that danger facing us as long as
the system of dealing in stocks on
margin is permitted. The actual
buying and selling of stocks never
cause trouble any more than buy
ing and selling merchandise does.
It is the dealing in futures, the
selling of stock that the seller does
not own and the purchaser does not
intend to get, that causes the
trouble. When a man buys stock
that pays a fair interest on the in
vestment it makes no material differ
ence to him whether the specula-
tive price goes up or down a few
points. But when he buys futures
in fact bets what the price of the
stock will be at a certain future
date the rise or fall may mean
wealth or ruin; and when it means
wealth for one party to the trans
action it means ruin to the other.
1t is not legitimate business, for
in that both parties are benefited
by a transaction. Unless some way
is found to check this gambling we
shall always be threatened by the
danger Of Wall Street panic, and
the financial body may not always,
as now, be healthy enough to over
come the disease germs emanating
from that pool.
The fnanciers are discussing the
question of asset or emergency cur
rency with renewed vigor on ac-
count of present conditions. A lit
tie reflection ought to convince any,
one that this would only aggravate
the condition. The Wall Street
game has no other limit than the
amount of money that can be bor-
rowed. Increasing the amount of
actual or money will only
tend to increase speculation.
Knowing that when the actual
money is exhausted they can make
money Of their own and loan it at
exorbitant rates, the banks con-
trolled by the system would encour-
age speculation. No, furnishing
more funds will not help the coun-
try from this danger. A large
money volume raises the general
trend of prices and helps legitimate
bu ,iness, provided it can be OBJ
tanned at a fair rate Of interest
but emergency currency, the issue
of which is so regulated that il
must command rates too high for
legitimate business, would only ag.
gravate speculation. The cause OF
the disease must be rooted out il
we shall have security. While We
are legislating against "bucket
shops we ought to take measures
against the biggest bucket shop ir
the world Wall Street. If that
can't be stopped, if the System is
stronger than the government, ther
we may as we'll make up our minds
that the prosperity Of the country
does not depend upon it's natural
resources and the industry Of its
people out upon the sweet will OF
the Wall Street financiers, and we
shall have these periodical financial
depressions and panics whenever
the System pleases. 1t is true that
the heads of the system helped
check the panic this time, probably
because it had gone as far as suited
their purposes, but it is equally
true that but for the Wall Street
gambling there would have beer
no panic to check. It is time tc
find out whether or not the pros
perity of the country shall continue
to rest on such an insecure anc
shifting foundation.

PROHIBITION BULLETIN.

Ex-senator Carmack of Tennessee
has announced his candidacy for the
democratic gubernatorial nomina-
tion on straight prohibition plat
form. In discussing the prohibi-
tion issue recently Mr.. Carmack is
reported to have said: Il consider
this talk about prohibition driving
labor away as tomfoolery. 1t will
do nothing of the kind. l attribute
the present prohibition wave that
is sweeping the South to the perni-
cious activity of the saloons in po-
litics. In every state in the South
the saloon has demonstrated that
it will rule the people if left alone,
and the general desire to abolish
the saloon resulted. We have pro-
hibition in all but four t WINS in
Tennessee, and l think it but a
question of time when the entire
state will abolish the saloon"

BAXTER SPRINGS OP-
PORTUNITY.

The committee appointed by
the Baxter Mining Exchange last
spring, to represent Baxter
Springs mining interests at the
meeting of the entire southwest
ern district representatives, for
the purpose of entertaining the
American Mining Congress, to be
held in Joplin Nov. II to IL, has
so well conducted its campaign
as to be able to report that it has
secured the consent of the Com
mittee of Fifty, which has the
whole matter in charge, to de-
vote one day Of the week to BaX-
ter Springs and its mining camp.
In order TO get this concession it
took hard and persistent work on
the part of the committee, as
many of the older camps were
equally alive to the great advan-
tage to be gained by having such
men inspect their camps. The
best posted men in the mining
business the world over will be
in attendance at this congress:
men whose names stand at this
profession, and who are known
in all parts of the world as the
leading men in developing the
hidden treasures beneath the
earth's crust; men who have de-
voted their lives and fortunes in
research and practical mining
such are the men we are to en-
tertain for one day and show
them what we have in this camp.
Much will depend on the inn
preston We make on them and
the ideas they will carry away
with them. If the impressions
are good we will have done more
in that one day than has been
done in the past three years. If
on the other hand We make a
poor impression on them we have
lost a golden opportunity which
may never return.
Each and everyone who is in-
terested in Baxter Springs or the
camp should take lively inter-
est in doing what he or she can
to make this a Red Letter Day
for Baxter Springs. There will
oe some expense, and this should
be cheerfully forthcoming with
out personal solicitation. All
should report to some member oil
the committee what they will or
can do, without further work on
the committees part. The COM
mittee is as follows: +. I. Nc

is really no good reason for pay
