Not a whOop Heard
Chicago Inter Ocean.

ChIcuBO Inter ocean,
The dispatches say tina Khartum was
disappointed at it's first glimpse of Mr..
Roosevelt. Even to that remote city the
legend of his rough riding had found It's
way and the crowds were expecting him
to live up to his reputation.
But instead of an exhibition OF rough
riding, they saw nothing but a man clad
in worn clothes who walked silently
through silent files Of soldiers and disap-
peared in the house prepared for his recep-
ton without emitting so much as a whoop.

Last time Mr.. Bryan toured in for

home with him, and then back-tracked
before the week was up, This time
he left his new paramount issue of
county prohibition in cold storage be-
fore his departure and had it sprung
during his absence, and. presumably,
will have fortified himself sufficiently
TO stay with It when he gets back.

PIERPONT MORGAN,s POWER.
Properties Owned and Influenced
Worth Ten Billion Dollars.

NAANANhioPblA9 ANVNSs
A few days ago the New York World
showed that the properties owned or con-
trolled or influenced by Mr.. Morgan were
worth $40, 1886, 1852, 900. He directly controls
railroad, Industrial, banking and insur-
ance corporations capitalized at 4, 1S3, 49,
600. He is a power in the management Of
the New York Central railroad, the Pull
man company, the Lake Shore, Michigan
Central, Harlem, Atchison, and other rail-
roads which are stocked and bonded for
S~2,O36,OS5, 900. Other companies in which he
is a power are the American Telephone and
Telegraph, the G~uggenheim Alaska syndi-
cate, several great New York banks, the
Chinese railroad syndicate, the General
Electric company, the Adams Express COM
pany, and the republics of Honduras and
Panama. The stocks and bonds of these
concerns aggregate $7l6, 900, 600. The total,
as we have seen, is more than SO, 900, 600, OOO.
The four great Morgan banks in New
York, Philadelphia, London and Paris are.
as the World says, believed to
resources amounting to $1,000, 900, 600. And
II ere are said to be other properties in
which he is interested through his part
ners capitalized at about $500, 900, 900. The
World sums the Morgan holdings up thus
Morgan's own companies. ........ So S3, 4S1, OO

Now, as we say, this Is not a question
Of dollars, but a question OF power. And
1t is a question Of power in its relation
TO government and to the by
the individual citizen of the necessities Of
life. We can limit and destroy monopoly.
but can We limit bigness? II not, are we
strong enough to control and regulate the
use of such vast power? This is the real
issue before the American people. Within
certain limits fixed by law men have an
undoubted right TO buy whatever property
they are able to pay for. But there is still
the question as to what they propose to
do with 1t. The Morgan interests we know
are powerful. They are all the while reach
Ing out for more power. Our State de-
partment stroVe hard to open a way for
them in China, actually going 30 far as
to force the Chinese government to bor-
row money of them. Naturally these in
terests are much concerned about railroad
legislation. As far as we know the Nor
gan people are not greatly Interested in
tariff legislation. But their relation to the
government is nevertheless always likely
TO be close. Here then is the question. II
Is now money, and not military prowess
that gives men power. Some way we must
find means to prevent its abuse.

GEN, SUPERINTENDENT COOPER
STOPS OFF IN BISMARCK

Was Much Impressed With the Vast
Amount of Building Going On and
Thinks We Have Great Future.

General Superintendent c. B. Coop
er of the Northern Express company,
arrived in the city on No. Monday
afternoon and remained until No.
in the evening. He is making tour
of inspection along the line.
He looked over the city while he
was here and was greatly impressed
with the large amount of building
that is going on and with the extern
sive building operations which have
already been planned for next year.
He thinks that Bismarck is destined
to be one of the leading cities of the
country in time, and that it will de.
velop as the surrounding communities
develop.
He talked over the proposed new
building for the Northern Express
company. 1t is proposed to erect 1t
on the lawn Immediately west of the
N p station. 1t is expected that
work on the new structure will be
commenced in the spring. This will
be gladly hailed by the local express
clerks as they are badly crowded for
space in their present location.
Mr.. Cooper is an old express mes
senger and used to run out of Bis
marck. He was stationed on a run
out of this city when Agent r. l..
Walton came to Bismarck in 1888. lie
has been through here several times
since he left but his visit Monday
was the first that he has made for
a number of years.
