Todau's Problem.

One Of the anomalies of our age is
manifest in the unusual trials and
troubles Of our very rich men. Since
the growth Of the great trusts they
nave not been respected and admired
as in former years. Public sentiment
clamors at Dives door. He is har-
assed by law suits, sState uprisings,
new laws and general political dis
content. And when he reaches out his
hand for his paper he finds himself,
as likely as not, included in a general
indictment pointing to a trip to the
penitentiary for a year or two.
In spite Of the saying that the world
has-so far as human nature Is con
eerned-always been the same, GER
tain large problems have been fought
out to partial solution in different
periods OF history; problems, for in
stance, as to whether physical might
or moral right shall rule; whether
we shall worship many gods or one;
whether the state, the clan, or the in
diVidual shall enjoy certain rights;
whether the divine right OF kings, or
the divine right of the people shall
prevail. Apparently this age is con-
cerned with financial problems. 1t
may be that it is to end, once and for
all, that most acute one-how large a
control OF this worlds necessities
one man may enjoy.

THE PlsToL-cA7RYlNG HABIT.

A meeting called in Hampstead,
Texas, few nights ago, to adopt
measures to enforce the local option
law and preserve the peace, was
attended by a large number of
well meaning citizens for a lauda-
BILE purpose, but the fatal habit of
carrying arms resulted in a fright
full tragedy, In which several prom
inent citizens were shot dead in
what became a general melee of
pistol firing. Where it is the Gus
tom of men to go secretly armed in
this fashion they are at the mercy
of any hOtspur who may be in the
aSsemblage. If the men who as
sembled had not been armed, these
murders could not have been COM
mitted, and the community would
have been spared the distress and
disgrace of the random bloodshed
A wave of insanity swept over the
audience, and, as many had pistols,
the battle began simply for that
reason. The families of the men
killed are plunged in mourning
simply because concealed weapons
were carried.

don't want to go. There are many
reasons why they don't want to,
but that is the sum of them all.u

COLLAPSE OF THE WHEAT PLOT

Retribution has hit John W.
Gates, just as it hit B. f. Hutch

Letter and many other grain gam
blers in the past. The break in
the wheat corner in the present
case the past week is one OF the
most sensational which the country
has ever seen. 1t is figured that
Gates and his associates have lost
from 100000 to s3,000,0 900 by
their conspiracy.
The country will say, May it
ever be so with gamblers in food.
The men who were working
against the Gates clique would
probably have been on the Gates
side if they had thought there was
more money there than III their
own deal, but they CHANGED to be
working in the public interest IN
this instance, and thus deserve a
certain amount of credit.
Letter a few years ago was said
| to have lost IS, 900, 000in his wheat
gamble. or three or four times as
much as Gates has dropped along
to the present date. Keene several
| times lost from 81, 100000 to -,

who invested their money on tn
gamblers side. Millions of con
sumers of flour, on the other hand
have been injured by the artificial
prices which the gamblers hav
imposed for their own interest.
