Financial Question.

The man Is no longer chasing the
Job; the Job il chasing the man. There
are now two jobs to every man."
That is what Senator Thomas III. Car
ter said at the Margaret theater last
night. II any workingman in Anacon-
la who Is not at present employed
should be ignorant Of this fact. and does
not know that two jobs are chasing
him around town. he would do well to
apply to Senator Carter for further in
formation.
Senator Carter spoke last evening to
a large audience at the Margaret thea
ter. He was listened to with attention.
He was given a most respectful hearing.
and IL his remarks met with little or
no sympathy in his audience. IL should
be remembered hat he was telling
things to people whose first interests are
in no wise In line with the theories OF
Senator Carter. The meeting was call
ed to order by Levi Davis On the stage
besides senator Carter were J. c. Eng
lish. d. A. Collins. and A. Short.
Senator Carter talked prosperity for
a long time. and 1t was during the pros
perity portion OF his talk that he made
the statement which appears at the be-
ginning Of this article. When he made
that statement, however. there were
plain indication in the audience that the
senator was treading On dangerous
grounds. n he quit. He charged the
democratic party with dishonesty and
incompetency M laid at that party's
doors all of the distress that the u
try has passed through.
Said Senator Carter. the democrats
say the republican party is a goldbug
party. That is falsely said. 1t Is a
makeshift to misrepresent IN facts. IL
Is to build up a wall of smoke before
the Eyes of the people. While he was
in the senate, and while he was chair
man of the republican national commit
tee he told the republican party that it
had been trifing with the money ques-
ton. II must say what IL meant and
mean what Il said. The republican
party said this. that they o main
tain the present monetary system until
such time a. we can get the consent
of a sufficient number of the CONNER
cial nations OF the earth to establish a
system of international bimetallism. on
the other hand. the democrats declared
for the free coinage of silver. ~independ-
ent Of any other nation. tremendous
applause.)
The speaker said he believed that the
restoration of silver could be brought
about by and through the means and
methods of the republican party, and
tina the only hope silver has lies in the
republican party. Thu senator did not
say very much about the silver ques-
tom; not nearly so much as the people
expected him to say. 1t was quite a
disappointment to the people that he
didn't, for IT was for the purpose of
hearing VIA he had to say on this
question that everybody went to the
Margaret.
As soon as the senator dropped the
financial question and took up h de-
tense of the conduct of the war by the
administration. a good many people left,
but the great majority of those pres
ent stayed to hear him out. He told OF
the glorious triumphs of the war and
dismissed tine misery and suffering and
deaths of the oldiers by saying that.
because somewhere along the line a box
of pills had been lost. or that a stretch
er was not at hand every time a man
fell, the democratic party denounced the
administration for its conduct of the
war.
The senator closed his address with an
appeal to support Marshall for congress.
