DEMOCRATIC PROSPERITY VERSUS
REPUBLICAN DISASTER

When Woodrow Wilson went into of
flee as president in 1918. the estimated
wealth OF the United States was $4,000,
1000. 0oO when he retired at the end OF
eight years, it was $780, oOo, O0O, 600, gain
Of S215 200, 600 600.
The present estimated wealth of the
United States is 1925. 600, 900. 900. showing
a decrease Of $4,000. 100000 in the fifteen
months republican administration has
been in power.
These figures, were recently stated by
Senator King, (Dem. Utah.) upon the
floor OF the senate. They are. approx
mately correct.
The greater part II this loss has been
sustained by the farmers of this country
in land values. agricultural products and
live stock values, although part Of
this loss has fallen upon every industry
and business and upon every form Of
property values.
All the arguments that can or viii
be made by republican speakers cannot
wipe out or materially change these
figures They are a concrete illustration
within the understanding OF everybody
OF what It means in the way OF prosperity
TO have a democratic administration and
what 1t means in the way of disaster to
have reactionary republican administra
ton.

thousand persons in this country and
abroad into buying degrees" Of all
kinds. It was proved the authority
which they claimed for working the

claimed as authority for comforting the
higher degrees was an organization
originated by Thompson himself.
Witnesses came from all over the

The following pertinent statements
published by the Maine Forest Service

Every motorist IN Maine has a per-

Good roads are essential but--Only

They are an eye-sore to the traveller.

Forest fire prevention is civic duty.
It Is also good business. 1t pays to be
careful.

OLD MASSACHUSETTS
REMAINS In HARBOR
Wreck Sunk In Target Practice Was To
Have Been Removed, But Pilots Ask
That II BE Left There.

Because Of the wishes of those most
concerned, the bar pilots. shipping inter-
ests and civic organizations, the chief
engineer of the United States Army has
given assurances to the people Of Pen
sacola through the chamber of commerce,
that the wreck of the Massachusetts, win
be allowed to remain in Pensacola har~
Dor.
With the idea that the old wreck, sunk
in Pensacola bay during target practice
here during the world war, was an i'm
pediment to sea traffic, the war depart
ment decided to have it removed Bar
pilots of Pensacola, however, since the
Massachusetts, has been in the harbor.
have found it of great convenience. serv-
ing as a guide, rather than a hindrance,
and recently petitioned the government
to allow it to remain, instead of removing
it, at considerable cost, as was contem-
plated.
In the petition, bar pilots explained that
they unexpectedly found the old bulk Of
material aid in navigation, as It served
as landmark, both by day and by night,
and that it was not in the way of nav
gation.
Another reason for the wish for its
retention was that in firing. the range
had been established by the wreck.
While the movement for keeping the
old vessel in the harbor was started by
the bar pilots, the petition was signed
by many citizens, and by the chamber
of commerce, who received telegram
Saturday from the office of Congress-
man ]. H. Smithwick, in Washington, in
which assurances were given that the
war department would allow the Massa-
chusetts wreck to remain where 1t is.
Before the wire from Washington was
received, the following letter was received
from Sam Sanborn, secretary to Con-
gresham Smithwick, saying that he had
taken up the matter officially with the
government, and had been assured that
an effort would be made to find out If
the petition could be granted. The tele-
gram Of Saturday followed, with assur-
ances from the war department that the
wreck might remain in the harbor, ac-
cording to the wish of the pilots.

dramatic and overdrawn to me. The
driver was separated from Us by the
usual glass partition and thought he
must have sharp ears indeed to hear
what we were saying. And he hadn't
once turned his head in our direction.
The thought crossed my mind that
perhaps Mr. Drake was not averse to
painting the lilly and guiding the rose"
a bit in this expedition OF ours, and
that he might either be having a little
quiet amusement at my expense or in
duIging his own vanity in trying to i'm
press me. He could very easily do so
and be none the wiser. for. OF course
I knew that there was need for precau-
ton in the transfer OF the paper. But
the degree of care necessary was en-
tirely in Mr.. brakes hands.
A feeling Of pique stirred in my heart
at the thought. Woman-Iike ionged to
show this man that I wasn't such a
novice in handling important matters
as he must think me. and also that 1
had penetrated his subterfudge, but there
was no opportunity for me to do either
I must play the game out until he, my
superior officer just now, should release
me.
The taxi rolled smoothly along, and
as smoothly ran Mr.. brakes conversation.
Fortunately for me, he gave me no
chance for other than monosyllabic re-
plies. I'm afraid I would have made
but a poor showing If had been obliged
to keep up my end Of the conversation.
The old vague, fascinated fear Of Allen

first met him, came over me again. 1

SCHOOL SAVINGS CENSUS STARTED.
The census on school children and their
savings taken each year by the Savings
Bank division OF the American Bankers
Association, has just been started It
will cover all corners Of the country and
constitutes the nations annual authori-
tative test as to the progress Of habits
Of thrift among the youngsters, the data
for last year having been Incorporated
by the comptroller Of currency Of the
United States in his annual report.
The rapid growth Of previous years,
both in the number of children opening
accounts through school savings banking
systems. and in their total deposits, have
led to the annual returns being looked
for with keen interest among the many
hundreds OF thousands of children par
ucipating in the movement. 1t is ex-
pected that the number of young de-
posltors this year will pass the million
mark. In the school year Ie19-1920 the
returns showed 1862. 600 children saving
through school systems, with total de-
posits Of s.. SOC. 600 In the year 1920
1921, these figures increased to 800. 800
children. with deposits of more than
81, 900. 600. The report on the present
years figures al be made shortly after
August first.

GREAT DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP

ON TARIFF.
The old Spanish proverb, ITS a waste
of lather TO shave an ass would seem
to apply to the effort expended in criti-
cising the pending republican tariff bill
because it is absolutely certain that
the bin with it's multiplication Of iniqui-
ties, taxing everything from the safety
pin in the newborn infants abdominal
bandage to the tombstone in the cemetery
will be passed.
The democratic analysis OF the various
schedules, however, are justified by the
by the fact that the people are entitled
to know and to understand the size Of
the mountain OF taxation and the indie
fensible policy under which it is levied
No other tariff bin has been so thor
oushly analyzed, dissected and vivisected

tensible policy OF protection responsible

have been most prominent in exposing the
weaknesses, Inconsistencies, fraud, and
