their fight against an Irresponsible
autocracy for free government. A frail
prematurely old man, with whom I have
just had a long talk, has convinced me

for their convictions. Twenty fears he

What Western
Financiers Say of
HOME,

BONDS
"At the request of the Horn Telephone company of
Portland, we beg to say, regarding the bondt which ther
have issued on their plant in this city, that after t full
investigation of game, we have taken $50,000 in bond,
which hows better than words how we regard them,"
y Frank Watson, Trefident Merchant!' National Bank,
Portland, Oregon.
"I have followed cloiely the course of the market on
the securities of the Home Telephone companies of aonth
ern California, and they have invariably ahown a steady
increase in value. After careful consideration, we in
vested in the bonds, underwritten by the National Securi
ties company, of the Home Telephone companies building
In the Pacific northwest" M. P. Snyder, President Cali
fornia Savings Bank of Los Angeles.
"I have been familiar with the Independent Telephone
movement in this city and vicinity. The services rendered
by the Independent Telephone company have been so
much superior to what the public has been accustomed to
receive that the system and ita securities became and
have remained deservedly popular. I have handled both
the stocks and bonds of tne Home Telephone company
with great aatisfaction and profit" W. C Patterson,
Vice-President First National Bank of Los Angeles.
"I have invested considerable in both bonds and stocks
of the Home Telephone company of this city, Southern
California and also of Portland, Oregon, and I think they
are certainly a safe and excellent investment" Herman
W. Hetlman, President Merchants' National Bank, Los
Angeles.
"Our investments in Home Telephone securities have
proven remunerative and satisfactory. We consider them
among the most promising securities in public utilities."
O. F. Brant, Vice-President Title Insurance & Trust com
pany of Los Angeles.
"This bank haa purchased from time to time for clients
and for its own account bonds of the different Home Tele
phone companies of Southern California, and they have,
without exception, proven a profitable investment"
W. C Durgin, Cashier of Central Bank of Los Angeles.
It gives us pleasure to state that we think very well of
the bonds and stocks placed in this market by the various
Home Telephone companies. A number of our customers
and friends have invested in them to a considerable extent
and they all appear to be highly pleased with their invest
ments. The local company is well established and the
system is very popular with its subscribers." W. R.
Rogers, Cashier Merchants' National Bank, San Diego,

"Thus this hunger strike ended, but

of the end of the strike, and fasted on

of the suffering she grew insane.

Within the next two weeks the heary conduit work of the Independ
ent Telephone company will be completed and the company will hare
about 750,000 duct feet, or 122 miles of conduit ready for the cables. The
work of placing the cables in the conduits has already been begun. In in
stalling these conduit, it has been . necessary to remove about 500,000
cubic yards of earth. '
Of the 3,200 poles that are being set oy the company all but fifteen were
In place Thursday noon. The company now has 514 men on Its payroll on
outside construction, and has already expended $130,000 on labor, aside
from the work on its new buildings.
The two buildings will cost about $75,000 and are just about half com
pleted. The second floor of the main exchange and the first floor of the
branch exchange will b ready for the switchboard about September 10.
The contract for the installation of the switchboards limits the work to
sixty days.
A number of the large downtown buildings have been wired.Sttding I
the Brandeis block and Bee building. Much of this work is being fltSv J
nights and Sundays to avoid interference with business. One of the newS
features that is being introduced is the method of taking the cables to
the buildings.
The Independent company will not have a pole in the business district.
Instead of the unsightly "can-poles" from which wires are now distributed
In each block, the cables go right up the back of the business block in cable
rings and the wires are thence distributed.
While the conduit system hss been built for 30,000 phones, cables are
now being placed for 10,000.
A sample switchboard of the automatic system has been placed on
exhibition at the company's offices in the Conservative building, and is
attracting considerable attention as a great many people seem curious to
know what kind of machinery will put any one of 30,000 connections and
take It down again, without the intervention of human hand except as the
person st the phone may indicate with his finger on a dial. Omaha

As one man expressed It you have to
riiuw me nisiory or me world to be a
money changer. A peculiar part of the
business is the reshlpment of coins back
to the countries whence they came.
Often during the rush season one firm
sends back a million coins, while it is
estimated that in the rauna nf Ur
$10,000,000 in foreign money Is reshipped
to Europe and a million to the rest of
me woria.
Money changing is a business Just like
any other. They do not exchange
money. They buy it. When you go

THE DIGGING CUBE.
Kpadework Advocated vAS Panacea
for All ius.
Stephen Gwynn, M. P., claims to have
discovered an infallible recipe for
health, saye the London Mirror.
He calls . it fosso-therapeutlcs, but
this is merely his little Joke. He only
means digging, and he expounds his
theory in the current number of the
Oornalll Mega sine. ,
Taking as his text an alleged dictum
of President Roosevelt "Sweat and be
saved," he declares that If perspiration
is the acme of physical culture an
analysis of the means by which it may

Among us this result "can only be

generally disguised as a game."

practice of a theorist he Knew who

The objection to salvation by games
is that they cost too much In time and
money, rencmg and golf are Instances:

Mr. Gwynn had rather break stones
than beat the air with hniw tumH-
irons or iigm ones.
We must rule out running, because
a man Who made a hnhft nt Fiinn(n
half a London ' mils a day would ho
counted a lunatic "for be could not

But If you have only a plot of ground

Those who reject fosso-therapeutlcs
mignt try wood-cnopping. Mr. Gwynn
has visions of lean, athletic men In a
warm glow or health bringing home
nea: ounaies or logs in hansoms.
But Mr. Gwynn's pet Idea Is digging,
which, he observes, has also an educa
tional value. No one after two hours'
spade work will be quite so pat with
denunciations of the "idle working man''
who thinks half a crown little enough
for eight hours' digging.
He stigmatizes as blasphemous the
idea that British devotion to athletic
rites generates a kind of "morbid crav
ing to perspire." Man. he avers., haa

tion that he will perspire dally. If he
