CHECK IN SPEED
WHAT IS NEEDED
Former Secretary Shaw Sees
No Cause for Alarm in the
Financial Situation.
CROP PROSPECTS ARE GOOD
UNIVERSAL SANITY ESSENTIAL
AT THIS TIME.

New York. Aug. 1s.-Leslie NJ. Shaw,
former secretary of the treasury, author
lied the following interview on the pres
ent financial and industrial conditions to-
day:
-Our farms produce more than $780,,
100000 per annum and the prospect is good
for an average crop Our mines. yield
more than 81 800 900 900 and our forests
these sources of wealth has been ex-
hausted. The output of our factories in
other than food products is 81. O00, 100000
and no fires have been eXtinguiShed. The
railways earn more than s2.000. 900 and
they are all in successful operation. The
payrOlls of our factories and railways dg-
gregate approximately $500, 100000 and
the scale of wages has not been reduced
In other words the real sources of the
peoples wealth have not yet been af-
fected and the ability of Industrial con-
Germs TO pay dividends is not measured
by the market price of their stocks Log
ical reasons for serious conditions are
therefore wanting. Psychological reasons
are never wanting.
Depends Upon the People.
"If I judge correctly, the people will
have exactly what they expect. If those
who have money in the banks withdraw
ii and lock it up; if the hanks refuse
to grant accommodations. and if the con-
Stunning public decline to place orders,
then we will very soon witness the ef-
fects- Let those who think that times
Of disaster follow each other at regular
intervals bear In mind that this coun-
try never yet experienced period of de-
preston that was not traceable to finan-
cial or economic agitation or legislation,
and usually to both.
In 1898 the redemption of greenbaclxs
in silver instead of gold was openly adj
vocated. The party in power was under
promise to remove the protective tariff
from our industries and the free coinage
of silver at the ratio of 1e to / was cham
piOned by prominent members of both
parties. The country might have sur
-vived any one of these sources of alarm,
but it could not SURVIVE all three. At
this time no one questions our financial
system, and the tariff will not be touched
for at least eighteen months.
Check is Desirable.
Some check in the speed at which we
are going is most desirable. and the
checking process has probably begun. 1t
viii require fair measure of con-
fidence and courage to prevent undue
retardment in our industries. Capital
cannot be forced into activity but it can
be forced out of activity. I have never
seen the time when universal sanity was
more essential to our well being"

one other mill of not less than $780,

Another Dumping.

Sheriff Buford had another dump
ing of contraband liquor on Satur-
bay. He did not attempt to burn
this, but simply potired it out on the
ground. There were about eight GAL
Ions in quarts, and in one, two and
three gallon jugs. This had been on
hand for thirty days.
The remarkable part about these
seizures is that no one has put in a
claim for the return Of any whiskey
seized by the sheriff. The conclusion
therefore, is that it was all contra.
band and not for personal use.
