THE COMMERCIAL SITUATION.

"There is absolutely no sign at pres
emit of any impairment of the stabil-
ity of commodities for the good rea-
son that the chief items on which
commercial credits rest are sold for
months in advance of productions; and
the positively known supply Of raw
materials entering into these commo-
s7ities is under rather than over the
requirements of normal consumption"
Such is the keynote in the circular re-
Gently issued by the Commercial Ma
tional bank of Chicago, which every
to a great mass of business correspon-
dents throughout the country as to
the financial and commercial outlook.
This years report Is based upon an
swers to some 10000 letters, and the
banks conclusion is that "the over
whelming preponderance of evidence is
that the business situation is sound
and satisfactory" Then the report
continues: THAT there has been a
marked easing down from the tension
of the spring and winter months of the
year is generally admitted, but It Is
admitted without a trace of regret Of
misgiving. The country had beer
rushing ahead at whirlwind pace un'
til the tax on credit and capital ac
cumulations compelled respite"

navy of the United States, was born
educated in the Utica Free Academy
and at the Russell Military Academy
of New Haven. He entered Yale in
1876. but left in his junior year to en-
ter the law school, from which he
graduated the same year.

following year was admitted to prac-
tice in the supreme court of New York.
For two years Mr.. Metcalf practised
in Utica, and then moved to Oakland,
California In his new home he gained
eminence as an attorney, and was con-
nected with some of the most noted
cases ever tried in the courts of Cali
fornia.
In 1898 he was elected a representa-
tive in congress from the Third district
of California, and was twice reelected
In 1904 President Roosevelt appointed
him as secretary of the newly ereated

. POLITICS AND POLITICIANS. .

If Governor Fletcher d. Practor is
renominated and reelected in YER
mont as is advocated by a number
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-10-10

of newspapers, it will be the first
time in IS years that a governor OF
that state has held office more than
two years.
Col. A c. Matthews, department
commander of the Illinois G. A. r.,
has announced his candidacy for the
lieutenant governorship. Colonel Mat
thews has been in public life for many
years. He served as first comptroller
of the United States treasury under
President Harrison, was speaker Of
the house in the Illinois legislature,
and was president of the Illinois-Vicks-
burg National Park Commission.
The most interesting member Of the
United States senate from some points
of view will be the first blind man to
take a seat there-Thomas P. Gore of
Oklahoma. Mr. Gore has not yet been
elected, but he was chosen by the
democratic party caucus, and as the
democrats won the recent election in
the state, he is sure of being named.
Gore is well known throughout Okla
homa and has long been prominent in
public affairs there.
Three candidates are making a hard
battle for the governorship in Louis
lana this fall. All three have been
stumping the state and it has been
many years since a livelier campaign
has been seen there. The abolition of
sinecures, the adjustment of the COM
pensation of the public officials, and
the increased public revenues are is
sues figuring prominently in the cam
paign.
In the belief that the statute passed
by the Massachusetts legislature in
1903, forbidding the soliciting of posi-
lions in public service corporations by
public officials has been violated a
grand jury in Boston has returned in
dictments against two state senator's,
two members of the legislature, and
two aldermen of the city. 1t is char
ged that the men solicited positions
from telephone company.
