DEMOCRATS
AvERTED A
BIC PANIC
AME ENOMENT OF ALDRlCH VReE-
LAND ACT BY THE DEMOCRATS
SAVED COUNTRY FROM ASERI-
Gus PANIC WHEN WAR BROKE.

has been the effort of republicans to
deny the democratic administration
credit for preventing a panic imme-
diately after the outbreak of the Eu
ropean war in 1914 Republican
spellbnders, in their desire to attain
partisan advantage, have harped upon
the fact that at the time the war
broke out the federal reserve system
was not in operation and that the
! government, in its efforts to fore
stall panic in that momentOus Aug
ust relied solely upon financial laws
(which were the creations of repub-
lican congresses. Emphasis has been
placed by republican debaters main
! ly upon the fact that in the ''parlous"
period after the outbreak of the war
most effective preventative operations
| by the treasury department were
based upon an utilization of the Al
drich- -Vreeland emergency currency
act.
1t Is of record that the federal
reserve act was not established until
months after the European war crisis
lhad been weathered, but confidence
had been inspired by public knowledge
OF the imminence of the new currency
systems establishment and by the
| foresight of the democratic congress
in amending the AldrIch- -Vreeland act
so as to make it a workable instru-
mentality for easing financial strin-
gency The bold spirit in which Sec
retary of the Treasury McAdoo and
President Wilson essayed certain un-
precedented acts to supply the credit
needs of the country also had its eff
feet in maintaining financial equilib-
rum.
An exposition of the question that
will bear the strictest non partisan
scrutiny was made by Senator Reed
of Missouri in speech in the senate
August 10Th The senator gave a
brief history of each financial panic
that had occurred under the opera
tion of the national ranking system
created by the republicans, showing
that these disturbances were all
thrust upon the country by causes
which, compared with the vast vol
ume of the country's business, were
SO small as to appear inconsequen-
tiaL"
With similar reference to the "in-
efficient and dangerous system which |
the republican party for fifty years |
maintained and bequeathed to the |
democratic party" Senator Reed went
on to show how the democrats sought,
first, to rectfy the fundamental
faults in the credit structure and, sec
ond. to cope with such immediate
dangers as We're created by the Eu-
ropean war Here are excerpts from
Senator Reeds address, in which dem
lcratic foresight is cNtolled with a
very excellent show of logic:
"ln order to provide for existing
emergencies and such contingencies

Things Are Not as They Seem.


The unpronouncable names Of the
Mexican and European war zones have
nothing on the name Of City Engineer
Jeup. His mail has come addressed
to every name from Mr.. B. Gee Up to
Mr.. B. Jesus, but it remained for an
Indianapolis teacher to spend year
in digging out his identity.
For months she had heard fellow
teacher speak of her brother-in-law,
Mr.. Yorp. During the recent via
duct trouble his opinions on the mat
ter were quoted frequently. For
months this teacher had also read of
Mr.. Jeup, the city engineer.
Finally, when the viaduct troubles
had reached their climax, she scanned
the papers eagerly every evening to
see how much longer she would have
to walk across. Engineer Jup held
exactly the opinions of Mr.. Yorp.
Suddenly light burst on her befud-
died brain. Rushing up to her teach
er friend, she asked eagerly, How
does your brother-inlaw, Mr.. Yorp,
spell his name?"
"Jeup," came the answer with a
mild look of surprise.
Eureka! MIR. Yorp, the brother-in-
law, was Mr.. Jup, the city engineer.
But the name was Yoip. Oh as in oil.
Can you pronounce it?-Indianapolis

THIS TABBY is REAL FISHER
Maryland Cat Wades Boldly Into
Stream In Search Of Its
Prey.

Hancock, Mo-, has cat that fishes.
Different from felines that have been
known to stand on the bank and try
to grab fish with their claws, this tab
by wades boldly amidstream and
awaits prey.
Yesterday the cat was fishing in the
little creek that runs through Han
cock near the old Eastern or Gilleece
hotel property, emptying into the Po-
tomac through a culvert under the ca
nal at that point The cat stood mo-
tionless for several minutes, and then
bounced on fish with both paws.
The fish jumped several feet out of the
water, it's body shimmering in the sun
light. 1t was then readily caught by
the cat, which waded to the shore with
it's dinner in it's mouth. This particu-
lar tabby has obtained quite a repu-
tation as a fisher.

Horse Has Raetime Habit.

A horse has an ear for music. A
ragtime. When he heard the notes of
a popular song from photograph the
other day in store he fox-trotted
right across the sidewalk, dragging a
Wells-Fargo express wagon after him.
The wagon became wedged in the
door, and the animal, unmindful of
the screams of women and shouts of
clerks, set his ears forward and lis
tened to the song allowing himself to
be led away by Joseph Davis, the driv-
er, only when the photograph had
been shut off.

providing a welcome addition to the

TO BE EFFICIENTLY MARRIED

Besides heating the house." he
says, "a man should have a thorough
theoretical, and a simple practical
knowledge of plumbing, SO he can be
beyond the mercy of an ignorant OF
dishonest plumber. The upkeep Of all
the furniture is your province; you
should be able to replace caster
automatically, or in your sleep put on
the pull of a bureau drawer.
"Of course he will not call in a
painter when floors or woodwork need
painting or a man to replace panes
of glass or put up shelves, or any OF
the smaller tinkering around the
house, any more than his wife should
hire woman to darn the stockings
or do the small mending.
Zone of his most important duties
is to see that each window and door
is properly screened. He should keep
all the shades In proper order and see
that the windows work easily and
smoothly, also keep the locks of all
doors in perfect order. He should
have a general knowledge of building
materials, so he will be able to advise
his carpenter. Naturally, too, he will
keep the knives in proper condition,
and no young man should wait until
he is married to learn how to carve.
