BY GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, Aug2.-Twenty-fve to fifty million
dollars of government funds will be deposited in the
national banks of the South and by Secre
of the Treasury McAdoo to facilitate the movement
crops Federal State and Municipal bonds and prime

money which the banks will pay per interest
The motive OF Secretary McAdoo in establishing this
policy is anticipate the money strngency in the late
summer and fall which accompanies the marketing and
movement of crops intends minimize tightness

money stringency to cause finan
cial crisis which would "teach" the
people by ian object lesson" that
the Sherman Silver law must be re-
pealed, The times soon became so
distressing that a special session of
Congress was convened and the
Sherman law repealed in n few
days.
The charge of Secretary McAdoo
that the banks are again conspiring
against the presidents currency
program by depressing the value
of currency bonds thus has fam
iliar sound. The evident intention
is according to McAdoo to frighten
the country bankers into opposition
to the currency bill by convincing
them that the measure will injuHe
these bonds and cause losses to the
banks.
But even as President Wilson has
routed the tariff lobby, he can pre-
vent any such conspiracy from be-
ing successful. Chairman Robert l.
Henry, Of Texas has pointed out
the way.
Have the Banking Committee in
vestigate, urges Mr. Henry. Call
the New York bankers as witnesses
and grill them thoroughly so that
the people may know the facts.
1t is to be hoped that the House
will take this action. Many Repub.
licans are criticisng the number of
Democratic Investigations. Had
there been tariff and banking in
vestigations in 1893 a different leg
islative story might have been
told. And present day investiRa-
tions may yet insure the passage of
the administrations most import
ant measures.

MEXICO BIDS FOR HER FATE

The time is near at hand when this
nation must intervene in Mexican
affairs. The situation was very
nearly unbearable when ir first
began to be evident that American
citizens cannot safely appear in
that country, but the unbearable
situation came desperately close to
the breaking point when the Mex
leans shot an American Federal
official engaged in the discnal gre of
his duty in that country. That
was pushing long continued pat
fence SC far thar something is very
likely to snap.
There is theory among civilized
nations that each one 10 responsible
for the safety of its citizens wher-
ever they may roam. Uncle Sam
cannot forget this rule even in the
interest Of the peace he desires.
He cannot forget it because even if
he should other nations would not
forget it concerning their own citi-
zens and if there is to be interven-
tion it must come from country or
else the Monroe Doctrine must be
considered p dead letter.
We fear that the Mcxicans are
rushing upon their own undoing.
rhe United States does net desire
a protectorate over Mexico, nor
does it yearn for annexation, but
if the people down there cannot in
some way be inoculated with a
greater wisdom than they now pos
sess to, one or both of these ends
the situation is likely to come

Washington, Aug, Twill the
history of tho Second Cleveland
administration repea. itself in the
present administration? Will the
Wall Street banks by conspiring to
bea. down the value of the two per
cent government bonds succeed in
blocking the currency legislation,
Just as they are charged with hav-
ing conspired in 1893 to have their
way about the repeal of the Sher-
man Silver law?
Certainly there is striking simi-
larity of events in the present ad-
ministration and its Democratic
predecessor, the Cleveland admin
istration which hogan on March a,
1898. Then, as now, the two great.
est issues confronting the new pre-
sident were tariff and currency.
Then as now, the special interests
swarmed down upon Washington to
defeat the will Of the people. In
, 1893 the special interests we're
successful. Will they be in 1918?
On the tarff the question seem to
be already answered. The keen
sighted and courageous position
taken by President Wilson toward
the tariff lobby completely clipie ed
the claws of that dangerous influ-
ence and there now seems to be a
little doubt that the tariff bill
which will be passed will express
thS presidents ideas on this i'm
pohs@t subject. But is tho admin
istf%tion now preparing TO profit by
the experience of the Cleveland
administration with respect to cur
rency legislation?
II is charged and believed by
such Democrats as Senator Thomas,
of Colorado, that the New York
banks deliberately conspired by de-
pressing securities and creating

MARKET REPORTS
LOS ANGELES PRODUCE

Los Angeles, Oct. 16-Tomatoes
were still very scarce yesterday on the
Los Angeles produce exchange, the
lowest price to the local trade being
about Toe a lug. Fancy shipping
stock went for as high as 81 and deal
ers said that it was hard to get
enough to fill standing orders. Peas
were a little cheaper yesterday than
they have been, but there was not a
liberal supply on the market and they
moved we'll at from 61ac to SC pound.
Cucumbers have fallen off in their
supply and for this reason there is the
high price of 90c lug on the fancy
shipping stock. Other grades not so
good sell for less, but all sucumber
quotations are much higher than they
were two weeks ago.
Sweet potatoes are plentiful at the
present time and some of the best sold
yesterday for $3.50 for sack con-
tanning more than a hundred pounds.
Other potatoes are firm and onions
are the same. Increased receipts of
northern cabbage have eased the mar
ket an dyesterday it brought from
2Bc to 2Ac a pound. Fruit prices
We're practically unchanged.
There were no sales of any sort
on the exchange so that all
prices there We're left the same as on
the day before. Eggs are still very
firm and storage stock is being used
in large amounts to meet the demand.

In line with the "next year" song of
the diamond, take a look at the honor
able golf situation. In June anyone
who suggested that a real rival to
Jerome Travers might be developed
would have been candidate for the
nearest padded CELL October rolls
around and Travers' master has ap-
parently developed. Young Francis
Ouimet has had his fling in the pa
pers as the saviour of his country
in trouncing Vardon and Ray in the
opening championship, but he has yet
to beat Travers in the national anna
teur.
1t is rare combination to find
man who is master of both medal and
match play, but Ouimet is all that. He
is steady as a clock. He failed to Hf5
Travers' title at Garden City this
year, but Jerry will have a real
match on his hands when he is called
to defend the championship again.
Looking over the sport field, there is
apparently nothing that American
athletes could not take up and beat
the fathers of the sport within a few
years. Golf is comparatively new in
this country, and yet player has
been developed in Ouimet who defeat
ed the best England, a veteran of so
years at golf, had to offer The game
is growing in popularity by leaps
and bounds. 1t isn't a freak growth,
but steady climb that will stick.
When you get game in which a
son, father and grandfather can meN
on equal terms, it might be broadly
considered as somewhat of a sport.
Such is golf. No better example of
the possibilities golf holds out could
be found than that presented during
the playing of the senior champion
ship at Rye, New York. There Justice
Pitney of the U. S. supreme court,
railroad magnates, and Just ordinary
citizens met in open competlnSu. A
contestant must be over SJ years of
age to enter the tournament. The
sensation of the play was a man 50
years old.
Alexander Milne of New York was
the man. In 1917 he competed for the
town medal Of Montrose, Scotland
For A years he did not play golf at
all. Then he "came back" and turned
in score that mode some of the
younger players look to their laurels.
Apparently you are never too
young to get the golf bug, and never
too old. A game of that sort is likely
to live for while. Going at the rate
the United States has travelled in 25
years of golf, there is every reason to
believe the greatest players of the
world are yet to be developed on our
soil.

weak. Egyptian corn is again quoted.
Mill feeds are steady. No further
