II is difficult for person not famil-
lar with the appetite for liquor to
understand the frenzy Of the uncivil-
lied Indian with a taste unrestrained
and uncontrolled. There is perhaps
no other passion that viii drive a saw
ase to such extremes as the thirst for
whiskey. Its only counterpart. in
ethical annals. is in the brutal in
stincts of the unrestrained southern
negro. For whiskey, the Indian will
dare any peril. commit any crime. IL
it cannot be obtained without this
extreme. The white man. with rea-
son and intelligence. Is not a compe-
tent judge Of the Indian who yields
to this frenzied thirst After the
habit is acquired by an Indian. he is
doomed ia The case of Peo. the curse
of the hasi, in all its horrors is seen.
Once this man was intelligent. strong

hhSSicAiiN- AOW ne IS wreck, de-
spised alike by the whites whose VIC
ious habit has ruined him. and by
the Indians. who scOrn his abject
surrender to such brutal depravity as
has fastened upon his life. The gov
ernment viii be forced to place the
Western Indians upon the reservations
and restrain them there. if the de-
struction OF their lives and morals
cannot be prevented in any other way.
II is the height of folly TO sacrifice
this entire race of people which is
entitled TO the protection of the gov
ernment 10 the avaricious instincts Of
a few depraved white men who are
not interested in the progress of civil
ization, further than it concerns their
ovl personal earnings, no matter
from what source.

ties and raw material for manufactur-
ing paper are better and cheaper than
ever before. the finished product is
higher, and is reaching still higher.
This is one instance Of the oppression
of trust that is felt directly by the
people. Subscribers TO newspapers

paper. must bear the increased bur
dens imposed by the trust. If the

is now a nOtoriously tllankless busi-

upon a novel plan to rid the town of
bad characters. Any one caught and

His articles do serve one really use
full purpose. They emphasize the
wisdom of the avoidance by small in
vestors of large rates of interest or
of purely speculative enterprises.
All "get-rich-quick" schemes are
disastrous in the long run, and all
schemes Of financial and industrial
promotion which are based on over
capitalization or speculative values
created in Wall street. are sure 10 BE-
failures in the end. The remedy for
the public. however. does not lie in
cliRging 10 coat-tails Of a half-styled
reformer of the Lawson type. whose

vising the public 10 sell one kind Of
inflated securities and buy another
kind Of equally speculative stock with

and federal law Of all corporate bust

pectation that the enterprises which
he joins will be economically and hon

unfair and unjust for a public journal

PERED ABOUT AS HE TRAVELS

DISCUSSED IN THE NEWSPAPERS
WHEN HE ENGINEERS A DEAL %
This love of notoriety is one Of his
motives for writing his sensational ar
ticles and for flooding the newspaper
with singular personal kilograms and
startling advertisements Another Of
his motives he discloses himself.
He has been the partner, agent, and
tool of a small group OF unscrupulouS
and vicious financiers rypified by Mfr.
Addicks of Delaware. He appears TO
have bcen turned down" by this
group Cf promoters or. to have failed
TO &C; Is large share OF profits from
them as he thought was his due. He
has had as the result a personal quar-
rel with them. and is saying TO them:
Gentlemen, 1 will show you whether
all of you together or Thomas ".
Lawson alone is the most powerful. l
will make you sorry that you ever
turned me out of yOur counsels and
erased my name from your profit
sheet \ craving for notoriety and a
seeking for personal revenge are
therefore the motives with which he
writes and not II public spirited desire
to serve the people a an unselfiSh

He is like Quack who, having at
uacted a crowd by a vulgar harangue,
may be able TO point out the obvious
symptom Of a common disease. but
who sells his noxious cure-all for his
personal profit. not for his unsophis-
ticated patients benefit.

Mr.. Lawson knows this as well as
anybody. because he has been. ac-
cording to his own statement, one Of
the most INSCRIPTIONS and notorious
brokers engaged in this kind OF work
But this is not to say that all insur-
ance companies. all banks, all indus
trial corporations, all mining enter
prises. all railroads. all capitalists. all
trusts. are organized attempts to rob
the unsuspecting public.
Mr.. Lawson's articles. on the con-
trary, are 50 violent, so sweeping, SO
undiscriminating. and so irresponsible,
that he may just be said TO give his
readers the impression that all great
hnancIers and financial institutions
are unt-astworthy; and thus he fans
the flame of class suspicion and
hatred This is why the Outlook be-
lieves the Lawson articles are un-
worthy of serious consideration, ex-
cept as curious social and journalis-
tic phenomenon
Various explanations have been
made OF Mr.. L,awson's motives in writ
ing these extraordinary articles. It
is always dangerous to try TO define
the motives Of any individual. and
