Wall Street Rumor Has Big

NEW YORK, Feb.. Id. The Wall
Street whisper has it that American
Can la dickering with the big four
tobacco companies to supply them
with new tin containers of 35 cigar
ettes capacity. The long-rumored
price cut may come about this way.
It Is worth noting that the manu
facturers have ucd up their high-
priced tobacco stocks and can now
take advantage of the lower prices
prevailing In the last two years.
The Republican A&eembly caucus at
Albany came within a whisker of
taking a vote of confidence on State
Chairman Macy'e leadership. If tnla
had happened It would have busted
tihe Republican majority in the as
sembly wide open. It was headed off
ny snappy work on the part of
Speaker McGinn lea, who saw his own
lob endangered. But this scrap (s
bound to come to life again soon,
Several prominent Wall Street men
are making frantic efforts to organize
big celebration on March 4, either
at New York or as part of the in
augural festivities In Washington
The organizers figure that such a
demonstraltve blowout would give
them a good sendoff with the new
administration.
A bull push Is discussed as a pos
sible contribution to the festivities.
But the question Intervenes "What
with?" -
The election of Landon K. Thorne
as director of the First National bank
la significant of a closer tleup among
ever! large New York banks. Thorne
in already a large stockholder and
director of Bankers Trust and a part
ner of Bonbright and. Company. An
other Bonbright partner Alfred
Loomls Is a director of Central Han
over. Bonbright & Co. has a Morgan
utility tleup.
The New York Federal Reserve
bank stepped into the breach last
week and bought about 30 million
dollars worth of governments in an
effort to offset the continued shrink
age In member bank reserves.
Negotiations are underlay for the
merger of many of the small banks
in New York city Into one or more
larger Institutions. The move has
the warm approval of the New York
state banking department. The small'
banks are liquid enough and perfectly
earn out are unable to earn anything
on their small capitalisation under
presont conditions.
The plan will take a long time ta
work out. The small bankers have
their pride and they take unkindly
to the idea of lesser titles. Also each
of them la suspicious that his Insti
tution might be abolished once the
merger was consummated.
EFFORT TO GRAB
(Continued irora Page One)
submit to a dictatorship In a group
with political alma that called Itself
a "good government congress," with
the result that the working man's
place In the Good Government Con
gress waa abandoned, and the leader
ship now rests with the capitalist, on
one hand, and meddlers on the other.
Jnckson county hss 19.130 regis
tered voters, and at no time has the
Good Government Congress had more
than 1000 supporters present at any
meeting, A resolution presented by
Banka and Mrs. Martin, demanding
the resignations of the officers men
tioned waa passed by the last general
assembly. Commissioner N e a 1 o n.
District Attorney Codding and Judge
Norton would be harking to the chirp
of a sparrow, Nralon said. If they
abandoned their pewta became one
out of 10 voters In the county wanted
them to.
Strength In Country
Ninety per cent of the strength of
the Good Government Congress rests
In the rural sections of the county,
where the Dally News ta distributed
widely and usually gratia. They have
read charges of crime and corruption,
without reading deniala, until their
minds have become poisoned, and
most of thorn truly believe the
charges made by Bank. Their aad
financial state, which makes them
rely on Banks' paper for Information,
and Banks' penchant for demagog
uery and undeniable art of forceful
writing hss created the present polit
ical condition In Jackson county,
which officers admit, Is fast becom
ing serious.
No Proof Offered
That not one lota of concrete proof
has been offered by Banks to sub
stantiate any of his statements has
slipped over the heads of his follow
ers. They know their farm produce
returns little, they know they can't
find work, they know that Interest,
and sometimes the mortgage, la due.
and they want a change. Banks Is
psychologist and leader enough to
blind them to the true cause of their
financial condition, and artfully lay
It at the door of county officers. With
the people becoming blinded enough
to kill the officers, If necessary,
Banks would then be In a position
to replace them with his own men,
and Banks would escape scott free or
ny liability for any crime that
might be committed, while some poor
misled end misinformed rancher
would pay the penblty. . ,
Buob Is the impression of m aver-1
age. Informed person on the political
turmoil in the valley, and of the alms
lurking behind the activities of lead
era of the Good Government Con
gress. The popular demand of a way
to defeat the monster of suspicion
and hate that has grown to a danger
ous size here. Is to spread true and
accurate Information, not only on
Banks' charges, but on the true alma
behind Banks' maneuvers to tear
down the court of the county the
one medium through which Banks
can be made to pay a debt
SALVATlONARIViY
APPEALS TO RICH
TO HELP HUNGRY
With thousands In Jackson county
out of employment and but lltttlc
to look forward to In the near fu
ture, I am making this appeal to
those who are In better clcumstancee
as the best and only way to fully un
derstand the condition of our less
fortunate fa miles Is to place our
breadesrner out of employment and
no employment to be found etill
hungry, helpless children crying for
bread and but little bread to give
them.
Anxious mothers are wondering
where the next meal Is coming from.
If we were In ttielr place what would
we do? There Is but one answer;
we would have to look to our friends
and those who are In better circum
stances. God has blessed some with
more than others, therefore let the
hungry be fed by your cooperation
with the Salvation Army.
Just yesterday one of our local
residents came to the Salvation
Army, having had to secure a pair
of trousers as a loan to enable him
to get down to the Salvation Army
where necessary clothing was given.
This man Is not a bum, neither 1s
he trying to evade work, but he Is
only one out of the many heads of
families who are In the same cir
cumstances, i
In the name of this great country
Jackson county, where thera is still
many tried and true people, I am
making this appeal. We are much in
need of all kinds of supplies and to
meet the needs of our home local
families we are depending on our
friends to come to our aid. Wo are
working In conjunction with our
county.
In an Idaho town a farmer friend
gave the Salvation Army seven hun
dred head of sheep to distribute to
the poor. Now la there some farmers
in our county who will come to the
front and give us some sheep, beef
or pork and farm produce? 1 '
The good Lord. says that we should
give and that In return He would
give us, We are also very much In
need' of cash and would appreciate It
very much if some one send us some
help of that kind. Send In care of
the Salvation Army, Box 467, Med
