The Small Investor
And the Railroads

The receivership for the Frisco
railroad lines is sharp reminder
of the perils of the railroad share
market constantly being incurred
by small investors.
The railroads have been report
ing of late years a big increase
in number of shareholders. Maya
zines and newspapers devote much
space to answering questions re-
garding stock market propositions
from people of limited means,
many of whom have but the most
elementary idea of investments.
The railroad corporations have
viewed the small investor with
great favor. One sees why, from
the story told by a man who spent
the night at certain city in board
ing house near the railroad yards.
He remarked to his landlady that
a certain freight car must have
been delayed there a week as it
then had snow on it.
The landlady remarked with
some asperity that the snow came
the night before and that that rail
Grad handled its freight very
promptly.
Afterward it appeared that the
landlady owned two shares stock in
the corporation that owned that
freight car. These little lots of
stock create a widespread friendly
sentiment that is felt to be valu-
able. ... ...-..
The school teacher, the clergy
man, the small business man and
the widow have been frequent GUS
toners at the railroad bargain
counter during the past few years.
Many of their prizes are bitterly
repented of. The alluring stories
that the Eldorado Pacific is going
to buy up the Golconda Central
usually prove to have been circulat-
ed by people having G. c. to SELL
The prudent French, who recent
ly invested freely in Frisco can't
understand why surplus of ST.
195,907 was claimed for seven
months ending in January, while
the road goes to a receiver for in
ability to borrow sum less than
1 per cent of it's existing debts.
After some of these adventures
among the bulls and bears, the old
home savings bank looks good.

GREAT COMMERCIAL FRAUD.

The liquor traffic confesses itself a
commercial fraud when It comes to a
city with gold in its hand to buy the
privilege of carrying on trade. 1t is
here in violation of the well-known
law Of supply and demand. It is not
among us because there is a demand
for 1t, but because the supply excites
the demand. There is a demand, 1t is
true, but that demand is artificial. II
has been created by the supply, and
were better denied than supplied.
There are scores of boys In any re-
form school who would have sworn up
on entering that they could not live
without cigarettes. There was a de-
mand for cigarettes. But it was made
b. the supply and is better denied
than satisfied. The great power fight,
ing the church and the school and the
home is not so much the power OF
drink as it is the organized power Of
the supply-the distillers, the saloon
keepers and their political associates

PURPOSE OF CIVIL LAW.

PURPOSE or CIVIL LAW.
You can't leglslato morality into
people" How often We hear this
said Those who advance II as an
argument against the prohibition OF
the liquor trafio should remember
that civil laws are not enacted pri-
marily for the purpose OF making men
moral or righteous, but for the pro
lection OF society. The restrictive
idea Is secondary, merely incidental,
to the main idea of securing to all
citizens their lnalienable rights to life.
liberty and happiness.
We believe there IL a better way TO
govern even the beast than by the
rod and the lash, but no one will say
that In the tanning and the training OF
an animal restraint Of some sort Is not
necessary. Likewise. the employer
who is 80 inhuman, so british In his
instincts, as to sacrifice the happi-
ness and even the lives OF his en-
ployes TO his own Unsuitable greed
must be restrained The man who
preys upon his fellows by ensnaring
them In the meshes OF the drink de-
mon and who for personal gain would
drain the life-blood OF a nation, must
be denied the opportunity to thus
wreck the happiness Of homes and i'm.
pede the prosperity of the people.
The power to destroy must be taken
away, not as a punishment to the de-
stroyer, but as a protection to society.

CRY OF THE CHILDREN.

There is no more important phase
of the temperance question than that
which concerns itself with drink and
the child. 1t goes back and deals
with the ante-natal blight which is in
flicted by alcoholic parentage. 1t
traces the infantile mortality for
which our drink system is responsible
and follows that up with black cata-
logue Of evils in the way of accidents,
starvation, nakedness, disease ignor-
ance, mental weakness, criminality,
and cruelty that is appalling. AS We
follow up this line of investigation
we hear beating in upon us from all
sides the exceeding bitter cry of the
children. There is no other single fac
tor in our modern world which makes
such havoc of the nations wealth of
child life as this thrice accursed
drink system.-Everybody's Monthly

Neck Chateialne.

The neck chatelaine has almost put
the necklace out Of fashion this sum-
mer Partly because 1t is inexpensive,
but chiefly because it is a novelty that
has a distinct use. On to the neck
chatelaine, which is merely a yard
long strip of inch and a half wide
black and white striped ribbon, is
hung either a jeweled change purse
or a jeweled vanity mirror. Both are
of infnitesimal size, as small as ever
was locket, but the one holds enough
carefare for a trip downtown with
a glass of soda water or a frappe
thrown in. and at the back of the other
is tiny mirror large enough, how
ever, to reflect the tip of pretty nose
and say whether it needs busting
with the powder rag concealed in the
base of the receptacle.

GERMAN WOMEN ON DRINK.

German women are now preparing
the ground for future temperance leg
islatioA. A conference was recently
held in Berlin to consider how best to
bring up German children in total alb
stinence principles. The problem was
discussed from all points Of view by
weli-known men and women speak
ers, the work of other lands in enlight-
ening the public as to the dangers OF
alcohol being carefully considered and
compared.
