SAVING FOOLISH INVESTORS.

Twenty-six states have the so-called "blue-
laws which protect investors against all sorts
of worthless securities by providing that certain
information respecting them must be filled with a
state official who passes upon them before they
can be disposed Of to the public.
Naturally, when Kansas passed it's first laws
to prevent promoters from selling chunks of moth
ing to credulous citizens the aforesaid promoters
saw the matter to the courts. When other states
followed it became Of great interest to know what
the United States Supreme Court would think
about their legality. The National Association
of Attorney Generals upheld the new a and the
recent decision of the Court declaring them con-
stitutional is a great victory for them and the
people.
So many fraudulent schemes have been foist-
ed upon the general public that advertisements
for the sale of legitimate stocks were looked at
askance in many sections, while the "blue sky"
laws do not guarantee all stocks that are offered
for sale they have a tendency to protect the pub
lie and the states that haven't enacted such laws
ought to hasten to do so.

A DOMESTIC "FRIGHTFULNEss" POLICY.

Every American newspaper is facing a seriou.
situation over the shortage of paper. Efforts tt
solve this problem have been unavailing thus far
and recently the president of the paper trust
announced his policy of "frightfulness." The
American Press tells it as follows:
American newspaper neutrality-suspicious.
of large and small publications in almost every
state in the Union-met in Chicago recently at
the invitation of print paper manufacturers to
discuss a paper famine which threatens the exist.
ence of the newspaper selling at present prices.
The conference began in the morning as a
pleasant get together" gathering and ended at
night with the two factions of a paper price war
farther than ever apart. The newspaper publish
ers, eager all day to effect any compromise by
which they could secure print paper at reason
able cost, left the meeting under an undisguised
threat of determination.
T. T. Dodge, president of the International
Paper company-"sometimes," as he himself said,
known as the paper trust" -sounded the ultima
tum of the manufacturers and paper mill owners.
After a long day Of persistent evasion of all peace
offers from the publishers he de6ed them ever to
attempt governmental intervention. Looking to-
ward two members of the Federal Trade Commits
sion, both active in the conference, he said:
II am unalterably opposed to government
domination of our mills. They are private prop
erty. Just the moment that you allow the gov
eminent to interfere with the industry we will dis
continue to manufacture news print paper alto
gether.
IL oppose any effort toward supervision of
our business by the Federal Trade Commission.
Such interference would mean that we submit to
the inspection of the commissioners and their
assistants, whom we would not even hire as FORE
men in our plants or bookkeepers in our Offices"
The ultimatum ended a session which grew
more and more unpleasant as the possibility of
any sort Of compromise or price agreement grew
more and more distant. The mill owners fatty
to meet the publishers in an agreement to
turn their differences over to government ex-
perts.

DEMOCRACY IS INQUIS1TIVE.

Democracy is naturally inquisitive and we live
in an age Of publicity. Rumors are always float
ing about and the most dangerous are those which
deal with enormous profits made by some local
man or set Of men by various devious and I'M
known routes. .+'.
There is a class of people in this town, as
in all other places, who are ready at all times to
believe all rumors of crooked business, or of dis
honest professionalism and it behooves all bust
ness and professional men of success to yield their
attitude of dignifed silence in regard to how they
have made their money.
Silence about such things has often been con-
strued into an effort to keep from the public some
dishonest act. Once this impression gets abroad
business and professional men must come out of
their old fashioned seclusion, vindicate their USE
fulness to society and show the service which
they render.
We mention this with no particular act or
party in mind, but in order that every business
and professional man who reads this article will
take the trouble necessary to explain to his GUS
toners or clients the exact workings of the deals
he is making. Then there will be no chance for
squealing.
