Wiley Planning
 Campaign Against
 Patent Medicines

Washington, July 1O-A brand new campaign against the manufacture and sale of patent medicines is be- ing planned by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley. chief of the Bureau of Chemistry.
 1It is my firm belief" sadd the watchdog of the public health today, that. many thousands of Americans are now suffering from fncurable' diseases who might have been healthy had they used the proper medicines when the disease was in it's infancy. But they relied on the advice Of quacks and consumed large quantities of nostrums which. while they might not have harmed them, stilq did them no good at all.
 eI consider that patent medicines are the curse of this country and I am going to take the matter up with Congress in an effort to effect the passage of a bill which will provide that all manufacturers of patent drugs must have a pharmacists cer- tificate and that all persons who sell OF prescribe those must be possessed of a doctors degree valid in the place where they operate. I think that this will put an end to the illicit business of promiscuous patent medicine se1l- ing and save many thousands of per- sons from becoming slaves to the hab- it.'' .+

TAFT STILL WITH ALDRICH

President Taft's recent statement bnat the adoption of ex-Senator Ald- r1ch's currency system, designed to put the control of American money absolutely in the hands of Wall street bankers, is the most important legis- lation now pending, has resulted in the old issue being raised between himself and progressive Republicans
 He has presented himself and his administration as new menace to public interest, and raised the Dem ocrats and progressive Republicans to a higher plane of public usefulness as the only effective force. The public can absolutely rely upon to resist the aggressive money power of Morgan and the Presidents efforts to serve it.
 Both Aldrich and Mr. Taft declare there is no intention of establishing anything like central government bank. But nobody can read the Ald- rich plan in detail without realizing he proposes His so-called Reserve association of America" is to be the depository and fiscal agent of the national government. It Is to have the sole issue power. It may receive deposits from those national banks that are stockholders in it. It shall establish branch banks, which, just oS uAioC1 liiC CCAlid SoNeIhH1SHI scheme, will rush their local deposits to the central bank thus taking money out of the community which would otherwise be loaned out for invest ment in home enterprises. It may buy and sell government and state securities and gold coin or bullion. 1t may rediscount paper for banks de- posting with it.
 In short, the Aldrich, reserve asso- citation Is bank with immense priv ileges and powers. but without the name of bank. Wall street will con- trol it. It is obvious that the words central bank were omitted because Of the prejudice against such an in- stitution by the country banks. Un- cle Sam once tried a central bank. It was manned and manipulated by politicians and brought a panic on the entire country. Aldrich's flimsy misrepresentation. even though en- dorsed by Mir. Taft, will accomplish but little. Remembering it's last ex- perience. this country will not stand for another central government bank.

Boy Scouts Save
 Millions in Property
 Stopping Mischief
Boys Are Trained to Have Fun Doing Useful Things Instead of Engaging in Destructive Play-The Total Amount in A Year Is Estimated to Be Great.

The leaders of the Boy Scout move- ment of America say that the econo- mic value of, the Boy Scout activities amounts to many millions of dollars in year. This value lies in the pre- vention of malicious mischief and crime among boys growing out of the gang instinct and m the instruct ion of boys to do constructive things. Boys naturally get together in crowds. have their leaders, and plan varlous stunts. If the boys are extremely en- ergetic and have any tendency to- wards destruction they are likely lo do danger to a great amount of prop erty.
 The damage to property which boys can do was shown by the recent in- vestigation into the Police Depart ment of New York. Many police cap- tains complain that one of the great est difficulties with which they nave to contend lies in gang of boys. They furnished records of thousands of de- structive deeds of boys. Throughout the east and west sides of the city, thousands of mischievous boys destroy fences, break windows, damage houses and do many other little things that as a whole amounts to great deal.
 One of the aims of the Boy scout movement is to prevent this destruc- tion of property. The leaders of the Boy Scout organization reeognize the gang instinct and are Seeking to de- velop it along proper lines. They un- derstand that boys have lots of en- erRy want to have fun, and want to be busy doing things. They understand clearly that if this tendency or the boy is not turned to good use. 1t re- suits in evil and malicious mlschle1 Accordingly. Lorillard spencer, Jr" and other workers in the local organl- zation at New York are planning to form more troops in different parts of the city, They want to get the boys interested. They want them to engage r~in activities that will train them physically and be of use to them in after life.
 Throughout the country this aim of turning the energies of boys into use struction of property Is going on. Re ports from all over the country ind1- cate that the aim of the Boy scout leaders is being attained. The Boy Scouts in Jersey are fighting the mosquitoesA Out in Kansas they are trying to clear off the flies. In New Hampshire and Ohio the Scouts are doing everything possible to protec. the birds In almost every State In the Union, they are planting trees. Boys like to help the firemen and the police, and in various cities the ch1efs of police realizing that boys help is much better than his annoyance, are training the boys in police work and various activities. The fremen are training the boys how to act quickly in case of fire and many in stances have been recorded of the catching of thieves and the saving of lives of people by Boy Scouts.

GOOD ROADS WOULD
 SAVE COUNRTY HALF
 BILLION PER ANNUM

Washington. July s-Calculations just made by the Tuited States Office of Public Roads show that a saving of between half a billion and billion dollars a year can be effected if the states would improve twenty per cent of the roads now in operation.
 The Public Roads Office estimate that this improvement would cost each state about $4,O00,0 but that the tremendous yearly saving would more than make up for any expendi- ture. of this kind. Appeals will be sent out to each state asking that the Legislature take steps toward the im- prOyement of roads.

NAVAL BATTLE WITH HORSES
Pace, First President Of Venezuela,
Actually Attacked and Captured
Fleet With Cavalry.

Paez. who was the first president OF
the republic of Venezuela. was per
haps the only man who ever fought
naval battle on horseback. 1t is
matter of. history that he. to whom
more than any other man aside from
Simon Bolivar, Venezuela owes her in
dependence, actually attacked and cap
tured with his cavalry fleet OF
ships.
Bolivar was endeavoring to cross
the Apure river in the struggle for in
dependence, but was prevented from
doing so by some eight Spanish gun
boats. which moved up and down the
stream as he did. Bolivar was in
despair .or awhile. To Paez. who was
second in command, he appealed for
counsel. saying that he could never
cross the river SO long as the Spanish
gunboats were there. IF only WE
could capture them" the revolutionary
leader observed. the rest would bs
easy"
Paez decided that lie would haze
those ships or die. and he according
ly called on his regiment of cowboy
to follow him. Paez himself had beer
cowboy on tie plains of the Orinoco
and was the idol of his men. Sc
when he spurred his horse into tn
stream. calling on his mon to folio y
of the 5000 cowboys and ,leir mounts
which are taught to swim as well a
to gallop, there was not a single ma
to hold out in this unique assault upo
the gunboats. 1t being night, tn
Spanish feet was taken quite Ill
/. awares. The cowboys wriggled froI
| their saddles to the decks of the We.
sells, letting their mounts swim BAG
| to shore. Having thus cut of the'
own retreat. it was a question of wi
or die. They fought well, and ever
: gUnboat was captured.
