THE WIZARD WHO WENT BROKE.


Daniel j. Sully, having attained his
ambition to corner the cotton market,
and incidentally raised the price of the
commodity from seven to seventeen
cents a pound, is going to try to get
cigarette money out of a settlement
with his creditors
Sully is fine type of the wizard
produced by modern conditions in the
speculative market. Having some
money at his command and wire
edge nerve. he started out fifteen
months ago to make his coup. He ac-
complished everything he essayed.
There is no manner of doubt that at
times within the past three montbs
SulIy owned cotton worth seven or
eight million dollars. He was hailed
as a wonderland he began to believe
it himself until he tried to turn some
Of his millions in cotton into cash.
L
ly find in dealing with a fictitious for
tune. He owned plenty of cotton which
was held to be worth a great deal Of
money, but his fortune was contained
in the margin between the actual value
of the cotton and the price to which he
had forced the market quotation. If
he tried to sell the commodity would
go back to the price at which he had
bought. Therefore, -. during some
months he has been in the position of
a man who wanted to realize on his
enormous holdings, but who would be
shown that his equity was fictional the
| minute he tried to get money enough
| to pay current expenses. Friday he
needed the money and tried to get it.
In ten minutes his, millions were re-
solved into thin air.
It is fine thing to be a wizard.
One gets ones name in the papers and
| has the other fellows On the market
begging for a look-in at the good thing.
But it is as we'll to be wizard enough to
be able to transmute cotton into coin
That was where Sully fell short. He
neglected to diagram his masticating
capacity, and that calamity which is
certain to overtake the man who bites
off more than he can chew overlook
| him.
Don't be wizard unless you are sure
you can go all the way through.

CONCERNING GOING TO THE
DEVIL.

Boss Plat has almost always some
interesting message to his party and
the public, and his interview after hav-
ing brought Gov. Oden to his knees
and put the bit in his mouth and a
saddle on his back is no exception. He
said: Republicans in New York state
had good cause for alarm up to noon
today. 1t looked as if the party might
go to the devil, but all that has been
avoided"
The way that 1t looked up to Sunday
noon was that Boss Plat had been de-
posed and Boss Odell put in his place.
The governor has been leading up to
this point for long time. He has laid
his wires shrewdly, strengthened his
lines in every direction, and finally felt
strong enough to announce to the par
| ty, the state and the country that the
boss ship of Platt was ended. For a
| number of days past the public gen.
+ orally has accepted the retirement of
the decrepit old New York leader as
accomplished, and wondered who would
| succeed Senator Depew under Odell's
orders.
Boss Plat did not fall tremendously
| into this order of events, and scarcely
anything in his career is more Won
derful than the ease with which he de-
molished at a stroke the work of odell
| during many painful years. Platt has
not a single quality that should COM
mend him to the respect or obedience
of anybody. He is ignorant, intolerant,
| unscrupulous-abou everything that a
man ought not to be. Yet for more
| than a decade he has pulled New York
state this way and that with crook Of
his little finger. So firmly established is
his power so trucking the other Repub-
| lican leaders in the state, that this tot
| tering old man had but to give one
| more palsied shake of the whip and
they fell instantly into line. Odell has
been Inundated as he never was be-
| fore in all his life, made to take an in
ferior place at direction and to say to
| the party that he likes it.
'tGoing to the devil" in the political
| vocabulary of New York, means escap-
| ing from the boss-ship of Tom Platt.
| His deposition was the probable event
that gave good cause for alarm" in
New York state up to Sunday noon.
| Had the influence of this great and
good man been removed, the Repub-
lican party, with Odell at the head of
| it, would have rushed violently down a
| steep place into the sea. 1t would have
gone straight to the political devil, who
| works the sulphurous realms where
| there is no Plat and no hope that one
will ever come. We are inclined to
think that New York Republicans who
have seen in Odell, If another iron boss
at least a personally responsible and
| honorable one, will regret that they did
not descend to the neither shades in his
company rather than remain in the
upper air chained to the oars of Boss
Platt's galley. There are worse things
than going to the devil in this fashion
must keep If you escape him.

Wheat Doesn't Change to Chess.
For the Reflector.

For the Reflector.
In a recent issue Of your paper
there was a communication from Mr..
E. T. Ellison %purporting to show that
wheat will change to chess. Now |
do not wish to enter into a controversy
with MIR. Ellison or to revive a ques'
ton long since settled by science.
Wheat and chess are entirely distinct
species Of plants and differ greatly,
though both belong to the grass
family as do corn, millet, etc. Chess
is q weed known to botanists as
bromus secalinus. 1t is common In
winter wheat fields and often quite a
pest. The seed OF chess has little
resemblance to wheat and will repro.
duce its kind just as other graes seeds
do. The change Of one species OF
plants to another. such as wheat to
chess, a only take place, il at all, in
q long period OF evolution. The idea
that such a rapid evolution, or degen-
GRAFTON, il you prefer in this case,
could take place in a single season,
could not be 'choked down" the
most ardent supporter Of Darwin's
theory.
Mr.. Ellison gives us an experiment
but doesn't say he ever tried it. He
does not say when what he calls the
"tap root" should be cut; but IL be
means the first downward sprout, or
radicle, it must Be done soon as this
radicle dies in q few days and gives
place to q number OF ibrous roots.
The natural effect OF cutting the radi-
cal would be to kill or retard the
growth OF the g plant. l cant
conceive how cutting the roots OF
wheat could change it into chess any
more than cutting the tap root Of a
pear tree could change it into a crab
apple. There Is as much likelihood Of
the latter as the former, as they are
the more nearly related.
