THE PASSING THUXHEK CLOUD
Most of the men and women who
are active In business and social af
fairs today have very vivid recollec
tions of the great depression which
affected this country from 1893 to
1898. They realize from actual ex
perience that the dull influence be
gan to be felt as early as 1889, Im
mediately after the failure of the
Barring Brothers in England and the
incidental cashing of American se
curities to meet the demands devel
oped by that failure. The recollec
tion of the dormant tendency, the
ever increasing and disturbing agita
tion which accompanied It, the anti
cipated but not less shocking panic
of '9 3, the long, gloomy and seem
ingly hopeless period of liquidation,
is even now Impressive. In those
days the people really doubted that
a brighter day would ever dawn
again. They had confidence In gloom
and faith In disaster. But the skies
cleared. Gold began to come out of
Alaska. Transportation companies
began to get busy. Confidence was
surprised iatp a revival and the de
pression fled like a long dreary night
before the rising sun of prosperity.
The notable feature of the pres
ent flurry a black thunder cloud
obscuring the sun in passing Is that
everybody has confidence in pros
perity and nobody has any iaith in
the duration of the present financial
disturbance. Already the thunder
cloud, sudden, swift ad black, hap
swept past, and the edge of prosper
ity Is developing Into a largo space,
so that everybody knows the full orb
will be shortly seen in all Its splen
dor. And everybody is ready for it,
because the recollection that the j
former night of depression came to
an end impresses everybody with thi
fact that good and bad times aro in
termittent. The lesson of the recent
tlurry is worth considering. The na
tion is growing rapidly. It is no
longer a now country and can never
again do business safely on haphaz
ard methods. It must get down t
tnfe conservative methods of bank
ing, railroading and business of
every sort. The expanding impor
tance of Orego'n requires, especially,
thnt she adopt the most up-to-date
systems. For Oregon is on the verge
of mightier changes than her people
imagine. Admitted Into the Union
In 1S57, she has developed more
slowly, considering her great re
sources, than any of the states. Okla
homa, whoso resources and attrac
tions aro not comparable with Ore
gon, has becomo a commonwealth of
startling proportions In ouo decade.
Population, feeling the pressure of
ICnstern crowding, moved Into that
Klato by the hundreds of thousands.
They occupied tho land In advance of
the railroads. Then camo tho rail
roads. But there is no Oklahoma
now to invito tho multitudes to her
virgin soil. Oregon alone blazes llk
a fixed stnr to attract tho homo
seoker to bettor unoccupied oppor
tunities than any stato ever before I
presented. Tho multitudes aro com- I
ing. They aro on tho way. Lot no
Oregoniau feel that disaster con
fronts this great state, Tho world
needs It and its resources. Tho thun
der cloud has passed and the sun
shines.
Even the great railroads were Im
pressed into service. Harrlman and
all the rest of the manipulators, who
had got the Instruments of industries
Into their hands turned them Into im
plements of torture to twist money
from the organized victim. The rail
roads cried cash, cash, when there
was no cash.
But the buccaneer may make his
victim dance under his fusillade of)
shots for a time. The victim's turn'
will come next. Whne the mourn
ful holidays are over and the east
begins to liquidate and pay its debts
to the west the west will be a little
more cautious with the east. She
will not trust the financial bucca
neers quite so much. She will not
be quite so dependent. She will do
many things for herself. Perhaps
she will seek to establish a financial
center of her own. Perhaps she will
take the hunch and build a few rail
roads for the east to operate on west
ern terms. But Independence and
liberty have no life except on a basis
of sense. Has the west sense enough
not to fall into the same old trap
again?
When the holidays are over and
the money comes marching back will
the west be once more anxious to
supply the coffers of insurance com
panies and institutions which the
"system" knows how to use? Or will
the millions of western money now
imprisoned in western vaults be in
vested where they are always safe
in the inexhaustible and even profit
able enterprises of the rich, develop
ing west? Probably the recent
lesson so hardly learned, will not go
unheeded. Money cannot be lost In
the honest development of the un
developed resources of Oregon. Coal,
the precious minerals, timber, 'rich
dairy and fruit lands, and real estate
are all better in Oregon and for Or
egon money than anything else in
the world. A few state railroads
could well be built with western
money and state bonds for such in
vestments would be safe and secure:
A state railroad owned but not oper
ated by the state, would help to solve
the problem of western independence.

mander Knights Templer, was pres
ent and adderssed the meeting. Mrs.
Bargelt, who had just returned
homo from an official trip through
the state as Worthy Grand Matron,
was also present and told of her work
during the two months she was ab
sent. Games, music and dancing
made up tho order of the entertainment.
