THE MORAL VIEW OF STOCK
SPECULATION.

II seems rather late in the day to argue
as to the morality of speculation in
stocks, yet we find the subject ever and
anon referred to in our exchanges and in
priyate conversation. We fail to see any
distinction between speculation in stocks
and specializing in dry goods or molasses.
Certificates of stock are merely eertiti-
Gates Of ownership, subdivided. A rail-
road or mine is too large a piece Of
property usually for one man to W n
and if one man did W an entire railroad
or mine he would have difficulty in dis
posing Of it readily at its full value-yet
by being divided into shares many peo-
pie participate in the ownership, and
others can do so to the extent they may
desire. In this way the property is In a
condition to be handled, and a man can
dispose of, or increase his interest, be-
tween breakfast and lunch, on any day.
No one can keep a store full of rail
roads or mines, as he can of sugar or
leather, yet there are many brokers who
keep barrels Of mining certificates or
hand, and, in some cases, it would be
better if they were disposed of by the
barrel, but we believe the formula OF
locking them up over night in a safe de-
post company is gone through with.
Railroads and mines are not necessarily
more depraved than other species of
property there is as much inherent
wickedness in potatoes as in railroads,
and we fail to see where the immortality
exists in specializing in the n more
than in the other.
The convenience in handling stocks
renders their transfer easy, and the Ex-
changes fix the market price without the
necessity of the sharp bargainings and
attempts to overreach which occur in
many other more private dealings.
In this particular, stock speculation has
the greatest moral advantage, for the
sharper cannot buy cheaper or sell dearer
than his neighbor. Selling short, which
is considered the most awfully wicked
part of the stock business, is done in
breadstuffs and cotton, and would be
done in every commodity, were it possi-
BILE. 1t is not because of its immortality
that it is not. You sell What you may
not have at present, but which you will
have when your contract becomes due,
and very rarely do these contracts fail to
be kept. Occasionally a corner may pre-
vent the actual delivery Of the stock, but
in extreme cases compensation may be
made in money. Whether the stock is
bought or borrowed for delivery is imma-
terlal as long as there is no violation of
contract.
Every business is a species of betting,
and every merchant in buying goods is
betting on getting an advance, and the
number of failures that occur show that
they do not always bet right. When all
business is suspended as immoral, and
the doctrines of the Communists that we
hold all things in common become the
universal law, then will there be an end
OF stock speculation /; but we fear that
many brokers will have gone to their
heavenly homes several years before the
arrival of this period.

IMMENSE + CRop.

The cotton crop of the United States
for the current year is by far the greatest
that has ever been known, and this great
crop Of $3.50, 329 bales has all been mar
keted at home and abroad, and is open to
no deduction or allowance for exaggerated
estimates. This is one of the principal
causes of the remarkable prosperity of
the Southern States, and also of the ex-
traordinary balance Of trade in favor of
this Republic in the international ex.
changes of the civilized world.

What political crime has Roscoe
Conkling committed that he should
not be consulted as to the appoint
fments in the State he in part repre-
sents? In no other State has Sena-
tor been treated as Mr.. C0nkling has
been treated. The Senator represents
a vast majority of the Republicans of
the Empire State, and deserves well
at the. hands of the party and the
executive. He may be stubborn, will
full and self-confident, but he is the
tablest man in the Republican party,
and it would harm nobody ifhe were
humored to limited: extent. If he
had willed it Garfield would have
been defeated in the State of New
York last year, and thereby the Re
publican party would have lost the
Presidency. Is not a man possessing
such influence worthy of considerate
treatment +? Blaine, though possessing
no such power, is conciliated, and it is
deemed the proper thing to run the
administration according to his notion.
While the Republican party is gilmore
importance than either COnkling or
Blaine, both should have fair treat
ment-thei one as fair as the other
