CURRENT COMMENT
Mr.. Cannon's Retirement.

Few American statesmen have had
anything approaching Mr. Cannon's
career in the national House. Fewer
have STAYED there until they we're 50
wears old. lnasmuch as the next Com
gress win not begin its sessions until
1928, Mr.. Cannon would be near 90
when that Congress had expired. He
prefers not to seek denomination,
which could be had Tor the asking.
The famous Danville, lIlll, district
began sending Mr. Cannon to Congress
in 1873. Fifteen years ago Mr.. Cannon
was heard to say. while in a reminis-
cent mood. that Senator Gallon and
himself were the only Illinois men left
of that old guard, who knew Abraham
Lincoln; and Lincoln has been dead
nearly 81 years. To-day Mr.. Cannon
Is the sole survivor Of the Illinois
group that was in Lineolns personal
following. He became states at
torney for the 9th judicial district in
1861. Between 1868 and 1873 he was
i'm private life. and then began the re-
markable congressional career which
has not been continuous yet has been
virtually Mr.. Cannon's sole occupation
for half century.
Mr.. Cannons so years in and out of
Washington mostly inform phe-
nomenal experience IN American
politics. II seems trite to say that the
House will not seem the same with
out him, yet that family expresses the
situation. For the eight years OF his
iron speakership the House was Mr..
Cannon and Mr.. Cannon was the House.
His dramatic fall had elements Of
dignity that preserved for him the re-
spect of the country.
Few people can now remember the
name OF his Immediate predecessor in
the speakers chair, yet no one who
reads the eoantry's political history will
ever fail 10 recall Mr.. Cannon as map
who not only reigned but ruled
Springfield Republican.

THE BIG MONEY VICTIMS.

When there are such good invest
ments in the United States govern
ment bonds, when banks are available
almost anywhere, when real estate
makes one of the soundest places for
putting ones money, it is strange I'M
deed that men and women viii rush
into wild cat and entirely unreliable
investments like those just revealed in
Chicago by means of which people have
been yietimized to the extent Of mil
lions Of dollars, it is estimated. 1T
is the old, old story Of promised quick
returns and big returns very much
bigger than the normal of business
life. People flock to toss in their dol
lars, with no real assurance that they
will ever see those dollars again, or
even get returns on the investment.
II may be that there are initial re-
turns of such size as to cause the dupes
to aioat and chuckle over their sups
posed wisdom; but the time almost
inevitably comes when those returns
suddenly stop entirely, or dwindle
down to sums pitiably small in COM
parison with The initial payments.
Then comes the realization Of being
yictimized. The dupes clamor for their
interest; they shout loud and long for
the money originally invested. But
they clamor and they shout in vain.
Nothing comes back but hollow. ribald
laughter. They have lost--sometines
they have lost everything and are re-
duced to abject poverty. They are
commiserated with; they are eonsoled
with; they are probably given aims II
they are outside the earning stage.
They stand terrible object lesson in
the utter foolishness Of committing
ones substance TO concerns which
promised quick and big returns.
Yet, in spite OF that object lesson,
there is new crop of this kind of a
fool about every moon-new victims OF
the get -rich-quick madness, new con
tributors to the padded luxury Of a
few people who are bright enough to
dupe their fellow-men with shallow
promises. How long viii the people
permit themselves to pay these suckers
good money! When viii they realize
that government bonds, banks and
good real estate stand prominently
strong and reliableg Scarcely one in
yestment in thousand goes wrong in
these three classes; almost every in
vestmcnt in the get-rich-quiek con-
Germs goes bad.

Greensboro and Putney are two
mae Vermont towns, which made a
material reduction in debt during the
past year. It's a good trend. How
ever, there are plenty of chances TO
get into debt again if municipal cor
porations are to keep abreast of the
times; and unless town has pro-
vided itself with reasonable advan-
tages there is no distinct credit in get
ting free of debt. We are not in
formed of specific conditions in the
two towns mentioned, but we presume
that both Greensboro and Putney have
their share of advantages and are will
ing to go into debt, ii necessary, in or
der to gain other needed advantages.
Progress and prosperity in municipal
life are sometimes dependent upon
debt.

In spite of the fact that his big
newspaper circuit conducts a sizeable
printing establishment, the editor
Of the North Troy Palladium and
News condemns the modern practice
of printing town reports in minute
form at the expense of the towns.
Yards after yards OF statistics and fig
ures are printed in pamphlet form each
year for the purpose Of letting the
citizens Of the towns know where their
money goes, when condensed state
ments would meet The requirements in
a general way. Advocacy Of condensed
reports would no doubt mean a cur
tailment in the business of the job
printing part Of the contemporaries
business; yet il does not hesitate to
speak out in support of economy in
printing expenses Of the towns. Many
towns could save money, which i now
spent rather uselessly in an effort to
check up on officials for the benefit
Of citizens. The idea Of printing town
reports is good but Il can Be carried
too far for the financial good q the
towns.

guage study to the curriculum Of pub
lie schools should not be allowed to
be carried 80 far in any section Of the
country as to subordinate the English
language. No doubt there will be a
tendency in some scattered sections to
make German the major language
study and to let English take minor
position. This tendency ought to be
guarded against by all who believe in
fostering American ideals, American
institutions and American sentiment.
But as a minor subject, freed from all
clements Of German propaganda, the
German language courses cannot prove
detrimental to 100 per cent American
ism.
