A CAUTION TO THE SMALL INVESTOR. The collapse of several important railroad systems in the United Sutes should lie a lesson to people with small fortunes to invest' There is many a case to-day where the only security of a little Lome has been the regular dividend turning up every three months. When that cheerful messenger is turned into itsomiuous opposite—an assessment on stock—the person who suffers learns a life-ion^ lesson. But many others of the same type of people keep on patting money into equally hazardous enterprises. Like the people who arc called “ land poor," their property may be so blanketed by mortgages and debts that a lot of money must be collected and laid out if the property is ever to be put on a paying basis. When a corporation is distributing securities over a wide area to the general public, it would promote sound f ranee and confidence in the company if it would issue bonds and stock in somewhere nearly equal proportions. Something in the neighborhood of-a half of the property ought to be represented by bonds which the stockholders agree to pay before receiving anything for their property. Then the rest cf the capitalization can be issued in stock, which may be taken up properly only by people of some wealth experience in finance, and who can afford to lose if the property goes

wrong.

There is always a tendency to issue too large a part of the capitalization in the form of bond^. Realizing that the public regards bonds as safer than stock, many companies get around this difficulty by isauing the great bulk of their capital in the form of bonds, and with only a small quantity of stock. Jfa* canuot make a security safe merely by calling it a bond. ILOUS investor should carefully inquire whether the proportion of bonds to the value of the rcmaiuiug property is abnormal and top-heavy.

THE POWER OF COLD FACTS. A remarkable instance of the power of the newspaper press has just been given in England. A complete re-adjustment of the Cabinet governing that country has just been forced, ami it is said to have been due to a dispatch from a correspondent of the Ixmdon “ Times.” This dispatch dwelt on the fiict that tbcanny was being supplied with too much sbarpnel and too few high explosive shells. If the dow nfall of the English Cabinet is thus truly explained, it is an instance of the power of careful ami accurate statements of fact, both in .newspaper work and in political caiii|>aiguing. Their arc too many news]<aj>cr men in this country who aic mere armchair critics. They can write brilliant and slashing articles, but they lack a foundation of solid investigation. Tbe political stump is full of off-liaud statesmen, who tan get you up a slam-whanging speech in half-au-hour. It exposes 1 he absurdity and futility of opponents and is clever, witty and sets the galleries to cheering. Rut when the thoughtful citizen gets home he asks himself,'What more do I know about my government ? To which he must answer, Nothing Probably one reason why political rallies aie not well attended is that there is too much arm swinging and too little real

v-information.

American newspapers are all the time presenting can-fullv me- I,el “ w * r ''* a

pared statements of fact, that are just as influential in a mw Paren0 ‘' ° ,iw limited field as has been the dispatch that is said to have broken the J V * ul ‘ penl Krid * y at s< ‘“ English Cabinet. Hut the national temperament intrfpoaea ob- Jo '* i-ph Collins, of Palt-rmo.U board-
