VOTES $500 A HEAD

The grand jury in Adams county,
Ohio, is finding indictments by the
hundreds for bribery. Those
charged claim that the surround
ing counties are equally guilty
During the past decade there
have been no political issues that
concern the ordinary voter. The
only question is as to who shall
get the honors and emoluments of
office.
AS result, when candidate
asks farmer for his vote the far
mer puts him off by saying he
don't care to lose the time and will
not go to the polls unless he gets
pay for his time which is on an
average - co.
This practice has become 80
general as to call for an investiga-
ton.
What is true in Ohio is true to
a large extent in Colorado. The
party that puts up the cash is u.s.
ually the winning party.
In Rio Grande county, where at
least 200 votes were bought by the
winning party at the November
election; $500 was the average
price paid for single votes. Work
ers' secured from the opposite
party were paid $40. The man
from Denver and the agent from
Center, who spent a week round
ing up the purchasable vote have
not as yet filed their accounts with
the county clerk.
Colorado now has direct legisla-
ton and with the recall and head
less BALLOT, there will be a large
decrease in corrupt politics. Then
it will not be a disgrace for
preacher to run for office.

AVAILABLE CURRENCY

1t is n quite common belief that
the amount Of money available for
business is much greater now than
it was during the latter part of
1896. This belief has been en-
gendered very largely by the re-
ports of the Treasury Department,
which are made to show that the
per capita circulation has been in
creased from less than 1923 at that
time to oyer S35 at this. There is
no more deceptive thought than
that the per capita circulation as
reported by the Treasury Depart
ment gives any correct informa-
ton OF the amount Of money in
actual circulation and available
for business.
The cash reserves Of banks so
held are no more in actual circula-
ton than the money assets of
the government in the United
States TREASURY. Neither can be
used for business purposes.

AN AUTO DRIVE

"A while ago Gilbert Hubbard

the Pacific coast on a lecturing
tour. At Vancouver he fell in
with "blase Englishman" of
whom Mr.. Hubbard relates the
following story:
There was a smart taxicab stand.

at Vancouver, bearing the legend,
For Hire"
The Englishman was the typical
globe-trotting Britisher, wearing a
hemlet, monocle, a checked-suit
of tweed, a trihe loud, and carried
cane.
l had met the man in the Club,
and we had had ginger-ale or
something together. Incidentally,
l had told him l was on my way to
Seattle.
AS we walked out of tile Club
his eye spied the sign, For Hire"

Seattle was two hundred miles
away.
Jaw, now, my word, you Yankees
are so queer. 1t isn't so far as it
is from Suez to Khartoum, and l

l still declined.
In disgust, he stepped into the
motor-car, settled himself back,
as he lighted his briarwood pipe,
remarked to the chauffeur one
word, "Seattlew
The chauffeur stared, and asked
him to repeat it.

took his place at the wheel, and as
they shot around the corner the

The next evening, when l lectur-

He and Pyles, for that was the
chautfeur's name, had struck up
friendship.
Pyles had been in the British
Navy, and the two were quite
chummy. They had telegraphed
the owner Of the car and gotten
permission to go on down to San

going to load Pyles and the auto on
