Anarchy That Is ssJust as Bad.

It seems that the firm of stockbrO-
kers which failed In New York Ow-
Ing millions really used Il capital of
only S50O,OOO to manipulate stocks rep
rcsenting over $1O,OO0OG0. There was
little real value back of any of their
deals, and the large transactions in
which they engaged were the widest
kind of gambling, even for Wall street
This is condition of financial anarchy
and is as destructive of confidence,
which is the soul Of business, as an
other kind of anarchy is, or aims to be,
Of property.
Conservative business men, even
those who believe in stock invest
ments, are continually decrying the
wild methods of speculation which
brought ruin to Brown & Co. and
financial loss to their clients. 1t is
an axiom with conservatives that one
should not risk in stocks money they
cannot afford to loose. The Brown
firm risked but little, yet its patrons
risked and lost millions. Surely no
knot of investors can droptso much in
one furry without,some of the number
feeling it keenly. Here is at least one
field where guarantees of fair deal
are needed. And there already exists
one form of guarantee which eager in
vestors too often overlook-the guar
antee that goes with established repu-
tation. Brokers may be found in every
financial center who draw the line at
methods which if they shall become
general will destroy all. confidence and
bring anarchy on all the business
world.

Emciency In the Public Schools.

Colonel Charles W. Larncd's indlct-
ment of the public schools Of the coun-
try on the ground of their inefficiency,
recently published in the North Ameri-
can Review. Is timely in so far as it
can impress the individual teachers of
the country perhaps. The educational
conventions of the year are over; plans
for the school sessions ahead have
been adopted and will be adhered to
in most cases. The colonel, who is in
structor at West Point, bases his paper
upon experience with applicants for
admission to the Military academy
who have come from the public
schools.
1t appears that out of 351 applicants
for the cadetships examined last March
% failed, and all OF them had studied
an average of ten years in the coun-
try's common and high schools. Ap-
parently every section and nearly
every state was represented in the
poor showing made by the failures.
Colonel Larned states that the require
ments of the examination should easily
he met by all graduates of any well
organized high school" The subjects
called for were not above the high
school classes. Perhaps the failures
included many who would have been
expected by their past teachers to fail
because of their lack of application
while at the public schools. Many
pupils of this kind are to be- found in
most all schools and, while they are
ambitious to get on in the world, ex-
pect to do SO by sheer luck. Some
times, it may be, student failures are
the fault of the school, but, as a rule,
the teachable boy or girl can learn
| enough in the lower school to carry
him to the classes higher up. One
criticism of our educators Is that they
| attempt too much. Doubtless, too.
many pupils at school expect too much
for the work they are willing to put
In and are surprised and resentful
over what is largely their own fault.

The Drift From Bryan.

This drift of Democrats away from
Bryan and over to Taft in many of the
southern states has more significance
than may appear on the surface. 1t
marks a tendency which is undoubt-
edly in operation all over the country.
While the change of base may not be
great enough to sweep any of the old
southern Democratic Businesses into
the Republican column, it will count
for much in the northern and western
states, where there is no negro issue
to hold men in line for ticket whose
head they distrust and whose princi-
pies they hate. Hundreds of thousands
of men who voted for Bryan in his
two previous canvasses will be against
him this year.-Coatesville Times.

Mrs. Elizabeth Baker Ketchum died
in Wilcox, this State, atthe home of her
daughter, Mrs. A. A. Clearwater, on the
morning of Sept. 10, 1905, at the age of
IS years and months. She was born
in Ellenville, n. V, the only child of
Allen Baker, a highly respected resident
of that village. Her father was long con-
nected with the Weston pottery in that
place, and when she was still in her
teens, the late William W. Weston hav-
ing built an establishment for the manu-
facture of stone-ware in Honesdale, Mr..
Baker came here and brought Elizabeth
with him, her mother having died when
the child was two years old. In the
early fifties Miss Baker was married to
William Day Ketchum, of Bethany, who
died about twenty years ago, leaving to
survive him, besides his wife, q con and
daughter, the latter now Mrs. A. A.
Clearwater, and the former Allan Baker
Ketchum, both of Wilcox. Since the
death of her husband, Mrs. Ketchum
has been tenderly cared for at the home
of her daughter. After some years of
delicate health her death came suddenly,
following only a few hours Of suffering !;
and local journal says that "when it
was known that Grandma Ketchum"
had passed away, it was great shock
and there was grief, earnest and sincere. /"
