DEMOCRATS HAD TO USE
REPUBLICAN CURRENCY LAW

In the face of the greatest financial
panic the country has evern known,
the Democratic party in congress had
to turn back to the Republican cur
rency law to avert financial disaster.
Never, perhaps, did a great party in
complete control of all the branches
of government ever eat such humble
pie as did the Democrats when they
asked congress to use the terms OF
the Vreeland-Aldrich Currency Bill
to save the country from a panic.
For five years the Vreeland-Ald-
rich Currency bill has been the favor
lite source of criticism by the Demo
Gratis. They attacked it from every
side. Yet when they came to pass
their own GlassOwen Currency Bill
for the purpose of preventing panics,
they embodied therein the essential
features of the very measure which
they had attacked.
Scores Of times on the floor Of both
the house and senate Democrats de-
clared the Glass-Owen Bill would
render panic impossible. Demo
cratic stump speakers took up this
assertions and declared a measure had
finally been found to put an end to
panics The Democratic press follow
ed with fulsome praise of the propos-
ed panic panacea.
Then the Democrats passed the
Glass-Owen bill.
That had been a law for eight
months, but organization under it had
not been affected Then the great
European stocks and bonds were
dumped on America The country
was seized with financial fear. Some
thing had to be done 1t was report
ed that the Democratic GlassAOwer
Bill which had been so widely herald,
ed could not be put into working eff
feet for thirty days more. Yet in that
thirty DAYS business might be para.
lyzed. The situation was critical
Their eight months old currency bill
could not do the business. The Presi.
dent and his Secretary Of the Treas
urer knew it. They were graspinf
for relief measure. The fact wa.
forced upon them that the old Repub
lican Vreeland-Aldrich measure wa.
their only salvation. So, with bttel
reluctance, they asked congress to ust
its provisions to save the country
Congress did and the panic wa
averted.

Elsewhere there is no prospect of in
reference with the orderly processes
of American business. Stable condi-
tons are here. All we have to do it
to keep them stable.
The administration has decided to
appeal officially to the public to help
maintain existing satisfactory condi-
tions. The public cannot fail to re-
spond. The only danger is one which
it may create itself. Its course is very
simple Al it had to do is to sit tight,
to do nothing to disrupt the fortunate
conditions in which this country hap
PLY finds itself.

POLICE KEPT BUSY
 HALLOWEEN NIGHT

Halloween night was celebrated in full last night hy the kids of Greater Birmingham. The police and residents admit this without regret and are em- phatic in stating that they hope such a wild night will never recur in this city.
 They stole everything but the Fountain Heights church. said Chief Martin Eagan at 11:3o o'clock last ni-ht "The boys and girls have never before been so wild on the Northside.
 "On the Southside it was compara lively quiet. of course gates. lawn swings and chicken coops suffered on both sides of the city. Something like a hundred chickens were taken and lawn swings and chicken houses were placed on street car tracks to obstruct traffic.
 .However the real criminal was ab sent as there were no burglariss re- ported and only one serious cutting af- fray"
 Much of the antics proved of serious proportions as in Graymont bridges were overturned and completely wrecked. and vacant houses badly damaged, and vacant houses badly sponsible shooting of firearms.
 The fire department. contrary to the police, did not suffer from tho tokers. There was not one false alarm re- ported.

 Before the front between Dixmude and Huyghen there was no important fight ing. The allied troops were able to cross the Yser and to gain ground. Toward the east the enemy lost Bixschoote and are only maintaining their position at Passchendaele (six miles northeast of Ypres) with difficulty.

 Aggressive Action
 The notorious Sheik. Aziz Shawish, has disseminated through syria and probably India an inflammatory docu- ment urging the Mohammedans to fight against Great Britain. Dr. Prueffer, so long engaged in intrgues in Cairo against British occupation, and now Constantinople, has been in Syria try ing to incite the people to take part in this conflict
 Aggressive action was certain to be the result of the activity of the numer- ous German officers employed in the Turkish army and acting under the orders of the German government.

who came in trains. How about the other countless thousands who came on foot? To see those, one had to go to the little hamlet called Nispen. There a barbed wire fence and an old black, white and red stone marks the frontier. In double TOW the peasant population of the neigh borhood of Antwerp came down the road to Holland. Like some medieval migra- tory tribe, they came, with their cows and their pigs and their bedding, and with their old people and their children. Greatest difficulty was experienced in in- ducing some of them not to flock to- gether on the southern side of the barbed wire fence, where they were at home, but to go to the northern side, where they were abroad
 Hard to Move
 Again it was the Dutch soldiers who helped the peasant across his own preju- dice and across the international piece of barbed wire. The children were the hardest to move. They had heard so many stories of the enemy in his grayish gI cen uniform that they distrusted the Dutch infantrymen in the same green suit. They put up their little hands as they had been taught to do by their par ents whenever they saw Uhlan, and it was not until this peaceful Uhlan actual ly put a piece of bread in their little mouths that they were willing to be picked up and to be carried into Hol- land.
 Dutch farmers were allowed to hire out as cabmeri and to transport the refugees to Rozeldaal, distance of two hours. But once or twice a day each self ap- pointed cabby had to transport, free of charge, full cargo of poor people. In long rows, they sat waiting for their turn to come. When evening came, fires were made to keep the people warm. Along the roads whole families might be seen sleeping under an old awning, ly- ing very close together in order to keep warm And for distance the red glow of Antwerps burning oil tanks could be seen, while continuously there was heard tho deep ominous boom, boom, which indi- cated another shell on its way to death and destruction And this is what war means ih the Year of Our Lord, 1914

HOPES FOR WAR
 WITH RUSSIA ONLY

Advices received here under date of Thursday indicated that Turkey still hoped to confine her belligerency to war with Russia.
 The government received no word today as to the probable attitude of Roumania or Bulgaria. A belated message under date of September 29, from Sofia, how ever spoke of a speech by the King pro- claiming Bulgaria's intention to remain neutral.
 On the authority of a prominent dip lomat it was learned today that A. Rus tenn Bey, the Turkish ambassador, before his departure from Washington weeks ago, told a prominent peace advocate that Turkey would join Germany within a month attacking Russia on the Cauca sian frontier and Great Britain in Egypt
 With the seyering of diplomatic relations between the triple entente and the porte, the American embassy will take charge of British and French interests, while the Italian embassy already has taken over Russian affairs.
 London. October 31.-(5:53 D. m.)-An of flcial message has been received at Rome from Constantinople, according to a dis patch to the Central News agency, an- nouncing that the Russian fleet had at tackled the Turkish near Sebastopol in the Black sea. Details of the battle are lacking.
