Although Present AsgneS and Their Attorneys Did Represent Single
Bonaide DepOsO When Bank Closed They Want to Have
Full Control of Its Final Settlement

A circular letter, with an ac-
companying petition addressed to
Judge Jones appeared yesterday
and is being circulated by stock
holders and directors of the defunct
Commercial Bank & Trust Co.
This is the result of the meetings
of the stockholders and directors
held last week, which was forecast.
ed in Saturdays Leader.
To sum up the whole matter as
presented in the communication to
the depositors. by the stockholders
committee who are asking the de-
positors to sign, it would appear
that those vitally interested are
asking that the dogs be called in
from the chase because the game is
being too closely pressed. From
the former bank owners standpoint
it is now getting to the point
where not only they stand to lose
their stock; but will have to dig
up, in addition, amounts to pay
for derelictions while the institu-
tion was running
The idea intended to be impress
ed on the deposition through the
entire circular and petition is that
the present assignees and their at.
torneys will lead them to a haven
of rest, notwithstanding the fact
that at the time they took charge
and just before the bank closed,
they did not represent 5 cents
worth of bona fide deposits, three
of them being stockholders be-
sides. Even Mr.. Geo. Bowsky, a
director, who had over $4,000 on
deposit, says he was not taken into
their meetings before the bank
closed and this being the case, they
were not representing Mr.. Bowsky
any more than any other depositor
who was unaware of what was
taking place.

Another paragraph states that:

that in their opinion the Bank S

in court cost and expenses.
This paragraph guarantees moth

ranged for the day was carried out

resulted. The first speaker of the

Representative in Congress from
this District Mr.. Brady made a
strong appeal to the voters, declar-
ing that Lincoln county through all
these many years has never had a
representative in the halls of con-
gress from this county, while most
of the other counties had been rep
resented in the past. He said that
the other counties have stood by
their candidates at all times and
given them as far as possible the
entire voting strength of their
county. He appealed to the voters
to stand Loyalty by our candidate,
as he is home man and that they
should have enough county pride
alb out them to give him the united
strength of the county. He declar-
ed that Judge Jones was in every
way qualified and peculiarly suited
for his position His speech was
we'll received and the audience ap-
peared to be fully in sympathy

Senator RansdeII on Divorce. /"

10 an address before the Univer.
sity of Notre Dame, Indiana, Sena
tor Joseph E RansdelI, of Louisi'
ana, said in a commencement
address:
In this county statistics have
increased 319 per cent within the
last thirty years That there were
more than twice as many divorces
in the United States in 1901 thar
in the rest of Christendom combin-
ed. He drew a striking comparI.
son of the divorce evil which spell.
ed the downfall of Rome, and he
prophesied that it might result
similarly in this land.
For the first 500 years of the
republic marriage was a religious
sacrament and divorce was un-
known. He said:
"Our marriage and divorce laws
are framed according to the whim
of the legislators of each individual
state, and the result is a veritable
patchwork, which runs the gamut
of matrimonial delinquencies, from
that of South Carolina, which
grants on divorce, and New York,
which grants divorce for adultery
only, to that of the State of Wash
ington, which permits absolute
divorce for any cause deemed by
the court sufficient. =
Senator Ransdell's parting advice
to the graduating lawyers was to
refuse to practice in divorce cases
and to aid in the prevention of
breaking the marriage bonds by
bringing about reconciliation. .

they favored and suggested others
to their liking? Why should they
call on depositors to help them and
complain at the expense in the
interest of the depositors just al
this juncture when with the Bank s
promise of dollar for dollar and the
law making the depositors the first
consideration, the depositors are
safe in either case? The Bank
must believe its own promise and
abide by the law they themselves
have published. The concern over
the situation cannot be in the inter
est. therefore, of the depositors;
but of the stockholders themselves,
as every member of the. committee
named on the circular will have
suits against them to recover for
the depositors according to present
orders.

of Judge of the Chancery Court of
this District. Mr.. Taylor COM
menced with brief discussion of
the Chancery Court and its impor-
tance to the people, He declared
that this court approached nearer
to the fireside of the people than
any other court. That it protected
the widow and the orphan and was
a safeguard to them in times of
trouble. He urged the importance
of the people electing man who
is honest, capable and in every way
worthy of this exalted position.
He declared that this position had
been held in the past by men who
had added honor and dignity to
the position and who had fully
measured up to the expectation of
their constituents. He mentioned
the names of Conn, Mayes, LyelI
and Jones. He hoped to be able in
every way to keep up the standard
of excellency set by his worthy
predecessors. He believed in the
elective judiciary; that the appoint.
i've system was a relict handed
down to US by the carpet-baggers
just after the Civil war. He be-
lieved in trusting the people: that
they could be depended on at all
times to do the right thing and
