Cleveland equally cheers the
Democrats; but prohibition was
the real issue in Kentucky
and the traction question the
real issue in Cleveland,
where Republicans who OBJ
jected TO the dictatorship of Mr..
Roosevelt turned the tide in
favor of the candidate he OPP
posed. In New York the issue
was Hearst. The shifty Villa m
R. had united his forces with
the Republicans in the hope of
landing some of the Offices, but
the Tammany ticket swept
everything. Undoubtedly a
good many decent Republicans
voted against their party on
account of its unhOly alliance.
The elections have practically
no bearing on the national sit.
uation. They do show, how
ever, a strong tendency for local
elections to get away from
national politics. A man to win
an election now must not rely
on gen ralities. His talk must
not be of can't and platitude.
The Civil War is no longer an
issue, and the day has passed
when the average man will vote
for scalawag simply because
he calls himself a Republican.
In every state and in almost
every community there is a live
question and the candidates
chances depend more upon his
views on that question than upon
the question of whether he calls
himself a Democrat or a Repub-
lican. Party lines still exist, as
they should, but the voter does
not delegate his thinking to the
politicians.
In general and especially in
San Francisco, where the crowd
dominated by Schmitz, Ruef and
other g~rafters was buried, the
election favored morality. The
defeat of Hearst in New York
and the Reputation of Smoot in
Salt Lake City were both indi-
c tive of a regard for decency.
The growth of the prohibition
territory was also materially in
creased.
There is, then, no cause for
grief except among the defeated
candidates and their friends.
The elections were sane, sat
isfactory and remarkably free
from fraud. Hearst and Roose-
welt both were shown that they
could not tell everybody how to.

THE FINANCIAL A

recent disturbance in Wall
Street was a panic. This fact
was formally recognized on Oct.
26, when the associated banks
of New York decided to issue
Clearing House certificates for
the fifth time since the Civil
War. It is due only to the i'm
mediate action of a group of
much maligned bankers that a
big national panic was ayerted.
OF course these men relieved
the situation to save themselves,
but none the less what they did
was a great public service. The
scare is over now, at least for
the time being, and the banks
are holding to their cash supply
merely to prevent any disas-
trous runs. There is no danger
of a series of bank collapses and
no danger OF a crash like that in
1893.
The causes of the recent ex-
citement were manifold audit is
impossible to tell what was the
chief cause. Some ascribe the
whole thing to President Roose-
welt and there is no doubt that
his wild speeches have created
a genaral distrust of things cor
porate and, as George Harvey
puts it, really convinced the
people that nobody was honest
but himself" But there was
undoubtedly a great deal of
truth in what the President
talked about and some of the
conditions he has been disclosing
more than the mere act of dis
closure made the trouble. The
inadequacy of our currency
system has received much of
the blame, especially from bank
ers; but had there been no
emergency there would have
been no necessity Of meeting it.
The tariff, too, has received it's
share of censure; but the the
tariff, iniquitous as it is, could
not alone have caused a panic.
The tariff, though, combined
with the good crops of the last
decade had raised the price of
every commodity higher than it
ought to be, and prosperity
caused a great deal of illegiti-
mate speculation. The super
structure of living was artificial.
Men with $1,000 would use their
money as a first payment on a
$4,000 investment, think they
were worth $40, 900 and live &C
cordingly. Something was bound
to drop. 1t is probably fortunate
that the speeches of President,
the displacement of Heinze and
the run on the Knickerbocker
Trust company brought the
situation to a head as soon as it
did.
There should not be an
extraordinary amount of
