same power has present control of
the fate of legitimate business as
well as of the speculative markets.
That power, through it's ability to
control the money volume, can rule
or ruin as it pleases.
In 1907 that power brought on a
panic as suddenly and as unexpect-
edly as if a bolt had fallen from a
clear sky. New York banks refused
to honor the drafts from their coun-
try correspondents and the whole
country was thrown into a turmoil.
Wall Street went wild. Money COM
manded almost any rate. The power,
represented by an international bank
ing institution held the street. in
suspense almost to the closing min
ute, then turned loose stream of
money it had obtained in ample time
to have business hours before.
The grip of that power has not les
sened since 1907.-Dearborn Inde-
pendent.

BUSTING THE BUCKET SHOPS.
Little Gamblers Swept Aside by the
Big Ones.

Newspapers and "stock exchanges
are carrying on bitter war against
the bucket shops and curb broker
ages in which the common people are
fleeced in stock speculation. Prac-
tically the only difference between a
stock exchange and a bucket shop is
in clientele, one being exclusive while
the other invites the hoi polloi. The
elements of the gambling are the
same. There is this, perhaps, that
may be said of the cheaper concern,
that because of the opportunity more
swindlers in proportion are bucket
shopping, but the sheep are shorn
in Wall Street by the same methods
in both places. 1t makes little differ
ence to an investor whether he is
"sold out" or his deposit is stolen.
The tiled floors of marble palaces in
the financial district have seen more
men end life with bullets than have
the less pretentious establishments
now under the ban.
Back of both stock exchange and
bucket shop is a greater power than
either, a power that holds the desti-
nies of both in a grasp so tight that
it is able to crush at any time. The

Several years ago when the ques-
ton of sewerage in Bamberg was
freely discussed, it was generally de-
cided that prices were too high to go
into such a project; that in a few
years prices Would he restored to
normal and then sewerage system
could be installed in the town. Prices
are down now, but we do not hear
anything about sewerage. Now there
is no money, and folks are not in a
mood to add to their taxes. The
moral of this matter is that the time
to install town improvements is
when they are needed. Conditions
are pretty nearly equal at all times;
when there! is plenty Of money, the
prices are high; when prices are low,
there is no money. Although, when
bond issue is used temporary tinan-
eial depression does not hinder pub
dc improvements. A lot of improve
ments could be had for bond issue
now.

NOTICE CONCERNING FLOWING
IN PUBLIC ROOADS.

Pursuant to recommendation of
the Bamberg County Grand Jury, the
landowners of the county cultivating
lands adjacent and adjoining public
roads are hereby urgently requested
not to plow into or allow their hands
to plow into the roads. Landowners
are requested to plant two or three
rows of crops adjacent to roads paral-
lei with the road, so that there may
be proper turning space without the
necessity of turning plows in the
roads. It is against the law to al
low plows to damage the roads,
and it is an unnecessary prac-
tice. The county spends large sums
of money in road building, and the
roads belong to the people. I have
no desire to prosecute anybody, but
I must insist that this practice be
stopped Immediately. The farmers
and tenants can cooperate in this re-
spect, and there should be no neces-
sity to bring action against anybody.
Full notice is being given before 1
take such action.

Supervisor.

The most striking thing at the
present time is that the farmers have
taken new heart. Other people will
take new courage in the same de-
gree that the farmer does. This is
an agricultural county and the atti-
tude Of the planter is very near the
attitude of all other people. Cotton
is gone, apparently, for some years
anyway. Our farmers are not lay
ing down on the job, but are up and
doing, finding new methods of max
ing the farm profitable. The old feel
ing of fear when mention was made
of going into new fields of endeavor
is fast being dissipated. The spirit
Of venture is taking grip on folks;
they are not afraid Of trying out new
crops. Some of them will prove high
ly profitable, others will probably be
d failure. It is Joy to note the pro-
ducts that are being shipped daily
from Bamberg and doubtless from
other railroad stations throughout
the county. Incidentally some good
money is being made from these ven
lures. While our old standby, cotton,
has gone to the discard for the time,
good prices are being had for other
farm products, and in this the plant
er is fortunate. Market conditions
are favorable and folks are getting
cheerful again.

"a 1t appears to be the policy
of the Southern Bell Telephone COM
pany never to grant an improvement
IN service without first entering Wig
orous protest. In fact, this appears
to be the policy of many Of our pub
5lic service corporations, and forms
one of the most cogent reasons for
sthe prevailing hostility on the part
of the patrons of the corporations.
I'm our limited knowledge of the af-
fairs OF railroads, telephone COM
panies, telegraph companies, and
such mammoth industries, we can
recall few, very few, instances where
improvements were installed volun-
tarily. 1t probably might appear
foolish for any one absolutely un-
acquainted with big business to sug-
gest any policy to people who handle
millions of dollars and serve mil
lions of people, and yet it
is the opinion Of the common con-
-sumer that perhaps ought to be
sought. The telephone company Sc
cured a raise in rates that was very
material, an increase that was held
to be not justified in the opinion Of
most people, and at time when
when folks had reason to expect a de-
crease if any change at all was made.
Bamberg patrons Of the company pc
titioned for an improved service, and
were answered by the company stat
ing that its income will not justify
the installation of better service.
From past experience, the people of
Bamberg do not know whether this
means there will be no improvement,
or whether the improvement can be
had if the fight is kept up. In the
meantime the telephone company is
fighting most vigorously the putting
into effect of the legislative act re-
storing the old telephone rates. In
some cities the telephone company is
rendering service that is worth the
money, notably in Columbia. II it
were the policy of the company to
give the people of Bamberg, for in
stance, service that is worth the price
charged, the company would accomp-
lish far more in stopping public hos
tility than by pursuing the policy of
fighting the people whenever the sub
