ONE CURE ALL LOST.

-Four years ago government guaran-
tee OF bank deposits was a principal
plank in the Democratic platform.
Then Mr.. Bryan went up and down the
land preaching government guarantee
as the sole salvation for the Ameri.
can people. Tho Baltimore platform
Is strangely silent as To government
guarantee OF bank deposits.
Why
Are the American people in less
need Of being saved now than they
we're four years ago? Have bank
failures ceased. and have the periIs

could avert in 1908 been entirely dis.

Writing about the deferred
opening game on the West Side
park is becoming sort of habit,
but Charley Murphy is positive
tho contest will be pulled off to,
day Unless there is cloudEurst.s
Several hundred bugs were dis.
appointed after reaching the park
yesterday by the news that the
battle would be postponed until
today. The reason given was wet
grounds, but if proper remedies
hadbeen applied the playing field
could have been put in shape for
the athletes. Garry Hermann
let out a long wall, but it didn't
get him anything.
Probably the real reason was
that Chance and Murphy seized
on the wet grounds excuse to save
their athletes from a possible
beating. Right now the Cubs are
not going any too we'll, and the
Reds are at the top of their speed,

pretty near the mark.

Walter Johnson, the speedy

set last year, when he had a win

W. w. ROPER, PENDLETON,
PIONEER PAYS CITY VISIT
Has Communication From II. NJ. Tur-
ner, Also Former Local Citizen,
Telling of Success of Bank He Es-
tablished in Texas.

w. w. Roper, pioneer resident and
business man of Pendleton, has been
here today visiting with old friends
and noting the difference between
the Pendleton of today and the Pen
dleton of the early ninties. Mr.. Rop-
eT came here in 1879 and along with
others met with disaster here in 49,
At that time he owned the property
where the federal building is to be
located and also part of the present
Chinatown.
Since leaving here Mr.. Roper has
been upon the road most of the time.
Two years ago he purchased some
fruit land near Freewater and he is
now planning to build a house and
locate there.
Mr.. Roper is just in receipt of a
very interesting letter from Marvin
Turner, well known former resident
of the city and son of Mrs. ]. H. Tur-
ner of East Alta street. Thinking
the letter will be of interest to local
friends of Mr.. Turner he has con-
sented to its publication. 1t is as
follows:
Ell Paso, Texas, Jan. II, 1912.
Mr.. w. w. Roper,
Milton, oregon.
My dear William: Your postal re-
ceived this morning and it was like
a pleasing breath from the life of
long ago. Have often thought of the
old friends and wondered what had
become of you and many others.
Yes, l am still here and letter ad-
dressed to me care of this bank will
reach me at any time. My home
address is 1920 Montana Street, and
letter to that address will reach
me.
/ am one of the organizers of this
bank and its first and only president.
We opened for business less than two
years ago and the bank has had a
fine success. Retired from the law
business at that time and took the
management of the bank as its ex-
ecutive.
Shall be pleased to hear from you
at any time.
Yours respectfully,
r. NJ. TURNER.
