ST. LOUIS AGAINST The SOUTH.

That St. Louis i'm frantic en-
deavor to secure a federal reserve
bank is fighting TO prevent such
a bank being established in any
Southern state, is the conclusion
reached by a New Orleans com.
mittee Of bankers who recently
returned from a visit to several
cities In the South.
"Shut off on the north by
Chicago, on the east by Cincin-
natl, Pittsburg, Philadelphia,
Boston or New York, and on the
west by Kansas City and Denver,
ST. Louis realizes that desperate
measures must be taken TO insure
the establishment Of a federal re-
serve bank in that city,, said
General Manager NJ. B. Trezveant
of the New Orleans Association
of Commerce in an open letter to
to southern interests. "There-
fore her only opportunity for
strengthening contentious is to
claim that the entire south should
be subsidiary to St. Louis.
Should the st. Louis plan pre-
vail, the whole South will be ig-
nored, and while the Atlantic,
the Great Lakes, the Middle
West, the Rocky Mountains and
the Pacific Coast states will be
represented, the Gulf and South
ern states will be denied IA reserve
bank. 1t il pointed out by some
that. totally aside from the merits
OF the case (which are sufficient
in themselves), the Wilson ad-
ministration would not and could
not permit the South TO be so
grossly ignored. 1t WAS the
Democratic votes of the South
in Congress which made the fed
eral reserve bank system a pos
sibility, but under the St. Louis
plan the South would be snubbed
and put in category of unim-
portance. 1t is incOnceivable
that the selfish program deman-
ded by st. Louis will be carried
out by the Reserve Bank Organ.
ization Committee and that the
entire South will be ignored and
merely tied to the kite strings of
a central western city. St.
Louis seems to be in earnest,
however, in her determination to
grab everything in sight, but we
OF New Orleans are equally de-
termined that the South shall not
be carried away by any such
program and we have fully made
up our minds to lead the fight
against st. Louis and her Anti.
Southern attitude, and we stand
unalterably for a reserve bank in
the Southern States. That we
believe such bank should be To-
Gated in the metropolis of the
South, the Gateway to the Mis-
sissippi Valley and the Panama
Canal, may be taken for granted.
We believe that New Orleans
will be selected, but are leaving
nothing to chance, and therefore
we put the entire South on notice
that st. Louis is doing her ut
mot to deprive the South Of rep
resentation, and We call on all
Southern States and communities
to defeat this selfish and unthink-

Clark Howell and the Senate.

The national legislature. narrowly
missed the advantage of adding to its
membership another man of newspaper
training when Clark Howell editor of
the Atlanta Constitution. declined ap-
pointment to the Senate by Gov. Slaton
as successor to the late Senator Bacon.
Mr.. Howell in declining appointment
based his action on the ground that he
was not citizen. Of that section of
Georgia to which. under the customs Of
the. democratic party in Georgia, the
appointment belonged. The offer of the
appointment had the support of in
huential elements in Georgia, irrespec-
tive of. local geography" and was an
appropriate testimonial to the worth
and fitness. of Mr.. Howell for the post.
The offer was proof of the regard in
which his fellow, citizens Of the Empire
state Of the south hold him: Mr..
Howel's refusal to exchange the pen
for the toga does credit to bis sound
judgment. AS editor Of the. Constitn-
ton he can even more effectively serve
the people OF 4his state than he could
in the Senate.

Mercy to Animals.

The spectacle>of prominent woman
making her appearance in the Police
Court as a witness against a cruel driver
of a horse should hearten many of those
persons who see instances of brutality
to animals in the streets. and often pro-
test to or threaten the drivers. but do
not press the matter to a proper conclu-
sion by assisting in the prosecution of
offenders. This should be the attitude
of all friends of useful beasts. 1t would
relieve the misery of many friendless.
hopeless brutes and tend to curb the bru-
tally of some men. The Police Court
provides means for teaching lesson in
mercy to men whose mentality is SO de-
graded or whose sensibilities are so bru-
fish that they need that kind of a lesson.
The Police Court is a place looked on
with unreasoning dread by many per-
sons. The court should not be contem-
plated in such a spirit by any one save
an evildoer. 1t Is a good place to go
when by going one can perform a good
service and a public duty.

Politicians and Entertainers.

How prominent will our statesmen be
IN this years chautauqua field? They
are always welcome. and some are top
liners. Interest attaches to men who in
national executive or legislative work
bear themselves conspicuously and win
applause. Inquiry sets up as to their
appearance. the tone of voice, the style
Of delivery. and all that. They become
what in the world of entertainment is
called an attraction. And. of course.
showmen are always on the alert to sup
ply the demands of their patrons. Hence
the big pay offered to and accepted by
those of our political servants who have
made good in their places.
Some men like the employment. and
give full return for the money they re-
ceivc. They have something interesting
to tell, and know how to tell it. Others
shy at such activity. It is not 90 their
taste and they prefer other means of
adding to their incomes.
Every year brings fresh topics eyensfor
regular entertainers. and this year
topics are numerous. The latest thing
in the tariff, the currency and trust rcgu-
lation; our course toward Mexico; the
opening of the Panama canal, now near
at hand; our present attitude toward our
little brown brothers in the Philippines,
are but A few of the subjects in which
general interest is lively. Men asso-
ciated with what has taken place in those
matters since the chautauqua of last
year closed arc of course. the ones best
prepared to discuss them.
But these men are due on the political
stump this year. and must get into action
there early. If democrats, they are con-
ccrned about the continuation of. party
power. Democratic defeat in November
will spell probably democratic defeat two
years hence. If republicans. they are
concerned about the regaining OF power.
They long to see their party in the donni-
nant position again it long occupied.
If Congress adjourns in early June the
members of that body who figure in the
entertainment world will be able to de-
vote at least two months to the chau-
rauquas. The campaigns will not open
before September, SO that before that
time, If school let's out early, those of
our legislators who now may be holding
lecturing propositions in allegiance will be
able to accept them.
But il Congress gets into a snarl, and
school keeps late. then farewell to those
gate receipts. Politicians cannot serve
both party and ehautauqua where the
duties clash. and party has the call Fol

The Underwood Law.

The new tariff law is under discussion
in Congress, the republicans attacking
the democrats defending. We may expect
occasional engagements of the kind dur
ing the remainder of the session. And
of course, after the session closes and the
congressional campaigns open. We shall
hear a great deal more on the subject.
The prompt action of the democracy on
tariff revision was good politics and good
public policy. 1t had come into power
pledged to the work. 1t had outlined
both in its national platform and its
stump deliverances the line it would take.
In the main it took that line. 1t revised
the duties downward, and revised some
out of existence. The whack it took at
WOO! and sugar was a finisher.
Returns are coming in. and they afford
a legitimate text for discussion. There
are idle industries, and. as consequence.
idle men. Republicans charge the depres-
sion to the new law. The democrats. while
admitting some depression, deny that it
is referable to the law. They profess
complete satisfaction with the Underwood
revision in its first operations.
Not all the existing business depression
is due to the tariff. Some of it proceeds
from anxiety respecting the new cur
rency law. and some from the uncertainty
respecting the outcome of the Presidents
trust program. Business generally is
somewhat bewildered, not knowing where
at present it is at" nor yet where it
may be six months hence. 1t is waiting
for the fog to lift. and fervently hoping
1t may lift soon.
But the democratic leaders should well
come this early discussion of their tariff
law il they feel the confidence in it they
profess. The Mckinley law mad only a
few weeks of trial before the popular
demned at the polls. In November. 1880,
the democrats carried the country over
whelmingly. The German Wilson law
had only few months of trial before
election day, and the republicans swept
everything before them.
Before the voters are asked to pass at
the polls on the Underwood law twelve
months will have elapsed-a sufficient
time for it to have manifested itself If
all is well with the law then. all will be
well with the democracy. But if the cost
of living is still high, and the Treasury IL
running behind. the election returns are
likely to be in favor of the republicans.
Discussion of this subject. in Congress
and out, is entirely legitimate. The law
is ON the books. the country interested
cussion can the truth be brought out.
