not our aim to initiate stock under the guise
of speculation, nor simply to advertise our
business, but the sole object is to make

all persons acquainted with our history,
that the end will well Justify the means.
The entire capital stock oil the corpora.

present stockholders to retain one-half oil
this number of shares, and TO make the
necessary deposit of $40 for each share held
by them. If any or all of them be unable
TO raise the required amount, then they
will deposit the amount required for the

Popular credulity runs that the presi-
dent is the most powerful official in THIS
country. But ne is not now whatever he
once was. According to the way leGisla-
ton is now secured the president is q clerk
and the speaker of the house Of representa-
tives his boss, as well as the boss Of the
government generally. The money in the
treasury is the chief aim Of congress and
some congressman. All else is mere abb
straction. No orator 10 either branch could
hold a quorum ten minutes unless mon y
was at the bottom Of his remarks, Let one
start in upon 'the constitution, "the state
Of the country" "our foreign relations, y
"Normonirm," or anything else, and they
will wait five TO ten minutes to see II there
is any "Money" in what lie is going TO say,
and II not, there will be a general hustling
ont Of front and side doors. Half the mem
bers will Set too insuTerably dry and the
other half too sleepy TO remain another
minute longer. All bills ,or taking money
out Of the treasury must originate in the
house. That says the constitution Ia
90 many words. And according te
the laier-day rules Of procedure
in that body bill must be reported from a
committee before 1t can be considered. One
cannot get up and read bill and siraightWaJ
