PowIEsHIcK POLITICS.
IGrinnell Herald.1

There is very little doing in the
local political field. If those who are
likely to be candidates are yet ac-
quainted with the fact of the Hkeu-
hood they are keeping it closely guard
ed from their friends. 1t is UNDER
stood that John f. Talbot, of Brook
lyn, will not be a candidate for re-
nomination for the Office of county at
torney. Mr.. Talbot has made very
careful and competent official, he has
guarded the interests of the county as
mucn in preventing costs by Diminishing
cases where conviction was very I'M
likely as by pushing with vigor those
cases in which he was convinced that
the state could substantiate its claims.
He has made many friends while serv-
ing the county as county attorney Now
that he is no longer a candidate, his
many friends in this community would
be pleased to see Grinnell man named
as his successor. Perhaps no one could
be named who would be more accepts
able to the people Of Grinnell and Of
the county than Will C. Rayburn, of
this city. Mr.. Rayburn's friends here
and all over the county hope that he
will allow his name to be used in this
connection and that he will announce
himself as candidate.

TIE RIGHr CROWD.

| Some one asked L.. F. Loree of tbs
Rock Island railroad. said to be the
highest salaried railroad president IL
the United States, the secret of his sue
! cess. His reply was:
~ got in with a crowd of good peo-
pie who We're moving along. l stepped
into the middle of the road and stayed
there, and moved with the crowd"
That's the point. No one gets to the
bargain counter with the crowd that is
going away. No one gets anywhere
with crowd that is standing still. He
must pick out the crowd going his way
join the procession and keep UP with
it. Otherwise he fails to arrive.
There's whole lot of philosophy for
young fellows in Mr.. Lorees explana-
ton. 1t contains the kernel of reason
able success. The young man who
stands still doesn't get anywhere If
he gets in the wrong crowd he lands
in the wrong place. 1t is noticeable
that President Loree got into a crowd
of good people and kept mighty close
to the middle.
Given horse sense and average abil-
ity the rest is all question of the
crowd. a matter of environment and as
sociates. There are two crowds always
waiting for the young fellow One is
headed toward success and respecta-
bility: the other toward what is erron
eousiy denominated good time"
failure and worse than failure. Get into
the middle of either crowd and he will
land all right-or all wrong. Once in
it's hard to break out of the middle
OF crowd.
A man doesn't have to be an angel
to attain reasonable success and re-
spectacle citizenship but he does have
TO be decent and belong In a decent
crowd. No one seeks out .boozer' or
a rake for positions OF responsibility
or trust. Men pick no figs of thistles

or foolish people for a good man. He
doesn't belong there. The place to look
Tor him is with the good people" close
to the middle of the crowd. If a good
man wants to hide from those who are
for him the closer he gets to the
middle of the other crowd the better his
shanees for being overlooked.

bends almost entirely upon those above

BISHOPS IN THE N. &. CHURCH.

| When the general conference of the
| NJ. L. church meets at Los Angeles next
May there is likely to develop some
! particularly sprishtly politics over
the election of bishops. A bishopic
in the Methodist church represents the
pinnacle of church preferment and
the nearness of the general confer
ence is stimulating discussion of can
didacies and fitness. Bishops are
are elected for life. To do the work
that devolves upon the chief servants
OF the church 1t is necessary TO keep
board of active bishops of about
twenty. Deaths and retirements have
thinned the ranks ofsthis board during
the past quadrennium., Death has call
ed Foster, Hurst, Ninde and Parker
and others because of approaching
age and infirmity will be compelled 20
retire. 1t is fairly estimated that it
will be necessary to elect at least
eight bishops at the approaching ses-
sion-six for work in the home fields,
and two missionary bishops
The Boston Z!on's Herald, one of the
leading publications of the church. de-
votes several pages OF last weeks is
sue to a discussion of this important
subject. Here are the splendid quail
ifications they would demand of any
minister seeking this high office:
He must be thoroughly Interested

devotion, judicial poise. intellectual

THE STOCK MARKET OUTLOOK FOR 1904


THE STOCK MARKET OUTLOOK FOR 1907
A good many persons have taken the
| A priori view that as stock market
prices in 1903 have fallen heavily, a
necessary consequence must be a con-
siderable scurtailment of general bus
mess. Ii Is Very easy. however, to
reason loosely on this point. The fig
ures showing the average quotations
on sixty active railway stocks since
1872. which Dun's Review has compil-
ed for many years. indicate that while
prices fell in quite a striking manner
In 1905, they rose in an equally strik-
price of the sixty shares declined
something over 81 in 1903. but 1t had
1902; again the average low price fell
slS.4l in 1903, against a rise of 1867
in 1902. Asa matter of fact. while
the average high price in 1903 was
s24.23, abouye 1900. the average low
price was only .$1.74 below 1901, and
1901 recorded very much greater
minimum average than any year since
1872. The fact is. the fall in stock
market securities represents the elm
nation of fictitious values; but after
that movement had been carried to
what many persons considered its log
ical conclusion. the present levy of
quotations compares very favorably
with the average minimum quotations
of the last thirty years. The fact
would seem to indicate the essential
soundness of the Industrial situation
today, as Wall street is always long
way ahead in discounting the condi-
tion OF general business Furthermore
the clearing house figures of the coun-
try indicate that the loss reported for
1903 was largely the result of decreas-
ed stock market activity. 1t is ques-
ton how far the wiping out of stock
market profits will vitality affect Amer
lean industry in 1904.
There Is fear of political difficulties

mere coincidence. A presidential cleo
