* Is not the man who la a « * depositor in banks, or who ex- jj * pects to be a depositor, just as s , much entitled to security for ft * his money as the nation, the *ft , * state, the county, the city, the ft W town and the township? Is he ft * more interested in having his ft * small share of the public money ft ® made safe than he is in having ft « his private funds, whi i mean ft! W so much to him and his family, ft ft made equally secure? The ft * Democratic party and its can- ft ft didates are pledged to the pas- ft Sf sage of a law guaranteeing the ft ft deposits of all persons. The ft Hf Republican party and its can- ft ft didates are opposed to such a ft ft law. If the voter favors such ft ft a law the only way he can se- ft ft cure it is by voting the Demo- ft ft cratfc ticket. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft FORGERY, FRAUD OR FOLLY? The Republican enemies of Mr. Bryan never did Grover Cleveland a greater injury than that which they have caused by printing an article on the present campaign and its candidates, which they say was written by the now dead ex-president. The authenticity of the article has been denied by some of Mr. Cleveland’s real friends. But whether genuine or not—whether it Is a case of forgery, fraud or folly—the publication of the article is of Republican instigation. In it Mr. Cleveland —if he wrote it—raps the party which made him three times its candidate for president. In it, also, Mr. Cleveland —if he wrote it —indorses Taft and opposes Bryan, though he died before either of them was nominated, before the platforms were made and before the issues were settled. This is all unlike Mr. Cleveland and is in itself evidence of the spurious character of the writing. Besides, for two or three months be fore he died Mr. Cleveland was a mortally sick man in a hotel at Lakewood, New Jersey. He was so sick that when the hotel was closed at the end of its season he could not be removed, and, attended only by his physicians and nurses, remained for weeks the sole guest in the house. And yet the paper that published the writing states that "just before his death” Mr. Cleveland planned and wrote the article, and that after his death some unnamed "literary agent” obtained it from his executor, who, it happens, is a Republican. On its face the article is an imitation in some degree of Mr. Cleveland's style, but is little better than a travesty, and is doubtless a foolish and clumsy forgery. But whether the article is genuine or forged, it will not help the Republicans. Seven members of Cleveland’s cabinet are living. Carlisle and Dickinson are permanently out of politics. The other five, David R. FranciS, Richard Olney, Hoke Smith, Judson Harmon and Hillary A. Herbert, are all actively supporting Bryan and Kern. STILL RUNNING AWAY. A dispatch from Chicago to the Indianapolis News of Sept. 1. says: A man who is high in the councils of the Republican party said today: "If we had to fight out the campaign on the issue* Bryan has raised—tariff reform, publicity of campaign contributions, regulation of the trusts, guaranty of bank deposits, etc.—we woflld. I believe, stand to lose. But we intend to put those issues in the background by Making Bryan himself the real in sue. We think we can convince the people that the election of Mr. Bryan would prolong the present financial situation. We shall make our appeal to every man, whether he be at the head of a corporation or be working for a corporation, that if he wants to sse prosperity return he must vote the Republican ticket” Well, the Republicans may as well understand that they will have a mighty hard time putting ’’those issues in the background." All of them are going to stay in the foreground, where they will be seen and felt. But Democrats do not object to Republicans making Bryan an additional issue if they feel like it. The Democratic party can win on Bryan alone, and do it hands down. But when the Republicans say that "the election of Mr. Bryan would prolong the present financial situation” the country will ask wto caused the "present financial sit atlon,” And when they go to talk! g about wanting “to »e« prosperity »e---turn" they will have to explain who ft was that caused prosperity to go.

the special session of the legislature. The people of the state were astounded when they learned that Gov- ' ernor Hanly had issued a call for a ■pecial session of the legislature, to i begin Sept. 18th. The reasons given 1 ky the governor for this startling action are that he wants some blunders made by the regular session in the appropriation iaws corrected, wants something done about the “night ■ iders, wants the Vincennes University bond law repealed and a county local option law enacted. These are the things that Governor Hanly specifies. There is no doubt that there was blundering legislation : by the Republican majority at the reg-1 ular session, which now adds to the state’s financial embarrassments, just 1 as there was extravagance and gen- • eral incompetency on the part of that same majority. But these financial difficulties could have been tided over by a capable executive without putting the people to SIOO,OOO expense in doing it. And that is what the special session will probably cost the people, along with the cost of the many special elections that will be necessary to fill vacancies. All of the matters enumerated by the governor in his call as now desirable to be done might have been attended to at the regular session by the Republican majority. Not a single valid excuse is given for saddling upon the taxpayers of the state this unnecessary and wholly indefensible expense. Governor Hanly knows, if he i possesses the wisdom that he assumes, that the state’s affairs could have been conducted until the next legislature meets in January, without this extraordinary session. But the real reason for calling the expensive special session is not stated by Governor Hanly in his proclamation. A bitter quarrel between the Republican factions is the actual cause. For some time it has been common talk that Governor Hanly had demanded written pledges from James E. Watson as to his attitude toward the counJ , ty local option law, the Vincennes Unii versity claim, the Babcock insurance bill and other pet measures of the governor. It is declared that Hanly threatened to call a special session if Watson failed to "come through.” In what respects Watson failed to satisfy the governor is not yet known, but it is known that the different Republican factions were soon in a fierce quarrel and Hanly has carried out his threat. This quarrel will cost the taxpayers of Indiana something near SIOO,OOO. It is a sheer waste of money. There is not a single reason to justify it. If the Republican party continues much longer in the state house there will be little left but the building and the taxpayers’ load will become unbearable. THE USUAL MR. HARRIS. When the Republican managers in Indiana are in direful need of the opinion of a lawyer to bolster up some campaign contention they always turn to the Hon. Addison C. Harris. And they never turn in vain. Mr. Harris served for four years as minister to Austria and made a study of the language of diplomacy —of hew to say a thing very frankly without meaning a word of it. So, therefore, while he winks the other eye, Mr. Harris tells the Republican managers that, in his humble judgment—speaking as a loyal Republican who Is anxious to help his party out as a hole and with the hope that what he says will not be tea long remembered —the. double, back-action scheme of county local option elections and township and ward remonstrances will stand the strain of the law. For thus risking his reputation as a lawyer Mr. Harris will receive the warm thanks of the party managers, just as he has in the past when he has been called on for similar services. But Mr. Harris’s opinion will not fool' anybody. Mr. Wat-on’s figures on state finances are just about the most wonderful thing that anyone ever saw or heard. A i spectable manipulator of the game o the three shells aqd the little pea would be ashamed of such blundering.
