A Question of the Hour.

whitehead significance. Ours is a great
country and our pending problems are ne

and it is really a wonder that we have
passed safely through 50 many crises. We
have done this, simply. because the great
HAAS Of our people have been honest and
have determined Ia do that which was right.
To the fact that the American nation has a
conscience may be ascribed its present con
dition Of safety and prosperity.
Through one of these crises We have just
nassed. with fewer cataStropheS and
less pecuniary loss than had been feared,
and the ripe, rich fruit of this latest period
of trial. now happily over, is the discovery
