MONEY
EASIER
NORTHWEST DOES NOT
SUFFER LIKE EAST.
MOST OF THE BANKS ARE ON A
SOUND BUSINESS
BASIS.

Portland, Ore, Oct. 28.-Prominent
bankers of this city are unit in the
belief that eastern banking conditions
are not going to affect Portland or
north Pacific financial institutions.
They state without reservation that
money was never so plentiful, nor gen.
eral business better. Credit balances
with the east are and have been for
many months in favor of the Pacific
northwest banks, and money Is con-
tinually being loaned in the east in
stead of coming west for that purpose.
Crops throughout the Pacific north
west will be of record-breaking guam
tity-63, 100000 bushels of wheat-at
record prices. Portland bankers say
they are interested in New York finan-
cial conditions only because New York
is the banking center of the country.
Utah on EASY Street."
Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct. Is
Bankers, business men and the public
in Salt Lake City enter the present
week with no fear of local financial
disturbances. Each bank in Salt Lake
doubled it's reserve with the first I'M
easiness in the money situation sew
eral months ago. This policy had the
effect of allaying any apprehension
| that might otherwise have been caused
| by the disturbances in the east. There
has been no unusual drawing of de-
posits, and no hesitation about intrust-
ing money to the banks. The mining
exchange, one of the best financial
barometers, showed signs of recovery
at yesterdays calls. The depression
in the value of all securities has tight
ened the money market, and interest
is higher than usual. Call money went
at per cent during the week and time
loans were as high as 10 per cent.
Colorado Affairs in Good Shape.
Denver, Col, Oct 2S.-Financial mer
of this city express the utmost con
| fidence that all danger of serious re
New York is now passed and thai
conditions will right themselves rap
idly. Charles B. Kounze, president O.
the Colorado National bank, and als(
president of the Denver Clearing
House association said tonight tina
the recent trouble in financial circles
of New York had had no appreciate
effect on business affairs of Denver
u and Colorado, and that none wa!
feared at any time.
Confidence in California.
San Francisco, Oct. 2S.-The open
ing of new week finds absolute con
fidence among the bankers of this cit.
that there will be no local financia
embarrassment, for the reason tina
the banks are not borrowers. Loca

CRUISE is NO AFFAIR OF JAPAN
Visit to Pacific Waters Need Give

Washington-"No such relation ex-
lists between America and Japan as
would make it improper to send the
American fleet into the Pacific. If
there were, the relations between
America and Great Britain and the
relations between America and
France, which are the same, would

ship fleet in the Atlantic ocean,"
This was the reply returned by Sec
rotary Root to the direct question as
TO whether Japan had entered any
protest against the dispatch of Ad-

December. The statement was made
at the conclusion of long conference
between Secretary Root and Ambas-

THEIR PAY ENTIRELY TOO SMALL
Postal Clerks Sent to JaiI-Can't Sup.
port Their Families.


Three postal clerks were sentenced
to prison recently in the federal court
at Chicago. Judge Bethea made the
sentences light because of the stories
the men told. Their statements were
reinforced by the declaration of the
superintendent of mail clerks in the
Chicago postoffice, that no man with
a family has any business entering
the postal service as a clerk.
Each of the three men sentenced
had a family. Each has had sickness
in his family. Each received $500 a
year as salary. Each testified that
he stole because that would not pro-
vide food for his wife and children and
leave any margin for medicines. Two
of the clerks got two years each; the
other got three years. They were John

CHAPTER vi.
ITO Be or Not to Be-

TO BE or MOT TO Be.
They were seated rather close togeth-
er upon the steep hillside, gazing silent
ly down upon squalid Glencaid. At such
considerable distance all the dull shah
biness of the mining town had disap-
peared, and it seemed almost ideal,
viewed against the natural background
of brown rocks and green trees. Every
where was loneliness, no sound telling
of the labor of man reached them,
and the few scattered buildings far
below resembling mere doll-houses.
They had conversed only upon the
constantly changing beauty Of the
scene, or Of incidents connected with
their upward climb, while moving
slowly along the trail through the
fresh morning sunshine. Now they
sat in silence, the young girl, with
cheeks flushed and dreamy eyes aglow,
gazed far off along the valley, the
man watching her curiously, and won
dering how best to approach his task
Observing her now, sitting thus in
total Inconsistencies of his scrutiny,
Hampton made no attempt to analyze
the depth of his interest for this waif
who had come drifting into his life.
Even to his somewhat prejudiced
eyes she was not an attractive crea-
ture, for she possessed no clear con-
ceptlon of how to render apparent
those few feminine charms she pos
sessed. Negligence and total uncon-
seriousness of self, coupled with lack
OF womanly companionship and guild
ance, had left her altogether in the
rough. He marked now the coarse
ragged shoes, the cheap patched skirt,
the tousled auburn hair, the sunburnt
cheeks with suggestion of freckles
plainly visible beneath the eyes, and
some of the fastidiousness of early
days caused him to shrug his Shout
ders. Yet underneath the tan there
was the glow of perfect young health;
the eyes were frank, brave, unf1inch-
ing; while the rounded chin held
world of character in it's firm con-
tour. Somehow the sight of this
brought back to him that abiding
faith in her dead gameness" which
had first awakened his admiration.

reasonableness of my position"
Hampton sat silent, gazing out of
the window, his eyes apparently on
the lights now becoming dimly visible
IN the saloon opposite. For a consid-
cradle time he made no move, and the
other Strengthened back in his chair
watching him.
Welt" he ventured at last, what
is your propositions" The question
was quietly asked, but a slight tremor
in the low voice told of repressed feel
ing.
That, for the present at least, you
confide this girl into the care of some
worthy woman"
Have you any such in mind?"

mines. She is a refined Christian lady.

closed over his fingers.

She glanced quickly. about at him,
as though such unexpected expressions
startled her from pleasant reverie.

A sudden CLEAN of fierce resentment
leaped into the dark eyes, the un-
restrained glow of passion which
had never known control. "Oh, you

You have about decided! Well, why
don't you altogether decide? don't

Seemed that mother only cared
For the simple things of life;
Seemed that mother never shared
In the turmoil and the strife.
Simple things were her delight
Closer to her heart, / guess;
Tears would fill her eyes at sight
OF little baby's dress.
Little socks that once were worn
And a little bow of blue:
There's a little nightie, torn,
Where baby's foot went through
These are all the simple things
She has treasured through the years
And each one a mem'ry brings
OF babys smile and tears
Only simple. simple things.
Little bottles, soiled. it's true:
But to them she fondIy clings,
Seems that mothers always do
Closest to her heart they lie,
Sacred treasures none may share.

When a man has done his work
shall he stop and play? Rev. DR.. Scott
OF Worcester, Mass, who has resigned
rom his pulpit after 80 years of
service In order to devote himself to
golf' thinks he has earned this play
time, and he doubtless has. The
trouble 10 that when a man works for
30 years without giving any time to
pleasure he commonly does not know
how to play. A due amount of diver
sion at intervals along the road is the
safer and more satisfactory plan. Il
would tend to postpone the day when
