INQUIRY ABOUT WESTERN PROS
PERITY,

The Congressional Committee which
in search Of material for an attack upon
the system OF national finance administer
ell by Secretary Sherman. did not find a
congcnial resting place i'll Chicago. h.
stead of the dissatisfaction and business
depression they had expected TO discover
in that city, they were confronted by
witnesses who testified that the effects of
the panic of 1913 have nearly vanished,
and that business men Of the West arc in
4 condition Of great horefulness. To the
inquiry of Mr.. Wright, Don't you
know that there are $4,000, 600 locked up
in the United States Trcasury?" Mr..
Stewart, a Chicago Wholesale grocer.
gave the crushing response: Il know
that if the gold was not locked up in the
Treasury to secure them. grccnbacks
wonld not now he floating around at par."
1t was not strange that the Committee
decided to move on, and, after q short rest
at Omaha, It viii appropriately fetch up
in Salt Lake City. 4 purpose to visit
san Francisco is announced, but we adj
wise these gentlemen to remain at Salt
Lake. 1t is fitting that they should
abide there. The salt of that famous
water will prove salubrious for them. and
among the adheIents of the Mormon faith
aud practice they can spend their days in
freedom from the chagrin they would feel
IN returning to their friends from the
fruitless and foolish enterprise upon
which they have set forth. Mr.. Stewart
overwhelming reply expresses the pre-
vailing sentiment of the Great West. The
country is beginning to prosper, thanks
to the success of resumption. and any
company of men who travel about to
create disturbance and incitc the pco-
pie to complaints against honesty and
prudence in national finances, are likely
to convince their countrymen, not them
selves, that they are Il pack OF fools
