retreat in some SYLVAN dell with

yict labor competing with free labor
has been long and bitter. 1t has
caused come legislation that was
foolish and some that was cruel. The
Wertz lazy was both.
The happy solution promised by
Mr. Cox is to put convict labor

CRAFTSMANSHIP IN FINANCE.
Taft the Only Candidate Offering q
Definite Plan for Banking Reform
That Based Upon the Monetary
Commissions Report.

New York, Oct. 14.-In emphasizing
the country's need of an adequate,
banking System, President Taft.
fiayed certain of his political adver-
saries by inference tonight, when he
said: "It is one of the gravest faults
of our public men that, instead of
pursuing policies of constructive
statesmanship. they advocate meas
ures which appeal to the prejudices
of the unthinking and the ignorant;
in other words, they headline the at
tention of the people,"
Using the proposed banking reform
measures as an example. President
Taft demonstrated how the greatest
Of his political rivals have sidestepped
the question which he declared to
be one of the most important ever
brought to the attention of this
country.
Financial discussions, according to
President Taft, are things which have
no popular appeal. 1t is hard to
make the layman understand the diff
ference between money and credit
and after he has understood that 1t
is hard to make him believe that
either Of them have very much to do
with such intimate realities as the
cost of living.
This gives rise, according to the
president, "to one of the inherent
faults of our form of government.
The votes of the unthinking are as
good as those of the most intelligent,
and our public men therefore turn
aside from real questions to minor Is
sues which have some popular side
upon which strong appeal may be
made for the enormous vote which "a
cast by the prejudiced and the
ignorant"
That is why America, in the midst
of boasted progress. retains the worst
banking system in the world. That
is why America of all Civilized coun-
tries in the world has money panics
and that is why 1t Is impossible to
prevail upon congress to provide a
new system which will eliminate the
out-ofdate conditions which produce
such unnatural and undesirable re-
suits.
In concluding his address. Presi-
dent Taft told how congress- had ap-
pointed the national monetary COM
mission and how that body, after four
years of work had submitted plans
for a new banking system which
would prevent panics, discourage
stock market gambling and encour-
age legitimate trade. This report,
ne said, had been signed unanimously
by Democrats and Republicans. He
himself has repeatedly endorsed 1t In
messages and in public speeches, but
1t has been impossible to gain real
consideration or serious discussion OF
1t. he says, by any of the presidential
candidates of other parties
