run POET AND THE GIRLS.

The Oklahoma State Capital quotes
a poet as saying that when God made
the American girl He sent His angel
messengers throughout all the star
strewn realms of space to gather all
there was of beauty and brightness Of
enchantment. of glamour. When those
angels returned from their harvesting
of beauty and threw down their gilt
tering burden at His feet. He began, IN
their wonderful presence, the fashion
of the American girl He wrought
with the gold and the CLEAN of the
stars, shifting glories Of the rainbow
hues, and the pallid silver of the
moon. He wrought with the crimson
which swooned in the roses rubbed
heart, with the pure sweet snow which
CLEANS from the lilies petals and the
fire of the flames which flash and leap
from jewels depth. Then glancing
deep into His own bosom He took of
the love which cleaned there like
some rare pearl beneath the wind
kissed waves of a summer sea, thrilled
into the form He was fashioning, and
all heaven and earth rejoiced, for 10!
He had wrought the American girl."
That's all right except that the poet
was speaking of the Virginia girl IN
particular, and not of the American
girl in general.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.

FINANCIAL SIIUAIlONs
Those who so glibly predict panic
should remember that panics do not
come when they are looked for. They
are precipitated by some unexpected
calamity or by sudden fear. When
the public are prepared the panic does
no. come. Panics usually follow pc
ried OF wild speculation. Prices are
inflated, debts are Incurred based on
fictitious values. and by and by the IN
flation bursts the bubble and there Is
a sudden collapse.
These conditions do not exist in the
United states to-day. We have had
n season of great business activity, and
the price of commodities and OF labor
has advanced. There has also been an
advance in the price Of lands and there
has been some land speculation. But
there has been no speculative craze,
least OF all in the stock market. 1t
is true that the price of stocks was
in nated two years ago. but during the
declining until to-day they are lower
than they have been since the depres-
aion of 1903. Weak accounts have been
liquldated without causing any heavy
failures. and the technical position OF
the market is or should be, strong.
Wall Street has stood the strain mar
vellously well. and II panic should
come. 1t would be In spite of the most
drastic measures from that quarter to
prevent 1t. That Is but to give the
devil his due.
The real trouble is that the expansion
in trade and industry has outstripped
the increase in working capital. The
demand for money which is pressing
upon the banks does not come from
the stock market. but from the rail-
roads. the merchants and the manufac-
turers; and soon there will be another
demand for money to move the crops
In any event a condition like this
would have made money tight" and
the rate of interest high. But the
situation has been aggravated by the
attitude of the administration in Wash
ington, the State governments and
the general public toward corporations.
Capital is proverbialy timid. and iii

it will relieve, the strain on capital and
be blessing instead of calamity.
Underlying conditions certainly do not
Justify panic or anything approaching
| it. But If by insane clamor and drastic
Legislation and persecution confidence
lis once destroyed, a panic will come,
and prosperity will be turned In short
order to adversely. The business world
never before stood in greater need of
American conservatism and common
sense.

article published in another column

of the National Bank Of Virginia. We
had not seen Mr.. Habliston's article
when we wrote. and we are pleased to
note that his views are in accord with
those of The Times Dispatch. Mr.. Hab-

is he railroad man or Corporation
