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. Following Is

Every one who expects to vote at the fall
election must register on either Thursday ,
October 19 , Friday , October 2" , or on Sat
urday , November 4. Registration booths will
bo open In every precinct In the city from
8 a. m. to 9 p. m. on the days mentioned ,
The following places have been selected for
registration
First Ward First precinct , C. E. Scarr's
drugstore , Twenty-fourth nnd M streets ,
Second precinct , Howard Meyers' drug store ,
Twenty-fourth and J streets , Third precinct , [
Rowley building , Twenty-fourth street , be-1

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.

the west by the Union Pacific tracks , on the
south by N street , on the north by L street

Missouri river. Second precinct is bounded
on the west by the Union Pacific tracks , on

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.
I'lilllpplncH a Hleh rielil.
Undoubtedly the Philippine Islands nro a
rich Held for trade nnd are full of promise
for the future under the protection of a
government which will protect llfo and the
opportunity for honest effort
Under the American policy ot protection

CEDAR RAPIDS , . . „ , Oct. 7. The repub

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

The bill then went to the house of repre-
Keiitnllves and , although the debate was
bi'ef ' , the purpose and effect of the bill
were clearly pointed out by many demo
crats In the debate. The bill passed the
lotiHH by a vote of 203 to 32. these in the
negatlvo being too few In number to even
