The purpose, as / understand
it, of the social service board is
to lure us who are fond of the
sinful but popular dance dali of
the baser sort into finer and
more esthetic atmosphere where
the dignified two-step and the
chaste waltz reign supreme.
Of the tango / wot not. But
common varieties of rag have
seen.
And this, oh, social service
board, L know; so cents admis-
sion is too much. A purely nom-
inal admission fee should be
charged. Then, If you will, sell
tickets at a nickel apiece, each
ticket good for one dance.
We common folks are not as
fond of Raging as you think. But
we want to dance at nickel a
time. You will not reach and
help us, l fear, if you continue to
set us back four-bits a throw.
Four-bits is a pile of money.
Enough! On with the dance;
let joy be unconfined.

this. They said the mayor is a
stubborn, contrary man. It's the
same in his administrative activi-
ties-when the council, for in
stance, dances one way, the may
or is pretty liable to dance the
other. That, at least, is what
they told me.
Colonel Joab seemed more
amenable. He went, amiably and
perspiringly, with the throng.
Between dances he changed col
lars.
The colonel is cute-mighty
cute. One dance ON the program
was q three-step, an intricate
measure. The colonel found a
partner and retired TO the gallery
where, obscured from view, they
practiced the steps.
When the music struck up for
the three-step the colonel and his
partner marched nmcnaIantly out
upon the floor. There were 9TH

pumpkins dancing the three-step.

BEST LOBBY in AMERICA
WORDOF WISE POLITICIAN

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,. June 10.
-"Search the lobby IL you would
find the answer. 1t has been the
best and brainiest lobby ever seen
i'm America, / will admit"
The man who made this state
ment was vigorously protesting
against the passage of the equal
suffrage bill I'm the Illinois legis-
lature> on the day it passed. He
was lie O'Neil Browne, one Of the
men who 'put over" Lorimer.
Praise from him was indeed
praise from Caesar. And the four
women who had furnished the
brains for this brainiest of lob
bies sat in the gallery and smiled.
Browne made one of them smile
again when, in the course of his
speech he said that part of his
prejudice against the bill was due
to heredity.
The lady who smiled the sec
ond time was Mrs. Joseph Medill
Mccormick, the daughter of the
late Senator Mark Hanna. Beside
her in the galleries were Mrs.
Grace Wilbur Trout, president of
the Equal Suffrage league of Him
ois; Mrs. Elizabeth X. Booth,
chairman of that organization
legislative committee, and Mrs.
Antoinette Funk, who described
herself as merely a soldier of
the ranks"
This quartet constituted the
lobby that caused Browne to mar
vel, and the way in which they
worked their bill through the leg
islature is not only credit to
them, but Mrs. Mccormick thinxs
to the brains and passion for or
ganiZation of her father.
The famous card index system
was used by Mrs. Trout and Mrs.
Mccormick and their associates.
Long an ardent suffragist Mrs.
Trout combined her great Xnowl-
edge of the cause with Mrs. Nc
Cormick's ability as a campaign
executive and with Mrs. Funk and
Mrs. Booth these two women
planned a systematic campaign
that just simply had to bring re-
suits.

Dig IOt.
There is positively no doubt
that Wall street deliberately map
ped out a panic to throw some of
it's enemies into bankruptcy and
to give the tariff and currency
reform a black eye. For three
months paid representative of
New York BANKS have been trav-
cling around the country spread
ing alarm among bankers and
dropping hints to companions in
luxurious Pullmans. Trust own
ed newspapers have been follow
ing them up and seconding the
motion by announcing a coming
shortage of money and a country
wide stagnation of business to
result. All this time property
was on a sounder basis than ever
before. Crops, steel production
and exports had broken all rec
ords.
The stock market refused to re-
spond, Wall street sulked, then
planned a panic. 1t sent forth
its agents to scare business men.
Then 1t began to hoard gold until
the money marxet was almost
cornered. New York banks an
nounced that money was scare, at
the same time their vaults were
bulging. One of the loudest of
the howlers had refused it's loans
and increased it's deposits by
weakening securities, until it had
increased its stock of money
nearly $20,000,0O0. The BANK
ers began to refuse loans. Their
allies in other big cities forward
ed them. There was a shortage
of credit but no shortage of
money. Country banks and busi-
ness concerns all over the country
couldn't get money.
A great western railroad with
over 1000 miles of tracks was
thrown into bankruptcy because
Wall street refused to loan il S3.-
100000, a loan that this road
had often flOated without diff
Guilty. Such was the situation on
last Friday, the thirteenth. It
threatened to be a second Black
Friday in the New York stock ex-
change. A panic started, the
stock market was almost I'm chaos.
New York securities had already
reached lower prices than during
the panic of 1907. Three weeks
of this would mean bread lines,
factories closing down and banks
suspending payment of deposits.
Then came the official announce
ment that the bankers no longer
had to look to Wall street.
The United States this year
would, If necessary, issue up to
$5O0,O00,000 in emergency cur
rency under the Aldrich-Vreeland
act to meet any crisis. This
meant a federal war gainst Wall
street. There was no need of the
money after it was offered. One
threat was enough. New York
tbanhs suddenly found millions
and dumped them on the loan
market. The high call loan rate
dropping from 3 to 1 1-2 per cent
was cut in two in few hours

JUDGE DEFENDS
FREEDOM Of

ministration of justice a paper en-
titled 'The Liberty of the Press

Iowa was read to the members of
the National Press association in

Judge Smith said some courts
have undertaken the prerogative
of furnishing newspapers because

The practice is now virtually cl5-
solete. No Judge has ever main-
tanned his dignity by bringing an
editor up for punishment because
of animadversions."

One New York bank reduced its
rates for time money. Offered to
lend freely of it's surplus reserve
of $2S,000,000, and in one day
bought $7,000,000 worth of COM

The day before this bank had
been the loudest calamity howler
about money shortage, Wall
street had been given terrific
beating, and the panic has gone
on over heads like black cloud,
probably for good.
