DEPRESSION WORLD-NlDt
SAVE IN U. S.

While giving emphasis to the
great cvops with which this coun-
try is blessed this year, and calling
attention to the era of prosperity
that prevails throughout the land,
Congressman Andrew j. Peters, of
Massachusetts,, pointed out. in re-
cent remarks that there is almost a
world wide depression existing. He
quoted from the June issue of The
Statist, which is published in Lon
don. The Statist said:
There is encouragement in all
the leading markets. In Paris,
which is always SO deeply interested
in investments in foreign countries,
the fall In securities has brought
about a preat lookup and has
therefore tied the hands of large
numbers of operators. In Ger
many there is n shrinkaRe in trade,
an. increase of unemployment and
an exceptional cheapness of money.
In Germany the tone of trade has
been affected By unfavorahle for
eign trade statistics for April,
which show a bigger reduction in
exports than has been registered
for several years. In Austria-Hun-
gary trade, if possible is worse than
it was.
st would, indeed, be surprising,
when this is the general state Of
things, if London wrres either opti-
mistic or active. On the contrary,
it is depressed. The great public
is holding aloof, and operators are
doing as little as they can. In such
a time it is inevitable that there
should be rumors Of all kinds ahoaf
pointing to this and to that per-
sonsge or institution at home and
abroad. There is no use in reason
ing with that kind of mischief-mak-
ing. 1t will not be stopped until
confidence begins to reyive and
people see the extravaganza of the
rumors they n supplied with"
Commenting on this statement
of fact Mr.. Peters said:
Nov, it is a fact that industrial
depression exits all over England,
with her free trade. Is that de-
preston due to the American
tariff?
In Germany where there is a
highly centralized industry, a high
tariff and trusts. a similar condi-
tion of stagnation exists. Has
tariff caused it? Can our tariff be
blamed for a bigger reduction in
German exports than has been
registered for several years.
Is business at its Invest ebb in
Austria because of the American
TARIFF Has our Democratic tariff
revision brought about the immense

ADVISE PUPILS

From Wednesdays Daily
 Following the discovery of case which the physicians believe to be smallpox in the school, directors of the Conway district this morning is- sued an order advising all pupils who have not already been successfully vaccinated to be vaccinated at once. The case is that of Sibyl Naylor, daughter of o. L. Naylor. So mild is the disease, however, that the girl is not confined to her bed and three physicians. Doctors c. H. Dickerson, George S. Brown and J. s. Wester- field, who visited her are not yet posi- tive that it is smallpox
 As Miss Naylor had been attending the school, the board at once took up the matter with the physicians, who informed them that if all the pupils were vaccinated promptly it would not be necessary to discontinue the school. Secretary W. B. Hubbell of the school board addressed the school at chapel today He ascertained that over 70 per cent of the pupils are already vaccinated and informed the remaining pupils that they should be vaccinated at once.
