Entire Gallery Wanted.

rms year the White House has asked

Sinnott is at loss as to where to
place cabinet members families, un-
less the executive gallery is enlarged.
This can be done by tearing up the d.
viding rails and placing them farther
TO the right and left, which will have
the effect of including more seats in
the executive gallery and lessening the
number in the other galleries.
The demand for tickets for the day on
which the President will read his mes

Will be issued for the day of the open

voted to table the motion until the

down. The 'drys' contested the count
and asked that the vote of the mega

War Talk Prohibited.

The Pennsylvania railroad moved
wisely in issuing an order at Altoona
that none of its employees should ar
que the question of the European
war. In all operations where men
of so many different nationalities
are employed the European topic can
only lead to dissension. Patriotism
invariably rises above, ties of friend
ship. and in moments of enthusiast
tic declaration for love of country
there is always danger of grave dis
ruption. And then again, foreigners
for the most part converse with their
hands. and il must be seen how ut
terly impossible it is for them to talk
war and WELD a shovel at the same
time.

Ohio County's Citizenship.

An Ohio County space-filling cor
respondent TO the city news, whose
stuff is read with small respect by
the citizens OF that county, has scat
tered broadcast exaggerated reports
of the ''possum hunter" troubles
there, and for some three dollars
per column seems willing to SANDER
the people OF his own vicinage.
There have been some "possum
hunters" outrages in Ohio county,
but as the correspondent referred TO
lives in the center of the small area
of their operation there is little ex-
cuse for the false reports he has
sent out to newspapers about their
operations.
There are more than thirty thous-
and good citizens in Ohio county and
the night marauders, who never mum
bered more than two hundred men
and their operations were confined
to small territory. should not set
the measure of Ohio county citizen
ship.
That the citizenship of that county
is sound 10 the core is shown by the
fact that already four 'possum hun
tiers" have been tried, sentenced and
delivered to the penitentiary. "a
greater number than were ever SEN
fenced before from any county in
the State.
The people of Ohio county have a
citizenship that believes in a govern
ment by law and they have brave
sheriff and fearless county attorney
from whom some other counties in
Western Kentucky might get val
liable receipt FOR dealing with "pos-
sum hunters"
AS former citizen of Ohio coun-
ty the writer knows the facts, and
he has little patience with man
who will disgrace his home county
whether by 'posum hunting" or ira,

Plenty Of Money-But.

The fact announced by the Comp
troller of the Currency that the pres
ent unemployed loaning capacity of
the national banks is the largest in
the history of the country does not
strike the Evening Telegraph of
Bucyrus, o., as Indicative of prosper
Gus conditions. On the contrary:
Idle capital means that investors
are not making dividends, and the
average person may not feel very
serious interest in that. but idle CAPT.
tai also means that labor is not be-
ing employed to the limit that might
be desired.
II is undoubtedly true that never
before was there so much money in
the bank vaults ready to be loaned.
Also it is true that there never was
q time when it was more difficult to
borrow money for legitimate business
uses. So it turns out that country
may be loaded with money and yet,
under Free-Trade conditions, be far
from prosperous.

No doubt MIR. Bryan is at least a
silent observer of the stream of gold
flowing into this country to be add
ed TO the stock of the metal we al
ready possess. Our mines are also
producing 10000, 200 of fresh gold
a year. In his memorable campaign
Of nineteen years ago he had the
country In state of suspense over
his surprisingly energetic effort to
reject the gold standard, and make
the dollar unit As cents in silver. If
that proposition had prevailed the
next step would have been a paper
currency issued by the government.
I plan Mr. Bryan supported in 1892
when he cast his ballot for Gen.
Weaver. But the gold standard won
in the United States, and was firmly
established by Republican legisla-
ton after Mr.. Bryan's defeat Our
dollars are equivalent tO gold. All
government bonds have been paid i'm
gold on demand. No questionable
mark rests against our national good
faith in financial operations. Wages
have never been higher than now,
md are paid gold measure. No
,rown of thorns has been pressed ON
be brow Of labor, nor has mankind
been crucifc1 on a cross of COLL.
The large fortune and income that
Mr.. Bryan has acquired, through
American opportunity, are reckoned
N gold dollars. The wealth of the
United States in the neighborhood of
one hundred and eighty billion dol
lars is on the gold basis.
Mr.. Bryan made two campaigns
for free silver, and, losing both tried
Imperialism as the issue. He lost
again, and where is the Imperialism
Not in the Philippines, nor yet in the
of Cuba, nor anywhere in
the national domain. Mr.. Bryan has
always been a radical free trader, and
was prominent in shaping The pres
mt Democratic tariff, confused and
abortive thing i'm its practical work

peace Mr.. Bryan shows his peculiar !

serious nests known to libraries. FOR

serious pests known to libraries, Tor
II is particularly fond of the paste
used in the binding Of books. Heavily
glazed paper is also attractive TO IL.
Starched clothing, linen or curtains
may be seriously damaged II left un-
disturbed for any considerable period
of time, and the insect also feeds
upon the starch paste applied to wall
paper.By eating this, IL causes the

II gets into vegetable drugs of similar
material which is left undisturbed for
long periods. and It is an open ques-
ton whether or not IL ever attacks
carpets and plush-covered furniture.
A somewhat similar insect is com
monty called in England "firebrat,"
because of its fondness for ovens and
fireplaces, where the heat would de-
stroy other insects.
Among the remedies for this

The number of ships lost to COM
merce throughout the world is pre-
scented in the statistical summary for
1914, prepared by ''Lloyd's Register,
which announces in the course of
the year the gross reduction in the
effective mercantile marine of the
world amounted to 766 vessels of /, :
055,112 tons, excluding all vessels of
less than 100 tons. OF this total 491
were steamers representing S70,662
tons, and 275 sailing vessels, of 1874
$50 tons. The reduction was due to
those lost, broken up, condemned,
etc.
The sailing vessel record is prac-
tically the same as in 1913 but the
loss to commerce of steamers repre-
sented total of 33S,000 tons higher
than for the preceding year.
The losses involved are but small

An Interesting Candidate

II is not generally known that the
trade--or is II profession ?-of Jour
nalism Is represented among the can
didates for Governor of Kentucky at
the election in November. This
journalist candidate was at one time
Kentucky country editor but for
some years has been and still is work
ing in Louisville.
The reference is to Charles Dobbs,
who is the Socialist candidate for
Governor. Mr.. Dobbs is a native OF
Lexington, was educated at Bethel
College at Russellville. Ky, and i'm
medistely after leaving college be-
came editor of "The Allen County
Sentinel" at Scottsville, Ky. After
a period in the more or less exciting
career OF what the late Emmett Logan
OF The Louisville Times used to call
Rural Rooster" Mr.. Dobbs drifted
to Louisville where he first worked
as reporter. later as city editor of
the "Commercial''--pre of
me "Herald"-and still later as edi-
tiorial writer for the Louisville
Times" and the "Courier-Journal.
For several years he has been with
an insurance newspaper of Louisville
The Insurance Field. of which he is
managing editor. II Is the largest
publication for that line of business
in the world
From his boyhood Mr.. Dobbs has
been n champion of working class
rights. During vacations in his col
lege days he learned the printers
trade and is member of the typo
graphical union- For fifteen years
or more in Louisville he has been ac-
tive as an exponent OF the cause of
.on two ccassions being the Labor
Day orator for the united trades
bodies OF Louisville. He has become
known as a scholarly but vigorous ex- /
ponent of tire principles he processes
and has been in great demand for adj
dresses before civic. educational and 7
religious bodies.
For many years he has been nomi- I
mated for une Office or another by .
his comrades" the Socialist Party .
and has always made active cam
paigns. His politics, however, have ,
been the concern of his leisure hours .
as he has always been the hardest /
working sort of "A workingman.
Mr.. Dobbs expects to do consider
able speaking out in the State dur
ing the campaign and as he is de
rribed as gentleman of pleasing
personality and an orator OF force he
will doubtless be heard with interest
despite the Tact that he represents
a minority party.
A recent issue of the western
an important insur-
ance publication of Chicago, had this
TO say about Mr.. Dobbs: Charles
Dobbs. managing editor of the Insur-
ance Field Field. of Louisville, who
Is almost as we'll known to Socialists
as he is to insurance men, has been
for Governor of Kentucky
on the Socialist ticket. Mr.. Dobbs
has run for a good many offices. and
his friends think that ultimately he
may be honored by being ask to run
for president. Vile the chances
are that the next governor of Ken
lucky will not be named Dobbs, it is
certain that the state could go fur
ther and fare worse with regard TO
