The Triumph of The Currency Bill
A Washington dispatch says:


1t was probably the happiest
moment OF President Wilson's life ~
president of the United States, when
he signed the new currency law on
December q. 1t Is needless to say
that this bill is the greatest master
piece of craftsmanship enacted
within the last forty years. Under
the wise provisions Of this bill there
will never be another financial panic
such as we had under Roosevelt In
1907, and under Cleveland (which he
inherited from President Harrlson)
In 1893. In other words this bill will
make money easy and plentiful
everywhere. Whenever bank
has loaned all the money to the bus
mess men of its community that II
can spare, and still have calls for
more loans, the bank can take the
stocks, bonds and mortgages and
other first class securities and turn
them over to the government
regional bank and get more money
with which to accommodate its bOr-
rowers. 1t Is this element In the bill
which will render our currency
elastic 80 that 1t will expand auto
matically in accordance with the
requirements Of business In every
state and county of the United
States.
Immediately after signing the
currency bill the president took the
train for Pass Christian, down on the
Gulf of Mexico, at the southern end
of Mississippi where he can enjoy .
calm and delightful, three weeks
rest in one of the most delightful
spots in the country. The president
has been ION the job" constantly
since he entered the White House
last March and as long as he kept
congress in session through all the
hot summer months he refused to go
of and take a vacation and enjoy
himself, while they were here labor
ously discharging their public duties,
so the president stayed in the harness
with them and the whole country is
wishing President Wilson and con-
gress which is taking 3 three weeks
rest, a delightful vacation and can
say to them, well done, thou good
and faithful servants" OF the people.

G. E. MORTON,
State Dairy Commissioner.

AS previously stated in these COL
umns, Mr.. Baer took action In the
premises before the state authorities
were aware of the fact that any In
fected cows were in his herd, and
had the ones showing the slightest
fever, shipped out Of the county. We
publish the above to show final off,
cial action in the case.
When Mr.. Baer bought the herd in
Iowa, it was inspected before ship
ment in conformity to Interstate in
spection laws; but 1t is probable that
either an incompetent inspector or
a tricky dealer slipped few head in
which were not up to the standard.
In future the Baer dairy herd will be
inspected at stated periods and kept
up to the highest standard.
