A NECESSITY.
That Road to the MontOpolis Bridge Should
be Macadamzed

be MacadamiZed.
The heavy travel on the extension
of east Sixth street demands the
matchmaking of the eGtire distance
from the city limits to the Montopolis
bridge.
The citizens interested in the build
ing of this road have raised sufficient
money t. pay their share of the costs
of construction and an early compile
ton of this work is assured.
When completed it will be credit
TO the county and great saving to
our farmer. Without a first class
ma3adamized road from the center of
the city to the Montopolis bridge the
latter never can be utilized to its full
extent.

OUR TWO NEW STARS.
rom the Nashville American,


When the president of the United
States attached his signature to the
bill admitting Wyoming into the sis.
terhood of American States, he added
another disgrace and tainted with
another insult the national flag. Only
one week lefore Idaho was admitted
and similar crime had been COM
mitted. There is no duty in anything
else than admitting qualified terri
tories into Statehood, but there is
nothing short of a crime in bringing
in half grown boroughs when they are
not eligible in any of the par
ticulars which have heretofore
guided our lawmakers in making
such admissions. Both Idaho and
Wyoming have together not more
than sufficient population to elect a
single congressman, and yet in order
to strengthen the Republican party,
they have been dragged into the
Union in order to add four senators
and two members of congress and six
votes to the Republican side of the
electoral college. In evidence OF this
fact, the same Republican congress re-
fused absolutely to consider the claims
of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah,
when all three have larger populations
respectively than Idaho and Wyo-
ming, and when all three are knock
ing loudly for admission.
These admissions of such territor-
les are but few of the long list of
crimes which the party in power has
committed and for which the Ameri-
can people propose to hold it respon-
sible.

Crise dnanciere.

La terrible crise fnanciAre qui
s6vit dams ce moment aux Etats-
Unis est LON d'avoir 6t6 sans pre-
cedent. Quatre commissions none
taires agiterent d6ja le pays du
dollar, la premiere IN 1919, la
deuxi6me en- 1887. la troisieme en-
1857 ct la derniere en- 1873.
On pourrait d la rigueur en- ajou
ter une cinquieme: celle connue
sous lie nom de "Vendred1 noir' de
1869. Les pe1tes subies q cette
epoque, soat en- effet aussi consid6-
rabies, proportions gard6es, quaint q
So dur6e, que dams les quatre au-
tres.
La panique de 1919 fut due q la
reaction qui go produisit apres Ia
guerre de 1912. Toutes les manu-
features fermerent leurs portes ct
pendant trois ans, une demoralisa
ton commercials profonde pr6va-
Tut dams tous les Etats- Unis.
Celle de 1887 a Gu pour %raisons
principales:
1 LIE refus du Congress, sous
administration jackson, de modi-
fer la charte des Banques des
Etats Unis, qui favorlsait alors Ia
fondation de banques au capital
imaginaire, 6mettant DIES billets de
banque, ct couvrant lie march6 de
centajnes de millions de papier-
monnaie, n'ayant qu'une valeur
6ctive; la 6Avre de speculation qui
s'ensuivit, le rappel par le gouver-
nement des monnaies dor Ut d'ar-
gent quill await depos6es dams les
banques d'Etat ct la distribution
du surplus du tr6sor federal, entire
les Etats.
Ce fut au moment du hppel de
ces fonds que cette catastrophe f.
nanciere SO produisit, quelque
temps apres inauguration du pre-.
sident Martin Van Buren,.
LIE 10 Mai 1887 les banques de
Newly York suspendirent leurs pale.
nents ct Get exemple fut vite suivi
par les banques des autres v1lles.
Les peBrtes subies par New. York
seul. depassaient 1000 millions de
dollars.
