THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM.

Suspicion of unsoundness directed
against any financial institution usu-
ally Mndermines it and starts panic
which results in great hardship to
the bankNitself and untold disaster to
its creditoks Every safeguard should
therefore beN provided in order that
unsafe practices in banking may be
uncovered. bud care should be exer-
cised that the methods employed in
our system of banking should pre-
vent rather than create unjust sus-
picion. Mr.. R. o. Green of the Green
Wheeler Shoe Coz of Fort Dodge,
pointed out in redent address, lone
feature of our preslent banking sys-
tenn illustrating its weakness. when
coupled with a declining cfapfidence
which always prevails when Isuspic-
ion once starts its hurtful Journey
He said further, There is no'.pro-
vision under our present system, for
bank to borrow money except it
lists such borrowing under the hesad
cf 'rediscounts.' Coupled with a suAs-
picion directed against bank, this
indicates an element of weakness in
stead of being considered an element
of strength as il would be under
some plan adopted along the lines
suggested by the National Citizens
League. Now, suppose you apply
this condition to your own business.
Suppose you were placed in a posi-
tion where you could not borrow
money to conduct your legitimate
business unless you created suspic-
ion against you although perfectly
solvent and entitled to use any fair
means to procure funds to continue.
Now, when these conditions arise and
bank cannot loan for lack of money,
although with plenty of resources. it
cannot pay, and havoc reigns. In
dustrial panic arises. Labor is idle.
And labor always suffers the most.
Famine seizes the land, and in a land
of plenty. What spectacle, Is it
not time that we awake from our
legarthy, we business men, and re-
habilitate our banking and currency
laws with virile strength, sufficient
10 avoid for all time to come such
financial panics as this country was
cursed with in 1902"

PENSION BILL Is LAW.
New Measure Increases Pensions
$35,OOO. 900 Annsally. y.

= = 3 y Y q .
The presiSent Saturday signed the
new Increased pension bill, passed by
the house and senate. The measure
was signed and became a law just
before midnight, in the executive Of
fees at the white house.
The bill as finally agreed to carries
an increase OF $35, 100000 for pen
sions during the first year of its
operation. During the first three
years the increased payments to vet
erans will average $22,0OO.0OO.
AS finally agreed to, the bill pro-
vides increased pensions for 420,965
veterans. according to the estimates
of the house committee. Every vet
eran serving ninety days or more in
the naval or military service during
the civil war, who has been honor
ably discharged, and who is over 62
years old. is cared for by the new
law.
For veterans 81 years old and ov.
er, the new rate provided in the new
law for ninety days service is S13 a
month, and it ranges to SIC a month
up to the three years of service; fol-
sc years and over the rate is SIS a
month for ninety days, and ranges VI
to $40 for three years; for 20 years
old and over the rate for ninety days
is SIS a month, and ranges up to
SIS a month for three years at Il
years old and over the rate for ninety
days is SCI, and ranges up to $50

tn. tcx rent of early legislation to
put il ~ It the plan suggested by
his comn Nu> IN economy and eff

ployes when l. each the age of
70 years. The plan would automat-
ically retire employees at 70 years on
an annuity, with the proviso that no
person should receive more than
5000 a year. The retirement fund
would be created by contributions
from the salaries of the employees
During the next twenty years the cost
to the government would be about
1927, 900 year, but the saving dur
ing the following sixteen years would
equal the entire cost of inaugurating
the plan. The scheme provides that
hereafter each employe entering the
government service shall by his an
nual contributions to the retirement
fund pay all the expenses of his own
retirement. Present employees would
be assessed not to exceed per cent
Of their salaries and the government
would contribute for employees who
are nearing the 70 year mark. En-
ployes who leave the service would
have the privilege of withdrawing
their deposits with per cent inter-
seat.

ALL PARTIES MAY NOMINATE.
No Excuse For Incomplete County
Tickets in Iowa, Says Attorney
General.

There will be no excuse whatever
for failure of any political party to
have county ticket in the field this
year even though candidates were
backward in pressing their claims
and failed to get on the printed bal
lots.
Attorney General George Cosson
has ruled that in the case of county
Offices if there has been votes cast
for candidates by writing in OF the
names, but failure to nominate for
any reason, the county convention
will have jurisdiction and the right
to fill out the ticket. This will be
the case whether 10 per cent of the
county vote was cast or not.
The last legislature amended the
primary law to shut out the making
of nominations for county and town
ship offices, where there had been
failure to file the papers, by a vote
Of just few OF the electors who
would write in the names on the bal
lots. The amendment requires 10
per cent Of the county vote of the
party to make a nomination by the
writing process.
Some persons were disposed to
hold that unless 10 per cent of the
vote was thus cast the county con-
vention could not act; but the attor-
Iney general holds that the failure to
get 10 per cent of the vote operates
exactly as the failure to secure 35
per cent on state nomination would
operate or in case of tie vote any
where. 1t follows therefore that if
candidates are voted for by writing
in, and nobody gets the needed 10
per cent, the county convention can
do the rest
1t required a somewhat liberal con-
struction of the statutes to reach this
conclusion, but Attorney General Cos
son has leaned toward this liberal
construction on the theory that the
purpose of the law was to make it
as easy as possible to secure nomina-
lions and not the purpose of the law
'kp deprive any party of the right of
making, nominations where it would
be just as well to have the nomina-
tions made.
i- rn tnI hat >,,k s,~ h. 49, -
there are many counties where there
were no candidates announced for
county offices merely because of the
unwillingness of available persons to
go through the machinery of the
primary. In all, such cases the de-
cision opens the door for a NOM
ination by convention with only little
trouble.
