J The warnings embodied in the edl torlal reprinted elsewhere from the Philadelphia Times cannot be em phasized too sttnnRly and they need especially to be borne in mind by per sons of moderate means, who usually Mipply the raw material for spuculn tlve operations, it Is unfoi tunate when a rich man Invests la an enterprise that winds up in disaster; for while It may not deprive him of bread and butter It shakes his confidence in human na ture and subsequently operates to the disadvantage of meillorlous promoters. Hut when gnat speculations are so piojected that In their collapse the earnings and savings of men and wo rm n of moderate means are swept away ni Imperilled the havoc Is Irreparable nnd the men responsible are criminals of the meanest type. In Hie cut rent mine for Inflated capitalizations of combined ent rpr!es or "truts" It ap peals at this time that mainly the rich themselves are concerned, and being r- b they tan stand It however the Ep.-eiilatloii ends. This, however. Is a superlleial view. The thing to be fiauil Is that when the Inevitable puncturing of these ballooned specula tions comes, the rich victims will not be content to miffer quietly the Just penalty of their own unwise Judgment but by the numerous means at their command will try to piss the loss down nliins: the line, shifting It from shoulder to shoulder until finally It setllea upon the humble and mine or Icrs defense less toller for dally wages. The man who sells to another an ar tble by false lepiesentatlons. thus cheating him. Is a dlily knave, whether he be a peddler of pins or a multi millionaire engaged In the construction of gaseous corporations, nnd public opinion must lay upon each Its un qualified condemnation. Thnt attitude In public opinion which conrlders spec ulative manias only from the economic, without regard to the moral.' stand point Is rcsponslblo for much of the harm which speculation has wrought. For eo long as Napoleons of finance can thrlvt) at other people's e.ponHo by lying, cheating nnd perjury without losing social prestige or apparently fnlllng In the general estimation, that long will knavery'15 wits be kept keen for the "doing" of the unwary and that lontr will sullen discontent and class prejudlco prcmeato tho poor.

Roosevelt's Latest Fight. These, me the days of Investigations and, word comes, from Albany that an other one on n large scale has Just been projected, the objective point being Tammany police methods In New Yoik cltj. When Theodore P.oo.sevelt was i uniting against Van Wyck for gov ernor It was charged by the Republl i an leadet.s In New York nnd practic ally eoiroboratcd by tho actions and Informal admissions of the Tnmmany Ites that an enormous campaign fund for Van Wyck hnd been collected by assessment on protected vice In New York' eft). Knowledge of this came to Uoosevelt In such n way ris to leave no icasonable doubt and innsmuch as he threatened If elected to cany on a war against such practices his vresent move In seeming the appointment of a leg islative probing committee Is not le lallatory but lather ledempllvo in Ha iti ie. A number of things' have occurred slui" to Indicate that the Tammany scheme of government rests upon the essential principles of blackmail and highway lobbery. The attempt of Croker to bulldoze George Gould by threatening: to bottle up the elevated taihoad is n eonspirtious recent one; and If the boss of Tammany will not hesitate to claim feudal prerogatives over a ileh and now ei fill company like Gould's, what must his tyranny be over the thousands of keepeis of pool looms, gambling shops, houses of 111 icpute and other small fry lctlms of police extortion and olticinl -holding up? Pacts In detail bearing on this subject are said to be in possession of the In stigators of this newly-authorized In vestigation nnd with Itoosevelt to push the probe will sink deep. The fact that the governor Is dl leclly behind this Inquliy and that he has the implicit contldence of eveiy in telligent honest man In New Yoik city, as well as the personal respect of two tliluls of the Tammany Instruments of blackmail, many of whom would do for Itoosevelt out of friendship moie than they would do for Croker out of fear, adds lo the prospective Interest of this Inquliy. ltoosevelt's Identifi cation with the affair Is an assurance of thotoughness and It would be sur prising If the result should not be a large addition to the number of Goth am municipal statesmen In exile or In Jail. Nothing better iilustialos the popular progress than the American public's refusal to be reconciled to lottcr. army beef. Civic standards today are too high to admit lo forgiveness any ofilcer found guilty of profiting at the sol diers' expense. Senator Hoar's Mistake. The sincerity of Senator Hoar in ls attitude with respect to the Philippine problem cannot be doubted; everybody concedes It. Uqunlly sincere Is Senator Stewart In his advocacy of unlimited tiee sliver colii.lf. at the latlo of 16 ti 1. Hut neither of these senators though personally respected, represents on the subjects mentioned what may be called the common sense of the country. lioth have gone off on tangents and having done so are under the necessity of go ing to extiumes in the futile attempt to Justify their aberrations. J Senator Hoar's great pilevance Is! that we ale attempting to Impose a government upon the Filipinos without their consent. We did not ask tho con sent of the Indians when we enforced law and order among them: we did not asl the consent of the I 'tab Mor mons when we Informed them that cer tain customs of thelr'.s were objection able to the highest Interests of civiliza tion arrd notified them to stop; we did not asl- the consent of the s ceding slave-holders when we ttdd them they could not s"t up a government of their own founded i n the corner stone of human slnveiv. Senator Hoar's I'll grim ancestors had no bolter right to Sfltb in Massachusetts and implant tlu-re the gwms o' a civilisation since developed Into the Ameilcn we know, lighting and killing the natives as they went along, than the Amrican pil grims In th-1 Philippines today have to introduce Into those remoto Islands of the ma the rudiments of nwlern clvlll. zatlnn, using the rll!p and the club whore milder proeesss fall. Otis' men mo fighting the Filipinos ns the early Pilgrims fought the Narragansett In dians In scf defence. The fighting Is a part of the ploughing nnd har rowing which precedes tho gainer Ing of a precious harvest, and although rough work and seemingly thankless woik yet In the Providence of Clod as shown throughout history It Is woik which Invariably has to be done. Nothing substantial In human betterment Is achieved without sacrifice of time nnd toll and blood. The penalty of admin istrative talent la Increased responsibil ity. To the live nations destiny en trusts the hard work of brjaklng In the savage races Senator Hoar, we repeat. Is a sincere man, with a finely adjusted contclenco which he courageously obeys. His je sistutRe during wartime to his coun tiy's cause and hl.s gifts of aid to his country' enemies are not dictated by trcaoonnble Irteut but by an honest bo lief in tho righteousness of hlH posi tion. Yet now that wo nro in the Phil ippines for good or ill, now thnt the soil of thoso distant Islands has been consecrated by tho blood of American martyrs shed In the cause of humanity nnd civilization a price which In hon or binds us to the completion of our task hew much nobler 1101110" It be If Senator Hoar, Inntead of' spending hla time In futilo bewailing of a choice already ratified, should gracefully bow to the inevitable and dedicate his great talents la lnc purpose pi holding th country up to the level of Its own high intentions. Of all Hip periodicals which come to this nfPco we know of none saner, brav er or better than the Outlook, tho Knster number of which Is a model of well-directed enterprise. Tt docs not scorn posslblo for the Outlook to be Improved, P?rils Involved in Over-speculation, Prom the Philadelphia Times. ONK of the evils of the general prosperity that largely In creases all legitimate values, Is tho tide of reckless speculation thnt ever follows such financial condi tions, and at no time In all the history of the past was this evil more con spicuously presented than It Is today. Wc do not speak of substantial values Birch as certain interest and dividend paying1 bonds nnd stock. Most of them have not yet reached as high a point as they probably will reach be foie the close of the year. The pres ent value of money is little more than half w hat It was a. score of years ago, and certain sccuiitles which pay ! per cent, are now considered profitable In vestments for money. The reason why the best securities have not yet reached the highest point is In the fact that millions of capital are now devot eu wholly to speculation In securities which, as a tule, are without either piesent or prospective actual value. There are millions of money now be ing made out of what Is practically nothlng.The present rage Is for Indus trial corporations, and little more than a shoe-stilng Is needed to organize a company with a capital of millions and float it on the market. The shares are not bought because anybody supposes they are valuable, but because It Is believed that they will be forced by In terested speculators to largely Increas ed prices, and all expect to take their piollts and get out before tho crash comes. There are a score or more of Industrial companies with their shares now on tho market, and selling up in tho thousands of shares each day, which have hardly the semblance of a basis of substantial value, but the speculation-stricken multitude rushes for the shnres, hoping to mnke a pro fitable tin 11 and leave the crash to fall upon those who succeed them as share holders. o Any Industrial corporation that has not been organized on the sound basis of full paid-up stock, and that has not nn established business, exhibiting profits equal to a fair return on the capital Invested, should be caiefully avoided by nil who do not wish to lose their money. It Is possible for then to buy these woithless stocks and get out with a profit before the revulsion comes, hut all such revulsions comu as suddenly and unexpectedly as a thunder-clap from an unclouded sky, and when they come, the shares held bv the rash Investing soon become absj lutely valueless. o There aie a number of companies on the market today whose shares sell up to an aggregate of millions of capital which are not earning a dollar, au.l most of which will never earn profit. Now and then one may chance to suc ceed, but it Is reasonable to assume that there Is not one In n dozen ef these purely speculative industiial cor poiatlons that will not In the end coit the shareholders just about all the money they have Invested in it In point of fact they are not expected by the projectors to earn money or to pay dividends. They are oiganlzed to niakii hiillions out of nothing, exiiect ing that the high tide of speculation will enable them lo sell the shaies and to manipulate them on the market. Sooner or later, and soorr at the latest, some or the wildest of them will vanish like a pricked bubble, and that will start the whole school of shoe-string Industrial organizations on the down grade with a rapidity that must soon reach annihilation. o High as prices seem today, safe in vestments can be had which would pay the piesent full value of money, and we believe that they will Increase rap idly as soon as the feverish speculation that Is seeking to make millions out of nothing shau have run its course. A few of the substantial securities may now be commanding more than their actual value, but as a rule the sound est securities of the country are not ns high as they will be before the close of the year. There Is no craze that Is more unreasoning than the craze to make millions out of nothing. We nro now witnessing such a craze at the very zenith of Its career, and It Is only a question of n short time when the shoe-string Industrial will exist ntny as a nightmare in the memories of the unfoitunatos.
