many rich ore bodies will be developed.
~ find that these counties named
above were never calculated by nature
to be used for extensive farming,
owing to the ruggedness of the terri
tory. Nature has first made them
rich in timber, and when the timber
has been removed there is nothing to
prove the future richness of the sever
al counties named, except for mining,
and from what l have seen and the
many specimens of mineral and clays
that l brought from there, to say
nothing of the many kinds of stone
that can be had, has proved to me
that Southeast Missouri will some day
prove to be another "Leadville."
Some of the many streams can be
harnessed and much horse power de.
veloped, and while land is cheap and
the opportunity of getting the right
of way is in its prime, I think that
your company can make no mistake
in building your road and developing
what now looks like barren waste"

From Thos. B. Polk.

Dear Editor-Some of my friends in
Missouri say they want to hear from
me through the REGISTER. Well, I
like this country all right and if the
people here were as hospitable and as
sociable as they are at home it would
be the finest place in the world to
live.
We haven't had any colds to speak
of this winter, but we have had some
of the coldest weather l ever expert
enced. On the Sth of December it was
from 36 to 40 degrees below zero.
That is some cold. I have seen one
real blizzard; lasted about eight hours
and showed and blowed SO you could
not see more than thirty yards away.
have been working for a man by
the name of Dowding ever since the
22d of September. I worked in the
spuds and beets just % days. Now I
am going to give you a few figures on
his crop. He has 160 acres of land;
he had two hired men all summer at
$50 per month each, one beet tender
who got $50 an acre for tending beets.
He had in 30 acres of spring wheat,
made 27 bushels per acre, and for
which he received so per bushel, or
$1620 for the crop; thirty acres of
nto xr,hi IA fn thn
which he sold at $40 ton, or total
of $4,000; thirty acres of spuds, or po-
tatoes, made 120 sacks to the acre. We
hauled about 1900 sacks right out of
the field at 80 per sack, which totaled
$1,000, and we put 13 sacks in the cell
lar, which he has been selling right
along for $3.50 sack; and now they
are $3.50 hundred which means 81 a
sack. He also sold car of hogs and
other things that I know nothing
about.
Inotice in the papers where you are
paying 25 cents pound for sugar and
can't get it at that. The Great Wes-
tern Sugar Company here gets 10 1-2
or lie pound for their sugar and the
merchants here sell it for $13 per 100.
Mr.. j. D. Martin bought three sacks
here and shipped it to Pennington,
Mo-, paying S3.7O a hundred for ex-
press and 10 cents war tax, making
the sugar cost $16S9 per hundred at
Pennington, so some one is making
big profit. Who is it? And in cal
loads it wonld be cheaper than the
price name.
Christmas was as fine q day as ev-
er saw. have been here almost four
teen months and there have been but
four days that haven't seen the sun.
We have had more snow already than
we had all last winter.
1t surely does cost to build here.
The cheapest lumber you can get is
$55 a thousand feet, up to $3.50.
Well, this is about all this time. I
wish was back in old Missouri for
about month. l would like to tell
, you how I felt when landed in Colo
RADIO. Will write you the story some
day.
We went to "a turkey supper, De-
cember 9th, given by the Eastern
Star. Had fine time and good mu-
sic.

ferred to retain my self-respect,
think my Judgment was correct,
as borne out by the subsequent
developments. I believe that the
public has had more than enough
of these so-called trials" which
are but star-chamber proceedings
where secret intrigues, ruthless
autocracy and strong arm
methods are INDUCED in with i'm
punity. Those who favor such a
system may we'll side with the
Exchange. Those who respect
justice and fair play will denounce
these practices.
That I have succeeded despite
the forces arrayed against me
appears now to have been trans
gression of the rules of the Ex-
change. While opinions on this
may differ, I think it will be gen.
orally admitted that I have been
really guilty of one unpardonable
offense:-I dared to lift my voice,
openly and unequivocally, against
system that is wrong and
against the vengeful clique which
masqueraded under it. If the
Board of Governors think that
they have placed mark upon me
by this despotic and pre-arranged
action of theirs, I would only say
that the mark, if there be any,
betrays it's origin.
For such of the injustice
worked upon me as is remediable
in the courts, I intend in due
season to seek appropriate re-
dress. But the blot upon the
dignity of the great institution of
the New York Stock Exchange.

am willing to stand or fall OH
the case as the public has it. The
gentlemen of the Board of Coy
ernors may think that they have
safely and securely delivered
blow without betraying their mo-
tives or their instigators. But I
believe that no one will be really
deceived by it. I believe that the
disgrace of the Stutz incident will
be placed just where it belongs.
The New York Stock Exchange
has shown itself a much smaller
institution than even it's enemies
imagined.

This latest move is fitting
capstone to the series of. official
and unofficial acts, each calcu-
lated to embarrass, to injure and
even to destroy me. 1t is the hand
of Esau, but the voice of Jacob.
No longer daring to take the
laboring oar, the gentlemen who
failed to batter down my stock
and who were frustrated in evad-
ing their obligations decided that
they might safely entrust the job
to their colleagues. But it is a
little late in the day for those who
have directed and controlled the
action of the committees and the
Board of Governors to hide their
heads in the sand. If the Gov
ernors had any real intention of
being fair instead of merely
appearing so, why did they not
answer single one of my forty
seven direct, clean-cut questions?
Why did they not grant me an
open trial with the benefit of my
own counsel, as they had theirs?
No single charge against me has
gone undenied.
If any statement made by me
was in fact inaccurate, why did
not the Exchange or the Board of
Governors deny it over their writ
ten signature, as I did? They
were willing to record their de-
sires, but they dared not make the
findings, which I challenged.
I do not intend to weary the
public with any further facts.
My answer of June 10th stands
uncontradicted because it is true.
This last attack upon me is only
what I foretold and what any one
with spark of intelligence could
have realized from the action of
the Exchange from the beginning.
I dare say they are proud of
their handiwork. I am surprised
that the Board of Governors did
not conclude their proceedings by
vote of confidence in their COM
mittees and resolution of thanks
to the Stutz "shorts' for bringing
the matter to their attention.

ton of April 9Th that I could not
retain both my membership and
my self-respect, and that as I was
obliged to lose one of them, I pre-
