fSEVEIT AND
 { THE CORPORATIONS

President Milton H. Smith of the LouisYsR & Nashville railroad, in a receE address at New Orleans, declared that the conduct of Presi- dent Roosevelt was "dastardly" in advocating the right of appeal for the government when railroad of fcers slip out from justice on technical grounds of law. Mr. Smith is not the only corporationist who thinks the president was "dastardly'' in the advocacy of measures which look to the com pulsion of fairness and decency on the part of the corporations toward the people. It is this in
 solent idea which so many of the corporations have to the effect that the people have no rights which the corporations must respect tbat has ma le the president take the rartss.3 the people in a;. effort to require T tho corporations the --en 1. rd for right and justice that is eAacted of the individual.

GOVERNMENT BONDS
$50, 900, 900 ISSUE APPROVED
BY THE PRESIDENT.
Interest Bearing Government Notes
Also Approved 800, 600, 900
Is Suggested.

Washington. = Secretary Cortelyou
tonight made the important announce
ment that as a,means of affording relief
to the financial situation, the treasury
would issue $50, ,000, 900 of Panama bonds
and $lO0, ,0O0, 900 certificates of indebted
ness or SO much thereof as may be
necessary. The certificates will run for
one year and will bear 3 per cent inter-
est.
The secretary's action in coming to
the relief of the financial situation
meets with President tRoosevelt's hearty
approval and the plan is the outcome
of the several White House conferences
which have been held within the past
few days when the financial situation
was under consideration.
Secretary Cortelyou says thaf the
Panama bonds will afford most substan.
tial relief, as the law provides that they
may be used as basis for additional
national bank circulation. He also
states that the proceeds from the sale Of
the certificates can be made directly
available at points where the need is
most urgent, and especially for the
movement of, the crops, which he says,
IF properly accelerated win give the
G aeatest relief and result in the most
immediate financial returns"

STOCKHOLDERS INCREASING.
Small Investors Anxious to Secure
Railroad and Other Stocks.

7 e
New York.-A condition OF affairs
has been developing in the purchase of
stocks In Wall street during the last
three montAs which has grown so pro-
nounced in the last few weeks as to
amaze veteran Wal street men. 1t has
been brought home to all who have
watched the Stock Exchange and made
them realize that If the confidence Of
the public is still uncertain as to certain
phases of the "street, /" it is neverthe-
less solid as to the prosperity Of the
country and hope for the future.
This condition of affairs is the steady
buying of railroad and industrial secur-
tiles by the small investors. In the last
six months the number of stockholders
of record of some of the standard rail-
road and industrial corporations has in
creased 30 to IS per. cent, and in great
many cases the unprecedented increase
has developed principally during the
last week and even while the recent
panicky conditions were at their height.
"Some of the figures on the increases
in holdings are startling. The stock.
holders Of record Of the New York Cen
tral have increased since the first of the
year from $500 to over $4,000. On

MAKE WAGE FARMERS
HAPPY WITH. HOMES
Wage Farmers Take Keener Inter-
est in iiome Affairs Than
Other Glasses.
Great Sacrifices Involved in &c.
curing Homes For People of
Working Glass.

Wage earners take a keener interest
in home affairs than either the middle
or wealthy classes.
Their families are larger and their
homes and families represent a greater
effort and sacrifice to sustain them.
Their incomes being smaller and
their necessities greater, the pleasures
and designations which ruin many
homes are prohibited by the rigid
economy necessary to support the
home.
1t seems to be a rule Of nature that
we care most for those things for
| which we work the hardest, and under
this rule we find the rich owning many
homes and caring for none. while the
humble mechanic makes his one mod
est home the hub centre of all his am
billions.
He desires that his wife shall be the
mistress of his home and the mother
of his children.
He does not want her to work in
to go to school.
A home where a little child must
earn part of the family living, and
where the mother worries her life out
! making ends meet. will help to turn a
! well-meaning mechanic into an anar-
chist.
J We not only want our wives at home
F., and our children at school,, and all
well clothed and well fed but we want
, our children to have some ADVANTAGES.
We want, for ourselves and our
loved ones some pleasure in life, some
recreation, some amusements, and we
shall keep on wanting just as long as
other mems families are used better
! than ours.
| We are not satisfied to remain al
| ways "Hewers of wood and drawers of
water" and we are in constant need
OF better wages and still higher wages
to keep our families in line with the
advancing tide Of civilization.
When will it end? Never! "Time
hath not stalled nor custom cloyed"
our appetite for the better things of
| life.
| Once we wanted bicycles. Now we
have them and want automobiles.
| A~oAe VIC WILL walt dlTSUlpS. W1en
| everybody on earth is satisfied and
contented. when every spark Of human
ambition is dead, then, and not until
then, Will we cease to seek TO gain for
our loved ones more and more of the
| comforts and luxuries we see othrs
| enjoy
| Meanwhile we hope our employers
will be pleasant if we occasionally ask
for more pay.
We will be as polite as we know how
In preferring our requests. and as cor
rect as possible in our conduct, but if
We should happen to slop over, do not
attribute 1t to any inherent viciousness
IN our character, but to the fact that
we are in dead earnest in our resolve
that We must have more pay.
All necessities Of life are going uu
by leaps and bounds.
Wages being also necessity of life
must also go up leaps and bounds
We must back up our homes. our
wives and our children.
The next generation must eniov 6et-
ter conditions than ours or civilization
Is failure, and we pledge our life
work to the accomplishment of this
purpose,
We welcome every assistance, and
we are determined to overcome all
opposition.
Now everybody look pleasant
