RUN on NERVE.

The Taxpayers have a right to know
lust what the qualifications are OF the
men who are responsible for the imam
cial conditions Of the community. That
the City is uncomfortable near bank
ruptcy IL clear from the statement OF
MIR, Fernstrom on Monday night That
the situation IS even worse than he de-
picted II. is probably u fact Under the
circumstances. the public is Interested
in knowing what the outlook Is for the
future.
IT is not encouraging. According 70
circulating rumor, some time ago The
question came up In the finance COM
mittee of raising the salaries of Ger
tain employees Of the city, one OF
the members Of the committee pointed
out how imprudent It would be to make
appropriations when there are no funds
10 draw upon, The reply TO this was
that the city has been IN as bad a
position as II IL now, but that some
way out has always been found, and
that this would be the case again.
Asked what could be done. they adj
they added the city could be run a
long ting on nerve What can the
citizens hope for, when those who hold
tho public purse strings arc so hope
lessly Incompetent and Indifferent to
consequences?
II seems pretty clear that some IL
legal Juggling with the city funds has
taken place. which, perhaps, some cit
izcn may feel called upon To have in-
vestigatcd In court. But such Juggling
will not remedy the consumption Of the
purse from which the City suffers. Pay
ing last years warrants with this years
revenue. for instance. and then drawing
ON next years income Is no cure. The
void will have TO be filed some time,
and the Taxpayers will object very ems
phatically to any further increase in the
already heavy burden knowing as they
do, 4, their money has been sQuan-
dered.
There is no need of running the city
to tho verge of financial ruin. In times
past the taxes were endurable. and
yet improvements were constantly
made and the city had a comfortable
surplus at the end of each year This
was the fact until the City govern
meut was captured. fraudulently It was
thought, by a gang whose ambition II
was to down the Mormons. They
did not succeed In that, but they made
the City hiss and bye-word, and
the gang was finally ''downed" by the
citizens. The situation is similar now
TO what it was then.

WHY CELEBRATE THE FOURTH

That we celebrate the Fourth day OF
the Declaration OF Independence on
July 4, 177s, is a narrow and Inadequate
view. Holidays and celebrations that
merely look backward have only u
historical Significance. If we regard
the day as commemorative only OF ths
successful issue OF the war of the Revo-
luton. then the holiday has lost the
best part Of its meaning and is devoid
of it's truest import. Not many, in

NATION ALL WRONG, ~'s@
DECLARES ROCKEFELLER
Says Roosevelt Administration Is Destroying
Prosperity.

Cleveland his game of golf,
few days ago, John D. Rockefeller
took another slap at "the Admins
tration," as he invariably styles
President Roosevelt. Curiously
enough, he said he regarded Secre-
tary Taft as sound and conservative
man, despite Mr.. RooseVelts efforts
to nominate the Secretary of War.
Rockefeller sees nothing ahead but
disaster to the business interests of
the country as long as his oil trust
and kindred monopolies are pursued.
Here are some of the things he said:
"The policy of the present Admin
istration toward great business COM
binations of all kinds has only one
result. 1t means disaster to the coun-
try, financial depression and financial
chaos.
"The country already has a fair
dose of this since the extreme penalty
imposed on one corporation, with a
limited number of shareholders, has
caused loss of confidence, reflected
In falling stock market, a tighten
ing of money and fear of the future.
What will be the effect when sim
liar action is taken against corpora
tions with myriads of stockholders
scattered throughout the country, the
investors, the widows, the orphans?
There can be but one answer The
present situation will be intensified
many fold. 1t does not require an ex-
pert to reason this out. The most
superficial thinker can do it. 1 will
go further and say to-day that be-
cause of the Administration with its
reports every five minutes of new &c
tions and of heavy fines, the country
is already beginning to drift toward
the rocks Of financial depression.
Confidence is gone, and confidence
Is the basis OF all prosperity. With
confidence established there can be
no stopping of the wheels of progress.
Without 1t all Is at standstill. The
investor, great and small, locks up
his money and refuses to venture
forth.
Requests are coming to me to-day
for money from quarters 1t was least
expected would be asking for money
some time ago. To-day / was Of
fered the unprecedented interest of
seven per cent. for 81 100000 or $2,-
100000 or 100000. The security
was beyond all criticism. That would
be impossible in this country If there
was confidence enough to unlock the
money vault of the country.
II know that the railroads of the
United States to-day are unable 10
borrow money for any length of time.
1T is really of no great moment
to me. l am through with business.
Loas or gain no longer affect me I
am content as l am to-day. l am in
better health than / have been for
many years. l am happier than |
have been for twelve years or more.
Why are men making these offers to
me now? 1t is because Of lack of
confidence. Not lack of confidence
in the resources of the country, not
because there is any danger of foreign
entanglements, not because of crop
failures nor of the monetary poNcy,
nor of any social condition, but
lack of confidence in this Administra-
ton"
