GEORGE D. WHITE.
In MemOrianl.

George D. White died at his home
in Julesburg last Friday afternon,
September 6, after protracted illness
of typhoid fever. Deceased was aged
80 years, 6 months and 10 days.
Mr.. White was born in Bushnell.
Illinois, February II, 1863 When 8
years old his father died and George
was sent to Pottawatomie, Iowa, where
he lived with an uncle until 16 years of
age. He then returned to his old
home in Illinois and lived with his
mother until the spring OF 1887, when
he, in company with his brother
Charles w. came west in search of a
home and located in the eastern part
of what is now Sedgwick county, Col
orado. He selected a piece of govern
ment land and farmed it for several
years. During this time-in 1SS9-he
was elected county commissioner and
served two years with honor to him
self and credit to the people.
During the summer and fall of 1889
Mr.. White formed the acquaintance of
Carrie w. KortZ, and on December 10,
1891. they were joined in marriage.
In 1895 Mr.. White moved his family
to the western part of Sedgwick coun-
ty, where he resided until last spring.
when he moved to Julesburg and en-
gagged in the livery business.
About five weeks ago Mr.. White was
stricken with typhoid fever. Then
began the heroic struggle for life, in
which brave man battled manfully
to overcome the grim monster-death.
In this battle death finally gained the
victory, although the man was aided
by everything within the grasp Of
fond relatives and expert medical skill.
The end came peacefully-as it always
does to those prepared to die. He died
as he had lived-bravely, peacefully,
Gel tain of the future.
Mr.. White was consistent and
faithful member of the NJ. E. church,
and his funeral services were held in
that church Saturday afternoon. The
burial was in the Julesburg cemetery.
The services were conducted by Rev.
Hooper and were very largely attend
ed-all the business men closing their
stores to give honor to the dead. The
| floral offerings were many and beauti-
full.
In the death Of George d. White
this community suffered an irrepara-
bic loss; he was an upright, honorable
citizen: Il man whom any man might
be proud to call friend. His family
life was ideal; he was a kind and con-
sderate husband, a loving and indulg-
ent parent. The griefstricken wife and
children have the heartfelt sympathy
of the entire community. Their great
loss finds sorrowful echo in the
breast of every man and woman in the
community. The loss to all is great;
the sorrow is general.

THE SPECULATION CRAZE AND ITS DANGERS.

II something does not check the wild specula-
ton which has been in progress for little
time the New York stock exchange the country may
prepare itself for crash that will be felt the
continent New York is the financial heart of the
country and any disturbance Of serious nature there
will always be felt to the extremites
Stocks have been worked up by curious pro-
cess to dizzy heights compared with their position
only few months ago. Many of these stocks were
practically vaueless at the beginning the big bull
movement. Without any changes in the properties on
which they are based or any apparent for the
sudden RISE yet they have gone higher and higher
til even familiar with the operations manipu-
latons OF the market freely confess that they
tonshed and mystifed at the results
German fnancers say that going through
the disastrous speculative experiences that
brought crash in the Vienna bourse in 1878 London
veterans in the money market of the world look Tor
ultimate reaction that will be notable as IA catas-
trophe the current movement Is remarkable as a
boom. Not few of our own soberer heads in Amer
financial circles viewing the existing situation
with alarm.
This speculative era, however, is only the natural
outgrowth of Mr. McKinleys reelection. That result
was notice to the nation that attempt whatever
would be made TO check the development the trusts
or of syndicates, of huge combines and monopostic
ventures, in any wise Interfere with booted and
spurred money power firmly seated in the saddle and
riding like one mad. The spectators and mRnipu
lators their opportunity and began operations
without delay. The result has been unprecedented
era of neutrality-suspicious. pure and simple
which is now reaching the eliminating point
We often told that Wall street. or the stock
exchanges, can not and will not afford to allow the
country to approach panic at this time But there
are some things that the money power can moi
accomplish The spectators care nothing for the
country when 1t to issue of their own gain
The bulls will send stocks skyward on fictitious
grounds IL they can do SO and the bears will pull them
down to the ruin of everybody else whenever they are
abe to accomplish such movement.
The significant and alarming reelection about the
present situation is that all panics, crashes have
been Immediately preceded by just such feverish pc
RODS OF speculation as we have been recently witness
ing The reaction is almost inevitable
We can only hope that greater conservatism will
prevail hereafter and that prosperity will
not receive the rude shock suggested II would not
surprise thoughtful observers of current events IL the
latter years of Mr. McKinleys second term showed as
great disturbances and depression in the financial and
industrial world as the beginning showed prosperity
and great promise.
