SATURDAY EVENING. JUNE %, 1907.

THE FEATURE of yesterdays session
Of The Virginia State Bankers Associt
ton at the jamestown Exposition was
the address delivered by Vice President
Frank A. Vanderlip, OF the National
City Bank, of New York, who spoke Of
the country's business outlook. An sd-
dress equally as important was delivered
by Robert B. Armstrong, of New York,
on the railroad question as bearing upon
the finances of the country, Both
speakers we're formerly assistant secre-
taries of the Treasury. In his address
Mr.. Vanderlip said in part:
Industry as yet has shown only scsnt
signs here and there of declining activity.
Bot nearly all experienced business men
are of the opinion that we are facing a
practically certain recession in trade,
that we have ahead of us a period OF
smaller industrial totals. Such view
is almost universal among well-iniOrmed
business men. There is no longer the
disposition courageously to enter upon
new enterprises. Railways are curtail-
ing expenditures. Bankers are inclined
to exercise caution in extending ac-
commOdations. Most manufacturers and
merchants are planning their fall cam
paigus with much conservatism. That
the period ahead of US is one in which
commercial activities will be curtaied
and manufacturers totals show q &c
crease, there is really little division OF
we'll informed opinion. The question
that is desirable to consider is only in
relation TO the extent CT this recession.
Will it be but dip, lasting only few
months, giving us but time to catch our
breath before we march On to renewed
accomplishments in this most wonderful
development of prosperity; or is there to
be a more prOtrscted and serious dis
turbance?
l believe the answer to that lies wholly
in the public mind and temper. If we
are to have legislation based upon polit-
ical advantage, if we are to adopt social
istic theories which will amount to the
confscation of property rights, if we are
are to have reprissl for past wrongs no
matter how real, if action is the one
thing wanted first, and the consideration
Of the intelligence and fairness Of such
seton is 10 come afterward, then be-
lieve it is possible that the whole
business structure may be facing q dan
ser, the proportion of which will be
measured 10y the same vast figures as
have bc.n the totals that have marked
the extent of our prosperity.
The above observations should be con-
sidered at this time when thoughtless
men are engaged in stirring up friction
between labor and capital. Had Mr..
VaDderlip never opened his mouth on the
industrial conditions of the country,
common sense teaches us all that the
tide of prosperity will not flow on for
ever, and that all classes should vie in
Strengthening present conditions.

Tuesday night of last week
Miss Adelaide ThurstOn appear
ed at The Jefferson Theatre in
'The Girl from Out Yonder."
The performance was one of the
best that has ever been given
here. The supporting company
was excellent and the whole play
was presented in a most realis-
tic and capable manner. The
play is a true drama and develops
both pathOs and humor. and all
through it was clean and whole
some. The plot was intensely
interesting and as it unfOlded
alternately created laughter or
moved the audience to tears.
This was Miss Thurston's second
appearance in Lafayette and
those who witnessed the play
trust to have her appear here
many more times.
