All Show Good Yield

Question: would be pleased to have your
opinion on tho following stocks: Goodrich
%. F. common 6 per cent; Philadelphia
Company per cent Pacific Gas and Elec-
trio common per cent. Which of above do
you think the best inves tment m C. D.
Answer-At present prices these
stocks show a good yield. but they are
not, in our opinion, in the investment
class, since earnings are liable to vary
from one period to another and divi-
dends might be changed accordingly.
1t is this way with common stocks in
general, and for that reason we do not
recommend them for investment pur-
poses. In the case Of high grade bonds
or preferred stocks the margin of
earnings over interest or dividend re-
quirements is usually so large that the
income from such issues is not dis
turbed by slump, nor, for that mat
ter, an increase in a company's net
profits For example, the United States
Steel Corporation has always paid 7
per cent on the preferred stock despite
fluctuations in the earnings of the
company, but the dividends on the COM
mon stock have varied in marked de-
gree from time to time. Each of the
three companies whose stocks you men
ton appear to be doing we'll at pres
ent. The Philadelphia Company is now
an oil and natural gas producer. That
in itself renders the common stock the
more speculative. Of the three we
should say that Pacific Gas and Elec-
trio should come first, with Goodrich
next and Philadelphia Company last.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, oct. s.-Safely encamped upon their own reservation the Cleveland Indians, American league pennant winners, will renew their bat tie for world series baseball honors to-
 morrow. The Brooklyn Nationals, con-
 querors of the Speaker tribe in two out of three of the eastern games, are likely to find their rivals a far different com bInation from that which fell twice be- fore the attacks of the Robins at Eb- betts field. Cleveland fairly radiates confidence tonight and the Indians can not fail to be inspired to greater base ball play by the calm assurance and backing which refuses to concede fur ther defeat for the home team. Every atom of world series atmosphere Sd utterly lacking during the first three contests in Brooklyn has reappeared

MARSHALL AGAINST
 PARTISAN VICTORY

ST PAUL. Oct. S.-Vice- President Marshall. speaking today before the state Democratic executive committee, said he was most interested in seeing that the nation functioned as a true democracy"
 "I am vitally interested in the sue cess of the Democratic party" he said, but I want most to see not a parti- san spirit or victory. but a real search ing through the hearts and conscious ness of the American people that the nation may function as a true de mOCracy.
 "I have been in Washington too long to have any faith in mere legislative enactment. The responsibility of the nation does not rest upon the shoulders of the president. congress or the su preme court, but on the shoulders of every man and woman in the United States today

COMMISSION ORDERS RAILROADS ID MOVE COAL SUPPLY FIRST
TRepubliean A. P. Leased WlreI

WASHINGTON, oct. S-Action to satisfy demands for domestic coal in various states was taken tonight by the interstate commerce commission in an order requiring all railroads east of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico to furnish coal cars to mines in preference to any other use.
 Former orders of this character ap- piled only to east of the Mississippi river. The present order. the commits sion said, would be run until further notice, but would be relaxed as soon as the situation warranted.
 The commission also ordered all the outstanding permits for the use of coal cars for other freight cancelled, but announced that arrangements to con- tinue the movement of certain essen : tials such as sugar beets to factory would be made.
 Working in conjunction with coal operators and railroads a program has been formulated the committee said. which is expected substantially to meet domestic coal needs. It is planned to transport approximately 2,100 cars daily for this purpose to Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, eastern Kentucky, eastern Tennessee, western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Attention is also be- ing given to the needs of domestic consumers in other states. the com mission added.
 As public utilities and institutions have accumulated some stocks of coal under the commissions priority order, that order has been superseded by a new regulation which the com mission announced will care for spe- cial cases of real emergency. After oct. 14 preferential car supply for pub- lie institutions will be afforded only upon approval of the commission.
 Despite an increase in coal produc- tion which up to Sept. 25 exceeded that of last year by 51,000,000 tons, the commission said there has not been sufficient production of the sizes of coal for domestic purposes to rat fly the present demands Complaints have been received from Indiana, Ohio
 Michigan. Oklahoma, Texas and other
 western states, the commission said and added:
 The increased production has been consumed in a barge part by indus tries, by railroad and other public utilities Tn the northwest ana III NeN England and by exportation. It is imperative that the producton of coa
 be even further increased. To accom- plish this it will be necessary to an nounce the car supply for coal. Shortage of anthracite coal exists
 in some New England states, the com
 mission said, due largely to embargoes placed by certain New England rail-
 roads. These embargoes have nof been madified, the commission de- clared. and it is expected that the raj movement of anthracite to New Eng | land will proceed unhampered. l The commissions action was taker after conferences here between oper- ators and railroad executives as tC | the needs of cities in Ohio. Indiana and Michigan Appeals also were made tC ! President Wilson from middle west | ern cities and referred to the com mission.

 NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. B. Several hundred Louisiana planters and business men today endorsed a plan of Barry Q. Wilson, state com missioner of agriculture and imni- grafton, providing for importation of Mexican Iaborers for cane, rice, sugar and cotton fields. The com missioner has petitioned the fed eraI immigration bureau for per- mission to bring in Mexican labor on conditions similar to those in- posed for certain border states. Louisiana is short 5000 workers for planting and 16,ooo for harvesting, it was said, due to the exodus of country negroes to northern and southern cities.

 Hotels are swamped by the rush of fans from other cities and ticket spec ulators take their lives in their hands every time they show the corner of a seat coupon peeping from their pocket.

 Much is expected to depend upon the manner in which the Brooklyn players react to the real world series roofing which they are sure to encounter at the coming games.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Oct. s.-A day sr militant campaigning against the Paris league of nations was closed by Senator Harding tonight with a speech in tho Kansas City convention hall re- plying directly to the appeal for the league support recently addressed to voters by President Wilson
 Answering the presidents declara- ton that the league covenant would not take from congress the power to declare war. the Republican nominee pronounced the obligations of article x so clear and unmistakable that con- gross would be compelled to fulfin them or bring dishonor on the nation
 This obligation is absolute and un- qualified" said Mir Harding. "When ever certain specified circumstances arose, no matter how much we might regret it. we would have 10 keep our promise or sneak out of it. Let no one he deceived; the choice would be be- tween two things war or diShonor."

A, E, Bent was here from Excelsior

Moral of The Kept Press STUFF

At the Farmer-Labor congress in

tisan League from North Dakota ad-
vocated cooperative newspapers, dali
lies and weeklies run by the farmers
organizations.
He charged that the press was
crammed with distorted news and pro
sitituted and debased in the interest
of capitalism, and that the League
must have its own newspapers.
In North Dakota he claims they
have 53 weekly and two daily papers
devoted to Partisan League in
terests that get all the public print
ing and advertising and no other pa
pers can live.
