For the third time in succession now"
she said, -the association has named its
president from one little narrow section
of this great nation OF ours. This year
the treasurer as well comes from the
middle West. That scarcely sounds like
a description of the broad national body
which treats all parts of the country with
equal Justice.

formed an organization of their orn.

DR.. Wiley continued: Il thoroughly
agree with Judge Gary that unless
something is done to alleviate the
present conditions of unrest mob rule
is bound to come. The sentiment of
unrest and adherence comes from
over capitalization, the selling cf wa
tered stock, the promotion of worth

Understanding with L. r.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. = Indica-
tions that Taft has inside information
that Roosevelt will not be a candidate
for the republican presidential nom
ination are seen in statement made
today by the president on his return
from New York.
"The time has come" said Taft,
"when the political atmosphere must
be cleared up. The next four months
will be consumed by me in showing
up lies, hypocrisy and misrepresenta-
ton.
Misrepresentation must be expect
ed, and met during the coming cam
paign The confidence of the demo-
Gratis is clearly misplaced. This is
due to Misunderstanding. Stung
by recent attacks. Taft indicated that
his future course be on the offense
as well as defense.
Taft opened his attack in Ohio and
followed it up last night by speech
at a republican club banquet. He
told callers today that he would con-
tinue to "combat the misrepresenta-
tion" of his administration both within
and without party and declared that he
intended to make direct attack and
firm defense" in every speech he de-
livered."

FARMERS BACK NEW KENDRICK BANK
PAYING MORE THAN PAR FOR STOCK

KENDRICK, Feb. 49,, 8 p. m. (Spe-
cial to the Star Mirror Never in the
history of this community was there
such intense Indignation as has been
aroused by the closing of the Ken
drick State bank. Everywhere are the
people openly expressing their disap-
prOval Of the entire transaction, it be-
ing openly charged that the bank was
closed as the result Of ''frame-up."
In justification Of this charge it is al
legged that the examiner, in the face
Of immediate assistance that would
have made the bank sound and put it
beyond the reach of question, and i'll
the face Of his promise to accompany
Mr.. Bradbury to Moscow where the
matter might be arranged, suddenly
changed his mind, just before the
train pulled into Kendrick from Lewis
ton, and instead Of coming to Moscow
got off and closed the bank. 1t is
charged that the examiner at once
took all the cash from the Kendrick
State bank and turned it over to the
VOllmer people in the opposition bank,
and further turned the books Of the
closed bank over to the opposition
bank. 1t is further alleged that Ed
AtchisOn, of the Vollmer bank, after
getting the closed banks books, went
out and offered sixty cents on the dol
lar for deposits in the defunct bank.
1t is pointed out that for years there
has been bitter opposition on the part
of the VOIlmer interests against the
Kendrick State bank, and it is openly
charged that the undue haste in clos.
ing the bank, and the turning of it
over to the VOllmer people, giving
them access to the books and papers,
justifies the charge of ''frame-up."
The incident has created the most
intense Indignation. Evidence Of pub
lie sentiment is indicated in the sup
port that is coming to the closed bank.

Star -Mirror) 1.-THE failure of the Ken
drick State bank, which at one time
threatened to be an absolute curse to
the community, will develop into the
greatest blessing ever for the Potlatch
country. This is the unanimous verdict
in Kendrick and the surrounding
country today
Urged by the alleged unfair" tactics
used in forcing the closing of the
bank, between so and 60 of the
wealthiest farmers in the Potlatch
country have united in support of the
bank, and will either take over the
old bank, or will organize a new con-
Germ.
The new Kendrick State bank will
be the strongest financial institution
in the state of Idaho. The capital
stock is limited to $4,000, and the de-
mand for it among the farmers of the
Potlatch country is so strong that
stock, with a par value of $100 per
share, in the yet unorganized company,
is today selling for $3.50 cash, per
share, and at that quotation the stock
is far over-subscribed.
The organization will be perfect
ed this afternoon, and the officers viii
be chosen at that time. The lnel
behind the movement, and among tie
heaviest stockholders, are Martin Y.
Thomas, Clauss Eikner, Sam Callison,
DR.. Mosier, Sam Bigham and Frank
Benscotter and besides these there
arc two score of other heavy taxrGy-
ers and successful farmers behind the
institution. All were depositors in
the defunct bank
Whether the Bradburys will have an
interest in the bank is not known. 1t
would be hard to find man in Ken
drick or the Potlatch country, not
connected with rival banking inst u
tion, who does not express absolute
confidence in the Bradburys, and adj
miration for the way in which they
were putting the bank on a firm f,n-
ancial basis when the crash came.
