Seeking d Republican Candidate

lBy W. J Bryan in the C0mmoner) 5
The republican papers are giving
an increasing amount OF space TO the
discussion Of the availability of re-
publican candidates. II is a difficult
situation which the C. o. P. leaders
have 10 meet and it is interesting To-
note the diligence with which they
seek someone who can promise sue
cess They would gladly give a large
reward for an "ln hoe signo vinces %
Just now they are carefully Weighing
the relative popularity OF candidates
but 50 far they have found apothecary
scales sufficient The trouble with
the republican party is that It is d
vided-not in the middle as il was
in 1912. but still divided to such an
extent that agreement upon a satis-
factory candidate is a matter % great
difficulty. Among those who still cali
themselves republicans there are two
elements-the standpatters and the
nrogressives. The progressives might
be still further divided into N0MI-
NAL and real progressives A nom
NAL progressive may De defined as
republican who is in favor Of any
progressive policy that the republican
party will stand for. but is for the re
publican party whether it stands for
any progressive policies or not The
standpatters have taken the measure
Of the nominal progrsssiyes and will
make little effort to sugarcOat the pill
which is to be administered The real
progressives-those who put principle
first and refuse to follow any party
that is not progressive can take kind
ly-in fact can not take at ALTO the
play which the republican leaders are
formulating. The real progressive IS
pleased with President Wilson, and
prefers his kind Of democracy TO
standpat republicanism.
No one who is half awake can be
ignorant Of the fact that the republi-

WAR AND DEGENERAcY

N Ne Of the writers at the
W front in Europe makes
the declaration this war
proves emphatically that peace
does not breed cowardice and
military degeneracy. He finds
abundance Of bravery among
men who had never been TO war
before and who had no desire
for the present strife.
He might go farther and say
that war not peace brings de-
generacy. War kills off the
brave, aggressive manhood Of
a country. II leaves the old
men. the cripples. and the cow
ards. Continuous war viii tap
the manhood Of a country as
nothing else can do. History
furnishes illustrations to this
effect.
From the eugenic standpoint
war is reactionary, not progress
siye.

WHAT THE RESERVE SYS
TEN DOES

ia a T. lel clop pea 20 LlLAA
IS that while this country
= suffered heavy Jolt
when the LuSitania was sunk
and there has been open talk
Of possible war our financial
institutions have been absolute
II undisturbed.
There Is a reason for this
and il is found chiefly in the
federal reserve system.
1t may be doubted that the
great war, throughout the re
msinder Of its course, will de-
velop a migh6er cause for f.
naucial panic and demoraliza-
ton in the United States than
the destruction Of the Lusitan-
il with all its political poSsibil-
tiles directly involving the Am
erican nation, comments the
New York World. 1t is not 70
be doubted that under the old
national banking system, up to
the outbreak Of the great war,
no cause or occasion Of panic
ever arose 50 severe as this.
We know what used to hap
pen al times under that old
system. We accordingly know
what must have happened now
were that old system or lack
Of system still in force.
Each one Of over 1000 na-
tional banks would have taken
fright. Each one would have
clamorously begun to withdraw
its reserves on deposit in New
York. because it knew or ex-
pected every other bank would
do the same. These reserves
would have been found en-
ployed in Wall Street on call.
They would have been with
drawn and the stock collateral
thrown overheard. Money
would have risen to 100 per
cent or so, stocks would have
fallen 20 or 80 points. some
banks have failed and other
banks all over the country have
suspended cash payments.
But what has happened un-
der the new Federal Reserve
Bank System? There has been
no fright among the interior
national banks. They have not
been calling home their re-
serves, because their reserves
are no longer in extended use
here to initiate the stock mar
ket and then knock the bottom
from under it. There has been
turmoil in the market but no
panic. Wall Street banks have
not had.to call loans, and call
money has not gone above 212
per cent.
1t has been a supreme test
for the new bank system, and
the new system has met it mag
nificently.

And, jerking his thumb toward the
wainscoting on the left, he turned on
another light.
"My Lord!" said the Doctor, and for
moment fell back. For, driven into that
oaken wainscoting a good inch, there it was!

now just come inside. First I'll show you
that long-lost little hidy-hole.' He threw
on more lights ahead of him and went
straight on through to Mrs. Fishers little
library In the chimney-breast, on the
right side of the fireplace, there had been
set into the brick small brass-and-silver
shield" of Bikri work. Grady put his
thumb against it's lower edge. What they,
or any one, would have taken for solid
inset, was simply hinged and hanging

with it's lock broken. And inside of that
again was the combination door" and the
little safe itself.
Grady looked at them, and spun the
clicknggears back and forward pleasantly

suspect. But so much the more does his
story convince us that we may well find
our next step, and a deal of guilty knowl-
edge, in the maid Maddaina."
Little doubt of that, said the Judge,
with feeling, "if we can find the girl her
self"
"Well, l think we can. l think I've
already been able to make the initial move
in that direction. Oh, no, no! I'm not
going to go into it tonight. It's as late for
us as it is for Jimmy. Come in for break
fast and I'll tell you about it then"
But neither Laneham nor the Judge was
at the breakfast-table. When "Owly'
Vikings and ID. Hope came down, they
found that, in spite of all the Doctors
professional arrangements with McAIas-
ter, he had been called from his bed to an
urgency case at his Hartsdale sanatorium.
And he had had time only to leave them
scrubbed note. 1t read:
l want you two to go up to the Casa
Grande, and to AIaddalina's rooms (the
Commissioner or Judge Bishop will have
fixed it for you; I'll phone them bOth,
and look everywhere and thoroughly for
anything that may look like writing on her
walls.
so the next morning, in Maddalina's
- rooms and on her walls began the
search for Maddalina.
At first Vikings was for making the
quest alone. But the girl would not
have it so.
well only be going into the servants
wing" she said; "and | think I'm able
to stand that"
So they went together.
At those ninth-hoor exits from the Casa
Grande elevators, Central Office men and
uniformed patrolmen now barred the way
in every direction. But the Commissioner
had fixed it, The doors We're opened
to them. And one Lieutenant Hooley.
McGloyne's right-hand man, came hea-
Willy and gloweringly out to pass them
through.
"The Commissioner is bail that you
leave things exactly like you found them.
Does that go?'
"Certainly.'
well an good, then. But you've sure
got your nerve with you, young Teller.
You know, man was nearly killed up
here last night. You've sure got your
nerve!'
AS has been said, Maddalina s two rooms
or three, with her bath--were at the
extreme end of the upper floor of the SER
wants wing And first glance showed
that Mrs. Fisher had provided the girl
with quarters little less dainty than her
own--rugs and mating of a soft-piled
stone-blue furniture all of light wicker
and cheerful chintz. and walls rough
washed in restful old ivory. To associate
such surroundings with what had been
done, seemingly with Maddalina's guilty
knowledge, at the swimming seemed
impossible.
And writing on her walls? Why should
she write on them? And what would she
write? And, if she had written anything,
would it not have been found byMcGloyne
and his men in the first hour after the
tragedy?
But they We're there to look. And, tax
ing hold of themselves. they set to work
to do it thoroughly. They began with the
sitting-room. And all the exposed sur
faces were soon examined Then they

well, to say the least, it doesn't
seem to be getting a great deal simpler"
Vikings said that. But neither had
spoken till they were almost back at 800.
There they told the others.
AS if from some sheer spinal GOODNESS, the
Judge got to his feet and threw more wood
upon the fire.
"It's-it's all just uncanny horror"
shivered d. Hope. "All just one mixed-up
blur of it,"
Jimmy had gone clay-gray again
you'll never get to the bottom of it,
gentlemen-never in this world"
"And the question is, Laneham,' said
the Judge, @what do you now propose

In the meantime, there is enough that is

"Oh, naturally! If one could find any,

of, and | have my theory-at any rate,

Bishop, now walking the room. rounded
to a halt
"And is it anything that you can share
with us?
NO. Bishy, it isn't" Laneham spoke
in sort of self-defense. "As you know,
| went into this as a psychologist and
psychanalyst. | can only follow the
methods and principles of my profession
for criminal work. And to the outsider
they would in many ways be absolutely
misleading"
"For example," Bishop pressed him.
Eyes. I'll give you an example. though
only a distant one. Take this: After
every crime, we say, there will enter in
the law of dispersal The crime is a
kind of exploding bomb. 1t scatters the
innocent with the guilty. All people want
is to get away from it. And we reason
that the guilty may try to get away under
cover of the innocent. Well, up at the
Casa Grandc, and in the Casa Reale next
door too.--tenantS are already giving

"Oh, no, no. no. But, Laney, what
about that m-u-n-d, mund?"
Just this If can find the magazine,
or whatever it was, that had that word
on the back of it. | should say that the
purely criminal part of our mystery would
come very near to being solved"
And then he turned to Jimmy.
Jimmy. for the time being we're going
to keep you here. But, for tonight, it's
