PaEeantry on the Fringe of Famine.

The cost Of the demonstration at Delhi,
India, in honor of the coronation Of Ed
ward VII is estimated all the way from
$500, 900 to $4,000. 900. and it will probably
be nearer the latter sum. In splendor 1t
will far surpass the real coronation cere-
mony in London. This enormous outlay in
the way of official pageantry is in strange
contrast to the Indian famine with which
Great Britain was unable to cope only a
very short time ago, and the rayages Of
which must still be apparent on all sides.

A FALSE

The cry that goes up from Wall street
country TO transact the peoples busl-
ness is about as ldiotic as was the cry
of the Bryanites, who clamored for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver at
the sacred ratio because there was not
enough money in the country to do it's
business. The best proof that there is
money enough to do the business of
the country is that the business of the
country is being lone with money and
not by barter or with poker chips and
brass checks or other convenient substi-
tutes for money. So long as the farmer
can sell his hogs, his grain, his poultry,
his vegetables or his cordwood for
cash there must be money enough to do
the business of the country. So long as
the w~orkingman in the factory and in
the mill is paid off in cash instead of be-
ing paid off in store orders, there is
enough money to do the business Of the
country. So long as the department
stores, the grocers, butchers, bakers and
hotel keepers generally give their pa.
irons coin or currency in making
change there is money enough to do the
business of the country. 1t is doubtful
whether there ever will be money
enough in the country for any consider
able length of time to supply the de
mand from stock jobbers and specu
lators who are kiting in the money cen
ters of the country and soaring high IL
anticipation Of getting rich over night.

President Roosevelt and Postmaster
General PAYNE have lost caste in Mis-
sissippi and the southern press is very
much incensed because they are bent on
making the southern whites accept negro
office holders. Not very many years ago
Mississippi was represented in the
United States senate by two men of
color and the lily white members of the
chamber managed to survive the awful
shock. Not many years back the demo-
cratic federal marshal of the sovereign
state of Arkansas commissioned by
Grover Cleveland served court cita-
lions on white men by colored deputies,
hut that did not roll the white blOoded
Arkansans sufficiently to impel them to
eject the low bred white United States
marshal and his cOlored deputies out of
the Little Rock court house. But times
have changed. The aristocratic patrons
of the postOfice at Indianola, Miss, will
not submit to the indignity Of having
their letter mail contaminated by pass
ing through the hands of a colored post
mistress.

600. That, of course. is estimate What the ac-

Defendants Were Dismissed.
Friday afternoon and all day satur-
day was occupied In the county court
by the trial OF Bert Nichols and Town
Marshal Guy Newlove, Of Chandler.
Nichols and Newlove were charged
with having committed an assault on
the person OF Edward p. Earle, but the
Jury in the case returned verdict OF
not guilty.
Nichols, who was the principal de-
fendant in the case, is manager Of a
coal mine at Chandler, and Earle had
been in his employ. Earle, along with
other employees, had been docked two
hours on time, and as the occasion for
the loss OF time was that Il had rAined
the men objected to the cutting on Of
part oftheir wages when, they claimed,
the loss Of time was not through their
fault. Earle carried his objections to
snch an extent that he was discharged. /.
After his discharge. the evidence indi-
Gated, Earle had made threats to do
bodily harm to Nichols, the manager.
One day last week Nichols and Earle
met In the store and Earle made .
threatening move in the direction Of .
bunch Of pick handles. Whereupon,
and without further ceremony, Nichols
proceeded to hammer Earle up In .
most appoved fashion. Newlove's part

STICKNEY ON STOCKS
Wall Street a Result, Not a
Cause, He Declares.

CHICAGO. Sept. Avail street is
a result, not a cause. Speculation is
not finance. Actual values are not af-
fected because lot of crazy people
buy stocks and thereby initiate them"
These are few of the epigrammatic
remarks made by President A. B.
Stickney, of the Great Western railway,
today, when asked if he thought the
present condition of the stock market
presages financial depression.
II do not see," continued Mr.. Stick
ney, "how the operations on Wall
street can affect the prosperity of this
country, although they make and ruin
many spectators, who buy and sell
without regard to the actual value of
the properties in whose stocks they
deal. 1 think our prosperity will con-
tinue to increase for several years at
least. 1 have many reasons for this
belief, and expect to tell them all to
the public at banquet to the officials
of the Great Western road in Omaha
on Sept. 12.''
Asked if he thought that railroad and
industrial values, as now represented
by the stock market quotations, are in
the main actual values, Mr.. Whitney
replied:
Many of the stocks are too high. 1t
does not make any difference to man
who has bought stock and owns it
what price the speculator pays for 1t,
as it represents SO much income to him
whether it goes up or down."
Mr.. Stickney denied that the Great
Western had been purchased, or that
negotiations are in progress to that end.
