CARNEGIE ON WALL STREET


That old Scotch head of Andrew Car
negie is pretty level in it's views OF
Wall street. Mr.. Carnegie says, in
substance, that Wall street is largely
gambling place, and that legitimate
business men ought to boycott such
gambling.
"a few gamblers in Wall street are
the trouble" said Mr.. Carnegie, in
speaking of financial matters. IF a
man has gambled and sold short and
the stock goes down he is delighted
but the fellow who has sold and finds
the price is going up when he has not
got the stock is the man who thinks
that really the president is going toe
far. It'll be a good day for this coun-
try OF any other when the gamblers
come to grief. wish I could invent
a plan whereby both parties would come
to grief.
IT speak as a business man, and ]
say that I have never made a dollar
by gambling in stocks. 1 would as
soon do it as would gamble at cards
or bridge, and don't see much diff
ference.
Let me speak as a plain business
man. Wall street is not America, and
even in New York there are other
places than Wall street. Gambling is
not business; it is a parasite feeding
on values and creating none. 1t is time
for us business men to rise and de-
cline to recognize the men who make
money and render no value for it by
manufacturing something or giving
something in exchange"
There is a vast difference between
investments and speculation. When a
man invests in proposition he expects
of the investment or out of its steady
and legitimate increase in value. When
a man speculates, the earnings of what
he buys are a secondary matter. He
expects to profit by the sudden rise or
fall in the price of the property itself
If he thinks the price will rise, he
buys to sell later. If he thinks the
price will fall, he sells short at pres
ent prices, expecting to deliver the goods
later when he can buy them more
cheaply.
Wall street is a place of speculation
and not Investment Investors care
fully consider the property they buy.
Spectators do not care whether the
ested only in the rise and fall of prices,
regardless of real values and earnings.
1t would be a blessing to legitimate
business If all speculation could be
suppressed. Speculation is not business
any more than is gambling; but specu-
lation Injuries business just as ordinary
gambling does when it is INDUCED in
by business men.

hundreds of new settlers came into all
parts of western Kansas and after the
six continuous years of convincing
proof that this is a safe farming terri
tory for a practical farmer, were will

With bumper crop in 1907 that

ANOTHER OBJECT LESSON.

One cause of the dreadful railroad
wreck at Cotton, Calf, last week was
that the engineer was running too fast
through the yards at Colton-faster
than the rules of his company permit
ted. According to the rules he should
nave slowed down so that he could have
mad his train under control when he no
ticed that the fatal switch was open.
instead of that, he was running SO fast
that only a moment or two elapsed be-
tween the time he saw the open switch
and the instant his engine struck it.
And the reason why the engineer was
running so fast was because his train,
the Sunset express from New Orleans,
was several hours late and he was try
ing to make up time. It was another
case Of too fast a schedule-with the
usual results. The heavy train had not
been able to keep up with the sched-
ule. OF course every good engineer
comes as near the schedule as possible.
and SO the engineer on this Inflated
train tried to make up time at the ex-
pense OF disobeying other orders and
rules-and twenty-five human lives were
sacrificed. OF course others also dis
obeyed rules in leaving the switch open.
Two things ought to be enforced on
all railroads: The schedules ought to
be made no faster than they can be
maintained IN safety under ordinary
conditions. and every employe connect
ed with the operation of trains ought to
be held to strict obedience of rules. 1t
is said that trainmen are continually
taking chances" In ninety-nine in
stances no harm comes from the infrac-
tons. and this encourages disobedience,
but the hundredth time results in a
disastrous wreck
Travellers in Europe state that one
reason there are so few wrecks there is
that trainmen are trained in strict
obedience. Rules are rules with them,
and there are no infractions-and few
wrecks
