the adyisability of prohibiting stock
speculation or at least so regulating
it as TO rob it of its effectiveness,
consideration of the benefits and evils
arising from speculation is timely.
More than Is per cent of the copper
producing industry of the United
States is the outgrowth of stock
speculation, and every mine has been
opened, developed and equipped by the
speculative or chance-taking element
Of human nature, which is as inher
ent as self preservation. The former
sometimes causes men TO gamble, and
the latter occasionally leads them to
kill When race suicide is carried
to its extreme limit, however, both
of these evils will be eliminated"
says George l.. Walker Of Boston in
the Deseret News.
Every person who buys a mining
stock hopes and expects to sell it
some time at higher price. In this
way the speculative instinct has fur
nished the money to employ and de-
yelop the human talent that has built
up in the United States the greatest
copper producing and refining indus
| try in the world Our mines are
! producing $200,0OO,0OO worth of cop
per a year. giving employment di-
rectly and indirectly to 100000 men
and creating and excess for exporta-
ton which adds many millions to our
national wealth every year.
Some people have lost money in
speculation. Hundreds of mining en-
terprises wisely planned and honestly
conducted have failed. Thousands of
wildcat ventures created by swindlers
have absorbed millions of the peo-
pies money. The government appar-
emily has discovered that by pro-
hibiting speculation and stopping all
copper mining the millions that are
lost through Improbable operations
! wildcatting and mining share specu-
lation can be saved.
Following out the same principle
the millions of dollars that are ex
pended yearly for fertilizers and for
fighting agricultural pests that de
stroy crops can be saved, if no crops
are raised. Stop sending ships to
sea and there will be no more ma
rine wrecks with consequent loss OF
life and property. Discontinue oper
ating railroads and there will be nc
more railroad abuses and no further
loss of life by train accidents. STOP
eating, wearing clothes and living in
houses, and abolish all expenditures
for Injuries and you will settle the
high cost of living and labor CUES
tions Government control and regu
lation has not gone quite so far as
this as yet; but governments com
mitted nearly all of the worst crimes
recorded in history.
THE growth of speculation must be
given credit for the development o
the worlds great and remarkably eff
fieient banking system. Banks coult
not loan money on one-fifth of th'
collateral they now accept, were i
not that spectators always stant
ready to purchase the collateral afte

: This is true not only of securities
but of merchandise and real estate
BY abolishing speculation of all kind

London, Oct. 24.-British and Ger
man newspaper today, as if by mutual
consent, characterize the fighting go
ing on between Lille and the Belgian
coast as the greatest struggle of the
war. German and British military ex-
perts say this is the critical conflict
and on its outcome doubtless depends
the future operations of the Germans
in France.
The French war office, in its usual
daily announcement, admits that the
Germans have gained successes north
of Dixmude and in the vicinity of La
Basse, but claim that the French have
made material progress east of Neu-
port. Whether this is to be taken to
mean the ebbing and flowing of the
battle line as has been occurring for
a week is not known, but it is believed
the French admission might mean that
the Germans have made considerable
advance in the region mentioned.
Right Wing Reinforced.
Reinforcements of 100000 more men
have been rushed to the German right
wing and it seems no exaggeration to
say that this is the supreme effort of
the Germans to break through the al.
lied line.
| The German right wing around Ver-
dun, according to the Cologne Ca
zette, is becoming closer daily, says
a Central News dispatch from Copen-
hagen. All French attacks have been
in vain.
1t Is being denied that the use Of
warships have proved such benefit
to the British in coast fighting, and
the Germans are reported as having
brought more and more aircraft, par
ticularly Zeppelins, into the fray.
/ Russians Hold Upper Hand.
| That the Russians hold the upper
hand in the Eastern arena is the gist
OF most of the news dispatches reach
ing London today. Accepting this as
: true, England thinks that putting the
: Germans on the defensive in this ter
, ritory will prevent her from sending
achievements to the greater strug-
gle in Belgium and France.

MAKING PREPARATIONS.

Laurel, Miss, Oct. 24.-The board of
election commissioners of Jones coun-
ty is making preparation to hold the
regular election November 8, although
nothing has yet been heard from the
supreme court of the state regarding
the injunction which now prohibits an
election on judges being held.
The commissioners, Chairman ]. G.
Clark, "A. B. Folkes and E. H. Wood
ham, met in Circuit Clerk Herrjngton's IS
office Tuesday to revise the poll books.
No registrations were made but sever
al names were erased where the voter
was found to have left the city Or died
Chairman Clarke was written to At
torney General Ross Collins regarding
the injunction case before the supreme
court but thus far nothing has been
heard from it.
The election commissioners feel
however, that the case is fully covered
by decision of the supreme court rem
dered several years ago to the effect
that an election cannot be enjoined
that the only recourse of litigants il
to afterwards enjoin the person who
is elected from holding office. A
least, they are going to proceed OF
this belief and take the risk of beins
cited for contempt of court.

war he had assured the United

might be the outcome of the war
Germany would respect the Mon
