there can be hard times. General conditions af-
fecting business In this country are sound; there
Is no indication OF the development Of funda-
mental weakness and there is reason to sup
pose that the liquidation in the stock market
represents the coming of business depression
throughout the United States. The railroads
have been moving forward at too rapid pace
in their demands upon the money market for
funds; all lines Of trade have been In a position
approaching overstimulation. and as a result OF
these two factors the money market has been
under a severe strain for months though hap
PLY there has been no disturbance in money Of
serious proportion, the chief effect of the strain
being felt in the securities markets. in which
monetary conditions have compelled heavy SELL

in the current year A sensible slowing down
in the countrys Industrial activities will serve to
strengthen the foundations Of business in all
parts of the land. and that such an operation
soon will be under way is quite evident from an
the tendencies in the current situation. Certain
interests in Wall Street are endeavoring to Gre
ate the impression that federal and state legis-
lation affecting corporations and the activity OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission will upset
the industries Of the country but this talk IS
not considered seriously outside Of the specula-
tive community.
Future action by the Interstate Commerce
Commission may mako it necessary for the
Union Pacific to divest itself Of its holdings in
other companies. notably Southern Pacific.
movement Of this sort against the Hartman
roads will be fought at every point by the Union
Pacino people, and for time the idea Of the
breaking OF the control that Union Pacific ex-
eFcises over other companies may exert an adj
verse influence on the securities market, but It
may as well be accepted as a fact az once that
II the government decides against the Union
Pacific the earning power of that company and
OF Southern Pacific will not be reduced. The
roads will make as much money under separate
control as under single ownership and posi-
bly, more. and the dissolution Of the partnership
Will In no way interfere with trade and industry
or influence adversely the transportation bust

wild tribes and wild beasts. Every
night in the Jungle forests he was
protected in a leafy hut by barriers

The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1907-03-20

We were surprised to read in one
of our ordinarily intelligent exchanges
criticism of Ex-Secretary Shaw be-
cause he had accepted position as
head of '"Trust'' The difference
between a so-called Crust and a
" Trust Company" is so elemental
that it is hard to believe our friend
was serious. Perhaps the name is a
trlhe unfortunate owing to the modern
and corrupted use of the term. But
a man who has brains enough to edit
a newspaper ought to know that a
trust company has nothing more to
do with the dread octopus than a
DARRELL organ has to do with the King
Of Spades. In this instance the word
is used as synonym for fidelity. The
trust company is simply an organiza-
tion that acts as an agent for the peo-
pie and for estates. 1t is sort of
safety deposit vault for the odds and
ends of business of all kinds. The
trust company looks after invest
ments, wills, rents houses. does all
sorts of business for all sorts of peo-
pie. The trust. so-called. is a COM
bination of interests for the control of
any particular line of business. The
man who can see the connection be-
tween the two deserves a leather
medal.
