One of u Democratic exchange
a week or two ago was busy spread
ing the news that the Democratic
party was not dead not even sleep

accomplished last fall by taking
advantage of local conditions in
Republican states and ended by de
daring that we now had a united
Democracy throughout the country
Perhaps u friend is right, but the
doings in congress OF the past
week do not indicate that har-
mony in the minority party is more
than thick enough to cut with a
knife, The party is better fixed to
stand back and present theories
than to take hold and do things

No More Panics

Pittsburg, Pa, March 49, That
there never again will be a cur
rency shortage in the United
States was a statement of Charles
Fl. Treat, treasurer OF the United
States, before the Pittsburg chap
ter of the American Institute of
Banking tonight. President Taft
and his advisers, he said are famil
lar from long experience with the
banking and financial conditions in
this country and abroad and are
able to handle any situation that
may confront US. He sees nothing
ahead but the brightest financial
prospects and insists that there
will be no futher financial crisis in
this country.
> Among the recommendations
made by Mr.. Treat was that of a
national clearing house bank. He
believes it should be owned by con
stituent banks and have a capital
between 200 and $40 million dollars.
1t should be a eserv bank for all
banks doing business with it and
in time of financial need the Secre-
tary of the Treasury should be
to receive as collateral
securities papers discounted by the
national clearing house banks, on
which there r two indorsers be-
sides the principal. Mr.. Treat
that such security is regard
in Europe as ample.

No instrument so insignificant in
appearance, so inexpensive and sc
easily managed has worked great
er wonders than the road drag
says the Kirksville Express. This
implement that costs about So car
keep the roads for two-thirds oil
the year almost like a race track.
II the country people would orga-
nize to do things for their own
benefit as the people in the city
do, they would devise plans that
would keep this instrument at
work upon the roads at the proper
time and as much of the time as is
necessary to keep the roads in al
most perfect condition. The trouble
with the country people is that
they are waiting for the state, the
county or some other power to
come along and do for them what
they could well afford and a do
for themselves. By proper organ
ization they could have the roads
dragged systematically and prob
ably paid for out of a general tax
and thus insure the performance of
the work at the proper time.

The papers of Missouri have
Just discovered that the farmers OF
this state are missing the chance OF
N lifetime in not planting tobacco.
Some of the statements indicate
that anyone with a few acres OF
good ground and a little work
between holidays can get rich in a
few years. An experienced tobac-
co grower writes that these state
ments r very misleading. He
says it requires a $1,000 barn to
look after a $500 crop-which is all
0ne man can look after. He says
Il takes years OF experience to
make a very meager income at
tobacco growing these times.

MONEY is SAFE

When you place your money in a bank, you trust that bank
az least = the extent of your deposit. Furthermore, in order
that you may be assured ofthe safekeeping of your money, it
IS the duty OF the bank to adopt the best and most certain means
Tor its protection. Experience teaches that strongly built vaults
n massive safes ae not always proof against the attacks of pro-
iessionai cracksmen. While the Farmers Savings Bank is excel
'lently equipped in this particular it also carries INSURANCE
AGAINST BURGLARY, which is the only completely safe and
sane protection against loss. Moreover the amount of insurance
carried is always in excess of the total cash on hand. Possessing
this means OF safeguarding your deposits, we place our facilities
with us.

Would it not be: better to begin

There is no work undertaken by. the
government Of so far-reaching value
to the great mass Of the people, both

The entire postal laws need revis-

in congress with brain big enough to
undertake the work. The posbofee
department ought to be sef-sustain-
ing. AS it is low the ruling Of the
department is law, whether there is
any statute to sustain the ruling O,
not and some Of the rulings scarcely
have the suspi zion Of common sense.
But it would be much wiser to be-
gin economizing in some other direc

The condition Of the public roads
IN many places and the Indifference
of the people to their improvement
would be a good excuse for the cur
tailment of the free rural delivery
of mail. One is almost constrained
to reach the conclusion when he tray

the people who permit such condi-
tions scarcely desire to have any
advantages. But We still hope to
arouse the public conscience to this
