THERE Will EPLENTYO GOLD
GiUe Calamity HouOLer Forbes vacation
and us a rest for the balance of the summer.
We are tired of his pessinisrn.
Why fight the Administration, when he
must use methods that are "below the belt?'
One day he claims that the banks of the
country can't supply the West and South Nth
money to n1OUe the splendid crops that are in
sight. The next day he claims that the Ad-
n1inistratton WiU run all the gold to Europe
because it has provided enough emergency
currency to nloUe these crops.
He knOuOS you can't legiSlate gold into
America, and that the only Uay to force it here
IS by sending grain and cotton to Europe
This is the Eaw of economics.
He knotUS that the grain of the West and
the cotton of the South haze brought gold to
America whenever it was claimed that there
was shortage of gold Neither the gamblers
of Wall Street nor the political party in control
of the Government eUer forced the gold to
come back.
IF Mr.. Forbes wiN ego way back and sit
dotUn" at some sanitarium, regulate his EUer,
and stay there until the crops are harvested
and Europe's gold put on shipboard for
America, then Mr.. Forbes can go and count
the yeLLow piles that are Visible in the banks of
America to the credit of our people, and re-
porting tOhat he finds, he WiN become an opti-
mist and helper like other Uriters

Des Moines. Jan. members of the

the fact that the railroads themselves
are seeking to take some of the kinks
out of their complicated and some
times absurd freight rate schedules, as
shown by the notice given that on Feb
13 next the Rock Island will remove
one discrimination against freight
destined for Iowa points. The dis
elimination affected it's own business
alone but necessarily had marked
effect on great deal of shipping into
Iowa. The compan" 20 ives freight
for Iowa points from the east at four
places. It added an arbitrary charge
OF l cent hundred when the entry was
thru either Kcokuk. Clinton or Bur

Island and Davenport. This was on
goods from east of Illinois. Now this
arbitrary charge is to be eliminated. II

eighteen months ago and 1 find that IT
Is a difficult task. 1t is hard to realize
that so much has been done in so short
time The number of new buildings
in the business district is astonishing.
They are regular buildings, too. l have
visited many cities in the east recently
but none the size Of Des Moines car
compare with the old town when Il
comes to building activities.
Conservative estimates place the
amount of building done in Des Moines
during the year just closed at nearly
S6.O00,000. That estimate is unusually
low, as it is practically impossible to
get into touch with all the building that
has been done in the outlying districts.
