A STOCK EXCHANGE.

The plan of organizing a stock ex-
change is excellent. So long as stocks
are bought and sold. as they will be,
the more quickly the method OF dis
posing Of them to the best advantage
il adopted the better 1t will be for all.
That stock exchanges are used for
speculative purposes, and many per-
sons are inevitably ruined thereby, is
true enough. So are potatoes used for
making whiskey in Ireland. So can the
Juice OF the sugar cane be fermented,
and converted into alcohol. The Argyll
ment urged by some that a stock ex-
change will tempt young men TO ven
ture into undesirable speculations, Is
the foolish and impracticable argument
that young man should he best edu-
Gated by keeping him away from
temptation The best education a
young man can have Is to face tempta-
tons and down" them. The best way
for soldier to meet his enemy is not
to run away from him, but face him.
Every few years on the Mainland
there have been hysterical periods,
during which laws have been passed
forbidding speculation in stocks, grain
or coin. As these letters on free trade
injure commerce, they are either re-
pealed or become dead letters. The
moment business OF many kinds as
sumes certain proportions, exchanges
are more than useful; they are neces-
sary. They will, OF course. be used for
speculative purposes. Indeed all bust
ness has a definite element OF specula-
ton in II. The Chinese vegetable gar
dener raises lettuce. on the theory, or
speculation, that some one will
buy 1t. Sometimes he finds no pur-
chasers. His speculation has failed.
The stock exchanges do not neces-
sarily create business. They regulate
It, II II exists. Able men have tried for
thirty years to establish mining stock
exchange in New York City. Every
effort has failed. Look at the general
market quotations. There is no min
ing list, because there are no substan-
tial mining properties to be dealt with.
A stock exchange does not flourish on
wild cat" stun. The San Francisco
brokers win say that,
There should be here one OF the clean
est stock exchanges in the country.
Its first rule should be that no stocks
should be dealt In where figures are
"played with" In all probability there
will, in the course Of time. be some
very shady transactions by some local
corporations. Men here are quite like
men elsewhere. Vice as well as Virtue
follows the Flag. The men who will
deal hereafter in stocks will not stand
on bed rock values, but on rather a
high scaffolding OF prices. The time
will come when they will he forced to
prop themselves up by various con
trivances."
A stock exchange, managed by men
of character will do much to prevent
Irregularities. Such Is experience else
where. So 1t should be here.

the reading OF the newspaper to the
children is now considered by ad-
vanced educators to be one OF the best
methods of instructlng them, and is es-
pecially commended by the National
Commission Of Education in Washing
ton, the only thing for the people OF
Kappa to do is to petition the Presi.
dent to remove the Commissioners. One
thing is certain. Newspapers are never
read in the schools of Spain.

ture should stimulate our young men

political advancement. President Hos

be training the brain of some boy, in

the future will say: I'VE congratulate
Hawaii on having furnished the coun-
try with President who was born on
the Island of Oahu. The fact that his
grand parents were of Puritan ances-
try, while he has Japanese and native
Hawaiian blood in his veins, shows
the fieXibility of our institutions, and
that the mixture Of races does as well

SECRETARY DAY.

Someone asked Senator Grimes, the
war governor OF the State of Iowa,
and a United States Senator for four
terms, IL the average ability of public
men was not declining. He replied that
you could find in nearly every county
in the United States men who would, If
appointed, make excellent Presidents,
Senators and statesmen generally.
Statesmen needed only some common
sense, he said, and If they had that,
give them an opportunity, and they
became famous.
Secretary Day was an unknown man,
one OF the many thousands of well
trained lawyers, possessed Of good
share Of common sense, respected by
their neighbors, and hardly known be-
yond their county limits.
President Mckinley, his neighbor
and friend, gave him one Of the oppor-
tunities that Senator Grimes mentions
So he at once rose to 1t, acquitted him
self well and in few months became
favorably known to the whole nation
The wicked Spaniards gave Dewey an
opportunity. Does any one believe that
there are not many men in the navy
and army who would have risen to the
occasion II the opportunity had been
offered to any one of them?
II the inner thoughts of very many
of the volunteer officers were revealed,
il will appear that, aside from patriotic
motives, their enlistment was largely
due to desire to find these opportun-
tiles. to secure political advancement
through the reputation of the soldier.
There can be no better comment on
the entire absence OF class rule in
American politics than the selection
OF an unknown man like Mr.. Day to
act substantially as Secretary of State
for nation OF 75.OOO,OOO OF inhabi-
tants. There is no better comment on
Senator Grimes remark, made after
years of observation, that the common
sense sufficient to administer public
affairs may be found in every county
Of the United States.

Carlsbad Water
a Natural Alternative

Carlsbad Water is in no sense
a mere purgative, as most people
believe, but is an Alternative and
eliminative remedy, which dis
solves tenacious bile, allays irrita-
ton and removes obstruction by
aiding nature, and not by sudden
and excessive stimulation, as most
cathartic remedies do. Its action
is certain and cure when effected
is permanent. Not infrequently
patients have to use the Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt, in addition to the
water, as laxative.
Beware Of limitations. The gen
uine Carlsbad Water and Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt must have the seal
Of the City of Carlsbad and the
signature of "Eisner & Mendelson
Co., sole agents, New York." on
every label.

BICYCLES AS BAGGAGE.

Bicycles are now carried as baggage,
without extra charge, on American
railroad lines aggregating over $4,000
miles in length, an Increase of about
10000 miles since last February. Coast
line and river steamers and ferries
having combined length of route of
1856, 900 miles are also carrying bicycles
the same as other forms Of baggage
and without extra charge. The prin-
eipal coast line steamers on both the
Atlantic and the Pacific coasts are in
cluded in this list, and all the big
trans-Pacific lines to China, Japan and
Australia are in line with the same
policy In France all railroads carry
bicycles as ordinary baggage. and the
increase of receipts within the last
year, due to wheelmen's patronage. has
been very substantial. The same effect
is noted in this country, as shown in
the case of the Long Island Railroad
company, which last year carried about
10000 cyclist passengers and this year
about 100000, each paying full first
class fare.

The executive committee of the l.. A.
w. has arranged to have all the official
reports for the present year printed
and delivered to each member of the
National Assembly at least ten days
before the assembly convenes at st
Louis in February. This is an innova-
ton, and is believed to be well devised.
1t will enable the officers and members
of the National Assembly to understand
fully the nature and scope of work
performed by the officers and commit
tees of the league, and to legislate for
the proper government of the organi-
cation, with complete knowledge of
the facts upon which legislation should
be based. The chairmen Of several
committees have responded favorably
to this suggestion, and reports will
probably be in the hands of the presi-
dent by January 10.

L. A. W. AND THE RAILROADS.
The national executive committee has
this to say Of eastern railroads:
In considering the application of Bos-
ton for the 1898 L.. A. w. meet the eX-
ecutive committee has been forced to
regard the hostile attitude of the New
England railroad and steamboat COM
bination and their unpopular practice
of charging an extra sum ranging from
ten cents to several dollars for each BIZ
cycle checked as baggage over roads
running to and from Boston. An l.. A.
w. meet at Boston would be vastly
popular and would probably add $4,000
in railroad fares and freights to the
New England railroads, but l.. A. w.
members argue that this sum, and even
more, might better be paid to friendly
roads running to some western city
than to enrich the Golfers of the New
England combination. A letter has
been sent by the executive committee
of the l.. A. w. to the general passen-
ger agents of several eastern lines to
ascertain, before final decision is reach
ed, whether these lines cannot be in
duced to abandon the obnoxious rule
now in force of making extra charges
for bicycles.

HE TRAPS MUSKRATS.
Groton Boy Has Caught Forty Three
This Winter.

George Stevens, a boy living in the
upper part of the town of Groton, has
caught forty-three muskrats this winter.
He has captured them in simple box
trap made of rough boards nailed to-
gether. about feet long, and having an
iron door made of pointed bars and
opening inward at both ends of the box.
This trap Stevens places in the water
with one of its ends opposite the en-
trance of a muskrat's burrow observed
during the day time. In the night when
the muskrat sallies forth he enters the
box instead of the open air and is
drowned as the box is quite filed with
water.
Some time Stevens has visited his
trap during the night and taken out a
rat and than, after setting it again.

NOTES.

A letter has been received from Pres
ident Plant, of the extensive PLANT
System of railroad and steamboat
lines, covering several thousand miles
of land and water routes in the south
ern and southeastern states, in which
the writer states that the entire system
has adopted the rule of treating bicy-
cles as baggage; that no extra charge
is made for this service, and that cy-
cling travel over these routes is in every
way encouraged.
President Potter is in correspondence
with prominent members of the present
congress with the view of obtaining the
passage of a bill empowering the secre-
tary of the treasury to admit tourist cy-
clists from Canada and from trans-At-
lantic countries into the United States
without exacting the payment or de-
post of customs duties on the wheels
brought by such tourists for their per-
Sonal use.
The use of toe-clips, even by lady rid
ers, is steadily increasing. They make
pedalling easier and the foot pressure
more uniform and more constant; they
keep the foot in place, prevent the slip
ping of pedals at critical times and save
the rider many bad falls and perhaps
serious accidents. Riding with toe-clips
is vastly easier than without, and no
rider who ever used toe-clips continu-
ously for a week was afterwards con-
tent to ride without them.
L. A. w. members during 1898 will
have an advantage, not heretofore pro-
vided, in the form of reduced subscrip-
lions prices to many popular periodi-
| Gals, magazines and papers. Favorable
Club rates" have already been granted
by many publications, and full print
ed list with stated discounts and sub
scription blanks will shortly be sent to
the officers of the several state divis-
ions.
