NEW YORK LETTER.

Yew York, Oct. 30.-Each day be
comes duller and duller in the stock
market pending the result of the cleo
ton for governor of New York. There
were intervals of at least five minutes
at a time during the day when scarcely
a transaction was recorded on the tape.
What trade there was, conferred mostly
in Pennsylvania, Reading, Union Pacific,
Copper, St Paul and Southern Pacific
But at the most, the fluctuations were
so narrow that there was absolutely
no inducement to maks new committees
on either side of the market. Reading
sold off after the opening half point
and later gained it. Pennsylvania also
declined a point from 1898 to 142 and
a fraction. The weakness in Pennsyl-
vania was attributed to selling by
traders who were the buyers yesterday
on the canard circulated that this com
pany had increased their dividend and
put the stock on a per cent basis.
The directors of Pennsylvania do not
meet until the first part of next week.
however, it is the general belief among
the trade that yesterdays rumor will
prove to be correct and that the com
pany will increase their dividend rate.
In the lower priced stocks, Mexican
Central was conspicuously strong and
scored an advance of one and one half
point, selling up to "a and closing
stron. Rumors of one sort and another
were in circulation. Hartman inter
ests were also credited with being the
best buyers.
The market closed steady with com
paratively few changes from last
nights final prices.

is that Japan intends to insist on the
Japanese in America being accorded
all the rights of native Americans, and
1t is just as certain that the people of
the Pacific Slope do not intend that
any such consideration shall be shown
the orientals. The Japanese are now
pouring into California by the thou
sands, and are rapidly becoming more
unpopular and distasteful to the
whites than were ever the Chinese in
their most Objectionable days. From
the coast comes a vigorous demand
for a japanese exclusion act, and it is
readily to be seen that the situation
there is becoming acute. The Jap i'm
migrant is not a desirable acquisition
by any means, as he is shifty, dishon-
est, and turbulent, as well as a menace
to free American labor. He does not
suffer indignity with the patience of
the Chinaman, but carries a chip on
his shoulder and is insistent on his
treaty rights" And these treaty
rights are what is worrying the gov
eminent. Gladly would congress pass
a Japanese exclusion act were ii not
an embarrassing treaty with the Mi
kado, which plainly precludes the pos
sibility Of such action. on the other
hand. the right of the Pacific Slope to
protection from the burden that is be-
ing put upon by the yellow hordes
from the Sunrising kingdom is mani
fest. Just what to do is a question
that may well puzzle the minds of our
statesmen. Perhaps, the Mikado might
solve the problem and save a lot of
trouble by curbing the human tide
that is now flowing from Japan to our
unwelcoming shores. - Fort Wayne

THE COMING TEACHER.


With the changed conditions of life
a change must come in the teacher and
his work. The teacher must prepare
to do the work that is before him. He
must study the problems Of life and
realize that the schools have a very
important part in their solution. He
must realize that the boys and girls
OF today are to earn a living on closer
margin than their ancestors did. School
and life are to be related. The day of
blind teaching of facts is gone-the
teacher of the future must be going
somewhere, and he must know where
he is going and the best way to get
there. Along with his work in teach
ing the subjects which are the tools
OF education must go the ability to
awaken in every pupil the necessity
of doing good work. In rural com
munities, where the masses live, the
soil must be a large factor in school
work. Upon the schools more than any
thing else depends the future of this
country The teacher who realizes the
fact and makes preparation to meet
the new conditions IS the teacher who
will be in demand. Longer terms bet
ter salaries and better preparation
must come together. Much has been
done already. but much more must fol-
low. The minimum length of term is
now six months 1t must be made
seven at once, and in a few years
should be at least eight months in
every district. The country boys and
girls can never have equal educatio
opportunities till this is accomplished
with more practical and better work
eight months would not be too much

that l never raise a glass of water

IF the human culture" aim of the
live stock men, which provides for the
marriage of sound and healthy per-
sons only, is carried out, it would
provide much balm to the soul of the
confirmed old maid. She could then
plead biliousness as the real reason
for her state OF single blessedness, or
tell those who hint she never had a
chance" that she is subject to earache
or cold in the head and is therefore
barred from matrimony. There's no
great loss without some small gain.

HEARD ON THE BouRsE.

New York, Oct. 30.-Scarcity of both |
pig and crude steel combined with car
shortage steadily growing more acute
has developed a critical condition in the
iron business. Already some new
plants are being closed for the want of
crude material and others are operating
on a narrow margin of raw material
and they may be forced to suspend any
time. The furnaces are in great diff

the finished products in the great Pitts
burg district, finishing plants are al
most on the verge of shutting down. The
ques ton of raw material is of para
mount interest in the iron industry, the
past week has made it certain that
Bessemer will sell at Il per ton higher
before the end of the season. Some
sales, in fact, have already been made
at this advance for spot, and to make
it worse the ore buying season of 1907
will soon open. The Frick coke com
pany, formerly a big seller of coke is
now buying $4,000 tons of outside coke
per month to keep up it's contract with
the United States Steel company.
The Cennellsville region cannot turn
out any more coke this year than they
did last on account of the scarcity of
labor and cars. In view of this, is it
to be wondered that London is the
heavy buyer of steel common? The
steel company will show net earnings
of over $3.50, 100000 for the year.
It will. not, I am told advance the
dividend over u of one per cent at its
meeting today but will do it in the be
