The Game of aFreeze-out.'

Says the Territorial Enterprise Virgin
ia City, N. T. y
Freeze-out is a gaming operation, but is
not laid down in Hoyle's book of games.
nor is it mentioned in any treaties on chess,
poker, brag or monte. Freeze-out, as we
understand it, is where paying joint stock
association or company, form some rich.

deprive them of their capital or shares in

do this, managers of the company combine
and agree to make extravagant expenditures

nership or association, to drive away divi-
dends and run the concern deeply into debt,
and to make large assessments, to cheaper
the value of the ccmpany's stock for a time,
and thus compel the poorer class of share
holders to sell at nominal prices, which en-
ables capitalists in the concern to buy up
and monopolize the whole, when the stock
immediat' ly advances in market. Freeze
out then, is what, at draughts, is called a
game Of give away" Its operation is for
the large fish of the company to devour the
minno0s and mussels of the shoals. It's a
breach of trust. In any joint-stock compa-
ny it requires but slight perversions of the
figures of arithmetic to ira sfer profits into
losses, calling for assessments to balance
the ledger
The game offreeze-out is practised extern
sively on change in large cities. A capi-
talist oAning in steamboat or railroad stocks
will throw his shares into market, and sell
at less than the intrinsic value 10 Ill the
stock down. He is then called by stock
brokers' "bear." After this he purchases
at low prices, and makes sham sales at high
prices. to toss up the same stock. He is
then called bull" Bulls" and .Sears

poison of all public enterprises. Leglsla-

There is sometimes principle of anti

this is here individuals take up mining
claims and are unable to work them. and
are unsilling to sell any shares to enable
work to go on. By this the mine is kept
idle and the stock is very near worthless,
for want of the right kind of shareholders
to develop the mine. This is a dog in the
manger policy, which inj ures stockholders

Harmonious Rvhme.

The following correspondence took place betwee
q parshoner, who sent to his pastor present of
spare-rib, and the minister:
My pastor dear, as words are oft
An idle foolish waste,
I send you something tangible
To better suit your taste,
For since poor Adam lost a rib
To win his lOvoy Eve
A spare rib all his worthy sons
Are willing to receive;
So please accept this little gift
thus so humbly send
And though it cOmeth from a hog,
Believe me still your friend.
THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
I cannot hope, my worthy friend,
In words of equal rhyme,
To thank you for your welcome gift
That comes in such good time
For my dear Rib who comes in line
From that our Adam lost
Ayers, that spare ribs in their place,
Are better than the first.
And soon my family Of eight

And bless the kind and generous heart

pardoned brief extract. It is the "Confed.
crate States Almanac, for the year Of our Lord
1862, being the second Of the Confederate
States Edited by 7. G. Summers, D. D., South.
ern Methodist Publishing House." At the
close Of this precious document is a list Of
" memorabilia" 10 which the reverend editor
says, I'VE have taken great pains to avoid er.
rors." Witness his success quote almest al
random:
July l2.-Figbt at Rich Mountain, Va, in
which less than 800 Coniederatcs displayed
Spartan valor In opposing over ten times tbei,
number, by whom they were overwhelmed.
Gen. Garnett was among the killed.
"Sept. l0.--Battlc OF Carnifax Ferry, Viz.

As, ot course, the reverend doctor believes
this, what can the masses believe
