had to stop eight times for tire

HAS THEIR CONFIDENCE.

Mr.. Morgan, who probably had
thought out what he would say but
who seemed to be as artless and
naive as child, would not admit
that he controlled the money mar
ket or that his directors on various
boards did anything except to note
what was going on in order to pro-
tect his interests. He thought that
no one could control the money of
the country, but he admitted that
he had the confidence of great cor
porations and that because of that
confidence they invited him handle
their financial affairs. Confidence, he
said, could be retained only by
good conduct. Once lost, he de-
clared, confidence could never be
regained. And that, according to
Mr.. Morgan, is practically all there
is to the Money Trust" But the
committee is going ahead with it's
investigation. 1t is very DESTROYS OF

Tuesday he introduced in the sen
ate bill to fix the compensation
of election judges and clerks at
$3.50 a day and of constables on
duty at polling places at $500. 1t
also limits the time that such Of
ficials may serve at any election to
two days. The compensation at
this time is $500 and the two-day
Limitation does not exist.
Speaking of this bill and of the
necessity for some such law because
of the many elections Senator Bald
ridge said that if such a law had
been on the statutes books in the
past year it would have saved Can
yon county alone, $4,000. On this
basis it is fair to assume that it
would have saved the state $25, 900.
To judge from expressions heard

PREDICT that bill along this line will

GROWTH OF WATER TRAFFIC.

One great steamship company, the
Cunard has expressed its intention
to the writer, through one OF lis o.

trade through the canal Perhaps
this decision is due in part to the at
titude OF the British Government t

American shipping from the PAYNE

to the fact that its ships are all
as busy now as they can be, and
that they need not look for more bu-
siness.
. On the other hand, most of the
big ocean carrying lines are max
ing preparations to extend their
business when the canal opens.
Their plans are being closely guard
ed, but the biggest Of them all, the

million tons afloat, is frankly plan
