Washington Letter,
BY Edward Keating,
Congressman-at-Large
From Colorado.


bill will become law in practic-
ally the form in which it passed
the House. l have made this
same prediction in these reports
heretofore and since returning to
Washington can see no reason
for changing my views.
This does not mean that the
Senate will not amend the House
bill. AS a result of honest ex-
aminatio, and discussion. the
measure can and undoubtedly will
be strengthened. But the vital
features must be retained.
These vital features may be
briefly summarized as follows:
The national banks must be
subject to governmental control,
and that control must be absolute
not. divided.
The right to make money is a
sovereign power and can never be
delegated to an individual or
group of individuals.
The bank reserves should be
used to transact the business OF
the country and not to finance
Safeguarding compaigns on
Wall Street.
The power to manufacture
apanics, which is now possessed
by a few New York financiers,
must be destroyed.
When the farmers and other
: business men Of this country are
unable to secure from the banks
the money needed to finance the
legitimate operations OF their
business, the government should
be in position to step in and
relieve the stringency.
These are the vital features of
the Wilson-Bryan currency bill.
They would be the vital features
of any currency bill drafted in
the interest of all the people and
not of privileged. few. With
out them currency bill would
he toothless and therefore worse
than useless.
Why should any honest banker
wish to devitalize this bill? The
honest banker, if he is intelli-
gent, knows he has nothing in
common with the financial buc-
cancers of Wall Street. He re-
presents the solid constructive
forces in the community; they
represent the unstable forces.
The two can no more mix than
can oil and water.
In the face of these facts we
find many honest bankers ac-
cepting the views of Wall street
as gospel truth and asserting
with much earnestness that the
IWilson- Bryan bill is socialistic,
populistic and many other things
too dreadful to mention. -e-s
In most cases when these hon.
est bankers are pinned down it
is found that they have not stud
led the bill and that they have
taken their views, predigested,
from the clever gentlemen who
are employed by the big Wall
street houses to mould public
opinion.
It is most significant that dur
ing all this currency fight Wall
street has never dared to enter
the arena of debate in it's own
proper person. Its favorite role
has been that of friend and
champion for the country bank

Aacted the part that at times there

feel that it is my duty to do
what l can to assist in restoring
industrial peace in Colorado.
The State authorities having ap-
parently exhausted their powers
in a vain endeavor to bring the
coal operators and striking coal
miners to basis of settlement,
l am going to see what the Fed
eral authorities can do. l may
not be able to accomplish very
much. but it is at least worth a
trial.
Industrial wars of the kind
now being waged in Colorado
have become old-fashioned. In
dividuals, states and nations are
coming to recognize the fact that
strikes are economic blunders.
If these blunders only affected
those directly concern d, we
might keep hands off and permit
them to continue to pummel each
other to their hearts content. but
there is a third party to all these
conficts-the people Of the COM
munity-a and that third party is
beginning to insist that its inter-
ests must be considered.
Already, as a result OF the
strike, the price Of coal has been
advanced. That means that ev-
cry pocketbook in Colorado will
be subjected to an extra strain
this winter. In addition hum
dreds Of men who never saw a
coal mine are threatened with
idleness because the enterprises
which employ them may be un-
able to secure the needed fuel.
Surely the people Of the State
should have s,me voice in adjust
ing a dispute which so intimately
concerns their welfare! :.
The operators say they have
nothing to arbitrate, while the
strikers insist they are willing to
submit their claims to an impair
tial tribunal. Without attempt
ing to pass on the merits or the
controversy at this time i think
we can all agree that Colorado
wants the strike settled without
unnecessary delay. III can be

MRS. McGILL
BROKE DOWN
Gives the Real Facts In Regard to
Her Case and Tells dow She
Suffered.

Jonesboro, Ark-"T suffered q COM
plete break down in health, some time
ago." writes Mrs. A McGill, from this
place. 'T was very weak and could
not do any work. I tried different
remedies, but they did me no good.
One day, got bottle Of Cardui. Il
did me so much good, was surprised,
and took some more.
Before I took Cardui, I had headache
and backache, and sometimes would
cry for hours. Now I am over all that,
and can do all kinds Of housework. I
think it is the greatest medicine on
earth"
In the past fifty years, thousands of
ladies have written, like Mrs. McGill,
to tell of the benefit received from
Cardui.
Such testimony, from earnest women,
surely indicates the great value Of this
tonic remedy, for diseases peculiar to
women. Are you a sufferer? Yes?
Cardui Is the medicine you need.
We urge you to try 1t.

A schoolmaster in a certain coun-
try school who happened to have red
hair was giving an ohject-lesson to
his class on a nut. In describing
the difference between a hazeI-nut
and other nuts he held one up to
view, asking: What kind of nut is
this?" at the same time putting his
pencil to his head while waiting for
an answer. Suddenly there came the
reply: "a monkey-nut, sir"

The latest use of the cinematograph is
to provide living targets. Those prac-

they are shown on the screen. To quote
an official description, Every time you

and the passage of the bullet through IT
Is shown by hole of light; then the pic

the rifle is caught by microphones sus-
pended above the target, and the sound
is conveyed to the cabin In which the
picture operator works, actuating a relay
instrument, which is connected with the
picture machine and momentarily checks
the passage of the film.
The disappearance of the shot holes in
the screens is caused by a kind of triple

which the pictures are thrown, are two

UNDERWOoD,s sAGACITY

From the New York Post.
Congressman Underwood emerges from
the tariff fight in the House with a
heightened reputation for. legislative sa-
gacity and skill. His management of the
bill was so fair as we'll as adrot that
even his republican and progressive op-
no ground for complaint. 1t is now evil
dent that his asking the democratic eau
Gus to thresh the whole bill out In ad-
vance was a master stroke. In that way
differences in the party were debated and
voted to a settlement, so that, once in the
House, the bill had virtually united
democratic support, and all the obiecting
and moving of amendments were left to
the republicans. This tended to its easy
and swift passage. In his closing re-
marks, Mr.. Underwood indulged in no
boastng, but spoke quietly of his hope
that the new tariff would be help in
cutting down the cost of living, while
putting manufacture on a competitive but
secure basis. Just one note of warning
did Mr.. Underwood sound. 1; was that If
any employers proceeded to reduce wages
on the pretense of being compelled to do
SO by the new tariff, the government
would at once use its power to investi-
gate the question and find out whether
there was any justification for the step.
This is in line with what Secretary Red

skeletons of young women and thefN
found the grave of another girl who had
been stunned and buried alive. Some
thing in the nature of the soil had pre-
vented decomposition, although she hae
been there several months, and the doc
tors were able to determine the nature
of her death.
W hen these facts were known the au.
thorities began to hear from servan&
girls who had narrowly escaped the
clutches of shis human hyena. 1t wasv
soon established that Dumollard had
made a regular business of going toI
Lyons and telling his plausible story tel
servant girls. His favorte place of op-(
Grafton was the bridge, and from Thu
structure he had thrown three girls intkl
the river beneath, after tearing theirt
clothes from them. Three other glrlA
had accompanied him to Moatluel, at dif4
ferent times, lured by his descriptions
OF that noble chateau and its generoud
mistress. but they had baked at accom-
panying him on long walk in the darR-|
ness, and thereby saved their lives :
The purpose of this murderer is asY
much a mystery as ever, for he made no
effort to profit by his crimes but stored
all the clothing and trinkets he stole in
his house. Servant girls were his only
prey, although when his fame as mon
ster was established every mysteriolts
crime that had occurred in wears was
charged up to him. When everything
was summed up 1t was believed that his
victims numbered Is. Dumollard refused
to give any information. To his last mo-.
ment he stuck to a foolish story which
was his defense in court to the effect
that he had been employed by two
strangers to engage girls for them. That
he turned the girls over to them and
didn't know what happened to them.
He was sentenced to death, and his
wife to 20 years Imprisonment at hard
labor. After his sentence, and while
waiting his doom, desperate efforts were
made to secure a confession. Priests la
bored with him night and day, but all
In vain. He told the same old story
over and over. His chief concern during
his last days was a fear that he would
catch cold. He was always complaining
of draughts and begging the turnkeys tr
plug up chinks In the windows and door
Even on his way to execution. in a pri-
son van, he was greatly worried lest the
cold wind would strike in to his lungs.
The whole countryside was there to see
him suffer. Every tree, every housetop.
swarmed with human beings. He went
to his doom Jauntily, remarking that he
always did hate an east wind. The blade
descended and put an end TO all his un-
easlness concerning la grippe. His body
was buried and his head was sent to a
scientific Institution.
Thus perished a human wolf whose
achievements made the record Of our
own Mrs. Gnnness seem trifing.
