This cabin la located on the old Oregon-California atate road. near Grants Paaa.

"A auch a topping: place It shel tered several prominent people, among them being President and Mrs. Hayea, Mark Twain and General Joseph Lane. In this cabin, also, waa organised the first Methodist conference of the South ern Oregon district. Tills was ne of the very first religious organization of state-wide scope perfected in Oregon. This event occurred almost half a cen-l tury ago,' and moat of. the faithful preacher and religious workers who took part have long sine gone to their great reward.

Walker charged that panic In thl country are caused mainly by the dis trust of Individual banks for each other, saying: "The great national danger I that the panic may cause national ruin. But what If a panic A widespread fear without cause. In moat - countries financial panic is caused by fear on . the part of those who are not a part of the national finance who are not banker and such. But tn the United 8ttes, whoever (may start the panic, those who accentuate It most are the thousand of Individual bank by their distrust of each . other.

'And it is not the fear of the fall n re of banks, but the fear of the disap pearance of currency, which aggra vates panics and bring about disaster and terrible reduction in values. To sum it up, it would appear that the same elements which in the united Btates cause panics of the most ruin ous character .would .not be apt to cause panic at all In better remitted countries. .In .such "other countries, firstly, the' reserved cash would be In stantly available; secondly, the banks would not be llkelv to fear one another. but -would cohere in meeting any pan icky feeling on -the part of the public; thirdly, - the newer of re-dlseounttna- or ui issuing clearing nouse certificates would need to be used to a. small degree If only the demands of the public had to be met and not the demand of In. dividual bank; fourthly, with these things assured and a reasonably flex ible currency nor stonnaae of currency payments would be likely to arise." xewis JS.
