~~ BURNED FINGERS _ Many pu'sons will regard with indifference the recent con-- Effi"om which have seized the stock market sending prices W To them the market is a highly refined form of gambling and if fingers are burned in the process, the victims will be allowed to nurse their hurts without interference. * * _ _ Of course not all transactions on the exchange are «of,a gambling nature but many of them are. It is probably this factor which is more r'es})onsible than anything else for the breaks which have dissipated billions of paper profits. Finan-- cial writers seem to agree that the market was due for just 'such a drenching as has come to it, that prices were "bulled" far above justifiable levels and that necessarily there had to be _ We do not think there will be much rebellion in the repub-- Mican ranks this fall in spite of all the calamity howling that the _ persons opposed to Herbert Hoover are doing. Hoover and Senator Charles Curtis make a balanced pair, the former finding favor in the East and the latter in the Middle West. And when _one starts figuring up the probable votes next November, one m take into consideration the tendency of voters to stick to their party out of a spirit of loyalty, if nothing else. Like the King, the political leaders can do no wrong. Persons who "play" the market instead of using it for the sale and purchase of stocks must realize again the hazards of the game they play. It is a risky, pesky avocation and is sub-- ject to just the sort of flare--backs which are on the front pages of the newspapers these days. PAGE FOUR No person seems to think that the effect on the substantial business interests of the country will be serious. If that is the case, the stock market's contortions become mainly a matter of entertainment to the lambs that keep away from the shears.

It isn't so much a question of a candidate -- as of a platform. The Republican Progres-- sive wing is emphatically dissatisfied with what it' got at Kansas City. Senator George Norris of Nebras-- ka undoubtedly will be the malcon-- tents' choice for first place if an in-- dependent ticket is nominated. The most frequent suggestion for the vice presidency is a Democrat "of: the type of Representative Huddleston of Alabama"--a bid, of course, for southern support, and incidentally the first time I've heard the cotton state congressman's name mentioned in connection with a national ticket. But naturally this talk <will drop it the Democrats offer a prograim the progressives like the, looks of. Out here in the west I can begin to see why Senator Jim Reed has kept up his fight in the face of what looked in the east like ~an _over-- whelming trend in Al Smith's direc tion.

Even admitting that the Progres-- sives aren't sure quite where they're going, there is something inspiring in their attitude that they're on their way.

So far as live stock is. concerned markeUuIns costs, as shown by this survey, are not excessive.

This road is passable for its entire length, from Atlantic City, N. J.. to« its western end in Oakland, Cal. The federal government has contributed nearly $18,000,000 to the cost of building this road.
