Once when Emerson was I'm the
company of men of affairs, who had

he said, Gentlemen, now let us dis

Emerson was called "the dreamer
OF dreamers," because he had the pro-
phefic vision that saw the world that
wound be, tine higher civilization to
come. Tens OF thousands of men and
women today stand where he stood
almost alone. Dreamers In this sense
arc true prophets. They see the civ.
ilization that will be long before it

TALK OF A PANIC.

Wall street Is attempting to make
the world believe that there will
surely be n panic If President Roose.
welt does not call halt In his vigor-
GUS campaign to compel the big cor
porations to comply with the laws of
the country, and while the capitalists
OF the money center of this nation
could eventually create fearful de.
preston In the business world, IL
they SO desired, there Is little need
of worry The monied men of this
country are too shrewd n set to bite
off their nose TO spite their face.
While such panic would probably
stand as n rebuke to the Roosevelt
administration It. Is doubtful II even
the enemies of the President want to
gain victory over him by snch fear
full means. The financial and cor
poratc interests of this country do
not want panic any more than do
the great mass of Americans. Indus.
trial depression would mean heavy
losses to corporations and bankers,
and losses are not looked upon with
pleasure by anyone, much less do
people voluntarily bring them upon
themselves In order TO get even"
with some one else.
If there is an industrial depression
coming there is nothing In the trade
reports OF the mercantile papers to
show 1t and It is perfectly reasona.
bic to presume that there is no i'm.
mediate danger of panic. 1t Is true
That certain railroad managers have
been very free the past few weeks
with their talk Of trouble ahead, but
they have not pointed to anything
that would warrant their statements.
One railroad king said that great i'm
. provcmcnts contemplated on his sys-
tom had been abandoned, but the
change has not, SO far as is appar.
cnt, been due to fear of decline of
/. traffic. but to perplexitics in regard
ing funds.
Doubtless the real reason why the
railroad people view the situation with
so much gloominess is because the
public has not been quite so eager to
swallow up its millions of dollars
worth of new securities which have
been issued since the beginning Of
the new year. There was such a
flood of the same kind OF securities a
few years ago and the country was
burdcned TO such an extent with what
were termed "undigested securities"
that lesson was learned by the in
weston and he Is trifle shy Of
piunging heavily into the rinancier's
net.
