THE BANK CASES.

A new grand jury has recently been selected
for this comfy. and the people are OF the hrm
OF inion that it is a good one They expect Inat
the grand Jury will properly perform ltS uu'!'
and it is up to that body to protect the peoPle ,
interests and show that the confidence is not
misplaced Several cases will come before the
grand Jury relative to the detunct Nye anu
Ormsby County bank which demand prompt ana
stringent action. 1t is the burden duty Oh the
district attorney to that these matters are
properly placed before the inqulsltOrlal Dooy Oh
the county The former district attorney, OW-
mo to the fact that an election was approach
mo failed TO take the action that was justly
right. He deserted the people i'll their hour OF
need Should the incumbent prove as talthless
to his trust his political future will be ruined
The defunct bank held, at the time OF It's de-
mise, about 100000 of the taxpayers money.
That money should be regained, if possible
At the present time it is understood that IN
the neighborhood of $4,000 can be recovered
The taxpayers need that amount badly-they
need the entire amount. And it rests with the
grand jury and district attorney to recover on
behalf of their numerous clients
Unless action is taken by the present grand
Jury the case # the people is hopeless, as the
statute of limitation will protect the busted
bank next February This fact should be borne
in mind by not only the members of the nqulsi
toria body but also by the district attorney
whose duty it is to direct the jury's action and
offer them every assistance in his power
Furthermore it is the duty of the grand
Jury to insist that Messrs. Boyd and Hall, for
mer receiver and attorney for the detmct IN
stitution, be brought before it and furnish all
the information in their possession. They are
both perfectly willing to be called upor, and
the rest is up to the officials of Nye county.
The district attorney, formerly legal represen-
tative of the bank has personally disqualified
himself from prosecuting the cases. Therefore,
the attorneys who are to succeed him in the
matter should also be in conference with the
grand jury session the representatives of Nyc
county.
The public is watching with critical eye the
action of the grand jury and also of the pres
ent district attorney. Their interests must be
protected and these officials the guardians
of the people affairs.

TAFT A Draw LAD"

That President Taft is well thought OF by
at least one of our Canadian cousins is en-
phasized by the following gem from the literary
casket which was recently received in the White
House mail:

Devoid alike O fortune an o. fame,
Wi three score years o worldly joys an pangs,
Wad like to bless We, sir, afore he gangs.

The sympathetic heart, the brain that lifts.

Glory to God-on earth good will to man.

INSURGENTS LINING UP.

We find another indication that the msur-
gents are DESTROYS of reconciling their political
differences with President Taft in the speech
of Representative Lenroot of Kansas one OF the
most radical of their number, in the house of
representatives recently. During the debate on
Canadian reciprocity, Mr. Lenroot said The
progressive republicans have never been free
traders. challenge anyone to point to any
speech made by progressive republican IN con
gress or elsewhere advocating free trade. |
stand for a protective tariff measuring duties
by the difference of cost of production at home
and abroad. !"
He gave expression to the views of the presi-
dent as we have been able to understand them.
We recall that Mr. Taft had the Ohio state plat
form, which was generally taken declaration
of his personal politics, specifically confine the
need of the country for protective tariff to
such basis. The president signed the Payne
Aldrich bill because it was the best revision pos
sible at the time. Had he vetoed it, there
would have been no alteration of the schedules
in effect prior to it's enactment, many Of which
had been rendered obsolete and injurious by the
change in economic conditions.
But at once the president set about reducing
consideration of the tariff to a science He
forced through the bill creating tariff board
and during the Sxty-frst congress tried in
every way possible to get permanent tariff
commission to be composed of experts and to
be entrusted with the adjustment of duties in
way to make them represent the disparity in
cost of production, as Representative Lenroot
said the insurgents desired
Let the good work go on. We predict that
every insurgent who has the welfare of the
country at heart will soon find that the presi-
dent has not gone very far from his political
ideals.

SPECULATION ON DELAY.

Continued delay in handing down the long
expected decisions in the Standard oil and TO-
bacco trust cases greatly perpleXes the country,
and especially the stock market. Every success
sive Monday eXpectant audiences gather IN the
supreme court room in Washington to hear what
the court finds in relation to these cases. on
which so many interests are supposed to turn,
but week after week the walters on providence
have been disappointed
Naturally the delay in making these overdue
decisions has provoked wide speculation Two
theories are thus expOunded by the Chicago
Tribune:
1t is possible that the delay is due to
deadlock One of the justices-Van
Devanter-sat in the circuit court when
the Standard oil suit was tried. lie
agreed with the other judges in the
conclusion that the Standard Oil com
pany of New Jersey was violator OF
the antitrust act. Therefore the pre-
sumption is that he has taken no part in
the deliberations of the supreme court
as far as this case is concerned That
would leave but eight judges. Four of
them may be of one mind and four OF
another. If the tie could not be broken,
the decision of the lower court would
stand That would be an unfortunate
conclusion in that an authoritative eX-
position of the law by the supreme court
would be lacking. But this would not
explain the delay in the American to-
bacco company case. None of the JUS
tees sat in the lower court when it
was heard SO it may be that the JUS
tees endeavoring to prepare opin-
ions which shall have the approval of
a nearly unanimous court.
The latter theory is the one most comment,
accepted It is stated that Chief Justice Whit
is anxious that a unanimous or PRACTICAL,
unanimous decision shall be rendered, so as t
bvate the sort of criticism that often follow
The ruling of divided court
Still another explanation has it that the corr
is swamped with business that the justice
have not yet had time to digest the oil ain
tobacco cases.
1t is not clear why so much should be though
to turn those decision. The utmost expects

With Utah giving condemned murderers their
choice between shooting and hanging; Nevada
allowing them to choose between hanging and
taking poison; New York searching them to
death with electricity; and with hanging as the
standard in other death penalty states there
would seem to be but one old-time standard now
