The two men chosen for this debate will
be recognized instantly as signally fitted
for the task Each, by his own work.
has won recognition as an able, fearless.
and sincere advocate OF the advanced
thought Of the two great parties. Each

LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Business on the Washington Stock tx
change was in sharp contrast with that
of Saturday. 1t was in fair volume and
animated. Many bids were made for
stocks that could not be filled. and with
one or two exceptions prices were better
than at the close Of the week. Interest
centered about railway bonds and shares,
with some good trading in Mergenthaler
much OF IL scraps Of one share lots at

Washington Railway and Electric com
mon sold 80 shares from 4gA up to a
half, with a good call for the stock.
While Mitchell Mining went on the
record for only one sale. there was much
bidding for Il and Greene Copper IN big
blocks. Brokers were vociferous in their
bids for the stock Of both in 100 share
lots, and one enthusiastic dealer said he
would take any part Of 100 shares at a
good price. None of the stock was offered
at any price. except one quotation lot OF

Opinions on the New York Market
Benjamin Woodruff, OF Post & Flag
The market broke through the low
levels made week ago. and discourage
ment and pessimism reign The larger
banking interests apparently do not want
Ia step In and furnish organized support
as they are Disguised with the constant
opposition 10 al business enterprise by
Our legislators, both State and national.
and they consequently prefer o. hold
alocf and let the market drift and work
ont its own salvation. Many trades on
the floor are merely one bear trader sell
ing TO another. but the opposition offered
TO these operations is so slight that prices
constantly work lower. Although the
break to-day has not been violent one,
nearly everything on the list is a point or
more below the closing Of Saturday APP
pearance at present seems 10 indicate a
lower level Of values"
G. Bowie Chapman. Of f. r. Chapman &
Co.-"During the forenoon the market
was rather a nondescript affair At the
same time il must be admitted that dur
ing these two hours some resistance was
shown With the afternoon came in
creased sales, Hquidationg, and more ag-
gressive tactics on the part Of the advo-
Gates OF lower prices. Prices crumbled
rapidly and many stocks made lower
records than for some time News was
mca5er, partly favorable and partly
otherwise. The sale Of the Vanderbilt
notes might be considered favorable;
earnings were SO. call money easy, time
money slightly frmtr Among the un-
favorable items might be mentioned the
report of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission on Standard Oil. and the losses
which the banks have sustained this
week and continued TUmOrs of financial
trouble in London. I would continue a
waiting policy, avoiding commitments Oh
the long side until some Of the questions
in doubt become more settled"

/ I'm many cases copper for immediate
delivery was keenly sought after, and all

chased, not only here, but in almost all
countries In view of the inability of
many producers to spare even small guam

had to face the brunt of the demand, and
( their stocks by no means very plentiful,

TO LOOK INTO PRESERVE.
Pinchot Says Black Hills Sportsmen
Plan Will Be Investigated.

If the plans of some of the sports
men of the Hills carry, there will be
within the next year a game preserve
in the Black Hills. For years the an
nual game season during which hunt
ers may shoot certain species, has re-
suited in great slaughter of grouse
and deer. 1t was seen that measures
must be taken to overcome this or
the game in the Hills would become
depleted. Last year Congressman
tin took up the subject at Washington
and later transferred it to Congress
man Parker, his successor. The lat
ter has just been notified by Chief
Forester Clifford Pinchot thatthe for
est servicedepartment has decided to
investigate the proposed preserve,
twelve miles west Of Custer, and make
a report. If this report proves favor
able, Mr.. Pinchot feels sure that o
gress will appropriate the necessary
amount for the preserve next session.

SCULPTOR AT WORK IN JAIL.
Accused Of Wife Murder, He Models
Royal Group for the Government.

The Italian sculptor, q. Cisariello,
who has been in prison at Naples for
the last eighteen months. has recently
been allowed to practice his art In the
prison. The idea was suggested to
him by a postal carl senr to him by
a friend, with a portrait Of the crown
prince of Italy on It.
He sketched a group showing the
king and queen and the boy and made
application for modelling clay and tools
and for permission to have a child
of three years to visit him daily 10
serve as a model for Prince Humbert.
The tools and clay were furnished,
but the child model was refused.
Cisariello went on with the work
and he has just finished 1t. Fellow
prisoners occasionally posed for the
adult figures, but he had no material
for the child except the postal card.
Notwithstanding this, the work Is
sail to have merit. The government
has ordered the model to be cast In
bronze and the finished work Is to be
set up in front of the prison.
Cisariello's trial Is expected to be-
gin next month.

AS a result Of the closing Of the sa-

fugitive and, should he come back,
will be prosecuted. Others have been
guilty Of violating the new law, but
as they did it with no criminal intent,
claiming ignorance, nothing will be
done with them. The law is a sur
prise to many, and the temperance
committee has decided to publish 1t
for the benefit of those who would not
Intentionally violate it, before starting

USED BY THE DOCTORS.
Ninety Per Cent Of the Drugs Pre-.
scribed Are Patent Medicines.

Despite the opposition Of physicians,
especially Of those whose experience
has been neither far reaching nor
profitable, to patent" medicines, nine
ty per CEN of all drugs that physi-
clans use are put up and compounded
by manufacturing concerns,-are, In
fact, patent medicines just as truly
as IL they were advertised in the
newspapers.
The average doctor knows little or
nothing OF pharmacy and Is, there
fore, glad to depend on the very medi.
cines, which in public he condemns,
just as he is obliged in many cases
to depend on the diagnosis of the pa
tient himself, even while publicly de-
crying what he calls 'self-diagnosis."
How rapid has been the growth Of the
professional use of patent" or PRO
prietary" medicines Is shown in an
article written for the Journal Of the
American Medical Association for
September 29, 1906, by A. jacob, M.
d., Ii. ID. He relates that $4,000 pre-
scriptions, compounded in several
drug stores were carefully examined.
From 1850 to 1870 no prescription was
found for patent or proprietary"
medicines. In 1874 but one prescrip-
ton in $500 called for ready-to-nse
remedies. Between 1875 and 1880 the
number calling for patent" or PRO
prietary" medicines equalled two per
cent Of the total. This increased to
8 per cent in the period between 1880
and 1890. In 1895 it was IL per cent.
in 1898 1t was Is per cent, and in 1902
1903 was from 20 to 20 per cent.
DR.. Jacob says that in a large
store he was assured that 20 per cent
Of the prescriptions were for patent"
or proprietary" medicines, and this
probably is approximately the correct
proportion at the present time. From
this it would seem hat IL the patent"
and proprietary" medicines are good
enough for physicians to prescribe In
seven cases out Of ten they are good
enough for family use in cases OF
necessity and where the symptoms
are we'll known and as easily under.

COUNTY A DEBT.
Hanson Now Has Only 5000 to Pay
on Bonds.

Hanson county is practically out Of
debt, and by the first of the new year
all of it's bonded Indebtedness will
have been cleared up. The biggest
portion of it's debt was paid up a few
days ago, when $4,000 in bonds were
taken in payment for the new court
house, which was erected five years
ago. At that time the bonds were sold
to run twenty years, with the priv
lege Of payment in five years at the
option of the county. The commits
sioners, several years ago, started a
fund with the idea of paying the bonds
within the shorter period. and their
expectations fully were realized when
sufficient money was secured to take
advantage of the option. This leaves
the county in debt but SO 5000, which
becomes due Jan. /, and the money
will be on hand to meet the last of
the bonds. Hanson county will then
be out of debt, and 1t is showing that
few counties in the state can make.
