MRS. C. H. BROOKS LAID IN
HER LAST RESTING PLACE.
lFrom Wednesdnr,s pally.l

This morning at 10 O'Clock fun

were held at the Catholic church,
and were simple and impressive, be-

Minnie F. Moriarty was born April
Z, 1890, in Abilene, and in the house
in which she died. She has lived
here all of her brief span of life
and was one of the finest products
of our beautiful womanhood. She
was loved and revered by everyone
who knew her, and her gentle and
kindly nature is a sacred remem-
brance which will be cherished by
her friends and loved ones Nesting
in her arms in her resting place was
the tiny body Of her son, born but
a few hours before she was called
to the heavenly home. They both
looked as If a calm sleep had en-
rapted them, and the morrow would
behold life returning.
Mrs. Brooks was a graduate Of
the public schools and of Mt. st.
Joseph academy and filled we'll her
part in all walks of life. On June
%. 1911, she was married to Cecil
H. Brooks and their brief married
life had but given a glimpse of the
happiness that was to be theirs.
To the father and mother bereft
of their only child, the future seems
dark and drear, and for the sor-
husband words OF consolation
are meaningless, and only time. the
great healer, can reconcile them to
the loss Of one dearer than life it.

Country Not Deceived by DemagOgues
There is no cause for hysteria,
nor for being deceived by the dem
agogues who wish to use sensations
for political purposes. The great
mass OF the people are honest, sem
sible and penetrating, and the SEN
sation-monger is sure to lose stand
ing sooner or later. The fact Is
patent that in large cities like New
York the banking capital is large
because the amount of trade there
is large, that vast sum of trans
actions is just as legitimate as those
in a small town; and that the great
majority of the men in charge are
honorable and upright But that

money market to give themselves
special advantages in supporting
their own enterprises, or those in
which they are more or less inter-
ested, they are very likely to invest
their vast wealth in bank shares, IN
railway companies, industrial COM
panies and the like. BY interlocking
directorates' so called. they may sell
fishly influence loans to their own
enterprises; or, in time of stress,
provide help to favored companies,
while sacrificing those not taken in
to the agreement. This, in brief,
may be regarded as fair description
of the Money Trust
Wall Streets Grip on Bank Funds.
Then, what is the relation of
banking reform to the Money
Trust?' Whether this statement as
to the methods and character of the
Money Trust is extreme, 1t is OBJ
vious that the normal business of
the country in buying and selling
staple goods ought to be protected
from any sinister financial DONNA
ton by immediate and suitable legis-
lation. Then, we ask. would Ma
tional Reserve Association give this
protection? The vast mass of local
loans the country over is based on
the production of staple goods and
their distribution to the consumer.
On the other hand, as things now
go, our banking system encourages
the flow of surplus funds to finan-
cial centers where they can be used
in speculation, or in furthering great
promotions.
which should be favored? There
can be no doubt as to the answer.
The essential purpose of the National
Reserve Association is to separate
these two kinds of operations, and
to favor pre-eminently loans to those
doing a strictly commercial business,
as opposed to speculation and pro-
motions. AS a basis for loans, there
is a.yast difference, as;affectins the
permanent prosperity Of the conn
try. between commodities passing
from the producer to the consumer,
and the investment securities in cap
italized form Of the organizations
producing the commodities. Loans
supported BY the former are short
time and commercial; those support
ed BY the latter are Of longtime
and investment character. The
Money Trust is concerned with the
latter, the National Reserve Associa-
tion with the former This is the
crux Of the whole matter. The more
II is disclosed that the loanable funds
Of the country are used to support
investment loans, the more reason
there is for the protection Of COM
mercial loans and the enactment Of
the National Reserve Association.
