Why would any man send his money to
Europe for investment il he could find
a place in this country to invest it?
Money sent abroad for investment must
be sent for d OF two reasons, either be-
cause the man who sends the money
over there thinks more of the PEOPLE
over there than he does of the people
here, and does iG for love and devotion,
or because it is a matter OF business,
that is, because he can invest it to better
advantage in a European country than
he can in this country"
Mr. Bryan either knows or does not
know hat the country has accumulated
so much money under that financial
system which he is trying to break down
that 1t has money to lend at a low rate
of interest to the rest of the world. He
either knows or does not know that a
low rate of interest is good for the
country in general, especially for that
I'debtor class for which he shows SO
much concern. He either knows or does
not know that a country which is able
to lend must be prosperous, He either
knows or does not know that the big
slice of the German loan taken by a life
insurance company represents in large
measure the savings of many men in
moderate circumstances.
If he does not know these things, he is
too big a fool to be President. If he
does, and yet talks as he talked at
Monet, he is too dishonest to be Presi-
dent.

The Montanian is supposed to publish
the ne VS., but strained itself a little
when iC published its version of last
weeks killing at Dupuyer. In its en-
deavor to publish something different
from the account given by our represen-
%tative, it has drawn heavily upon the
imaginative resources of the EDITORS un
derstudy. That the Montanian is doubt
full as to how it's version will be received,
is shown. by its argument that it's in
formant stood within SIX feet of Lucero,
and so "his account of the tragedy must
be correct" This would appear to be a
shy at the account of the affair as pub
lished in last weeks ACANTHA, hence our
protest. We have too much respect for
our townsman, whom the Montanian
asserts is its authority, to believe that be

clude that it's article was published tc
assert it's own originality, and place al
issue the facts stated in the ACANTHA.

Roberts Succeeds Wolseley.

New York. Oct. 1.-The appointment
of Lord Roberts to succeed Lord Wolse-
ley as commandment chief of the British
army had all along been expected, says
the London correspondent of the Fri

made last night can only be regarded, in
view of the general election, as a clever
political maneuver. With Lord Roberts
as commander in-chief, the question OF
appointing d new secretary for war will
be reduced in Importance, the very fact

man in black trousers, showing con

National League.-
Special to the indianapolis Journal.


MILWAUKEE,, Wis, May 20.-In the
presence of seven thousand spectators the
indianapolis team exhibited it's prowess to-
day by defeating Milwaukee by score of
IL to 8. The victory of the visitors was more
easily accomplished than the score exhib-
it's, batting Wheeler out OF the box and
treating Rettger to severe punishment In
two innings while outside of the first, Sec
ond and ninth innings Dammann escaped
without a scratch and pitched gilt-edged
ball For four innings the score was close.
but then the heavy hitting Of Indianapolis
began to tell, and after that there was no
doubt where the victory would perch In
the ninth inning, however, the Milwaukees
made a strong bid. but a marvellous catch
by Seybold, of Burke's terrific line drive to
deep center, saved his team from annihila-
tion as Smith followed with single; Yea
ger, who batted for Rettger, hit for two
bases; a gift and two errors followed in
quick succession, and Anderson planted a
double in left, trio of runs scoring. but
Dammann struck Clark out. The crowd
was so large that a ground rule was
adopted, giving the batter only two bases
on ball hit among the spectators, or else
some of the hits would have counted for
triples.
The fielding was loose, and three Of the
errors made by the Milwaukees proved dis
astrous, but Indianapolis also played poor
ly at times. Powers's error of Judgment in
the second inning giving the Milwaukees
an opportunity to score three runs. Ma
goon's fielding was sensational, and the
batting of Seybold, Madison, Hartzel and
Hogriever was wonderful, while brilliant
catches by Garry, Anderson, Burke, Hart
sci and Seybold reused the enthusiasm Of
the spectators. The heaviest hitting was
done in the fifth inning. when Seybold
opened on Wheeler with home-run drive
over the left-field fence, Madison and Pow
ers singled and Hogriever capped the eli
max with a two-baser to deep center, re-
sulting In the withdrawal of Wheeler from
the slab and the substitution of Rettger.

New York Financier.
The $500 national banks In the United
States are compelled to use yearly In pub
fishing their official statements space
equivalent to that contained in eight hum
dred pages of ordinary newspaper size.
This is required by law, but since many
banks repeat their statements in different
publications it is safe to assume that twice
the estimated space is used in setting forth
the details of condition at stated intervals.
To show what this means. it may be stated
that eight hundred pages Of the average
seven-colunn newspaper. twenty inches to
the page. represent 15eS.000 agate lines.
Prices for publishing matter OF this kind
of course vary widely. but the average will
hardly fall below 10 cents per line. The
banks, therefore, in addition to the sums
which they are compelled by law to ex-
pend are paying not less than 1885, 500 year.
ly in giving extra publicity to their state
ments. The real total. it Is safe to say,
runs far beyond the figure named.
Without assuming any degree OF expert
knowledge, We may be pardoned for saving
that the space which the banks pay for
contains about the poorest lot of advertis-
ing matter before the public to-day. In
making this assertion. we do not mean to
convey the idea that the subject matter it

the case, what benefit accrues in putting

money is absolutely wasted.
II bank officers would bear In mind the

PLANS OF ADVENTISTS
MAKING FOR 4
GENERAL PRAISE SERVICE.
A Modest People Who Believe I'm Prac-
ticing What They Preach-The
Lighthouse Mission.

The Seventh-day Adventists of the State
are now holding a called meeting for the
purpose of getting the representative men
of the church together for a general praise
service. Although Saturday was their Sun
day special services were held yesterday. A
sunrise meeting was held in the morning
led by w. A. Ebert, of Franklin. and the
services at 10 o'clock was addressed by Ell
der r. S. Donnell, president of the Indiana
Conference His subject was Conversion
and Tithing. Systematic Benevolence."
He dealt at length with the various meth
eds of securing money for the church, hold
ing the free will offering above all. He also
said that the hour Of judgment spoken of
in the Bible is now upon us and the old
biblical prophecy is being fulfilled.
The afternoon meeting at o'clock was
addressed by Elder Davis, of Evansville.
He preached from John Xxx, %: "And when
he had said this he breathed on them, and
saith unto them. Receive We the Holy
Ghost He said that although these
words were spoken 1900 years ago they have
hot lost their force and that the admoni-
ton is applicable to-day. The text. he said,
Is an inspiration TO life, something for
which all Christians hunger. hunger that
can only be satisfied by constant longing
and application to the divine law
The Aiventists are very modest people
and believe in practicing what they preach.
The Lighthouse Mission and church on
South Capitol avenue, where the meetings
are being held, is a monument TO their
religion. The entire two-story building and
basement has been leased and converted
into a hotel and chapel. The upstairs is
filled with iron hunks, the ground floor has
dinning-room and chapel and the base
nent contains bath room and reading
apartment. The price of lodging is ten
cents and access to the sleeping rooms Is
cnly gained through the bath room. All
dodgers must go this way, battle, leave their
clothes on a rack and don a fumigated
Light shirt before going to bed. While they
sleep their clothes are fumigated and re-
placed on the rack ready to be put on In
the morning BY strictly enforcing these
| rigid rules the beds are neat and clean and
| there is no chance for the place to become
| infected with disease. In the dining-roop
| meals are served as low as cents The
| place is comparatively new and is not vel
