The February statement of the Baltimore

the entire system was s949 100, an increase
Of S6i9, Geo. The net increase of the Balti-
mere and Ohio net earnings, not including
those OF the Southwestern for the first
eight months Of the fiscal year was $685.. =
$40. The preferred stock of this company
is selling below so. and the earnings. after
all fixed charges, are at present at the rate
Of more han II per cent on this stock. The
earnings on the common stock, after de-
Quoting the full per cent dividend on the
preferred are sufficient TO assure dis
bursement in the not very far distant
future even ii conservatism prevents an
immediate dividend. The Baltimore and
Ohio is one of the systems that will profit
most by the fine boom in the coal trade,
and the general large advances in freight
rates not only on coal, but on all classes
of merchandise. The Baltimore and Ohio

The Missouri Pacific statement was not
given out until late yesterday afternoon,
and then not in such form that much can
be learned as TO its real significance. The
net earnings showed an increase for the
year of SS75,4 which is equal to some
thing like . per cent on the stock. The
surplus is understood to have decreased
500. 277, and the statement is made that
this is due TO the charging off OF bad ac-
counts, though why there should be any
such heavy charge of this kind is not clear.
There was earned for the stock during the
year. after deducting all charges, s1,156,
900. or about IL per cent No action was
taken at the meeting regarding dividend.
and apparently none need be expected for
some time TO come AS to the prosperity
OF the system, however. there can be no
question, and there are many careful in
vestors that consider the present price of
the stock entirely too low.

The report of the Third Avenue for the
quarter ending December 81. Just pub
lished, is rather a raking over OF dead
ashes, in view of the things that have
come to light since that date. 1t is worth
while noting, however, that the net earn
ings of the system showed a decrease for
the quarter compared with those of the
same period year before. The report
was well enough received in the street.
or, at least, the stock made good net ad-
vance for the day Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit advanced TO 20 SIS. and closed at 69 rs,

Rubber common stock was one OF the
few weak securities. II tumbled in a

Sugar was somewhat weak during the
morning hours, getting as low as 102 "a.
but in the hour before the close there was
a renewal of buying in it which sent the
price back to 104 3-s. One opinion is as
good as another regarding the next i'm
portant movement in the stock, but it has
held its own since its recovery began with
a persistence that is not suggestive of
weakness in any way.

Atchison preferred was perhaps the most
conspicuous stock on the list yesterday,
with a steady advance to 6S IL, the high
est price ever reached by it. The state
ment may be made on good authority that
there was heavy buying of the stock for
Western interests during the greater part
of the day, and it is known that general
commission business in it was exception
ally good The common stock was also
strong getting as high as % "a. The ex-
pectation OF another wonderful monthly
statement by the company seems 10 be the
reason for the strength of the stock, in ad
dition to the understanding in usually
well-informed quarters that the dividend is
to be increased. The present rate of earn
ings on Atchson preferred is actually be-
tween 5 and 10 per cent, and there is no
reason to doubt that the full year will show
very nearly II not quite S per cent.

nings Bryan. AS in the campaign four
years ago 80 now great political party

and thus undermine and destroy the

vency and integrity. The commercial
advantage to our government Of the
maintenance of the nations credit upon
the firm and secure foundation of the
gold standard is illustrated by COM
parison of the bonds of the United
States with those of Mexico. United
States bonds formerly drawing and
~ per cent have been refunded at 2 per
cent and are today quoted at 1O411a, or
~ cents above par. Mexican bonds
upon the silver basis draw 5 per cent
and are quoted at 42 or 58 cents below
par. Not only has the credit of the
national government been strengthened
by maintaining the gold standard but
the benign influence of sound
currency has been felt in every
department Of commercial and indus
trial life and has given us four of the
most prosperous years known in our ma
tion's history. It is prosperity that
reaches alike the man on the farm and
in the factory that has started anew
the wheels Of industry and has made
glad the hearts of honest toilers every
where, bringing gloom and disappoint-
ment to none save false prophets Of
calamity.
The only question confronting the
voter is this: Does he want a change?
Does he want to
xicanize the
United States? Does he want to de-
stroy that which is the foundation, the
solid rock upon which rests the whole
fabric of our nations prosperity? Does
he want to supplant prosperity with
poverty? Does he want industry to
give place to idleness? If so vote for
Bryan and fusion will indicate this pre-
ference. The William Jennings Bryan
of 1900 is the William Jennings Bryan
of 1896, who was thus characterized by
Carl Schurz, in his famous speech at
Central Music hall, September 3, 1896:
"Mr. Bryan has taste for Scriptural
illustration. He will remember how
Christ was taken up on a high noun
tain and promised all the glories in the
world if he would fall down and wor-
ship the devil. He will also remember
what Christ answered. So the tempter
now takes the American people up the
mountain and says, 4 will take from
you half of your debts, if you will wor-
ship me- But then brave old Uncle
Sam rises up in all his dignity, manly
pride and honest wrath, and speaks in
thunder tones: Get thee behind me,
Satan. For it is written that thou shalt
worship the God of Truth, Honor and
The Conservative, 1900-11-01
Righteousness, and Him alone shalt

GhOu SorVo."
Today Bryan stands for the same va
gary in finance for which he stood when
u.o,.u., SO bitterly arraign-
ed by Schurz. He
has not made single retraction of any
thing he advocated then. Instead of re.
traction he has made an emphatic reit.
GRAFTON. IN his speech at the Tammany
meeting, October ~, he said:.
"The democratic party is applying
familiar principles to new conditions,
the republican party is removing the
ancient landmarks. In advocating BIZ
metallism we advocate financial sys.
tenn whose usefulness is attested by
thousands of years of history as we'll as
by our own national experience and by
the past platforms of the republican
party and all other parties. In advo-
eating the greenback we are advocating
a money first issued by the republican
party, approved by the supreme court
and never condemned in a republican
platform. In advocating an income
tax we advocate system which receiv-
ed the sanction of Abraham Lincoln
and which is now practiced by the lead.
ing nations of Europe. In opposing
government by injunction we are sim
ply defending the jury system which
has been described as the bulwark of
English freedom, and it is as important
here rs in Europe"
In 1896 the intelligence, honesty and
patriotism of the American people re.
c volted against

it meant dishonest currency, a corrupt
and dependent judiciary, increased COM

alysis. Organism today is precisely
what it was then. The case against it
is even stronger. Today, in view of
present prosperity, it stands convicted
of all that was alleged against it in 1896.
Shall we accept now what our con-
science forbade then? Shall we endorse
the certificate of good character given
Mr.. Bryan by his friend, Richard Croker?
Will the voters Of this country place the
stamp of approval upon this open ALI.
ance between financial lunacy and civic
lewdness3 If Organism alone was dan.
gerous and a menace to the peace and
security of the republic, is not the peril
all the more intensified when with the
ignorance, incompetency and hypocrisy
of Organism are linked the viciousness,
dishonor and reeking corruption of
Crokerism? Can it be that "Great is
Tammany and Croker is it's prophet"
