How Hard Arc We Hit1


N seems not to be difficult for th0ss
who choose to look for 1t to dIscOvF-
that the results of the money strin-
gency are widespread. But when tn
most positive observers come to sizo
up the cause and probable duration Of
the unhappy state of affairs individual
opinions are weak, and there is a no,
tceable lack of unanimity among ex-
perts. The Wall Street Journal usu.
ally goes deep into financial questions,
and 1t declares that the cause of de-
preston is not to be found in the
crops, neither in the Industrial field, In
our money system nor in our CONNER
cial organization. Any one Of those
four features of our activities might.

panic that we should long remember.

The manufacturers have not reached
this last stage yet. Side by side with
predictions Of prolonged hard times In
sight are those from equally calm and
thoughtful sources prophesying that
the trouble will ''be over In a month"
and that no really serious industrial
disturbance will follow. The New
York Times says that instead of being
alarmed over the disturbance the pub
lie should feel assured that nothing
much is the matter, because In spite
of all "the general business of the
country has shown such decided firm
ness and soundness." Perhaps the
view Of the Springfield Republican is
the best example of the worst that can
be said In all candor and calm good
faith-that is, "the panic consequences
to industry, while they may prove
sharp for the time being, will not
prove to be prolonged" Surely pros

The present state administration has
been lavish with the peoples money
and in refusing to draw warrants
which he believes to be Illegal the
state auditor is doing what his oath
of Office and his duty to the people
require him to do. His attitude in
the matter is sound and he has placed
the responsibility on the state board

the remedy by informing the board
that II 1t does not consider his posi-:
ton tenable 1t can apply to the su-
preme court for a remedy. The disa-
greement between the auditor and
governor is due to an attempt to force
the auditor to issue deficiency war
rants for the payment of Pinkerton
bills In the Steunenberg case. These
bills amount to many thousands of
dollars, many of them being for
questionable transactions.

Speed at Panama.

Commenting upon October's record
in excavation at Panama, the Wash
ington Post calls attention to the fact
that the expectations of every one In
terested in the canal" have been more
than satisfied. Says this paper:
During the entire period Of the French
administration, from 1881 to 1903 they ex-
cavated 7O,6O0,000 cubic yards. Since the
United States assumed control in 1903 there
have been eXcavated up to Nov. /, Is, GEO, 900
cubic yards. On June /, 1904. there re-
manned III, $4,000 yards of material to be
taken out. Since that time the excavation
has reached 1A1S9. 900 yards, leaving 97,0g1,-
COO yards still to be removed. AT the rate
of progress made during October, fifty
three months. or four years and five
months, would be required to complete
the excavation, and were II not for Colo
mel Cocktails timely warning that the
construction of the massive locks rather
than the excavation of the canal prism
will, from now on, control the date of
completion we might look for the OPEN
ing OF the canal at no later date than the
summer of 1912 In fact the remarkable
organization and efficiency of the force
Of canal constructors under Colonel Goe-
thals' control lead us to expect great
things in the way of lock construction
and even to hope that the canal may be
completed within six years.
During October, states the official re-
port, 1,S44.471 cubic yards of material
were taken from the canal. This is an
increase of more than % per cent over
the excavation for September, which
was also record breaking month. We
are told that the total rainfall in Oc-
tober amounted to Ill inches against
lilo inches in September and 11.99
inches In August. Octobers record,
says a Washington dispatch to the
New York Tribune, SURPRISES every
expectation entertained in Washing
ton, where 1t was supposed that In
September Colonel Goethals had at
tanned practically the maximum EN-
cheney possible with his force and I'M
