HOW \ DANGEROUS FLUE
 MAY BE DETECTED

We often hear about the need of inspecting flues to locate defects which cause fires, but a person ought to know what to look for before try ing to find it, says Manager J. s. Speed, of the Arkansas Actuarial Blu reau, in a circular on "Chimneys. ' just issued.
 What to look for most particularly, when inspecting your chimney, is this:
 Examine very carefully your chim- ney at the point just below the peak of the roof, where the chimney goes through. The lower part may have settled and the upper part, being held by the roof timbers, may have pulled away, leaving an open space or break in the chimney Such a break will permit sparks to slip through into the attic or concealed space
 The spider is a regular little fire detective, according to the circular. It says: "The spider is said to spin its web on the wamest part of the chimney, and thus spider webs. ire Quently found on and about cracks on the flue. should be examined"

If took a two-years' fight to overcome the influence of the hspping trust. but the fight has at last been won. and the government is now in posi- tlon to use a merchant marine of its own to safeguard the interests of the American shipper.
 "Eighth-The child labor law has come in response to the growing de mand for social betterment. The fact that such law was necessary is a sad commentary upon the heartless- ness of men--that he should become so money-mad as to be willing to in- crease his profits by the stunting of the bodies and the dwarfing of the minds of minors. The Democratic party deserves great credit for add ing this law to its extraordinary rec ord of great accomplishments.

Again the President has taken the side of the common man and won The railroads over state the cost of complying with the eight-hour law. They delay freight trains at dividends in order to get bigger loads and longer trains. This is an expense to the shippers as well as an injustice to the train men.

 DEMOCRATIC RECORD

! The record made by the present administration in the matter of do- mestlc reform is without parallel in the history of the country. When. before, did any party, in so short d tune, present and complete so remark. able a program for the advancement; ot nations welfare? Is it possible that a party which has thus justified public confidence eau be rebukcd by the people to whose interests it has dedicated itself?"
 "First-The tariff law now upon the statute books is the best enacted within half century It is written upon the theory that tariff law should be so framed as to raise reve- nue and not upon the theory of giving protection for protection's sake. It has lessened the power of the tariff baron to exact tribute from the pub lie.
 "Second-The income tax provision, while a part of the general revenue law, deserves to be considered upon its own merits. It was made possible by the adoption of the income tax amendment to the federal constitu- ton, secured after a fight of more than fifteen years, made under Dem ocratic leadership. The income tax in the law of 1913 transferred nearly one hundred millions from consumption to incomes, thus relieving the masses from the injustice that Republican tariff laws had put upon them, an in- justice which would still continue if the Republicans had remained in power.

 "Fourth-The rural credits law js a fitting companion of the currency law It gives to the agricultural world the same sort of relief that the currency law brings to the commercial world It gives conclusive proof of the breadth and mprehensiveness of Democratic plans-iusSce to all in every walk of life.

 Sixth The act creating trade commission, exercising over big ln- dustrial powers similar { those eNer- cised over the railroads hy the inter state commerce commission, puts the federal government in a position, first to secure information, and second, to use that information for the protec- ton of legitimate business against the encroachments of corporations, att tempting monopoly,
