SCIENTIFIC OLD AGE PENSIONS

The Central Trust Company has put
into effect pension system for super
animated employees which is a distinct
advance upon anything OF the kind yet
devised by a commercial institution.
This plan is the creation OF Henry b.
Corbett and 1t applies to 23s OF the
270 employees OF the bank, twenty
seven of the remaining tsirty-two be
ing ineligible because they have no
yet reached the age of IS, and fivi
declining TO enter the pension system,
which is absolutely voluntary.
Each employee in the system con-
tributes a certain percentage OF his
pay to the maintenance, ranging from
little over / per cent for boy Is
years old to a little over per cent
for a man OF so. The retirement age
is Go, after which life pension is
paid, based upon the average salary
paid the pensioner during his term Of
service with the institution.
The average salary basis replaces
the less scientific and satisfactory
basis of the salary at the time OF re-
tirement, and works a larger justice
to the man OF small salary, No salary
in excess of $4,000 annually is TO be
taken as a basis for the computation
of a pension that is, $4,000 is TO be
the maximum sum considered.
In case OF death of a subscriber, in
surance equalling years pay. but not
in excess OF $1,000, will be paid in
lieu of all other claims upon the pen.
sion fund. while in case this option
is not taken the surviving heirs OF the
subscriber or pensioner are entitled
to a substantial pension.
For every dollar contributed to this
pension fund by employees the bank
adds two; that is, the employees pay
only one-third OF the cost, the bank
paying two-thirds. In case OF dis
charge of a subscriber, or If he volun-
tarily leaves the bank before he is
eligible to pension, he receives back
all the money he has contributed TO
the fund, with per cent interest, so
that the 1S..bling feature is absolute
ly elimin;s 81.
Altogether, it is a wise, far-sighted
plan and one that may, apparently,
be copied TO advantage by other con-
Germs which seek to reward faithful
employees by insuring them against
want in their old age.-Chicago Inter.

Worth eliminating convention, The
Eagel cant help it. We knew no more
about how they stood on the question
than hog does about the Talmud,
until the article came with the request
to publish it. And let us state right
here that in our twenty-five years
service as an editor we have never
denied any publication asked by an
official OF the Farmers Union. No
one knows this better than our good
friends |. NJ. Cook and J. H. White,
who have been the Farmers Union
leaders in this county since its organi-
cation. We have gladly given pub
licity to every communication they
have ever sent us and co-operated
with them in every way possible. and
expect to continue to do so and do 1t
gladly. We came from the farm, and
the interest of the farmer has always
been, and always will be, above and
beyond all other considerations.
If we had received a communica-
ton from the Farmers Union presi.
dent which was endorsed by the mem
bership and turned it down. we would
have been condemned and justly so.
When the article complained of was
received, we had no way to know how
the organization stood on the question,

it certainly sounded reasonable when
he stated that the organization had

FOR MAYOR:
w. w. HARRIS.
!. M. COOK REPLIES TO FARMERS
UNION LEADERS.

Editor Bryan Eagle:
In your issue of Saturday ] find an
article headed. Farmers Union
Against Prohibition Primary" ] no.
tice that you give the article a place
of honor by heading your editorial
column with it. and as | am member
of this organization and have been
since it was organized in Brazos
County, was its first county president
and also it's last, kindly ask you for
a little space to make few com
ments on the article.
Now in the outset, Brother Lewis
and Brother Radford proceed to har-
row up our feelings with hundred
thousand mothers with babies crying
at their brests, while they toll in the
fields, forced there by poverty, and
would leave the impression that this
was caused by failure of our Legis-
lature to pass some needed laws on
agriculture, and put up in comparison
a few drunken buns that voluntarily
infest the dives in cities, when it is
known of all men that when it comes
to spreading poverty, the liquor traffic
stands at the head of the class and
these, my brethren, would have us be-
lieve that it never reached the coun-
try, but just caught few voluntary
buns of the city. Then they bring to
us the cry of million children, their
young lives mortgaged to misfortune
Bryan daily eagle and pilot. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1909-1918, 1914-02-11

and ignorance, and hold, them up in
comparison with a few city delin-
quents who choose to travel the path
way OF sin. Then comes the heart
rending climax of 100000 tenant farm
ers pinned under the timbers of fallen
homes, and these appeal to the breth-
rem far more than few gilded palaces
where people revel in iniquity. But
why prolong the agony?
! thank God for the thousands OF
noble Christian men and women all
over Texas who have seen these
mothers toiling for their babies and
at the same time for drunken hus-
: band. They have heard the cry OF
that million children at last and are
coming to the rescue, and we are 60
ing to lift the timbers off the fallen
homes of those 100000 tenant farmers
and help them build them anew, and
put away from them forever the thing
that pulled down their homes and put
mother and children in miserable pow
erty.
Now after they have got us worked
up to this awful pitch, then as a cure
for it all they ask us to stay away
from the Democratic Prohibition'coun-
ty conventions. Now, brethren, this
whole things sound familiar; it reads
like a page from magazine that was
widely circulated over Texas not SO
awful long ago named Facts" The
earmarks are the same. After they
have issued their command to stay
out of these primaries, they tell US
that the order is nonpartisan, but why
didn't they think of it before they took
this partisan stand and try to place
the influence of this great labor or
ganization in the anti camp? But,
boys, she won't go. Every member
of the Farmers Union is absolutely
free, politically. The constitution espe-
cially forbids officers from using their
offices in influencing the membership
in partisan politics.

but this doesn't make me- one bit a
better union man than the most I'M
compromising anti-prohibitionis in
the county. We are broad enough to
allow each his views on religion and
politics ! regret exceedingly that
these brethren have seen fit to publish
this article. for / believe it will dam
age the organization great deal.
do most heartily agree with them that
we need agricultural leadership, espe-
cially leaders that will not embroil
"us in partisan politics.
| suppose two names to the article
was all they needed, or they would
have added some more "eX's," and
now in conclusion ! call upon the citi
zens of Brazos County, not as union
men, but as prohibition Democrats,
to meet at the court house in Bryan
on February IA at pm, there to
make one more pull to try to relieve
the misery and distress portrayed by
my brethren. !. M. COOK.

EXHIBITS WINNING FIRST PRIZES
WILL BE SHOWN AT STATE FAIR

The fifth annual Bolton fair held at
Beltol yesterday, is now a matter of
history. 1t Is good history at that,
and page will be read and ponder
for many day and from which
many good lessons may be learned.
Not the least OF the things taught
yesterday by this large and enthus-
fastic gathering OF people from all
over the Piedmont, Is that Anderson
county products are second to none
anywhere in the Palmetto State. The
variety of things grown in this coun-
ty is large: the quality is good, and
the people who grow them know how
to grow them and when grown to
display them to advantage.
THEN another fact brought out
yesterday by the exhibits made, is
thst this is not such q bad year for
the farmer after all There Tsrs
many more exhibits In every class
this year than last. IN the farm ex-
nibits there were 291 exhibitors.
whose entries got in, and many more
received too late for entry and clas-
sification. The poultry exhibit was
almost twice as large as that of a
year ago. there being 103 exhibits,
and in quality there was the same
improvement noted. The live stock
exhibit was also very good, and
while there were not as many as
there should have been, there were
twice as many OF these as were en-
tered year ago. Over one-third of
the hogs could not he put !ntc :he
pens. and while the cattle did not
cover thousand hills they did cover
one, and every tree and hitching
place had its COW. The hogs were
nne, and the man who did not coyat
some OF the beautiful milk COWS, was
not familiar With wha. : Eooi COW
Is worth.
One OF the most interesting exhib.
its, or rather. features of the fair.
was the show ring for the live stock.
Great crowds intently watched every
entry In this department, and there
were many good once. The colts and
horses were all good, as well as were
the mules.

formally opened at 10 o'clock Wed

THE GERMANS ARE BELIEVED TO BE
FIGHTING UNDER DISADVANTAGES

resulted in no definite decision in the
| battle raging in west Flanders and
northern France. The contest in the
eastern war arena In eastern Prus-
sia, Poland and Galicia has been
equally .undecisive.
This is clearly evident from re-
ports issued officially ut various head
quarters, which content themselves
today with recounting the fact that
Violent attacks have been made. The
French, however, claim the Allies

ication the Germans also made at

port Dixmude and E.a Basge. Tha

that the Germans, taking the osfen.

The Germans. however. are beliey-
cd here to be lighting under a great
disadvantag, especially along the
coast, as the British ships assisting
the Allies land forces have long
range guns capable OF seriously men,
actng German troops and men in the
trefohes as we'll as the. ammunition
trains and supply convoys.
While no official information Ia
available as to the ships being used,
1t Is probable that they are the three
monitors which were being completed
In England for the Brazilian govern
ment when the war broke out and
which were bought by the admiralty.
These monitors draw less than nine
feet OF water and could take up mo-
sit!ons not far from shore from
which their six inch guns and Az
insh Howitzers could throw shells
nearly four miles across country, the
range being given them by airmen.
The vessels assisting the Allies
have not been allowed to carry out
their operations for German subme-
rines have followed them down the
coast and attacked them while they
were sheliing German positions
