Actual values are not changed by the fluctuations of stocks. A railroad, for instance, is worth justl as much for all practical purposes, j when its stock has been ''beared" successfully as when the 'bulls' have thrown it up. It has the same material and the same capacity for earning money in the one case as in the other, and the country is just as rich when the "bears" have had their way as when the "bulls" have made a lucky raid. Utterly worthless stocks, repre senting no outlay and no real value, have been pushed far above par by "Wall street operators. "Was the country any iicher because worthless paper had been riven a fictitious temporary value? AVas the country any p.oorer when the bubble burst and the stocks went down till they ceased to be quoted? A large amount of money had changed hands, but their was no ''shrinkage of values1' in any sense of the term that implies actual loss cr depreciation of property. Stock gambling afiects no mate rial interest of the country unless it is carried so far as to seriously disturb the money market. In that case individuals may be compelled to part with property for less than its actual worth, but the propertv 'remains and the country is no poorer. "When stock gambling so disturbs businessas to suspend p:o ductive industry, then there occuis actual loss equal to the amount that might have been earned by the labor that has been stopped. Let us suppose that an enter prising business man has secured a patent which he ronsiders of great value. He organizes a stock company with a million dollars capital, putting in his pattent at half a million. The stock holders pay up in full and the company, with a cash capital of $500,000, commence operations. The stock remains at par for a time, then the patent is shown to be worthless and the stock falls to no value. Here is a shrinkage of values aggregating $1,000,000, but the only actual loss to the jmntryJs-the time wasted and such material as may Have been' -" consumed in demonstrating the worthlessncss of the patent, per haps two or three thousand dollars. "There has been a transfer of money, but no loss. Tiie idea represented by the inventor was not worth a cent when it was esti mated at half a million. "When a corner in wheat adds fifty or cight- millions to the quoted value of the wheat on hand, the country is not :i penny richer than it was before the rise happened. When the corner breaks and wheat drops, mak ing a shrinkage of perhaps 00, 000,000, there is no real los of property. Some gamblers may be hurt, but the wealth of the country has not been diminished. Ax uprising of considerable magnitude is threatened iti the s-tatc of Sonora, Mexico, among t the hitherto peaceful ttibe.s of the Vaquis and M:iyo Indiana. They number 15,000 fighting men ai.d constitute the bone and Mnew of the country. Posseting schools, . churches and other institutions . equal if not supeiior to those of j the Mexican people around them, I and having "the advantage of a ' well-drilled force for defense, the J situation is a grave one for thej government authorities, who up to) the latest ncounts .have only -Jj-OOi troops, all told, in the state. This force is concentrating at i er.no sillo and arms issued t volunteers during the Apache raid are being called in. The threatened revolt' w due to the repeated efforts of lhe Mexican government to wrest from the Indians their land, in direct violation of deeds of trust which date back under Sp.mish rule. Tin: Alta, Bulletin, and Call, come with column rules reversed, in mourning for the deaths of Fred. McCrellish, proprietor of the former, and J. "W. Simonton, one of the proprietors of the latter newspapers. Of the 350 officials in the terri tory of Utah ore-half ar dis qualified under the Edmunds act, yiitthey refuse to surrender their . ooeto the governor's appoint- To-uay'siElcctions. To-day the people of thirty' three states and of the territories hold elections which decide the political complexion of the nation for four years. A vast deal of excitement that is not only need less, but positively harmful, will be avoided when ail the states that have not already done so, shall so! amend the fundamental law a? to have their elections held in No vember. Then the general ver dict, uttered in all the states simnl- taneously. will be much nearer an ! honest, unbiased and unhoughtj expression the will of the people) than can possibly be made under! present conditions. i The greatest interest is centered in the result in Xew York and Pennsylvania. .- These states iave Garfield Gi votes in the last elec toral college, and it is considered almost certain that to-day they will wheel into the opposing ranks "by a large majorit.' IIij:i:i:ii. has made another blunder. 1 fe has sent a circular to the members of the national board of health, assessing each of them two per cent of the largest mum possible for any of them to draw within a year. Their pay i& $10 a day for each day t service, but! the board i hardlv more than an advisory commission and meetings arc seldom held. Hubbell assumed, however, that each commissioner was enough of a politician to thaw ten dollars for every working day in the year regardless of service, and so assessed each for 00. 1 le h:is heard from one of the board, who returned the circular with the indorsement that his service during the year had brought him i7 and that the demand for four-fifths of it would be as fruitless as it had been impudent. The directors of the American museum of natural history are making a collection oi woods, which is said to be without parai lei in the world. It consists thus far of 201 logs, each six feet in length, representing all'but twenty-six of the varieties of trees in digenous to this countrv. Mus. Laxgtuy. the famous Eny; lish bcaut-, who is now in New Yoik, is the daughter of an English clergyman who lives in Jersey. Iler husband is an Irish brewer, who has become bankrupt. The (talented lady will doubtless re trieve the fortunes of the family. Bex JjfTixn was neatly dt owned in Boston harbor last Saturday. He will be snowed under by the .Massachusetts ballots to-day.
