THE FIGHT BETWEEN VIII.
SON AND WALL STREET

For those with eyes to see anu
ears to hear there is presented today
perhaps palmer than ever before IN
he history OF the country the meth
DDS by which Wall street controls our
government. In President Taft ana
certain of his nomination they have
what they want in the Republican
party, Il candidate who is friendly to
their interests. But in the Demo-
cratic party they are not SO safe.
Woodrow Wilson is the man Cl all
others they do not want and with
the people he Is the most popular
candidate before the country. Any
thing to defeat Wilson is the cry of
Wall street. In Florida they will
run Underwood against him, hoping
that Underwood being a citizen of L
neighboring State. will poll enough
votes to prevent Wilson getting the
endorsement of Florida. In other
States they are running Clark
against Wilson and in still other
States they are running Harmon
Against Wilson. The conspiracy is
plain enough. 1t cannot be an hon
est desire to nominate either liar-
mon, Underwood or Clark else they
would be run in every State, but it
Is Il bold and above board effort TO
nominate at the head of the Demo
cratic party Il man who will be ac-
teptablc to Wall street. Arc you 60
ing to be a party to this conspiracy
by voting for Underwood or not vot.
ing at all?-Lake City Index.

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
IN A NUTSHELL

There is nothing whatever mys
lerious or complicated in the com
mission form OF government, a:
adopted in about two hundred cite.
of this country and in innumerabls
cities in Europe.
1t is an easily understood, plain
business proposition.
The city is considered as a cor
poratiOn in which each citizen is 4
stakeholder.
The stockholders, at stated times,
select a small board OF directors
to whom is given power to manage
the business OF the corporation for
a given period.
The directors transact the bust
ness of the city exactly as the direc-
tors OF manufacturing corporation
transact the business OF that insti-
tuition
For the sake of efficiency, each
one Of the directors is assigned a Ger
tain department OF the citys actlI-
tiles, and he is held responsible for
the effectiveness and the economy
Of that particular department. He
employs such help as he may need
in the discharge of his duties, and
has the power to discharge them at
will
Frequent meetings OF the board Of
directors are held and they collective
ly and in their capacity Of an Of
fetal board adopt the necessary reg
ulations for the transaction of the
city's general business.
In some cities provision is made
for the control of the board Of di-
rectors by giving the people the right
to pass on any measure or by sug-
costing any measure or by withdraw
ing a member Of the board of direc-
tors il there should be cause for so
doing.

sion form of government in a nut

Did you Help Pay for This Fine
Mansion in Chicago?


Two million seven hundred ana
fifty thousand dollars is snug sun
of money TO pay for home
/ ChicagO's greatest newspaper, The
Record Herald, last week printed tn.
story of the purchase of residence
in Chicago at the above figures. Jul
ius Rosenwald, President of the Sears
4 Roebuck Mail Order House, paid
in cash $2.750,0C0 for a fine home
known as the Columbus Memorial
Building.
This is the largest cash sale ever
made in Chicago. Mail order goods
are not sold at loss. Big money is
made selling second class article
at first-class price. Very few, if
any of those who pass by the home
merchant. and send their money to
the non-tax-payer in the big city
could get to see the inside of this
great mansion. even If they went
around the back way and knocked
at the kitchen door. Why patronize
such an unsociable institution!
Our home merchants are not rich.
They have to hustle to make a liy-
ing and pay taxes and the bills they
owe. We meet them every few days.
Would it not be more real religion
in helping our 'neiet6or and the
folks we know and shake hands with
than our friend Julius, In Chicago?
Think it over. Then repeat the Col
den Rule aloud.

fright or Wrong" is a great Civil
war picture at the Grand tonight A
Confederate soldier receives news OF
his mothers critical illness, but to
reach her side has to steal through
the opposing forces line. A Union
soldier spies him, trails him to the
house and rushes in to make the ar
rest, but is pitied by the scene he in
terrupts-the last embrace of mother
and son. He hesitates whether to
obey his conscience, which prompts
him to free the Confederate, or his
duty, which calls upon him to arrs {
the man. One has to see this picture
to judge if his final course OF action
be right or wrong.
