shows washington with Masonic

Arbor Day Stamp Discussion
Philatelists who break into the
print are pickering back and forth
over the relative merits of the re-
cent Arbor Day issue. Not that
any of them find fault with the
appearance of the stamp. Quite
the opposite. But one states that
if the government Is going to OBJ
serve the Goth anniversary OF the
founding of Arbor Day In Nebraska
then 1t may be called upon to OBJ
serve the twenty-seventh annivers-
airy of some other event In another
state. Hardly that. 1t so hap
pened the 60th anniversary OF the
flrst Arbor Day very nearly coin
cjded with the Tooth anniversary
OF the birth of the Honorable j..
sterling Morton, father of the day.
1t was fitting to let Nebraska sell
the stamps first, because It was the
first state to observe Arbor Day.
Nebraska City was the former
home of the late Mr. Morton and
hence the first city. to sell the
stamps on his anniversary date.
This was no haphazard issuance
but as we'll planned as most OF

Weekly News Review.
With liquidation less in evidence each
day, the stock market in the last 1our
sessions of 1881 gave rather good ac-
count of itself. Although there was less
window dressing" than in the hnal day
of last year, most issues were somewnat
higher with special strength in the is
sues held extensively by investment
trusts. The actual movement OF the
market, as indicated by our price index
for 80 stocks. showed an increase OF l.3
points. rising from 632 on December "A
to CAS- on December 81.
In the bond market the general list
was fairly strong, while United States
Government issues were comparatively
weak. The most active and the strong
est group was the railroad, although in
dustrials and utilities participated in the
rising market in lesser degree.
Contrary to the normal seasonal
movement, automobile output last week
increased by about a thousand units,
due largely to production of new models.

yet no official statement has been made
regarding the new car.
Steel operations in the week ended
December % we're better than most of
the predictions. Production was at
slightly better than 20 per cent of ca
pacity according to Dow, Jones & Co.
This compares with shade under "a

estimated that January ingot produc--
tion will average around 81 per cent OF
capacity against 428 per cent in Janu-

Largely due to the closing down Of
many wells on Sunday, daily average
crude oil production declined I37 400
barrels 1t is hoped that this reduc-
ton. if it can be maintained, will
ward off a cut in crude oil prices, as
production recently has been larger
than demand.

more favorable comparison with the

so that some of them were quite Will

When some one raises the cry OF

Franklin Escher. there may be no fire,
but in the resulting panic score or

Fear, of all the human emotions, is
one of the most dangerous, and one OF
the most contagious. Some pretty bad
things have happened in this country
during the past couple Of years. Fears
of worse to come has been the result.
Gradually, inevitably, the contagion
has spread. The whole country to-
day is in the grip of fear.
Fear? Fear of what? Fear, for in
stance, that in spite of the four thou
sand millions of gold in the country
we are about to go off the gold basis.
Fear that something mysteriouSly re-
ferred to as q collapse is about to

juring up.
"All of which, and nothing else on
earth, is responsible for the prepoS-

prices prevailing today. Every one
'afraid'-and every one wanting to sell.
Every one afraid and nobody wanting
to buy.
Every one that is to say, except a
comparatively small class of people,
who, if they were in a theater and
somebody yelled Fire would take a
good look around to see if there really
were any fire before plungng out into
the crowd to get themselves trampled
to death.
ITO take a good look around in to-
days panic would be to see this:
That so much has been accom-
plished in the past couple of years in
the way Of putting our house in order
that there is not today, either in the
situation here or in the situation
abroad any single thing of any shape,
manner or kind to keep the country
from throwing off its coat, getting back
to work and making the same success
of its business as it has always made
in the past
Which goes for the foreign situa-
ton and the bank situation and the
railroad situation and all the other
real and alleged situations with which
frightened investment public has
ghost-danced itself into a state border
