Morgan's ST ,s Grip.

Washington, D. :, Nov. q The
New York fnans- 1 newspapers, all
of which are Wall street organs, are
still complaining about the activity
Of the democratic Investigating COM
mittees. They profess to believe that
these Investigations are being carried
on solely for what they call he pro-
cess of making political thunder"
for the approaching campaign. These
newspapers regard every move which
threatens to isturb the Wall street
barons while they are engaged in
their present little occupation of
coupon clipping, as little short of
treason.
In the meantime, information has
been coming to light lately, largely
as an incidental result of the Stanley
Steel committees work, showing the
details of J. P. Morgan's grip on the
Industrial and financial situation in
this country. This information shows
up the tremendous power welded by
this one man in such a manner that
the democrats in congress see more
clearly than ever that their program
will be vindicated if it accomplishes
no other purpose than to demonstrate
how completely single individual
holds it in his power to say whether
| business shall be good or bad; wheth
er the times shall be those of panic
or prosperity.
]. P. Morgan controls more than
half billion dollars of other peo
pies money and he has it in his
power to do with this tremendous
sum as he sees fit Not only does
he hold the cash but he holds it in
such way that it's trusteeship gives
him control Of practically all the big
railroads and Industrial corporations
This one man has it in his power tc
regulate by the wave of his hand, Oh
the nod Of his head the course o.
| the estremendous enterprises OF
which millions of people depend fo
a living
The Stanley committee brought tt
light the fact that the entire casl
balance of the steel corporation
amounting to upwards of seventy-fivt
millions of dollars was on del osit IL
the office of J. P. Morgan e Co.,
private banking concern, not subjec
to the supervision of nation or state
or any other constitutional authority
1t was also discovered that the rail
roads which Morgan dominates ais
keep their balances on deposit in tn
Morgan personally conducted bank
The total of these cash balances run
we'll up toward the half billion mark
This money Morgan can lend t
whom he likes, and he can refuse t
lend to whom he likes. Moreover
the eontral of this wee lth gives hin
the power to dictate 10 other banl
ers in the matter of designatin
where their money is to be loaned
If Morgan does not desire one mar
or group of men, to get a hold c
money with which to develop an er
terprise, he can prevent the none
from being loaned, regardless of ho'
good the security may be, or ho'
worthy the enterprise.
T Thus the destiny of the natio
rests on the whim of one man an
: because the democratic leaders sc
, neither safety nor necessity in th
arrangement, they propose to brin
about it's abolition.
This policy has aroused a stor1
of protest from the financial iourna
, lists who gather up the crumbs thu
fall from, Morgan's table.

Reported That Coast Line Will Build
Into Charlotte

Troy, Nov. 2-The most interest
ing question before the Troy people
at the present time is that of direct
railroad connection with Charlotte,
or some other large city. Men who
are in touch somewhat with the
railroad folk say that the best route
of the Raleigh, Charlotte & Southern
is by way of Troy. These men point
out the fact that there is already
road from Colon to Mount Gilead
and that the Durham & Charlotte
would be glad to sell In addition to
the road already built, it is pointed
out that the most direct route to
Charlotte from Raleigh is by Troy
an2 that the roaC -YoIsI1 nay better
by this route than by any other. And
after all. railroad promoters are
hunting the route that will pay best.
Then there is another story and
with some foundation, too, TO the
effect that the Seaboard Air Line is
contemplating the purchase of tho
| Durham IL Charlotte with the pur-
| pose of running it's through trains
| by way of Henderson, Durham, Troy.
| Norwood, Monroe on to Atlanta, saw
ing some Is miles in mileage from
the North to the South. It is known
that the Seaboard has considered Sc
curing straighter route through the
State
The latest report is that it is the
| Atlantic Coast Line that will take
over the Durham e Charlotte and
| that this big system will enter Char
lotte by way of Troy.

New York, Nov 2-America's s
greatest naval demonstration came to
a climax today with the review of the

to the continental journey of Presi-

City by the Mayor and together
boarded the Mayfiower for breakfast.
The President showed pride in the
great armada which is the biggest
ever reviewed by a president of the
