Crops Sure 10 Add Greatly

play More Confidence
BY Henry ciews.

New York, Aug. 12.74The danger OF
y monetary crisis this coming autumn
has passed. For this 'Welcome reas
surance Secretary McAdoo is chiefly
responsible. By making it plain or
repeated occasions that the treasury
would do its utmost to relieve none
tary pressure when crop and trade
demands begin, he materially light
ened the burden of the banks and
enabled them to lend with far greater
freedom than was dreamed of; thus
averting a blockade Of the wheels OF
commerce at the critical season when
they are invariably running at high
speed.
His latest offer to put out S. 0,000.-
900 of treasury funds available for
bank reserves adds. immensely to the
loaning abilities Of the national
banks, especially in case of the
smaller country institutions which ara
required to carry only Is per cent
of reserves.
1t is estimated that by this means
the credit facilities of the country will
be expanded about $500, 900. 900 to
$500. 900, the effect Of which is
already seen in easier rates for time
money. a better demand for CONNER
cial paper and a general revival of
confidence in banking circles.
Bankers Must Be Thanked.
Of course. much credit for the
present Improvement must also be
attributed to the banking community
for their persistent application of the
brakes. In consequence there has
been a general liquidation and con.
traction that is proving wholesome.
There has been a decided stoppage
placed upon all imprudent enter
prises. The demand for new capital
which threatened to bring on a seri-
Gus crisis has been powerfully re-
strained for good; and the net new
issues for July and August will, show
a large decline compared with previ-
Gus years. In brief, the financial
world has been taking the rest cure

COLONEL IUTll
Tells QF "TRIP
To The Orient
Thinks That Trip Across Pa.
CIfic 10 jim nin's Steamer
q Great Outing

While In Bismarck the other day,
On being asked where he had travelled
on his recent trip and how he had
enjoyed it, Col, Tuttle of Dawson
expressed himself as having had a
very delightful voyage, both over
across the Pacific and while in the
Orient. and what was freshest in his
memory, home by the steamship min
n%esota," owned by the Great North
ern railroad, or more Familiarity
speaking, the Jim Hill Line"
He says that anyone at all prone
to seasickness and having occasion
10 cross the Pacific should, by all
means, take passage on this boat, as
1t is practically speaking, as steady
as a house, as palatial as a palace.
and as enjoyable as the best hotel In
the country. In fact, II n could
spend two weeks doing nothing de-
lightfully, they could do it on this
boat. However, he says that to a man
who has been more or less busy all
his life a month spent In crossing
the ocean two ways seems while you
are doing so as a month wholly
thrown away. But when you come to
realize that you cannot see the ORR
ent without taking two weeks to get
there and then cannot get home with
out taking two weeks more, they both
seem fully worth while.
He went as far south as Manila.
which Is over 5000 miles from here
and situated only Is degrees north of
the equator, and found very hot
w~eather-in fact, says he wouldn't
trade a week Of the coolest weather
he has ever experienced In North Da-
kota for a day of the hot weather

they had while he was there, unless
he could get a bonus on the trade.
He is fully satisfied not only that
the Philippines are in no condition
to govern themselves now. but more
than that. that they will not be in
1920. and that what agitation is made
in Manila and the islands for Filipino
independence is entirely by people
who expect to pick the plums of Office
and graft.
In China he visited Hong Kong and
Canton. When it is IL o'clock, noon,
in Bismarck it is half-past one, a. m.
in these places, making a difference
of 1912 hours in time. From there
he came northward to Shanghai, from
where he went by rail. via Nankinf1f.
and Tien Sin to Pekin. the capital
city of the latest created republic.
s~elf-governed CO people. The new
republic of China. The congress of
this republic was in session while he
was there and, had. and have been
ever since and up to the present time
has virtually accomplished nothing.
They did succeed. in the course Of
two weeks. in electing a speaker and
a F. vice speaker, but none of them
seem to understand anything Of par
liamentary rules, as we know them.
and when a half dozen want to speak
at once the one who can talk the
loudest and most vigorously holds the
floor until the others quit.
Prom Pekin the colonel, returning
by Tien Sien, started northward.
spending a night at Shanhaikwan,
where the great wall of China starts
at its eastern or sea end and extends
westward 1850 miles straight inland.
This wall has been standing there
since the latter part of the 14th cen
fury, and therefore is over 800 years
old. It is 50 feet high, q, feet thick
and is faced with granite blocks, with
towers at frequent intervals. 1t runs
straight away, going up and down
mountain sides without reflections.
Thence the colonel travelled on
still northward to Mukden, which is
in Manchuria. and there went over the
battlefield where the Russians and
Japs had one OF their greatest. bat
tles-in fact, all around Mukden was
at that time one great battlefield.
We all remember that 1000 soldiers
were reported to have been killed in
this battle. From Mukden he trav-
eled southerly down through the pen
insula of Korea, stopping for a few
days at the capital. Seoul. The Jap
anese own or control Korea and no
Korean is allowed. under any circum-
stances. to own or have a firearn OF
any kind or to leave Korea for any
other country except Japan. From
Fusan, Korea, he landed in Japan at
its southwest extremity, at Shimina-
sake, where he spent over a month
among the people who are supposed
to be 50 exercised about the Califor-
MIA land bill. No American can buy
and get title to any land In Japan
and yet we are told that the fate OF
the world (!) depends on whether
the Japanese may or may not own
land in America.
The Japanese have gore beyond

cannot afford to amplify ON Amerl-

the Pacific for the press is "a cents

you realize that the Japanese have
always been a people who have made
much of small things, you may readi-
~ imagine that a. bunch of daily pa
pers agitating the California land
question can very easily keep them
quite excited on the question.
He believes that every American
born citizen, no matter to what coun.
try of the globe he may travel, is al
ways delighted to see his native land
and get his feet once more upon its
shores. He says it is plain that the
good old United States is the best
country in the world, because the peo-
pie of every nation under the sun
leave their homes to come here to
live, and having once lived here sell.

So, when he stepped off the boat
at Seattle he said, ut. certainly looks
good to me-" Having been looking at
the cherry blossoms, the wisteria and
the iris of Japan, he says he had al.
most forgotten how beautiful a rose
vas until on landing In Seattle, he
found SO many front yards Of houses
and bungalows literally full of then
great, big double balls of red, pink
and white beauties. and never in all
his life saw so many of them as
graces that town in early summer.
This left a most agreeable recollec.
ton of Seattle, presumably good for
all time. AS he journeved eastward
toward his own state there was ever

been partially discounted. August is

ing crops, and more Or less deteriora-
ton Is the rule. During the past week
considerable injury has been reported
to our two largest crops-corn and
cotton
AS to wheat we are already as
sured OF a bumper crop of 75O.00O.O 900
bushels. + ~tAif"7s @ es'.f.- '-f
The injury to the cotton crop has
not been definitely ascertained. and
the probabilities still remain for a
large yield in view Of an increased
acreage and satisfactory general av
erage condition. While early optimis.
tic expectations regarding the har-
vest may have been somewhat modi-
fed. there is no reason to anticipate
any serious injury and the losses In
yield are quite likely to be compen.
stated for by higher prices. The coun'
try is almost sure to see between
eight and nine billions of new wealth
created on the farms, and this is a
big factor in national prosperity.
Grain Movement Liberia!
A very satisfactory feature not
sufficiently appreciated is the unu.
sually liberal grain movement of the
past few weeks. This has enabled
the farmers to pay their loans, thus
strengthening the banks and prOvid'
ing the railroads with a heavy amount
OF profitable traffic, also furnishing
an important increase in our mer.
chandise exports at this time.
Our credit abroad is excellent and
steadily improving. Foreign com
merce continues on an unprecedented
scale, which latter is shown by the
fact that during the fiscal year our
exports rose to $2.465. 900. 900. leaving
a balance in our favor of $685. 00. 900.
This is a remarkable record. and can.
not but powerfully tend to increase
