This Summer.

Forecaster Dunn, of New York, pre-
diets a very hot summer "as a natural
sequence of the cold and wet spring"
Whether such sequence would be nat
ural, however, involves a mooted quest
ion. 1t will be remembered that the
New York Herald published forecast
of the season recently, based upon the
meteorological record of the summer OF
1888, when the sunspots were also
dominant, the gist of which was that
with the exception of June June was
exceptionally wet in the Missouri and
Mississippi Valleys), the season was
generally deficient in rainfall through
out the country" From this it would
appear that Mr.. Dunn and the Herald
starting out from different promises
have arrived at the conclusion that the
summer will be dry. But they differ
radically as to the temperature, the
Herald suggesting an abnormally COO
summer, while Mr.. Dunn predicts that
the mercury will ascend to inOrdinAte
heights. 1t will take a few months to
determine which has the better fore
sight,

Night on the Verandah.

Here in the deep, June dark,
Laden with OdOrs of the rose excessive,
Where not q star ray strikes the oaks to mark
Their glOOms impressive.
1 tilt my rustic chair
The smoke from my Havana upward wreath
And DER the rolling of the world hear
The great Night breathingl
That Night that has no art
To hide her grief-with dim-draped arms eX-
tended,
She waits TO welcome to her widowed heart
The moonrise splendid.
And yet so still in all,
That if q birds nest slipped its airy tether,
There would be sound and feeling in the fall
of one light feather
The rills that brawled all day
Now with the tumbled pebbles made no
wrangle;
The wind seems weary and has lost its way
In vines a'tangle.
Night and the South and Junei
Silence-and yet the sound of many voices
And now, dashed down the darkness tune on
tunei
And Melody rejoice
Clear through the awakened Night
The music rushes-all the joy bells ringing,
And every leaf is trembling with delight,
Born of that singing
Night and the South and June
The wind awakes, the river CLEANS and
splashes;
Up from the black hill climbs the brimming
moon,
And-my cigars in ashes

The great variety ofroutes suggested
and the exhaustive schedules of rates,
the graphic descriptions of about four
hundred places, the explanatory maps
and the illustrations, make the volume
exceedingly valuable and almost indis-
pensable to those contemplating sum-
mer touring.

THE PANIC OF 1897.

referring at that time especially to
those Of 1859, 1873 and 1893. Re-
speCtlng their causes we quoted from
General Logan and others who re-
garded them as natural results Of
money fsmines. This is not strictly
true in the sense which their OBJ
servstiOns would imply. While q
m onsy famine is an essential oondi-
ton which renders a financial panic
possible, it is not true that il ls the
melting cause. While we had in
tended this week to speak more def
initely in regard to the manner in
which psniCs in general are created,
as well as the purpose Of them, the
Sunday sermon Of the Capital Of
July / leads us 10 consider more
especially, at this time, the one
which occurred in 1887. The Cap
ital IN the course Of a long sCreed
upon the virtues Of q bank cur
rency in general, and of that
Of the old United States bank impair
tlcular, says:
From 1917 TO che time when Andrew
Jackson began his surprising attack on the
bank, IL was an extraordinary success, and
not dollar OF United States notes was
issued. When il began its work the cur
EenCy was in @ wrstChed condition and
every state bank in the country except in
New England had failed and could not re-
deem its notes. But in 1880. 30 we'll had
the bank done its work, chat the finance
committee Of the senate declared that che
currency Of the country was more sound and
uniform than that possessed By any other
country" Owing 10 the efforts of jackson
the bank went out Of existence in 1885.
The next year the worst panic in the cOun-
try's history occurred, and all the banks Of
issue in the country suspended.
We have no apology to offer for
state banks or any other banks of
issue. So long as the constitutional
prerogative Of congress TO coin money
Is delegated to individuals or COrpO-
rations, SO long may the people ex-
pect to be robbed by those to whom
these special privileges are granted;
and this is all we have to say upon
that subject.
It is too late now for anybody ex-
Cept bloCkhead or a hirellng of
monopoly to undertake to defend the
United States bank or attempt to @
feet discredlt upon General Jackson
for It's extinction. That battle was
fought and won years ago. Then as
now plutOcracy and a servile press
were on the side Of the bank and ha d
their tools in congress and scattered
throughout the country, while the
people were on the side Of Jackson.
The contest was Waged by all the
unsCrupulous methods on the part Of
the bank and It's allies that have ever
characterized the arrogance Of the
money power. General jackson was
victorious and his course was vindi-
Gated by the people at the subse-
quent election. The verdict in that
case has been rendered and stands
recorded in the annals Of our coun.

senators, and representatives in con
gress, and judges upon the bench. 1t
controlled elections and dictated
Legislation and court decisions. II
usurped the functions Of all depart
ments Of the government Instead
Of a titled sristoCrsCy, as in the Old
World, the bank and it's allies had es-
tsblished monied sristocraCy more
arrogant and cruel and far more dan
gerous to human liberty than any
titled aristoCracy in the worlds his
tory. General Jackson ,.Iw all this
and had the courage, the honesty, the
tact and the persistence and firmness
to attack and destroy this public
enemy. For 80 doing he received
the approval Of a grateful people and
made o name and q fame that will
endure through all time, regardless
of the attacks Of popinjsys and
puppets at this late day.
We now come to CONSIDER the panic
Of 1887. The Capital would have the
reader believe this was q natural re-
suit Of the extinction of the United
States bank. We shall show how
and why il was brought about.
General Jackson began his war
upon the bank by the removal from
il of United States deposits, of which,
as has been the recent custom with
the national banks of to-day, this
bank had been permitted the free
and almost unrestricted use. This
precipitated the conflict. The bank
and its allies in and out of congress
at once engaged In the contest
against the president; and adopted
designed to compel a res.
torstlOn of the deposits and ac-
quiescence in the rechsrter Of the
bank. Benton, in his 'Thirty Years
in the United States Senate" volume
l, page 401, speaking of the begin
ming Of this contest, says:
The combination was formidable. The
bank itself was a power, and was able 10
carry distress into all she business depart
mOntS Of the country. The PoIIT1oAA
array against the president was unprSOe-
dented in point Of number, and great In
point Of ability.
The bank numbered among it's
supporters such men as Webster,
Clay and Calhoun, and these names
alone are sufficient to indicate the
force against which the president had
to contend. The contest took lmme-
dlate shape in q conspiracy by which
it was expected to force the admins
trstion to recede from it's position.
A resolution Of personal condemna-
tion against the president was intro
duced in the senate charging him
with violating the laws and the con.
stitution." Of this resolution and Of
those who spoke in favor Of il, Mr..
Benton says:
In all about thirty able speakers, many Of
whom spoke many times, besides many
others Of good ability but without extensive
national regulations. The business Of The

sOUTHINGTOS.

Sept. 22.-The amount of money which school children spend in the course of n term is considerable. Il would be something novel and would please the children if "Child's Saw ing's bank" was established at each Of the schools In town. Each students account could be kept separate in a book and the total each week could be put in the savings bank.
 If there Is n room large enough at the South Center school it would be a good plan to put in a work bench with car penters tools. and learn the boys to do work. They could learn to make some useful articles and could get the hang of using hammer saw and jack plane.
 The climbing vine which has sprea" itself half over the front of the savings bank building and partly on the north side has its principle source of life in q branch which Is not larger than a mans finger. The vine growing there attracts all who have an eye for beauty.
 The borough of southington Is not lacking in public spirited men. but like most places which have got along for n century or more without enjoying all the modern Improvements, 1t Is cus- tomary here to be conservative about everything which comes up for consld- eration and to let those who have the running of things as they are, continue to run them as they see fit and intro- duce new things when they want to, if there Is no cost to the average citi- zen. Most everyone will readily agree with ehe man who lives just outside of the protection of a water hydrant that his property would in case of fire be better protected If water pipe were put down along the street in front of his house and a hydrant placed at correct distance so that a line of hose would reach his premises if emergency called for it. The talk about expenses in such case is to be considered to the extent of keeping the expenses down to point where those engaged in 1t can do good work, but there is no valid reason why Improvements should not be made in the direction outlined each working month in the year until the town and borough througout its set tied territory enjoys the full privilege which good water system gives. The Southington water company should make estimates of cost for putting in branch lines on the various streets where it is practicable to do so and make the figures public and call it to the attention of the borough and town authorities and to the people living along the streets to be improved. The amount of work to be done here in the way of public improvement is not small undertaking, but the improve ments should be made even if money has to be borrowed to make them.
 This is the time of the year when the husbandman thinks of the amount of coal and wood needed to carry him through next winter. There is consid- erable wood to be cut yet before our east and west mountains become bare, and there are number of forest woods in the Quinnipiac valley beside.
 Lawns should be trimmed once more before cold weather, for if attended to they will look fine up to and through the middle of October.
