REMARKABLE CoNFTDENCE.

Perhaps the most remarkable feature
OF the alleged financial troubles of the
past two days is that there has been no
| attempt at bank run outside of New
York and a small one in Chicago No
greater proof of the soundness of our
prosperity and the existence of great
business confidence could be produced
AS rule, when there are rl1nors of
financial troubles tin1id depositors begin
| 10 mock to the banks and withdraw
their deposits. If any unusual condi
tlon prevails they gather in little
groups and discuss the situation. while
business suffers. Yet no such symp-
toms have been evidenced over the
country as a whole, notwithstanding
the actions of the bankers in every citv
10 protect themselves against antici-
pated runs
Even In Oklahoma, where the banks
nave been closed for week for fear
OF depletion of their currency re-
serves, there has been no undue excite
ment. AT this distance it looks as
though Oklahoma bankers and officials
nave acted foolishly in taking the ac-
tion they did. and it will reflect no
credit upon the new commonwealth IF
is not the fault of Oklahoma peonle
however. They have shown no disnosi
ION to lose their heads, in spite of the
actlon OF their bankers and their act
ing governor. IF the banks had remain
ed open, business would doubtless have
gone on as usual with injury to no ono
Another remarkable feature is that if
wan Street intended this panic to reach
the farmer and the wage Garner. 1t has
nor succeeded. The people ut the grass
ROOTS are acting sanely and refuse to 70
stanlpched- Consequently there is no
general trouble. The farmer has n1entv
to supply his needs, he has faith in the
banks and in the government. he has
nothing to do with Wall Street. and the
panic has no effect on him.
