A WORD OF CHEER.

In strong article in the current
North american ReuiesC Comptroller
Eckels makes some encouraging COM
ments and comparisons. We extract
a paragraph:
The present financial depression diff
fers materially from any that has
heretofore occurred in our history.
The strain has been of unprecedented
length and great severity, but there
has been nothing approaching pam
ic. such as characterized other years
under similar circumstances. More
significant is the fact that throughout
it all there has been manifest no I'M
usual excitement, despite the general
distrust i'm the stability of our money
ed institutions evidenced in every
portion of the country; the daily fail
ure of banks, national, state and pri-
yate: of great commercial enterprises,
trust companies and corporations and
manufacturing establishments. No
stronger proof than this could he had
of the vast resources of the country
and the available wealth of the peo-
pie. 1t demonstrates that no matter
how bad the outlook there can he no
general bankruptcy and distress as
that of 1887, 1857 and 1878. In all the
circumstances surrounding the pres
ent situation it is equally at variance
with other periods of liquidation. 1t
has developed at time when there is
an abundance of agricultural produce
and of manufacturing product on
every hand. Ordinary business in
merchandise lines is up to, and in
some trades above, the standard of
the same months in times of marked
prosperity, while the actual amount
of money in circulation per capita is
as great as that OF recent years. Not
less worthy of note is it that, in ma
jority of the failures that have occurred
in legitimate lines thus far, the assets
reported of the failed concerns have
been largely in excess of their liabili-
ties and of such a character as to
cause comment that institutions hold
ing them should have been forced to
SUSPEND.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

Congress convened Monday. The
Presidents message was read Tues
day. 1t is only two columns in length
and, as was generally expected, touch
es nothing but the money question.
1t attributes the panic solely to the
Sherman law and urges its immediate
and unconditional repeal. The
President does not suggest
any substitute or compromise
and makes it clear that in his
opinion this country should absolutely
abandon silver as money metal, ex-
cept perhaps for subsidiary coinage.
He mentions the tariff in one brief
paragraph only to say that "While
tariff reform has lost nothing of its inn
mediate and permanent Importance,
and must in the near future engage
the attention of Congress, it has SEEM
ed to me that the financial condition
of the country should at once and be-
fore all other subjects be considered
by your honorable body" That one
paragraph will do more harm though,
in our Judgment, than all the remain
der of the message will do good. We
believe that the Sherman law is i'm no
way, at most in a very little way, re-
sponsible for the prevailing stringen-
CIV, and therefore its repeal can do no
good. We believe that the prospect
ofsweeping tariff changes is the great
est, if not the only, factor in the pres
ent distress, and therefore the Presi-
dents declaration that these changes
must be made as soon as possible, can
but make bad matters worse. Wheth-
er these views, or the directly opposite
ones held by the President, are correct,
only time will tell. The President has
"the pulp and is in shape to have his
plans tried first. If they succeed we
shall be glad, for the return of pros
perity is more to be desired than tie
justification of anybody's opinion.
But if they fail We hope he will try
the other tack. In the mean time we
hope nobody will try to hold his breath
until the Presidents wishes are car
ried out. The Sherman law will not
be repealed in day.
