For instance, from its very Inception the Democratic party opposed tlie establishment of the national banking system, and even bo late as ten years ago, Its national platform contained a plank advocating tha repeal of the tax on state bank issues, thus allowing a return of the old wildcat banknotes to the obvious disadvantage of the national bank issues. The system has now been in operation over a third of a century and in many respects it is the best system in the world, giving the country stable and absolutely secure currency. Despite the proof of Its benefits, which has been accumulating all these years the Democratic party with its usual stubbornness, acknowledging nothing and learning less, keeps Up its attacks. In the past two years, during which the law extending the usefulness of national banks has been in operation, thi3 Democratic asininity and folly have been made more evident. The new law allows the formation of banks with $25,000 capital, the previous limit being $50,000, and under it 919 new banking have been created, with a capital of $50,000,000 and a bond deposit as security for circulation of $13,000,000.

Most of these new banks appear to have been formed in Democratic communities. Texas leads all the other states with 119 of them, With a capital of about In the south in the aggregate 236 of these banks have been started, with a' capital of $12,000,000 Thus the Democratic sections of the Country have given the best proofs of Democratic folly and incapacity. The report that thousands of people are starving in southern Texas excites not only pity in our breasts but calls attention to the penalty which is attached to vastness. Texas has endured many calamities in the past few years, running the gamut of floods, tidal Waves, droughts and cyclones. Now comes a famine, and there Is little left of the good, bad or indifferent that Texas has not enjoyed or suffered from.

About everything, of every description, which belongs to the heavens above, the earth beneath or the waters under the earth is to be found in the vast domain of Texas. The state is so big, however, that visitations of great calamities leave little impress. The recovery is rapid, especially as the inhabitants are constantly finding new means of acquiring wealth. A year or two ago Galveston was destroyed, but already a new city has replaced the old, greater than ever, and the great disaster is now little taore than a memory: o- Just after President Roosevelt signed the law Which does- away With a bothersome surplus in the United States treasury, the British people are informed that the deficit of therr government is in round numbers The fcritish government announce? that It expects to restock the devastat- A STUBBORN COLD OR BRONCHITIS. yields more readily to Scott's Emulsion of cod-liver oil than to anything that you can take; and if persistently used a few days, will break tip the cold.

William N. Vaughn, under arTest charged with the murder of Mrs. Ella Vaughn and Mrs. Martha Calhoun at Hiram Sunday, was taken before Justice C. D.

Ingell Mon day afternoon, waived preliminary hearing, and was bound over to await the action of the grand jury in common pleas court witnout bond. He appeared somewhat nervous, and asked if waiving examination would complicate his plea of innocence. He was told that it would not and he promptly, made the waiver. He was then returned to jail. The prisoner appears to take Lct.e interest in affairs and continues indifferent to the strong webs of circumstantial evidence which are encircling him.

He has not yet asked to see an attorney. A local physician called at the jail this morning and engaged the prisoner in conversation. From examinations made he says the man's peculiarities border close upon insanity. This, in all probability, will be the defense. As far back as January Vaughn came to Ravenna and consulted an attorney regarding the dispute over the property interests which culminated in the terrible crime, if the theory of the prosecution is correct.

December 16, 1901, the prisoner's father, Colonel Vaughn, made a will giving a life estate in his property to his wife. To this the son (by a former wife) objected, and claims that in a conversation with his father the latter Claimed he regretted that he had made the will in such form, but was forced to do it by the wife. It was for the purp'ose of setting aside this will that William Vaughn came to see the Ravenna attorney in January, and when told that nothing could be done until the death of the father he gave vent to much rage, emphatically saying there was no justice in law. Later he endeavored to have the attorney who drew up the will and the witness to the same indictet by the grand jury, but without any success. Three weeks ago he prepared a written manifesto, wonderfully constructed, in which he warned all people to leave the premises of the father Ly April 1 or suffer the consequences by force or otherwise.

It was his contention that, as the eldest son, he was the legal heir to the property, being so decreed in the Bible. Persons who saw Vaughn on his visit to: Ravenna in, and who read the manifesto, classed him as being "off," and paid no further attention to the matter. His hobby seems to be to own land and obtain gold. He had $140 in five-dollar gold pieces on his person when arrested. PRAISES THE U.

S. Prince Henry Says Some Mighty Nice Things. Hamburg, April 15. The Hamburger correspondent says that Admiral Prince Henry of Prussia, in a speech delivered at a banquet of the East Asiatic association last evening, said: "This is a most welcome opportunity to look back for a few moments to the days I spent in the United States. I found in that country, not only what Is called on the other side of the Atlantic a dollar-hunting nation, but a nation striving with all its energy to secure pure and ideal possessions.

There prevails in the United States an intellectual and pleasant family life, and no beter life of the kind can be found In this country. Where this life does not exist every effort is being made to attain it. "I can only recollect with a grateful heart the days When I was a guest of the great nation, which endeavored to lighten every hour of my stay. Above all, however, my thanks are due to that person who ordered me to go to the United States, at another time to go to the far east But I do not think that my impressions of the land west of the Atlantic could overshadow the impressions I received of that land west of the Pacific, where I was able to enjoy German hospitality among German merchants for two years."

D. G. Good of Lake Fork preached a strong sermon using as his text, "The spirit of the Lord Is the candle of Prov. 20 27. He said In part: "A candle in Itself is a lifeless thing, but when touched with a live match, it sends forth its rays of light and makes theerful all within its reach.

'While the spirit of the Lord is the candle of yet also the spirit of man is the candle of man. "A man's personality having power over his fellow men, was beautifully illustrated in relating an Incident in the life of Henry Ward Beecher. When during the slavery agitation many of the citizens of New York city sympathized with the rebellion, the great Brooklyn minister announced that on a certain Sabbath a slave would be sold to the highest bidder from his pulpit The day arrived ana a beautiful Bpecl-men of the colored race was placed on the block, and Uie exciting scene of traffic In human beings was witnessed In a popular church in a northern city. The act fired the patriotism of the citizens, changing the scntimentof the city In opposition to the curse of slavery. "The spirit of the Lord is the candle of man," was presented by calling attention to the few faithful followers of Christ who came to the tomb with spires to embalm their burled Savior and after many centuries the candle Is burning on the eastern and western continent, nnd the Islands of the sea, wherever man Is found, and Will continue Its illuminating power until the kingdoms of the world- become the kingdoms of His Son.

The sermon was frequently emphasized by hrarty amens from the ministerial brethren. After the benediction the congrega FSRB THEY DESERVE IT. Fire Chief Talks About Increase In Wages. Says the Men Are Not Getting Enough Money Now. To the Editor: Few people know and realize whac utter slavery the life of a fireman is.

His Work may not be hard when there are no fires but he is on duty 24 hours a day and is denied not only all social advantages but even the privilege of associating with his own family except on his day off and that is only once in eight days. He can't leave the premises Without permission from the captain while on duty. Granting the time off he gets vacation and days off, his average hours on duty are about 20 hoiits'for each day in a year. They should have more time off, but at present we cannot grant that without crippling the efficiency of the department For a man to be tied to an engine house constantly for seven days except for a few minutes at meal time cannot be elevating. And as some of the men don't get to meals until at a late hour, they have a hard time seeing their children in case they go to school.

I am with the people for what is just and right, and I shall conduct the fire department judiciously and economically. I don't favor going to Columbus to get salaries increased, but just such talk as "If you don't like if get out;" "We can get lots of men to take your places;" will vote to cut your salaries instead to raise them," puts the firemen to thinking and they will grasp for protection elsewhere. The public should respect a fireman as well as expect a fireman to respect the public. The firemen are human too. True you can get men to take positions in the department if you were only paying 23 per month, but what kind of men? I know of some people that said: "You are getting too much money, but I would not take a job in the department for twice the amount you are getting.

It is too confining for me." All we ask of the public is to be fair. J. T. MERTZ, Chief Fire Department WILL CORRECT ERROR. Gale Street Citizens Will Get a Rebate.
