Washington. The administration
currency, bill was introduced In the
Senate by Senator Owen and In the
House by Representative Glass. The
House Immediately referred the meas
ure to the banking and currency COM
mittee.
Several changes have been made in
the bill as the result of the numerous
conferences In which President Will
son, Democrats Of the House and Sem
ate committees. Treasury department
officials and committees Of bankers
took part following the publication Of
the proposed measure several days
ago, but despite appeals that the fed
eral reserve board to control the pro-
posed new currency system be in
creased, and that bankers be given
representation. no change In this pro-
vision was made. The board will con-
sist OF seven men to be appointed by
the President.
In the Senate, Senator Cummins
contemplated proposing an amend
msnt which would make the board an
elective body.
Reinserted In the bill was the origi.
nal proposition for retiring the pres
emit bank notes. within twenty years
and the substitution of additional fed
eral reserve notes for them. This
eliminates the proposed limit Of $780,
100000 In reserve notes contained In
the bill as originally made public. In
replacing the bank notes the govern
ment two per cent bonds. upon which
they are now issued. would be re-
funded by three per cent bonds with
out the circulation privilege.
Chairman Glass made preparations
for the speedy consideration Of the
bill by the House committee. He OBJ
tanned the passage Of two resolutions
to facilitate the work. One provided
for the printing and distribution Of
$4,000 copies of the new bill The
other. which was adopted after a par
tisan discussion. provided $4,000 for
the payment Of experts to be employed

Declaration Of Principles Should HI

Country.

A declaration Of principles Of d,
Republicans Of the little town
Leoti. Kan. is quoted with apron
by the Kansas City (Mo.) Jourpi
and merits the approval of good R,
publicans everywhere. Here 1t is:
I'VE are Republicans and owe no n
legiance to any man. We are not Tan
men. We are not La Toilette meo
We are neither standpat nor Bul

That is. they are "just RepublA
ans" and 1t is "just Republican,
who are required at the preseu
time.
Those Leoti Republicans are mem
bers Of a party which has been iden.
tiled with the prosperity and progress
of the nation for the past half cen
tury. They have found the principle
Of that party sufficient for them and
for the perpetuation Of representative
institutions and the happiness and
we'll being Of the nation.
Loyal to their party, believing in It
as the best available instrument
through which the continued progress
Of the country may be assured. they
are of the belief that their party
is superior to any man or set Of men
In 1t; that 1t represents the hopes
and beliefs of millions OF Americans
rather than the ambitions and power.
lust of any man or coterie. and. In
that spirit of loyalty and that belief
they support the party and its de
clared principles.
It is that spirit which will reani
mate the Republican party-which is
already terminating 1t. The Republic
an party has today, as It always has
had, an exalted mission. and no tenn
porary check can serve to destroy II
nor to obscure its aims. It represents
the aspirations of the best in the ma
tion, unalterable opposition to the
ories subversivo Ut our republican
form of government. sane progress
and flrm opposition to the vagaries oi
the unthinking. the lawless and the
revolutionary.
1t has no place for the demagogue
the half-baked Socialist or anarchist
or the supreme self-seeker. The mer
who believe in its principles and its
mission will maintain the party In
healthy and beneficially active condi
ton when the present crew OF wreck

ner. 1t is used chiefly to advance run
ners who already are on bases
Bunt and run-The term used to
designate play much used In the
more finished teams. The batters and
base runners exchange signals as the
pitcher starts to deliver the ball, to the
batter. the runner or runners start
for the next base at full speed. The
batter bunts as they go. and If he push
es the ball fair the play obviates the
chance to force the other runners.
The play is extremely dangerous to
bad bunters, as double play is al
most certain If they bunt fly into
the air.

from the coacher's boxes back Of

guide and advise batters and base
