ExrERMlNArE THE RATS.

The advices OF the State Board Of
Health to the river cities to kill the
rats should be followed promptly, says
the St. Louis Post Dispatch. These
vermin are carriers OF the bubonic
plague, two cases OF which have been
discovered at New Orleans. Rats
from that city may find their way into
st. Louis on river boats. If they do.
they should find conditions here an.
The hordes of st. Louis
rats should be in process Of extermi-
nation.
Owners and lessees of buildings, es-
pecially markets and warehouses,
should begin the work of destroying
these animals. Those that cannot be
reached by traps or poisons should
be starved out. This can be done by
stopping all holes and creyices with
cement Foundations and Easements
should be made rat proof Entrances
to sewers should be closed with wire
netting.
Prompt and thorough work on these
lines will make st. Louis safe from
Infection. Now is the time to begin.

SEES G. Q. ?. VICTORY.

A staff correspondent of the Chi
cago Tribune, writing about the po-
litical situation from Washington, says
the drift of public sentiment is against
the present administration and repub
lican success is predicted at the COM
ing fall elections.
Official figures of recent elections,
primaries and registrations in differ
ent sections of the country, made
public today by the committee, show
republican gains and corresponding
democratic and progressive losses.
The committee makes this statement:
"A careful analysis of these figures
shows Enthusiastically the trend of po-
litical sentiment from Maine to Cali
fornia. The swing back to republi-
can victory is on.
THE figures show that the condition
that resulted in the election Of Wilson
is wiped out and that the readjust-
ment has been favorable to the repub.
lican party in every instance. The
total vote in primaries and congress
sional elections was, in most cases,
less than that in the presidential cleo
ton two years ago, but even in these
instances the republicans gained.
"In the seventh district of New
Jersey the total vote in the congress
sional election fell away 40 per cent.
yet the republican gain was SO per
cent over 1912.
in the second district OF Iowa the
decrease in the total vote, compared
with 1912, was SO per cent, yet the
republican gain was ~ per cent.
In the senatorial primary in Penn
sylvania the total vote was 40 per cent
less than the total vote in the presi-
Dental election two years ago, but
the republican gain was 81 per cent.
"One of the most significant of the
returns is that of the Minnesota cleo
ton for governor, in which the republi-
can gain was 203 per cent, in spite OF
the fact that the total vote was 81
per cent less than the vote for presi-
dent in 1912"

ships before any real demand for
them had arisen-a law which was
applied almost immediately-there
were questions that required united
action. For instance, the early set
tiers were called upon to vote for
territorial officers; road districts
were established by central authori-
ties but placed under the control OF
a local officer who ordered local resi-
dents to labor upon the highways:
the post Office located upon an estab-
lished mail route determined CEN
ter about which settlements were
made; while protection of personal
property and land claims led to
united If extra-legal action, which un-
der the system of government survey
was usually confined to congress
sional township. - From Aurner's
History Of Township Government
in Iowa." recently published by the
State Historical Society Of Iowa.

CITY BANK EXAMINER.

To supplement the federal and
state examinations, thus considerably
stabilizing local financial conditions,
the Spokane Clearing House associa-
ton on July 1 created the Office OF
city bank examiner Charles A. Nc
Lean. a cashier of fourteen years ex-
perience in large national bank OF
Spokane, is the first examiner. He
will devote his entire time to exam
nations of local banks, making recon-

of each. In case the examiner thinks
his recommend ations are not being
followed 1t then becomes his duty to
refer the matter to the clearing house

the association. says: Clearing house
examiners are rather new thing.
The Walsh failure in Chicago few
years ago showed that bankers should
have more frequent and thorough
examinations Of their banks than the
national or state examiners could
make On account of the large number
OF banks, and they employed a spe-
cial examiner OF their own who would
devote his whole time to the exami-
nations OF the banks that were men,

The new idea was so practical ana
beneficial that 1t rapidly spread all

San Francisco and Portland on the

Biz Year In church Building.

New York Sun: Reports received
here from various parts of the coun-
try indicate that this will be a buster
season In church building than for ten
years past, despite the talk OF fnan-
Icial and Industrial depression.
Contracts thus far let call for struc-
lures that will cost between $35 ,00O,-
900 and $4O.O00,00O. While all Of this
money may not be spent upon the
buildings before the end of this year,
contracts uncompleted at the begin
ming of the season will make the total
expenditure this year approximate
$40, 900, 900.
This sum is about $5,0O0,0OO above
the average for the last ten years. i
The Roman Catholics are among the
most active this season. They are
following the pattern Of Vienna, Paris
and Rome in multiplying the number
of parishes In large cities, feeling that
their parishes in many cases are too
large. In the southern states much
building of small Catholic churches is
going on.
The Episcopalians are also active.
They are building cathedrals in sew
eral important cities. The Christian
Scientists report fewer building pro-
jects this year than formerly
New York will spend from s5,000,000
to $S,000,00O this summer, chiefly on
Manhattan island. Chicago has in
hand some s3,D0o,ooo in church pro-
jects. The south and southwest,
New England and the Rocky noun
tain regions report the largest num-
Der OF projects, although in many
cases amounts involved are small.

INTERESTING DECISION

A Philadelphia judge has discover

throw any handsprings on a street
crossing to get away from an automo-

that motorists are too ready to look
upon the foot passenger as an inter-
loper. He says that the ancient right
of the pedestrian to cross the busy
street at any old place must be re-
stricted to meet modern traffic condi.

crossing he has found his right place
and there he has the right of way.
The driver must recognize that right.
The Times-Picayune commends this
decision and the Philadelphia Record.

where an automobile must come to
stop to avoid accident at crossing,

prudence.
The Philadelphia Judge afffrms that
running down and killing person at
a turn or crossing is not an "un-
avoidable accident" if it might have
been prevented by bringing the car
to a stop. Between crossings the
vehicle has the right of way. At cross
