Franklin's Statement.

In his statement yesterday Director
Franklin said:
'srhe Secretary Of the Treasury has
announced that the Victory Liberty
Loan will be limited TO $4,000. 600, 900,
except as It may be necessary to in
crease the amount of the issue In order
to make allotment in full on applica-
tons from subscribers for aggregate
amounts Of notes not in excess OF $4,000
anw except as II may be necessary to IN
crease or decrease the amount OF the Is
sue in order to facilitate allotment
while the Treasury Department ex-
poets every community to meet its
quota. some very decided changes in in
dustrial conditions and even in popula-
ton have taken place since the end of
the last campaign, but It has not been
practical to recognize these changes in
the quotas assigned. 1t is therefore of
the utmost Importance that every COM
munity make a determined effort to OBJ
tain every available subscription and to
roll up large oversubscription in order
that the loan in the entire country may
be an assured success. While II IL cred
liable for any community or district to
meet its quota, II Is stu more creditable
IL that community or district can not
only do it's share. but can help its less
fortunate neighbor.
hemetnper tniS Is the lasI 1dperty
Loan. There is no reason for holding
back this time. The keynote of the cam
paign should be distribution, IN order
that the Victory notes may be purchased
and paid for by the people at large out
of their present or future savings and
the resources OF the banks left clear to
provide credit for the opera ton OF our
industries. 10 the end that labor may
be fully employed and prosperity in
sured."

and district yesterday were:

MAN th2t will make every Frcnchmun except, possibly, a miser, glad to dig deep down in his jeans and 'forlI oNcr.' Ii is no less a scheme than d gigantic lottery, designed to tempt every 'rcuchIUun who has saved up 300 francs (about $10O) and is willing 10 take a chance, with the odds. more or less, in his favor.
 It is proposed to raise q loan of $ 2,500, ,OOV,O00. That seemingly un- rCaChablc sum is to be secured by making every Frcnchman bet against his fellow patriot. The government figures that it will be able to repay the lCm in 20 years in the order in dlcated by a weekly lottery. Tn ad- dition, however, a number will be drawn for two years, on each day of those two years, the pOSSessOr of which will win $25O,000.

Skilled Workers Sbun Labor and
 Draw on Government

Berlin, Nov. 14.--Thc "Worklcss support bonus that thousands upon thousands of men and women nov are drawing in Berlin and Gernlan% is proving a heavy. drain upon inc treasury-and it is charged that the bonus is so high that many men Nho in peace times were unskilled Worh- men now receive more pay for ldIe- ness than if they went back to tncir labor.
 Begun under the stress of the rev. oIution and with inc lhtentloh or temporariIy alleviating distress,: com plaint is made that this bonus system has become d deeply imbedded cancer that sucks millions from the govern 1nent that can ill afford it.
 The number of persons idle in Ber- lin during August was nearly a mil lion. It is estimated that 750,0O0 of them do not want work because they are being supported by the state and are free to carry on the illegitimate pursuits of the unlicensed street dealer the fy-by-night- gambler, the soap and cigarette vendor
 The streets and squares Of Berlin where people congregate most are despite occasional aFA-attempts of the police, swarming hives of humanity, selling or buying poor soap, wretched matches, immoral postcards and in decent literature, and cigarettes that are sold at ridiculous prices, especial ly in the case of American cigarettes, which now glut the market.

 Paris, Nov. 14-There are many ways in which a government can raise the money with which to defray the expenses of the war and the increased cost of labor and eQuipm ent, but it is altogether unlikely that any means of taxation will prove quite as popular if any sort of taxation can possibly be popular as that evolved by the French government.

THE MANCHESTER BAND.

The organization of the Manches-
ter band is a success and the band Is
holding rehearsals regularly every
Thursday night at Claude Wrights
Studio. Many applications for mem
bership have been received from pand
men living in other towns in the coun-
ty who will be able to attend rehears-
ais as soon as the roads get In shape
for travel. Mr.. Wright says any band
man. no matter where he lives Is well
come to Join our band and become
full member without charge. Twenty
eight men are now signed as members
and before the season Is on in earn
est Mr.. Wright hopes to have close to
thirty-five.
A feature in connection with the
hand. given to those who have Joined
is a free school Of instruction in the
rudiments of music, which Is held ev-
cry Wednesday night from 1880 to $3.50
at the studio. This school was es-
tablished for the benefit OF the young
er members who have never had any
training in the rudiments OF music
and is designed to teach the boys to
read rapidly, to know the value OF dlf-
ferent notes, the why and wherefore
of the signature, etc, as well as the
rudiments of harmony so that concert
music which the public will care to
listen to can be taken up and played
with some degree Of understanding.

JESSE GRAY DIES
FROM BULLET WOUND
ACCIDENTAL DEATH, IS VERDICT
) OF CORONER'S JURY IN SHOOT
ING AFFAIR.
MUCH INTEREST IS AROUSED
Bullet Passes Through Hand OF Young
Woman, Then Enters Gray's
Head.

A coroner's inquest was held Mon
day on the body of Jesse Gray, who
was shot Saturday night and died ear.
ly Sunday morning at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. George Higgins near Hop
kinton. The inquest was held in the
office of S. P. Carter, Justice Of the
Peace, Coroner A. d. Brown and Coun-
ty Attorney NJ. ]. Yoran, Of Manches-
ter being in attendance. The verdict
was accidental death.
The testimony disclosed that Gray
had come from Oelwein and was Wis
ing the Huggins home and on Saturday
evening the three were sitting on q
bed when for some unexplained reason
Mrs. Higgins was handling thirty
eight calibre revolver and it was dis
charged through her hand, the bullet
then entering Gray's face under one
eye and passing through the head and
breaking the skull at the back but re-
naming in the brain.
The witnesses denied that there was
any quarrel but gave no clear story
OF what. occurred. Mr.. and Mrs. Hug
gins were married only last Novem-
Der and are about eighteen years OF
age Gray was about the same age,
and efforts to locate his nearest rela-
tives have been unsuccessful
The bullet pierced Mrs. Higgins
hand without breaking any bone and
her injury is not considered serious.

STATE TREASURER HOYT In
CHARGE AUTO DEPARTMENT.

Considerable interest is being
shown in the change that is being
made IN the state house at Des
Moines in wrestling from the control
OF Secretary of State Allen the Auto
mobile department and turning it ov-
er to the State Treasurer's office. II
lis not surprising, however, that this
change was made. According to all
reports the automobile license bust
ness has been handled in a mighty
slip-shod way for several years. Own
ers of cars would send remittances
for license and number plates and in
some cases it has been as long as four
months before an acknowledgment
of the money was made and number
platesssent to car owners. Our read
ers will find this subject discussed at
some length in the legislative letter
by Ex-senator Caswell in another
column. Mr.. Caswell also pays high
compliment to State Treasurer Hoyt
when he says that the automobile Ii
cense department is being turned ov.
er to. the state treasurer's office
where a real business man is in
charge of the affairs. We venture
the prediction that hereafter automo
bile owners will not be obliged tc
wait several months for a reply to q
remittance for a license and number
plate.
