Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1907-02-27

Connecticut is trying to make such
bank robbery as that in New Britain
impossible. or. at least. more difficult.
One proposition is 10 compel all secu-
rites capable of registration TO be reg
istered in the name of the bank. An
other is that all securities which can
not be registered shall be kept in n
special vault of a deposit company
provided with two independent locks
the key to one of which shall be kept
by the bank commissioner who shall
send his agent whenever necessary to
open the vault. OF course this is cum
bersOme, and the effort is being made
10 improve on the scheme. Bank Of
ficers have very wide opportunities for
stealing 1t is exceedingly seldom
that one steals. But all precautions
are taken against the few persons in
the community who are criminaly in
clinpd

Uncle sam as Debt Collector.

The British corporation of foreign
bondholders have just made their
thirty-third report on the collection OF
debts from defaulting republics of
Latin-America and state they are re-
lying on the United States with it's
big stick to accomplish what their
own government has failed to do. II
appears that Costa Rica. Guatemala
and Honduras are all in default and
that mo serious attempt is being made
TO pay penny" but the bondholde :
are relying upon the statement Of
President Roosevelt that il is the duty
of the United States TO see that these
republics acted with decency in IN
dustrial and political matters and paid
their obligations The report declares,
however. that it is somewhat disap-
pointing that nothing. so far as the
bondhClders are aware. has yet been
done by President Roosevelt in the di-
rectiOn indicated.
1t might be well for these bondholG.
ers TO know that there has been Il
brake applied to the application of the
big stick doctrine" and that congress
has so far refused to permit the pres.
ident TO go into the collecting business
even in the modified plan proposed TO.

members of the senate are now said t.

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1907-02-27

The increase in the true value of
the southern wealth, it appears. has
been $3.50 900 900 for the past >
months. CT about 100000 for every
day of the year, including Sundays and
holidays. What is England's boasted
$1,000. 900 a week compared TO this.
And the natural resources of the south
are 50 great that it seems certain that
these figures will seem small best lie
those of future years. With this i'm
mense increase of daily wealth going
on. one visiting the south now-eI-
cept Il few centers like Norfolk, New
port News. Birmingham or Atlanta
receives the impression of a country
awaiting development. Under the
blighting system of slavery the south
could never have reached her present
industrial condition or have had such
a future before her as she has today.
But those changed conditions. which
have been more than forty years wolK-
ing themselves out seem 10 assure her
now of as great future as her sOas
are claiming foc her

A FIRST NIGHT AUDIENCE.
The Crowd That Makes Up New
York. Famous "Deathwatch."

"
1t would he difficult in line to say
just what the character of the first
night audience in New York city is
There are the critics of course. Il dozen
or so of rather Subdued and timorous
looking little men who wander lone
somely about. not seeming to have the
courage to speak to anybody outside
of their own set and who are general
~ followed by the vengerul glances OF
some hurt actor
Aside from the assortment of young
millionaireS who like the theatrical at
mOsphere. the main constituency of the
first night audience is the profession"
and the allied arts. the criminal law
yerS, managers, hackers of shows. etc.
In the early part of the season there
