The New York panic was probab-
ly due to bad banking. The banks
loaned enormous sums to gamblers
in stocks. The prices of stocks went
down, aud then came the scramble
by the bankers to get their money.
That is about the only excuse that
can be thought of for bank failures
in the financial center OF the country
at this time. All over the country
business has been good. 1t never
was better. The demands for labor
and it's products everywhere could
not be satisfied. All values we're ris-
ing, Every industry was prospecting
and the trouble was local. Its less
Ons have a general application.
Reckless banking is a menace against
which the whole country should be
on it's guard.-Republ:c.

Interstate Commerce Commits
sioner F. X. Lane is authority for
the statement that the Southern
Pacific Railway, of which Hartman
is president, has repeatedly violated
the law by giving rebates and the
violations have continued up to
Sept. "a, 1907. He further said:
eve found in the Southern Pacific
office list of preferred shippers
who paid but portion of the pub
lished rate upon state shipments.
This list included many of the larg-
est and most important manufac-
turing firms. We found 20 books
which had accumulated since the
first of last year, and which showed
the special rebates. There were
several thousand entries. These
refunds amounted to 100000 dur
ing the last year"

The interest and cooperation
shown by the people living up-river
in securing a good county road to
the boat landing, is gratifying to
the citizens of Kennewick, who have
taken upon themselves to secure the
favorable action of the commission
ers for this needed public conven-
fence, The up-river folks have
been quick to see that their supplies
will be taken up-river by boat for
some time to come. A road which
provides for an easy and convenient
access to the boat landing, makes
for a quicker and cheaper handl
ing of those supplies for up-river
points. Conseuenl t,y the petition
for this road has been quite gener-
ally signed by the up-river residents
and some Of their leading
business men, including Manager
F. E. Wiel, Of the White Bluffs
Land & Irrigation Co., have agreed
to be on hand at the Commission
ers' meeting next Monday and show
that this road is of as direct import
ance t. =. m as to the Kenncwick
people.
