NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-As we ap-
proach the first of the year 1t is quite
likely to anticipate the easier money
rates which seem probable thereaf-
ter. All advices indicate that there
Is a large short interest, and that In
some Of the industrials they are hav.
ing difficulty in borrowing the stocks.
Outside interest is still slow. but the
action OF the market is by no means
weak, and we would rather take our
chances buying stocks on soft spots.
LOGAN K BRYAN.
NEW YORK. Nov. 2s.-The market
was very dull today and slight
changes. The bank statement had lit
tie effect. After being published there
was selling, but II did not amount to
much. The statement showed liquida.
ton through the week, and there is
no doubt that the market is in better
shape. The short interest Is large and
on an upward movement would be
forced to cover. While we do not
look for any big rally. we think that
the short side is very dangerous. AT.
ter the first Of the year we look for
a better and more healthy market and
higher prices.

Many proprietary medicines are OF
real value. while some are probably
worthless The public soon finds out
about such things. But the makers have
q perfect right to call attention to their
remedies. the people have a right to the
information or claims laid before them,
and there is no excuse for abridging or
taxing these privileges. Probably tins
scheme of petty and annoying despot-

1t is time to call a halt. and sharp
one, on projects of censorship and inter

pie. and this particular movement IN
that direction is eminently deserving of
repulse and defeat. The anti-publicity

get so far as a vote on the question OF

One Highway to Success.

Washington POST
Quite an animated discussion has been
provoked by d recent attempt on the
part of one of our great men to give
recipe for success in life. His formula
was courage, industry, self-sacrifice-
Then came the controversy Others haQ
reciDes equally high-sounding and
vague. Somebody insisted that constant
labor unceasing effort and so on, WOuld
lead to victory.
In the ears of the irreVerent, it sound

with the chief item omitted-first eaten

about energy, devotion, courage. sleep
less activity and all the rest of it, but
nobody told how to catch the rabbit.
The country sWarns with men who are
capable of sobriety application, cour-
ageOus and loyal adherence to duty, but
why appeal to these qualities which ex
create otherwise? Why not instead Of
high-sounding plautudes, give these
men an OppOrtunltyI OF what avail IS

We confess to the impiety of regard
ing these oracles with contempt They
are about useful as the rumblings of
Delphi or DOdOna-as sympa thetic and

crying for bread: why don't they eat

the utterance of great statesman who
was asked some years ago for an Opin-
ion as is an opinion, and proclaimed the
following majestic rebus:
TO deal with new issues, first discov-

them in such manner as will recognize

the same time. we keep in sight as our

a young man of average intellectual at

"a DEERE a WOLF 2

The Minneapolis Journal refuses to be
frightened by the alleged plan of Wall
street interests to defeat President
Roosevelt by packing the convention
against him. Under the caption wall
street Politics the Journal says:
There has been considerable news
paper speculation and political gossip
as to the attitude Of Wall street inter-
ests toward Roosevelt in 1904 and the
method they would probably adopt TO
secure his defeat 1t has been the gen
eral understanding ard expectation
heretofore that the method employed
against the president would be the NOM
inatiOn of some Democrat who could
secure the support Of the business in
terests." the Wall street schemers ap-
plying that designation to themselves.
The Washington Star, which is a gen
orally we'll informed paper on political
matters. asserts that the latest plan IS
not to attempt to defeat Roosevelt at
the polls. but to head him off for the
nomination in the Republican conven-
ing for uninstruoted delegate in the
north and for anti Roosevelt delegates
In the south. and they apparently rely
upon the use of sufficient money to hold
enough delegates away from Roosevelt
to prevent his nomination
Undoubtedly there are Wall street in
terests which would be glad to defeat
the president for nomination or for cleo
llolL q ne star may De right about their
present plan. 1t is also well enough for
the presidents friends to be on their
guard and not overconfident. But the
scheme outlined By the Star does not
commend itself to our Judgment as
practical plan. In fact. we cannot SEE
any practical or probably successful
plan for the defeat OF Roosevelt for
nomination or election. SO, perhaps, the
one outlined is as good as any.
The activities Of the Wall street
crowd and their apparent confidence in
their success is of interest largely for
the revelation it makes of the COM
Dlcte ignorance of these enemies eff the
president as to his real strength with
