TOOL OF WALL STREET.
Majority In Congress Not Likely 20
Effect Financial Reform.

those who expect that congress viii
enact the financial reform legislation
mat Is demanded will probably be-
doomed TO disappointment. Some kind
OF n financial measure will perhaps
be agreed 10, but II viii fan far short
or meeting the unfortunate conditions
that Republican policies have pro
cuced. In any event, only a compro-
mise measure may be expected, for
even the bankers are divided into two
schools Of finance One school believes
Imitation through asset currency Will
insure prosperity. and the other
school 10 anxious for central bank
through which all financial blessings
should flow Those who believe in
moro currency are also divided in
opinion upon what It shall be based,
whether on the assets OF the banks,
or upon bonds and stocks. There is
also n serious difference Of opinion
about the rate OF interest the bankers
shall pay on this new currency. The
bankers propose per cent. and those
who are intent on a flexible currency
that will be retired as soon as its pur-
pose Is accomplished. think that not
less than per cent should be paid,
or II would continue in circulation.
Bank currency based on the
assets" OF the banks without any 9TH
er security, is return to the state
bank system that existed before the
creation Of national banks to force a
market for United States bonds. But
the people will never consent to again
use currency that is not good any
where, and that has not the faith and
credit Of the United States behind il,
and can be used in all business tran
sactions without question
The most able inanciers are CON
vinced that the imitation OF the cur
rency has gone far enough, and that it
not imitation that is needed.
Tor imitation Of the currency has
been persistent and Is still going
on. The volume of money in circula-
ton is now about so per cent. more
per capita than II was ten years ago.
and Is progressing at the rate OF near
ly per cent. a year Az the Demo-
Gratis are not charged with the re-
sponsibility OF legislation. and will be
prevented by the autocratic rules Of
the House OF Representatives from
having any voice in formulating the
bill that may eventually be reported
by the committee and that will be
given the right Of way by the all-pow-
erfnl committee on rules, the minor
lty can but criticise and propose such
amendments as they determine are
necessary for the protection of the
public Thus the Republicans must as
sumo the full responsibility and be an
swerable for the consequences.
The present financial system has
been built up by the Republican party
for the special advantage of the ma
uonal banks. and 10 further tinker
with il will eventually produce more
disaster for the people than they are
now suffering. The whole system is
wrong in principle. and i'm practice is
an adjunct OF the frenzied inanciering
of Wall street, for there has never
been a Republican secretary of the
treasury that has not been the willing
tool OF he Wall street bankers.

BEET SUGAR FACTORY
 VISITED AND INSPECTED
Ralph Stone of Detroit is Here in the
 Interest of the Bondholders.

Ralph Stone representing the De troit Trust company, the bondholdcrs of th" sugar beet factory. and A. C. Angill of Detroit, are in the city on business in connection with the case now pending in court for foreclosure
 1t is understood that it will be brought up today before Judge Kent It has been postponed on motion from va rious times.
 It is said that this is one step pre- lliminary to the taking over of the fac tory and again starting the industry here. In event of foreclosure il will
 be put up for sale and will go to the highest bidder to satisfy the SSOO,OO0 in bonds which were issued
 It k probable that the bondholders will bid il in and either lease or sell it to some one who will operate it or operate il themselves. The matter is still in the air and nothing definite concerning the plans relative to the plant could be learned yesterday. Hr. Stone was taken over the city by W. ]. Murphy and was very well satisfied with the conditions here. It
 is his first trip tc this section of the southwest and he says that he sees no reason why the industry should be made to pay here. The climate and green fields impress him very favor ably after what he has travelled
 through on his journey west
 Mir. Stone visited the beet factory yesterday and inspected the machinery and building He stated last night that it was d splendidly equipped plant and while his company had had to do with several factories. none he had visited was better kept and preserved than the one seen yesterday. The ma chinery. though idle. is in good shape This has been looked after by w. D.
 FulwiIer who is interested in the fac tory.

Appendicitis
Few to Avoid It and Escape Surgi- cal Operation, Told by One
 Who Knows.
A Simple Method That Is Always
 Efficacious.

It has only been a few years since it was discovered that a surgical oper- ation would cure appendicitis; in fact. it has been but a short time since the disease was discovered ana named. Whenever there is an inflamed con dition of the appendix, caused by i'm pacted faeces in the small cavity open | ing into the intestines, you then have appendicitis.
 The older doctors used to call this inflammation of the bowels. and were puzzled to know the cause. Even now, with all the knowledge we have of the disease, no medical man can tell you why we should have an appendix. why We find it, where l it is. or what are its functions, if it has any.
 The disease for which the operation is a cure Is usually caused by indiges tion. and in many cases follows large , and indigestible meal Physicians have until recently rec commended an operation, but now, as it is known that it is caused by indi- gestion. or dyspepsia, a cure without an operation is assured Where the patient is treated with Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, the un- healthy conditions prevailing rapidly disappear. the stomach and intestines are placed back in their normal con- dition. every organ of the body oper- ates as it should, and the inflamma- tion is reduced and the operation is avoided.
 Conscientious physicians, who are looking after the best interests of their patients, will always keep a supply of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets handy in their office. where in cases of sudden attacks of indigestion they can relieve the patient at once.
 There is no record of a case of ap- pendicitis where the stomach and bow els were in a healthy condition and properly digested the food from meal to meal.
 No better advice can be given tQ any one who has attacks of indigestion, or who has been threatened with appen- dicitis. than to tell him to go to the drug store. pay 50 cents. and take home package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
