A SURPLUS OF $s,OOO,OOO.

On August 5 the deficit in cash
below reserve requirements IN the
New York banks was more than $43,.
100000. Last week ended with a
surplus above requirements of $S,-
100000. The tide turned some time
ago. For more than two weeks the
better tone in the financial world has
been marked by all observers, even
the pessimists.
The financial soundness of the
United States thus receives new DEM
onstration. We have had two search
ing tests of it during the past twelve
months-the Claflin failure and the
European war. The first was endur-
ed without ripple on the surface.
The war created conditions for
which there was no precedent 10
have the entire machinery of ex-
change of money and goods OF a
world paralyzed at a stroke was
thing which may have been imagined
in the past, but nothing like it was
recorded on the pages of financial
experience. But the past ninety days
have seen trade in securities and in
cotton utterly at standstill, Eng
land and France suspending the pay
ment of all debts and ordinary traffic
between nations greatly impaired or
wholly suspended.
In the face of all this, confidence
has been maintained in the United
States and today shows a gain in the
hank reserves of our principal finan-
cial center of more than $50, 100000
above the lowest point. 1t seems high
ly probable that when Thanksgiving
comes, in six weeks or whereabouts,
Our financiers and merchants will be
able to join in the Doxology with a
GOOD heart and then sit down to tur-
key with appetities up to the average
for the ten-year period.-St. Louis

We organize our city, county and state government all right, and we deputize men to look af- ter our public affairs, but there we stop. When 1t comes to the highly necessary matter of su- pervising, we are in identically the same position as the mer- chant or banker who would court ruin by leaving the conduct of his business to subordinates with out ever going near his office, is- suing an order or looking at his books. Lack of supervision is what's wrong with our script and our treasury and cur taxes. Supervision" (super-meaning over, and vision-seeing) has the same shade of meaning as over seeing. our more common word. When we start looking over our public affairs instead of over- looking them, everybody will be- gin to feel ethe effects of more efficient government.
