Former
Treasurer Injured

Former State Treasurer Charles
A. Hastings was struck by an au-
tomobile driven by eighteen-year-
old Jennings Bryan CULLEN, last
Saturday, since which time he
has been in a critical condition at
his home in Laurel, Delaware.
Hastings, one of the States most
prominent business men, as we'll
as politicians, was crossing the
street in front of his Office when
struck. His presence of mind in
grasping the front truck saved him
from instant death. He was drag
ged about 20 yards. Only last
week he recovered from a serious
attack of neuritis.

For years the tribulations of
this interesting family have de-

Guilty OF Mail Frauds

Pleading guilty in the United
States District Court last Saturday
to charges of using the mails to
defraud, George S. Bell, alias
Frank Finnell, was sentenced to
six months Imprisonment and w.
w. Garfinkle was sentenced to nine
months Imprisonment.
When the case was called United
States District Attorney Nields
asked that three counts against
the men be dropped and they
pleaded guilty to the one remain
ing count, that of making false re-
turns to the Woods Dry Goods
Agency of New York.
Bell, who was released from
the Eastern Penitentiary several
days ago after serving a sentence
for impersonating a secret service
operator, made long statement
to Judge Bradford asking for
mercy. With Garfnkle were his
wife and four children, the oldest
7 years and the youngest 7 months.
The two defendants were ar
rested several weeks ago with
William Maysell on a charge OF
using the mails to defraud by max
ing false returns by mail of the
financial standing of the G.. M
Wright Company, dry goods deal
ers of Wilmington. Maysell was
sentenced to 18 months in Phila-
delphia on the same charge some
time ago.

but the big bankers who underwrite
foreign loans are generally removed
from danger for they do not deal
directly with the small depositor. Their
depositors are bankers and bankers
realize the necessities of the situation
If a run We're to start as a boycott to
prevent a bank aiding in the loan it
would easily be circumvented by the
association Of banks which require
them to stand by one another in time
of need. At most the noise would soon
subside and peoples self interest
would cause them to deposit again in
some other bank. Deposits are liquid
always except when there is a general
distrust OF all banks and their ability
to pay
The foreign loans will be made be-
cause there is no other recourse
Europe can't pay. The question of
collateral is one of detail. Bankers
always do have something to say
about collateral but they very often
have TO loan to keep business afoat

IT'S A BANKERS BUSINESS TO LOAN.

American bankers who do an in
ternational banking business may de-
nand collateral as security for loans
10 The oelligerent nations Of Europe
and hyphenated Americans may
threaten bankers with loss of business
If they loan money TO the allies but
the loans VIII eventually be mace.
American bankers have no choice in
the matter, no alternative Europe has
bought more goods from the United
States than she has sold TO the United
States. The American farmer is the
beneficiary of this trade The only
way 10 settle the account is with gold
or promises to pay and trade balance
that rises into the billions suddenly
becomes a balance which can not be
settled with gold. 1t is abnormal, I'M
precedentsd and impossible of settle
ment with gold. America must &C
cept Europe's note on account When
panics arise individuals are forced to
grant moratoriums by accepting note
settlements on account and just now
Europe is demanding an International
moratorium because Of the disturbed
conditions OF international trade.
Practically every European nation is
going to borrow money in this country
very soon now or else we will have to
quit shipping goods abroad and will
be unable to collect for what we have
shipped already.
If foreign governments would secure
their loans with collateral they would
save enormously on :Ae aiscc-nt for
their unsecured notes must sell way
below par because Of the uncertainty
of the wars outcome. Should Ger
many win some Of the present allied
governments might be SO weakened or
partitioned that they would be unable
70 pay. Should Germany lose it might
be after SO much exhaustion of re-
sources that her government could not
pay within the lifetime OF men nov
living.
This war has made the United States
banker for the world and when men OF
nations enter the banking business
they are expected to loan money,
Europe has right to expect legiti-
mate loans from bankers in Americs
and il she is denied she will do what
manufacturers do when their loans are
restricted. They quit buying and hard
times reign.
they subscribe for foreign loans viii

Looker-On In Iona

Gilman, Sept. 1.-THE old saying il,
/ There's nothing new under the sum-"
but in this town was a new sight for
the writer. 1t was when Lewis Button,
a farmer living north of here came to
town with his tractor hauling two big
loads OF green corn to the cannery
/ here. Behind the last wagon were a
pair Of horses, loafing along with
nothing TO DO, except to haul the
wagons on the scales, which are not
{ fitted for tractors. This tractor, twelve
horse power. was taking these two
heavy loads thru three-inch mud, at
easily six miles an hour. On paved
roads 1t would haul ten wagon loads
after start was made. The writer is
told, this tractor goes over the fields
hauling four plows and a harrow be
hind. Here's the proposition: One man.
one tractor. four plows. one harrow.
doing the work of four men and twelve
horses on piows and two horses and
one boy with harrow.

Nos-PARr1sAN ELECTIONS.

lDnOANuO 0AN'J
The Marshalltown Times-Republican
hpcnn interests not named contributed
municipal elections presented to the
last general assembly of Iowa.
This Is an error. A bill for nom
partisan municipal elections was pre-
pared at Dubuque and Endorsed by the
League Of Iowa Municipalities. but
this Endorsement was later Withdrawn
because the mayor of Waterloo was
against the measure, and the rule OF
the league is to support no bill which
does not receive the unanimous In
dorsement o: it's members. g.
There are two kinds Of non partisan
municipal election bills. One is the
bill favored by the spells politician:
OF the minority party in every city.
This provides for the election Of . few
officers and the appointment OF the
larger number by the few elected.
Spoils politicians whom the people
would elect to no office. and whose
speciality Is controlling appointments,
may always b trusted to favor this
plan.
The bin sent from Dubuque elimi-
mated the party label from the ballot.
which is what the spoils politicians o1
the minority party In every town pro-
fess to desire, but It left TO the public
taad not to the spoilsmen the selection
of all public officers now chosen BY
the people,,
1t is probably needless to offer fur
ther explanation Of the failure Of the
bill to become q law.
