Of indusfrial depressions is still an I'M

Of indusfriaI depressions is still an un-
solved mystery?
IT is the tendency of the human
mind to attribute industrial depres-
sions to financial panics and other sur
| face indications especially TO such
/ causes as are most apparent on each
from his individual standpoint ALI
see the froth and foam which ride on
| the crest of the wave, but few think OF
the strong unseen undercurrent which
really dlsturbssAthe surface. A most
striking confirmation of the prevalence
of this tendency is found in the evil
dence of the thousands of witnesses
who testified before these government
commissions.
The banker cites reasons connected
with finance; the laborer cites reasons
connected with wages, or with the re-
lations of capital to labor; the mer-
chant cites reasons connected with
tariff transportation, competition, and
the like. The clergyman and moralist
cite reasons connected with morals
and religion. The manufacturer
thinks depressions come from over
production, and the politician believes
that industrial depressions come from
changes OF administration, bad laws,
etc. The English farmer thinks they
come from tree admittance to that
country of foreign agricultural pro-
ducts. A Dutch committee in 1886
found an important cause in the low
price of German vinegar sugar. None
OF these touch upon the powerful pri-
mary cause All are surface indlca-
tons. All are mere opinions. Opon
ions are not evidence. They prove
nothing. and would not solyest this
question in another hundred years.
He then proceeds, after giving a tab
ulated statement of depression in the
United States, England, France, Bel
GUM and Germany, from 1903 TO 1882:
In seeking the cause of industrial
depressions, therefore, we may clear
the field of large amount of rubbish
by sunimarily dismissing from the in
vestigation, as untenable, all alleged
causes which are purely local in a ma
tional sense, such as presidential cleo
tions changes in tariff, demonstration
of silver, national banking system, etc.
1--WE must look for the real cause in
some condition which was common to
the five nations and which did not ex-
ist in the other nations, or in some
thing which took place in the five ma
lions contemporaneously and did not
taka place in ihe other nations. q We
must find, also, some cause Which
placed the five nations in the order
they occupied as to the relative sever
ity of industrial depressions. and, final
~, some cause which grouped little
Belgium with the larger nations, Great
Britain, United States, Germany and
France, while Russia, Austria. Italy and
Spain We're grouped with the smaller
nations.
In the following table, which gives
the worlds iron production, will be
found conditions which meet in every
particular the requirements just de-
fined, The record OF production in 1882
and 1886 is given, because that was the
period covered by the various govern
ment Investigations which discovered
the relative severity of past panics.

Unlike the recent convention Of the
Republicans in this city the stars and
stripes were prominently displayed" |"
Canon City Clipper.
The RpcoRD admits that it was
wholly unintentional on the part Of
anyone in not having the Stars and
Stripes displayed at the opera house
during Senator Wolc0tt's speech last
Thursday. However. history shows
that it is not an obsolute necessity
that the Republican party display
"Old Glory" in order to show its 10y
atty to the government. That the
Stars and Stripes are the national
colors today is wholly due to the
loyalty Of The Republican party, and
80 long az that party continues to
control the country's policy the Stars
and Stripes will continue to wave, and
will also be respected by every power
upon the face Of the earth. OF course
the Democrats will display the colors.
but there r no loyalty hack Of It; It
is done to delude the people. But
the masses are awakening to the
truth, and realize that the best inter-
ests Of the government does not rest
with Democratic leaders in power.

From the InllaOeipnla heccIo
In the little yard surrounding the twenty
first district police station, at 87th street
and Woodland avenue, is a fountain to
which all the sparrows of the neighborhood
have been accustomed to come for their
drinks and their morning baths. The water
flows from the mouth of a metal swan. and
as long as the artificial bird preserved the
neutral color Of the metal the sparrows
paid not the slightest attention. Recently
the swan was painted brilliant red. and
next morning. when the sparrows fiocked
about the fountain for their baths. they
were apparently Mortified to see the big red
monster. None of them would venture
near the fountain. They congregated in a
neighboring tree, and a noisy council Of
war was held. Such chattering had sell
dom been heard. Finally they all flew off
in search of other water. Gradually. how
ever. they have come back. The holder
ones now take hasty plunges in the foun-
tain and fly away to tell the more timid
ones that the red swan shows no inclina-
ton to dispute their rights.
