The establishment of old age pen
sions for needy miners has long been
under consideration by the English
government, but no minister or party
appears to have presumed or dared
to present definite plan of carry
ing out the plan. The recent inaugu-
ration of such system by the Not
tinghamshire Miners organization,
which has a membership of $4,000
and treasury fund of 100000, has,
therefore, occasioned considerable
comment throughout the land. The
organization is making an experiment
of a system under which it proposes
to pay 81 per week to members of
ten years standing who may be needy
and past fifty years of age, during
the next two and half years, and
for longer time If necessary. The
successful working out of the plan,
the details of which are not available
at this writing, will, it is believed
result in one of the great political
parties of the country advocating the
establishment and partial mainten-
ance of such fund for aged and
needy miners.

The report of President Nichols of
the United Mine Workers union at
the Wilkesbarre, Pa, convention
showed falling off in membership
for that district of upward of 81 900
for the past year. Despite this, how
ever, the report says, the union has
done more effective work for it's
members and maintained it's strength
for a much longer time.

San Francisco is still caring for

if it can clean up it's grafters. The

and their givers, says Judge Goodwin
in Goodwin's Weekly.
He places George Peabody at the
head with his great gifts to London
and this country. Second, John F.
Slater's fund for educating freedmen;
third, Mr.. Rockefeller; fourth, Mr..
Carnegie; fifth, Mrs. Russell Sage.
Others have given more thany OF
these save Mr.. Carnegie, but the
beneficent nature of the gifts is what
the writer in Outlook dwells special
ly upon. We do not think the article
is discriminating one. Mr.. Carnegie
has given more than Leland Stanford
did, but Stanford gave all he had;
so did John Harvard, and though it
was but a little sum measured by
modern fortunes, it has drawn more
interest, interest in great souls, than
any gift ever made in this country.
Of like Importance was the gift OF
Johns Hopkins And considering the
motives behind the gifts and the re-
suit, close up to the head of them
all should stand Peter Cooper. His

for every business man to prepare
himself for change in conditions.
Failures have already set in at the

eral big concerns have gone to the
wall There can be no question but
that there is trouble ahead for all
who are not prepared to meet it.
The stock market has been going
from bad to worse for several
months; money is more timid than
it has been before for ten years;
straw might throw the money centers
into the worst panic that has been
recorded since 1898, and all of us
who were doing business at that time
remember how difficult it was to
keep our heads above the financial
sea. If more trouble does not come,
so much the better, but think I can
see the financial sky clouding up for
a big storm and desire to impress on
the mind of every business man to
be prepared to get in out of the wet

Despite heavy liquidation in the
security market, the banks still ap-
pear to have all their available re-
sources occupied, and borrowers find
rates at the legal maximum, with an
extra commission to be paid for all
accommodation over the period of
pressure, says Dunn's Review.
During the next few months there
is no prospect of substantial relief,
rates of domestic exchange being
against this center and funds will be
withdrawn until the crops are har-
vested and sold. Last Saturdays
bank statement showed that the equil-
ibrium had been maintained by con-
traction of loans equivalent to the
loss in cash, and the further selling
of stocks since the report was made
up may have offset the continued
drain in cash, but there is practically
no surplus at a time when a substan-
tial balance would be most satisfac-
tory. The treasury could liberate
a large sum, but at the present in
ternational parity it is more than
probable that any considerable relief
of that nature would start exports of
gold, relieving pressure abroad rath-
er than here. Gold is being produced
freely in the Transvaal as shown by
the output of 11,1S9,676 pounds in
five months, which is more than any
full years record prior to the last
decade. The South African mines
paid dividends for the first half of
this year of 3,238,606 pounds, or

The Chicago Construction News
for July shows that building opera
tions in the principal cities of the
United States began to show signs of
slackening in that month, the aggre-
gate of permits issued for July, 1907,
being only $45, 650,330, as against
$47,157,415 in the same month of
1906. San Francisco shows up well
in the Construction News table with
APP permits calling for an eXpendi-
ture of $4,612,333, as against 40
permits in July, 1906, with an ex-
penditure of $3,514,0O0, gain of
81 per cent over July, 1906. 1t is
noteworthy also that while the cost
of the buildings for which permits
were taken out in July, 1907, was
nearly 100000 greater than in the
same month in 1906, the number of
permits was forty-eight less. The av-
erage cost of the buildings for which
permits were taken out in July, 1906,
was $7,476; in July, 1907, the av-
erage had increased to $10,928. Los
Angeles construction permits num-
bered 655 in July, 1907, with an ag-
gregate cost of $1,313, 020, as against
1853 in July, 1906, costing $1,783, 618
decrease of 26 per cent. The av-
erage cost of the buildings for which
permits were taken out in Los An
geles in July, 1907, was $4,000, less
than one-fifth of the San Francisco
average.
