DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR DE-
FEATED FOR RE-ELECTION.
State Legislature Is Republican
ami United States Senator
W ill Re Elected.
ARKuclated Press. Dispatch]
Portland’, Maine, Sept. 10.—•
Maine’s latest election figures, stilt
incomplete but absolutely conclusive,
give the republicans the governor-
ship, three out of four congressmen
and republican majorities in both
the house and senate.
On governor the republican vote
is 70,073, democratic 66,515.
The election of a republican sen-
ator Is certain.
The progressives and republicans
fused in the state election.
Thus Maine turns back to the re-
publican party, William T. Haines of
Waterville being elected governor
over Gov. Frederick W. Plaisted,
his democratic opponent, who
sought'a second term, while the
republicans regained one of the
two congressional distnicts, lost to
the democrats two years ago.
The congressmen elected are:
First district, Asher C. Rinds,
republican.
Second district, D. J. McGilllcuddy,
democrat.
Third district, Forrest Goodwin,
republican.
Fourth district, Frank E, Guern*
sey, republican.
Hinds, McGilllcuddy and Guern-
sey were re-elected.
Returns for the legislature show
eight republican and three demo-
cratic. senators and forty-three re-
publican and thirty-six democratic
representatives elected out of a
total membership in the .senate of
thirty-one and in the house of 151.
The struggle between the demo-
crats and republicans for control of
the executive and legislative depart-
ments of the state government, the
lour congressional districts and
county officers, was one of the clos-
est in many years.

Detroit, Sept. 10.— Now is the
time "or critics of the proposed
National Reserve association, rec-
ommended by the National Mone-
tary commission, to come forward
and point out what they believe to
he defects in the plan, in the opin-
ion of Robert W. Bonynge, a mem-
ber of the commission, who ad-
dressed the American Bankers' as-
sociation here today. Mr. Bon-
ynge’s address was on “Banking
und Currency Reform.’’ He spoke
in part as follows:
“Our banking and currency sys-
tem is universally recognized as
thoroughly unsound. AH the politi-
cal parties have declared in their
platforms of this year in favor of
its reformation, but no specific
remedial legislation has been pro-
posed by any. it is perhaps bet-
ter that they should not have done
so. The problem is essentially an
economic and business question.
“The defects in the existing sys-
tem (hat, must be remedied no mat-
ter which party is charged with the
responsibility of framing the legis-
lation are: our unscientific treat-
ment of bank reserves, the rigidity
of our entire credit system and the
lack of cooperation between our in-
dependent banks.
Our present reserve system re-
stricts the loaning and power of
hanks at times when reserves
should be freely used and credit
liberally extended to solvent busi-
ness men and thereby intensifies, if
it does not actually produce panics.
Our scattered reserves are wholly
ineffective for use in emergencies.
Our bank notes do not fluctuate in
response to business needs. Even
the commercial paper held by the
banks are not a truly liquid asset
with us. Each separate bank in
times of stress is concerned only in
strengthening Its reserves. The
sole method available for tiiat pur-
pose is the calling of loans. The
portion of reserves held in vaults
of our thousands of independent
banks is for all practical purposes
a dead asset. Indeed, rigidity
stamps itsplf upon our entire credit
organization.
“We have only local hanks. They
furnish banking facilities to their
own communities. They are in-
dispensable. ...But It must be ob-
vious that these strictly local in-
stitutions cannot look after nor pro-
vide for the general credit condi-
tions of the country at large.
“As it was found necessary to or-
ganize the federal government to
guard our national interests and to
legislate on those subjects affect-
ing us as a nation, so we must have
purposes. The independence of the
units must be absolutely preserved.
The powers glveD to the federation
of the banks must be strictly limit-
ed to those that are national in
character. The form of organiza-
tion must be such as to insure its
operation in the interests of and as
a support to all legitimate business
and must he wholly free from sec-
tional, political or selfish financial
control.
When thus organized it must be
empowered to act as custodian of
the reserves of the banks, to redis-
count their short, time commercial
paper, to provide a snfe and sound
bank note currency that will auto-
matically adjust itself to the con-
stant changes In business require-
ments, to act as the government’s
fiscal agent, and to represent us In
all national and international fi-
nancial affairs.
‘‘Tlie experience of the world
proves that a currency issued by a
government or by a government
owned by institution always lacks
the essential element of elasticity.
Its amount Is determined by the
government s needs and fixed by
statutory provisions which cannot
be speedily altered to meet chang-
ing conditions The government
issues money, and may and should
In the Interest of the public regu-
late the agency or agencies which
may, in accordance with certain
general principles that it establish-
es, issue credit redeemable in law
ful money. It is for these reasons
that the issuance of hank note cur-
rency should be entrusted to the
federation of hanks, under regula-
tions to be prescribed by statute
and strict government supervision
through its own officers.
"Witii a co-operative federation
of our hanks established, having
the necessary- powers to protect our
general credit conditions, banking
panics and money stringencies
would no longer plague us. Each
independent bank would know that
it could safely extend at some price
such assistance as might be requir-
ed to any solvent business man,
because, it would know that if the
occasion arose, it could rediscount
the commercial paper of Its solvent
customer at a branch of the federa-
tion of banks. Thus the benefits
of such an organization would
reach every man. no matter In what
business or calling he might bo
engaged.
“We would have a safe custodian
for the reserves of the banks. They
could be mobilized and be put to
effective use whenever needed. The
amount, of currency would be abso-
lutely measured and determined by
business requirements. The banks
wotrld through co-operation be en-
abled to utilize our enormdffl)

poses hag been before the country
for nearly a year. It is contained
in the unanimous report made to
congress by the National Monetary
Commission recommending that es-
tablishment of the National Re-
serve association.
“Some objections have been heard
to the plan of the proposed organ-
ization and the machinery provided
for. its operation. If there are de-
fects in the plan, they should be
specifically pointed out and sugges-
tions offered for their correction.
Mere denunciation of proposed
measures without offering some
substitute is not at all helpful. It
is believed that the more the’ plan
of the Monetary Commission is
studied and analyzed, the more it
wilt grow 1ti favor. Hut whether
it does or not, the problem of mon-
etary reform remains with us. A
solution of it must he fouud. Shall
we say that we are unequal to the
task? Shall it he said that this pow-
erful nation alone of all nations of
the earth is unable to provide a
hanking system suitable to its
needs?
“We will be unworthy of our in-
heritance If we fall in this effort.
The difficulties to be overcome are
insignificant compared with those
that confronted the fathers in lay-
ing the toundation of our national
union. Surely the time cannot be
far distant when the intelligence
and patriotism of the American
people will solve this problem. It
is to that intelligence and patriot-
ism that we must apepal and upon
which we can rely with confidence.
