Things Looking Upwards.

Middendorf, Williams Il Co.'S,
weekly letter of January Ilth,
had the following to say of the
general outlook: In the financial
world the New Year has opened
most auspiciously, and on every
hand are evidences that IN so
far as the money and security
are concerned the worst is over.
Commerce and industry have
shown no decided tendencies to-
wards regeneration yet, but as
they were the last to suffer from
the tremendous upheaval of 1907
it is only natural that they should
oe the last to recover. Reports
are being published rom time to
time of industrial resumption on
a considerable scale but these
reports are greatly exaggerated.
Until some impetus is given from
without, no revival OF activity in
commerce and manufacturing can
be looked for. La all other re
spects, however, the opening days
of 1908 have measured up to
every Legitimate expectation; the
premium on currency which was
one Of the distressing features of
the severe crisis Of the closing
months of the old year has com.
pletely disappeared and through
out the COUNTRY there has been
all almost uniform resumption of
cash payments. Bank reserves
in New York, which showed All
enormous deficit for so many
weeks, are rapidly being restored
to normal basis aud this has
been reflected in the position of
exchange and in the gradual
easing OF money rates both for
call loans and for three and six
months loans. The Bank OF Eng
land showed its confidence in the
belief that the worst is over by
lowering its discount rates aud
on this side of the ocean the re-
turn movement of the currency
from the interior seems tO~have
begun In no uncertain way. Far
from there being any fear or a 70
currence of stringency, there is
need of some concern whether
the situation will not become ab-
normal from another point of view
in the not very distant future.
Tens Of millions of gold were
poured into this country during
the late autumn, national bank
note circulation was greatly aug
mented and every possible force
looking to an enlarged currency
was set in motion.

TAFT CoNFESSES.

Secretary Taft in his late speech to
the Boston Merchants Association, ac-
knowledgts the awful pass that the
policies Of his party have brought upon
the country. Listen to him: "In this
widespread catastrophe [ have the
deepest sympathy with the great body
OF business men and wage earners, who
know are honest and will have 10
bear the brunt of it, and | feel the
greatest solicitude and anxiety for
their recovery, but urge them not to
allow their resentment at conditions
to be made weapon against the pub
lie veal" His advice to those bust
ness men who are feeling the full effect
of the Republican panic is spoiled by
the partisan coloring, for ''the public
weap means, of course, the RepubIi-
can party. AS a prospective candidate
he hides the fact that resentment at
the policies of that party is all that
will save the country from further
trouble and lead TO reform. How diff.
ferent is this tone of confession by the
Republican leaders from the boast
fitness of the past few years. Pride
cometh before fall.

ing with the newly elected At
torney General the statutes OK
listing upon the INFECT in other
States and countries, and have
been impressed with divers pro
visions of the Corrupt Practices
Acts OF England. New York and
Connecticut. which l understand
have proved effective in eradicat-
ing he crime and evil in ques
ton. In this connection | take
the liberty Of suggesting that the
statute upon this subject which.
as | take it, we are all resolved
to pass in Maryland should pre-
scribe among other things, the
publication by the candidates and
political committees of til Q
amount of their expenditures,
with limitations upon all such
amounts, the publication of all
receipts of money (and the
source of the same) for campaign
or election purposes. LIZ should
declare every title to Office void
upon proof of corruption in con
nection with it, and should rs far
as may be constitututioually pos
slble, commit the decision OF con
tested elections to the courts aud
prohibit contributions for polit-
zeal purposes on the part Of cor.
poratiens. Beyond these salient
features | shall venture upon no
further details and Shall take
leave of this subject fully conf
dent that the General Assembly
will spare no pains or efforts to
deal thoroughly with matter of
such vital concern to the good
fame, well being and safety of the
State"

SIGNS OF THE POLITICAL
TIL Els

The Republican internecine war be-
tvs en- the Roosevsll-Tat faction and
Foraker, ct al, is reaching climax,
which indicates that there may lie a
double delegation to the Republican
Natl 'ual Convention from Ohio and
perhaps New York and other States.
This should awaken Democrats every
where to the fact, with such trouble
impending in the ranks Of our frienus
the enemy, there should be united
action, instead Of like disagreements.
in the party of the common people
The one hopeful sign that makes it
possible for Democrats To agree, is that
there is no disagreement upon essen
tial Democratic doctrines aud policies.
All believe in tariff reform. All de-
sire to sse the trusts Shorn of their mo-
nopoly and he trust magnates pun
ished for conspiring to restrict trade
All acknowledge tnat the railroads
must be compelled to charge reason
able rates. Every Democrat il oppos-
ed to building up the money power
with asset currency at tho expense of
the people, or by uprighteous tariff
taxation that the National Banks may
benefit No Democrat believes in sub
ridies for the shipping trust aoy more
than tariff subsidies for the industrial
trusts.
There would be entire harmony on =
platform of principles, if Mr.. Bryan
had not injected into his campaign for
the nomination the government own
ership OF railroads; the guarantee by
the government of the deposits in
National Banks; the licensing of cor
porations doing Interstate business
and other innovations upon which
there is a great difference of opinion.
Although Mr.. Bryan has attempted
to put off the discussion of govern
ment ownership OF railroads in the
coming campaign. yet he insists that
it must ultimately be adopted as the
only solution of the railroad problem.
Under such conditions it would be i'm
possible to prevent governmental own
ership from becoming prominent
subject of discussion if Mr.. Bryan is
and the Democracy would
be compelled to fall in line for policy
that the great majority of them do not
endorse. Therefore, the Democrats
would be handicapped at the start and
reed " their opponents to discuss a
problem upon which they are divided.
Some of Mr.. Bryan's friends think
that he will eventually decline the
and ask his friends to vote
for some one who has supported him
in the past campaigns. II he would
do that there is not much doubt but
that there would be Democratic unity,
aud the signs of the times are so pro-
pitious that there is good assurance of
victory.

Salient Points Of the Speech

trasagance against the last Leg
islature in th- matter Of placing
men upon the pay rolls unneces
sarily, he did speak an sdmon-
iahing word to the mem bers of
the present General Assembly,
relative to economy, expressing
his confidence that hs would not
waste the peoples money.
This ia what he said upon this
subject:
with y view of utilizing to
the utmost all the resources of

will benefit the people and
strengthen it's progress | respect

eral Assembly the Importance OF
economy in the appropriation OF
the peoples money.
"The dutiful servant Of the

to prevent extravaganza or waste
in public expenditures. aud | am
confident that the mbers of the
present General Assembly will
not fail i'll this important public
duty. Consistent with this pris.
