Prosperity Not Affected.
r. B. Van Cortlandt of Keane, Van
Cortlandt & Co. said.
1T is scarcely necessary 10 discuss
the causes of this break, more than
TO recognize the oyerextension of
credit that has characterized the
financial transactions here and else
where. Conditions such as we have
seen cannot be continued indefinitely
and the longer the reaction is de,
layed the more severe it will be
when it arrives. For the last two
years sound banking conditions have
not been maintained and 1t was in
evitable that we should at some time
suffer the illness that has found its.
height in the fever of the last few
days. These underlying conditions
are not changed by a recognition Of
the sentimental considerations that
may have started particular declines
or increased their violence
ION the favorable side of the case
we have the factor of continued proc
perity in this and other countries
which has not been affected as yet
is encouraging also as compared with
the state of things in the depression
of 1903 TO think of the worlds in
creased production. The South Afri-
can gold development had hardly be
gun in 1903 and our own production
was materially below its present
volume. These are underlying facts
upon which a recovery may be based
from any real injury to legitimate
business that may ensne. More |
Dver. IL is always encouraging when |
there has been an unhealthy condi-
ton to have the crisis reached and |

Mations--Arbors Day Is Set
for Observance Friday.
April 26.

Governor Deneen has issued &
proclamation designating May IL as
jamestown Day The proclamation
Is as follows.
THE 18th day of May, 1907, being
the three hundredth anniversary OF
the first permanent settlement of OuI
country by the English al James
to,wn Virginia, and deeming this a
good time TO impress upon the minds
If the children OF Illinois the lesson
of this important event In the history
Of the world, |, Charles s. Deneen
governor OF the state of Illinois,
hereby designate Monday. May II, as
jamestown Day.
Il urge that every school In the
ATE devote a part OF the day To the
study OF the history and the com
memoration of this event that the
children may know of the struggles,
snfferngs and final victories OF these
pioneers of our great nation.
Illinois having at one time been a
part OF Virginia, her first English
state. and so many OF her illustrious
men being of Virginia ancestry. 1t
is especially fitting that our Virginia
origin should be noted
" THE history OF our country records
no more heroic achievement than the
conquest of the northwest by George
Rogers Clark. and no more generous
act on the part OF state than the
cession Of the northwest territory to
The United States by Virginia. l.,
therefore. urge that these facts be
brought clearly TO the mind of he
young by the holding Of appropriate
exercises
Governor Deneen also issued the
following Arbor and Bird Day proc
lamaton:
Under the authority OF the act OF
the general assembly passed to en-
courage the planting of trees. Shrubs
and vines about the homes along the
highways and about the public
grounds Of the state, |. Charles S. De
neen, governor OF the state of Illinois
hereby designate Friday. April &c. as
Arbor and Bird Day
While in this prairie state We are
deeply concerted In efforts 10 make
every acte of land render its maxi
mum yield, we should not neglect
our duty in identifying our private
and public grounds BIZ. planting trees
and shrubs. | believe that we can
transmit to our poslerity no finer
heritage than land well set beanti |
trees.
Therefore. urge hat village and |
city authorities. school boards, each |
ers and owners of homes, observe the |
day NY planting trees, shrubs and
vines and that appropriate public ex-
ereises be held that will encourage
the care and love of trees, that we
may enjoy them ourselves and leave |
the earth 10 those who come after us
more beautiful and wholesome than
we found It."

SOCIALISM FAILURE
ON ITALIAN ESTATE

ROME, June S.-An experiment IN So
cialism, undertaken by Duke POmpeo
Litra in Lombardy. has proved that the
Italian peasant is not ripe for Utopian
schemes for his betterment After eight
years of socialism. the duke is apply
ing to the courts to regain possession of
his land which nc had let in small lots
at nominal rent TO peasant families.
When the duke inaugurated his land
reform he had come from Germany,
where he had imbibed socialistic ideas
from Bebel and The other German so
cialists. Their teachings he pat in prac-
tice on his return to the ancient estate
OF his ancestors, where the peasants sun
lived in a sort of feudal state.
He dispossessed the large tenants Of
their holdings, and divided them up 10
l37 families of the peasants for Guilt
vation At first the scheme was sue
cessful, and the peasants prospered, but
recently they became INDECENT, and
abandoning their crops began to cut
down the woods. which the duke had
stipulated should be left untounched.
The peasants were also tempered with
by socialist delegates. who urged them
to claim ownership and refuse 10 work
This brought about the final failure Of
