The tax Is proportioned only to the loss sustained after liquidation and payment, so that the funds would b utterly Inade quate to meet the demand for ready money which would prevent a panic. The total deposits of the national banks are $5,000. 000,000. One-half of one per cent upon that. nd this Is a much larger percentage than proposed, would make a fund of l.Ono.Ono. The amount of money that was needed to stay the late panic In New York banks alone was many times thla sum. In other words, the cash needed to atay a panic It Is Impossible to accummulate In any other way except by such emergency measure as Is provided In the Aldrich-Vreeland bill In which bifciks are given an opportunity upon proper security to issue J500.000.000 to meet an emergency, and are prevented from over-issuing by the Imposition of a heavy tax of five per rent. The proposed guaranty plan also Invites the co-operation of state banks, and proposes that they shall have- an opportunity to come Into the same guaranty. The practical objections and difficulties do not frighten Mr. Bryan districts of the country where savings bnki ate ne-de.l, but aie unprofitable, and wherf the many proposed money order offk-ei turned to the savin banks, will Indue thrift, and the gathering of the capital for t;ie 4mpf-vrmrnt of the countrj.

The people of Omaha have been treated to aome splendid fireworks displays In their time. The Hoard of Governors realise this, and has left nothing to hinder one of the grandest fireworks OlHplays ever given In the west.' Pain 'In all his glory will be eclipsed, the only difference being that there will be no spectacular effects, all the money having- been spent In powder. Skilled workmen have been working for some weeks on giant set piece.' which will astound the nstives. The Board 'of Gov ernors were fniprcased by the, splendid -fireworks display given at the state fair at Lincoln, when thousands of people went to the grounds nightly to see Jhe rockets mount skyward and to hear the bomb ex plode, throwing their varied color against the dark background of night. Taft and Bryan will both be ahowh In fire and other set pieces will be. shown of the new and novel sort. Taft come to Omaha at an opportune time for the city will be filled with peo ple from all parts . of the aurrbunding country when he speaks In Omaha and Bouth Omaha Thursday night. The audi torium has been engaged for the Omaha speech and It now seems certain that It capacity will be taxed as It has never been before.

After the rest of Saturday and Sunday the barkers and animals and the freaks will be ready for the rush of the coming week. Show life Is a strenuous one at best, especially so when the show I placed on the lot of a big carnival like the Ak-Sar-Ben fall festivities. When the crowds begin to come It is one continuous grind from morning till midnight with but a moment to grab a aandw-lch for lunch. Even th,e big elephant tires of going through his stunt a dosen time a day. The principal stunt the elephant dislikes Is one which the general publlo docs not see. The big "bull" delights In covering himself with hay and dust. Before entering the arena foe each performance he Is com pelled to go Into the menagerie tent, lie down and have the dust awept off his hack. Hr hates to He down and also hates to have the dust swept off.

Visitors In Omaha during the last week of the Ak-Sar-Ben festivities need have no I fear that they will be compelled to walk the atreeta at night for the want of a place to sleep, or that they will be in danger of dying of starvation.' Foreseeing that the crowds the last week of the carnival will be larger than In previous years, the peo ple of Omaha will open their homes to the stranger within her gates and private ac- j commoaauona win De accorded every seeker. In other year the Commercial club has looked after the housing of those visitors who have failed to aecure hotel accommo dations, but this year the Young Men' Christian association officials have taken the matter In charge and have opened an Information bureau in their building on Seventeenth and Harney street, where all visitors will be cared for. Secretary Babcock. who will be In charge of the bureau, and George F. West, mem ber of the general committee. Join In ask ing those who have room for rent to no tify Mr. Babcock of the Young Men Christian association building at one to that effect. Whan this Information I given th secretary should be advised not only as to h exact location of the house In which the room are located, but also Uhat car to take and whether there la a 'phone In the house. Parties having room for rent should also specify how many can be accommodated and whether men or women art preferred; also how many meals can be served.

It Is permlSHlble under the na tional banking act for banks to organize with a capital of $25,0W. The security which banks offer the depositors-depends upon the amount of capital, the amount of surplus and public confidence In the offi cers of the Institution. I'nder the proposed system the depositors In a bank with a capital of $.,5.000 and no surplus, and with officers of little experience and Indifferent reputations can offer the public exactly the same security for the payment of de posits as a bank with a capital of J 500. 000, a surplus of U50.000 and with officer known to be honest and able. Depositors there fore Insofar as security of deposits Is con cerned are as likely to make their deposit In th $25,000 bank as In the bank with the capital of $600,000. Limitation of luterat. "It is proposed to Introduce Into the law a limitation a to the amount of Interest which under the system can be offered and paid on deposits. This It Is said will prevent banks from offering excessive rates of Interest to obtain deposits. A limitation of thl ort I difficult to fix because con dition vary so much In different parts of the country. That which would be high Interest In one part of the country would be low In another, and that which would be high Interest at one season and under leuain conditions would be low at anothel time. ' Hence whatever limitation I Im posed except when the normal Interest 1 highest, there must always be an oppor- tunny ior i none inviting aeposils to pay a nigner rate than that which conserva tive bankers would pay. "If the losses were limited to one-twenty-alxth of 1 per cent the amount of the tax on the deposit of course would be small, and each bank could readily pay It, al though the principal would be an entire departure from equity; but the effect of a guaranty system on th character of bank ing would be such that the losses arising from recklessness would greatly Increase, and the tax must Increase to meet the lotmes on every bank In propbrtlon. In stead of loss equal to one-twenty-sixth of 1 per cent annually It would rapidly In crease In every financial stringency. Two objections are made to the conclusion that an enforced guaranty system would lead to reckleaeness and disaster in banking. One Is that the government examination would prevent, and the other la that it is an In sult to the banking community to assume that the national bankera of this country, In view of their present high character, would yield to the temptation to reckless ness presented by the system. I answer to the first objection that the government ex aminations do not now prevent bank from falling; that It Is difficult for a bank ex aminer to discover the unwlsu recklessness ana speculative loans, and then the vll untary feature of the Kansas proposal that make the radical difference between It and that of the democratic platform. It I en tlrely conceivable that bank In the tame neighborhood and within the observation of each other may profitably and safely accept and guaranty the security of all for the benefit of each, especially when they can select their partners. "One of the great merits claimed for the enforced guaranty of deposits Is that It will prevent panics. It Is sufficient to say that the plan proposed cannot prevent panics. A panic is not y stayed by the promise' that money will ultimately be forthcoming. It can only be stayed by the production of the money Itself. When a financial stringency I on, It la the caBh the man needs, and to say that he will get It next week certainly doe not assist him. No ono who ha heard that hla bank I going to fall will delay In Immediately ap plying for his money becaniae he I assured that at some time In the future he will get It. Therefore the system could not slay the panic unless the fund were large enough to enable the banks to pay ah their depositors at tho time of the run. whereas the national banks are prevented from o doing. The difference la the busi ness, and the tlelng up of assets between the system I radical. It would be Im possible to bring In the state bank without making the supervision of them as strict as on the national banks, and If that super vision Is to be strict. It must be under na tional auspices, and therefore In effect, they must become national banks. Thla will entirely destroy the system of state banks, and will Introduce Into the national banking sjsterb trust companies and sav ing bank. aeat ton of Kqalty. "Mr. Bryan ay that as the government has security why should not the individual depositor have aecurlty. The government usually has a large fund. The law requires that It exact security for It deposits. It Is so large a fund that the banks can af ford to give food security to obtain It. It Is to be observed however, that the security given to the government Is the security of the hanks which get the deposits and not the security of every other bs.nk In the com munity. If; as between the banker and his depositor, the deposit I of sufficient bene fit to make It an object to the bank to give security that is one thing; but to require every other bank to give aecurity to that depositor Is an entirely different thing. I understand tliat In Oklahoma under this very law which Is proposed to make na tional, bond are exacted by the state and county from the secured banks to protect the public deposits. "I think I have shown that the tendency of the system proposed would bo to destroy the high character of the present bank ing. This Is not, however, to be taken a an argument that the security of depoetta Is not a good thing, and Is not to be brought bout as fully and perfectly a possible. It I only to how that the method here suggested Is a plausible but sophistical method that will not accomplish the pur-i pose, but will ultimately Increase the losses from bank failures. Oklahoma Daak Deposit. "The case of Oklahoma h been cited an Instance to Justify the democratic platform. The system ha been In opera tion only since March of thla year. No panic or other financial disturbance has teated it efficiency. The statement Is made that the public ha so much con fidence In the banks that the deposits In th unsecured bank are running down and the deposits In the secured bnk are run ning up. II my correspondent in Okla homa can be credited, thl Increase of de posits waa due to the fact that $3,000,000 of Itu state money received from tha govern ment for public school land wa removed from the national banks and put in . the stste banks operating under the guaranty which would explain nearly all th .Increase In deposits. "The postal savings bank system ha a guaranty by the government under cir cumstances which Justify It, because It re ceives and husband the deposits. Thl guaranty will, of course, attract deposit, but the Interest fund Is so low that the usual customers of savings bank will not be drawn away, as experience In all other countries shows. The democratic platform proposes, if the guaranty system cannot be put Into force, to then adopt the postal wivlngs bank, a If the guaranty iystem supplied the means met by the postal aav lngs banka. This 1 entirely untrue. No enforced guaranty system will supply what the postal saving bank will upply. It merely attempt to make ecure the pres ent deposits. It cn, of course, have no effect to extend the bank Into th remote hung with bunting and flags and crowded with mc'mbera of local marching clubs from various cities Ire the state. A reception to the vice presidential can didate was held and after luncheon h was escorted to a stand overlooking the line ot march to review a parade of the clubs.
