The nations honor seems to worry
Coils, Quay, Carnegie, Hanna and the
only patriots of the country. One is in
defiant default of the nation, another
robbed a state treasury, third fur
nishes blowhole armor and bribery, and
the fourth is an all-round fakir with a
presidential candidate in pawn. This
type of men can all be properly placed
in the genus "patrioticus," with the ac-
cent on the 'cus." Bryan very happily
hit them off when they were all talking
about their fear that the law would not
be enforced, while their real fear was
that the law would be enforced. 1t is
said that there is honor amongst thieves.
1t is fair to assume that the patrioti-
cusses came by their honor, such as it
is, from their decided ability in theft.

man and the farmer are fatally handi-
capped. A factory can be shut down or
run on half time, but a sheep ranch or
an orange orchard cannot be subjected
to these conditions. Nature and the
seasons enter in to govern the product.
The ease of entering most agricultural
employments for an annual crop would
be fatal to the trust scheme in farm
ing. When it comes to sheep it is longer,
and to oranges much longer, to get a
crop. Here again is production for
the home market. AS dictated by trans
portation rates, we would be incapable
of resisting the exactions of the trans
portation companies in seizing any un-
usual profits on the one hand or limit
ing the natural crop returns on the
other by any artificial trust scheme.
In other words, the wool men, like
all other agriculturists, stand to do
nothing but lose in the long run by either
protection or bounty. At the same time
they must carry the whole trust load
protection creates in other privileged in
dustries. Protection and special priv
ileges are finally injurious to every one,
its own beneficiaries included.

RULES THE BROKERS
DUTIES OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE
NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.

Presides Over Pandemonium With Calm
Comes to Order"-LiveIy Incidents of
an Ordinary Day In Wall Street.
A new man yields the gavel in the
New York Stock Exchange. He is not
exactly a new man. either, for his face
is as familiar to the brokers as was that
of the late James Mitchell, who was
for so many years chairman of the ex-
change. William Mcclure, who has Just
been elected TO fill the Office first took
his seat under the dull red hangings of
the exchange rostrum Is years ago as
assistant chairman. For two years he
held that position, and then for period
of ten years he was absent, being in the
brokerage business for himself In 1890
he again appeared on the platform as
assistant, and has been there ever since
At the death of Mr. Mitchell he as
sumed the duties of chairman, and was
confirmed in his position at the recent
election.
The duties of the chairman Of the
New York Stock Exchange are light,
but they require of an official as much
tact as would be required by society
queen, as much patience as Job had.
and lot of other qualities that are
equally rare and seldom found COM
bined in one individual When you
have watched Chairman Mcclure dur
ing one day of toll, you are ready to
admit that he has them all.
A few moments before 10 o'clock
Mr.. Mcclure walks into the Exchange
building, mods graciously right and left
as he makes his way to the rostruln,
hangs up his hat and light overcoat,
and sits down with the solemn air of a
minister waiting for his congregation
to assemble. The members are gathered
in groups on the floor, chatting in sub
dued tones and swapping jokes. A well
groomed, neatly dressed, orderly set Of
men they are.
AS the big gilt hands on the wall
clock creep up close to the positions
which mark the opening hour the chair
man rises 1eisurely and advances to the
front of the railing which incloses the
rostrum. Before him on the desk is the
official timepiece Of the exchange. AS
the last seconds of the last minute be-
fore 10 o'clock are being licked off the
chairman grabs his ivory headed gavel
and holds it aloft, his eyes fixed ON the
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-06-19

clock before him. Exactly as the minute
hand reaches ID the gavel falls. The
brokers' day of business has begun, and
the exchange comes to order.
Yes, "cOmes to ORDER is the technic-
al way it is expressed. But such cor
der!'' Any sensitive nerved boiler maker
would be driven mad by it. The stock
brokers' idea of coming to order is for
every man jack of them to begin jump
ing up and down, bowling, yelling,
waving their arms and shaking their ex-
tended fingers in the faces of their neigh
bOrs. The uninitiated spectators think
that they have all suddenly gone crazy.
But they have not. They yell for two
reasons. Some Of them are Offering to
sell stock for half per cent more than
the others are willing to give and the
rest are offering to buy stock for half
per cent less than the others willing to
take. That's all there is to it, but when
from 800 to 600 men are shouting to the
full extent of their lung power it makes
something of a racket.
But Chairman Mcclure does not seem
to be aware of it at all. After standing
for a moment with his eyes wandering
out over the scene of pandemonium he
seems satisfied that the exchange has
really come to order and settles down in
his high backed chair Of richly carved
oak with the calm serenity of a man
who views peaceful landscape after
good dinner. Then, regardless of the
wild clamor that fairly makes the build
ing tremble, he turns to pile of letters
and goes through them with cool DELHI
Grafton. Not even frown ruffles his
forehead. Occasionally he smiles as he
reads missive and gazes meditatively
at the ceiling which vibrates with the
force of the sound waves beating against
it. His letters finished he takes up the
morning paper and glances slowly
through the columns.
Finally some one hands him note
He reads it carolessly and arises, grips
his gavel and calmly welts the desk six
measured strokes. Before he has finished
there is hush the shouting stops, and
the brokers gather in anxious knots.
When all is still, the chairman an
nounces that the firm of So-and-so has
failed. Then he sits down and unCcn-
cernedly begins to write letter, while
the noise breaks loose again. Once in
awhile he rises and summons member
to the desk, and occasionally he stops a
football riot or some other form of
horse play, but it is always with a
quiet, good natured dignity that makes
you think that he must be very su-
peTior person to the men who pay from
500 600 to $50. 900 each for the priv
lege Of juggling with millions on the
floor beneath him. 9. ]. BOwDEN

A VIGOROUS KICK.
H.A.A.C. Athletes Think That In.

justice Has Been Done Them.
There is a vigorous kick on the part
OF many of the H. A. A. G. athletes who
have been training for the annual field
day of the club, set for June 9th On
Wednesday it was decided that there
should be no general athletics on that
day, but that the whole time should be
devoted to the wheelmen. This, the ath-
1etes say, is unjust and savors of parti-
atty. The 9th has come to be known
as H. A. A. c. field day and should be
preserved on that if on no other ac-
count.
Again, the athletes have gone into
training, making their calculations for
the 9th, and now they must needs
change their plans and all on account
of the wheelmen. Why should they be
given preference?
One of the athletes was heard to say
that the present board in control of
H. A. A: c. matters was composed
mostly of men interested in bicycle rae
ing. If things were going TO be run in
that way, he, for enc, intended to re-
sign.

An Ice Fact.


As a chopped ice embalmed fact, the
wages of labor have increased since 1861
in spite of the blather of silverites to the
contrary.
While wages of labor have thus in
creased. because they are paid in gold or
i'm paper and silver measured by the gold
unit-dollar. and because the over produc-
ton of nearly everything has made goods
cheaper. the wage-earner of the United
States can buy more for his wages than
the working man of other nations.
We read this morning an article on this
subject and before reaching our office met
an employer OF men. Incidentally he said
Il am paying working men $500 and S50
