to prove the gathering together of such
big fund. IL will still require good
deal of explanation.
The mere statement that 1t Is unfair
to compare the fund this year with
the officially reported three millions or
so of recent national campaigns be-
cause this years fund is not alone for
national but for state and local pur-
poses. will not stop the Democratic
candidate from charging that state and
county treasurers will do as they Al
ways have in the past and tar their
own special sources Of supply, Even
though this should not be tue, IL
will be difficult to disprove.
The actual total cost of national cam
paigns in the past for purposes of COM
parison with the fifteen millions Gov
ernor Cox alleges is being raised this
year is impossible to obtain. for the
reason that in addition to the funds
raised and reported by the national
committees there have been the funds
separately raised and separately re-
ported by the state and local commit
tees.
The Kenyon committee encountered
this difficulty in investigating the cost
of the campaigns. Although much less
is raised for primaries BY state and local
organizations than for elections, con i
siderable money was raised for Cen
cral Wood and for Senator Johnson in
this way. so that the statements made
by national organizations Of tne can

expenditures.
Previous Record in 1895
The highest previous expenditures for

NORTHWEST MOUNTED
POLICE HEROES ALL.

Justice is we'll administered
throughout the country, and even in
the remotest ming camps there has
been little lawlessness. For this, great
credit is due to the Northwest Mount
ed Police-the Riders of the Plain
a highly e cient body of about seven
hundred men, under the control of
the federal government"
This is the tribute paid to the Can
adian Northwest Mounted Police by
the historian who treaties the subject
in the Encyclopedia Britannica. a
rich legendry has grown up around the
activities OF this dauntless constabul-
airy unit, based upon deeds of real
heroism. With the intrepidity OF FULL
blooded frontiersmen they penetrated
10 the widest sections and downed
lawlessness.
1t is upon the life of these brave
fighters that the story OF THE Cy-
Clone" a William Fox production
featuring Tom Mix, is based. The
photodrama is a powerful portrayal
Of the life of the Mounted Police, and
is to be shown on Saturday at the War
field Theatre.
The special corps known as "Strath-
cona's Horse which won for itself a
niche in the history of heroism dur
ing the South African War, was re-
cruited almost entirely from the
Canadian Northwest Mounted Police.

THE SPENDING ORGY.

The national orgy OF spending which swept
over the United States following the armis-
tice still is pouring money into the pockets
OF purveyors of amusement at the rate of ap-
proximate1y four hundred million dollars a
month"; according to an estimate made of war
tax receipts by the treasury department.
Although expenditures have been curtailed
for automobiles, diamonds, imported cos
metics and the like the public has increased
its purchase of candy, soft drinks and other
non-alcohoc beverages, tobaccos and theatre
and movie tickets.
Seekers of recreation still are INDUCING in
these things at the rate of nearly five billion
dollars year, or enough to pay the expenses
of the government for twelve months.
Taxes received by the government in May
on the sale of candy, tobacco, soft drinks and
admissions totaled $36,618,000.
Tobacco, cigars, cigarettes and snuff seem
to be the favorite indulgences of the Ameri-
can people according to the tax returns.
Theatre admissions brought in the next
biggest income to the government, $6,623, 189.
At this rate the annual expenditure for thea
tire seats would be approximately $794,772, 900.
Is there not a direct connection between
this spending orgy and the high cost of liv-
ing?

The Liberty Bond Scandal.
From the Macon News.

More than 100000 patriotic Americans,
according to estimates, have suffered a sub
stantial loss by having to dispose of their
liberty bonds and victory notes at less than
par, and there is growing sentiment that
this government, as a matter of common
honesty, should bring these obligations to
par
At a time when the secretary of the treas
ury is trying to embarrass the American
farmer i'll particular and the southern cotton
planter in particular, he could employ his
time far more profitable by trying to re-es-
tablish the par value of these bonds.
In the heat and fervor of the campaigns,
when the government was seeking to raise
money by the sale of these securities, the
poor man and the rich man alike came for
ward and invested in liberty bonds and vic
tory notes He was assured by the govern
ment that at maturity these bonds would be
redeemed at par, and so they will be if the
investor can afford to keep his investment.
But as we have said, it is estimated that out
OF the 24,000,000 Americans who bought
these securities at least half of them have had
to sell.
These bonds and notes are now quoted in
the open market at prices that range from
$3.50 to $96.26 None Of the bonds are SELL
ing at par. The original purchasers have
therefore been forced to pocket losses rang
ing from $3.75 to $12 on each $500 bond.
The securities are being bought up in
large quantities by permanent investors who
are thus able to get a return of per cent.
The extent to which this sale is going on
is indicated by the fact that on une 80, of
the present year, the national banks OF the
country owned $778, 361 900 Of victory bonds,
which was reduction in their holdings Of
$54,574,0 900 i'll victory notes from the total
owned at the end OF last year.
That millions of American citizens should
be penalized for their patriotism by having
-, ,,,Iic ~,
dictment OF the government and indeed, per-
haps the greatest scandal of the whole war
period. There is no reason why these bonds
should not be circulated at least at par as
freely and easily as bank note No one has
the slightest hesitation to accept a bank note,
which after all is nothing more than prom
Use to pay, and yet it has behind it nothing
stronger than the same government guarantee
which backs up the bonds, and at the same
time carries with it no interest coupon. But
so long as the government itself permits its
obligations, when in the form of bonds, to
be cheapened in the open market no one can
blame a merchant for not accepting these
bonds at a higher value than the market
quotations.
All this is nothing new, to be sure. 1t has
been a continuing scandal for months. The
government has done nothing, and presum-
ably will do nothing. But the fact remains
that if another emergency issue should be
necessary in the future those who have suf-
fered loss this time will be hard to arouse
to the same generous fervor which marked
their patriotism during the war.

THE ECLIPSE OF ETIQUET.

Parents and instructors do not teach chill
dren manners any more-not to any notice
able degree Books of etiquet are drug on
the market, if indeed they may be found III
the book stores at all. The world constantly
changes. as a rule rather slowly but not al
WAYS. During the last six years, which cover
the war period up to the present time,
changes in ideas and customs have been ex-
tremelv pronounced and swift. We have en-
tered an age wherein the old cherished con-
ventionalities and formalities are to have but
small part 1t is an age wherein silence and
activity rather than much leisurely contab
will be golden. There is no time for the dry
husks of etiquet any more. Men and women
have outgrown formal manners, once the de-
light of the upper crust and still mildly obey
ed in some circles of society. At best much
of the shallow stuff was heartless sham. We
have come to higher levels, where candor
and kindness will go hand in hand where
heart, rather than veneer, will rule in social
affairs. Be not alarmed, for what may appear
to be rudeness will soon be known as helpful
frankness that scorns Duplicates. Jesus him
self set us a splendid example in social con
duct-an example that lacked humbuggery
of every sort and impressed for all time the
lessons of human love, which need no socie

OCTOBER GOLD.
From the Washington Reporter.

The mountains of the west have their
gold and it is most precious, according to
commercial standards, but there is law
iShly strewn array of gold along Georgia
roadsides in October that teaches nobler
lessons than all the glitter of metal. The
mine, traced to final analysis, gives little
but selhshness and craving; the roadside,
in its blossoms, affords priceless fragrance,
matchless beauty for the tired eye, and
holy balm for the torn spirit One cannot
walk the serene and splendid highways with
out having every step of the way, although
apparently alone, a .comrade who holds
converse through the lips of the flowers and
in the anthem of the birds that hover among
them-a -God--Dawson News.
True! God speaks through the pictures he
paints along every stream-landscapes that
are never rivaled by artists brush; he speaks
through the splendor of October days in
Georgia, but how many OF us take time to in
terpret the messages?
If man were more appreciative of the beau
ties of the highway of life as he travels on to
the land from whence no one returns and
less inclined to magnify the worries and
troubles that are met in the road, life would
yield more in genuine happiness than it does.
If you are low-spirited and depressed; if all
the world seems wrong, with more troubles
in it than pleasures, get i'll your automobile
and drive leiSurely along any country road
with your eyes and your brain open to the
beauties of these October days, and you will
come back to the daily duties with feeling
that nothing matters much in the great
scheme of happiness if October days continue
to come, when the leaves of the swamp trees
reflect all the colorS of the rainbow and the
goldenrod flashes in every field and the sun
continues to shine.

PUMPKIN PIE.

The season of the real pumpkin pie is at
hand. This tid-bit of the table may be made
out OF the canned product at any time and IN
anv season. But it tastes no more like the real
pie from the fresh pumpkin than sardines IN
oil taste like trout an hour out OF the water.
The pumpkin pie can be seasoned and Ha-
vored. but it cannot be adulterated. The cpl
cure knows what he is eating the moment his
palate comes in contact with the llling. 1t
is not so in other modern dishes. The real
taste of the food is often obscured in the
dressing and the garnishments. The chef who
cannot concoct a taSteless dressing in which
to swamp the real food is a fiat failure. There
must be something with French name and
an Eskimo taste to finish off his product
But the pumpkin pie cannot be destroyed
by even the most expert pastry baker. He
may disguise the ingredients of other pies
until the eater is unable to determine wheth-
err it is mince or chocolate. But the flavor OF
the pumpkin defes his skill and surmounts
his training 1t remains pumpkin no matter
what is done to it. There is material sub
stance in the meat of the Indian vegetable.
There is a health-giving element in it use.
