She wears over her head an old rose

silver. She says among her people the
women never deviate from their native

clothes of American or English cut.

ALLAN RYAN'S STATEMENT
June "a, 1920

to lose one of them preferred to
retain my self-respect, think my
Judgment was correct, as borne
out by the subsequent develop
ments. 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-arn methods are in
dulged in with irnpunity. Those
who favor such system may well
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 a trans
erosion 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 objectionable
offence:-I dared to lift my voice,
openly and unequivocally, against
a system that is wrong and against
the vengeful clique which mas
queraded under it. If the Board
Of Governors think that they have
placed a mark upon me by this
despotic and pre-arranged action
of theirs, I would only say that the
mark, if there be any, betrays its
origin.
For such of the injustice worked
upon me as is remediable in the
courts, l intend in due season to
seek appropriate redress. But the
blot upon the dignity of the great
institution of the New York Stock
Exchange, beginning with their
first activity in the Stutz matter,
has grown to such proportions
that it is now indelible.
am willing to stand or fall on
the case as the public has it. The
gentlemen of the Board of Gov
errors may think that they have
safely and securely delivered
blow without betraying their mo-
tives or their instigators. But
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 much smaller
institution than even it's enemies
imagined.

With the opening of the road this summer leading
out of Valdez, roadhouse and miners pre-
pairing for year of activity properties in the
interior. For the past year all freghts have been
routed the Copper River and Northwestern,
making the cost prohibive by the time supplies
arrived at an interior point AS illustration Egan
Fetrokoy, who has placer claim between Yosts and
Parsons, last year took his outfit in the rail
road, thence the trail from Chitina From
Cordoya to Chitina the cost $36 ton. From
Chitina to Yoss Is cents pound; from Yosts his
claim about ten cents per pound. This made the
outfit cost nearly 27 cents per pound besides the
original cost, which very high, owing to war
conditions Mr.. Petrokov states that when the road
is opened he buy truck and take his outfit
in at the cost of few dollars ton. Last year it
cost him $4,000. Other miners make TIE claims
The Hurdle Creek Mining Co.. of this city, has had
a stamp mill and other machinery ready take
in over the trail the past year, but freghted part of
the machinery in and the break in the trail off
the balance, causing work stop until repairs
are made. f. Vaughn and other roadhouse men
state that they waiting for repairs take
in supplies for the summer. Last year they were
compelled to pack their outfits the break
trail to autos the other side. The completion of
the trail will again stimulate mining by local com
panies and will add thousands of dollars to local

THE MISUSE OF MONEY

Thomas V. Merle writes in part in Success: This

America has known! And the end is yet

mad debauch is its last legs.

in wildcat investments. Facts and figures prove
that the public like the idea of the high
cost of living that the spendthrt of today actually
Pr efers higher priced things.
The luxury tax has revealed the situation. In six
months have spent $67,212,677 for merchandise
subject to the United States penalty of 10 per cent.
This tax went into effect May /. 1913 and during
the first two months it imposed the government
collected nearly 81 200 600.
The luxury tax, for instance, is imposed mems
than SIS; socks costing than 81 a pair; stock
ings over 81 pair; carpets at more than IS yard;
and trunks in of $50. Government figures
estimate the total luxury tax collected during this
sx-months period amounted $4,000, 000, 600
about $25 each for every resident of the United
States
1t is estimated that, since the armstice, So SOC,

this expenditure doubled. In 1919 the theatres
