failure accompanied Wall streets de-
rangement, the result would have been
serious. indeed. Mr.. Roosevelt's ad-
minstration escapes a panic by virtue
of a lucky prosperity due to exception

In the end the shipbuilding case will
have good effect. Though it is illus
trated what publicity may uncover in
connection with some sO-called trusts,
exact knowledge Of the facts affords
a basis upon which to apply the cure
of prevention. A legal publicity has
been agitated by statesmen before,
and it would be advantageous to urge
it to the fullest in the next congress
sa that by a system of reports the re-
lation between the invested capital
and the capital stock may become

TO HOLD THE FORT.

1t is remarkable how Indifferent the
citizens Of Walla Walla appear to be
to the recommendation of General
Fred Funston commander Of the de-
partment of the Columbia, that Fort
Walla Walla be abandoned. A few
years ago such a suggestion would
have aroused a storm of protest as
menace to the prosperity of the town.
It is true that this city has reached a
state of assured growth and perma-
nent solidity that makes it independ-
ent of the state or national govern
ment, but for all that, the retention
of the garrison at Fort Walla Wal
la is still a good thing for the business
interests of the city, to say nothing
of its social advantages, and no effort
should be spared to prevent the dis
mantling and abandonment Of the Old
fort.
General Funston had precedent for
his recommendation. General Otis
some years ago advised the abandon
ment of Fort Walla WalIa and it is
known that the war department at one
time issued an order to that effect,
but it was held in allegiance because OF
the strenuous fight against it made by
WalIa Walla's Commercial Club. That
the order has never been formally re-
vOked and it can be revived at any
time by the secretary Of war. That is
just what is likely to be done any day
now and some day not for distant the
people of WalIa Walla will wake up
to learn that the garrison is to be per
manenly removed, that the old bar
racks and officers quarters are to be
sold at public auction, that the morn
ing and the evening gun and the shrill
call Of the bugle Will be heard no
more and that patriotic airs by til.
garrison band will no longer
Stir the hearts Of our people to re-
newed devotion to duty, home and
country.
To prevent such a misfortune the
citizens should act through the Com
mercial Club, the city council and
mass meetings. Walla Wallas Unit

THE SHIPBUILDING CASE.

That foreign holders of American
industrial securities are beginning to
TASK questions" since the disclosures
in the shipbuilding trust case is not
surprising. 1t will be remembered
| that an effort was made to float $6,0OO,-
900 of the shipbuilding bonds in Eng
land Now it appears that the entire
shipbuilding consolidation was neatly
who, with the J. P Morgan banking
firm, alone it is alleged, has profited
by the deal. Schwab's cash profit is
estimated at $6,5OOOOO. At present
the whole affair, to put it mildly, re
fleets seriously upon the business
standards Of Mr.. Schwab, primarily,
and secondarily upon the business
methods of Morgan, reputed to be the
nations greatest financier.
The most regrettable incident re-
vealed by testimony in the shipbuild-
ing fasco is that of the two dummy
directors" practically boys, who voted
blindly on all propositions according
to the dictates of their 'emplOyers.'
One admitted that he received $40 for
his services. These dummies voted
to increase the capital stock from
$4,000, 900 to S45 100000 and balloted
upon the issuance of S26,000,000 in
bonds.
Schwab, at the time Of these trans
co+io i h0 -to IL fY,,r
represented the most powerful indus
trial interest in the world. AS the
executive head Of this vast business
he certainly was esteemed as a giant
among the captains of industry"
looked up to by every struggling
youth in the land. He stood for what
might be termed the maximum of pos
sible success-the man whose strict
attention to details, whose hard work
and whose native capacity had rem
dered the cash value of his services
cold million a year"
His tumble must therefore, entail
deplOrable consequences. Having been
such a figure in the industrial world

it follows that the confidence" which
is the backbone of speculative pros
perity is severely shaken. The eff
feet On industrials is felt call along
the line" Small wonder that CAPT
talists in England are evincing a no.
ticeable ''timidity," and that the
shock causes rumblings and trembi
ings to amodiied degree in all the
financial centers of the United
States.
1t is difficult to escape the conclu-
sion, in view of Leroy Dresser's plain
statements of the vast disparity be-
tween shipbuilding assets on paper
and in fact, that similar "watering'
of stocks has entered into other heav-
lily capitalized interests.
However, there is nothing as yet, to
indicate that the material condition of
the vast majority of vested interests
or of business in general is affected

FOR A CARNEGIE LIBRARY.

Spokane. Ballard and Lewiston are
soon to have Carnegie library build
ings. Probably the only reason that
Walla Walla has not been remember
ed by Mr.. Carnegie in his attempt to
give away his fortune before he dies
is because no special effort has been
made on behalf of this city to call
the great philanthropist's attention to
the need of a public library building
here. A condition eXacted by Mr..
Carnegie before donating money for
such purpose is that the town so
favored shall agree to provide for the
maintenance Of the library. AS the
city of Walla Walla for the last six
wears has levied a tax for this pur-
pose, the city would be put to no extra
expense.
1t is time, therefore, for some con-
certed action to be taken by Walla
Walla citizens towards securing from
Mr.. Carnegie money enough to build a
suitable home for the public library.
If such home were built the money

There is no particular reason why the
Woman's Reading Club should under.
take the raising Of money enough to
build a good library building when
Mr.. Carnegie is so eager to give his
money away to save him from the sin
of dying rich.
This matter is worthy the serious
attention of the city council and the
Commercial Club and should not
longer be neglected. 1t is true that
some years ago a half-hearted request
was made to Mr.. Carnegie not to
forget Walla Walla in his free distri-
button of library buildings, but the pc
tition was not pressed, and it is doubt
full whether the steel magnate ever
heard of it.
The request should be renewed in a
way that will bring it fOrcibly to Mr..
Carnegie's notice. Spokane sent Sen
ator Turner to see Carnegie about a
library building for that city and why
should not Walla Walla send Senator
Ankeny on a like mission? Carnegie
is now touring Ireland defeating pub
lie Libraries, but he will return to Am
erica before long and Senator Ankeny
should be able to secure an interview
with him. We were told for years
what a splendid thing it would be for
Walla Walla to have a United States
senator and it is about time to
make use Of him now that we have
him.
''As everybody's business is nobody's
business, it is doubtful whether any
attention will be paid to this sugges-
ton unless some such organization as
the Woman's Reading Club brings it
before the city council and the Com
mercial Club. But a Carnegie library
building would certainly be a good
thing for Walla Walla and it is time
something were done toward securing
it. Who will take the lead?

Tom Johnson may not come within
hundred thousand votes of being
elected governor of Ohio, but his red
automobile campaign in every nook
and corner of the state is certainly
giving Mark Hanna and his minions
the scare of their lives. Hanna has
imported spellbinders from every
state in the Union, and even members
of President Roosevelt's cabinet have
been drafted into service in a desper-
ate effort to prevent the G. o. P. ma

elected, he would at once become a

About two years ago the Union

ed, which it is estimated will cost
about $4,000. Business men have
subscribed quite literally to the

to look over the work and ascer-
tain what is necessary to he done.
