Secretary of the Treasury Cortel-
you has new plan OF depositing
government funds in New York, Bos-
ton and other cities, to afford relief to
the money market In the approaching
crop moving period.
Secretary Cortelyou will, commenc-
ing this week, place each week at
such points in the country as he shall
designate government funds to such
amount as he deems sufficient TO pre-
vent an acute monetary stringency
and possible panic, when the demand
for money Is greatest at the height of
the crop moving period.
The plan of the secretary for none
tary relief is new to the financial
world and one which he believes will
prove more efficacious than the old
method of the treasury department in
waiting until the country was severe
ly shaken financially and then coming
to the relief at the last moment by
placing large deposit of government
funds in New York banks. Secretary
Cortelyou did not state how much
money he would deposit each week,
though he indicated that the amount
would equal the situation.

CONCERNING GOOD LOSERS
Northern Light Urges rlen to Be
 Reasonable at All Times.

The Fairbanks Northern Light illustrates the theory that a man should be a good loser and reaSona- ble creature at all times, by recalling a shining instructor in the art:
 "In the early days of the Klondike rush those passing through coast towns to the interior who could not be per suaded to patronize some of the games provided for the entertainment and financial edifcation of the travellers were, whenever opportunity offered, struck on the head with a sandbag and relieved of their personal effects. Upon recovery from the shock follow ing that dizzy experience and after having discovered his pecuniary loss the astoniShed argonaut would listen to the philosophical Soapy. The best thing for you to do, that gentleman would advise, is to hurry right along on the trail and get across the line. You are up against it here and you will be foolish to make row about this matter, because you cant do any thing. Under the circumstances, you ought to be glad you are alive. The next time, you come in and play your money, take chance and save your head. Now you ought also to be grate- ful to me for this good advice. Be d good loser and a reasonable man.
