over Senator Smith, because of the fact that any of them believe he, as a mem- Der of the steering committee of the Senate, was responsible for the defeat of his colleague for president pro tempore of the Senate. At that time he was openly charged with betraying Senator Bacon, and that it was he who made it possible for Senator Clark of Arkansas to re named for the place that as a matter If fact ought to have gone to Senator Ba- con.
 Senator Bacon and his friends were bit terly disappointed at his defeat. It is declared that Senator Bacon never fully recovered from this disappointment and it is quite certain that the part Senator Smith is alleged to have played in that contest is bound to be brought out in tue coming race in Georgia.

 In the lower south sweet potato plants may be set out in the open the last of the month; also tomatoes and pepper. where they can be given protection on cold nights. Early tomatoes are the most desirable of all.
 Cultivation
 Frequent shallow cultivation is neces- sary for cabbage and caulifiower also young beans; but under no circumstances cultivate the beans when the foliage is wet. The best time to cultivate garden is in the late afternoon, as this seems to create moisture and draw it to the slr- face.
 The seed of main crop tomatoes may be sown now. Plant both water and musk melons if the weather permits.
 Sweet and Field Corn Both field and sweet corn may be sowrl now, prolific varieties being the best for the south. Corn delights in a soil full of vegetable matter Bear this in mind when planting.

There are two kinds af values, real
and sentimental. A short poem by
Robert Burns, in the poets handwrit-
ing. and signed by him, recently sold
for 5000, yet the real value was not

Sentimental value is always created
bat real value is inherent in the thing
ITSELF. The Esquimau values his ice
built hut in the regions of eternal
winter far higher than he does a
palace in temperate cline and could
not be induced to change his artic
home for any other. When forced
from his natural surroundings he
often dies of home sickness. An in
cident came under our notice of two
Esquimau youths, who were brought
to the United States to be educated
and who ran away from school and
secreted themselves on q whaling

OBJECTIONS 20 THE CUR
RENCY LAW.

The recently enacted currency law
a brief synopsis of which was pub.
lished in recent issue Of the Herald
is attracting wide attention from the
financiers of this and other countries.
A number Of the leading bankers
declare that it will work, out benefi
cially to the country, and an equa
number: declare that its effects will bt
exceedingly disastrous to the business
and financial interests. The chief OBJ
jections urged against the law are:
That the power of issuing currency
should be confined to the National
government and not be delegated tc
banks or an appointed board.
That it is unsafe to base currency
on negotiable paper, even with a 40
per cent gold reserve basis, and that
the currency basis provided for in this
law is but modified form of the old
populistic sub treasury scheme, and
that stock, land, farm products or any
other stable property of comparative
ly fixed value forms as good currency
basis as negotiable paper, and that
the farmer. is as much entitled to have
currency issued on his land and the
merchant on his stock of goods as a
banker on his negotiable paper, and
hence the present law discriminates
in favor of the banker.
That the concentration of the bank
reserves in from eight to twelve Re
gional Banks to form market for ne
gotiable paper, and hence the present
law discriminates in favor of the
banker.
That to give a board of seven mem
bers, appointed by the President,
practically absolute control over the
currency of the country is danger
GUS experiment.
There seems to be a general &C
quiesence in the provision permitting
banks to loan money on five year farm
mortgages.
The Herald expresses no opinion;
the subject is too big for its appre-
hension, but it can guess and that is
all nine hundred and ninety mine men
out of thousand can do in regard to
the effects of this currency law on the
future business of the country.
It is a radical change in our bank
ing and currency system and its out
working can only be determined by
time.

NELSON Will INVESTIGATE
Alleged That Canadian Government
is Publishing Misleading State
ments to Secure Americans

Washington, Jan. 17.-At the
suggestion of Senator Nelson the
Senate lobby committee today de-
cided to investigate charges made
to them by Cortland Smith of New
York that the Canadian government
is spending $250,000 annually to
publish alleged misleading adver-
tisements of Canadian lands. Smith
is manager of the. American Press
association and told the committee
that the Canadian government is
disbursing a quarter of million
dollars every year with another aux
ilary publishing organization to
print in country weeklies alluring
advertisements of Canadian land
that he claimed are misleading and
calculated to make American farm
ers leave the United States to go to
the Canadian provinces.
Senator Nelson, in commenting
upon the exodus of American farmers
to Canada, said:
There have been more thaE
6O0,OeO farmers lured frcr. the
United States into CrG..ada. A great
many of th.esll have been disappoint-
ed and now are coming back, but
a campaign is being continued and
more are going north to take the
place of the disappointed ones"
Senator Nelson urged that Smiths
charges be Investigated carefully. A
specimen of the alleged misleading
advertisements were submitted by
Smith to. the committee, and it was
decided to ask George A. Joslyn of
Omaha, president of the Western
Newspaper Union, to appear before
the committee.

erty and starvation for fertile fields
and life of luxury.
In no class of property does senti-
ment create a greater value than In
the matter of farm lands and farm
homes.
The real value of a farm is the
amount of cash returns that can. be
obtained from each acre for the
amount invested, the sentimental
value consists in associations, sur
roundings, length Of residence and
similar conditions.
Take for example lands in central
Illinois, selling at $500 per acre. The
real value is about 500 per acre the
rest is sentiment.
Sentiment and sentimental values
are the most beautiful things in life,
they constitute the only things worth
living for, but they furnish mighty
poor rations for a hungry man and
as wearing apparel they are less
protection against the elements than
a modern ball gown.
Sentimental values are the result
of conditions and the conditions for
the creation of sentiment are as favor
able, if not more so in the vicinity OF
Sank Centre as in any other part OF
the country. We have beautiful
scenery, a healthful and delightful
climate, opportunities for recreation
conveniences of living, educational
and religious advantages second to
none, and when it comes to real land
values this locality is unexcelled, fol
"a larger cash return per acre for the
amount of money invested can be OBJ
tanned than in almost any other local
ity in the country.
Persons purchasing farm homes in
this locality will secure real value
which furnishes a livelihood and the
sentimental value will speedily come
from association and residence.

THE TRUE FUNCTION OF Gov
EMINENT.

In these days of political unrest
the true functions of government
seem to have been overlooked and the
minds of the people need to be stirred
up in a way of remembrance.
It should be borne in mind that the
first great object of government is, OF
at least should be, the protection OF
the rights Of men and that the pro-
t,ction Of property rights is second
airy.

this elementary proposition, ever since

one hundred laws for the protection
of property have been enacted to
every one that has been passed for the
protection to the rights of men and
this tendency to magnify the rights
of property and minimize the rights
of men seems to be increasing with
each passing year.
The citizens of the country may be
divided into two classes: The money

The Money Farmers" or the
wealth Creators" are the class who
find it necessary to go out into the
fields of accomplishment and by. mus
cular and brain exertion, or both, pro-
vide the means of subsistence for
themselves and those dependent upon
them.
The Money Makers" or wealth
Absorbers" are the class who by rea-
son of fortunate inheritance, shrewd
investment, skillful manipulation of
the markets, discriminating legisla-
ton or for various other reasons are
placed beyond the necessity of such
exertion, in order to obtain livelihood.
In other words they do not create
wealth, but by various and devious
ways they absorb the wealth that is
created by others.
The Money Earners," who are the
wealth Creators" are the importan.

every other country of the world, and

for a day. They are the privates in

This country existed and happily be

into existence. 1t would continue to

the automobile they are a convenience
and not a necessity.
