street stocks up and down at will
aud use them in much the same
way that a faro dealer uses a
brace" box to rob those who go
against his game.
Such a discovery would mean
the complete severance of the
public from speculation on such
market. While it would permit
the System" to ruin Lawson
financially it would make of him
a martyr in the public esteem and
cost the System" far more than
in would make in a money way
in wreaking its vengeance upon
him. 1t would ring the curtain
down on its own career along
with his financial one, and set in
motion a wave of popular wrath
that would end in disaster for all
deemed to have part in it.
The present play may have
been staged for comedy, but it
may end in tragedy, for what
ever the business world may say
or think about Lawson, some peo-
pie believe that he is telling the
truth, that he means well and the
revelations that he has made
have gone deep into their minds
and prepared them for serious
protest.

cure control of both the old party
conventions and defeat the nomi-
nation of any man for President
who could not be made the tool
of their selfish interests.
Through the turmoil and con-
fusion they may consider it likely
that public attention will be dis
tracted from this giant reform,
public ownership of the great
monopolies.
1t is nevertheless, a welcome
thing that the press of both the
great parties begin to realize and
express their fear of the we'll
meaning of the capitalist class.
1t argues that in the near future
there will be steps taken to dis
courage the centralizing of so
much wealth in a few hands. Let
the great body and mass of the
people once thoroughly under
stand that the greatest enemy of
progress is the man of vast wealth
who seeks unfair advantage, and
it may be depended upon that
they will find way to clip the
claws of this financial tiger.
If panic is brought about by
the moneyed class in order to dis
credit the President it may not
be so satisfactory to the in
fluences that bring it about. The
people are rapidly becoming
awakened to the danger that
surrounds them A little affair
like a panic just now will make
socialists faster than Grover
Clcveland's bond issue made pop
ulis,s. If the money class would
remember the old proverb
Whom the gods would destroy
they first made mad" they would
hesitate about bringing on dis
trustful conditions at time when
reform ideas are so very active.

ditions. In the contest between
greed and privilege on the one
hand, and popular rights on the
other, it will follow the demands
of the people, because it belongs
to the people. 1t must stand with
them rather than with those who
contend tor the hctions of Privi-
lege and of vested rights. 1t will
take its place in the ranks of the
proletariat and struggle with and
for the proletariat rather than
with or for those who have
adopted the modern scheme of
capitalizing the needs of the null
titude and making the multitude
pay dividends on the capitaliza-
ton.
Everything tends toward this
new division or alignment. 1t is
emphasized by the demand of
President Roosevelt for regulation
and control of the railroads. 1t
is furthered by efforts everywhere
exerted, and witnessed in Port
land as elsewhere today, to cap
italize public functions, and to
turn them to private profit for
of first families" in lux
ury and idleness. 1t is not an
issue which this newspaper has
sought, Gladly, rather, it would
have avoided or averted it. But
it is upon us today, and it chal-
lenges attention, and tomorrow
and next year its demands will be
more imperative still The as
growth of 1t IS due to
the inordinate greed of a Plutoc-
racy which never will admit that
it has had enough.

BOOKED FOR SOCIALISM.

The following is taken from the
Portland Oregonian, the leading
Republican paper of the Pacific
coast:
We suppose our country is
booked" for Socialism. Greed
of spectators is bringing it on.
Exploitation of public utilities by
our first families hurries it for
ward.
Operators everywhere are seiz-
ing their opportunity to capital
ize" the wants of the public in
ways to create great properties
and to obtain great dividends.
The people believe that the only
check to these schemes of plu-
tocracy lies in a Socialist move
ment, under which the productive
forces may be transformed into
socialized effort.
The Oregonian has not been
willing to see this change. But
in the contest that is coming
forced by the greed of capitalism
and of exploitation-it finds itself
compelled to yield to new con

INDICATIONS OF TROUBLE.

The sound of cracking banks is
beginning TO be heard in the land
and the other day call money
went to 100 per cent, in Wall
Street On another page we
PRINT an editorial from the Den
yer Republican expressing their
opinion of the cause of the high
interest rate.
While theirs is a fearful indict-
ment of present financial opera
tions it does not seem to us that
it goes to the root of the matter
For very considerable time the
people have believed that these
panics are brought about mali
ciously by the banks and the other
great capitalists for the purpose
of coercing the government in
some instance, and for the pur-
pose of squeezing out small prop.
erty holders at other times. Per-
haps the object of the capitals
tic class is the destruction of Tom
Lawson, as the Republican claims
but we lean to the opinion that
they are after bigger game.
For the first time in thirty
years the President of the United
States is doing things very much
disapproved of by this same
money oligarchy.
That they are much aggricved
thereby is known by every one.
They are perfectly capable of
bringing on a panic if it would re-
suit in thoroughly discrediting
President Roosevelt.
They also have another motive.
For several years the money
kings have been dissatisfied with
the money supply. They caused
the destruction OF silver and
thought they had permanently
removed the possibility of a
money supply greater than they
could control. 1t did seem as if
single gold standard would be
all sufficient to place the none
tary control of the country in
their hands for all time. But the
vast increase in the production of
gold has defeated that scheme.
The rapid advance of sentiment
in favor of municipal and govern
ment ownership of great utilities
has scared the daylights out of
the class that desire to exploit
the people instead of work.
To us it appears as if there was
deliberate, carefully arranged
plan for the production of a
panic. In the crash of banks and
business houses, in the horrid din
of wreck and ruin they may
reasonably expect that public at
tention will be drawn away from
the only real avenue of escape.
They might hope with reason

WE will see the beet sugar in
dustry protected and fostered by
the government as we have pro-
tected and fostered other indus
tries.-Booster. .
TIE above was printed by our
esteemed Booster friends as a
sort of New Year prophecy. We
reprint it SO that our friends may
take notice how very unreliable
are Booster statements. At the
time the article was being set in
the Booster office Congressman
Brooks was in print saying that
he saw no way to prevent the re-
duction of the tariff on Philippine
sugar as suggested by the Presi-
dent. A reduced tariff on sugar
means the absolute destruction of
the beet sugar business in Colo
RADIO. We do not pretend to be
friendly to tariff on anything.
We want to see the President s
idea obtain because it will give
the people cheaper sugar, and the
percentage of sugar users is far
greater than the percentage of
sugar producers. We always try
to be democratic and favor the
greatest good to the greatest
number.

THE HIGH INTEREST RATE.

Something OF the emptiness of
the pretense of heavy speculation
on Wall street can be CLEANED
from the almost unprecedent rate
that call money has reached in
New York. Interest on short or
call loans is being exacted at the
rate of 100 per cent year in con
trast with the three or four per
cent earned by real estate and
bond loans. 1t is rather the fact
that the money loaned is TO be
used in speculation that usually
controls the rate on such money.
No such movement of speculation
as the Wall street managers have
been trying to make it appear to
be on could long endure in the
face of such an interest rate. There
must be another reason for it, and
there is but one other apparently
possible.
For days the fact that Thomas
Lawson has been caught very
much on the wrong side of the
market has been public property.
Lawson has taken SO big a part
in speculation that anything he
does is pretty sure to become
matter for public comment. There
is no doubling the fact that the
system" of which he has been
complaining has been after his
scalp. 1t has been preparing to
get even with him for all the
abuse he has heaped upon its
leaders and for the plots he has
himself laid to squeeze them in
the market. Now, with the power
to make quotations almost at will,
with a control of the large hnan-
cial sums of the country, Of the
principal banks, through holding
a corner on money while sending
up prices of stocks that Lawson
has sold short and preventing
him from protecting his holdings,
it would be quite possible tor the
System" to put almost any kind
of desired finish to the financial
career of the Boston tale-bearer.
This may or may not be the
solution of the present illogical
situation. If developments prove
that it is a right one, it will be
the most convincing proof pos
sible OF all that Lawson has
claimed. 1t will show conclu-
sively that the money OF the
country is in the control OF a few
men who move the prices OF Wall

most disgusting piece of toady-

in the brain of man able to de-
ceive the people into the idea
that he ought to be allowed to

a stop to this piece of folly he is

CORPORATION PROFITS.


The enormous earnings of the
utility corporations of Denver
during the year and their efforts
to perpetuate their franchises are
discussed in the following article,
which appeared in the Wall Street
Journal of New York, one of the
most reliable financial papers in
the country:
The four public utility corpo-
rations of Denver made more
money during 1905 than ever be-
fore. Estimates of the earnings
follow:
Denver Tramway company. y........... s2i5O,OOO
Denver Gas & Electric company 100000
Colorado Telephone company -.......... 1,s50,OOO
Denver Union Weter company .......-. 100000
All but the Denver Gas & Elec-
trio company are expected to pay
the usual dividends. Because of
improvements and extensions the
light company will probably not
pay dividends for some time.
The question of franchise is
now becoming an important one
with the public utility corpora
tions of Denver. Within a few
years all their franchises will ex-
pire and to do business they
must renew them. Some diff
Guilty is expected. Municipal
ownership is being urged by
prominent politicians anxious to
gain power by taking the utilities
from individual corporations.
While Denver has not taken very
kindly to the idea, yet its citizens
are awakening to realization of
the great value of franchises an
will demand large sums of money
for future franchises.
The franchises of the Denver
Gas and Electric company will
begin to expire in two years; the
same thing is true of the Denver
Tramway franchises. The fran
chises of the Denver Union Water
company will expire in 1910 and
that of the Colorado Telephone
company about 1913.
The utility corporations, headed
by the Denver Tramway COM
pany, are gaining control of the
county offices and of the judi
ciary. This is being done to en-
able them to more readily secure
extensions of their franchises.
The Denver Tramway company
maintains that It's franchises are
perpetual. This is denied. To
make its point stick, the Tram
way company will have to control
the courts of the state, including
the supreme court OF Colorado.
1t has been working toward that
end for several years.
Although the franchises of the
Denver Gas & Electric company
will begin to expire in short time
it has put more stock on the mar
ket. From this act it is evident
that the company feels sure of
having its franchises extended at
will.
