STEPHEN IS HIRED MAN
FOR SIMON GUGGENHEIM.

John B. Stephen, Republican candi-
date for governor, is Simon Guggen.
helms man. 1t was in 1904 that Gug-
genheim made up his m:na to make
one last desperate try for the office
of United States senator, the cleo
ton of which would be determined
by the legislature that convened in
1907. Unfortunately for Guggenheim,
the people in 1904 elected a Demo-
cratic governor, Alva Adams, and the
majority in both houses of the legis-
lature were Democratic. With con-
troll OF every department of state In
the hands of the Democrats, Gug-
genheim's chances for two years lat
er faded to shadow.
1t was necessary that something
be done to overthrow the will of the
people, in order that the entire poll
tical situation be reversed, and es-
pecially, that several votes in the
state senate be secured for use two
years later. Then followed that blot
on the states history that ended
with the unseating of Governor
Adams, the packing of the Supreme
court and the theft of the legislature.
These acts were accomplished only
by the expenditure. of fabulous sums
of money. Simon Guggenheim was
the principal, if not the sole contrib
utor to the several slush funds.
During those proceedings John B.
Stephen, then a member of the lower
house, was an active agent of Gug-
genheim and the corporations in con-
summating the 'outrages upon the
state.
In the joint committee that heard
the evidence on the Peabody contest,
he voted with the minority of that
committee to seat Peabody. Later in
the joint assembly of both houses his
vote was the same, to seat Peabody.
Two years later, Mr.. Stephen had be-
come Senator Stephen; Guggenheim's
wicked schemes had prospered. There
was a Republican legislature and
Guggenheim became a candidate for
the United States senate.
A caucus of Republican delegations
of house and senate was held at the
Brown Palace hotel, prior to- the con-
vening of the Sixteenth General AS
sembly. At this caucus, several names
were mentioned, among them Frank
9. Goudy, Joel F. Waffle and others.
Stephen voted in the caucus for Gug-
genheim and when Guggenheim's
name was presented in the legisla-
ture he again registered his choice
for the smelter man.
Stephen supported Guggenheim,not'
withstanding the sentiment Of his
district was strongly against the man.
The last chapter of the story was
written at Colorado Springs on Sep.
goth, when Simon Guggenheim issued
his orders to those in control Of the
Republican state convention that John
B. Stephen should be their nominee
for governor. 1t will prove to be an
empty honor, but Guggenheim has
discharged the Obligations he owes
Stephen.

American and English Ways of Doing

In America SPECTATORS capital

1t Is to be feared that IN only too many
instances il is just this and nothing
more
On the London Stock Exchange an
other method prevails which. says
Moody's Magazine. it il probable has
done more In the long ago past to give
stock speculation its bad name than
all the episodes of an unsavory nature
which have ever occurred on Ameri-
can exchanges. In London after the
inevitable Introduction to Il broker the
new customer gives his order but
makes no deposit at ALL
The broker Is supposed to learn
something of his new clients means
and how far he should be allowed to
commit himself. Twice a month the
English have what they call their set
Element days A customer long of a
stock whose commitment has gone
somewhat against him is then required
to pay the differences. as they are
called. between his purchase price and
the current quotation.
He must also pay charge called a
contango for holding the settlement
over into the next fortnightly period
II he does not wish to close the com
mitment As a consequence of this
way of doing business Speculation
may be trading on a few points mar
gin in reality or. in fact. on no margin
at all. He may be utterly pennileSS
without the broker knowing 1t.
That this method works out with
fewer losses in England than il would
do here is due TO the fact that the
social and economic strata to which an
Englishman belongs are much easier
to determine than the corresponding
facts among us, and also that an intro
duction means more there than here.
as the introducer Is regarded as to a
certain extent responsible morally for
the business department Of his friend.
1t is worth while observing (and this
H the exception referred to above,
that in certain instances the methods
pursued In American stock exchange
houses are the same as those obtaining
in London. Little as the fact Is known.
it is not an unfrequent custom for very
wealthy spectators to have no fixed
margin or even no margin at all with
their brokers.
If a man of this sort loses on COM

for the loss. Ii he wins his brokers

public in cases where the broker is
forced into bankruptcy, whether owing
to this cause or not.
