiplication.

instructions Have Been For.
warded Examiners.

Washington, D. c., July S.-The
comptroller of the currency in the flu
ture will take drastic action to curb
the multiplication of national banks
| in various parts of the country. where
the need for them is more or less
problematic and where they are or
ganized principally to benefit the pro-
| meters.
The national bank law leaves the
comptroller small room for discretion
or action in the premises, but such
authority as he does possess under the
statutes he proposes to exercise in be-
half of sound finance.
When application is made at the
office of the comptroller for the es-
adjustment of a national bank if the
papers are in proper form and it is
shown that the preliminaries to the
organization have been duly per-
formed. there is little left for him to
do but to issue the charter The law
does not give him authority to ques-
ton the needs of the community or to
bother much about the likelihood of
the bank being financial success.
But the comptroller has hit upon
two courses of action which he thinks
Will have restraining influence upon
the multiplication of such banks.
In the first instance he has issued
an order directed at the promoters of
national banks providing that the cor
respondent of the proposed national
Ocilh SIldIl De d BONA hoe resident OF
the town or city where the bank is to
be established. and that he shall own
personally a certain number of paid
up shares in the concern to be estab-
liShed.
1t appears that in various parts of
the country class of professional bank
promoters has grown up. They go from
place to place, get local capitalists in
terested, and resort to more or less de-
vious ways to OBTAIN the charters for
ba INKS, making a profitable commission
of the stock they succeed in selling be-
fore and aftec the institution is chart
cred The ruling of the comptroller is
intended to stop his method of organic
il g banks.
The other course of action looks to
the liquidation of certain banks which
may violate the loan regulations of the
banking act, or otherwise strain their
credit and run along on the verge Of
suspension. The bank act provides that
in cases where overloanS have been
made to the point of impairing the SOL
vency of the bank that the comptroller
may apply to the solicitor of the treas
ury for a forfeiture of the charter The
comptroller argues that IN cases where
the directors decline te go into volun-
tGry liquidation this course will act as
measure of forcing them TODD So,
drd thus save the integrity Of the stock.
The comptroller has sent out instruc-
lions to the bank examiners of the coun-
try how to act in these cases. and
v here It is found that the bad condi-
ton of banks cannot be speedily i'm
proved they will be closed
