nil DUtuuco B38!"Kreed to reduce tho price of Its
i : products In obedience to that Inexor
able law of supply and demand. That
the cut la prices Is neither wldu nor
diM)p enough to satisfy many buyers
will probably lead to tho producers
outside of the trust making lower
prices than those agreed upon nnd
then the trust will have to ngreu to
still lower prices. No change was
made In the price of stool rails whlca
nre mora nearly monopolized thnn any
other stool product. It Ih evident that
If tho steel trust had n complete!
monopoly of steel products thoro
would havo been no reduction In
prices but the spirit of competition
not being wholly extinguished even
tho steel trust could not sutUclcntly
control tho steel industry to kcop
some of tho Independent companies
from cutting prices and therefore
the great trust has had to yield to
the Inevitable.
loos not this example plainly show
tho value of competition In IcecpInK
not only the steel trust but nil tha
trusts from plundering us more than
they have done. As the general trend
here Is for tho trusts to gather In
their smaller competitors nnd then
there would bo a complete monopoly.
unless tho tariff rates aro reduced
or abolished so as to bring In com
petition from abroad. As It Is now
under the present tariff tho ratos
are so high Hint but few manufac
tured articles can bo Imported to com-
pete with tho trucK Hovlslng tho
tariff by milling maximum rates and
making tho prcsont rates tho mini-
mum which Is said to bo tho ropuh-
llcnn plan of revision would only
maintain trust monopoly nnd add to
the present prices on products from
those countries with which no reci-
procity trinity existed.
Heforo you vote this fall look Into
both sides of this tariff Issue and then
decide whether tho Btand pat policy
or real tariff reform will host suit
your Intercuts.
A DULL STOCK MARKET.
Ardmore Oklahoma The A-l
City.
Ardmore Is tho largest city In
Oklahoma In a radius of 100 miles
with a population exceeding 12500
a death rate of 0.5 and situated at
an elevation varying from SOU In
tho henit of the city to 020 feet In
tho suburban district. Tho "My Is
supplied with pure nnd yholesome
w.iter from mi artificial Inko several
miles from the city which owns
1100 nc.es on which the lake la
situated. The supply is ample tho
pressure sulllclcnt for all emergen-
cies. There Is a completo sewerage
system and thu sanitary ordinances
nre rigidly enforced.
Ardmore Is the best paved city In
the southwest tho material used
being the natural rock asphalt mined
Just outside the city and of which
there aro suillclent quantities to
pave every metropolitan city In tho
country. Tho sldtrwnlks are wldo
and radiate to every part of the
city. Tho city council has adopted
a resolution to pavo every street
In tho city In which event 80 miles
of paving will bo Inld putting Ard-
moro easily In tho lead of cities
of her class In the country.
Ardmore tnkea tho greatest pride
In her educational Institutions nndls
steadily looking forward to additional
advantages. A modern brick build-
ing with every form of appliances
has been erected In each of tho
four wards and a high school build-
ing Is contemplated the coming year.
A campaign Is being made to get
the legislature to locate In Ardmore
one of the three normal schools to
be built. There Is a largo Catholic
Girls' school and a boys' school Is
also to ho erected thlB year. An
excellent business college affords
ample means to secure a commercial
education. There aro n number of
excellent Instrumental and voice
teachers for musical pupils.
Ardmoru Is a city of homos of
culture and refinement her people-
being made up of n good class from
all parts of tho country. Discrimina-
tion Is being used in Inviting people
to migrate to this section.
Ardmore and M&nnsvltle.
A baseball team ot this city played
two games with tho team or Manns-
vllle nt Mnnnsvlllo yesterdny. Tho
i locals lost the morning game by n
score of 7 to 3 and won tho after-
noon gnmo by tho scoro of 4 to 2.
Greenwood pitched for tho Ard-
moro team In tho afternoon and
struck out IS men whllo Sears tho
pitcher for the Mannsvlllo team fann-
ed G. Tho two teams will play In
; tills city within the next few days.
This week the Ardmorelto's Ilium-
clal New York letter tells of restricted
dealings In the stock nii'ket and
gives a general outline uf lii.anclnl
HiTalm In the great money market.
Tho death of former President
CUveland tho close proximity to ;!:
del ooratlc convention at Denver and
the excessive heat have all 'euile.i to
gri.itly restrict dealings 'n the gen
ei.il Mock mark i diirle ; the pit
week and on both the Vew v
Stock and Consolidated Stocc Ux
changes trnuinctlons havo fallen '
an unusually low ebb. Apatt from
thin however the market Iws tu t
been visibly affected by tni matters
referred to and after Bom 'i.rlie:
slight recessions during tho eirly
days prices bofore tho cloio move 1
up substantially so that the net re-
sult of tho week was reflect 'd In In-
significant changes In values on way
or the other.
The announcement that the plat-
form to bo adopted by the ilomor.-.UI :
party will be "conservative" served
In a great measure to allay apprehe.i
slon and partly compensated for the
failure of tho market to oxKrl3Tv
Hie expected "Taft boom." However
there were other nnd more potent fac
tors operntlug In the direction of
bringing nbout a higher level of se
surlty values chief among which was
the moro favorable crop outlook.
The present scant supply of stock
In tho market has prevented honrlsh
professional operators from taking ad
vantngo of tho prevailing dullness and
has In fact been mnlnly instrumen
tal In causing the advancing tendency
noted In tho closing days of tho week
llesldes the optimistic views relative
to present anil prosiectlvo financial
conditions expressed by Mr. .1. Pier
pout Morgan prior to his return to
Kuropo created a feeling of confidence
nnd under ordinary conditions would
undoubtedly haie led to a very de-
cided upwnrd movement In prices
Then again the progress made In re
organizing the Westlnghouse Klcctrle
- Manufacturing Company reports
of an Improvement In the steel trade
tho cession of gold exports to Europe
the continue! piling up of money in
the local Kinks the rather unexpected
declarat'on of the employment divi-
dends hy the American Iieomotlvo
Company the more active employ-
lient or railway freight cars through
out the country as well as of wag?
earners In several lines and evidences
of a ri lal In the milling Industry
have all ron'rilmte! to the more hope
ful feeling existing nt the present
writing.
The llrst of July Is nlways one ot
the most Important periods of tho
year In tho matter ot dividend nnd
interest payments by the railroad and
manutactiirlug industries ot tho coun-
try as well as by tho national gov-
renmeut. This year tho amount of
money to be thus disbursed falls con
siderably short of that for tho corres-
ponding period of last year; neverthe
less tho sum to be paid out In this
manner will bo enormous and very
naturally the securities market will
bo affected In greater or loss meas-
ure through the re-Investment of this
vast amount of funds. It would thus
appear that while political consider-
ations nre likely to contlnuo to re-
strict extensive operations In tho
stock market for tho tlnio being tho
prospects aro that as soon ns tho
democratic ticket has been named nnd
the platform of that party announced
there will bu at least a moderate re-
vival of activity lit the stock market
accompanied by a greater or less en-
hancement In values.
Too much stress cannot be laid up-
on the excellent crop prospects ns
after all the result of tho harvests
In this country Is tho fundamental
basis of our prosperity. Politics and
other matters may for a time retard
our progress but with good harvests
assured and with plenty of money In
circulation as is now tho case gener-
al business In the long run Is bound
to Improve. On this theory thero has
been moderato buying of stocks on
both tho New York Stock and Con-
solidated Stock Exchanges through-
out tho greater portion of tho past
week and brokers generally aro look
ing forward to a material Increaso In
this movement ns soon as the politi-
cal situation becomes clearer.
