the addition that a panic was due.
Well, the prediction didn’t come
true, but very near it.
Now, the question arises: Who
first made the remark that started
this influence lor panic? When any
sort of a crime has been committed
we first loAk fora motive. If a man
has liven murdered for revenge, we
find the contents of his pockets in
tact; if for plunder, his pockets are
emptied. If we concede that certain
moneyed interests — namely. Wall
Street— do not like the President,
or, rather, hate him, it seems rea
sonable that an attempt might be
made by these selfsame interests to
embarrass his Administration by
bringing on a panic, or by the same
means c.yise him to bow the knee.
The one instance would be revenge,
and (he other result in taming the
President, eitheit event being emi
nently satisfactory to an interest ffi
tagonistic to White House policies.
The outcome we find to be that
whoever projected this coup fell
between the stools. In other words,
the President has not been subdued,
and his pockets have not been found
turned inside out; but certain large
game is found under the deadfall
of its ow n setting.
There are no natural causes for a
panic visible to an observer one
thousand miles from the scene of
action; the cry of fire did not quite
stampede everybody; so, to find the
cause of w hat <licl happen, we must

For some time.back we have been Mouse, which we have just con
hearing of a prospective panic. One cluded in this paper, was novelized
large cities. While we cannot see
this play, we have had the privilege
of reading it. Following is what the
Salem Journal says regarding the
drama, which appeared there:
Charles Klein’s great play, The
Lion and the Mouse, which Henry
B. Harris will produce here at the
Graml opera house tonight, contains
elements of vital interest to all
classes of people. One, a portraiture
of the octopus of finance, who stern
in his altiture to all, even to his
wife and children, is relentless to
his enemy, treading under his golden
heel all those who oppose him or his
colossal schemes. The other is a
characterization of a young and
beautiful girl, the daughter of the
judge who is being driven to the
wall with impeachment and disgrace
as the result of his righteous decision
against the trusts. So that in The
Lion anil the Mouse Mr. Klein has
given us an idea of the influence of
money and politics in the ariairs of
the general public today. For the
interpretation of the most successful
of plays Henry B. Harris has
gathered together an exceptionally
fine cast and its advent here should
prove a most interesting one.
Hope for Reorganization.

John Day, president of the De
positors Association of the Oregon
Trust & Savings Bank, and the
others who are endeavoring to have
all creditors of the bank join in the
attempt to reopen the institution,
are encouraged to no small extent.
The treasurer of an up-state county
had $10,000 on deposit in the bank
at the time of its suspension. This
deposit was secured by bond of a
surety company’ which has tendered
its check to the County Commission
ers. The surety company, of course,
upon acceptance of their check, will
have the claim of the treasurer trans-
ferreo to it, and the bank officials
were informed that the surety com
pany was prepared to accept one-
half of the amount on deposit in
telephone bonds and the other half
in time certificates of depo sit.
Several representatives of out-of-
town depositors called at the bank
to obtain information regarding the
acceptance of bonds, and after the
plan was explained left with the
assurance that they would advise
their friends to take the bonds.
About $10,000 a week is’the average
of the past two or three weeks in
claims signed up, and the amount
outstanding is gradually growing
smaller, so that w’hen the few claims
not yet signed up are disposed of in
that matter something definite can
be announced as .0 date when the
bank is to be reopened.
Mr. Day says that with the re
sumption of cash payments by the
other banks, the outlook is very
favorable and will inspire confidence
in those who have not signed the
distribution papers, as the large ma
jority of depositors have done.

Vincent St. John has
gone to Denver to protest to the

The power of the union is broken
so far as Goldfield is concerned.
The fact that unionism has kept
the miners out of work for three
months of this year is not an argu
ment in its favor. The mining ex
perts on the newspapers say that the
trouble has just begun; the brokers
opine that the worst is over, that
