The Year.
The year has gone and with it many
a glorious throng of happy dreams.
In its swift course it waved its scep-
ter over the beautiful and they are
not. 1t laid it's pallid hand upon the
strong man and the naughty form is
fallen and the flashing eye is dim.
Like the dying of a day or the closing
of an earthly life is the passing of a
year. The war clouds that hung over
the nations Of the earth, black with
wrath for the destruction Of human
life have ceased. But today we face a
graver situation, fear grips the heart
o Thoughtful men and women all over
the world. The peril of anarchy, the
overthrow of our civilization, men are
justifiable in their fears and right is
as king-how may it be stopped. His
tory teaches us that fear seldom leads
to wisdom in dealing with menacing
situations. The natural impulse OF
men under the power Of fear. is to
resort to physical force. Within GER
tain limits such force is necessary.
When a Nation like Germany under
takes to impose her will upon the
earth by the power of the sword,
nothing is left to free people but to
accept the challenge of the sword.
But there are limits to which force
is not effective.

AMERICANS FORCE
FIGHT ON B0LSHEVlKl

ARCHANGEL, Nov. 2S,-Apparently
the dominating influence Of the allies
was one Of the reasons for the low ef-
~ficiency heretofore displayed by the
Northern Russians IN fighting the Boil
hevlki. They depended TOO much on
the allies guidance aud assistance.
Upon the departYce of the British all
civil and military affairs We're taken
over exclusively by Russians. The first
fortnight that they have been thrown
on their own resources has demon
strated that in this region they cannot
only hold the front but can develop
initiative and move forward where
necessary.
The conviction Is growing that With
the arrival OF Serbian and Cgecho-Slo-
yak troops they win not only be able to
defend the Northern district, but win
be able to give material assistance on
other Russian fronts,

Duplicate Accounts.

While there are a great many de-
posit0rs who have duplicate accounts,
the figures obtained from the comp
troller's report show the great expan-
sion of wealth was among the masses
OF the people during the past nine years.
AS further evidence of how general this
expansion actually has been, the fig
ures on total deposits divided among
the number Of depositors show that
while in 1910 the average amount on de-
post for each deppsitor was S6S9.47, the
report for June this year puts the av-
erage deposit at 1851 %, or very close to
the figure Of nine years Ago., indicating
a broader distribution of wealth,
Reports from banks, not members of
the national system, and numbering
2l,l75 as against the 7,705 national
banks In operation, and the 1881 au-
thOrized, show that on June 20, 1918,
these institutions held deposits totaling
$l7, $50, l0i, 1855. 43, These banks also have
had a successful operation under fed
eral supervision.
This marked advance In the breadth
and stability of banking interests has
occurred during the period In which the
Democrats have been in control, and
these results are directly traceable to
the federal reserve system inaugurated
by the Democratic party more than to
any other cause. What is accepted as a
sure index to the safety Of Democratic
administration of the Country's finances
Is the gradual decline in the number OF
national bank failures in the period OF
Democratic control There were eight
national bank failures in 1914. The
number was reduced to half that num-
her in 1915, In 1915 and 1917 there were
three failures recorded for each year.
There has been only one failure in the
II months that began in 1918.

NO SMALLER NAVlES,
SAYS JAPANESE PAPER

TOXIC, Nov. 2S.-The Kokumin Shin

the difficulties involved on the reduc-
lion Of naval ornaments. It says that
the fact that the final victory won by
the allies was due largely to the great
naval power of the British empire win
surely be a bar to the solution Of the
armament reduction problem to be
dealt with by the league of nations.
Above all, Japan being surrounded by
the sea, must depend upon commodi-
ties imported from other countries,
The kokumin adds that even II the
present conditions of the navy be made
the standard of the reduction OF arma-
ment, Great Britain and America will
not feel danger for their national de-
tense, But Japan has not even a suf.
f~ictency for defense and cannot admit
that the present condition Of the navy
is the standard of armament. The 10
