Mr. Comstock is one of the best-known republicans in the lie stands squarely for the Roosevelt policies, and, as he would be lined up with the Taft forces in the next convention, he will doubtless have the united support of Gentry county republicans for this honor, and should eafily win out as one of the delegates to the big Taft ratification meeting next year.

For a good many ears it been charged 1 men who were supposed to knew, that business of tin-United States was at the mercy the big eastern hanks and money brokers. Early in the present crisis, however, the western banks took a strong hand in the linaneitil game, and by refusing to allow large withdrawals of cash from the financial institutions of the west, they have probably demonstrated to the eastern bunch the fact that the hsuiness of the great west is' willing and thoroughly able to protect itself in any emergency.

Instead of draining the west of ready cash, as has been the custom in the past, the New York banks have been forced to bring gold from Europe. Heavy shipments of the yellow money have been coming across from London, and yesterday's papers reported that Wall street again had money for its customers; that the stock gamblers were getting their nerve back; that grain prices, which had taken a sharp tumble, were getting better, and everything indicated that business would soon be back on a busy, substantial basis. There have been a few foolish depositors who have blamed the bankers of the west for refusing to allow theirvaults to be drained currency, but most men of common business sense have realized the necessity for this action; have cheerfully accepted the temporary inconvenience which it worked on them, and are commending the men at the head of the banks and clearing houses for the 1, careful manner in which they have met and doubtless rode over this attempt of a bunch of eastern stock jobbers to throw the country into a panic. Meeting at Baptist Church. On next Sunday night Rev.T.M.S.

There will be special music, and the public is earnestly urged to attend these meetings. Services at o'clock each night during the coming week, and continuing as long as the interest justifies.
