SMASH The MONEY TRUST

The extraordinary revelation of
]. Pierpont Morgan Morgan's power
over twenty-five billion dollars OF
wealth in this country brings an
acute consciousness of the need
for some reform of our banking
system which will check the enor-
nous concentration of wealth in
New York. Gotham Is our great
est commercial city. and there must
always be more wealth there SO
long as it holds that comma nding
system. That TIE amount Of wealth
which is concentrated there is no
disproportionate to the city's i'm
portance in the financial scheme
is due to our antiquated banking
system. under which stocks and
bonds are preferred to commercial
paper as a basis of credit, and un-
der which the idle funds Of country
banks flow to Wall street for spec
ulative uses Mr.. Morgan regards
the enormous power vested in him
as a personal trust, but we OBJ
serve that he has administered ii
to his personal profit. He has never
been dishonest about it. We can
hardly say he has been unpatriotic
about it. He has merely taken
advantage of the weakness of cur
banking system. 1t is time to re-
form that system SO that Morgan g
Will become an impussibility-

INVESTIGATION
BY COMMISSIONERS


Chief Deputy Sheriff Larry Flan-
nagan and Deputies Stewart ana
Hess have received warrants from
the county commissioners allowing
| them salaries for the first th1r-
| teen days of January only. The
services performed by them during
the rest of the month, the commits
sioners hold, will not be paid Tor
| by the county. The Progressive
commissioners feel just as Govern
or Lister does towards the public's
employees. They must make good
and earn the pay they draw. 1t Is
learned by investigation upon the
part of the commissioners that
the sheriff's deputies do not work
in harmony with other officials and
do not earn the salaries they have
been drawing-hence, their being
cut off at the pockets.
The sheriff-county attorney con-
| troversy is to have a hearing be-
| fore the county commissioners, and
| it is to be hoped that Commission
ers Legoe and Kemper will agree
with Commissioner Shagren that
grand jury should be called to in
vestigate the squabble and any
other matter that needs the search
| light thrown on it. Shagren wants
| the grand jury. Legoe is non
committal and is not saying how he
stands on the proposition. He has
asserted that the method OF sum-
moning a grand jury in this state
is one that makes it difficult to
secure an impartial and an
efficient jury. Kemper has OPEN
" stated that he believed that the
commissioners had sufficient author
ity and judgment to decide the mat
ter and that he did not believe the
grand jury to be necessity.
No definite announcement as to
what course they would pursue has
been given by the commissioners,
but after talking with Sheriff Thorn
as and Chief Deputy Flanagan on
Tuesday. the board expressed will
ingness to have the matter tnvesti-
gated and the blame placed where
ever it belonged.

considerable indignation atm on
days session when he referred to
the allegations that have been made
to the effect that the commission
ers were not willing togive the
sheriff a square deal. He asserted
that the board had always been
ready to do the fair thing by eve
ry one and that anyone who stated
that the board had refused Sheriff
Thomas a hearing was liar.
Sheriff Thomas and Chief Depu-
ty Flanagan appeared before the
board of commissioners Tuesday,
when the sheriff said: Il defy

Call That Jack Welcomed,

A man-o'warsman, on visit to his
native city Of Liverpool, gave an anus
ing instance Of the readiness and re-
source Of naval seamen. He had made
an arrangement at Portsmouth to meet
chum from his own ship, but he had
forgotten the number Of the house, and
he did not care to knock at every door
until he came to the right one. A rag
and-bone man with a bugle passed
along. Jack seized the bugle.
I'm looking for a chum." he ex-
planned.
Then he blew the grog call of the
navy. AS the last note died away q
window was hastily flung up and sail
or's head was thrust out.
"Ah," said Jack, as he handed back
the bugle, II knew I'd find him. He's
never missed that call yeti"
And a few minutes later the sought
for tar explained sorrowfully to his
chum:-

Fairness Wins,

That it pays to be fair with en-
ployes was illustrated recently in tho
New York financial district. A young
man who had worked for q large
house for three years was forced to
remain at home two uays because OF
illness. He had never been absent
from his desk day during the entire
time, not even for summer vacation.
Nevertheless. when he received his
salary envelope the amount OF two
days pay had been deducted.
The boy was indignant and resigned
on the spot The following day he
closed q deal involving 100000 which
would have meant clear profit OF
$4,000 to the firm he had Just left
The young man turned the business
over to a rival house and was given q
position. His contract calls for double
the salary he had received at the old
house and stipulates that he is to re-
ceiye one months vacation each sum-

POULTRY CO0Ps OF PAPER
Successful Fancier Declares They Are
as Warm as Others That Are
Built of Wood.

Everybody in Marblehead. Mass,
knows Frank Brown. Although his
business is that of grocer, he keeps
poultry on the side, and is especially
enthusiastic over flock of games. one
pullet having laid 1876 eggs in nine
months. Mr.. Brown keeps his pet
birds in little house in the rear of
his store, but most of his hens are
kept on a half-acre of ledge on which
a little soil appears in patches. He
also has ducks and geese and pigeons.
A large number of the fowls are sue
cessfuly kept in houses made of paper.
In the coolest weather the hens live
In these houses and seem as comfort
able as those in the frame building.
These houses are long enough to be
divided into several pens. One of
them has been in use seven years.
In making these houses light frame
ls put up and poultry wire is stretched
tightly over it and heavy tarred paper
laid over the wire. The paper is given
a heavy coat of paint inside and out.
The outside color is red, but white Is
used inside to enhance the light.
Being In the heart of the town, night
prowlers are to be looked for, but any
activity on their part during the sum-
mer Is prevented by the presence of
Mr.. Browns son, who has tent in
one corner Of the half-acre, where he
spends the night. His sleep Is seldom
disturbed. except when he finds it nee
essary to get up and shoot few rats.
In his war on these pests he Is aided
by nimble Irish terrier.
Both Mr.. Brown and his son say that
PAPER houses for poultry are a distinct
success. There is seldom frozen
comb, even when the mercury drops
below the zero mark, and the hens lay
we'll. The houses are so tight that an
opening has been made above each
window, which is covered with bur
lap, for ventilation.
Mr.. Brown matches several thousand
chicken each season, all of them in
incubators. These machines hold be-
tween 200 and 800 eggs each. Hot wa
ter supplies the heat, and gas heats
the water.

Horrible Example,

Nat Goodwin was on tour.
Seats were selling like hot cakes.
Mr.. Goodwin was down in the foyer
watching the weather. A thin-visaged
woman with athrottle-hold on her purse
minced up to the window and bought
one ticket for the matinee.
AS she passed out, counting and re-
counting her change, the woman over
heard an acquaintance of Mr.. Good
wins calling him by name.
The woman looked them both over
with close scrutiny. Then she went
back to the box office.
"Is that Mr.. Goodwin" she de-
nanded.
YES"
"Mr. Nat C. Goodwin"
"Yes."
"The man who plays in this play I've
just bought ticket for?"
"Yes!"
"All right" said the woman. She
stopped, probed the Businesses of her
reticule, pulled out her newly secured
ticket and pushed it back reluctantly
through the window. "If you're sure
that's Mr.. Goodwin" remarked the
woman, "you can take that ticket right
back and give me an orchestra seat as
far front as you can get it-no, give
me two orchestra seats and give them
to me for tonight. For If that's Nat
