Hitchcock and Henry W. Yatei
Conteit the Point.
,NE 0N PAOTC THE OTHER ON LAW
trrln Theater Filled t Aadleace
that Pan tloae Atteatloa
to the Remark of the
Speaker.
Whether there should be established a
system providing for the guaranty of
bank deposits under government control
was the subject of a Joint debate Thursday-night
at the Lyric with O. M. Hitch
cock speaking In the affirmative and Henry
W. Tatea, president of the Nebraska Na
tional bank. In the negative.
Mr. Hitchcock opened by telling of the
harshlpe through which this country had
j passed because of the financial flurry of a
year ago, but did not talk much on the sub
ject of deposit guaranty. Mr. Tates took
vp at once the topic under discussion and
showed how the guaranty system had been
made a law In Oklahoma under the direc
tion, Mr. Bryan and how It Is working
badly, just as other previous attempts at
such legislation had worked- The debate
waxed warm and the speaker, were roundly
applauded. Mr. Hitchcock sidestepped the
issue under discussion, while Mr. Tates ar-
gued why a guarantee fund should not be
; established. The theater was filled to Us
; capacity, the boxes being filled with women
and a considerable number of women being
seated In th auditorium. Dr. George U
Miller presided.
Hitchcock' Opening;.
"A year ago the country was In the
throes of th largest business activity of
any country on earth," said Mr. Hitch
cock, In opening the debate.
"Suddenly the people were shocked, for
the 7,000 national banks and numerous
state banks had refused to pay the de
positors on demand. I did not criticize
the bank then and I do not now. It
was the fear of their customer their
depositor which had it origin in the
city of New York. Fear Is the cause of
all these panics, and we can only make
the customer feel safe by putting up a
guaranty so th depositors would know
they could get their money. An effort
was made to stay this contagion of fear,
but the line at the banks became longer.
The banks resolved to Issue clearing house
certificate. This 1 a deathbed lnsuranco
when they meet and insure each others
deposit. We claim the banks should do
is other interest do in the day of
their prosperity prepare for adversity.
Insurance Is one of the first forms of
co-operation, both life and fire and other
Insurance. Why not insure against bank
panic T If the premium was mountain
high tha bank could afford to pay it. The
government has already undertaken a cer
tain form of insurance, and In many
countries the bank are a part of the gov
ernment The government makes a stock
holder liable tor twice the amount of his
holding. It also ha Inspector which the
bank have to pay for. But the govern
ment doe not go far enough.
"Thl city ha never been blighted by
bank disasters, but when such a blight
come th city might be set back for
twenty year. This lnsuranoe will not only
make good the damage, but will also act
a a preventive. It has been estimated
that th check to Jhls nation' activity ha
been at a cost of $1,000,000,000 by reason of
the recent pa&V w would not hv ha1
this loss had trie depositors been guaran
teed that their money wu secure. I
realise there are many good objections
which can b stated by the other side. I
figure that It will cost the banks one
twentieth of 1 per cent of the deposits to
provide an insurance. The bankers could
loan out all their money if this law Is
parsed and would not be compelled to keep
i restrve which is so much wasted money
which make no return to anyone."
Poaltloa f Mr. Yates.
"I expected to hear oraething from Mr.
Hitchcock on. th guarantee of bank de
posita,'; said Mr. Yates, "but he ha spoken
to you on the panic. What depository law
would have stopped the rottenness of tha
bank In New York last fall? They were
clotted before there was a run. He has
wardered off Into the field of insurance.
Insurance and guaranty are different In
surance companies do not charge the same
rate on tha strong a they do on the
weak; in fact, they won't Insure a weak
man at ait. The same applies to fire ir
turance.

Very soon, however,

it caused him great

he used o tear himself dreadfully in

we would roar him. The regimental

At on hospital they incased him in

"I Joined the Fire Department of
South Boston in 1890 and was lately
pensioned off because of a bad fall
while In service, which telescoped my
spine.
"A little over a year ago I was taken
tick while In the engine house,, and It
developed Into heart trouble and ma
laria. I went to a number of doctors
and two different hospitals and went
through a course of treatment from
each, but I did not receive much bene
fit from aly of them. The doctors
would not let me go in Bwlmming, nor
smoke, nor drink anything but water.
I stopped both tea and coffee. My
case was getting very serious when a
friend said to me: 'Why don't you get
a bottle of Duffy's Malt Whiskey? I
know a man who was given up for all
time and he took Duffy's Malt
Whiskey and today he Is bb well a man
as you can find.' So I commenced
taking Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey and
the result is that the doctors now say
that I am all right, and I never felt
better In my life. Of course, I am
very little good as far as heavy work is
concerned, owing to my injury, but I
am well, and that Is a good thing to be
able to say. I thank you for the rem
edy that put me on my feet again."
J. H. RILEY, 860 East Sixth Street,
South Boston, Mass.
Mr. Riley's experience is similar to
that of thousands of others who have
suffered untold agonies from different
diseases and were cured by Duffy's

try would like to aid the country of those
banks which fall and lose the money of
their depositors. If Mr. Bryan's scheme
I carried out we will have one of the
greatest banking trusts the world has ever
seen and aurely these democratic orators
do not believe In trusts. The monarchial
system of banking Is not the wish of the
American people.
"The relation between a banker and a
depositor is that of debtor and creditor.
The 'majority of the depositors decide
wisely, considering the capital of the bank
and the men who run It. It takes ability
and judgment to run a bank successfully.
"Character with only a small capital goes
farther than lurge capital and-small char
acter. Capital is not all power, for char
acter can at any time be coined into capi
tal, but capital cannot be coined Into char
acter. The loss since the war lias been but
4 cents to every $100 deposited. If tlie bank
guaranty is to take the place of capital
and character the loss cannot be estimated.
The present five national banks of Omaha,
the upholders of our financial life, are all
ooffshots of the three institutions started
In Omaha forty-five years ago. During
these forty-five years not one of thes.5
banks has lost a rent for a depositor.
That is the record of the Omaha bunks.
"Now comes Mr. Hitchcock and wants to
tax the Omaha banks which have not lout
a cent In forty-five years to take care of
banks In other sections where they are not
properly managed. The Omaha banks would
be asked to contribute 11,000,000 In ten years,
according to the figures of Mr. Bryan and
Mr. Hitchcock. If they had been taxed all
these years what return would Omaha huve
had? Not a cent, and all this money would
have been taken away from Omuha.
Experience la Other State.
Bank guaranty law were held a long
time ago In New York for two years, but
the law was repealed as soon as tho legis
lature met. It cost the state ,1,000,100.
Michigan' law met the same fate. Okla
homa's laws will go likewise. Mr. liiyun
had them push the law In without discus
sion as he wants tt to use In the natlonul
campaign. Half the men who passed this
law did not read It, and would not have
understood it if they had. There has been
a great Increase In the number of banks
and 1n the volume of deposits In the guar
anteed banks which goes to curry out my
arguments. Forty-seven new bunks huve
teen organised In Oklahoma since May
because of this law. Five had been
organized in one day. In a town of
1,100 people the officer of the law
had to turn down a fourth bank which
wanted to organize. Of the forty-seven
new banks forty-two have only 10,000 each
of capital the minimum under the law.
They say "what do we care for capital the
Stat Is in partnership with us?' One bank
with $100,000 under the national system has
reorganized with $10,000 capital under the
state system. The loans . have increase,
over the Increase in deposits over $1,500,000
If fraud is contemplated It Is made vei.
easy under the guaranty. In Oklahoma one
case Is reported where one man who was
Just releasd from the penitentiary as a
pubMo defaulter Is starting a bank. A
saloonkeeper driven out of business by pro
hibition started a bank, and has deposits of
$30,000. Another Went through bankruptcy
and then organised a bank."
Coaclaaloa ( Debaters,
"The effort Is not only to guarantee the
deposits but to regulate the banks," said
Mr. Hitchcock.
In Canada there prevails a system of
bank guaranties on all fours with the pro.
posed law, except that it applies to notes
as well as deposits. In England they are
guaranteed, practically, because there they
have but few banks with many' branches,
so they practically gusrantea each others'
deposits; snd the same Is true in France.
The banks should be forced to go Into this
die same as rsilroads were compelled to
put on safety appliances. It Is the duty of
the state to see that a bank is made safe."
"Mr. Hitchcock tries to get away from
the Oklahoma law," replied Mr. Tates. "It
Is as good and perfect as a national law
of the kind could be. It was framed up
by Mr. Bryan after his own ideas. Governor
Haskell is one of the banking board. The
stste of Oklahoma assure no guaranty

anteed by the guarantee fund. The Okla
homa banking law is the worst piece of
political machinery ever contrived.
"Mr. Hitchcock does not tell us how the
guarantee law would have headed off the
trouble of last year. I don't think Mr.
Hitchcock thinks this money should be
kept in cash. Do you, Mr. Hitchcock?
"Yes. some of it," replied Mr. Hitchcock.
"I don't believe you know anything about
it," said Mr. Yates with a smile. . u .
"If the fund were all kept in cash it
never could be sufficient to meet the de
mands made Upon it," concluded Mr. Yates.
"In Oklahoma the fund Is $120,000 and how
could It even furnish funds for one large
bank. Last fall the deposits of the banks
which cloned in New York aggregated $130,
C00.0CO. Where would you have gotten the
money to pay these depositors? There can
be no fund provided which will prevent
bank runs. We are all striving to prevent
this. The banks have not been derelict.
The bank guarantee plan is unsafe, unfair,
unequitable and there Is no Justification
for it."
COLORED VOTERS OUT IN FORCE
Republican Candidates Are Greeted
with Enthusiasm at Foraker
Club Meetlnar.
Wild cheering for A. W. Jefferis and In
tense enthusiasm for the whole republican
ticket characterized the rally held at Idle
wild hall last evening under the auspices of
the Foraker Republican club. No more en
thusiastic meeting has been held locally in
the present campaign and as convincing a
demonstration as could possibly be was
made of the fact that the entire colored
vote of Omaha will be cast for the repub
lican ticket. Member after member of tho
club arose and pledged himself not only to
vote for the republican ticket, but to make
It a point of personal honor that every man
of his race whom he knew should do like
wise. President G. W. Hiller of the club pre
sided and ail the other officers of the club
were present, these Including George Dick
inson, Henry l'lummer, W. J. Johnson and
M. F. Singleton. Addresses were made by
a number of candidates on the republican
ticket for congressional, legislative or
county office, speaking in the following
order: F. C. Best. G. H. Brewer, Dr. H.
A. Foster, F. 8. Tucker, James Walsh, T.
A. Hollister and A. W. Jefferis. Besides
these, three members of the club, T. B.
Watklns, Fred Bainett and M. F. Singleton
were heard and President Fred Smith of
the Taft Republican club (colored). Judge
Macomber and Dr. W.8. Gibbs. also mak
ing brief remarks.
Of the candidates Jefferis and T. A. Hol
lister roused the greatest enthusiasm, the
former being greeted with cheers at the be
ginning and conclusion of his address and
Delng frequently Interrupted by prolonged
eiiods of applause.
Mr. Jetferls said in part:
"it was a proud moment in rnv life that
when trouble occurred some years ago in
Daes county, when Sergeant Reed of
the Tenth cavalry was arrested on a charge
of murder, when feeling ran high in the
neighborhood, whir, a man was retained to
assist the county attorney who boasted that
it had been his ambition for years to help
hang a 'plgger,' as he called lilm. that then
Fred Burnett of this city advised the friends
$of the man who faced a prejudiced public
sentiment during his trial, to send for me.

three days of battling over a Jury picked

and after several daya more of hearing

"Arguments over, they took the case
and for two days and two nights ten of
the twelve voted steadily to acquit, the
other two as steadily to convict. Finally
they brought In a verdict for manslaugh

with an appeal to his auditors to register

did similarly.
He had been preceded by the republican
candidate for county attorney, Mr. Hol

himself to an Impartial administration of
the office, "giving every man his Just

succeeding speaker referred to it in terms
of the highest praise.
WOMEN SUFFRAGISTS MEET
American Association Does Not Take
Kindly to SnKseatlon of British
Worker.
BUFFALO. Oct. 15. The fortieth annual
convention of the American Woman's Suf
frage association was called to order this
afternoon by the president, Rev. Anna
Howard Shaw, who called attention to the
progress made by the workers for woman
suffrage and predicted even more rapid ad
vancement of the cause in the future.
Mayor J. N. Adam extended a hearty
greeting to the delegates at the Young
Men's Christian association auditorium to
night. The letter Of Mrs. Annie Cobden
Sanderson, the English suffragist organizer,
advising American suffragists to "intro
duce into your organization more of the
fire of revolt, more denunciation and more
insistent demand that the woman ntfcy
have the power and the liberty to work for
the world's moral regeneration," was given
out.
"American suffragists do not countenance
the methods In vogue In England." This
opinion, voiced by one of the prominent
delegates reflects the general feeling among
the suffragists here.
Miss Emily Howland of Sherwood, N. Y.,
one of the pioneers In the suffrage cause,
spoke on the "Spirit of 1818," calling atten
tion to the Inimitable declaration made at
the first woman's rights convention In the
world, held at Seneca Falls, N. Y., in 1848.
Mies Howland read from the autobiography
of Elizabeth Cady Stanton that "thl was
the first organized protest against the In
justice which had brooded for ages over
the character and destiny of one-half the
I ace."
Mrs. Rachel Foster Avery of Swartmor
gave a summary of the International Suf

working for the ballot all over Europe,

women are casting aside their veils and
