TYPES OF FIGHTERS.

Jerome X. jerome, the British author ana
journalist, argues that league of nations Will
be about as effective in doing away with war as
league OF dog fanciers who should undertake
ID do away with dog fights. Man has had to
fight so long and constantly to defend his rights
and preserve his life that he has come to like
fighting and will fight at the drop Of the hat for
patiotism, chivalry, honor, religion, self-lnter-
est, self-defense or any other thing or cause.
This rule does not apply to the exceptional
men and women of high development. They de-
precate war, contention, strife, and seek the
peaceful settlement of disputes They do not
see red'' quickly, revolt at cruelty, abomlnate
barbarity and sympathize SO keenly with sui
fering that they would not willingly infllct
pain on any living thing. Yet these people will
fight like lions for a noble cause that cannot
otherwise prevail. It was this element IN our
population who realized that, regrettabe as it
was and distasteful to Themselves America
must get into the struggle for civilization and
human freedom. The drive that the nation
fighting for conquest and another invaded and
fighting in self-defence were Fighting for the
same thing'' did not deceive them nor the flap
doodle about being ''too proud to fight" 1t
IS men of this type, fighting from a sense of
4 luty who are the most redoubtable and danger
JUS fighters that DULLES who fight for fighting's
rake can come against.

SPECULATION IN OIL.

Cedar Rapids Republican: The
present prices of oil will give a new
impetus to the oil stock boomers.
1t is anticipated that this year will see
more speculative propositions fioated
than ever before. The increases. in
prices have literally made millions of
men richer and this fact will be used
to excite and even to inf1ame those
who are ambitious to get their millions
made. The suckers will be born
more than one minute, perhaps mil
lions of them minute. For the wise
man these new conditions will mean
great caution in making his invest.
ments in such speculative undertake
ings. He will realize that the incen-
tive, to issue such stocks has. been
greatly increased. And at the same
time the propositions that are worth
while have not been increased Pro.
motors will be tempted to make trials
for oil while under ordinary circum.
stances they would refuse to operate
Nor is it true that such vast bona
fide fortunes have been made out of
this fluid material. There have been
rich strikes and there have been men
who have made vast fortunes by sell
ing lands to others or getting profits
out of promotions and experiments,
but for the man who depends on the
actual output of the wells, the money
is not SO rapidly or SO readily made
When the failures are balanced with
the successes and the costs are all
figured in the money made out of oil
is not SO extravagantly great as is
often represented. The man who is
wise will not buy every oil stock that
is offered him for he must know that
a large proportion of his money will
go into the pockets of the promoters
as their rake off or their payment for
the organization and selling end of
the game. The sinking of wells is
very expensive work and it is often
done without regard to business con.
servation. The promoters get rake
off on every step that is taken and
the stockholders who furnish the mon
ey pay the costs and if there happens
to be rich strike they get only a
small part of it for the promoters still
have the matter in their charge and
keeping and by various overhead and
other charges they can divert most Of
tie riches to their own pockets.
In other words, going into oil is
playing the other mans game, entire
ly so. You are permitted to sit in
the game OF oil poker. There is not
only kitty in the center into which
a part of all your possible winnings
must be dropped, but the cards are
apt to be stacked against you and the
players cheat you while you are look
ing them in the face. It is hazardous
business unless you know personally
with whom you are dealing, or rather
playing. Keep your eyes on your
own cards and do not take those same
eyes off the cards that are in the
hands of the other players at the
table.
