nor is any indicated. This is large
country, and in farming has risen
above local perversities of season.
Not a crack is seen anywhere in
the foundation. What is, then, that
caused the recent furry? There
has been a deficiency in the cur
rency, to some extent due to hoard
ing, but congress is in session and
can apply a speedy remedy. In or
der to prevent runs by the panic
stricken, the banks took some I'M
usual measures to protect themselves
and depositors, but the hanks have
proved themselves, with extremely
few exceptions, to have assets far
beyond what they owe. Confidence,
or, in other words, credit, has beer
disturbed, and credit represents a
financial working force twice rs
large as the entire volume of cur
rency Gambling in stocks has beer
greatly curtailed, but this is phase
of the mater that is not regretted by
| the people. Plunging on margins Is
at the risk of those who engaged in
it, and the public has no sympathy
to waste on the losers, though they
certainly object to the class of bank:
that get mixed up in it. Individual
credit in, general has been closely
scrutinized anew. An unsound con
Germ must go through the process o
liquidation, but this is no novelty
1t has been a phase of business from
the first beginnings of trade.

THE FOUNDATIONS ARE SOUND

The country's present production
on the farms and in manufactures
and mining is $25, 000,000,000 a
year, and it would be strange II a
people capable of developing such a
business should be unequal to the
details of carrying it forward on an
arderly and fairly remunerative
basis. In the whole groundwork of
American industries there is no in
3ieation of failure in material re-
sources. Crops have been good for
a long succession of years. When
this important fact is analysed it is
seen that results in American agri-
culture have constantly grown surer.
The intelligent methods Of our
farmers overcome difficulties that
formerly took the shape of "bad
years" None has occurred lately,

AGED RECTOR DEAD
THE REV. W. F. BRAND PASSES
AWAY AT EMMoRToN, MD.

BELAIR, Md, February 10.-Surviving
his wife, Mrs. Sophia Brand only nine days,
Rev. DR.. William F. Brand passed peace
fully away last evening at o'clock at his
home at Emmorton. With him when he
died were his associate as rector of st.
Mary's Episcopal Church at Emmorton.
Rev. Mr.. Glenn; Mrs. William G. Hall and
Miss Pleasant Dallam, who, with a pro-
fessional nurse, had been caring for him
in his recent illness.
DR.. Brand was suffering from bronchitis
the day of his wife's funeral and while
a heavy cold produced bronchial complica-
lions, his death was due to grief and his
great age.
His funeral will probably take place on
Thursday morning. He will be laid in the
church yard of his beloved st. Mary's, to
which he had given nearly all the years
of long life and the best Of an intellect
that fitted him for the highest station Of
any bra:ny profession. His death even at
these ripe years Is a blow that comes as
a shock not only to his community and
county, but to the entire state as WELL
Man Of Great Vigor.
He had retained his wonderful vigor I'M
til very recently, and at the time of his
death had in preparation a letter of great
public interest which he intended for early
puDHcatlOn. within the last few months
he wrote two or three articles for news
paper upon the French church controversy
which were distinguished for their clear
ness and close and logical reasoning
DR.. Brand was born in New Orleans June
IL, 1914. Early in the forties he moved
to Maryland and engaged in the ministerial
work in which his whole life was sub
sequently passed. He was admitted to the
diaconate of the Episcopal Church in Sep
TENDER, 1S42, and was ordained to the
priesthood in March. 1874
1t was in 1913 that he moved to Hartford
county and came into touch with the peo-
pie who were to be his Pensioners. In
the short interim of 1912 to 1913 he had
been serving the charge of All Halows
parish in Anne Arundel county. In 1913
he married Miss Sophia McHenry Hall of
Maryland. The two lived together in loving
companionship for nearly sixty-four years
until the death Of Mrs. Brand about
week ago. 1t was in 1S4S that he became
connected with the new congregation of
st. Mary's, that was just then forming for
itself place of worship. and it was I'M
der his direction and care that the present
church was built. 1t Is one of the most
beautiful in the state and was built chiefly
through the generosity of one of Mrs.
Brands relatives.
