The Recovery Will Be Rapid.

Henry Clews, the veteran banker,
has given his views regarding the flu.
ture OF business and finances. He
says:
Pessimists now take their cue
from the after effects of the panic of
1873, and, based upon the idea that
history usually repeats itself, expect
that the same experiences should now
be realized as those attending the 1873
panic. 1t is only necessary to review
the condition at both periods to show
that the position taken is not we'll
founded; for instance, at the cores.
ponding date after the '73 panic, the
surplus reserve of the New York
banks was about SIS, OOO,O 900, while
now it is $50, O0O,0 900. They also loose
sight of the fact that since 1873 there
has been an increase of government
circulating money of $4,000, 900.
There will soon be found q means OF
rapid recuperation, as it is to the bust
ness situation, what lubricating oil is
to machinery; besides which, the re-
cent panic found the business affairs
OF the country on more conservative
basis-nearer . cash basis-than in
'73, as it was the expansion of credit,
caused by excessive railroad building
at that time that really caused the
panic. 1t was railroad expansion
panic. Almost every banking firm
stood sponsor for the securities OF q
railroad newly built, or one under
construction, and had the bonds of the
various concerns under hypothecation.
It was the forced liquidation of these
obligations that sent most of the rail-
roads and their bankers into bank
ruptcy. The recent panic was en-
tirely free from that difficulty, conse-
quently the recuperation in this coun.
try after the panic should not take as
many months to accomplish, as it did
years after '73; nor will it, in my
opinion, after the tariff and govern

ton have been finally settled, which
cannot now be far off; at any rate, in
few weeks, if not days, we will know
enough about what to expect to be
able to discount the fnality.

As Anticipated.

AS was anticipated, the decision Of
the Supreme Court sustains Gov. Nc
Graw, in the removal of John Nc
Reavy from the Capitol Commission.
The decision was written by Judge
Scott; Dunbar, Hoyt and Anders con-
curing, and Stiles asserting solely on
the ground that the position of Com
missioner is not a constitutional office.
Notwithstanding the language of the
statute seems to justify this finding Of
the court, the principle involved is so
repugnant to the fundamental idea
that no man shall be summarily de-
prived of any privilege, without hear
ing in his own defense, that it does
not find much favor with those who
reach justice by a short cut, and indie
pendently of legal bubbles. The stat
ute provides that the Governor may
remove for misconduct or malfeasance
in Office, and the executive act de-
ciares the deposed officer guilty of one
or both these counts, without so much
as a bare statement of q single spec
ification to sustain it. Mr.. McReavy
is injured in proportion as uncertainty
may magnify the Nervousness of his
misconduct" or malfeasance" in
Office.
If this is lawful. and the Supreme
Court declares it is, the Legislature
has signally failed in protecting the
individual rights Of those who may &C.
cept Office under ali executive who
may choose to run things to suit him.
self. The American principle is to
abridge the prerogatives Of rulers, and
protect the rights of the citizen, but
the late Legislature does not seem to
have caught the faintest glimmer OF
such an idea.
The only recourse left for Mr.. Nc.
Reavy is to demand of Gov. McGraw a
statement of just what acts of his con-
stitute malfeasance" or miscOn.
duct" He may decline to give them,
but fair play is regarded as a jewel by
the people, and a failure to substanti.
ate the charge will stamp it at once as
frivolous and malicious.

Commendable.

II is SO seldom that We find the min.
lister Of one OF the Protestant churches
defending anything that savors OF Ro-
manism. that We gladly note an ex.
ception in the sermon OF Rev. Dr.
Hallock, of the First Congregational
church, at Tacoma, Sunday evening
The subject Of his discourse was
=" Good Citizenship" and taking his
text from Matthew xxi; 81; "Ren.
der unto Caesar the things that are
C"sar's and unto God the things that
are Gods" he reviewed the attitude OF
the A. =. A. towards the Catholic
church, and deprecated the fact that
such an organization should ensnare
some very good people under the mis-
taken idea that they were thus sub
serving the interests of patriotism.
Each member OF the order is required
to swear that he will never vote for a
Roman Catholic for any public Office,
nor ever employ member of that
church for any labor when a protes-
tant can be had. This he ailrms is in
conflict with the spirit o. provision
OF our National Constitution which
declares that No religious test shall
ever he required as qualification to
any Office Of public trust under the
United States"
To the suggestion that the Catholics
base their political action upon condi-
tons which favor their church, he de-
clares, Are We, who fought 300 years
for the privilege of worshipping God
according to the dictates of our own
conscience, and OF having our individ.
ual freedom in the civil and inalien-
able right of government to prescribe
and boycott a class of American citi-
zens who pay taxes and abide the
laws, because they worship God in a
prescribed form and use their legal
franchise in the interests OF their own
institutions? Do we not do the same?"
he inquiries; have we not fought for
the right to do the same?"
The policy of the A. P. A., if success
full, he affirmed would turn the wheels
of government back 800 years, intro.
duce an un-American, unconstitutional
and un-Christian element of :ntoler-
ance, and in essence adopts the very
methods of the foe we have so persist
emily condemned through the late
centuries.
The municipal election at Seattle
last week shows that the A. p. A. have
begun an aggressive warfare, and late
pulpit utterances in this city indicate
that the leaven OF discord is wide
spread.

Only Time Wanted,

The failure Of the Mason Mortgage
Co., of Tacoma, is one which will be
universally regretted by all who know
Allen c. Mason, who by industry and
enterprise has made such splendid
business record in our sister city.
The company has loaned over 81, 900, :
600, to carry business men through
the present depression, and if it is
driven to the wall, it is only through
having extended the helping hand to
others. Mr.. Mason, President of the
company, says that nobody will lose
anything through its failure, if time
is given to realize on securities; but il
mortgages are foreclosed now, when
there is practically no money in the
country for investment in real estate,
the result may be different. Frank
M. Hashberger, Secretary of the com.
pany, was last week appointed receiver.
