HARTMAN, THE STREET AND
THE COUNTRY.

If. and it has been strongly intimat-
is grave, the street may be deprived of
a tremendous factor in it's operations
but the country will survive The con-
Germ of the nation attending the return
of the capitalist has been confined to
small section. The disturbance to a
small area The unsettlement, which
has followed on the good, bad and in
different reports of the gentleman's
state of health, has had a seismic ef-
feet on the stock market, but has not
! disturbed the business welfare of the
nation
Spectators and men involved in the
manipulation of securities are always
looking for something to put stocks up
or down. The interest which centers
in Hartman is a vital one. Absolute
master of great railroad properties,
| controller of millions of dollars out
side of his particular companies, holder
of threads still to be woven into the
great schemes that has brought him
old age if not the contamination to be
wished; the street hangs breathless on
| the chaos that may come at any time.
| 1t. is not the fashion these days for
any man so involved in great financial
undertakings to leave his affairs in
vulnerable shape. Behind Hartman
are great banking firms and no doubt
his house had been put in order. OF
our present operators, however, there
! is no man who has stood so unhamp-
p, cred by advice or checked by limita =
tons and this adds to the sensitive
ness of the street.
Another factor that gives the street
shivers is the present state of the stock
market The country, without the gen
eral public being really aware of it
has been in the fever of rising quota :
tons. In the last two or three months

have been too busy and too charv tc
take the nigh priced STOCKS off of the
hands of the manipulat0rs 1t is EN-
barrassing at this stage of the game
to have Mr.. Hartman come home {
very sick man.
Although stocks have declined from
a high level the country has not liuui-
date any of its wealth. The eight bill
lion dollars which will be taken from
the earth this crop season are beyond
the power of any man to destroy.

of study of the higher educational in
stitutions.
One of the severest critics is Prof.
Charles Mills Gayley of the University
at the last commencement exercises of
the University of Michigan he protest
rallies, rehearsals of the glee club, re-
hearsals for dramatics fraternity dane
es and suppers, jollying the girls, much
running around and talking rubbish
generally, there is not much time left
for the one great activity of the COL
lege, which should be study.
And he stigmatizes the students en-
gagged in the activities he condemns as
"Bander-Logs, which is the name APP
piled in Kiplings Jungle Book to the
monkeys On the other hand. Mr.. The
odore Stanton, in an article on the sub
ject in the August number of the North
American Review, ayers that the Stu
dent Activities constitute one of the
finest elements in the undergraduate
life of our American colleges
The whole matter would seem to
simmer down to one degree and pro-
portion. Some social life is absolutely
necessary for the students. If they
should buckle down and become mere
book worms and reciting automatons,
they would leave college awkward, shy,
reserved and little fitted to mingle with
the great world outside. On the other
hand, if they neglect their studies for
their social activities, they will go
forth poorly equipped in knowledge and
mental discipline.
1t is the mission of the college fac
ulty to prescribe the golden mean, to
guide the students in the way they
should go and to enforce proper dis
ciplne 1t ought not to be difficult to
restrain an excess of zeal in the social
activities and to stimulate a proper
degree of zeal in study and class work.

of that sort of rivalry in the voting
that will cut a big figure in the contest
before it is over" But that does not
indicate there is any rivalry in the
towns outside of Walla Walla-not for
moment. What do the people of this
city and community care what there is
in the towns outside of Helena And
how much longer is the rivalry pro-
duced by the copyrighted" contest in
the Montana town going to continue?
The Statesman admits almost total ig-
norance as to the methods of con-
Quoting copyrighted" contests, but
would rise to ask if the copyright pre-
vents the bune manager from chang

the name of the rag to be changed to

stincts Of human nature. Whenever
the farmer realizes a good substan-
tial price for his products he has that
much more money to spend with the
merchant the business man and ali
classes, and whenever, you see high
prices in the inland empire you find
the farmer busy spending his sur
plus in the necessaries of life and in
the Improvement of the farm.
Let me say right here that Mr.. Pet
erson's business would indeed be very
tame We're it not for the prosperity
Of the farmers. One of the objects of
the farmers organizations is to bring
all classes of industries more closely
together that they may mutually CO.
operate together in the building up of
great industriec of our country, but
this can never be done as long as false
statements are made and scattered
broadcast all over the country by men
assuming to be more wise than any
other class of men and going out of
their lines of business to criticise and
censure the opinions of the class of
men who have built up this country"

sonal judgment. If they have No. l,
blue stem milling wheat, it ought to
command a higher price than it does
at present, and l think it not dang
erous to hold for better prices.
Il suppose there is no number of
the Farmers Union so vain as to think
that we can control export prices, but
one thing we can do, and that is,
to pool our grain in local houses and
send samples of the pool to our state
agent at Tacoma and get better prices
than selling each individual lot alone.
IF wheat is now IS per cent above
normal price, as Mr.. Patterson states,
then the normal price would be As
cents. A condition very much desired,
doubtless by Mr.. Peterson and the
wheat combine for cheap wheat en-
ables them to handle very much more
with the same amount of money. Mr..
peterson says he is not personally con-
cerned whether there is one million or
one hundred million. This statement
from a man of Mr. Peterson's reputa-
ton is appalling, but any business man
is entirely Indifferent as to the prices
received by the farmers for their pro-
ducts is certainly a most appalling
statement and manifests a selfish dis
position opposed to all the better in

of certain mortgages and claims held

RAIDER & Barker claimed that they
were void.
1t was brought out in the case that
Hollon Parker, nearly so years old, an
invalid and a resident of Portland. is
president of the company that he had
deposed in trust to Orrin G. Parker
and C. X. Holloway, 996 shares of
capital stock in the Hollon Parker COM
pany. Later it is said, these two men
in connivance illegally and unlawfully
signed the name of the Hollon Parker
company to certain notes and mortg
ages. 1t was also brought out that the
license of the Hollon Parker company
had expired and was not renewed I'M
til after the suit for a receiver was
instituted. The plaintiffs attorneys
showed that during the time when
Hollon Parker transferred his stock in
trust and the time when one share was
transferred back to him so that he
might qualify as a director in the cor

elapsed when the corporation was with

THE PROTEST OF THE CHINESE
GENTRY.

An unexpected development in the
new Chinese foreign loan serves to
remind the occident that the great
Asiatic nation may be still imbued with
the notion of representative govern
ment. Much was heard of a constitu-
ton less than a year ago, but the agi-
tation was thought to have died down
In the protest which has been made
by the gentry of the province of HUI
peh to the grand councillor Chang
Chi-Tung at Pekin against the grant
ing of the Hankow- SEE Chuen railroad
voice of the people resenting the &C
ton of the central power. China is a
country so beset with foreign intrigu
int it is not always certain that a ma
tive complaint is not fomented by spe
cial interests The fact that the United
States used diplomatic channels to
force participation of American capt.
tai makes the present move open to
suspicion.
The basis for the complaint. however,
is good. With American capital de-
string to exercise rights permitted by
agreement the situation was met by
increasing the amount of the loan. If
some other nation had insisted upon
4 \
enforce its claim the financial and
governmental powers would. probably,
have increased the loan further in or
der To take them in. From the view
point of the gentry of Hupeh this meant
that China, as nation, has little to
say in managing its own financial af-
fairs. If the country has really been
aroused by this event and is still de-
sirous of strong national govern
ment. Pekin may have to face an en-
barrassing situation.
The present protest, we are told, is
not without precedent. At times they
have been serious and at other times
inconseQuential. 1t will be interest
ing to note the result of this movement
If the unrest that followed the estab-
lishment of the new emperor is still
alive and the constitutional form OF
government still in the hearts of the
people more may come of the Hupeh
