our father, and went to his re-

honest colly election law, safe
guarding the rights Of the peo-
pie He was an honorable, high
minded old gentleman, being
70 years Of age. Peace to his

A bill changing the time of
voting on United States Senator
has been introduced. Under the
present law United States sen
ator is voted for at the Novem-
Der general election. The pro-
posed law changes this to Au-
gust primary. Under the law
it will become the duty of each
representative and senator to
vote for the man who receives
the largest vote in his country or
district regardless Of politics.
The candidate receiving the larg-
est number of votes from the
members Of the legislature will
be elected. A candidate may
receive the largest popular vote,
but not having carried counties
and districts he will not win.
In this way voters Of large cities
are prevented from combining
and clecting a Senator. Candi-
dates for representative and sen
ator are supposed to sign a
pledge that they will vote for
the man their county or district
endorses.
The House has adopted a res
olution barring all lobbyists and
agents OF corporations from the
floor; also a resolution seeking

Reciprocity for Loss Of

BOSTON. July 17-Governor Foss
Of Massachusetts, who recently an
uounced that a corporation in which
he was interested would be moved to
Canada because Of the Governments
policy on reciprocity, has made pub
Tic a second statement, giving a list
Of corporations that moved across
the border because Of tariff condi-
tons In part he says:
The movement is going on quietly.
Among the big corporations which
have built plants in Canada are the
General Electric Company, the West

Harvester Company, the American

possible, for in many instances the

not announced and not made a mat
ter Of official record. I find that up
TO January l, 1913, approximately 175
American companies had established
themselves.
The American Blower Company,
the principal competitor Of the B. F.
Sturtevant Company, built a great
plant at Windsor, Ont, two years ago.

The recorded amounts Of capital
invested in the American factories
across the border is $279,O0O,OOO
TN many instances the plants
which our manufacturers are estab-
fishing in Canada are directly owned
and financed by the parent concern in
this country, and in some instances
even the pay roll is met by weekly
shipments OF funds from the American
parent concern to its branches in Can
ada.
u believe it conservative to say
that $500. 100000 has been poured
into Canada for the upbuilding Of
plants owned in the United States.
The development of Canada in the
next % years will be greater than
that Of the United States.
Politicians Must Awake
THE trouble with Republicans is
that they are too selfish. The Demo-
Gratis are going to the other extreme
The Democrats are giving away our
markets and getting nothing in re-
turn
Il have received many letters from
business men commencing me for my
frankness, and I believe that my ex-
ample in going to Canada will be fol-
lowed by many others unless the pol
iticians get busy before It is too late"

WHY NOT AN ASSOCIATION OF
AMERICAN SECURITY HOLDERS?

Thousands Of persons of modest
means are now buying good bonds
and stocks instead Of hiding their
savings, placing them in banks at
small rates Of interest or chasing
get rich quick rainbows. This is we'll
-exeelently we'll. The more small
investors we have the greater the
stability Of the Republic. The man
with nothing to lose is apt to olamor
for an upheaval in the hope that, as
he can not be worse off, he may be
better off by the change. The citizen
who has exercised thrift, who has
saved a few hundred or few thou
sand dollars and furnished his quota
of capital for the development Of his
country's resources and the advance
ment of prosperlty-such as one is
less given to revolutionary action.
He will think twice before voting
for destructive politicians or advo-
eating ruinOus legislation.
But without CO. operation, without
united action, without organization,
the small investor is helpless. He is
impotent. He cannot cause his voice
to be heard. And as long as he re-
mains dsfenseless no is in danger of
being imposed upon by both High
Finance and Labor-and also by poll
tieians. Anything calculated to de-
stroy the growing habit OF small
scale investment were a grave ma
tional misfortune. Therefore, lot Sc
ourity holders come together after
the manner of labor. Of bankers, Of
lawyers, of doctors, of manufacturers,
Of merchants, and protect themselves
against injustice. They are entitled
to demand fair consideration. At
by finaneiers and by employees.
present they are too often overlooked
The new system Of arbitration
should, if mPartiaIly executed, make
for industrial peace. The arbitrators
should not be allowed to forget that
CONSUMERS, THE PUBLIC, in the
end foot all bills, and that capital
lists and workers are not the only
ones TO be considered.
Politics should play no part In the
fixing Of awards.

that during 1912 there were SIS ar
rests. of which 1856 were for drunk

Society of Newport
Shuns Rag Dances

NEWPORT, July 17.-From a va

dances are quietly falling into disre-
pute among the smart set and are
being gradually abandoned in favor
of the old straight" dancing.
At the dinner dances given here this
season there has been a marked ten
dency among the young married set,
as well as those unmarried, to dance
IN more decorous fashion than dur
ing the past season.
