Don't Speculate.

The market for stocks is low
very low. There is presented a
temptation for men with small in
comes and savings to speculate.
Don't do it.
We are talking to those of small
means who cannot afford to lose.
Those who can are able to look
after themselves. But there is
this to be said: There are various
standard stocks of railroads and
corporations that have been paying
dividends steadily. Such stocks
can be depended upon.
Therefore the market presents a
kind of bargain table, and one
with a little money can pick up a
few shares at low rates, and profit
in the end.
But don't make the mistake of
speculating-buying on the mar
gin. Pay your own shares out
right and lay them away in tin
trunk and draw your dividends.
The man with a few hundred dol
lars can do that to advantage.
When he owns his stock he need
not bother about fluctuations
brought about by influences wholly
unconnected with the condition of
the country.
The country is all right. 1t is
prosperous. Standard stocks are
safe as purchase for investment,
and it is not probable that the
time will soon come again when
they can be bought to such advan-
tage.
Meanwhile, let no one who has
invested his savings in stocks that
have proved to be good dividend
payers become alarmed because
prices have been hammered down
and sell what he has under the
fear that the country is going to
smash.
The country, is not going to
smash. Philadelphia Inquire.

Facts About the Road Law.

There appears to be some sur
prise that more interest is not
taken in the improvement OF the
public roads under the recent leg
islation in this State, says Phila-
delphia Press. An insignificant
number Of applications have been
made for State aid, and some of
these are without proper local
authority.
It is too early, however, to con-
clude anything from this. 1t is
evident the law is not fully under
stood, and the reluctance in so
many localities to the expenditure
of any cash whatever in the work
on roads is an obstacle. While
the State will pay two-thirds of
the cost Of road building carried
on under it's supervision, one-sixth
must be paid by the township, and
one-sixth by the county. This
makes necessary the expenditure of
some cash by the local authorities,
where heretofore in many instances
the citizens have worked out their
road taxes by a few days labor on
abe highways, from which little or
no permanent value has been OBJ
tanned.
What townships and counties
may be called upon to pay in a
year will depend of course, upon
she number Of miles of road built
md the cost per mile. Senator
Roberts, of Montgomery one of
tho %-+hore &c tho now rcad law,
and who is quite familiar with the
question, does not think the cost
per mile should ever exceed So, 900,
exclusive Of grading. He esti-
mates that it is possible to keep
within this limit if crushed stone
car lee delivered upon the road to
be improved at cost not exceed
$1.25 cents n ton. He also ad-
vises that no township shall build
more than one mile of road a year
unless it is wealthy, but this is
wholly d matter of discretion and
finances.
The proportion that township
would have to pay on mile of
road costing $4,000 would be 1888,
and q similar amount would be
paid by the county. Some town
ships would not feel this at all and
could readily pay their share of
several miles of road. There are
many others that will never be
willing to pay even this small pro-
portion for the work, and as they
must take the initiative if there is
TO be road improvement for them
they are not likely to get much ad-
vantage from the recent legislation
The benefits will come to the en-
terprising and progressive town
ships whose people are willing to
CAl,Al g f-G : I-,,.......~I ,.......s each
year for permanent benefit.
II is likely To ne several years
before the real advantages Of the
new law are well developed. The
work can only be done gradually,
brt when well started it will have
most gratifying results, and it will
be a poor township indeed that
does not make use Of the generous
provision for State aid in an i'm
proyement Of SO much importance.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

From our Regular Correspondent0
Washington, August, 10 1908.
Editor Press
Reports received recently from
Bogota, to the effect that the Pan
anna canal treaty will not be rati-
fed without amendment, are caus-
ing the President and the friends
of the Panama canal no little
anxiety. President Roosevelt, as
do most persons sincerity in favor
of canal and familiar with all the
conditions, regards the Panama
route as by odds the most desirable
for an interoceanic canal and up
to this time it has been believed
that President Marroquin would
find way to effect the ratification
of the treaty. 1t now appears
that the representatives of the
transcontinental railway COM
panies have been doing yoeman's S
work in Bogota and have succeed
ed in pursuading the Colombians
that the treaty, as framed and rati-
fed by the United States, will
prove inimical to their interests.
OF course the slightest amendment
will necessitate the reconsideration
by the United States Senate,
which reconsideration will be at
tended with as great difficulty as
was the ratification. Senator
Morgan, of Alabama, declares that
he has his guns primed for another
battle and that he can talk ever
longer in opposition to the original
ratification. AS will be remember
ed, only a special session with
nothing to pervent it's lasting all
summer served to discourage the
veteran Albanian last spring and
he will be quick to appreciate that
with a presidential campaign in
prospect Congress would be unwill
ing to prolong the approaching
session for the sake of dozen
canals. The Senator from Ala
bama also claims to have secured
even greater support than he had
last spring and in view of this
dubious prospect the President and
the officials of the State Depart
ment are much discouraged.
One of the most important re-
suits of the postoflice Investigation
Will be the concerted attempt
which will be made by officials of
the administration to secure Con-
gressional authority to completely
reorganize the auditing service of
the government. At present it is
the custom to appoint an auditor
for each department and in most
instances such auditor is furnished
offices in the department to which
he is assigned. lie is in no sense

such department, however, and at
the same time is removed from the
direct supervision of the secretary
of the Treasury. The new plan
contemplates the erection of a
building for the auditors, imme-
diately opposite the Treasury De-
partment, with which it will be
connected by tunnel. There all
auditors will be given Office room
and the condition will be to audit
the accounts from II purely pro-
fessional standpoint, unbiased by
the environment of the department
incurring the expenses. At pres
ent the auditor in each department
has assumed powers out of all pro-
portion to the original intention of
the makers of the existing law
and to that fact is ascribed some
of the scandalous corruption in the
postal investigation. This new
move has the approval of all the
secretaries of the treasury and of
the President.
