SPECULATION IN RUBBER.

Just at the present time the finances
of the world are unsettled TO a greater
o. less extent by enormous speculation
in rubber company shares which had its
inception in London and finally spread
TO Paris. Prices are abnorItally high,
and some fear has been expressed In this
country that a crash viii follow when
the limit has been reached by the bulls
on the other side of the water. London
has controlled the rubber market for
many years. In the course of an ex-
tensive review of the situation, a special
agent of the United States makes the
following report:
Rubber plantations are being continu-
ally financed in London, and approx
maSely some 800 plantations are owned
by capitalists in the United Kingdom.

SHORT TRIAL SUFFICIENT.

The Cincinnati scheme to secure more
daylight has failed. Last year, with a
flourish of trumpets an ordinance was
passed under the provisions Of which
the clocks in the Ohio town were to be
set two hours fast from May to October.
The purpose was to start the people to
work earlier in the morning and let
them off earlier in the evening. 1t was
figured out, automatically and other
wise, that great boon was about to be
conferred upon all classes by routing
them out of bed Just at the time when
close association with Morpheus is most
highly priced. Evidently the people did
not take kindly to the innovation, for
the ordinance has en- repealed after
one years trial. II vas a beautiful
scheme, only it failed 20 work.

POLITICS AND POLICY.

Governor Charles Z. Hughes ringing
message to the New York legislature
calling upon that body to institute ian
smmediate, impartial, thorough and I'M
eparing investigation into legislative
practice and procedure, and into the use
of corrupt or improper means for the
promotion or defeat of legislation" is
another earnest that while there are
evidences every day of graft and cor
Eruption in high places, there are also
evidences of honesty in high places,
and that there is more honesty than
mere is corruption. As Republican Gov
srnor of New York. Charles E. Hughes
Is the tituIar head of the Republican
party in that state. There have been
shocking revelations of the use of money
to secure or defeat legislation there,
land the country has stood aghast at the
cold blooded testimony given before the
legislative committee by some very
prominent citizens of that state, AL
though the testimony has shown that
the corruption in that state has not
been confined to any one political party,
the Republican Governor of the Empire
state has risen to the emergency. The
New York legislature VIII do well TO
follow his advice.
Governor Hughes is also another evil
dence of the fact that while honesty
is the best policy, it is also the best
politics Like President Taft and his
Industrious predecessor. Theodore Roose-
Welt, all parties look alike to him when
lit comes to striking at dishonesty and
corruption All members of the great
party that is responsible for national
progress and prosperity, they have
hewed along the same lines. and they
have cared not at ali into whose door
yard the chips have fallen. The Re
publican party can always be depended
upon 10 do the right thing. The mere
fact that dishonest men are members
tof that party has never deferred the
headers of the party in city. state or ma
ton from melting out just punishment
TO them. The people of New York state
can rest assured that if il lies within
the power of Governor Hughes, the
grafters will be punished, and they viii
be made an object lesson 10 others of
their ilk who look 10 that sort of thing
TO put them beyond want.
II is good 10 be a Republican in these
days. Never has this great party stood
more firmly for honesty, and never
have the leaders Of the party been more
determined that the right shall prevail.

gasear. Malacca, British Borneo, India,
Burma, New Guinea and the Malay
Peninsula. In addition to this, It must
be remembered that the shipping facili-
ties by the merchant marine OF the
United Kingdom, the direct lines of
communication with the producing
countries, and a government subsidy
give England a great advantage.
London has a rubber growers associa-
ton, with a membership of some 200
rubber planters and others Indirectly
interested in rubber growing. In the
reading room of this association there
are between so and so rubber journals,
from all the rubber-growing countries
Of the world. Antwerp has also a rubber
growers association, and many rubber
plantations were financed from that
city.
The principal members oe the large
manufacturing firms Of rubber goods
have secured controlling stock in some
Of the best-paying rubber plantations,
and thus. by knowing the actual cost
of production, are placed in 4 position
to protect themselves on prices.
There are rubber trees in South and
Central America and in Mexico, and at
least half of the output from the prin-
cipal markets goes to Europe. some
Of which is presumably re-expOrted to
the United States. Having no vessels
in the carrying trade. this country is
placed at a great disadvantage in doing
business with South America, not alone
in the rubber trade, but coffee and
other products as well. 1t will be noted
that the report of the special agent
gives prominence to the fact that the
direct lines of communication with the
producing countries are heavily subsi-
died, which Of course gives the United
Kingdom a great advantage. In spite
of ali the outcTy made against the up
building of a merchant marine in the
United States, ii seems certain we shall
have to follow the lead of Great Brit
ain, Germany, Holland and%the other
commercial nations If we are to get a
fair share of the trade of the world.

pEcApENcE IN FRANCE.

Once more the Paris newspapers are
having conniptiOn fits over the fact that
the population of the republic is not
increasing, owing TO the exceedingly low
birth rate of recent years. The Soleil
believes that in &c tain time France
viii be crowded out Of existence by Ger
many, whose population continues to
increase by reason of the fact that race
suicide is practically unknown. The
Royalists blame the French revolution
for the depopulation of France, claim
ing that prior to that time France was
in the vanguard of the nations instead
of tagging behind as at present. II
used TO be said that Napoleon sacri-
feed the lives of three generations Of
French soldiers. Certainly many eggs
were broken in the making Of his ONE
lettes, the disastrous Russian mid-win-
ter campaign being no exception to the
rule. But whatever the original cause
or the ultimate result, the fact that too
few children are being born in France
in proportion to the population stands
prominently forth. The Soleil, which
doubtless believes the placing of a Bour-
bon on the throne would increase the
birth-rate as well as restore the ancient
and decayed aristoeracy, mournfuIly
says:
We can see how the two systems of
primogeniture and equal partition
operate. Primogeniture meant the
conservation of property. EQUAL par

Under the one system we see the in

Pads and Fashions
By Florence Fairbanks

NEW YORK, February 24.-.Easter comes unusually early this year and it is probably due to that fact that the fashionable shops, regardless of the in clemency of the prevailing weather, are making large displays of spring and early summer styles. The models that have already come from Paris or that have been copied from French models or sketches by New York makers prom ise handsome things for the later sea son. The display includes new lingerie and lace models for the Riviera season. They are in most cases extravagantly elaborate, as the mOdsh lingerie frocks are apt to be nowadays.
 Every importer is showing wonderful confections of this type, composed of laces, embroidered nets, silk mousseline, mulls, batistes, linons and other sum mery material. Often five or six differ eut materials are combined in one frock. Then there are scores of flmy white frocks which, while following the gen eral lines of the lingerie models, include no lingerie material at all
 Irish lace, which showed signs of waning vogue, comes boldly to the front again in connection with such frocks, but the Italian laces have an increas- ing vogue, and where expense need not be considered, real Venetian plays a considerable part in these frOcks.
 Princess lines are best adapted to this type of model, though the sheerer and less striking lingerie models show a decided leaning toward the one.piece blouse and skirt lines and to girdled ef- fleets. Sheer robes of mousseline or lin on, fine lace and hand embroidery are often accompanied by rich coats of hea. vier lace, usually Irish, this heavy lace, in smaller quantities, being also mingled with the fine lace of the robe.
 The shops also display large as- sortment of simpler and less expensive lingerie frocks that will actually stand washing. Some of the one-piece models offered are admirable in design and show more chic than any home seam stress is ever likely to obtain. Hand kerchief linen, the French lincn, while expensive, gives better service than any other very fine and dainty lingerie ma terial and is a better investment than batiste or null but either of these lat ter materials makes up attractively, and the new cotton etamines and cotton crepes are also desirable and will be much used. Some of the fine lawns too can be used, though most of them have too much body and not enough softness for the best effects.
 Good German Valenciennes is the fa- vorite trimming and need not be real to be satisfactory, but the narrow Cluuy or Irish with which it is almost invaria- bly associated should be real lace, and
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1910-02-27

it is far better to use a very small quantity of the genuine than large
 quantity of the imitation lace.
 Linen frocks are among the most ser
 viceable and attractive tub frOcks. The range of cOlors and weaves this season is more beautiful than ever before. Most of these materials have a softness that gives them the semblance of the hand
 woven linens and makes them both
 more beautiful and more serviceable than the stiffer, shinier, surfaced linens of former years. Some of the new weaves have a decided luster like tus- sore. There are all kinds of diagonal weave linens, embroidered linens, bor- dered linens, striped linens, checked lin- ems, dotted linens, corded linens, etc.. but the most attractive of all is the soft, dull finished weave of handwOven aspect, and in this one many charming colorings may be found.
 The return to the normal waistline is nowhere more clearly illustrated than in the suit coats being brought forward by the leading tailors of Paris and New York. Another commendable and strik- ing feature of the current styles in tail Ored suits is the use of the belt, par tially or entirely encircling the waist of the coat. By adding such belt ar rangement it is possible to bring up to date last year. s tailOrmades. The belt, however, must be of the straight, stiff variety and calculated to make a straight line about the waist, and should therefore, be of leather or kid. It may be decorated, however, with handsome clasps. The belt is worn in various ways. Sometimes it goes about the waist precisely as the small boy con fines the fullness of his Russian blouse, again it merely crosses the back of the coat, thus taking up the looseness at that point and allowing the front forms to fall straight from the shoulder, or the ends are woven through straps set upon the under-arm seams and then joined directly in front.
 Special attention is devoted this sea son to the sleeve and neck fnishings of tailor made suit coats. While many of the mannish, turned-over, notched collars are joined at about the top of the bust, the tendency is to extend the opening toward the waist line, the bet ter to exhibit the dainty blouse worn beneath the coat. This cut-out scheme calls for the deeply rolling collar which is & distinct feature of the best class of spring models and readily lends itself to the decorative scheme of relief. On the simpler suits the deep, rolling collar is of moire or satin of tone matching or contrasting with that of the suit, while the more elaborately tailored costumes have their collars ap- pliqued or embroidered with exquisite

DENVER, February 26.-The Times says: Deals are now being negotiated in Denver which probably will result in the formation of trust to control 90 per cent of the asbestos output of the world. Officers and representatives of the International Asbestos company, National Asbestos company, Wyoming Consolidated Asbestos company and United States Asbestos Mining & Fiber izing company are here to confer with representatives of English and Califor- mia capitalists regarding the sale of properties to the new interests
 Local and Wyoming interests are in the deal and own about 1,200 acres of asbestos prospecting lands near Casper, Wyo., said to be about all the. avail able known asbestos supply in this country. Nearly 95 per cent of the as bestos used in the United States Is mined in Canada.

blendings of colors, sometimes mingled with gold, developed with heavy em- bpoidery floss or with fine soutache.
 The cuffs of this season s tailormade suit coats also show new ideas in shape and treatment Sometimes the wrist fin ishing is an extension of the under-arm form of the sleeve, an unique combina- tion of the braid and satin trimmings of the jacket, or merely two-inch wide perfectly fitting moire silk band cuff
 Plaited skirts continue to survive the warfare regularly made upon them, and this season plaits of almost any kind are modish, providing that the skirt of which they form part is not too voluminous and hangs perfectly. Box plaits, however, are decidedly in the lead, and that variety which is the spice of fashion, is loaned to the mode by using them alternately with narrow gOres and with straight panels.
 1t is reported from Paris that the Louis XVI model, turned up at the back, is the favorite shape of hats just now. Velvet is allied in bewitching charm with straw, forming an upper surface of some, with a contrasting un- der brim. Old blue straw was effective ly used in an imported model as a fac ing for black velvet hat, the only ornament being huge old-gold cabo- chon in which sapphires were set. These ornaments, by the way, are the favor ite brilliant touch on many of the smartest styles.
 Fumes are demanding a prominent place as trimmings on some straw hats for afternoon wear, although flowers may be said to occupy first place. Roses yelled with tulle form the crowns of black straw hats that are being shown at some of the most fashionable mod. istes. Fancy laces and tulle, it is said, will be used much to drape crowns and brimss of large hats for evening wear.
 Some of the white leghorns which are being worn at southern resorts have their brims faced with black.
 Some of the new hats have embroid- cred velvet crowns.
 Fringe is being used on many of the turbans of draped straw or silk.

DISTRICT MANAGERS
DISCUSS CAMPAIGN

Coming from all parts of the country
from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast
district managers of the Franklin Au.
tomobile company have lust met
ss ssrv 'nS at s1ranss n Y To formS
late plans for their 1911 campaign.
Business and pleasure were combined,
numerous excursion trips IN Franklin
motor cars being taken to poinrs of
interest and business sessions being held
during four days. The participants in
the conference declared it the most
satisfactory one ever held both in point
of new models exhibited and general
business prospects shown.
Discussions of special Franklin inter
ests were held in the conference rooms
at the factory and general assign
ment of territories was made
An announcement of the new body
and hood design of the Franklin air
cooled automobile for 1911 was the
feature of the business sessions, exhibl-
tions of the various models being given
and demonstrations on the road made.
A demonstration of road efficiency
was given with 1911 Franklin motor
truck. This. loaded to it's capacity, was
driven over rough roads, up steep hills
and subjected to the most arduous tests
that could be devised, satisfactorily
meeting them all.
Road tests of the various models
ranging from an eighteen horse power
runabout to a forty eight horse power
siX.cylinder touring car, were "iven as
evidence of power and ease of operation
On the concluding day of the session
run of approximately one hundred and
fifty miles was made. The district man
