An Admirable Woman
From the Rocky Ford Tribune.

From the Rocky Ford Tribune.
In Otero county few miles west of
Rocky Ford is little farm house sur
rounded by orchards and fields. In
this cottage lives woman whose
heart Is filled to overlooking with love
for her sisters of the farm. This wo-
man Is simply one ordinary folk OF
her circle, and yet here dwells mind
far beyond the ordinary and great be-
yond conception In womanly ideals
and in insight In the needs OF the
farm woman of today.
1t is indeed a great honor to the
women OF Colorado that this woman
holds the position of president OF the
International Congress Of Farm Wo-
men. This organization is one that the

which were never before extended an
American unless accompanied with

Must Now Begin to
Study Nations Waste"

PHILADELPHIA. Jan. S1.-This
country will take its proper position
in international finance and a new era
of financial education is dawning as
result of the enactment of the Fed
eral reserve law, according to Alex
ander J. Hemphill, president of the
Guaranty Trust Company of New
York, at a banquet here.
Reserve Law Has Effect.
"The recent ena ctment of our Fed
eral reserve law Is a recognition of
the need for financial REFORM" said
Mr.. Hemphill. "While this law is not
entirely satisfactory, It marks a great
move forward.
1.-THE machinery has been devised
to make possible that this country
take its proper place in international
finance. and | think our bankers and
legislators can be relied upon to put
that machinery in shape to make it
run smoothly
Just as soon as we begin more
thoroughly TO understand interna-
tional relationships we will commence
to stuoy the vast increases in govern
mental expenditures which are now
| occasioning such alarm to taxpayers
and to bankers.
The increasing demands for capt.
tai for non producing purposes, for
ornaments and the like, will have to
be checked, and thus a potent infiu-
ence upon the worlds peace will be
exerted and bring about altruistic
results through the recognition of
economic financial principles"

INDIAN GIRL IN
SLIT SKIRT No
LONGER GREEN
Nez Perez Indian Maid Spurns
Aid Of Passenger Agents on
Shopping Tour.

OMAHA, Jan. 31.-Something of the
vast change that has taken place in
recent years in the condition of the
Western Indian can be noted in an
experience last week of a little Nez
Perez Indian girl and Louis Beindorff,
city passenger agent of the Union Pa
cafe Railroad at Omaha. For years
it has been the custom of the Union
Pacific to send its agents to the big
Union stations along its line to look
for those passengers who are unused
to travel. Last week Beindorff was
notified to go to the Union Station
in Omaha and see that Marie Lesieur,
a 17-year- old Nez Perez Indian from
Ross Fork, Idaho, made her change
of trains at this point.
When the train arrived Beindorff
was on hand. He looked for a girl
wrapped in blanket with feather
in her hair and two long braids. But
he didn't find one. When all the pas
sengerS had left the train he APP
pealed to the conductor.
Not an Indian aboard" answered
that official. There's a ticket to Ross
Fork, Idaho. 1t comes from the Pull
man."
Conductor Saw No "lnjuns."
The Pullman conductor was ap-
pealed to. mo Injuns," he said.
There was a girl with Ross Fork
ticket, though. She's in the depot
Come in and III show her to you"
Beindorff went with the Pullman
man. There she is" and he pointed
to black haired young woman who
stood at the ticket window.
Beg your pardon, miss, but I be-
lieve you are the young woman I am
looking for" said the railroader.
"Yes. I am snapped the young
Indian miss. land l hoped you would
not find me. I've been trying to dodge
you ever since l got off the train"
and Miss Lesieur stamped her foot.
I'm sorry" stammered the as
founded Beindorff. 'W-w-what's
the matter, m-m-may | ask?''
"Oh, you railroad men just bother
one to death. Every time the train
stops some of you come rushing in to
see If you can't do something for one.
Do l look as if I can not take care
of myself? Go away and let me
alone, won't you?"
On Shopping Tour.
Why" explained the surprised
man. "all railroads try to take care
of their passengers on long trips. l
lust wished To-
Nobody has to take care of me-"
responded the Indian maiden.
where's the business part of this
city and what car goes there? I'm
going up there to do some shopping
and [ want to go alone, too Don't
you dare follow me. I'm not going to
be kidnapped. and when l get ready
to come back to my train 1 can do Sc
without your help or that Of any
other person. Now go and let me
alone, please"
And she turned on the low heel OF
her Baby Doll shoes displaying as
she did so a slit in an up-to-date
dress, and made her way to the ele-
vator, while Beindorff and the other
railroaders stood around with mouths
agape with establishment.

APAC|TY
IN 50 DAYS FOR
STEEL MILLS
Orders for 100000 Tons Mean
Immediate Employment Of Fiji
teen Thousand Men.

PITTSBURG, Jan. S1.-Steel or
ders aggregating more than 100000
tons have been received by the mills
of the Pittsburg district within the
last few days.
Colonel H. P. Bope, vice president
of the Carnegie Steel Company, de-
clared to-day that in 80 days the
mills should be operating to full ca
pacity.
The principal concerns affected are
the Carnegie, Jones & Laughlin, Nc
Clintick Marshall, Ritter Conley, Clark
Car, Epping Carpenter Pump, Harbi-
son Walker Refractories. Spang Chal-
FAINT, West Penn Steel and National
Roll and Foundry companies.
1t is estimated that about $4,000
worlSrnen will be Immediately con-
cerned in the latest favorable turn ir
developments.
Big Demand Coming.
I'VE are entering upon one of the
biggest buying movements in the his
tory of steel making in the United
States and long spell of normal,
sound prosperity for the whole coun-
try" said Colonel Bope.
within so or 80 days the steel
mills of all the Pittsburg district will
be running almost and possibly quite
to their full capacity.
The psychological moment for the
complete resumption Of Gull activity
in all lines seems to have arrived.
Big orders are already given or in
contemplation in almost every branch
of the steel business"

safe deposit vault in your home town
The security is sold. In the mean
while between the selling date ana
your return to town where you de-
liver the stock to the broker or bank
er the b-oker borrows the stock from
another broker in order to make i'm
mediate delivery pursuant to the stock
exchange rules. These mutual bor-
rowings between members are large
I and continuous. And this only one
example to many of the necessity Of
reciprocal lending.
Finally, Mr. Owen would have all
marginal trades made at an arbitrary
margin of 20 per cent. Manifestly he
is not aware that the latitude is wide
and voluntary There are buyers
who give SO per cent margin in the
first instance-who will not take on
securities on a narrower scope. Others
again who begin with 7 per cent
deposit, increase this from time to
time. according to market exigencies
and frequently take up the stocks or
bonds bought, in the outset specu-
latively. There is no fixed status;
there can not be in the latitudinous
and multifarious condition of things
boursewise. A client may buy a
stock speculatively and end by ac-
curing it for investment purpose, or
vice versa. 1t all lies with circum-
stances or in the mutations of market
and business conditions.
Violates Privacy.
Furthermore, to make the details of
such transactions-and all transac-
tions-practically public property-an
open exhibition for anybody's inspec-
tion-is to violate business privacy.
Moreover, the proposition is not new.
1t has been tried-in Berlin-and
found so wanting that the German
Government precipitately abrogated
the law.
American stock exchanges needed
reformation-and they were reformed.
from within. There may still be room
for mprovements-bu not along the
| ignorant lines proposed by Mr.. Owen.
What is wanted chiefly is protection
against insecurities; against the ad-
mission to the exchanges of worth
less and semi worthless stocks and
bonds; against unworthy manage
ments of corporations; against ex-
cessive and unnecessary issues. And
these protective measures are incor-
porated in the antitrust bills sub
mitted last week.
The stock exchange has the most
delicate of all financial machinery.
Its necessary intricacies are finer and
far more numerous than in other de-
partments of finance. They can not
be grasped in a sweeping or off hand
way. Years of practical study In the
exchanges, purlieus are essential for
their comprehension. The tariff or a
currency bill is a prehensile subject
compared to bourse economy.
Senator Plainly incompetent.
Mr.. owen is obviously incompe-
tent to legislate on the matter. Wit
tingly or unwittingly he would abol-
ish the stock exchange, not know
ing perhaps that he might with as
calm impunity propose to do away
with the banks, for stock exchanges
are as essential to the country as the
banks.

SEuAT TOR OWENS PLAN
WOULORU|N WALL STREET.
Measure Would Make It Impossible to Operate
Stock Exchange With Postmaster-G General as
Supreme Judge Of Business Affairs.
By BoERsIANER.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-Senator Owens
bill to regulate stock exchanges is a
bill designed to destroy stock ex-
changes. Considered as an entirety,
the proposal reads as if Mr.. Owens
knowledge of stock exchanges was de-
rived exclusively in Oklahoma, where
there are no exchanges and where &C.
centric experiments have been made
with bank dposit guarantees and with
kerosene price regulations.
Paramount in Mr.. Owens measure
is the idea-intentional or inadver-
tent-to make the Postmaster Gen
eral an inquisitorial despot He NAV
pass upon the validity of all securi-
tie. listed; may say whether or no
this or that issue shall be put on the
roster. He may examine the books
of a bourse member al will. Most
preposterous of all, he is to Judge
whether the quotations recorded are
genuine or fictitious-is to decide
whether they are bona fide or manip-
ulated.
Demands Details.
Application for admission to the
trading list must be accompanied by
a detailed statement of contracts AMI
agreements covering the security; the
compensations of promoters and
bankers; the fees of attorneys-as if
such information would sound the st A.
bility of a bond or stock. Directors
and officers of a corporation must MOI
sell the securities of their corpora
ton other than the securities owned
by them personally. If a compa ny
have a clause in IT'S charter which
permits its officials to buy or sell its
securities for the account of the COM
pany-as has the Steel Corporation =
such a cong any is excluded. This
would preclude an organization from
retiring any part of its bonds or pre-
ferred stock.
No broker may hypothecate his GUS
toners securities. And he may not
lend such securities. These two in
hibitions would suffice to extinguish
stock exchanges. In order to make
a transaction lawful and therefore
legitimate, broker furnishes the diff
ference between the customers mar
gin deposit and the cost price of the
ranges from so to 80 per cent. Plain
ly the average member is not worth
from $10,000s000 to $4,000, 000-the
amounts necessary to carry stocks
and bonds in active times--so he
hypotEecates the securities with banks

money.
Lending Securities.
Yet more wildly absurd is the prop
osition regarding the lending Of a
clients securities. The custom is i'm
perative, hence reciprocal. Let US

In placing a bell in their new

got one that rings so loudly that 1t

the air is right, the sound from that
bell almost browns the tones of the

Wife Wanted Wine,

OAKLAND. Jan. 31.-Eeven hundred
gallons of wine and a promissory note

Monighetti, of Pleasanton, than deed
to her home and the custody Of her chill
dren. She went before Judge Brown
with an agreement between herself and
her husband. Martin Monighetti. whom
she had sued for divorce. that they
would be satisfied If their property was
divided as suggested.
After he had heard the testimony the
Judge declared he could not see why
the wife wanted the wine, and he
awarded it to the husband.
