OUR NElCHBORS, THE MARTIANS.

Prof. Todd, who spent several months
in South America looking after Mars
comes out in the February Cosmopolitan
with the plain, blunt statement that the
earth's next door planetary neighbor is
inhabited, and he knows what he is talk
ing about. Mars was at opposition and
only 38 100000 miles away when Prof.
Todd drew his celestial investigator on
it and caught it in the act. But, not
asking the world to accept his bare as
sertion in a matter of such importance,
he secured large lot of photographs
that look like an assortment of small
agate marbles or unarticulated rabbits
eyes, which, of course, prove conclusive
ly to any reasonable man that Mars is
not only inhabited, but a iam-up busi-
ness place. Next year Mars will be &c.
900, 900 miles away instead of 38, 100000
and Prof. Todd hopes to catch the Mar
tians all out at the ball games and get
some better views. AS companion
piece to Prof. Todd's proof that Mars is

OF HISTORIC INTEREST.

From recent interesting letter by
Bishop Galloway, rehearsing his visit
to numerous points of interest in the
historic city of Charleston, S. c., the
following paragraphs are taken:
When in Charleston made a curious
historic discovery, and learned for the
first time that negroes were ever slave
owners. Of course, knew that some
Indians = notably Greenwood Leflore,
chief of the Choctaws, and others-had
large property in slaves, but was inno-
cent of the fact that negroes were the
slaves of other negroes. In examining
some bound volumes of city record con-
tanning the tax lists, found this entry:
"Maria Watson (colored)-Real estate;
value, SAL SIS. Slaves, H." since
this discovery l have learned OF other
cases in several States.

throbbing with intelligent life, Charles
G. D. Roberts ably describes by pen and
picture the population and animals he
has met there. If Prof. Todd's sum-
ming up needed any additional proof, it
is found in Mr.. Roberts well-chosen
words, and especially in his photo
gragphs.~ The beings and "varments"
he oably portrays do really exists some
where, for hundreds of men in the de-
lirlum wards of the hospital have seen
'em all-ballon headed, cros-eyed, web
footed, snaggle-toothed, long-snouted,
feather covered, lax and flimsy figures
that flock in and out, supposed to come
from nowhere md to be in no hurry to
get back home. Thus, knowing that
Mars is inhabited, and that question out
of the way, Prof. Todd might take few
equally long range snapshots of the
Republican party revising the tariff, and
Mr.. Chambers might describe the flocks
of thought that fluttered thro' Uncle Joe
Cannon's mind during the reading of the
presidents last message.-Ft. Worth

N. O. Morning World:

We should learn to detect the differ
ence between attending to our own
business and that of others. The man
who comes to me and tells me that we
should have prohibition for the sake of

that we should all take peppermint be-
cause the baby has the collie. It is a
false doctrine try to legislate out OF
existence something which is not malum

wong the weak make Of it. Take care
of the weak all you wish, but wait until

You might as well prescribe an univer-

THANKSGIVING EVE
 OA STOCK MARKET
EXCHANGE LIVELY AND PRICEs GO UP EARLY IN DAY, BUT MARKET sAGs AGAIN DURING LAST OF SESSION.

NEW YORK, November 25-The eve of holiday is looked to for some closing up on outstanding speculative accounts. That fact and the scare ad ministered to the shorts by tho revivpl of strength in the market yesterday eonduced to active buying today, which wont on during the first two hours of the session on the stock exchange. Dur ing that period, tho buying was suffi cient to enable the market to tsand up against the heavy profit taking sales Thereafter, the resisting power of the market weakened and lower prices were restored. Southern Pacific carrid to Q new record price of l20k, and Union Pacific sold at the highest price of the present year, 1s45s.
 These are exceptionally strong stocks, but their course served as an index to the tendency.
 Tho disposition to sell on favorable developments was perceptible in the decline in the copper industrials on the announcement of an advance in tho price of copper at the New York metal exchange, after successive declines for several days past. There was sharp advance in London for copper also. A rise of point in Atchison was lost on the publication of the statement of the earnings for October, which was favor able with gain in net over October of last year sf $496,3OO. The agitation for reduction of the duties on steel had some depressing effect on United States Steel stocks.

The steel manufacturers of this country have the best and cheapest sup ply of raw material there is in tEe world, and they have the richest and largest market for their products close at hand. This is enough for anyone The steel business would prosper with. out A protective tariff, while the coun. try and the railways in particn'sr would be benefited by lower prices. The United States Steel Corporation vii: have the Gary plant in operation be fore the duty comes of steel, if 1t ever does, and will make up in quantity whar it might lose in percentage of profit It is clear that the sentiment of the country is strongly toward lower du ties all around and the tariff will be more of factor later on thau it is now.
 The bull and the bear can each pre-. sent a strong case. In nutshell, the bull dwells upon the encouraging re. vival in business, the inspiring behavior of the stock market heretofore, and the plethora of cheap money as a gusran- tee that prices will continue to advance. The bear takes note of these same mat, ters, but interprets them differently. He argues, and with truth, that the so- called industrial boo mhas been gro. tesquely overstated; he contends that the radical rise already enjoyed by stocks is the best of reasons for con. tending that the movement has already been overdone, and as for cheap money, he argucs that rates win most certainly advance as soon as the eountry's busi- ness approaches normal volume.
 "While some further irreguiarity is likely, we are inclined to believe that
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1908-11-26

all recessions will afford excellent op- portunities for purchases which will be productive of early prift. We see no change in those underlying conditions which make for bull market. It may he that stocks have already discounted great deal of the industrial and com mercial prosperity that is expected, but with the whole country showing con fdence in the early realization of its optimistic prophecies, with money abundant and cheap, and with no sign of. disturbances of any sort, the path for further improvement in security values seems to us to be reasonably clear.
