The Panic Due to UnsOund C0ndi
tons in Finance and Business.

Fundamentally this panic is due to
unsound financial and economic condi.
tions. Modern civilization is con-
structed on an unsound economic basis,
-one that distributes the products of
industry unjustly and that, in large
degree, discourages honest effort and
thrift and encourages speculation and
extravaganza. While society permits
private individuals and corporations to
enjoy virtually unregulated control of
public franchises and other special
privileges and to gamble in them, there
will be speculative booms, and, when
the booms collapse, speculative reaction.
In one case the wild "bulls' will put
security and other prices (by the aid of
a gulllble public) far above their nor
NAL values, and in the other case the
wicked "bears" will depress prices far
below their real values. While our
economic conditions provide such ex-
cellent material for speculation as are
aCions and of titles to lana, there will
be speculation. When there is specu-
lation there will be booms and panics.
Human nature changes but little from
generation to generation. Men seek to
crafty their desires with the least
effort. If governments permit those
who get control of the opportunities of
production to live practically without
work, there vii! always be a scramble
to get control of these opportunities.
Hence, until these opportunities or
special privileges are either taken out
of private hands or are so regulated and
controlled that their values will not
swell and shrink and thus furnish food
for speculation, we may expect boom
and panic cycles.
According to this theory, neither
speculation, nor bad currency systems,
| nor bad banking laws, nor anti corpor-
alton legislation, nor "muck raking,'
| nor corporation mismanagement, nor
even the deliberately laid plans of high
! tinanciers are the primary cause of this
or of any other panic, though any or
all may be contributing and aggravat-
ing causes For practical purposes,
however, we may, as does Horace
White, attribute panics to over specula-
tion. Bagehot's views were not very
different. He said that panics are due
to the fact that 'at particular times a
great many stupid people have great
deal of stupid money" He said that
"This blind capital seeks for some one
to devour it and there is plethora: it
finds some one, and there is speculation:
it is devoured, and there is panic."-

LAID TO REST
Body Of Henry Schneider Buried
Saturday Afternoon

About a dozen friends and &C.
quaintances gathered at Hurst's
undertaking ,parlors Saturday
afternoon to attend the funeral
services held over the remains
of Henry Schneider, the man
who was found dead on Fourth
street at an early hour last
week Thursday morning. The
Rev. T. A. Olson conducted the
services, which were brief, but
nevertheless, appropriate. He
read the 39th Psalm, which be-
gins with the words: II said I
will take heed to my ways, that
I sin not with my tongue" and
throughout is an example of the
life we should lead. This was
followed by prayer, and then the
minister gave a few remarks
which were appropriate to the
occasion. The tenor Of his re-
marks were that as a man lives
he usually dies, but it is not for
us to judge of the judgment he
shall receive after death. He
'enjoined his hearers to take the
life of the deceased as lesson,
for we know not when or how
death will overtake us.
The Rev. Olson conducted bur-
ial services at the grave, which is
in G. A. R. cemetery. =:

TAFT WILL SPEAK

Washington, Aug. 22.-Since
the return of Secretary Taft
from his vacation, all Washing
ton at all interested in politics
has turned it's eyes eagerly to-
ward Columbus, O., where the
secretary is to deliver an ad-
dress next week before the State
Republican clubs. The big cab
met officer is expected to an
nounce his candidacy for the re-
publican nomination for presi-
dent to succeed Mr.. Roosevelt in
1909, and much Importance is
attached to his forthcoming ad-
dress for the reason that hither-
to he never has expressed him.
self publicly concerning his atti-
tude toward the boom which his
ambitious friends launched for
him, having held aloof until the
internecine strife in the Buck
eye state reached a point where
he might know where he stood.
Now that he has been so strongly
endorsed by Ohio officially, it is
regarded as certain that Mr..
Taft will not only declare his
candidacy for the nomination in
1908, but will set forth in no un-
certain way the principles for
which he will stand in the event
of his nomination and election.
Congressman James Kennedy, of
the 18th Ohio district, who is in
the capital this week on business
declares that the fight in y. his
state never has been along the
lines Of the availability of presi.

Ulu ally IIllilS CIley were uUC COIIl-
PEELED to do on pressure from the
outside. They seemed to think
they were under obligation to
investigate into the reasonable
ness of the character of the serv-
ice rendered unless some COM
plant was made. This is not as
it should be.
"The great majority of the
people who bear the burden of
transportation and who suffer
the wrong if the burden is excess
sive, cannot appear themselves
before the commission to make
complaint. Bear in mind that it
is the consumer of coal and mer-
chandise and special commodi-
ties and the producer of grain
and live stock who really pays
the freight. They do not deal
personally with the railroads.
The freight is paid by the deal
ers and the producer and the
consumer never really knows
how much the excessive freight
charges takes from one and adds
to the other, and the commission
who, from year to year, sit in
their offices and do nothing un-
less forced to do so, utterly fail
in their duty.
During the investigation
last winter when the chairman
! of our present commission be-
fore our committee and the Sec
rotary of their commission was
on the stand, they both had to
admit that during the many
years they had held their offices
the commission had practically
done nothing towards compell-
ing the railroads to render a
reasonable service at reasonable
rates, and when they were fore
ed and compelled to show how
they stood in the matter at one
of their own hearings, they re-
sented it to the extent of disbar-
ring the attorney who represent
ed the shippers who compelled
them to do their duty. But there
will come a time when this au-
gust body will act differently,
but not until the people will take
interest enough in the matter to
see that men are nominated and
elected who will represent them
instead of leaving it to the rail
roads as they have heretofore.
''The railroad commission has
acted as though they were re-
sponsible to no one except those
who created them, namely, the
railroads, but a new area is
dawning. Thanks to such mer
