laws regulating the national banks
allow them TO loan 10 per cent OF
their deposits, and state banks
larger per cent OF their deposits, II is
plain to see that a bank doing a le-
gitimate business in accordance with
law could not stand a run al any
time, therefore confidence Is the only
doctor than can prescribe for lack
of confidence.
Then, on the other hand, some will
say that banks ought not TO he al
lowed to loan their deposltors' mon
ey; granting their reasons Of tho sit
uation TO be true, then the banks
would become the misers' stockings,
and money would be boarded up IN
banks, and go out OF circulation al
together, and II would be necessary

for boarding their money for safe

the system we have of banking ana

but what we want now is confidence
in ourselves. in our nation and In our
banker and business men.
We have exactly the same method
of doing business now that we had
two months ago. and the people were
satisfied then. We have several NIL
lion dollars more today than we had
two months ago. The miners are
producing an enormous amount OF

As n result of his recent rtip, First
Assistant Postmaster General Hitch
cock Is working on bill which he
will offer to congress, permitting
postmasters of the middle west AMI
west to pay salary to clerks and car
rIers In excess OF the grade which
the postal employees really hold. Tho
postoffice department has been ex-
perienclng difhculty for some time
past in retaining the services of eX-
periepced employees in the postoflices
of the west.
This condition prevails particu-
larly in the mining regions of the
Rocky Mountains, where in the last
few years towns have sprung up over
night and have become cities within
a few months. In those places prices
of everything including labor Is very
high and II has been found impossl-
BILE TO retain men In the postofico
service at the salaries paid. Mr..
Hitchcock found, for Instance that
at Goldheld, New. Edward Il. Col
Inns, the postmaster there has paid
out far more than his salary in order
that the office might be maintained
Il is possible that congress will pass
a special bill reimbursing Post
master Collins. While this is an
aggravated case. II shows the condi-
tion in which the postal service "a

love old mothers-mother with white hair
And kindly eyes, and lips grown softly sweet
With murmured blessings sleeping babes
There is something in their 1uet grace
That speaks the calm OF Sabbath afternoons;
A knowledge in their deep, unfatering eyes
That far outreaches all philosophy.
Time, with caressing touch, about them
The sllver-threaded fary-shawl of age,
While all the echoes OF forgotten songs
Seemed Joined to lend sweetness to their speech
Old mothersl-as they pass with sow-timed step,
Their trembling hands cling gently youths strength
Sweet mothers!-as they pasAone again
Old garden walks old roses, and old loves.

Big sticks are plentiful enough
everywhere, perhaps, in this admin
istration. save only that telephone
and telegraph companies throughout
the country are finding them scarcer
every year. Either artificial cultiva-
tion of the timber suitable for poles
will have to become general or
substitute for wood must be found.
one of Uncle Sans consular
agents stationed at a German city
reports that a factory has been start
ed there for the manufacture of glass
telephone poles of the standard sizes.
These are reinforced by meshwork
of wire threads. II at all practicable,
they will almost certainly be useful
in tropical countries where tele-
phone companies complain that
swarms of ants fasten upon the
wooden poles and devour them SO
completely that nothing is left ex-
cent the glass insulator hanging
over the space where the lnsulator
pin used to be. Whether glass poles
are adaptable for use in this country
remains to be seen.
It has already been shown that
seasoned timber in contact with the
ground will outlast unseasoned, and
dry wood is more receptive of pre-
servative fluid than is green wood,
II scientific skill succeeds in great
lly lengthening the existence of the
average wooden pole, and If the
methods of scientific forestry which
the forestry bureau Is trying to In
culcate become generally adopted, 1t
Is likely that glass sticks will not be
needed in this country to carry the
vast net work of telephone wires by
which practically every American Is
able to converse with every other.

house of the nation, financial AFFAIRS
are much easier and much money
has been sent by the banks of the
metropolis to the middle west, par
ticularly to st. Louis, where heavy
demands have been made by the
smaller banks of the southwest for
currency with which to move the
crops. Despite all this and notwith-
standing that Mr.. Cortelyou said
this week that the crisis had passed
TO such an extent that the matter was
not even discussed at the cabinet
meeting. there is an air OF decided
nervousness in the business world
that will force congress to take mn
early In the coming session the mat
ter OF currency reform.
The fact Is pointed to that panics
come in seven year cycles and that
Ithe country has been notably free
from any financial disturbance since
1888. Having skipped 1900, the
seventh year after the disastrous
days OF '93 the superstitious are
wondering whether this year of 1907
