Currency Bill
The currency bill which has been
introduced in both houses of con
gress is being discussed in every
town and hamlet in the land. The
thing that puzzles so many is that
the bill deals with our greatest
problem in such a simple and effec
tive way. While it takes the pow
er of controlling our finances abso
lutely out of the hands or even the
influence of Wall St., it neverthe
less will prove a great blessing to our
banks and, through them, to all
legitimate business enterprises, and
it will place the banks more com
pletely under control of the gov
ernment than they have ever been.
The two main points of the curren
cy bill are, therefore, absolute gov
ernment control of the money of
the country and the automatic ex
pansion or increase of money accor
ding to the requirements of busi
ness.
The Tariff Bill
Washington, D. C., July 28,
1913.-The tariff bill is now before
the senate for debate. It is be
lieved that this bill will be debated
by the senate until Augus t 15th.
The President is very certain that
it will pass by a substantial majori
ty.
The democrats have 5 members
in the senate, but it is very likely
that one or both of the Louisiana
senators will prove traitors and
vote against the bill, so that 49
democrats will be left to pass it.
There is some doubt about Schaff
roth of Colorado and Newlands of
Nevada. If these two should go
so far as to vote against the bill, it
is very certain that Poindexter of
Washington, "progressive," will
vote with the democrats, thereby
making the votes stand 48 for, and
48 against, the bill, causing a tie.
In that event, vice president Mar
shall will give the deciding vote
and pass the bill.
It is quite likely that one or more
other progressive votes will be re
corded in favor of the bill, viz., by
senators LaFollette of Wise., Bris
tow of Kans., Cummins of Iowa,
and Knapp of Minn. These sena.
tors left the republican party on ac
count of the Payne-Aldrich bill,
and if they should vote against the
democratic measure, which is a
great improvement on the present
tariff, they would then be voting
for the existing bill against which
they so bitterly fought four years
ago, when Aldrich, Cannon &Co.
were putting staun:-pat measures
through congress with a high hand.
These progressive senators will
have to confess that they are un
mitigated demagogues, and that
they are hypocrites and sham pa
triots if they vote agi.st this bill.
President Wilson is receiving the
most stalwart support from the
public that any president has re
ceived in fifty years, and any dem
ocrat or patriot who cannot ap
prove the leadership of the presi
dent should certainly have his san
ity, patriotism, or intelligence ex
amined by an expert because he is
evidently wrong in one or more of
these points.
Old Hickory Chips
Despite denials, there's an idea
that some of Mr. Roosivelt's friends
don't like the outlook.
That currency bill is alright, even
if it has incurred the support of
Andrew Carnegie.
Possib'y the Mexicans know what
they are trying to do as well as any
body else, because nobody knows.
With $2,800,000 to expend on
good roads within the next two
years, Illinois begins to get rid of
that backwoods feeling.
"Sing Sing is a disgrace to New
York," shrieks an exchange of that
city, but then so, too, are a lot of
its guests.
The wolves keep the bulls and
bears on the jump in the Wall St.
jungle.
A Georgia boy has been paroled
after serving two years for stealing
a bottle of pop. It is under§good,
however, that this dangerons crim
inal will be watched closely.
Some people take themselves so
seriously that others look on them
as a joke.
There is always plenty of room
at the top because many who get
there become-dizzy and fall off.
The ball player who makes a
timely hit is greater than Napole
on at St. Helena.
Until Dave Lamar came along
we all thought Dr. Cook was some
liar.
Where's the man who complain
ed that the Senators couldn't find
any lobbyists?
Is it not about time for the col
leges to confer some more degregs
on Col. Roosevelt?
As we understand it, the demo
cratic party does not propose to
raise all incomes to $3,ooo, but to
tax all over that amount.
It is indeed a wet day when the
British suffragists don't burn some
thing.
Col. Roosevelt has secured per
mission to carry a pistol. This is
the first time we believe that he
ever asked permission to do
anything.
There is a growing suspicion
that Congress will make a lavish
appropriation this year for a com
modious annex to the Ananias
club.
It is fine to receive a vindication,
of course, but it is a whole 1pt bet
ter never to need one.
By holding ice to its bulb, you
can make the thermometer a pleas
ant companion.
"Save me from my friends"
should have been the cry of ex-king
Manuel when the duchess Carl The
odore of Bavaria recently fitted out
a ship with arms, ammunition, etc.
to help him in regaining the crown
of Portugal. If Manuel realizes
when he is well off he will stay
rgiht where he is and say "noth
ing doing!"
This is the hot season of the
year, when the house-fly is the
thing most in evidence. We be
lieve it was John Ruskin who de
scribed the fly as the "queen of the
air." From our own experience
we should call her the queen of the
rubbish heap!
MORE
money is saved by depositing it in a good, safe,
strong, reliable
BANK
at 4 per cent interest, than there is by investing it
in some get-rich-quick scheme. A promoter comes
along wilh a good line of
TALK
and picks up your hard earnings which is likely to
be the last time you will see them, then
BY
the time you have gathered a little more of the
worldly goods unto yourself you have learned cau
tion, carefulness, business ingenuity, financial fore
sight, and many of the things that go to make up
the successful business man, and instead of buying
an automobile for the next promoter that comes
along you deposit your earnings in the
First National Bank

The Libby Opera House has in
stalled four new electric fans. These

Augustus Walker has decided to

cash between now and Monday.
