"Woodland."

Henry w. Savage is to present his
revival of the charming comic opera
"Wood;and' at tie Keylor Grand thea
er, on Friday, December 13.
sThe story of Woodland" is imagina-
tive and poetic. the, characters are all
chosen from the feathered tribe and
furnish opportunities for a great di-
versity of suggestive costumes, from
the broadly comic Blue Jay and the
Rooster to the gorgeous Peacock and
piece is clean and refined and the act
on at all times sprightly, but the prin-
cipal charm will perhaps be found in
he music The songs are delightfully."-
lively, tuneful and catchy, aid the en-
semb!es and choruses have been de-
Jared to be the best Mr.. Gustav Luders
has ever written. AS In the case of all
of Mr.. Savage's offerings, the staging
of the piece will be found to be elab-
crate. costly and artistic. When the
opera is given here 1t will be the same
in every detail as when it was origin
ally presented in Boston.
woodland" is in two acts and both
are laid in the cool shade of the forest
and represent a scene in the woods at
early dawn. The characters represent,
by the colors and particular features
of their costumes, the birds they are
supposed to represent, as not feather
is used in any of the costumes.
The we'll known funmakers and song
Isters who appear in this quaint nusf-
cal conceit are George w. Leslie, Alon-
20 Price, Henry Benham, Dwight AL
len, H. A. Barrows. Mary Quive, Eli
zabeth Spencer, Constance Farmer, Lii
iela Smith, Ethyle Cooke, Florence
Rother and Hazel Cox. In addition
there will be founl a score of young
women who, as they are all supposed to
represent some feathered denizen OF
the forest, were selected for their
daintiness. beauty and voice, forming
one of the prettiest and best singing
and dancing choruses ever seen. The
company also carries it's own orches-
ira in order to insure a proper inter-
probation of the delightfully."- catchy
music of Mr. Luders.

ALASKA DELEGATES.

is conflict in two particulars. The call

the earliest election of delegates jar

SHALL WE FEED THE DISEASE?

c. Mr.. r. NJ. Whitney, OF. Los Angeles is
a student and thinker of note and i'm
portance. He has published articles and
books of unusual value. pamphlet
from his pen now appears, entitled
The National Currency and the
Ranks" which contains much good
ahiLking and many valuable statistics.
but which offers "a plan for national
currency" that cannot possibly be ac-s
cepted.
Mr.. Widney would substitute a uni
form legal tender currency, to the
amount say of $4,000. 900 600, to replace
all currency and substitutes, leaving
gold and silver as they now are, ard
require al, forms of National and Ma
tional bank notes to be retired in eX
change for the ne wissue. The Nation
al banks might make their own secu-
rites a basis of additional circulation,
subject TO approval of the secretary of
the treasury. These notes should be
subject to such tax as would enforce
their retirement, when they were not
actually needed, says the Oregonian.
Under this system the spirit of spec
ulation would lead speedily to another
crash, because the system would open
too wide a door to speculation. Money,
or currency, would be too easy Of OBJ
tainment. In a country like ours, full
of undeveloped resources. the hope of
gain is too optimistic. The only check
upon it is the check upon credit; and
this check can be maintained only
through the difficulty of getting money
or currency, which again depends on
the scarcity of money or currency.
The present crisis had its genesis
in the fact that money. currency and
credit were too easy. We shall not re-
duce the danger by increasing the ia
cilities for obtainment of money, cur
reLcy and credit. for speculative I'M
'dertakings. 1t cannot be wise to dis

feature of the College Minstrel and

A class of 16 girls has been working
for a month on this feature, under the
careful direction of Mr. Mitchell whose
speciality is fancy stage marching,
and it promises to be an unqualified
success. Many fancy and intricate for

essor E. S. Meany of the University of

torical data of the northwest and of
Alaska, has been presented by Maj
General A. w. Greedy with all the pub

of the Department of the Columbia
The records cover all military ac-

Nez Perez campaign of that year. the
Bannock war of 1879, the Chinese riots
on Puget Sound in 1883, and the mining
troubles in the Occur DAlene's in 1892.
Among the commanders who made
their reports are Nelson A. Miles, in

OLYMPIA, Wash, Dec. 1.-THE
Northern Pacific has filed answers in

factions recently brought against that

sion. One suit was to punish the road
under a new law for hauling train
load Of defective cars from Seattle to
Tacoma July 4, 1907. The effect of
this action if the Commission is sue
cessful, will be that the road will pra-
ctically have to establish carshops at

to collect demurrage because but one

that unexpected increases. in traffic
brought greater demand for cars
than the roads trackage could handle

done in constructing the North Bank

fairly against other shippers, and then

Owing to the uncommonly severe
laws as laid down to all railroads by

the students of Whitman college who

This action on the part of the railroad

NOVEMBER ADVANCE TO, WARD
OFF PANIC RAISED PER CAPT.
IA FROM $s242 TO $34.71.
(By Henry Clews.)

NEW YORK. Dec II, 1907.-Another
week of gratifying recovery has been
Icurity values show an advance Of 10
points and over on the leading issues.
In bonds as we'll as stocks, there have
been substantial gains, and the who.e
drift of the financial situation shows
genuine recuperation. The premium on
|currency is gradually disappearing and
|call money is becoming more and more
easy, rates having touched as low as
three per cent during the week. Time
money continues scarce at 10 to II per
cent for short dates; not so much from
any deficiency in supply, as from the
which are still obliged to exercise eau
ton in the granting of credit. Gradu-
ally, but surely, the money market is
working back to normal conditions. The
disposition to hoard is abating and
bark reserves are rising, having been
materially assisted by the engagement
of about $1oo,ooo.o0O Of gold, the bulk
Of which has already arrived. .44.t
Fortunately our interior banks are
rapidly getting over their fright now
that the situation in New York is inn
proving, and within a few weeks
money will probably be abundant and
much easier than at present. There is
no lack of currency. The amount Of
circulation on November BOZ was
$2.s7S. 100000, an increase of nearly
$132 600, 900 within the month. and
$4,000 600 within IL months. This is
circulation per capita of $34.1 COM
paired with s3242 a year ago. OF the
increase in circulation during Novem-
Der, se6OOO,0 900 was in gold coin and
$50, 900. 600 in bank notes. November
was thus a month of unusual expansion
in currency.
Marked Improvement.
Considering the iessened volume of
business and the lower prices at which
it is being transacted, it is evident that
we are rapidly running into condi-
ton of monetary redundancy; a fact
which has been wisely recognized by
the government: and is reflected in its
decision to modify its recent relief
measures. 1t is now believed, that Mr..
Cortelyou will not issue more than
s25. 900. 900 of Panama bonds, and That
the issue of new certificates will not
exceed $4,000 600, or a total Of about
$40, 900, 600 for both classes Of securi-.
ties, instead of $150.o00.000 as original
ly intended. From all parts Of the coun-
try there come reports of steady i'm
provement in the money situation. and
il is confidently believed that the
complete resumption of specie payments

period
