Who is Responsible?
Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Gambling is betting, and betting
is gambling, whether the stakes are
smell or large; and the lady in the
grand stand who "wagers" a pair of
gloves on a favorite horse is just as
much a gambler as the "sport" in the
pool-box who bids fifty for first
choice. It is precisely this equality
of moral responsibility between all
grades of gambling-i. e., betting
that has thrown a Cincinnati million
aire banker into jail and caused a
grocer's clerk of this city to be bound
over to the grand jury. The one ap
propriated millions of trust funds to
carry on a wheat deal, the other em
bezzled $60 to bet on the races. We
will have petty thieves, small em
bezzlers, and heavy defaulters as
long as the curse of betting affects
all classes all conditions, all ages
and both sexes. The mistress sets an
example to the maid, the master to
the servant, the employer to the em
ployee; and to a question of equity
the answer must be that the respon
sibilty for criminal . consequences
rests primarily a,nd chiefly upon the
money holders, the,large bettors.
The universality of betting is not
due to a craving for excitement, but
is rather the result of a mad desire
to get more money than can be
earned legitimately. It is an out
break of social disorder, a distemper
that is destroying all that is pure
and true and wholesome and honest
in the lives of men, the desire of
vulgar display and its pitiful imita
tion. It is eminently proper to send
to the penitentiary the young man
who steals his employer's money;
but, after all, what are the almost
irresistible influences thnt urge a
voung man to crime ? If he is a

THE CORNER IN COT'TON.
Sharing the Fate of Coffee and Prunes.
New York Times.
The corner in cotton appears to be
yielding to natural conditions that
are beyond the control of specula
tors. In this respeat it resembles
the Harper deal in wheat a'nd the
corners in coffee, prunes and Ohio
blackberries. But while the opera
tions of speculators in those products
caused very little injury either to the
consumer or to the nation's foreign
trade, this corner in cotton has af
fected our exports in a deplorable
manner. The wheat deal temporarily
closed several flour factories and
slightly reduced the quantity of flour
exported. It also appreciably cut
down our exports of wheat at a time
when the outward movement should
not have been restrained. But the
disastrous failure of the ring opened
the gates, and the large exports of
the last three or four weeks will go
far to make the shortage.
The effect of the cotton corner up
on o,ur foreign trade is a very clearly
shown by official reports. From the
monthly summaries o exports pub
ished by the treasury department we
take the following figures exhibiting
the value of the cotton exported in the
last three months as compared with
the value for the corresponding
months of 1886:
1886. 1887.

In Haste to be Rich.
St. Louis Advocate.
One of the great dangers of this
ountry at the present is the great
aste to be rich. A few men, by
ome means or other, have in the
ast few years become wealthy to an
xtent unprecedented in the history
f the country, and it has almost
razed thousands of people, who
ush forward in all manner of lucra
ive enterprises, as if they expected
o attain like ends, and that, too, in
very short time. So engrossed are
hey in pursuit of wealth that almost
verything else is forgotten or su
)ordinated to this ruling passion,
which, if it continues, will ultimately
murn out all the nobler and generous
eelings of our nature. Health, com
ort, and life itself, are sacrificed to
his passion, while those who are fore
nost in the race stimulate others by
heir example, and the feeling widens
.nd strengthens until it compels
nen, who otherwise would be calm
,nd moderate, to go far beyond all
noderate bounds. In the general
ush they must do so or he over
helmed. As a consequence, they
iave little time for mental improve
nent, spiritual culture or domestic or 1
ocial enjoyment. The average busi

with a furious mob at his heels.
About the same time England was
going through her South sea hubble
experience. A company was organ
ized to carry trade to the South sea. i
Shares rose from $500 to $5,000, and I
then wer t down to nothing, involving i
millions of people in ruin. r
This country was not destined to 1
escape. About 1826 it was whis. S
pered around that the culture of mul.
berry trees for the silk industry t
would make every man, woman and r
child rich. Doctors, lawyers, farm. f
ers, laborers and women at once s
dropped everything and began to c
raise mulberry trees. The trees
grew rapidly, and from Maine to t
Florida and the Atlantic to the Mis
sissippi there was a whirl of excite.
men.t. Mulberry cuttings advanced
in price from three dollars per hun- t
dred up to twenty-five, fifty. one hun- c
dred, two hundred, and finally five e
hundred dollars per hundred. We t
imported them from Maine. We set e
them out everywhere. Mulberry auc.
tions were held. One nurseryman t
sold $8,000 worth of cuttings in one
season. For fourteen years the c
speculation had a mad rush. Count- s
less fortunes were made and lost. i
But the sober second thought came a
at last. Men began to ask : "After p
all, where is the profit in this thing?" t
The mulberries tumbled, and the t
silk dealers found themselves with e
millions of mulberry cuttings that
bad dropped from five hundred dol- r
lars per hundred to one dollar.
Perhaps we are not likely to see t
any such speculations altogether as t
wild as these. But they are valuable
as warning examples, and the lessons
taught by them are worth bearing in
mind in these days of boom and fu
tures. The more tempting the
scheme, the mc,re danger there. is in c
it. These short cuts to wealth are g
