Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1904-07-28

Sc cond occurred in 1866-1S67, when
the number of failures ran up to 2, 1870
and the liabilities of failed concerns
to 500, $780, 900. In 1873 there was a
tn ird depression, which has become
memorable in our history, when the
ailures reached 5, 1888 and the liabil-
tiles the then unprecedented amount
of 1928, 499, 300. Five years later there
was a fourth interval of stagnation
and disturbance. when the number OF
failures nearly doubled and the liza,
bilities again increased, this time to
1924, 1888, 1872. In 1884 the fifth depress-
ion caused the record of failures to
reach almost the same figures. Final
! ly in 1893 we had the appalling total
OF failures at 1882 and the total Of
liabilities at S346, 779, $50.
The Pittsburg Post, quoting
the foregoing from The Times,
says:
We are glad to see special attention
called to the situation in 1877, the
most disastrous of all, for it is well
remembered in Pittsburg. 1t was the
year of the railroad riots and general
strikes. 1t was the year the state was
covered by standing army and citi-
zens were shot down in the streets by
scores. 1t was the year of republi-
can tariff, republican president, a
republican congress and republican
governor and state legislature, as
we'll as republican panic in bust
| ness and industrial circles.
If the republicans persist in
this species of falsehood the
p arty will he confronted with
the record every time. The
people have already had a pref

( ollowing tribute to VIM, J.
Bryan: "Of all the men who
t ook part in the st. Louis con
vention none did so more splen.
didly than Mr.. Bryan. Earnest
and courageous to the END,
fig hting for the things in which
he believed, he YET yielded to
the supreme Democratic princi.
pie that the majority must rule.
He went at least half.way-aye,
more than that-to promote a
spirit of harmony which will
lead to party success. We be
lieve it can be tIuthfully said
that in the eyes of the country
today he is greater than ever
before. There are many who
look upon him as the greatest
living American. He is young
a nd he is growing. With his
wide knowledge of affairs, his
great abilities as a debater, his
magnificent Cratory and his low
able personality, it seems sure
that there must be much in store
for him. AS the central figure
of the great convention he
knows in what regard he is
held by his fellow.partisans the
country over"
