Walsh, former president of the Chicago Ma
tional Bank.
Walsh bought railroad for less than $780,
OOo issued bonds for more than ST. 100000
borrowed the money from his own bank on the
watered stock and left the depositors in the
hole.
This is the whole story in a nutshell, and it
shows how our present day Captains of High
Finance play the game while they are stealing
the money of depositors and the people in
general.
Chicago bankers have notified the New York
bankers that they are ready to resume business
on a REAL money basis whenever New York
is ready.
This means that the Chicago banks are
ready to pay to their depositors the money
which actually belongs to the DEPOSITOR
instead of FORCING him to take clearing
house certificates.
How kind of the banker to give to the de-
position that which is LAWFULLY his!
Many Of the newspapers are wasting a lot
Of time and space in telling us how the issuing
of clearing house certificates helped relieve the
money situation, but you do not see so much
about what HARM they have done.
In the bigger cities where thousands of per-
sons have to be paid their salaries weekly
in order to buy their weekly provisions MUCH
harm has been done.
In some instances the grocer refused them
outright and in others he accepted them at
discount, thus leaving the laborer without
means to buy the actual necessaries Of life, or
making him accept less for his labor than he
was entitled to.
In other instances swindlers have aroused
the suspicious of the poor and superstitious
and bought the certificates at discount
But the loudest wall is yet to come.
Wait until the day for redeen1ing these GER
tifcates rolls around. If there are not thou-
sands of them presented for redemption which
the different clearing house officers will pro-
nounce counterfeit, it will be because the coun-
terfeiter's sympathy for the people has been
aroused to such an extent that he has sus-
pended business for awhile.
Any good printer or engraver with the ordi-
nary outfit could counterfeit most of them, but
some Of them are so shabby looking that a
first class printer would be ashamed to &C
knowledge doing the work.
The wrapper around five cent cake of tur-
pentine soap looks better than some of them
while imitation money or premium coupon
from package of Arbuckle's coffee looks like
a work of art when put by the side of the
certificate.
In New York City the theatrical managers
have locked their imitation money, which they
use on the stage, in their safes because so
much of it was being stolen and passed off in
exchange for the clearing house certificates
many people thinking it more like real money
than the cheap looking slips of paper issued
by the clearing houses.
1t is up to the Georgia Railroad Commission
now to do SOmethino or omit business under

girl, many frail woman, and many feeble
man.
Gentlemen of the Commission The Tefferso-
MAN prays you, in the name of common ht1-
rnanity to compel these railroad companies to
do something.
The men whose votes put the present ad-
ministration in power live chiefly in rural com
munities. Their wives and their children are
suffering from your failure to take action.
These men went to the polls, enthusiastic
ally, last year because of certain promises that
had been made.
One of those promises was that the rail-
roads should be compelled to recognize the
right of the passenger to decent accommo-
dation while waiting to take the trains.
In few months those same men will be
going to the polls, again.
Every promise made them last year will be
kept fresh in their minds. By the record YOU
will be judged. The Jeffersonian prays you,
earnestly, to keep faith. We want no more

Obey In Alabama.

A notorious Federal Judge a man of the
name of Jones, undertakes to put the state of
Alabama out Of business. With squirt of the
pen, this man Jones has abolished the Govern
or, the Legislature, and the people of great
state.
Yet we fancy that we live in democratic
republic
BY the Eleventh Amendment to the Consti-
tuition, private citizen is forbidden to bring
a state down to the level of a common litigant.
But to such man as this Jones of Alabama,
the Constitution is nothing. He is so inebriated
with silly ideas of his own power and import
ance that he allows the insolent Milton Smith.
of the L. & N. Railroad, to drag the state of
Alabama into the courts, defying her laws,
and paralyzing her constituted authorities with
Injunctions!
What an insuFerable situation!
Governor Conner cannot and will not back
down. He must enforce the law. His oath of
office binds him to do just that. His own
sense of right will nerve him to do it. If this
inso1ent Milton Smith and this usurpng
Federal Judge makes it necessary for
you to do it, Governor, call out the military
of the state to enforce the laws Of the state
THEN the corporations will discover that
the man in the White House is another An

rvs grim remark,

when 1t is completed it will present a delightful maze of mountainside, wind ing streams, silver lakes, flashing water fails, shaded hooks and cool pathways. It borders on the tortu- ous and wildly beautiful Monument creek. and is easily accessible to all the inhabitants of Colorado Springs.
 The work of construction was begun January, 1904, and many property owners, realizing the scope and i'm portance of Gen. Palmers plans, deeded over their holdings, and others were purchased. Some idea of the magnitude of the work can be ob- tained when it is stated that since January, 1904, the force employed on the construction of the park has not been less than 100 men and ten teams, and has reached a maximum of 407 men and 127 teams. More than 100,- 900 cubic yards of rock, 10000 cubic yards of gravel, 30,0O0 yards of adobe, 40 carloads of cement and 1S,000 cubic yards of manure have been used. The grading work included the mov- ing of little over 90o,OO0 cubic yards of earth and sand.
 Expert landscape gardners are do- Ing their work with view of taking advantage of existing trees and de- veloping all the natural beauties of the landscape. The foliage will be varied and beautiful. About 1000

FOR SUMMER WEAR
SIMPLE COSTUMES FOR GILL
 pREN EASILY MADE.
All Over Elaboration and Showlness is Considered Out of Place on Gar ments for the Little
 Ones.

The making of children's frocks. and especially those designed for summer materials. present few difficulties to the home dressmaker, as although most of the costumes seen follow rather closely the general lines of those designed for grown-ups, the trimmings are much more simple and the fitting presents few difficulties.
 It Is not considered good taste nowa- days to have anything ostentatious or elaborate about children's frocks, and although some of the finer models show exquisite handwork and fine laces in their decoration. there is never any effect of showiness. Youth full simplicity is aimed at by all the best designers. nevertheless, very orig final and smart effects are gained.
 The long shoulder line is noticea- ble in all of the frocks for young girls.

 The members of the Fierce Gang were dancing about in lot back of the barn. In their midst, tied to a post, was Patty, the handsome family horse.
 Suddenly the leader of the Gang" held up one hand Gin which there was a pair of shears) for silence. The leaders first assistant took hold of Pattys tail and said "Whoa" many times. But no one spoke very loud. It was better that things should pro gress quietly. The two other members of the Gang" still danced wildly and laughed, while the two other members gesticulated, whispered and laughed, too.
 Bob 'er of quick" said the next to the youngest member. Yes, do; oh, do,' agreed the very youngest member, eagerly.
 Well" said the leader, we're all goin' to have hand in this business, 80 one of you held 'er head, one of you hold Ter tail. one of you keep watch, and I'll do the rest"
 Snip. snip, snip, snip-and then Pat ty stood with her tail bobbed off. Then the boys sat down and laughed.

To-Morrow's Landlord,

T made a good deal this morning" said the New Yorker.
 What was it?" asked the country friend.
 Well, I leased the basement of my building for a rathskeller; then I leased the lot for a hundred feet be- low that for a storage cellar. and the hundred feet below that leased to the Underburrow company for a sub way station. And there's a man after me now for the hundred feet below that for a Turkish bath-says he'll pay a good rent, too. as he'll get his heat free"
 What. with all that and your fifth story office building. you must make a mint of money out of your skinny It. tie lot,- said the country friend.
 "Oh. that's not all" answered the New Yorker. The hundred feet of air above my roof leased to the Joy line of air freightcrs. and above that get ground-I mean air-rent for the station of the LOndon-New York air ship ne.--Jndge.

For other fine summer dresses, embroidered Swiss or batiste vie with the plain lingerie materials. and there are also among the new fabrics charming materials which show an embroidered dot or sprig of delicate color on a white ground. Less expensive are the sheer cottons show ing dainty printed designs in flower patterns. China and India silks are also appropriate for children's wear, but a great many much prefer the crisp white materials or delicately col. bred batistes, mulls and other wash fabrics as being smarter than any of the silks.

 To turn to consideration of the cos tunes shown in our large illustration. The figure on the right reveals dress of the finest ninon, trimmed with thick lace and tassels, and the hat is of crinoline straw with a panache of feathers at one side. It would look well either in a biscuit color or in pale gray, I should say, although own to friend who has determined to copy 1t in dull light pink, and note parenthetically that all shades of dull light pink are receiving consid- erable attention. while I remember with gratitude costume made of this ninon with the ninon worked into rosettes and tassels, bearing a bod ice of Japanese outline, with a vest and the under sleeves of very fine ivory net Crowned with a crinoline hat of brown encircled with brown leaves and pink and red roses the re- suit was pre-eminently satisfying.
 But am forgetting that other illus tration, which expresses costume de- signed for dress outdoor occasions, held across the front with coral but tons set in gold, fine lace forming the vest, and ninon the skirt. For grace commend me to the we'll hung ninon skirt!! The hat you will see is trimmed with monster bow of ribbon, and in the tying of the rib bon is there much art. s.. .s.

Electric Radiators,

Among the new products to be handled extensively this year by wholesale plumbers are luminous and non-luminous electric radiators. The electric radiator gives heat from a source that is clean and safe as an electric light. and the luminous radi- ator is regarded as giving all the ben efts of an open fire, besides doing away with danger from sparks. smoke, gas, ashes and soot The luminous radiator is appreciated most on chilly days. when 1t Is not consistent and economical to start a fire. It can be easily carried from room to room and when connected gives immediate heat with the turning on of the current Electric News Service

Lingerie.

Nainsook, pongenette. batiste. muIi and fine cambric are the materials in vogue for the construction of under. garments. The two requisites for ma. terials are that they must not add to the weight of the garment or bulk to the figure. With the marked tenden- cy in outer garments towards the more fitted forms. particularly about the hips, 1t becomes essential that undergarments should preserve the natural outlines of the figure. There is no fullness over the hips of we'll cut drawers and petticoats. and trimming on corset covers and chemises Is fat. French lingerie now is sold at moder. ate prices and Is gaining in favor, for although not SO betrimmed as the American variety 1t generally Is well cut. A small amount of hand em. broidery Is used and where ribbon is employed for drawing up garment it Is run through buttonholed slIts In order to make the garment durable.

Fashion would seem to have the blues, and yet to suffer no depression therefrom, but indeed, to welcome them with gay enthusiasm. Every shade of blue is worn and many are combined in more or less happy union. Distinctly happy was the alliance of 3 blue voile gown of deep China blue with a peacock blue hat wreathed with blue roses, the costume being completed by blue kid gloves taking almost royal tone.

 We have no mean choice between the various tones of biscuit, almond and wash-leather, and, by the way, with a blue serge dress and a black tie, wash-leather colored gloves must be reckoned as superlatively attract i've; and talking of blue serge, will return to the popular craze of blue, and note with much satisfaction that the blue serge dress looks extremely well when crowned with one of the hats of the new bright blue, which may best be described as China blue with a strong. dash of peacock in it, Trimmed at one side with a rosette of

With this is worn as bodice a shirt of fine lawn with a double frill of lace down the front, and a low-cut waist. coat of violet satin. The desired loose outline is given by the quaint little short-waisted sac coat in deep cream taffetas, the same shade as the fou- lard, which is trimmed with bands of coarse cream silk braid and tassels, into which a thread of violet is worked delicately, the violet note be- ing accentuated by the turned:back cuffs, which are of violet satin like the waistcoat This original dress Is completed by big mushroom hat in cream straw. covered with a mass of bows in violet satin ribbon.
 Naturally we are turning our atten. ton at this time to all those light and seductive materials which manufac. turers and dressmakers have devised for our temptation this year. The vOiles and silk muslins are loveller than ever just now. and so are the ninons and marquisettes, the fine satin cloths and shantungs. the fou- lards and tussores: and perhaps love. Hest of all in their soft coIorings are the shot taffetas, with which the most exquisite effects can be obtained.
 Amongst other articles of the ap- parel the walking shoe bears impor- tant relations to the summer outfit Shoes have assumed a round-toe rath- CT than a pointed one. and the latest method of their adjustment is a lac. ing of broad glaoe ribbon. which is tied in a bow on the instep above the broad tongue.
