Business.

Everybody wants a revival of bust
ness confidence. and everybody should
work to that end. But it is idle, if
not dangerous. to predict tha. end for
an early day.
Part of the present want of conf
dence proceeds from the failure of
prophets who have been exercising
themselves on the subject. They were
certain last spring that as soon as the
tariff was out of the way business
would boom again. But they were
wrong.
They then turned to the currency,
and attributed the uneasiness in bust
ness circles to that question. They
were certain that the mere announce
nnent of the passage of new currency
law-never mind about the time neces-
sary to put it into operation-would
put an end to all suspense and insure
full pulse again. But they were
wrong. We have the new law. but
business is uneasy as to what it will
show in action.
NOW the prophets are working the
trust question. AS soon as that is out
of the way nothing then can longer
disturb the business world. Every
1t would be happiness to believe
this, but the record does not promise
it, and the record cannot be safely
ignored.
AS soon as Congress adjourns the
congressional campaigns. will begin in
dead earnest, and these three ques-
tions-the tariff, the currency and the
trusts-will all come up again. In
every congressional district in the
country the republicans and the bull
moosers will be condemning what the
democrats have done, and promising
to undo it if intrusted with power.
Will business take no notice of that?
On the contrary, it is likely to be very
much interested in the controversy.
And if the republicans win, will their
success assure the business world? Not
at once. In 1S94-twenty years ago-the
republicans carried the House while
all business was depressed to the
limit, but the depression continued
nearly three years longer. 1t was not
until the Cleveland hoodoo had passed
completely from the scene that bust
ness recovered its breath, Strengthened
up. and resumed work at the old
stands. The mere promise of the res
toration of the republicans to full
power by the elections of 1894 did not
suffice. Before capital would venture
out again, the promise had to be full
Allied, and that was not done until No
vember, 1896.
What is called politics is always with
us. Nor should we wish or try to
shake it IF. And just now we are,
and inevitably for sometime to come
will continue, in the thick of politics,
and in the carrying out of a political
program: and business must take heed,
not only of one. but of all the features
of that program. 1t is just as well to
look the situation squarely in the face

New York Loan Sharks.

From the New York World
Tho legislature is dealing with the mat
ter of extending to private savings banks
the protection to small depositors which
the state requires Of savings banks which
are not private. Gov. Glynn now forces
,,pon its attention the equally important
matter Of stopping the extortions Of
pawnbrokers and loan sharks from their
victims. We have had legislation before
In protested abatement Of this public
evil and as late as last year. but it is
now conceded, says the governor. that
this latest law merely legalizes the
very evils 1t sought to eliminate The
problem should be open to easy solution.
Il is merely a question of providing a
public supervision, under adequate pen
alties. which will recognize the small
loan business as legitimate and confine
its charges to a reasonable return on the
money employed. Is this too much for
the Albany lawmakers? Gov. Glynn

The New Parliamentarian.

My Uncle Jim is much esteemed
For parliamentary brightness.
His rhetoric has often CLEANED
With powerful politeness.
His methods positive though bland
No longer waken pity
When he. with accents of command,
Sends things to committee.
No more we dwell in sweet content,
Regarding him as able
To claim unanimous consent
And lay bills on the table.
The times are swift and things are done
In ways no doubt much wiser.
My Uncle Jim just grabs a gun
And all hands say, AYE, aye, SIR.
