THE inside TRACK
ROCKEFELLER'S INSIDE TRACK ON
THE U. S. TREASURY.
Why the Rockefeller interests Are
and Must be Republican,. The
National City Bank Has the In.
side Track to the United States
Treasury.

There is persistent rumor in Wash
ington that the Rockefeller banks have
received a tip from the United States
treasury that the government bonds that
mature next year are to be refunded.
The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Record Herald gives detailed
account of how the Rockefeller bank 8
are to profit by this prior information
and says Secretary Shaw "declnes to
elucidate." After showing that the
National City Bank is advertising to pay
81 ,O32 90 for 81 ,00J bond, he points out
that while this sounds like fine PROPOSE
tion, the National City b INK is not in
the habit of putting out its money at less
than per cent. year, and that in pay.
ing 1854 for the 1907 bonds, it really
would make profit OF only three-quar
ters of ] per cent. If it held them with
the expectation that they would be re-
deemed at maturity, nearly year from
now. Secretary Shaw, it is declared,
would scarcely retire the issue in advance
Of maturity and pay premium that
would insure profit above l0314.
AS to selling the bonds to small banks
wanting them for the purpose of securing
government deposits, it is pointed out
that to afford the National City adequate
returns on its investment, cost OF adver-
tising, ETC., said small banks would have
to pay premium that would make their
government deposits an expensive luxury
inasmuch rs they would expect to have
them redeemed within less than year
at par.
Therefore, it is sought to cultivate the
suspicion that the real purpose of the
philanthropic National City Bank is to
gather in $50,000.00O or more of the
bonds, knowing they are to be exchanged
shortly for per cents, and being in a
position to make very favorable terms
with the government when the refund
ing time comes.
AS this Rockefeller bank is the one
that demanded after the election of
President Mckinley that it should be
given the inside track, to reward il for
its liberal subscriptions to the republican
campaign fund, this question that is be-
ing asked is, what has it done now to
merit exclusive information and a chance
to make millions, if not for liberal sub
scriptions to the Roosevelt campaign
fund two years ago?
Whatever republican administration is
in power, it does not seem possible to
divorce this favored corporation from
the treasury of the United States.

THEY WERE THERE.
Mass r1eefing to Discuss Advance.

Ii there was an opinion formed to the
effect that the citizens of Aberdeen were
apathetic along the line of the special

meeting held Thursday night would haye

The city council chamber was filled

lie meeting.
1t was gathering OF property owners
who exhibited desire to "find OUT
There was a prevailing sentiment that if
the move to advance Aberdeen to city
of the second class was to be beneficial
one, then it should be supported. The
discussion clearly showed this. The ad-
vocates of advancement appeared willing
to drop the idea if shown that it was
disadvantage.
In this connection the meeting was
indebted to Attorney j. c. Hogan for
most thorough explanation of the subject
from the legal standpoint. And this was
the very point upon which light was
needed. 1t transpired that the law for
cities OF the second class is defective, for
the main reason that no such city has
yet existed in the state. The meeting
concluded by resolving the advancement
should be made, and by appointing At
torneys Hogan and Agnew committee
to draft such measures for legislative
enactment as were required to place the
second class cities on fair and equitable
basis.

So far as Aberdeen and Hoquiam were

questions. 1t was up to the voters on
the question of state senator and the
county seat. With the former sides were
easily lined up, but on the court house
removal question there were all sorts OF
evasions attempted by the pie counter
brand OF patriots. This line fell easily
and early. In this city the issue was
clearly cut between two factions OF the
dominant party The game was pleas

the question OF advancing Aberdeen to a

The fact that but 20 votes were cast

HOLLAND COWS IN FAMILY.
In That Country They Are as Much
Part of Family as Is Pig
in Ireland.

In Holland cows are as much a
part of the family as the Irish.
mans pig, for one member of the
family always sleeps in the stable
to watch, and often the place is
made a sort of family sitting
room.
The COW stable is generally a
large building paved with brick.
upon which the cows lie, straw be-
ing scarce. There is a brick paved
passage down the center, at one
end OF which is a fireplace, and the
windows are covered with white
curtains as dainty as those used
in the house proper.
Sometimes an entire family will
gather in the stable in the even.
lngs, enjoying the warmth of the
ire and exchanging the talk of the
day, and the cattle, always placed
with their heads facing the cen.
tral passage, chew their cuds and
almost seem to enjoy the human
eompanionship. These cows are
seldom brown, most of them being
either black or white, or of the two
colors mixed, and because of the
fertility of the pasturage and the
care taken in their keep they are
capable of giving large yields Of
rich milk. In no place in the world
are COWS made as much of, and
from the annual yield of butter il
would seem that the care is not
taken in vain.

DIRECTOR OF THE WEDDING
Boston Woman a Pioneer in New oc-
supation for Women-A Much
Needed Person.

a wide awake woman in Boston
has found a new outlet for wOm-
ans activity by taking charge of
weddings. On the day of the mar
riage ceremony the bride and the
brides mother are generally too
busy and too tired to give
much attention to the man.
agement of details. AS a helper
in this household emergency the
wedding director fills a long felt
want. The name of this pioneer is
Mrs. Nellie Blifins, and she lives
with her husband and daughter on
Boston's aristocratic Beacon
street.
Mrs. Blifins' method is to get to
the house early and to give her
first attention to the trousseau.
She sees to it that the dress, gloves
and slippers are just right. She
then takes charge Of the packing.
The bride eats her luncheon in
comfort knowing that everything
she needs will be in her bags and
trunks. carefully inventoried in q
little book as to its precise loca.
ton.
Mrs. .Blifins is at the church
door before the marriage cere.
mony, to give the last touches to
the brides gown before the bride
enters the church. The girls
mother is even saved from having
to see that the rooms are put in or
ger after the newly-wedded wife
has gone on her wedding tour.
Mrs. Bliffins attends to all that.
The value of the work of the
wedding director is best attested
oy the popularity it has attained.
Most OF her business, Mrs Bliffins
says, comes indirectly. 1t has
grown on the principle of the ad.
Vertlsement of a certain merchant
some years ago: 'If you don't like
it, tell me; if you do like it, tell
Others"
AT first many people were in
cllned to pOOh-pooh the idea of a
wedding director. Now, however,
they have learned that even to run
a wedding properly takes some ex.
pert knowledge. Mrs. Blifins is
