Hy a noted financial expert it has been estimated that American securities held abroad have been reduced from$4,000,000,000 to less than half that in the pant two years. The credit offset of $1,340,000, 000 of American loans abroad further reduced our net foreign debt until, at this rate, the end of the present calendar year is likely to see the United States square with the world for the first time in history, When, under the Payne and Pingley tariffs, did the Wall Street Journal (Republican), ever write such editorial comment as this from its issue of August 1, 1916: "Problem of securing labor is steadily be coming more pressing for American manufacturers. Companies which re now employing twice as many men as their normal quota have room for thousands more but cannot find them"? During the four years previous to Mr. Hughe's administration as governor of New York the totol appropriations made by the state leg. islature aggregated $112,318,126.15. During the four years of Mr Hughes as governor, the total of appropriations aggregated $150,393, 066.33, an increase of $38, 074, 940.38. Yet Mr. Hughes declares he would like to have six months to investigate alleged Democratic ex travaganee in federal expenditures. Capitalization of new incorporations for the first seven months of 1916 in the Eastern States reached the huge total'of $1,690,000,000, as published by tho Journal of Commerce. This is more than 75 per cent of the greatest 12-moiiths record under a Republican admimstra tion. Docs tljis indicate that American investors look upon the coun try s prosperity as "temporary.' The reason assigned by Louis Murphy, in an article in the Des Moines Register, for Mr. Hughes' refusal to talk of domestic matters is that the moment he began to discuss them, "that moment the Pro gressives whom he hopes to catch would be reminded that back of Hughes is the whole galaxy of stand-patters the Roots, Cranes, Pen roses, Gallingcrs, Smoots and Caniions who wrecked the Republican party once by prostituting it to privilege and who, should they be re turned to power, would dominate or wreck the Hughes administra tion."

The expression is trite; the application lies in the opportunity to utilize it. Hack in October 1914, Mr. Raymond Robins, who is now supporting the candidacy o Mr. Hughes, indulged in the following remarks, which, more or less must embarrass him m his present political attitude: "The most skillful, the most courageous, the greatest statesman ship of the last two years in this world was the manner in which Wil son averted war between this country and Mexico. The reason that the blood of American men sons of our homes is not today redden ing the hot sands of Mexico, to serve the interests of a few corpora tion magnates an dspeculators, is due more to the courage and con stancy of Wnodrow Wilson than to any other factor in American life. 1 would count myself poor and small, indeed, if 1 were not able to recognize wisdom, courage, and public service, even if it had been fihown by the chief of an opposing party."

KIB BLE A COMPANY. 35-4M466 SETS 250,000 CHILDREN FREE The signing of the Federal Child Labor bill by President Wilson marks the end of a long hard fight for the protection of the working children of the country from the consequences of too early toil. The House passed the measure in the first half of President Wil son's first term but it reached the Senate too late in the session for it to be enacted into law. This session it again passed the House and when there was shown some disposition to put tin- bill over until the December session the president went himself to the Capitol to tirge its passage before Congress adjourned. It passed the Senate by a vote of 52 to 12. The bill prohibits the shipment in interstate commerce of the products of any mine or quarry where children under sixteen years are employed, or of any factory or cannery where children under fourteen are employed, or children muter sixteen are allowed to work at night, or more than eight hours a day. About a quarter of a mil lion children are affected by the new statute, according to the figures of 1910, who in that year were found at work in mines and factories. It is easy to see that an army of children there will be, as the years go by, f recti from the curse of child labor. It is really a second emancipation proclamation that President Wilson put his hand and seal to when he signed the Keating Child Labor bill. From the point of view of human welfare, it is perhaps the most important act of his administrationr PUTS WILSON ABOVE PARTY The Yellowstone Daily Journal, published at Miles City, Mon tana, recently made a declaration of 'political allegiance to the "best men and measures"; it declared its intention to support vigorously "oodrow llson and the fruits of his administration. The Journal for many" years was issued under the management of Col. Sam Gordon, long oiie of the' wheel-horses of the Republican party in Montana. The colonel four yearj ago became a Progressive, but since has retired from newspaper management. The control of I he paper evidently has been in the hands of parties who have inher ited the antipathies which drove Colonel Gordon some time ago to re nouuee his interest in the party organization with which he was so long affiliated. , " "In the coming presidential campaigu," said the Journal, edit- crially. "the Journal will urge the re-election of Woodrow Wilson Yet. let this not be taken as a declaration for Democracy. Regard less of party affiliations, we believe teh best man now before the coun try for election to the presidential chair is Wilson. And further, we believe that his advocacy of world peace, his foreign policy, his pro gram of preparedness, his red-blooded Americanism, and his admin istration of internal affairs are the wisest policies the nation can pur sue. These are the leading issues and upon them hinges the election, as did the nomination. Time, we believe, will vindicate the greater part of what the president has done. He has been building for the future, and many of his acts d not commend themselves to his con temporaries. But their permanent results will some day be apparent; a temporary loss now veiling a, greater good to come." First llapUst Church Services for Sunday, September 3 Bible school, 10 a. in.

PRESSING CLOTHES IS AS MUCH AN ART AS MAKING THEM Ve claim that to properly and thoroughly press any kind of garment it must be done on a Hoffman san itary steam clothes press ing machine. This method produces the natural body shape in clothes of every descrip tion, raises the nap, brings out the color, gives the garment an appear ance of newness and caus es it to last much longer.
