It seems to be James E. Watson’s idea that a considerable part of the 1250,000,000 surplus taken from tne people by excessive taxes should be given, in the form of subsidies, to the steamship companies controlled by Harriman, Hill, Morgan, Rockfeller and other impecunious persons. Just watch Watson —and also the other Replican congressmen.

During the 1906 campaign the Republican state- committee and the republican newspapers “pointed with pride” to the price of hogs and other things, and told the farmers it was due to a Republican administration. And now, let us ask, what are they prepared to say about the late prices of bogs and other things? We still have, unfortunately, a Republican administration.

Now that Ohio has two avowed Republican candidates for president—Taft and Foraker—a bitter struggle may be looked for. And it will be all the more bitter because the tight is both personal and factional. Unless Roosevelt abandons him, Taft will have support of the national administration forces, while Foraker will have back of him every anti-Roosevelt element in the state. The fight will split the Ohio Republicans as they have never been split before, and probably destroy any chance they may have to carry the state at the next election.

And now Charley Landis, republican congressman from the Ninth Indiana district, has come forward and advocates Mr. Bryan’s idea of the government guarantee of deposits in national banks. He says the proposition is growing in favor, and that he is convinced that this simple expedient will do more to re-establish confidence in banks and thereby stop withdrawls of money and coax out of hiding money that has been hoarded, than anything else that has been sugges ed. Mr Landis is also convinced that it would settle the postal savings bank question. He says that banks that are chartered by the Government and inspected by the Government should have their integrity guaranteed by the Government. He says that a tax of one tenth or one-twelfth of 1 per cent on the deposits would be ample. He feels that under such a law every national banker in the country would be alert to discover weakness or delinquency in his brother bankers, and that in a short time nearly all the banks would be nationalized or that State and private banks would take steps looking to the raising of funds that would give depositors the same protection.

THE “HUNYAK” EXODUS.

Tens of thousands of alien laborers are returning to Europe from the United States. They are of various nationalities that have been commonly called “Hunyaks” in this country. They were brought over by the big corporations, the tariff protected “infant industries” to compete with American labpr. When the panic came they started home with their savings and will spend their money in foreign lands. While in this country they voted the Republican ticket, when they voted at all, and helped to uphold the beautiful Republican tarriff which the eloquent Republican orators and the learned Republican editors have been telling American workingmen was designed fortheir “protection” and give them better wages. But the American workingmen know that the tariff does not increase their wages. Such protection as they have had they have gotten for themselves. With families on' their hands to support, they have bad to fight for living wages I against a horde of unmarried for-1

eigners who came,' free of duty, not to become permanent citizens but to get all the money they could and then go back home and spend it. They crowded out and crowded down men with wives and children, who, because they must live decently, and not after the manner of the Hunyak, were paying the heavy tax imposed by the beautiful and sacred Republican tariff.

SUPPOSE?

Suppose when the present financial stringency first struck the country the democratic newspapers and the democratic politicians had assumed the same attitude that republican politicians and republican newspaper assumed in 1893? What do you think would have been the result? Honestly and candidly you know that not a solitary bank in the country would have been able to withstand the rush of frightened depositors. Everyone of them would have bad to close their doors and the greatest panic and business collapse the world bad even seen would have resulted.

Every reader knows how the republican papers heralded in blackfaced type the failure of even the smallest banks in 1893, as “Another Bank Gone Democratic,” and the politicians of that party and many of the business men stood about the street corners or in front of their places of business and with long-drawn faces prated about bow everything was going to the dogs, and secretly hoped that it would. All knew that the financial depression then bad started under a republican administration, and, that if blame was attached to the administration, that the republicans were the party at fault. Yet in every way possible they did everything they could to irritate and exaggerate the situation and prolong it. In patriotic contrast to the attitude of the republican press and republican politicians of that day has been the position taken by democratic papers and democratic politicians in the present financial situation. Scores of banks have gone under, manv with millions owing to depositors, and yet the nt wspapers have kept the worst from their readers and did everything possible to bring about normal conditions once more. In this they have been assisted by the democrats from the highest to the lowest. Instead of demanding their balances at the banks, as many republicans did in the panicy times of ’93, and thus aggravating a bad situation, they have gone quietly about their business and assisted in bringing back better conditions by drawing as little currency out of the banks as possible. It is to be hoped that our Republican friends will profit by this example of patriotism on the part of the democrats of the country, and will never again try to make a bad matter worse, as they v did in ’93, that they may profit politically over the downfall of the business of the country.

AS OTHERS THINK.

Everyone in Rensselaer Has a Right to His Own Opinion. While everyone has a right to his own*opinion, yet it is wise to always consider what others think and profit by their experience. Nothing makes life so miserable, or interfere so widely with the usefulness of the average American, as indigestion, and it is well for us to give fair,consideration to what others think about this remarkable afflction. B. F. Fendig is positive that in Mi-o-na stomach tablets he has an absolute cure for indigestion and the many disagreeable, symptoms that follow this disease, such as distress after eating, coated tongue, bad taste in mouth, dizziness, flatulence, nervousness and debility. Hig action in selling Mi-o-ma on a guarantee to refund the money unless its cures, shows plainly his belief in the value of this remedy. He takes all the risk, and there will be no charge whatever for Mi-o-na unless you are satisfied that it has relieved you of indigestion. Subscribe for the Democrat.
