EASY CORPORATION LAWS.

Publicity for corporations is now be.
| ing suggested as the panacea to pro.
tcCt the lambs from the schemes which
bad men of wealth and bad men with.
out wealth work off on The public from
time to time. Publicity will unques.
tionably prove a very practical safe.
guard, but the Federal Government is
seriously handicapped in accomplish.
ing positive results when the corpora.
ton laws of individual States are such
as to make easy the way of big as well
as heartless interpretations.
The free and easy corporation laws
| of single State can and do offset oft.
entimes the rigid requirements found
in every other State of the Union.
Hitherto New Jersey has been the
chief offender, but the race for reve.
nue. has overcome State consciences
till now the staid old State of Maine,
which has always been easy with for
eign corporations, is now making
special bid for the large combinations
Its annual franchise tax has been re.
duced to $50 on a million.dollar corpor.
alton. West Virginia follows next with
a tax of $40. Delaware $500 and New
Jersey with It's $1,000 ak is now re-
garded as an expensive center of or.
ganrzation.
The Maine law governing foreign
corporations is such that 1t is plain
the State is merely after revenue. The
stock Of a corporation may be issued
for property or services, and the judg.
ment OF the directors as to the value
of the stock is conclusive. the stock
thereupon becoming fully paid and the
holders being under no personal llabil.
ity for corporate debts. The corpora
ton may be capitalized originally or
by subsequent increase to an unlimit-
ed amount. No statements of any kind
or lists OF stockholders are required
The incorporators don't have to 20 to
Maine to incorporate. Maine lawyers
can have corporations ready to do bus.
mess twenty-four hours after The re.
ceipt OF the papers. None of the di.
rcctors or officers. except the clerk.
whom the Maine lawyers will furnish,
needs be a resident OF Maine. Direct.
ors' meetings may be held out of the
State. The corporation can do bust.
ness and have offices in any part OF
the world. The corporation may begin
and continue business with absolutely
no capital stock paid in. !
In a general sense" the Maine law.
yers say, ut may be said that while
the laws of some States, notably New
Jersey and Delaware, limit the corpor.
ate powers to those expressly granted .
by the statutes, Maine corporations
can do not only what the statute ex.
pressly permits, but also whatever It !
does not forbid"
While any State of the Union prac.
tically puts premium on corporations
OF immense capital stock "foated on
a shoestring," endeavors of other
States or Federal authority to guard
against dishonest manipulation are
seriously handicapped, to say the least.

MANS VIEW OF BUSINESS CARES
BY Colonel GEORGE RArHsoNe DYER New York.

No business man likes worry, but II
is an inseparable part o. his exist.
ence. He need not look for worry; II
inevitably comes to him. To worry
about ones business, and tnen in a
moment forget 1t all. is absolutely i'm.
possible. 1t is not in human nature to
be able to do so. The average busy
man assuredly wishes it were.
A mans home is what he lives and
works for. and the greatest pleasure
he has in life is to go home and forget
the worries, great or small, which are
the heritage of the business man.
A mans business is his own and that
OF his business associate, and though
he cannot help thinking he can GER
tainly help talking.
1t is a breach of confidence for q
man to discuss his business affairs
with any one, save only those who are
personally interested.
He goes to his Office in the morning
and transacts his business throughout
the day and as soon as the office
door closes behind him he ceases, the.
oretically speaking, to be business
man.
