Rapid Accumulation Of
Milliomaires i'm the World

Cent Per Cent recently discussing the rapid increase
in multimilionaires gives a few statistics Of interest.
1t says:
There are now 1OJ0S7 known millionaires (nearly
one-half of whom-5027-are in America) their fortunes
totaling $4,000, 600, 900. Every state and territory is
represented in the list, and one millionaire, an Indian,
Melvin Dempsey, is in Alaska. Nearly all of the re-
naming 5000 millionaires are in Europe, though ASIA
has 900 and South America and South Africa have their
share.
In 1876 Moses Y. Beach printed a list of New York
citys rich. He gave the names Of 1924 possessing
100000 each, and Of % men with 100000 each. Now
only millionaires are counted among the rich and there
are 1900 of them in New York city alone.
Among the milionaires Of London, Sir Thomas LIP
toms $25,OOO,OOO is small fry" when compared with
estates such as that of the infant earl of Grosyenor,
valued conseryatiyely at $SO,OOO,OOO or that Of the Duke
of Norfolk, whose income is $500 a day.
Cent Per Cent says its purpose is not to draw any
morals, yet one is forced at least to think, and pro-
foundly, when he learns that there are many very
wealthy men, including forty-nine millionaires, in Russia,
entire nation, according to the Til Shimpo, Tokios
leading financial journal, holds but AL fortunes of as
much as S250,O00 each, and these are Japan's richest,
Our Senator Clark or Nj. Flagler could either buy out
the entire AL. And yet Japan has no paupers. II is a
land Of people well drilled, Of farms wen titled, or
pockets well filed, On the other hand, Russla's rich

anything mere money has made possible in other lands.

ing from the result Of Russia's contest with the Japan

no money, hut that they seem to have nothing else,

RAILWAY o.

whether the United States senate shall be able to
defeat the presidents plan for national control Of rail
ways, one thing is certain-that body cannot prevent
state control, which is daily growing in almost every
part of the country.
Governor Warner of Michigan, is trying to persuade
the railroads in that state to return to the use of mile
age books, which will be honored on trains by conductors.
The state officials have been stirred to action by the
travelling statesmen, who complain that they are delayed
and annoyed by having to exchange mileage strips tor
tickets at all stations from which they depart. All the
Michigan railroads now use the interchangeable mileage
book of the Central Passenger association and do not
propose to give it up unless they are compelled to do so.
The railway commission of Texas recently notified
the international & Great Northern road that unless its
passenger trains run according to its published sched-
ules the company will be heavily fined. Similar notice
has just been given to the Missouri, Kansas & Texas,
because of many complaints made by its patrons to the
commission. A general warning has been issued by the
commission to all Texas roads that they must adopt and
publish schedules of passenger trains upon which the
public can rely.
President Spencer of the Southern railway and President
Hudson of the Central of Georgia, to appear before it
and answer questions to show the ownership of the latter
road. 1t is held by the minority stockholders Of the
Augusta Southern that the Southern railway owns the
stock Of the Georgia Central, which is a competitor of the
Augusta line. Under the laws Of Georgia, a railway
company cannot hold stock of two companies which are
competitors. The Southern railway operates and con-
trolls the Augusta Southern line and II it is proven that 1t
also owns or controls the Georgia Central, it must dis
pose of it's holdings in one of the smaller roads.
The Louisiana railroad commission has ordered
that train schedules be SO arranged as to enable passen-
gers to travel without unnecessary delay between points
on linese which cross each other. 1t is charged that it
is the policy of the roads, in order to secure better re-
suits individually, to make schedules so that their pas
senger trains will not meet or make close connections
at crossings or junction points. The railroads deny
that such is their policy.
With a view to regulating freight and passenger
rates in Kentucky, the state commission has addressed
to the auditors of each road operating in the state a
series of forty-two questions regarding valuation, gross
earnings and income, operating expenses and traffic and
mileage statistics. And thus the list might be extended
at great length.

How Shall / SwcceedY
Is Asked by Young Mem
From the Los Angeles Examiner,

There was never a day in America when so many
young men-and young women, too-were asking the
question, What shall | do to be successful?' They
are asking it by word of mouth, and seeking the reply
in the lives and words of famous men, and searching
books for the answer.
There was a day when Horace Greeley said to the
seeker for a recipe for success, Young man, go west
That was years ago. Since then people, becoming
wiser, have learned that success is not a matter of geog-
raphy. 1t seems to be the consensus of thought of all
successful men that three things are necessary to real
success. You must be honest. You must work hard.
You must have ick-to-it-ivenes
At the head of one of the biggest individual enter
prises in the world, and at the same time at the head
name is world famous-William /. Douglas, governor
of Massachusetts,. He employs thousands of men and
women, but that does not prevent him from being a
strong friend of union labor. In fact 1t helps him to be
the workingman's friend, because he is wise enough to
realize that much of his business prosperity has come
from his employees cooperation. He possesses great
wealth, and all his business relations are of that class
commonly called conservative" but that doesn't prevent
him from proving himself the truest kind of a conserva-
tive by speaking against all unjust conditions which now
exist in America, and for their alternatives. such as
public ownership of public utilities and relief from trust
domination.
Whatever each mans definition of success may
be, Governor Douglas has probably achieved Tin
growth of business, in elevation in politics, in happiness
in domestic life, in respect from vast numbers of people.
When such a man tells what he believes has been re-
%sponsible for success his word is worthy of much at
tention. In an interview on the secrets of success,
Governor Douglas said: THE true Ideals of success are
self development and service, and one may well ask
himself at the close of each day If his life is richer in
these" And as recipes for success, in its broadcast
sense, the governor said that honesty was fundamental,
hard work is an essential, and then, using the phraseol-
ogy of the trade in which he has made his business sue
cess, he said: IF you would be successful you must
stick to your last"
This advice isn't new, but it will never be old. A
preacher, writing twenty-three hundred years ago, said
it thus: Whatsoever thy hand fndeth to do, do it with
thy might"

The Oklahoma board of agriculture estimates the
corn yield this year at thirty Eight and one-quarter mil
lion bushels, an increase of sixteen million bushels over
that of last season. The crop is valued at eleven and
one-half million dollars, while the cotton yield is sup
posed to be worth only a million less. What with the
wheat, oats, poultry, eggs and dairy products. in addi-
ton to this twenty-one millions, Oklahoma ought to be
able to worry through the winter. Shawnee is one OF
the wonder children of the southwest. 1t was plated
in 1899 and had a population in its overnight birth OF
300. 1t grew TO 1852 in 1900 and in 1908 had reached
the $4,000 mark. A census taken two months ago re-
cords a population of 20,160. 1t is the center of trade
both retail and shipping, for a population of 10000, and
has all the attributes of a modern city. Electric lights,
electric cars, gas, paved streets, high grade business
blocks, elegant residences, great railroad shops and
numerous manufacturing industries have transformed a
naked prairie in ten years to a city which aspires to
10000 POPULATION in 1910. And yet Oklahoma cannot
get statehood except by adopting Indian Territory at
great sacrifice. What chance, then, has either New
Mexico or Arizona for separate statehood?

WOMAN ALMOST KILLED
BY FALL DOWNSTAIRS
MRS. CAROLINE TELLER SUFFERS
FRACTURED SKULL, BUT DOC
TORS SAY SHE WILL RECOVER.

As a result Of a fall down stairs at
her home on West Copper avenue
Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Caroline
Teller. a widow, sustained a severe
fracture Of the skull, which injuries
were at first thought to be fatal, but
which later were ascertained to be not
so serious.
Mrs. Teher was descending the
stairs when she accidentally tripped
on her skirt and was precipitated to
the bottom of the flight, a distance of
about twelve feet. DR.. r. L. Hust
was Immediately summoned, and after
making an examination Of the wom-
ans injuries. ordered her removed to
St. Joseph's hospital. An examlna-
ton at the hospital revealed the fact
that her skull was cracked, caused by
her head striking the bottom step of
the stairs.
Mrs. Teller was given treatment
yesterday and had so far recovered
last night as to be able to return TO
her home. DR.. Hust reports that she
will recover unless complications
arise.

President Harper. of Chicago university, lies on his
death bed. But his splendid nerve has never failed
him. His body is kept numbed, that the pain may not
distract his unfailing. irrepressible brain. He is a fine
type Of the sef-forgetting. preoccupied enthusiast-the
sort of stuff that makes great Americans. It is good
to see a man living so utterly outside Of himself that
even the impending scythe of the grim reaper has no
power to d%iscoqcert him from the ruling passion, the
betterment of humanity.

FACTS IN THE CASE

The Albuquerque Aftermath, in its Sunday second
cutting of the news which The Citizen gave the COM
munity fresh Saturday evening-the day of its occur
ence-says that The Citizen has at last found out
about the Arizona joint statehood league and comes
bravely up on Saturday night with a word for word spe-
cal to the Journal of several days before-without
credit"
OF course, The Citizen cannot say that the Journal
did not receive a special about the Arizona joint state
hood league, though we do not believe that it did; for
with all its folly we do not believe the Journal would
pay for a special which it could have gotten, word for
word, from the Arizona papers, or even from a Denver
paper, where it also appeared, word for word.
The fact is that the Journal, In all probability, got
the special at the same time and from the same place
where The Citizen got it; and the difference between
the two papers was this: The Citizen laid the clipping
aside for it's Territorial column, where matters Of such
kind are sometimes credited but generally not; while
the Journal took its clipping, also without credit, rushed
it into print and fraudulently labeled ii a special to the
Journal.
The Citizen is the more inclined to believe this be-
cause it has several times caught the Journal in this
fragrant usage, not a few of which instances it has eX-
posed to the public. This much The Citizen will say,
that its specials whether communications or tee-
grams, are just exactly what they claim to be, and are
never like the Journals-stolen stock, rebranded.

What came near being a serious accident happened

In the sunken road where the rocks are piled high on

to check the frightened animals, but the buggy wheels

throwing the occupants out, the young man taking the
girl with him so carefully that there was but one inn
preston IL the moist ground where they struck. The
team was readily caught by a man on horseback who hap
pened to be passing and it was found that no serious
damage had been sustained except by the buggy which
looked something like a total wreck, though it has since
been reported that the young mans arm has become de
tached-White Oaks Outlook.
