WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Although
the twelve Federal reserve banks only
began business yesterday, the Federal
Reserve Board already has before it
plans for widening their field Of opera
tions and increasing their store of
cash.
kilograms began to reach the Treas
ury Department shortly after Secre-
tary McAdoo issued his formal an
'nouncement to the banks to open their
doors. They continued to arrive all
day long, Governors and Federal Re-
serve Agents of all the banks tele-
graphing their congratulations and
their promises Of cooperation in max
ing the system success. No definite
data of the business done was availa-
BILE, but Secretary Willis telegraphed
each bank for an account of it's redis-
count business Of the day, and expect
ed to be able to lay a report before
the board tomorrow. The board may
not be willing to draw any definite
plans from one days business, but the
first week may have a material effect
and may result in augmenting the cash
of the banks by more than $3.50, ,OOO,-
900.
Use More Cash.
The board has under consideration
the deposit of a large part of the loose
cash now in the Treasury and the
transfer of most of the Government
funds now deposited in national banks
Secretary McAdoo has power to make
these changes, but so far has not
reached a decision. If the first week S
rediscount business shows that the re-
serve banks can use more cash, how.
ever, the board probably will suggest
the adoption of the plan. 1t has been
reported to the board that there is
about $11O,0O0,000 in the Treasury
available for this purpose, and that
about $64,000,O0O of the $79.00O,000
now in banks deposit for the Govern
ment could be transferred.

The board last night made public a
circular defining time deposits as in

EATON, O., Nov. 17.-For the pur-
pose Of forming an organization to
work in conjunction with state and
federal authorities, and to protect
against the indiscriminate slaughter
OF live stock, nearly forty of Preble
county's best farmers met Monday
afternoon at Eaton. l. M. Biddinger,
secretary of the Wayne Mutual Insur-
ance company, was named president
Of the organization. John E. Voge, Jr.,
one of the best known horsemen and
stock raisers in the state, was named
secretary.
Many farmers throughout the Coun-
ty did not readily accept the verdict
OF veterinarians who discovered the
existence of foot and mouth disease
in herd at West Alexandria,, and the
announcement that a wholesale
Slaughter would take place created
quite a bit of talk George G.. Sauers,
one of the owners of the infected herd
at West Alexandria,. was in attend
ance at the meeting here Monday, and
before the gathering announced that
the veterinarians vrdict had been &C
cepted by him.
Well known farmers who attended
the meeting and became members of
the organization, admit their appre-
citation of the seriousness of the dis.
ease, but insist that before slaughter
has been made every step be taken to
stablish without doubt the existence
Of the disase. Will the scare Is on.

SELF-SUFFlCIENTF FARMERS

In former times the farm and
farm home were well-nigh self sus.
tanning. They produced, with few
exceptions, all that was needful to
country life in the way Of food, clio,
thing, shelter. and the implements
needful to their production.
A different line of action has
sometimes been proposed as an al
tentative to organization on the
part of farmers. They are asked
to become self-sufficient. The far
mer is to attain this by becoming
the consumer of his own products.
He thus rids himself of dependency
on corporations.
This is ratheran absurd proposal.
1t would not relieve the farmer OF
buying his groceries, drygoods,
machinery, and other supplies that
corporations control, unless, at the
same time, he resorted to the ex-
treme measure of becoming manu-
facturer of these commodities as
they exist in their present form.
Otherwise lie would have to return
to the stage Of household manufac-
ture, and to state of living which
would be so primitive that few
modern men and women would be
willing to adopt it.

The day Of the cheap politician
is over. Heretofore, the man nom
mated for office by his party re.
ceived nearly all the votes of that
party, The nomination was re
ceived from convention of dele.
gates controlled by the machine OF
that party. The rank and file had
very little to say about the select
ions. The past two years has
shown a decided change. The
steam roller has been put out OF
existence by the Primary Election
Law" The voter of today is a
thinking man. If he does not be-
Iieve the nominee of his party is a
straight, upright man and uncon-
trolled by interests, he will not
receive the votes of the best men
of his party.
Again, the day of the cheap pol
itician is over. For the past two
years in Montana, the man, that
would yell the loudest against the
Amalgamated Copper Go and Cor
porations, has been able to get a
large following among the masses.
His day is over as the intelligent
voter believes that the laws should
be made to give a square deal. DO
not imagine that [ am in favor of
the corporate interests of the state
controlling the politics of this
great and glorious state, as they
have done in the past: but | do be-
lieve that they should not be legis-
lated against because they are a
corporation. Give them a square
deal and no more. s*
Nominate no man for office but
what is of the high calibre in char
acter demanded by the voters. This
is the reason that this paper is in
dependent in politics. We then
feel at liberty to criticize the
actions of any officer if he does not
come up to the standard demanded
by the people and praise those who
are standing by the masses and
working for equal rights to all.
