Guarantee of Deposits
Every effort is being made to
blind voters and catch votes in the
excitement of tbe campaign. To
illustrate, take guarantee of de
posits. 1 heard a republican the
other day say he was inclined to
vote for Bryan as he liked Bryan's
view of guarantee of deposits.
Think of it. Think of th.jdanger
ous influence of these catchy feat
ures thrown into platforms to
catch votes. Thin man would for
get all that his party has stood Tor
aiul done. He would forget
Roosevelt and his great work. He
would forget tin' prosperity of the
last eight years. He would forget
the good prices he has received
for his products and the increase
in the value of his properties. He
would even change administra
tions, and why? Because for the
moment he secs blit this one ques
tion that Bryan dangles before Ins
eyes. It is positively foolish.
Men must think and not be thus
easily led away
This man should stop and see
that there are a dozen questions
on which he could agree with Taft
or Bryan; and then lie will realize
how foolish it would tie to go to
either candidate because of one
question and that a new one just
sprung. What candidate and
what party is best for the country
is tin1 important thing. Every in
telligent voter will decide his vote
on that basis and not on any one
question or any one plank of any
body,s platform.
Guarantee of deposits is not an
issue and is being used merely to
draw unthinking votes. I am per
sonally in favor of some system
guaranteeing deposits and gave
an address to that effect before
the Nebraska Bankers Association
at Omaha, November 22, ’00. A
copy of the pamphlet will he mail
ed you on request. T speak there
fore from the standpoint of an
advocate of guarantee of deposits;
lint 1 am nut in favor of Bryan ’a
plan and you would not be if you
understood it. Bryan's plan
would link the brinks of Texas,
Florida and Wall Street with the
banks of Nebraska, If my bank
| was tied up witn the banks of dis
tant states and territories you
would not risk your deposits in
my bank. If the success and
safety of my bank depends on the
management of banks in remote
regions I would for my own safely
f»o out of the banking business
and so would every other careful
l banker in Nebraska. This impor
tant question has no place in a
political cam pail'll. The problem
of guarantee of dep mils will be
worked out in due tune in a care
ful manner and without politics
mixed up in it.
THE FALSE ISSUE
The success of any party of any
candidate is not the real issue in
; this cotnpaign and every voter
|should think it over and realize
: this fact.
THE TRUE ISSUE
The true issues in this cam
paign are, first that the prosperity
of the past eight years be continu
ed; second, that the great reform
work for better government he
; ratified and effectively continued.
These are of just as much im*
! portance to democrats, populists
and others as to republicans. Con
tinuation of this prosperity can
I he expected, and continuation of
the vigorous efforts for pure gov
ernment will be insured by con
tinuation of the present adminis
trations. Are there riot many
reasons, of self-interest and public
interests, why voters of all parties
should support Sheldon and carry
Nebraska for Taft?

KnnBRs City Stuck yards,Oct. jb
110$. There was a drop of twen
ty thousand head of cattle in re
ceipts last week, as compared
with recent weeks, but killing
stuff declined 10 to 20 cents, ex
cept the best corn feed steers.
Fleshy feeders fourid a ready
sale, and held steady, but medi
um to common stock steers de
clined 10 to 25 cents. The run
j today is 8000 head, less than half
■,i normal supply for Monday at
this season, receipts held down
because of storms and washouts
through Kansas and Oklahoma.
The market here is 10 to 15 high
er all around. The good market
today serves to indicate what
may be expected when the heavy I
runs of range cattle stop, and ,
receipts drop down, and offer
some encouragement to feeders of |
high [triced corn. Prime steers
being $7.00 to $7.35 but an ex
tremely small number of this
class are included. Medium of
common fed steers bring $4.50 to
$(>.00, grass steers, which buyers
claim are not killing out as good
as a few weeks ago, $3.40 to
$4.SO; grass cows $2.75 to $3.00;
bulls $2.00 to $3.50; calves $3.25
to $(> 50.
Hog prices closed last week
nearly steady with the close of
the previous week, the market
having taken a big turn upward
about the middle of the week, a
good part of which advance was
lost Friday and Saturday. Run
is light today 7000 head and the
market is 10 to 15 higher, top
$5.05; bulk $5.25 to $5.85; pigs
$3.75 to $5.00.
Sheep and lambs declined 15
to 25 cents last week, but the
situation is entirely changed to
day, prices a quarter higher, too
lambs $5-75; yearlings $4.50.
weathers $4.25; ewes $4.10. The
run is $8,000 here today.
