No Danger of Panic

There is no danger of a panic. Those
who are predicting it overlook the tact
hat the worlds volume of money is
increasing. Rising prices follow an
increase in the currency and it is i'm
possible to have a general panic when
prices re rising. OF course, there
will be are adjustments in special cases
where speculation raises prices above
the normal level but we may expect a
steady increase in the level of pr ces
and a continuation of prosperity as long
as the volume of money increases more
rapidly than population and business.
The troubles not with wealth produc
ton, but with distributor. The trusts are
bleeding the public; the tariff barons are
extorting from consumers and the rail-
roads are overcharging patrons, but
these things can be remedied now easier
than ever before. The trusts can be
dissolved and they will employ more
people ard sell more goods under CON-
petition; the tariff can be reduced
and the wage roll and the output in
creased; railroad rates can be reduced
and the patrons can use the mon ey thus
saved in buying what the manufacturer
have to sell.
Nowis the time to dissolve the trusts,
reform the tariff and reduce railroad
rates, and no threat of panic should
scare the public. tCommoner.

Marriages Increasing, Deaths
Decreasing.

DIR. Henry Mitchell, secretary of the
State Board Of Health, says in his last
annual report last year there were 2O,572
marriages i'll the State. This is the Com
ment he makes: This number exceeds
that OF the previous year and probably
indicates the influence upon marriages
which the general prosperity among all
classes exerts." The doctor adds
The deaths were SO, 1854 and the pop
lation 2.144, 143, the death rate being
1910 per thousand inhabitants, q lower
death rate than that of any previous year,
excepting 1898, when the death rate per
100 inhabitants was 15.11 !.
Typhoid deaths for the State during
last year numbered $50, or 1.6S for every
10000 population. He says this is the
lowest death rate for this disease ever
recorded in New Jersey, Fully 20 per
cent. of the people of the State are now
supplied with water about which there is
no question as to infection.
The use of anti-toxin has reduced the
death rate from diphtheria to 1926 per
10000 population. DR.. Mitchell de-
precates the efforts OF the Legislature to
place on the State Board of Health the
work Of distributing a~nti-toxin. He says
this should be looked afrer by local
health authorizes.
There were 354 suicides last year.
1910 persons died from Brights diseaee.
while there were only q deaths from
malaria and only one death from small
pox. The States activity in draining
mosquito breeding swamps is give as the
reason for the small number of deaths
from malaria.
In spite of all the process of science,
concludes the secretary, deaths from can
er are continually increasing

For a Government employee to exer-
cies his citizenship by taking tint poll
tics is pernicious activity and a break
ing of civil service rules. For Secretary
of War, William H. Taft, to spend his
time travelling over the country making
speeches, while drawing $1,000 a year,
is patriotism from President RoOsevelt's
point of view, because he is the Pres
ident's candidate.

THE A CROP SMALL,
The farmers down Delaware say the
peace crop is almost a total failure, and
and many are considering giving up
the raising of peaches, and d~eyoting the
ground now used as peach orchards to
raising vegetables, berries, grain and
truck. 1t is getting to be a serious
proposition and al expensive one, to try
to maintain paying orchards now and
there is every indication that other farm
ers in the famous peach belt will shortly
get to work on their trees with axes.
The crop is oftener a failure than a sue
cess, and most of the growers say their
orchards are an expense instead of a
profit.

"How can Dodge City support such a
fine bandp" was the remark on all sides.

play music that you want to hear. 1t is
the biggest band here, and naturally 1t
has better chance to make the finest Of

the street this morning and entertained
thousands. Hutchinson wishes this
