LA FOLLETTE COMPLIMENTS
DAVIES.
Tlui't one of the most important
pieces of work ever undertaken by
any br;uicli of the government is con
templated by Joseph E. Davics, feder
al commissioner of corporations, is
Riven as the belief of Senator La
Folcttc, contained in a signed editor
ial in La Folctc's Weekly. Senator
La Kolette declares that an investi
gation conducted by Mr. Davies will
result in relieving the people from any
"further tribute on fictitious wealth
and inflated values."
"If Commissioner Davies is em
powered to carry out the plan out
Jincd in his speech at Atlantic City
a few clays ago, the bureau of cor
porations will enter upon one of the
most important features of work ever
undertaken by any branch of our gov
ernment," says the senator. "Mr. Da
vics contemplates an investigation of
trusts and combinations which shall
determine first, whether the concen
tration of industry in the hands of a
few corporations has had economical
results, and second, whether the pub
lic lias been benefitted by the results.
"Since its creation eleven years
ago, this branch of the department of
commerce has made separate investi
gations of great value, including the
beef, tobacco, lumber, steel, Stand
ard Oil, water power, harvester and
other trusts. These Investigations
have furnished the public authorita
tive facts regarding each specific in
dustry, but tip to this time the gov
ernment ban not attended to correl
ate the facts in relation to the whole
big problem of industrial monopoly.
This, Commissioner Davics proposes
to do, and to extend the investigation
to cover the whole field of industrial
combination. If undertaken in a sci
entific spirit and carried forward with
the assistance of the nation's ablest
and best economists and investigators,
this work will he of immense value
to congress in dealing with a radical
and effective way with the next big
problem to be dealth with, before the
country can become industrially free.
"Such an investigation should de
termine the value of these great prop
erties. We should know the actual
amounts that have been invested, and
to what extent we suffer from extor
tionate prices because of ovcrcaptali
laliou. The people are willing to pay
a fair return on legitimate values., but
they should mi lunger be compelled
to pay tribute on fictitionus wealth
and inflated values. In outlining this
far-reaching work. Mr. Davies has
shown a far-reaching breadth of view
and a comprehension of the possibil
ities of his bureau that will receive
general public commendation."

VERY SLOW NOW
Only 1128 Have Thus Far Re
gistered for the Coming
City Election.
7000 ARE MEN AND THE
OTHER 428 ARE WOMEN
Fairer Sex Are Fewer Than at
First; Only 10 More Days
Left to Qualify.
Are you going to vote in the coming
city election?
If you are, then why don't you reg
ister. It is estimated that nearly 1000
more eligible voters of the city of
Albany have not thus far registered
and there is only about . 10 more days
before the books close. The election
is to be held on December 1 and the
books will close at 6 o'clock on No
vember 22.
That the women who have ' been
rather scarce in the registration boo'h
as compared to their activity when
the books first opened was the state
ment this morning by Mrs. Harrier
Van Tassel, one of the tegistraticn
clerks in City Recorder Vaa Tassel's
office.
"For awhile," said Mrs. Van Tas
sel, "the women gave the men a close
race in number of registrations but
now there are nearly twice as many
men as women. If the women don't
come in faster many of them wi:! not
have a chppce to vote."
At presiit there is a total -f D28
registered. Ot this .iuinb.-.r 700 arc
men and 28 are votticn.
City Recorder Van Tassel stated this
morning that there should be at least
2000 registered voters by the time, the
books close but that from the present
progress, the indications are for only
about 1500.
"It will either be that number." said
the recorder, "or there will be an awful
rush toward the end.
During the past few days the regis
tration clerks have hardly been busy
all of the time, so slow has the reg
istration progressed. The officials
wish to urge those who contemplate
registering to come as early ?.s pos
sible and avoid a probable rush to
wards the end. The books will close
at 6 o'clock sharp on the tvven:y-src-ond
and if there happens to be a srowd
waiting to be registered at the ex
piration of the time, tiiey will not be
sworn in.
