our Smallest Library.

A curious little building is situated
at Pinebluff, North Carolina, and is be-
!ieved to be the smallest public lib
rary in the world. Pinebluff is only
a small place, with population OF
fewer than one hundred in summer.
and when the ladies OF the village de-
cided that they ought to have a public
library they found themselves with
out building suitable for the pur-
pose Finally, a gentleman offered
them band-stand which he had built
In the hope that Pinebluff would soon
become city. and the offer was ac-
cepted with thanks. By giving enter
tainments and so on. the ladies were
able to raise funds to purchase materi-
ais to tiIl in the openings Of the band
stand, and generally At 1t up into

Saye been given and the tiny library,
Of which Pinebluff is very proud, is

ROOSEVELT AT CHANDLER.

IN his five-minute speech at Chan
dler, on the occasion of his recent
visit TO this state, Colonel Roosevelt
said:
no honest man should vote the re-
publican ticket
Colonel Roosevelt was adiuring his
hearers to vote the bull moose ticket
fro mtop to bottom.
In this state It happens that the
bull moosers have no ticket or candi-
dates save for the electoral college.
From congress down, they have failed
to put candidates in the field Ac-
cordingly, aside from the electoral
tickets, there are but three candidates
in the field-the democratic, the stand
pat republican and the socialist
In the light of this situation, the
question naturally arises: What are
the bull moosers going TO do after
voting their electoral ticket? Are
they gcmg to iollow the advice OF
their illpst ous leader and refrain
from voting the republican ticket OF

the bull is tired he changes the earth

result that there is an earthquake!

THE MONEY TRUST AND eco.
OPERATION

After declaring that industrial
trusts feed the money trust,g Golfers
for September 90, in brilliant edi-
torial, says:
No other economic problem in
America is so important as the con
troll which a few financiers exercise
over capital. The control Of capital
is to business what the control of the
water supply Is to life The greatest
economic menace today is the control
over our quick capital, by which all
big business is subject to the will of a
few men Nothing has contributed so
much to the growth of that financial
power of the few as the advent of the
Industrial trust. By converting a large
part of the capital of the country into
negotiable bonds and stocks, which
are listed on the New York and other
stock exchanges, few men are ac-
quiring strength which is almost
world-compelIing The change came
with the creation of the Industrial
trusts and the great consolidation of
railroads. Today no really large enter
prise can be undertaken without the
consent Of few men whose offices, are
in or near Wall Street; and the price.
OF this consent is usually such as to
further enhance the power of our
money kings. This great danger,
which new party leaders generally ig-
more, Governor Wilson appreciates.
Long ago he said
The great monopoly in this comr
try is the money monopoly. So long
as that exists our old variety and free
dom and individual energy of develop
ment are out of the question. A great
Industrial nation is controlled by its
system of credits, Our system of
credit ISIS concentrated The growth
Of the nation, therefore, and all our
activities, are in the hands of few
men, who, even IL their action be hon
est and intended for the public inter-
est, are necessarily concentrated upon
the great undertakings in which their
own money is involved, and who nee
essarily, by reason Of their own limita-
tions, chill and check and destroy
economic freedom This is the great
est question of ALL
These financiers an dtheir depend
ents grow stronger not only through
the unconscionably large promoters
fees and underwriting commissions,
but also through that other and daily
tribute paid ON stock exchange trans
actions. The legalizing of our large
trusts, as proposed by the new party,
would immeasurably increase that tri-
butte. The effect of licensing monopoly
would be to accelerate greatly the
toward monopoly and, in
the absorption of private
business into huge corporations.

The notable array OF conspicuous
men heretofore republicans, including
men who have had opportunity to be
familiar with the work of both Taft
and Roosevelt as public officials, now
supporting Governor Wilson is one of
the strong testimonials to his superior
fitness for the office of president and
one of the best evidences of the drift
of public opinion. Among the men
who have formerly affiliated with the
republican party but now support Will
son with all their power is Rudolph
Spreckles. who more than any other
one man fostered and developed the
progressive movement in California.
Without SpreclIles Heney could have
accomplished nothing. But for the
work done by Spreckles the country
would never have heard of Hiram
Johnson
DR. Wiley, the famous food expert,
finally forced out of the government
service by the reactionaries, strongly
advocates the election of Woodrow
Wilson and strongly condemns both
Roosevelt and Taft in the administra'
ton of the pure food laws.
Jacob Sehiff, New York philan-
thropist, declares for Wilson because
in his opinion Governor Wilson, if
elected. will enter upon his high du-
ties relatively free from partisan
pledges, will bring into the presiden.
tial Office a mind ably trained in eco

Brandeis, the foremost expert on the

recognized whose sincerity and in

Wilson and shows in most convincing
manner the soundness Of his position

Senator LaFollette. Charles r..
