WITH THE EDITORS.
Gompers and Crumpacker.

When the grounds Of Mr. Gompers'
criticism OF Congressman Crumpacker
are known, the sympathy of the pub
lie is likely to be with the congressman
rather than with the labor leader
The contention does not apply to local
conditions IN the Tenth district nor
even to affairs within our national bor-
ders, but TO the Panama canal zone
In this II affects national expenditures
and Mr. Crumpacker is on the side of
his country as against individual in
terests. mostly foreign at that
In digging the Panama canal few
Americans are employed, the work be
ing done mostly by coolies. negroes and
foreigners, and those who are ac-
quainted with the lazy habits of these
classes need no apology from Congress-
man Crulnpacker in refusing to vote for
an eight hour day. The American la
borer who does honest work ought TO
stand with the man who tries to Sc
cure honest returns for the nation S
expenditures on the canal. and this is
the sum and substance of Congressman
Crumpacker's offending. Mr.. Gompers
makes a mistake in picking a quar-
rel with him on this point.-Monticel-

RUMoR GOES 20 MILES AN HOUR.
Chicago That Gary LabOrers
Were Killed.

An instance of how fast rumor,
whether true or untrue travels. was
given this morning when the report
was circulated that a number of people
had been killed in an explosion at Gary.
Careful investigation by the Lake
County Times found the story to be
In one hour it had
travelled twenty miles. 1t had its
origin in the blasting that was heard
this morning for the first time in the
neighborhood of Gary. The laborers
there have begun to use that method
for uprooting some of the large trees.
The blasting started at o'clock and at
10 o'clock an inquiry came to this office
from Chicago newspapers asking
whether it was the Portland Cement
works at Gary or the Aetna powder
mills that had gone up in the air. The
story was explained as told above.

NEW YORK LETTER.

New York. Oct. 5.-A strong market
all during the session characterized
by good investment buying of St Paul
Union Pacific. Southern Pacific and
Baltimore & Ohio The talk of valu-
able rights on the St. Paul was the
principal bull card in that issue and
the buying was such as is usually cred
tied TO the Standard Oil interests.
It opened around 1T433. which was
the low point Of the day, and closed at
III, the highest. a rally Of two and
one-half points Union Pacific was al
so strong and the buying was of an
excellent character A great many
traders are becoming convinced that
Onion Pacific paying 10 per cent per
annum is a fair investment at current
quotations.
Another bull argument on the entire
roster was the rumor to the effect that
the bank reserves would be increased
largely tomorrow and that the bank
statement would be a very good one.
This induced renewed buying in all OF
the active stocks and was a particu-
lar incentive In maintaining the
strength in the market up TO the clos
ing hour.
In the industrial group Copper was
the particularly strong feature. 1t
opened at 1917 and on buying by brok-
ers. who usually operate for insiders
advanced to 1857 The advance had
basic foundation as the metal mar
ket advanced again today both here
and In London The price of Amalga
mated Copper is receiving for it's ccp-
per at present is record breaker and
heir earnings are simply enormous
This company could increase their divi-
dend disbursement to 10 per cent with
out affecting their surplus materially
The market closed strong and at the
top prices for almost everything on the
! list.

The Call of Nature.

Why is it that old folks in the city
and those on beds of sickness yearn for
the fields and flowers. fresh air and
sunshine?
II is instinct-the call of Mother Ma
laugh but always understood.
Why is at that after using to no avail
chemical compounds and freak discov-
cries for our infrmities, we turn for re-
lief to the great laboratory Of Nature
where curative gifts are wrought in
vegetation by the sunshine process?
1t is instinct
AS from every temptation there is q
way of escape. so do we instinctively
believe that for every i'll there is a cure.
1t is not the desire of the Quaker
Herb. Company to convey the impression
that their herb remedies cure all dis
eases, but they do claim that their
Quaker Herb Extract contains the best
of known curative principles Of plant
life.

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, Oct. 5.-WHEAT-This mar
ket was of a reactionary tendency all
day. The opening prices were about
the highest. One large line of long
wheat was dumped on the market and
this started selling by scattered hold
ers. The news was of a nature to in
duce selling. Northwestern receipts
are slightly in excess of last year; cash
demand not so good as during the early
part of the week Foreign markets a
trifle lower than yesterday. Wheat in
the northwest favorable TO crop move
ment. The market closed weak with
the tone 10 incline to lower prices to
morrow.
CORN-A trihe lower and easier
Old corn in the cash market offered one
half cent lower. Exporters are not
making much effort TO buy the cash
article. Contract corn here is increas
ing but large quantity of it is being
shipped east preparatory to sales and
exporters The market closed dull.
0ATS-Stronger early in the session
but later weakened in sympathy with
the weakness in other pits. The sell
ing pressure on the market was more
pronounced than yesterday but it was
well absorbed by commission houses
Sales to seaboard were $4,000 bushels.

THE WHITE PLAGUE.


Noting that California is concerned
least she be overtnn with cousumptiyes,
the Brooklyn Eagle says:
The question OF tuberculosis must
eventually be dealt with by the whole
people, and not imposed upon the peo-
pie of a district. Because the pure air
of Colorado and the soft air of Cal
ifornia and the warm air OF Florida
have benefited the victims. we are not
to suppose that the patients must be
sent 20 one or the other Of these states.
Every part of the country that has a
mountain and woods, especially pine
woods has the site for a sanatorium,
And it is now more clearly recognized
than ever before that one of the first
duties OF the States is TO safeguard the
lives Of its citizens, not merely from
violence BY its militia and police but
from far commoner disease by means
of an alert and adequate corps Of med
ical officers. The actual destruction
of tuberculosis is possible. Concert OF
action among the nations could ELI
inmate this disease and relegate il to
history, with the plaques that used to
ravage the cities. AS this will not be
until q more enlightened and fraternal
epoch. the best that can BE done in the
meantime is 10 establish sanataria. in
creasing the paltry dozen or SO now in
existence To at least hundred. and
send TO these retreats tuberculosis pa
items who can not be properly treated
in their own homes and by their own
physicians.

THE CROWDED TRIP HOMIE.

air do the youngsters is more than
counterbelanced by the awful crowded
trip home?
Why must the outings of the poor. by
the way, always take place under the
most crowded and uncomfortable con-
ditions? Are there not fields and
woods without glare and side shows
to which the tired mother may take
her little ones for a picnic? Yes. In
deed, there are plenty of them within
five cent fare distance OF nearly every
city.
And yet the one idea Of pleasure of
the poor woman is to join excursions
and to drag herself and her family into
dusty. noisy surroundings. Is she more
foolish. though. than her rich sister
who shuts herself up in the house TO
play bridge although she hates IT'D Just

Some women have peculiar notions

on FEDERAL SUPERVISION.

In his speech at the dedication Of the
Pennsylvania state house yesterday the
president dwelt upon two important
points namely the education Of the in
dividual to decent and honorable citi-
zenship and federal supervision over
great corporations. In other words,
ne said there should be a complete
elimination of any mo mans land" be-
tween the state and national govern
ments.
He pointed out the fact that If we,
as a nation fail to increase the power
of the federal government, I'VE show
our Impotence and leave ourselves at
the mercy Of those ingenious legal ad-
visers of the holoers of vast corporate
wealth. who. IN the performance Of
what they regard as their duty. and to
serve the ends of their clients, invoke
the law at one time for the confound-
ing of their rivals, and at another time
strive for the notification of the law.
in order that they themselves may be
left free to work their unbridled win
on the same rivals. or on those who
labor for them, or on the general pub
lie"
There can be no doubt that the con-
hicting laws between state and nation
are responsible for much of the arbi-
trariness of corporate wealth 1t is a
pretty poor kind of a lawyer who can
not read a double Interpretation into
most of the laws of the land at best,
ard that being the case, they are not
likely to overlook any palpable open
ing of which they may take advantage
to defeat the ends of justice in the
interests Of their clients. Since there
are such openings and since the cor
porations have the means at their COM
mand 10 corner the legal brains of the
entire country and keep them corner
ed, the fewer loop-holes the better.

Mr. HawIey told some Of his Chicago
friends that Colorado Southern was
sold TO Rock Island; that he, in fact.
had sold his stock at something like
SO. Dan Reid and Jim Moore are at
tending a meeting in New York TO
have the Rock Island take over the
Alton and the Colorado Southern and
TO give the voting power on Rock Is
land to the common stock. this will
really be almost a reorganization and
viii put the Rock Island back TO 40
and put il in a good trading position.
They expect TO float a lot of new bonds
on the consolidation. Jim Moore is go
ing 10 Paris TO handle the deal and ii
is expected that he will. have no trouble
in disposing of the securities. 1t is
estimated that France can loan $3.50,

its reserves and Americans are in great
favor there now.
