PAN|CS Of THE PAST

In 1887 we had one of the most
destructive panics of the century.
In 1857 we had another disaster
Gus panic. In 1873 we had panic
that brought wreck and ruin to
nearly all business interests. In
1878 we had panic of which many
of you need not be reminded The
Panic of 1887 occurred under the
Clay tariff averaging about p per
cent.
The Panic of 1857 occurred under
the Walker tatiff averaging Is per
cent.
The panic of 1878 came under
the Morrill, tariff which averaged
48 per cent.
The panic of 1898 occurred I'M
der the Mckinley tariff, which
averaged So per cent.
Here we find that two very dis
asterous panics came under the low
est tariffs since 1916, and also that
two terrible panics came under the
highest tariffs we ever had. This
proves that panics com under low
tariff and high tariffs. But no
living man, or dead one for that
matter, ever heard of or witnessed
a panic when the people had plenty
of money,

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER

THERE is strong and growing
demand with the population of
most every town of any size in the
state for a better form and system
of city government and the coming
session of the legislature will be
implored to amend the present law
governing cities on the Commission
plan. 1t is All undeniable fact that
everywhere city government is
costing entirely too much, there
appears to be too many leaks and
too many people standing around
with their hands so to speak in the
cities pocket, for the lack of the
proper system and control. The
people are not getting dollar for
dollar. There is too much incom-
potency, too MANY makeshifts, too
much patch-up for today only only
to be done tomorrow. 1t all leaves
the overburdened taxpayer believe
there is graft and charge the same.
whether that be true or not, and
all must admit that the present sys-
tenn is bad and if it can be bettered
it is up to the legislature to help
the people solve the problem, and
those but acquainted with the Com
mission plan declare it to be just
the thing the doctor ordered and
as the people want it, as before
stated, it is up to the legislature to
give it to them.
