Death OF Newspaper Man.

Claude A. Matthews, city edi-

number of years, died at Ashe-
vile last Thursday where he had
gone to recuperate his shattered
health. Mr.. Matthews was one
of the best known newspaper men
Of the State, and was very highly
esteemed by those who knew him.
His death is a distinct loss to
to the newspaper with which he
was connected so long, and for
which he labored 80 faithfully
and so lutelligently. He leaves a
widow and one child.

Epoch of Great Things.

America is in the midst of an epoch
making time of big things. Nothing could
more fifty demonstrate this fact than the
record of what the Pennsylvania railroad
ts doing 1t is the biggest system of
course, but every other system of inn
portance shapes its policy as far as prac-
ticable after that of the leader. In the
last five years Pennsylvania has more
than doubled its capitalization and the
plans under way contemplate still fur
Their capital expansion. 1t is spending
more than Slo0.00o,000 in New York ter
minals and has contracted for 5000 new
cars which will cost $4,000 600. In the
past five years 1t has spent in betterments
and In stock purchases in other railroads
over $350, 100000, a goodly part of which
has come out of earnings and which might
properly be charged to capital account.
These figures are simply staggering i'm
fheir immensely. They bewilder the mind
hut after all they simply and plainly rep
resent an outlay of money by a great
railroad system which is absolutely re-
CURED In order that ii may keep up with
the times. The magnificent Pennsylvania
plan is the embodiment of American pro-
gress and strictly typical of the sagacity
and courage of the men in charge of our
large affairs.

DEVELOPMENT Is Healthy,

Ii is a pleasing fact that the great bulk
of money which is being borrowed in
colossal aggregate at home and abroad is
going into substantial things-into the
legitimate extensions of business, perma-
nent Improvements and the healthful de-
velopment of natural resources Hundreds
of millions of dollars I'm money are being
turned into business blocks and residences
in our large cities, other hundreds of mil
lions are being invested in mines of eV
cry description and into their proper and
legitimate development, railroads are still
going ahead increasing their facilities for
the handling of business pressing upon
them and there is to be seen on every
hand amazing trade expansion. All this
takes money and credit and as the whole
nation has been under high pressure of
material prosperity and progress for ten
years or more II is inevitable that we
should be reaching out for dollars wher
ever they can be found lying idle or seek
tng profitable employment America hav-
ing expanded in a business way up to
the limit of its own available cash II
must perforce look elsewhere for the
sinews of war to carry ON its business.
Next to having money of your own is the
ability to borrow.

Public Backward.

The public is slow TO realize what seems
clear to the bullsh element in Wall street.
1t hesitates to believe by the advertised
tokens that the banking interests are real
ly going to lend active support or en-
couragcment to speculation for rise in
stocks Or it may be that the great
mass Of people who have money to in
vest are so busy with other enterprises
that they have no time to give to Wall
street or its affairs. Whatever may be
the cause the unpleasant fact remains
that the public appears to be more or
less Indifferent to the stock market So
long as nothing of a flagrantly disauiet-
ing or alarming character shows up the
public appears not to be especially inter-
ested on the other hand any notable
advance in prices is merely hailed as cor
roborative evidence that general condi-
tions are healthy and the country getting
along all right This sort of thing may
he satisfactory to the outside world but
it does not pay commissions or contri-
butte to the discharge of current Wall

Elephant.
ERA OF HUGE DEVELOPING
BY w. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, June 22.-The Developments
of the week furnish further proof of the
statement made repeatedly in these dis
patches that the great banking interests
are in friendly conspiracy TO prevent
monetary stringency as far as lies in their
power. They are doing all they can to
make provision for every business re-
uuirement not only in Wall street but
throughout the country at large The sue
cessful placing of the $4,000 Pennsylvania
loan in Paris is a striking and practical
illustration of its ability to borrow abroad
1t not only relieves the homo market of
the responsibility of providing the funds
but 1t shifts the burden so as to leave
American capital To that amount free for
other purposes Not only that but the
transaction has a wonderfully tonic effect
on confidence Wall street figures that
this Pennsylvania stroke of financiering
makes a direct difference in the New York
money market of 500 100000 plus the
sentimental effect of impressively prov
ing the strength of American credit
abroad. There is not much force to the
latter point, however, as American credits
in the old world have been indsputably
good for many years. 1t is grateful though
ITO our financial pride that France should
at length have given highest official recog-
milton of the standing of American rail
road securities and opened its Golfers to
Uncle Sam To that extent the incident
lof making a big loan in Paris is flatter
dng tribute. Hereafter no market in the
world will be closed against us when we
want TO reach and borrow money. That
IS all very fine from a debtors stand
point, but the incident and the jubilation
attendant thereon calls attention to the
fact that the United States has not made
good the frequent proclamations that it
had permanently taken rank a credi-
tor or lending nation. 1t is only few
years ago that great ado was made over
our participation in "A foreign loan and
within the last two or three years Ameri-
can money had gone somewhat into Rus
