WHEN President Wilson ordered
the secretary of the treasury to an
nounce that from s25, OO0, 600, 600 TO
$50, 900, 900 would be deposited by the
government in the banks of the South
and West, with which to move the
crops if that much were needed, he
made a big hit with the farmers.
Heretofore under the republican rule,
Wall street would squeal about short
age of money, and then large sums
would be deposited by the federal
government in the Wall street banks.
and then they would lend the money
TO the western and southern banks
which in turn would loan it for crop
moving purposes. Under the Wilson
method they get the money without
paying tribute TO Wall street. We
are not apt to hear of any more tight
ness about moving the large. crops of
this year.

replied the officer.
Wilfrid was parting with hard
earned. proudly-prized savings, but he
felt like a royal kind as the trans
action was completed. slanting plat

delivered into his keeping.
The officer wiped away suspicious
moisture from his eye as the little
girl threw her arms around the neck
of the snowy white animal, cried over
her recovered pet, and then laughed
for joy.
1t was only ten miles back to her
home. Wilfrid led SNOWFALL with a
halter. Part Of the way the girl rode
on her back.
Somehow the people of the town
found out wat the strange procession
meant. An enterprising reporter Gag
erly gathered up the material for a
good story, and when Wilfrid LETT the
happy child and her pet at their home,
the wires were clicking an incident
of rare human interest all over the
country. The afternoon papers had it,
including the Brandon Evening Tele-
gram.
Il told you Wflfrid was worth while.
l knew he had the making of a grand
man in him-and what do you say
now, Daniel Brackett?' demanded Miss
Cynthia at the Bracket home at eight
o'clock that evening. She pointed to
the newspaper she had brought with
her on her impetuous, unceremonious
visit

You start right out finding him,

you again"
mo need, father! Miss Parker!"
cried CHEEKY voice, and the boy in
question burst into the room
The warm. fatherly greeting made
everything all right, but it was the
emotional Miss Cynthia who caressed
Wilfrid and wept over him, and was
proud of him for his unselfishness
There's that fifty dollars, father, -
said Wilfrid In a business like way,
placing a roll of bills on the table.
Mr.. Bracket pushed it back sheep
ishly. Miss Lydias eyes twinkled.
Her would-be sutton sided up to her.
THAT question l asked you this
morning, Lydia?" he insinuated
gently.
Miss Warner placed loving arm
about Wilfrid.

said simply.

THE senate has been trying to balk

THE senate has been trying to balk
at the idea of passing currency
measure at this session, but President
Wilson has shown them how earnestly
the public and business world is de-
handing reform at once, so it is quite
certain to pass at this session. The
great "Wall street" banks which
have been controlling the finances of
the country since the war are dying
hard, and they do not like to see
financial supremacy pass out Of their
hands as it will when the new cur
rency bill becomes law. The new
law not only spells doom" for Wall
street control of our finances but it
insures an additional blessing of the
greatest magnitude for the American
people, in that panics will be impos-
sible in the future and there will be
no shortage of money" at crop NOV
ing time, or in any era of unusual
business activity, as the currency will
automatically expand in accordance
with the demands of any and all
sound business.

THE farmers ten miles east of Ma
olson, have organized to kill lion,
which has been growing about the
woods in that vicinity. The animal
has killed two horses and is terror
izing the neighborhood. 1t reminds
us of the time, when a party of men
in Wausau, many years ago, organized
to kill what was thought to have been
mountain lion. The animal had
been seen down at Cedar Creek, and
nights, especially, would brighten the
farmers by his roaring.

gers become offensive to others, the
bell to stop the car should sound
and the offender given the privilege
of usisg the same road the horses
use for making the balance of the
route. The public, when the guests
of the people who operate the in
terurban road have a right to be
protected from the annoyances of
various kinds. One way to get
better conditions is to give the car
men the authority and then tell
them to go az far az they like with
offenders. Judging from the ply
steal stature of some of these new
motormen and conductors, some of
whom look like undiscovered
"white hopes," ringside seats would
be worth having when something
was started.

PROVIDING FACTORY SITES

The Virginia Commercial club
directors will do the best thing the
club had ever done or may do for
long time if it consummates a deal
by which the club will own and
control factory locations. The pro-
position has been considered and
information obtained as to how
they handle the factory induce
ment proposition in various live
cities throughout the country.
Many cities farther removed from
the raw material than is Virginia
aud with railway facilities not as
good have made provision for OBJ
tanning factories and have them in
operation today.
The Commercial club will make
the effort to obtain one or more
forties to be held and placed at the
disposal of factories which will To-
cate at Virginia. The price will be
almost what actual cost to the club
has been. BY this plan the man
who wants the location is protected
from the land owner who would
place fictitious or prohibitive prices
on what he holds. In order to hold
land the club proposes to incorpor-
ate. The plan is the same as has
been worked out and found salts
factory in other places. 1t will
prove satisfactory in Virginia and
1t is doubtful if there is any other
plan which is at all practical to
bring about the desired effect.
1t is logical to assume that Vir

DRASTIC TREATMENT ESSENTIAL

1t has been suggested and the
suggestion may be very timely
one, that the management of the
Mesaba Railway company, the in.
terurban line) arrange to have their
men in charge of their care given
greater police authority, in order
that they may deal summarily with
those who use vile or indecent
language or otherwise misbehave
on the cars of the road. Unless
the railway people keep the situa-
ton controlled and deal with dis
orderly passengers in the same
manner that the police do with dis
orderlies on Chestnut or any other
street, the reputation of the road
will suffer and men will advise
their wives and daughters that
they will be subject to insults and
iudignitities on the care and had
better not patronize them. If in.
cidents that have happened, happen
many times, some man out riding
with his family come day is going
to let go with his fist or his boot
and the jury that hears the evid-
ence later is going to consider it
a case of justifia BILE homocide and
that will be all there will be to it.
When the interurban manage
ment sells a ticket say from Vir
ginia to Chisholm. it also enters in
to an implied contract to protect
the passengers and make them
comforta BILE on the Journey. On in
terurban cars as we'll as elsewhere,
men must respect the rights of
others and not make themselves Of
fensive in any manner whatsoever.
When they become intolerab bic,
quick and decisive action is re
quired and the conductors and
motormen should have authority
to call upon other men to render
assistance. Some of the offenses
complained of are swearing,
abusive and Obscene language and
carrying about an odor that would
almost call for fumigation of the
car after the passenger had occu-
pied a seat for few blocks. Some.
body has suggested that it would
be we'll to inaugurate the "Jim
Grow" seperate coach system. That
probably was not meant seriously
but there is no getting away from
this: When one or several passen.
