Our Gold Supply.

No wonder credit is easier in this
country, and the gold that went into
hiding at the outbreak Of war is flow
ing through its customary channels
again. The danger of our gold being
drained off to Europe is now past.
Even the gold pool" formed by New
York bankers, which sent large guam
titles of gold to Toronto for European
creditors to draw on. is likely to find
its way back in the course of a few
months.
If there is to be any actual exchange
of gold, it will be in the form OF
European gold flowing to America
We still owe the Old World couple
of hundred million dollars, but we are
going to pay it back in merchandise
not money. The payment has started,
and is proceeding with unexpected
rapidity. The s60,000,000 trade bal
ance in our favor last month means
the cancellation of precisely that much
of our foreign obligations. There may
be bigger balances than that in sue
ceeding months, as the belligerent ma
lions increase their purchases in this
country. We are selling much and
buying little.
The deprivation Of customary i'm
ports, too, though inconvenient for a
time, on the whole, is proving to be
blessing in disguise. 1t means the
stimulation q AlacricaA industries and
the supplying OF cur own domestic
market more completely than ever be-
fore.
The money that We keep at home,
and the money we gain from Europe
as her indebtedness to US piles up,
will make greater war chest" for
the development of our industries and
the extension of our commerce.

Mr.. Cannon is typical of two things.

typical of this bad old time, he is
typical Of the mysterious recrudes-
cence of political barbarism manifest
ed TO some degree throughout the
country in the recent election.
The election would have lost much
of its point had Mr.. Cannon been de-
feated. Pennsylvania. by its "splen-
did vindication" of Boies Penrose, set
the example for the other reactionary
regions. 1t was only fair that the
ex.high priest Of standpatism be hon
ored at a time when lesser standpat-
tiers everywhere reared their heads
from the tombs in which they had
been laid away by the forces of en-.
lightenment and progress.
1t may be hoped. and it is confident
ly expected by many observers, that
the present flareup of reaction is mere

Boost the Farmer.

The suggestion of President Mumaw
of the Chamber of Commerce to es-
tablish a Farmers Exchange in Aber-
deem, where Chehalis county produce
would be sold, under an absolute guar
antee that the goods are just as repre-
scented, is worthy of serious considera.
ton by both farmers and consumers as
we'll as business men of the city.
Complaints are numerous Of farm
ers bringing produce to Aberdeen that
they were unable to sell, while the
stores were filled with similar goods
from California and Oregon. Of course
this is wrong state of affairs as we'll
as short-sighted business policy and
should be altered.
This condition can only be speedily
changed by the hearty cooperation
of the farmers, merchants and con-
sumers. 1t is only of very recent
years that any appreciate amount of
farm produce was raised for this
market, and the merchants had to de-
pend upon commission houses in San
Francisco, Seattle and Portland for
their supplies. To those houses they
could send their orders every day and
be sure of getting just what and as
much as their trade demanded, which
was billed them on 80 days time.
The merchant must be assured of
a constant supply to meet his needs
wherever he trades, and this assur-
ance has so far been difficult to Sc
cure from the farmers. The estab-
lishment of an exchange would rem
edy this, if the farmers will cooper
ate to the extent of putting up their
goods in modern packages so as to
make them slightly to the housewife.
and guarantee them. The merchant
could then know from the exchange
Just what he could expect for the fol.
lowing day and act accordingly.
With this established, the Herald
believes the consumers would gladly
join with the movement and boost for
home grown produce, knowing that
they as well as the merchant might
again get sight Of the dollar spent at
home while that sent to California
and Oregon rarely comes back.

of great public spirit in which this
ground was eloquently taken. His
conclusion from what he had OBJ

Upward Trend in eusiness.

1T always is darkest Just before
dawn" says an old proverb. The say.
ing applies to the present conditions
Of business and industry in the Uni.
ted States.
During the three months immediate
1y following the outbreak Of the war
the stoppage of the ordinary inter
change OF commodities between Eu-
rope and the United States made for
a degree of darkness in American bus
mess.
American conditions in comparison
with those of Europe have remained
bright during the summer and au-
tumn. Now, in the judgment of COM
petent and honest observers all over
the country, they are improving rap
idly. In some branches of industry
not only are the prospects promising,
but there already is actual prosperity.
These gains can not be confined to
these particular industries, but in less
degree and indirectly spread to and
are shared by all industries that have
to do with those industries benefited
by the war.
The effect of the improvement is
seen in the balance of trade between
this country and the European coun.
tries. On August the United States
had heavy debts abroad, and we had
excuse for anxiety as to how we
should be able to square the account
That source of worry is now removed
An August excess of s20,000,000 of i'm
ports over exports has been changed
to an October excess of approximately
s60,000,000 of exports over imports
Our sales of wheat to Europe have
been unprecedented in volume and
profitable in price. Even cotton has
begun to cross the ocean again. In
almost every quarter there not only IL
a markedly hopeful feeling, but there
are solid reasons for hopefulness.
The Wall Street Journal reports
lone of the prominent leaders OF
American finance" as making these
statements:
Prices on New street for secur.
tiles are rising. The recovery in
United States Steel is particularly
encouraging. Conditions are mend.
ing rapidly and should soon ap-
proximate the normal. The break
in foreign exchange marks the
end of export of our gold. The de-
cline is owing to the large increase
