A MEETING WELL WORTH
SEEING

Editorial Gossip in Rutland Herald)
J did not witness the historic sight
but the reports of Squire Dunnett's
reception of General Wood agree in
describing it as some occasion. The
Squire was dressing by leisurely
stages and breakfasting in his room.
" len he doomed forth "Come in
and the General was introduced to
cone Of your delegates" Alexander
swallowed spoonful of oatmeal and
said he was pleased.
The combination of the Squire
dress shirt, pajamas and his well
known courtly manner, displayed in
relief against ;he Generals urbanity,
entirely surrounded by a service uni
folm, must have been something
worth seeing.
But let US no. illusionize ourselves
about any rude shock to the Generals
social conventions. Leonard Wood
knows men-in or out of bahamas
and he may be mighty plad. along
lieut. the fourth or fifth ballot, that
he has an Alexander Dunnett on the
delegation.

mcnt in which he served and which
he left, and are doing so because, like
him they cannot afford to remain in
it, In the New York City Post Office,
for example, men are resigning at
the rate of hundred month.
The reason for these numerous
RESERVATIONS is uniform. 1t is found in
the low rate of nav. The men get, in
the regular service, only from $1,000
to ST $50 6, ,car,--or, saw half as
much as oidina'"- mechanics, THOUGH
they generally have to work more
hours than the latter, and keep at
work more steadily. But the outra-
geous scandal of it is that the "tem-
porary" political appointecs receive
higher pay than the REGULARS"
whose place they take. A more un-
lust arrangement than that it would
be difficult to devise or one, we may
add more characteristic Of the pres
ent head of the Postoflice Depart

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK

1t is anybody's guess to forecast
business conditions for the next few
years. There are no parallels or pre-
cedents fitting the present case. The
world has not been so upset since the
Napoleonic wars. The troubles fol-
lowing the Civil war were relatively
insignificant, since thew affected our
country only.
The situation affected more than
ever by psychological conditions, by
the mental altitude Of the people.
Abnormal conditions cannot pass,
while abormnal IDEAS are entertained
by great masses of people.
Specifically the country Is enjoy
ing great prosperity, with everybody
working, factories hustling. Never
theless the stock market has been
registering the opinion of eXeprt OBJ
servers that this prosperi'-- is not
sound and normal.
The scarcity of ca'ital is a dom
mating factor. At present high costs
of material and labor, it takes a great
deal more money to finance any kind
of enterprise. Business men who for
mally paid 5 ~nr cent for money, now
pay 7 per cent Man projects have
been held up because it would be ne
cessary to s to 10 per cent to get
cessary 10 pay to 10 per cent to get
the necessary capital The railroads
are unable to secure the funds need
ed to buy the freight cars that abso-
lutely must be supplied to transport
The countly,,s products.
There is a limit to the rate of in
terest that business men will pay for
their funds. If you charge 8 to 10
cent for loans they could former
~ have for five, lot of them will
curtail their operations rather than
pay such exorbitant rates. Facing The
possibility of a falling market, they
will question whether they can make
enough on their sales to pay my
thing more than interest on the mon
CIV they must borrow.
