LINCOLN , Oct. 7 , ( Special. ) Popocratlc campaign managers wilt find very little com fort in the statement ot the condition ot the Nebraska state banks , Issued today by Secretary Hall of the State Hanking board. Thla statement , compared with the last one , iwiued Juno 10 , hews an Increase in loans of $554,882.22 , and Increase In rcscrvre ot 1352,462 41 , an Increase In cash of $92,354 93 , an Increase In deposits of $1,932,744.80 nnd n decrease la bills payable and rediscounts of $28,031 51. "This statement show * a very good condi tion prevailing , " said Secretary Hall of the banking board "Tho banks generally com plain of an absence of opportunity to Invest their funds , and this absence ot opportunity manifests Itself In the increase In reserves. "With the further advance In the season they hope to see a better demand for money The interior bank , however , has a serious griev ance against the larger banks. It was the | practice In former years for the local bank to furnish the local feeder with what money lie needed through the feeding season , and when the surplus reserve of the local bank bcnmo exhausted , to rediscount paper with Its correspondent. The larger banks , in their anxiety for business , have , through commlselon houses nt the packing centers , become competitors of the local banks for inttlei paper to such an extent that but few of our Interior banks do any redlscountlng. "Iho Interior banks nro thus robbed ot legitimate opportunities of Investment. It is a shortsighted policy on the part qf the larger banks , as paper redlscountcd by the local bank and bearing Its guainntce car ries but llttlo risk to Its holder , while a great deal ot the paper Hooted under pres ent conditions must carry risks " The total number of banks now doing buelnmi In the state Is 403 , an Increase of five since the last statement.

Third Ward First precinct , C A Evans' building , Twenty-eighth nnd It streets , Second precinct , Mrs. Kilkcr's building , 3019 Q street Fourth Ward Location to be secured The lack of available space In the Fourth ward Is causing considerable uneasiness on the part of the city officials. There Is not a vacant store , house or room In the Fourth | ward , nnd up to thl time no irrangements ' have been made for a place to hold the meetings of the board ot registration. Councilman Ed Johnson hnpos to secure some place today , but where it will bo ho does not know. When this question ot regis tration came up some time ago Mr Johnson suggested that on account of the scarcity of buildings for rent In the Fourth ward the city erect a voting booth. This Idea seemed to meet with favor with members of the council until an estimate of the cost ot the building was made. A builder reported that n one-story structure 20x24 feet would cent $275. As this Is $200 more than the city Is willing to pay , It Is hardly possible that a voting booth will be built. Since the last general registration a year ago the population has Increased a great deal and many who are entitled to register and vote do not know the precinct boundary lines. For the Information of the newcomers - comers the precinct boundary llneo are here given.

( Continued from First Page. ) produce the proofs called for by the pen sion ofllce. TruntH ISot a Political flnewtlon. There should bo absolutely no party poli tics in the conslderat'on of the trust ques tion. The party or person who attempts to make political capital out of It Is neither wise- nor fair. The party that does it Is controlled by demagogues ; the person that does It Is a demagogue. Trusts arc peculiar to no particular country. They are found In republics ; they are. found in monarchies nnd empires. They are found In countries where free trade Is the leading prlnc pie underlying economic legislation and they are found In countries that believe In and act upon the policy of protection. There is not a member of the American congress In cither house. In my opinion , but who Is eager to do anything that can pos sibly bo done within the constitution to In vestigate , regulate control or even destroy any corporation which Is operated against the public good and in restraint of trade among our people. Any political party which In Its platform attempts to flx upon the republican party the birth or develop ment of trusts only demonstrates that It Is not candid with the voter and Is not worthy of confidence or even of respect. I challenge the records of congress to show a slnclo bill passing the house to carry out the declarations of the demo cratic national platform In nny shape or form. The democratic party certainly has no right to be attacking the republican party for want of action and their Plat form declarations of this jcar are like a burlesque In the presence of a great and trilng question. How much better for nil of us to be frank on a question of such vital Interest to the American people and unlto heartily nnd patrlotlcnl y to try to understand a trouble and find such addi tional remedies ns will be possible , and Just nnd for the good of all I think that there must be somewhere lodged the power In this country that can absolutely control the combination that : ontrols the price placed upon Its product. I will go further than tnat , if you please , that power should bo strong enough to de- Btioy. If the combination cannot bo regu lated In the Interest of the owners of the. capital nnd at the same time In the Interest of the public who buy from them. When the combined capital knows that there Is not only a regulator , but that regulator can k 11 If regulations should not b observed , there will be much more likelihood of good behavior on the part of the combined capital State * Have- the I'ovirr. This power Is already lodged In the state. The state legislature has all power ex cepting where limited by Its own constitu tion or the const'tutlon of the United States On the other hand , the federal legislature has no power , excepting that which Is expressl ) granted by the con stitution of the United States , or Is needed to carry out the ap&clal grants of the fed eral constitution. I believe that the con gress has gone already nearly UH far as it Is possible for It to go , except possibly to extend and enlarge Its work I think it would be much better to have federal legis lation so thut the treatment of these com binations might be uniform throughout the. nation than to have the peculiar views of each state crystallized Into law for the 1 treatment of comb'natlona But to reach this by federal legislation more power muat I bo given to congress than 1 am able to Iltid In the constitution of the United States This Is not at all Impossible. I be lieve that congress will ultimately act on the matter for the protection of the peo- pie and I ba'love ' that the several states would promptly ratify a constitutional amendment looking to the accomplishment of this important end Such an amend ment must be most carefully considered It la no easy task to frame ono and to legislate thereunder so as to reach the de sired results without too much centraliza tion of power In the general government and without encroaching upon the power of the states The aim should be not to destroy hon est industries by any means , but to regu late all Industries so that there may bo absolute equality among the people of this country excepting where such advantages come from superior education , superior knowledge nnd superior character. But what would bo the effect of free trade even vthen applied to protected com binations In this country ? Clu.irly the > re sult will be to have the foreign trusts and combinations of capital get the American market Instead of those of our own coun try. No , no. that Is not the remedy. I et us absolutely control by law , llrmly and wisely , the aggregated capital of our own country , but let our own capital , with our own labor , furnish what is needed by our own people. Under our modern civilization and throughout the world capital is helpless without labor. Labor is helpless without capital It is the combination of capital nnd labor -which gives the great potential force which we are considering. Whatever legislation is passed should keep both part ners in the combination steadily and llrmly in view. > o AiiKlo-Amcrlonn Alliance. There Is not a single foundation for the statement that there Is nn alliance between the United States nnd Unglaml. The man who makes that charge is either denselv Ignorant or willfully wicked. There Is ab solutely no proof of such nn alliance nnd ono has never been contemplated by the administration or any man In this country outside of an Insane asylum. This country needs no alliance with Hngland or with any other nation , nor have vvo any Interests that can bo advanced bv any such alliance. The United States hns hewn , can , nnd will , new out Its own great nnd mighty destiny without an alliance with am other nation upon earth. I hope and believe that the citizens of the United States who hall from Germany or from Ireland will In every way rebuke this attempt to play upon their prejudices and to discredit their In telligence. Why don't these gentlemen who com plain about the Philippines also give vent their indignation about our holding Porto Rico and the Isle of Pines nnd Guam ? Does it require a rebellion to point out a right or a duty ? Ah , gentlemen , who are pressing yourselves In the pathway of clv- ilbatlon , are you honest with us , with vourselves ? Do you know that Porto Rico , Guam , the home of pirates , and the Philippines , each and all of them will , In a few years , be like new worlds In the pres ence of the Influences of the United States and the civilization which Is ( low ing into each and all of them ? Nothing will prevent me. or nny Amer ican cltlren , In the hereafter , from listen ing with open ears and glad hcartf , to the appeal of the"o Islands for the highest form of liberty when their progress nnd advancement indicate that they nio rlpo for and cap ible of a larger liberty , and until such time Hhnll come , nnd that Is far In the future , the Philippine islands , being ours of right , must not bo surrendered to nny earthly power . . . . . Do the present and growing Interest ! * of this republic command us to run from these acquisitions whleh destiny lias forced upon us9 In my opinion the gtoat mar ket of the future for the United States will bo Asia Already the quickening trade with that region Is manifest.

The repub licans In the Fifth district opened today nt Marlon , with an address by Senator Wil liam 11. Allison. Mr. Allison was met at the depot by a large delegation headed by a band and escorted to the Daniels opera house , where ho spoke two hours on the issues of the day to an audience filling the building. Ho began his speech with a brief reference to state candidates from this part of the state. Applause was frequent. Senator Allison , in discussing the Philip pine question , said In part : It Is s.ild that the Philippine war Is being- conducted vtllhout the authority ot con gress. This IK not so Uvcry step In this progress lias been taken by the president with the approval of the American people as expressed by the votes of a Urge ma jority of their representatives and stuntorn In congress It Is not being conducted , as Is claimed In the democratic platform , "un authorized b > congress , " but It Is being1 conducted with the approval of congress , legislatively expressed , as I will show. Congress has conllded to It by the con- stltut'on ' the power to r.ilso and support armies , and these armies have repeatedly all along the pathway of our history been used to defend nnd protect the territory of the United States and to suppress rebel lion against the authority of thii United States. The president did not ralno the army wo have : ho does not bupport It. It was congress tnut i.ilsod this army : It was congress that appropriated the money to support It. When the war with Spain began wo h.id nn nriiij ot but 27,000 men. It became necossniy to enlarge It , nnd It was en larged to C3000 men , with authority to call a largo number of volunteers In addition , but It was provided In the law that v.htn peace was declared with Spain the regular army should fall back to ' 'i.UOO jnnn and all the volunteers should be discharged PPTC.-C having been eBUbll.shed by the exchange of ratlllcatlons on April 11 , 1831 , the army by force of this l.ivv was reduced again to 27- 000 men , which was confessedly too small an army to deal with the situation then existing In Cub.i Porto Itlio and the Philip pines , some Insisting that we should Imme- dlitPly enlarge our nrm > to 100000 men ; others Insisting that until all these posses sions should be paclllcd wo would not know how largo our permanent establishment should be , though as reduced HIP urrny would not bo much greater than necessary to man our formications at home CoiiKrenN Vleetx im ; 'rn 'iiey.
