Don't Give Up Local Control of
Your Public Roads!

4OUE FRDAEC NO0GRSS
{ CIVILIZATION marches on, carrying the
Federal Government further and further
away from the Constitutional land marks.
The States are the original Sovereigns: the
Federal Government is their handiwork,
made out of such portions of the Supreme
power as the States were persuaded they
could safely spare
In other words, the Federal Government
is derivative, delegated, limited, confined
within the borders of the written concession
made by the States.~~
That written concession, is the Constitution
Of the United States.
And this written concession invariably
refers to the States as 'them!" Never once
does the Constitution call the United States
''it")
Within its concession from the States the
Federal Government is supreme. Outside. it
has no existence at all.
Destroy the Federal Government, and you
would still have As States, intact. sovereign,
equal, independent.
Destroy the States, and the Federal Gov
eminent vanlshes, as the tree dies when the
roots are cut.
Here of late, the fanatics Of Centralisn
and Militarism and Corporationisln seem hell
bent on grasping all the reserved rights of
the States, and building an Empire more
imperial than that of Germany
They have snatched the control of the State
Militia from the hands Of the governors and
other State authorities.
The Constitution Of the United States
expressly reserves to the States the control Of
their local militia, but the military Gesszers'
haze set Up their hats, and the State GettAor5-
ties are on their Knees to THIS t2tYGqaysy of the
brass betttoa8.
Under one pretext and another, the Fede-
raj Government spies on private business,
confiscates private property, and interferes
with private families.
No man may shoot a wild duck, or wild
crane: the Federal Government forbids it.
The duck may be travelling from Canada to
Florida, engaged IN Interstate Commerce,
carrying fertilizer from State to State
Hence, no citizen of any State may modest
it.
The Constitution gives Congress the power
to regulate commerce between the States: the
Wlld-foWl are engaged III commerce between
the States: therefore, Congress may regulate
the wild -fowl-and to regulate means to pro-
tect.
The Magi who passed that fool law came
from the last, also from the South likewise
from the North and West.
Fortunately for mankind, the modern Magi
can come from any direction.
But the latest reachout for more power,
offices and salaries reveals itself in the agony
for Good Roads. This agony is acute. It
demands that you promptly and cheerfuIly
submit to heavier taxation, and at the same
time surrt&ader your control of your dirt
roads!
Where are they to get the huge sums of
money they propose to spend on the officials
who boss YOUR highwayS9
Ont Of y0u! Where else can thew oct It?

OFFERS SOLUTION OF
CURRENCY PROBLEM
Berry on Stand Before House Cur
rency Committee

Washington, January 2S-The issue OF
paper legal tender, based on government
state and municipal bonds, and backed by
gold reserve of at least 20 per cent
was recommended as a solution of the
currency problem of w. II. Berry, former
state treasurer of Pennsylvania, on the
stand today before the currency commit
tee of the House.
Mr.. Berry told the committee that the
evi, of the present system was an insult
iicient supply of legal tender reserve 70
support the extended credit demanded by
business interests of the country.
''The banking laws are responsible for
the accumulation of money in the reserve
Cities" he said. 1.-THE law allowing the ac-
cumulation of millions of money in these
reserve cities is responsible A lack of
cash in reserve restricts the banks in the
credit they can allow, and this inevitably
results in discrimination as to bor-
rowers. So long as this situation obtains
there will be a money trust"
A chart, produced by Mr.. Berry. pur-
ported TO show that panics followed an
expansion of credit to a point where il
vas beyond the support of the available
cash reserves.
That is the situation now" he con-
tinued. THE credits granted have been
extended to a point where the reserves
are but So per cent of the outstanding
obligations of the banks. Unless these re-
serves are extended in some way panic
inevitably will follow. That So per cent
Y as about the breaking point of 1907, and
a panic is now threatened. We have too
reuch credit for the cash in hand and
100 little credit for the needs of the coun-
try"
Mr.. Berry proposed making the bank
rote circulation legal tender, and forcing
tanks to surrender bonds upon which they
issued these notes. Under examination
by the committee he said he believed
that gold reserve of at least 20 per
cent of the current legal tender would
support the issue.
Mr. Berry declared himself opposed tc
the AIdrich currency plan, and insisted
f;lat the present currency system is re-
n onsible for the money trust ''stoch
exc hange gambling and 'the unemploy-
ment that follows restricted industrial ac-
tisity.'

department in 1912, 81 of these patients

ber nearly three times in excess OF th',
number of patients sent to the depart

tients from jefferson county treated by
the state pasteur department was Is; from
Calhoun, 2s; Mobile, 10; Barbour, 16 Most
of the other counties sent from one to
five patients to the department for treat

According to DIR. Moss the small per-
