OF dollar in currency and all
parties to the transaction receive
their pay and all obligations are
satisfied. This method has really
prevailed in the business world in
ninety per cent of the business done.
In 80 doing the western banks do
not have to call upon the eastern
banks for the balances due them
and that money is allowed to re-
main in the east to assist in re-
esta blishing the money market
there.
Immense gold shipments are be-
ing engaged from Europe. Fin
anciers east and west are helping
to their fullest ability and the
Secretary of the Treasury has de-
posted large sums in government
cash in the eastern banks. All
these things are helping wonder
fully. If every man who engages
in an exchange of commodities will
help along by accepting his money
by check, so far as possible, he will
add just that much to the efforts
being made to restore the usual
conditions.
People should not get the idea
that the financial furry which has
just passed is an industrial panic
similar to that of $685. It is not.
The country was never more pros
porous, prices have never been
higher. Work of all kinds was
never more plentiful. Every year
a large amount of money is needed
to move the crops. This year
wheat has run up to over a dollar
per bushel, barley to nearly a dol
lar and other grains in a similar
manner. The farmers have re-
ceived more money for their pro-
duce, more money has been needed
than usual to pay them. The banks
of the country underestimate the
vast amount needed for this pur.
pose and have had to use every
means within their power to handle
the big transactions. The very
vastness of the business which is
being transacted is partly the cause
of the lack of actual cash to handle
it. This lack of money is being
supplied as fast as the government
mint can turn out the money.
Locally the banks have done we'll.
Large transactions have been taken
care of in checks. Small ones
| have been handled with cash.
The question is not and has not
been as to the ability of the banks
to pay. 1t is a matter of placing
the money where it will best facilit-
ate business and serve the needs of
the public. The man who comes to
town with load of produce and
sells it for thirty dollars, gets a
check for it goes to the bank and
gets the check cashed, puts the
money in his pocket and goes home
takes just that much money out of
circulation and cripples business
Just that much. If he takes his
money to the bank, leaves it there
and issues checks against it he
helps just that much toward the
ultimate end toward which all are
now working, namely the speedy
recovery of the usual financial
equilibrium.

but unite their practical esteem

There are too many men who ex-

of their pet notions and hobbies,
advocate their views against the
strongest opposition, and coolly
withhold the business support by

Cargill Debenture Col
lapsed.

There has been New York
concern operating with branc h
office at Columbus, that spelled
"get,rich-quick" to the ready
money fellow, but to the watchful,
looked like skin game. The
company was known as the Car
gill Investment Co., and alledged
to take peoples money and invest
it in sure thing book making at
horse races, all over the country,
and pay $500 per week on each
$4,000 invested. Many persons
in Logan put in any place from
$4,000 to $4,000, and had been
getting their $500 per $4,000
every week. 1t looked like a good
thing, but like all "good things"
it had a sudden end.
Wedn esday morning instead of
sending the usual dividend to
each stockholder at Logan, some
very pointed circulars arrived,
announcing that the company had
suffered a loss of all funds and
could not pay dollar. This was
blow to the "sack- k-holders," for
they know that the end of their
venture is at hand and their
money lost. Many persons are
shaking hands with themselves in
Logan for keeping their hard
earned dollars in their pockets,
against the oft repeated solicita-
tion of friends that it was good
thing.
The Journal-Gaze tie said last
night that Editor Dollison was
about to invest, when the crash,
came. No, Editor Dollison has 40
money to invest, and if he had he
hatters himself with having more
sense than to bite on a horse-race
gambling scheme. The many
fellows around town who did in
vest are welcome to their business
judgement. If we have any
money to plant, We will soak it in
Logan real estate, and double our
money in few years. Real estate
is always there, when you look for
Lit.

ing the Lancaster Fair, was in
stantly killed while returning
home Saturday evening, by falling
from passenger train No. f., just
mile west of Logan, between the
the White and Rempel ponds.

O'Clock, but the remains of the
dead man were not discovered for
several hours later. The body
was brought to divers under
taking establishment for identifi-
cation and remained there until
Monday morning before being
fully identified. Two sons came
to Logan on the early morning
train from Athens and identified
the body as that of their father,
who had been missing from home
since Saturday night. Mr.. and Mrs
Mansfield both attended the Fair,
Saturday, and upon their return
trip, Mr.. Mansfield boarded the first
section of the train No. "a, and on
account of the crowded condition
of the cars, his wife waited for the
second section. The last she saw
of her husband was a farewell
wave of the hand as he stood on
the rear platform. Just how
Mansfield met his death, no one
knows. All facial resemblance
was destroyed beyond recognition,
the right hand severed, ex-
cept the index finger and thumb,
the body also terribly cut and
bruised. Mr.. Mansfield leaves
wife and three sons to mourn the
loss of husband and father. The
funeral was held at Athens, Tues
day afternoon.
