The World Must Tighten Its Financial Load

The World Must Tighten Its Financial Load
The strain on capital and credit, says
writer on finance, is worldwide. It
looks as if industrial advance in Europe
and America were to be delayed awhile
through tremendous overdrafts having
been made on the worlds available
supply of capital.
Extraordinary expenditures and loans
by European governments for the
Tripolatan and Balkan wars and in
preparations for other wars feared have
played an enormous part in exhausting
the European supply of available cap
ital. But the unprecedented employ
ment OF credit by cities and countries
elsewhere as we'll as there for vast pub
lie improvements has been a larger
cause, especially in the United States,
where the overworking of credit has
been greatest. These two causes
drain on capital and strain on credit
have created the unsalableness Of new
securities in all financial markets.
This increase in public expenditures
for improvements will prove no laugh
ing matter for the next generation Of
taxpayers. AS the north in 1865
shot away huge blocks Of the crops of
1918 through its issues of bonds to
finance its armies, so public authorities
to-day are mortgaging large amounts
of the incomes of the taxpayers OF
1o45. Highway bonds, than which
there are no more expensive borrow
ings Of money, because automobiles
destroy roads rapidly and these bonds
bear interest for so years, are issuing
in great amounts in many districts.
The New York Sun states that last year
municipal borrowings in this country
amounted to $677,402,037, that the
debt of New York city this year is ST.
228, 150,747, and that its yearly mu-
nicipal expenditures has become great
er than the net ordinary expenses OF
the national government in 1880.
The necessary interest charges OF
funded debts are bearing heavily on
taxpayers. In many instances, as in
New York, expanding Indebtedness af-
fects values OF real estate seriously.
Elsewhere, as at Portland, Ore, and in
Idaho last spring the best of issues Of
municipal bonds have failed of sale
because investors mistrust this rush OF
governmental borrowing. Grand Trunk
Pacific As were left on the un-
derwriters hands at 80, as also were
those of New Zealand. the Chinese SIS
give China only "a cents on the dol
lar; and the Grand Trunk and the
Canadian Northern recently had to
have $25, 100000 from the govern
ment of Canada because nobody else
would lend them funds.
The London Economist recently
stated that the world is overloaded"
1t must tighten its financial burdens.
1t is up to every government and to
every business man to consider how
the load may be lessened.

One Auto to Each Hundred Persons

A tabulation OF the number of motor
vehicles in the United States, not in
GLIDING motor cycles, gives an average
OF about one automobile. to each one
hundred persons. In 1911 there was
only one automobile to each one hum
dred and eighty persons. These fig
ures are based on the actual registra-
ton in every state in the union except
nine, where the absence Of registration
laws made it necessary to estimate the
number.

surprising Cure of Stomach Trouble

When you have trouble with your stom-
ach or chronic constipation, don't imagine
that your case is beyond help just because
your doctor fails to give you relief. Mrs.
G. Stengle, Plainfeld, N. j., writes, "For
over month past have been troubled with
my stomach. Everything ate upset it ter
ribly. One of Chamberlain's advertising
booklets came to me. After reading few
of the letters from people who had been
cured by Chamberlain's Tablets, decided to
try them. / have taken nearly three-fourths
ola package of them and can now eat almost
everything that want" For sale by all

him and it furnishes no ground for
detraction.
That he was the personal means of
comforting much benefit upon our
city ana section cannot be success
fully cCntradicted, and that he ex-
pended here more than he took away
is also, we think, beyond dispute.
The Tampa Bay hotel. for many
years one of the city's greatest assets,
is in a sense, Mr.. Plants monument,
and it is fitting that the grounds
surrounding it that his taste and
means first beautified should bear in
perpetuity the name of their origi-
nator
The handsome property that came
to the city from his estate for 1.-THE
of its value should be a reminder al
ways of the kindly feeling that
should exist on the part of the peo-
pie of this community for the mem
DRY of the man who did so much for
it. The name of Plant is not link
ed with any particular object that he
left. 1t was the graceful and proper
thing for the council to bestow it
upon the park.

been sentenced by Judge Van Fleet
in the United States district court to
serve two years in the state peniten-
tiary at San Quentin and to pay fine
OF $4,000 for violating the Mann
white slave traf1c act. F. Drew
Caminetti was sentenced to eighteen
months at San Quentin and to pay a
fine of $500 for a similar offense
These are the two men who left their
families and took two girls, whom
they seduced, to another state, there
by rendering themselves liable to the
federal white slave traffic law. Con-
sidering the magnitude of their Of
lenses, their punishment is light
Each of them can afford at that rate
to ruin three or four girls before age
and discretion overtakes him. Their
lawyers have taken appeals and they
may escape punishment entirely.
However, considering the number of
men who commit such offenses and
escape scot-free, Diggs and Cam
inetti are not so lucky as some.

HENRY Il. PLANT

Mr.. Plant did not pose as a phil
aAthropist. He was a shrewd bust
ness man who was out after the
stuff, and made no bones of saying
so. He was a full-blooded man, and
tried to have his share of the fun as
he went along. However, he was
also a man of enterprise and public
spirit. He gave those who came in
contact with his business operations
square deal, and if they didn't give
him square deal, it wasn't his fault
He was a man who played the game
of life according to the rules and
with the cards that were dealt him.
Starting out with a railroad which
was little more than a right of way
and two streaks of rust through a
country devastated by a great war,
Mr.. Plant built up a great system
one that is more responsible for the
development of South Georgia and
Florida as far south as Tampa than
any other agency. He had no super
fluffy of resources when he began his
work. He built each section of his
system mostly with the means earn
ed by those preceding it.
Although he did his full share in
building up this part of Florida, and
made. the way easier for those who
came after him, Mr.. Plants name has
been comparatively forgotten, while
those of men who really did less are
often mentioned with honor There
fore the Star is glad to see the fol-
lowing in the Tampa Times:
Plant Park
The great majority of the people
of Tampa will applaud the action of
the city council in bestowing upon
the beautiful park that he created
the name of Henry B. Plant. The
aiding in perpetuating locally the
name of the man who did so much
in making the name of Tampa known
where it had never been heard be-
fore.
1t has been too much the habit of
some of our people to decry the part
that Mr.. Plant bore in the building
of Tampa, and to say that he came
here solely for money and that hav-
ing helped him to get it our city
owes his memory no debt of graft
tude.
This view is entirely too narrow
and illiberal. Of course Mr.. Plants
| coming to Tampa with his railroad
system and the biggest link in his
chain of hotels was not an act of un-
adulterated philanthropy or unmix-
ed altruism. He expected to make
his great investments here the means
| of adding, no doubt, to his great for

The impeachment trial of Gov
ernor Sulzer begins at Albany today.
There is no doubt but that Sulzer
has been indiscreet. The trial will
tell whether or not he has been Grim
inal. The reason for the great sym
pathy evinced all over the United
States for him is that the American
people. understand that he is being
prosecuted by Tammany, and that he
would not be prosecuted by Tam
many for any rascality if he had
obeyed it's orders. Tammany rules
New York City, and the government
of New York City reeks with oppres-
sion and corruption. Tammany more
than halfway rules New York state,
and that great commonwealth, one
of the Oldest of American communi-
ties, is worse governed than any
western state that was a wilderness
forty years ago.

1t is said that one or more of the
saloons that must leave Dunnellon in
consequence of the recent election
will move to Belleview. 1t is proba-
BILE that othersewill scatter out thru
the county. Under the law, saloon
can be established in any wet pre-
cinct of a wet county, in an incor-
porated town, or outside of a town,
provided it is not within four miles
of a schoolhouse or church. There
are quite a number of places in the
county, on some of the most travelled
roads, where a saloon could find a
site four miles from not only a school
house or church, but from a private
residence. About the worst place in
the world to locate a saloon is on a
public highway, out in the country,
and out of the reach of police super
vision.
