RURAL CREDITS LAW A FAKE
AND GIVES NO RELIEF
TO FARMERS.

The Rural Credits law was passed
to make platform timber at the st.
Louis Democratic convention in 1916.
1t was rushed through in hurry to
help the Wilson administration cover
up some of its failures to make good
on pledges of 1912. John Burke said
IN speech opening his cacpaign for
the senate, ut would seem as though
that was sufficient to go before the
people,"
Cumbersome and Costly.
The Rural Credits act is pictured to
the public as farmers act. 1t is
really bankers act. 1t is unthink-
ably cumbersome. It establishes a
governing body of five members (at
$4,000 each) number of districts
and separate sub-governing bodies for
each (all at high salaries); and army

secretaries and others-for what pur-
pose? To help farmers borrow

Bankers Still to Rule.
But any one else can buy this stock
also, and with it participate in the
management of the Rural Credits
Banks. Thus any banker can buy this
stock and continue to rule the destinies
OF the farmers. as bankers do now
The difference is that direct dealings
between farmer and banker are super

McGraw's Men Give Stall,
lings a Shock Before
Flock of BoStOneSe.

Boston, Sept. 2.-There's such a
thing as carrying joke too far, as
George T. Stallings and his Braves
found out to their sorrow in their own
wigwam this afternoon. They mus
tered a whopper crowd out to their ball
park for a double torture of the de-
crepit and doddering Giants. The
crowd that came to scott remained to
pray. New York won the first game by
a score of to /. They held the chesty
Braves to a count of five all through
the second game, which was interrupt
ed by darkness at the end OF the tenth
inning
Boston needed a couple of games
badly at the start. They needed one
worse when the tale of the scoreboard
disclosed the fact that the champion
Phillies were cleaning up on the falter-
ing Dodgers. They needed it so des-
perately from the fact that they had
no excuses in the first tilt. Poll Per-
rift and Slim Sallee. in this opening
battle, held the men of Stallings to two
hits. New York drubbed Lefty Tyler.
The loss OF the first game was dis
couraging enough to Boston. But in
the light Of such pitching as the Goth
am pair showed there would have been
enough comfort in saving the second
game. The manner after which the
Braves lost the second was what hurt
Hub pride. Dick Rudolph, the idol of
the City of Culture, was Inundated
before his worshippers. The Bronx
marvel swung into the seventh inning
of this second game with the pastme
evidently sailed away. He was breez-
ing on the long end of . to l count.
Things began to happen TO him quickly.
He lost his grip. handed out a few
passes and was hit in the pinch for a
couple of runs. Two singles and
triple tied the score in the eighth.
In the second inning of the first game
the Giants scored three runs. The trio
came from q fine batting rally--a single
by Fletcher, Kauff's double, an error
by Fitzpatrick and singles by Kelly,
Rariden and Perritt. The other mark
decorated the fourth. Hcrzog singled,
stole second and third, and got all the
way home when Gowdy threw high past
Egan. Perritt, who started the game
for the Giants, allowed only one hit,
but he was so wild McGrgw sent Sallee
10 Polls relief in the fourth. The
sCuthpaw had the number of the Braves.
The Giants scored first in the second
game. too. Robertson and Zimmerman
worked successful double steal. The
Braves got this right back. Singles by
Chappclle were sandwiched round a
hit batsman. The Braves added four
to their string in the sixth. They
hoped on RUDE Benton for three
straight hits that loaded the hassocks.
Benton hit Chappelle, forcing in run.

West Point, n. Y, Sept. 1.-Two hun

ball, reported to Lieutenant Philip

work
McEwan, the new Army captain, and
half a dozen coaches worked for two

skill in going after the ball. Roooie

Jimmie Johnston has joined the
team. His nose has few more curves

Casey Stengel missed his third swing
at a curve ball in the first frame by
at least foot.
Whitfield gave the fans their first
chance to cheer when he raced to the
left field fence for Cutshaw's drive.
It was a stylish catch of a vel! meant
drive.
Mike Mowrey's grab of Bancroft's
terrific line drive was greeted with
silence. The fans were too amazed TO
cheer for moment, but then the play
received its full share of credit.
Al Demaree took up little time
throwing to first to catch Merkle after
Fred singled in the fourth. AIS throw
to first is the most futile thing in the
world.
1t was too bad no photographer was
on hand when Al Demaree stole sec

events should be preserved.

Giants Win First and
Tie Braves in Second

lie passed Magee, forcing in another.
A third run tailed while Fletcher was
throwing out Konetchy. The fourth
came on sacrifice fly-four mighty
cheap runs, it turned out.
A couple almost as cheap came the
Giants way in the seventh. Herzog
and Zimmerman walked. Herzog scored
on Fletcher's single. Zimmerman
scored on an infeld out. The Giants
knotted the count in the eighth. Burns
scratched a hit to Egan and raced to
third on Robertson's hit to right.
Herzog's out scored Burns and put
Robertson on third. Fletcher tripled,
tieirg the score, but was out when he
tried for a home run.
Neither side could break the tie dur
ing the next three innings, Schupp hav-

Benton, were put off the field for dis
