full. HIS peroration was very fine IN a
rhetorical sense. On the whole he would
have been wiser had he concluded to be
notified at home or near home. There is
theatrical feature TO making a trip

formality, which steady gong people do

UNLESS all signs fail the present
fall will be the dullest in the expert
ence of those now actively engaged
in business in this country. The I'M
settled financial situation has made
that a certainty. No manufacturing
institution will enter into tine con
tract because the cost of production
will be made out on the present basis,
while payment may be made on a
different one. The result will be that
many factories will close down rather
than risk the heavy losses by which
they are threatened should they con-
tinue Money will likewise be charv
of seeking Investment IN the United
States and foreign investments will be
withdrawn just as soon as they be-
come due. Those which are not due
will be sold at a discount, but of
course only for gold and thus a drain
of this metal will at once set in. The
withdrawal of foreign capital is
enough of itself to precipitate crisis.
Gold is now out Of circulation and the
question is by what is it to be re-
placed?
1t is business question which con-
fronts rs and it should be considered
without political bias or unseemly
passion. Those who think a complete
revolution of our financial system can
be had without accompanying dis
aster should examine the question
dispassionately. The hasty action of
a convention is poor guide for action
affecting the life blood of nation.
The policy advocated must be an I'M
wise one when it is contrary to past
experience and at variance with the
present usage OF all progressive
countries. A political convention
which is in antagonism with the bust
ness of the world cannot be in the
right, and the citation of statistics to
prove it so is idle.
The facts of history are in oppo-
