REPUBLICAN
MALADMINISTRA

In opposing some of the numerous
and unnecessary appropriations of
this Republican Congress, Senator
King, of Utah, scored the G. o. P.
leaders in Congress in this caustic
fashion. He said out in Congress:
"Mr. President, this Congress is
not rede eming the pledges made By
the Republican Party. II is bankrupt
ing the Treasury, increasing eXpen-
ditures, borrowing money, issuing
short-term bonds for hundreds of mil
lions of dollars. Economic disaster
has overtaken the people.
Corn was burned for fuel under
the administration of Harrison, and
now the same thing is happening und-
er this administration. and there has
never been financial panic since the
Civil War in this Republic but what
had its inception during a Republican
administration and the panic breeding
legislation passed by that party.
Through its manipulation of the Fed
eral reserve law it has Debated the
currency and brought untold hard
ship and financial embarrassment to
business all over the country"

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

DR.. Charles w. Eliot, president
emiritus of Harvard University, cele-
brated his eighty-eigKth birthday by
doing his regular days work. Edison,
seventy-fve, confessed somewhat shy
ly to being few minutes late for of
flee because his family was "celebrat-
ing"
Two men both long past the age
when most men are useful, continue
to live and work and make the world
better. How do they do it? A stag
ant pool is one into which no water
flows, from which no water runs. A
fresh, clear pool is one into which
waters runs and from which water
constantly flows. Edison and Eliot
have minds through which thought,
ideas, pictures, conceptions constant
ly flow. To stay young, read, think,
educate your brain. You will never
be an Edison or an Eliot, probably,
but you will be of use, and live long
enough to make that use count in
proportion to what you know, what
you learn, to what purpose you use
your brain.

JUSTICE TO THE FARMERS

A bill in Congress provides for
loans to farmers up to three years
time on warehouse receipts.
In an address to the Senate banking
committee Mr.. Gray Silver, of the
American Federation said:
Take the toll gates off the finan.
cial road which the farmer has to
travel and that agriculture was en-
titled to necessary credit facilities in
equal terms with other basic indus
tries.
Mr.. Silver contended that growing
crops, live stock and matured crops
in bonded warehouse were the simp-
lest collateral for agricultural loans.
and moreover, were "safe" collateral.

CAPTAIN SAM BRADY AND HIS
FAMOUS LEAP

Capt. Sam Brady was member of
fighting family which made history
on the Pennsylvania border during the
Indian wars after the Revolution.
Captain Brady's greatest exploit took
place in Ohio. He had been captured
by the Indians aEd carried to the San.
dusky Towns, Headquarters for all the
Ohio tribes, where the savages pre-
pared 10 burn him at the stake.
He was stripped, bound to a post
and slow fires kindled around him, for
the Indians hated him so much that
they wished TO torture him as long as
possible. Brady was powerful man
and he strained at his fetters until
they were lOosened slightly. Then
with final effort he snapped the las,
bond, leaped across the barrier of
llame and, selling squaw, pitched
her into the fire.
Before the Indians could recover
from their surprise, the scout escaped
from the village and plunged into the
woods. hotly pursued by hundreds OF
savages. Finally he came 10 the
Cuyahoga river, near the present site
of Kent in Portage county.
At this place the river flowed be-
tween steep, rocky banks, % feet
across from side to side. The scout
was trapped. There was no other place

FROM INN SERVANT TO EMPRESS.
BY JAMES c. YOUNG

EARLY I'm the Eighteenth century
L. the Russians captured Marienburg,
East Prussia. A squad Of drunken
soldiers rified one Of the principal inns.
In their search for valuables they
opened the oven door Of the inns huge
stove, made of porcelain, and brought
forth two frightened girls. One OF
them was Catherine, a servant, and the
other Marie, who was staying with
her.
Both girls were bewitchingly pretty.
The soldiers fell to fighting over their
possession, when the commander Of
the invading forces passed the inn.
He heard the row, stopped, and COM
manded order. Catherine saw her
chance. She leaned out Of the window
and gave the general one Of her sweet
est smiles. He and another officer
carried the two girls away.
Soon afterward Prince Menshikov,
favorite Of the cZar, and one of the
most powerful men In Russia, came
10 inspect the army. He saw Gather.
inc and took her away from the gen
eral.
Catherine soon had Menshikov uII
der her full control. Then came the
czar himself, Peter the Great. abso-
lutte master OF the empire. He also
saw Catherine and claimed her. She
was vampire who always succeeded.
But Catherine was something more
than merely beautiful woman. Her
judgment and instinct soon made her

COTTON EXCHANGE is A
BUCKET SHOP

In q brief statement in Congress,
Senator w. j. Harris, of Georgia,
charged that the cotton exchanges are
merely bucket shops and are working
great injury to the cotton farmers.
He not only made the charge but
proved it by sworn testimony before
fJsw York Judge, testimony of far
Iner members of the cotton exchange.
Mr.. Horris said:
"For many years the New York
Cotton Exchange has been used prin-
aplly to gamble in cotton futures in
stead of place to buy and sell cot
ton in legitimate way. The farmers
Of the South have los. hillions annu-
ally on account of this exchange,
which has been used to depress the
price of cotton and rob the southern
farmers. For my part, as | have often
stated in the Senate, unless we can
confine this exchange to the legiti-
mate buying and selling actual cotton
anu sup oil Sotsoh 'o
lures favor abolishing the exchange.
Nearly every year they sell cotton
futures amounting to ten times the
number of bales of cotton produced
in the South. Congress should imme-
diately pass legislation preventing the
robbery of the southern farmers, who
have suffered financially more than
any producers in our country"
If any reader of The Advertiser
is in doubt as to what a bucket shop
is let him read this definition taken
from Websters Dictionary:
Bucket Shop-An office or a place
where facilities are given for making
bets in the form of orders or options
based on current exchange prices of
stocks, grain, petroleum, ETC., but
without any actual buying or selling
of the property, stock, grain, etc.
That ETC., embraces cotton and other
farm products.

HENRY FORD AND
MUSCLE SHOALS

While passing through Atlanta, Mr..
Henry Ford was interviewed by the
Atlanta Journal and he expressed
himself regarding Muscle Shoals in
these words:
"f Congress would give me the
right to develop Muscle Shoals, there
would be no need of bonus; I'd pro-
vide good, steady jobs for those boys.
within IL hours after Congress told
me l could take over Muscle Shoals,
would have thousands of men on the
way there to go to work. and prefer
ence would be given former soldiers
and sailors.

are moving heaven and earth to block
the acceptance of my bids, but am
fighting and intend to keep on fighting
until l land the property.
"And when i get, I'll do the very
best l can to develop it fully just as
quick as I can"
Mr.. Ford said the first thing he
would do would be to develop the
manufacture of nitrate for the farm
ers. He said it would be sold to them
at the cost of production plus per
cent. adding it was his policy "never
to ask more than fair profit for what
produce"
The manufacturer said he wanted
possession of the shoals not for his

OPPOSES SENDING
 MARINES TO STATE
Governor of Wyoming Wires Hard- ing-Calls Proposed Action a
 Dangerous Precedent.

Cheyenne, Wyo,. Aug. 1,-Governor Robert Carey of Wyoming tele- graphed to President Harding late last night protesting against the sending of marines to Wyoming to eject alleged squatters from the Tea pot Dome naval oil reserve. The governors message follows
 Have seen press reports to effect marines been ordered to remove cer- tain claimants from lands in Teapot Dome naval oil reserve. If such re- ports are true. would respectfully protest against such action. If any person or persons are in illegal pos session of lands in this field they can be moved by legal process through courts. Such procedure as is con- templated ignores the courts of the nation and establishes precedent whereby any federal bureau or de- partment may enforce it's whims or mandates by military force rather than by legal action. In this instance no legal attempt has been made to remove this claimant. It has not been proven that they have violated any law and it is also possible that their claims are as valid as some of those purchased by the Sinclair in- terests and turned over to the govern ment. Finally l would advise you that no state of lawlessness exists in Wyoming to justify use of armed forces"
