ted out that weakness nineYears
ago and the Republicans, al
though in power in both houses /
of Congress practically ever
since, have never had the cour-
age or the intelligence to remedy ,
the defects. They have nevereven
ma,le an honest effort to do so.
There is a good deal OF amuse-
nlent in Washington over the
blind attempt OF Senator Fora

An Observer Of Many Pan!cs.

(CllarlOtte ODSefNeT.)
Elder p. D. Gold, OF Hion's
Landmarks and the Wilson Times,
has lived through seven panics.
beginning with the panic OF 1887
and should consequently be an
authority on the subject. That,
he has used his opportunities Tor
observation to frst-class advan-
tages clearly appears from one
OF his signed editorials in The
Times. Elder Gold notes that or
dina'y panics are characterized
| by insufficiency of money in cir
cnlation. At the same time he
has seen enough OF bad money to
realize that such situations are
only luade worse by pouring it
ont as a supposed remedy. Con-
fdence mst be graduaIlynurs
back to health. All paiics come
as reaction from an over-san-
guine state of the public mind
and bear ~ strong family resem-
blance to each other. We quote
from u description;
at is curious to note how pan
les creep ON people. There is Il
period of ofprosperlty. Mans temp
tation to accumulate is stimula-
ted. People over purchase or con
tract debts beyond their power
to pay. They are fiattered that
time will still grow better. But
pay day must come. Somehow
, there is a day OF reckoning when
, settlement must be made Some
: leaders in commerce fail to pay
1 that cripples Others who are thus
rendered unable tomaet their ob
5 legation. Distrust, want OF conf
} dence spreads. The cry OF shor
: funds is sounded. Fabulous rates
+ of interest are offered by debt
Y ors for cash, but that increase
