Angry Committeeman Leave

NkLAHOMA CITY. Nov. 20.-The
" Republican state committee meet
ing, held here this afternoon, practi-
cally broke up in "A row ana the state
organization Is hopelessly divided un-
less some subsequent action is taken
to bring the discordant elements to-
gcther. The trouble today started al
most immediately after State Chair
man Geissler called the meeting to
order, and the widest confusion pre-
vailed until large number of the
committeeman got up almost in IA
body and left the room.
The real break was caused over a
plan TO suinmarily depose State Chair
man Geisslcr. altho IT never progressed
to the point of being brought before
the meeting.
Chairman Arbitrary.
A half dozen members were on their
feet at the same time. endeavoring to
be hoard, but the chairman arbitrarily
refused To recognize anyone to dis
cuss the various motions, and with
eight proxies made out to himself and
about 2j others in the hands of his
personal supporters, rammed thru
his program.
After the majority of the commit
tcemen present in person or by proxies
in the hands of actual residents of the
counties from which they emanated
had left the hall, Geissler and his sup
| porters proceeded to elect r.. II.
| Samms of Nowata as secretary of the
committee, but when 1T dawncd upon
them that they had hopelessly divided
the Republican party and that an
other meeting of the state committee
was being called to undo their work
| they appointed committee of five to
confer with the Republicans who were
dissatisfied with their action. but at
late hour tonight nothing had been
accomplished.

Democratic DilIr.pnllrinr.

The president and the leaders in
Congress have decided drastic meas
ures must be adopted to check the
ceaseless flow of Democratic oratory
which is steadily throwing the work
Of Congress further behind. Several
conferences have been held but there
Is prospect OF vigorous opposition from
the Republicans to the adoption Of a
hard and fast gag rule because once
The Democrats achieve that end the
leaders are certain to attempt to utilize
Il TO put through pernicious legislation.
such, for instance, as the shipping bill,
which could not be passed were it SUBJ
lected to the strong light OF publicity
and full and fair debate.
The Republicans are in an unans-
werable position because they have
not been guilty of unduly delaying leg
lslation. Responsibility for that rests
with their verbose opponents who in
list on talking columns on every meas
ure proposed regardless Of how unim-
portant 1t may be.
The Democratic leaders are fearful
that the session will last we'll into the
tall and that they may again be COM
PEELED to resort to the expedient OF
continuing existing appropriations by
blanket resolutions because they have
not accomplished the customary work
Of passing the regular appropriation

Hardinr,s Selection.

The selection Of Senator Warren G.
Harding, OF Ohio, for temporary chair
man Of the Republican national con-
vention appears to have been a pecu-
liarly happy solution of a ditficult
problem. Senator Harding is not
closely identified with any faction of
the party but is liked by all. He is
an orator of marked ability. has fine
voice which will carry to the farthest
end OF the convention hall, is a man
of pre-eminent common sense and
wisdom and. while comparatively new
in the Senate. has fine record in his
own state.
While 1t is true that Senator Hard
ing put President Taft in nomination
four years ago, that act was regarded
as largely devolving on him because
the president was the tavorite SON of
his state, and he has not been regarded
as especially the representative Of the
"old guard" so-called. but rather as
a progressive Republican essentially
loyal to his party. Both radicals and
conservatives look to him to deliver
a mastery address at the opening of
the convention, to launch the great
meeting on its difficult labors in the
most BETTING manner and with all the
enthusiasm the occasion calls for.

Funston's Orders.

The radical discrepancy between the
Official orders issued to General Funs-
ton by Commander-in-Chief Wilson,
and the public statement, made on
March 10. by President Wilson occas-
Ions little surprise in Washington,
where frank and sincere statement
smanating from the White House
would occasion actual amazement. The
discrepancy does, however, explain
why certain Carranzista officials,
doubtless with the approval OF their
chief, expect and demand that the
american troops be promptly with
drawn. The official orders, which were
communicated to Carranza when the
American forces crossed the boundary.

You and Your Bank Account.

When the banker accepts your &C.
count, and gives you a pass book and
check book, he has the right to ex-
pect certain things from you, as you
have the right, legally and morally, to
expect certain things from him.
In the first place, he has the right to
expect a profit from your account.
Banking is an expensive business. It
costs certain amount to handle every
check that passes through the hank,
and every account should contribute a
portion to the expenses Of the bank,
however small. When your banker
asks you to keep certain balance, he
Is merely asking his right to a profit
from your account. It is easily to be
seen that IL you keep small balance,
say ten dollars, and the banker fur
nishes you with stationery, does the
necessary bookkeeping on the account
(for your benefit as well as hiss, the
earning power OF that ten dollars, even
II 1t were all invested at six per cent,
would be insufficient to compensate
him for then cost attending that ac-
count Therefore be generous and give
him chance to make profit; for as
every sale OF merchandise should show
a profit, SO every bank account should
at least pay Its way. Give him as large
balance as you can possibly keep
1t will help you very much in his esti-
nation, help your credit, and add to
your self respect.
Second. Never overdraw. In national
banks oyerdrafts are now forbidden.
but whether they were or not. you
have no right to ask 1t. 1t hurts your
credit with the banker. 1t Is a forced
loan without security, and is q poor
business practice.
Sometimes an overdraft is allowed
as a matter Of accommodation, and
sometimes in order that the credit of
the drawer with the holder of the
check may not be impaired; but 1t is
bad practice. gets you in wrong all
over and should neither be asked nor
expected. I
Third. Do not draw against "Uncol-
lected funds" By unsolicited funds Is
meant checks that have not been COL
lected. For instance. II you have
balance Of 800. and deposit hundred
dollar check and draw your own check
for $3.50, you have taken all the origi-
nal deposit and half OF the amount
represented by the check just depos-
tied. The banker must send that check,
let us say to New York, and wait for
advice that 1t is paid before knowing
that 1t has been paid, which may take
three or four days. You are asking
him to pay out his money three days
in advance Of It's receipt, a practice
which good banks frown upon and
will not allow. Lastly, draw your
checks properly, and have your pass
book balanced once a month. Doing
these things consistently. your banker
will be good friend and you will be
good customer, in favor with one who
can do you many favors.

Carranza PLAYING Horse.

General" Carranza Is playing horse
with Mr.. Wilson, precisely as he has
always done. Mr.. Wilson gave his
solemn assurance to the A. B. c. medI-
ators, two years ago, that II they would
agree upon q plan for a provisional
government OF Mexico which appealed
to him president Wilson, as just, he
would guarantee that Carranza would
accept It. The mediators devised such
a plan, procured the approval OF the
Huertistas and that Of Mr.. Wilson,
but Carranza did no such thing. A
year later President Wilson invited the
Mexican chiefs to meet in a confer
ence to choose president OF Mexico.
Carranza refused to participate in such
conference and Invited Mr.. Wilson
to mind his own business. And for
brief time, Mr.. Wilson did. Then
President Wilson called together GER
tain South American diplomats and
invited them to Join the United tSates
in recognizing Carranza as president,
with certain pledges from the old ban
dit as to religious liberty, freedom
from looting, etc.
The South Americans agreed. Car
rama accepted the recognition and
tossed the proposed pledges into the
waste basket. Having recognized Car
rama, lent him all the moral support
possible and even tried to induce
American bankers to finance him,
President Wilson has now been forced
to take steps to drive Carranza's rival,
villa, from the field. And once more
Carranza is laughing at Mr.. Wilson,
refusing to let him use the Mexican
railroads and putting every obstacle
he can, short OF actual force, in the
way Of the accomplishment OF his
avowed purpose. Some Americans are
a little sensitive at being thus humll-
lated, but evidently Carranza's Sights
and sneers slide easily of the White
House back.
