State Platform Convention at the
Marquette Hotel.
The result of every primary cleo
ton since 1912, it is stated in the plat
form, has showed the drift of the Pro-
gressives toward the Republican par
made goods. These laws, also, it is
said, have forced many manufactur-
ers into bankruptcy. A universal stag
nation of business has resulted, it is
asserted.
The Democrats have tried, it is
said, to relieve the stagnation in bust
ness by establishing a banking sys-
TEN, but this, it is said, has failed to
give the promised relief. On the con-
trary, it has complicated and added
burden to the business world, it is
charged.
The Democrats, it is said, promised
lower cost of living, but have not car
ried out their promise. On the other
hand, wages have been reduced and
the prices to producers have been re-
duced
They also promised adherence to
civil service reform, but are declared
to have stripped, by farcical examina-
tions, the diplomatic, postal and other
! branches of the Government of their
trained experts, to make places for
unframed Democratic partisans.
The Republican State Committee
has opened elaborate headquarters on
the fifth floor of the International
Life building, at Eighth and Chestnut
streets. Chairman j. L. Babler said
Wednesday that a speakers bureau
and publicity bureau would be open.

An important Event.

The poultry show at the city hall IS
one Of the biggest local events of the
year. The chicken men are a modest
bunch who do not make much noise,
but the Importance of their work is
nevertheless great. The festive hen
products amount in the aggregate to
far more than other lines and can be
made an important source of revenue
on every farm and gardeners place.
The enterprising poultry men who are
putting on this exhibit deserve the
hearty cooperation Of every citizen.
Take out a membership if you can, but
at least patronize the show.

SYMPATHY FOR MEDIAT0Rs.
Director Barrett Counsels Against
Hasty Criticism in Address.

Urging That they do all they can to
create sympathy toward the self-assumed
work OF the South American ENJOYS who
are bent on the general pacification Of
Mexico and that they counsel against
hasty criticism. John Barrett. director
general of the Pan-American Union, adj
dressed the Club Of the Colonial Danes
last evening.
While my official position as an inter-
national officer said Mr.. Barrett. pre-
vents me from discussing IN any form
the problems at stake in the movement
for mediation between the United States
and Gen. Huerta in Mexico, I can ex-
press the hope one in touch with
American sentiment. that the thoughtful
men and women of this capital and
country will in no way embarrass the
sincere efforts Of three great South
American republics. Argentina. Brazil and
Chile, TO preserve peace on the western
hemisphere through the noble procedure
OF mediation
Nothing can be more unfortunate" he
continued, than TO be hasty IN criticism
of their efforts or be unsympathetic to-
ward this international movement for
peace. Whether il succeeds in its ulti-
mate purpose or not, IT cannot fail to
have produced profoundly favorable in
can nation and to show to the world that
the American republics are genuinely
anxious to promote the cause OF peace
and good will among their respective

FOR UNIFORM ACCOUNTING
IN RESERVE BANK SYSTEM
Charles Kram, Auditor for Post
Office Department, to Study
New York Methods.

Charles kram. auditor for the Post
Office Department. who has charge of
the largest accounting Office in the Unit
ed States. has been sent to New York
city by the Secretary of the Treasury,
where he will review accounting meth
DDS in use in the big banks. with the
expectation that his observations will
be of value in framing uniform ac-
counting system for the banks of the
new federal reserve bank system.
National banks over the country give
bank examiners many difficult problems
despite the fact that these men are ex-
perts in bank accounting.
There is more or less uniformity in the
banks method Of keeping individual de-
posts due to the fact that the making
Of accounting books has been systema-
tized. But in the keeping of accounts
of loans and securities much confusion
prevails.
Uniformity in accounting for the fed
eral reserve bank system has appealed
not only to the organization committee.
but to bankers and financial experts in
many parts of the United States. New
York city financial experts have been
especially active in this regard.
