WALL STREET NOTES.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-An invig-
Grating effect was produced on. the
stock market this week by the inter-
probation placed upon the Presidents
message BY financial opinion and by the
reduction in the Bank of England dis
count rate. The tone of the Presidents
message was pronounced moderate and
conservative and as manifesting a solic-
itude for business interests. The re-
ported disinclination of the congress
sional leadership to enter on radical
Legislation was q favoring factor. The
Bank Of England's action il accepted
as indubitabie evidence Of the relaxa-
ton of money conditions. Its coming
before the turn of the year was un-
expected. The result is expected to be
helpful for coming capital dotations
which confront the New York market.
Uptown Senliment-A representative
of Il large and well-known commission
house says that he does not look for
the market 10 expand materially within
the next few weeks. He does not see
any reason for being pessimistie, nor
does he see good reason for advancing
prices sharply and generally. In his
opinion, the market will continue
to nuctuate within a range of from
s to ) points, with special activity in
a few stocks. Other interests who are
in u position 20 get good informptio n

OF the most powerful factors in the

NO CLOSED
SEASON FOR
NEVADA KNOCKERS

The people of this county, particu-
larly of this part of it. are getting
over the old habit of knocking as was
evidenced here recently in a very
surprising and gratifying manner.
But the mere abstention from the
absolute knock or back cap" is
not enough. We must go further and
get in the habit of boosting" as it is
practiced in other and prosperous
communities, mining and Industrial.
We have weeded out the saying of
mean things about properties, now
let us quit the evil habit of judging
our neighbors, friends and especial
ly our visitors. We must meyer al
low ourselves to pronounce on any
mans Intentions or his ability to
carry out such intentions nor. even
his financial standing, without the
most unquestionable proof to support
our word. And even when we know
Of the impecuniousity of a promoter
yet we should be chary of expressing
our knowledge, unless some good is
to come from it, some property to be
protected, some friend to be spared
a loss. For mines are often put in
operation by men who are unable to
sign a sizeable check, and yet the
mine may become paying and per-
manent enterprise.
In Nevada there is no closed season
for knockers or even for pessimists
and by the latter we mean those who
are always decrying prosperity, al
ways advising delay, always shouting
or whining wait awhile and see."
This waiting business never bought
anyone an automobile and never will.
In Nevada there is an unwritten
code of conduct 1t is, Hands off
your neighbors' investor and
boost your neighbors' proposition.
Then, If you get a buyer every one
interests himself ito make your
angel know that yours is just the
property he wants, the one thing he
needs. That is boosting and that is
what we want here. With it our
mines will astound the world as well
as enrich it.
Let our motto be: Boost first,
last and all the time"
