I . . , . mm The following, taken from the leading: newspapers of Entrland will be interesting to show the opinion, as viewed from a dis tance, of the recent financial flurry in New York and the al leged cause thereof: The London Economist says: 1 his is one of the worst experiences within the history of Wall Street, but no permanent in jury to American prosperity is likely to result from the inci dent. It is a moral rather than I a monetary cause which they) point out as underlying the dis turbance, and they suggest a re- form of American banking laws as clearly called for. What some newspapers have called "the Roosevelt Panic" not a single English Journal holds the Presi dent of the United States re sponsible for. The alleged ex ploitation of seme New York banks by unscrupulos syndicates is spoken of by the London Econo mist as largely the cause of the difficulty and it is quite clear that, whether the course of con duct alleged has or has not been engaged in, the American sys-( tem of banking, and the laxness both of theiaw and of its admin-! istration in New York, rendered the practice' at least quite pos sible." The London Times says: "Mr. Roosevelt has been impudently slandered by those who attribute the panic to his mistakes. As a matter of fact the course which he has taken was actually nec essary if the future credit of the country is to be preserved. Ac cording to some interested parties, the President is to blame for having vigorously called at tention to the reckless and sel fish proceedings of individuals and corporations, and for having thus, it is impudently asserted, caused all the trouble; but well- wishers to the United States are net likely to take that view, and will applaud him for having faced so boldly a powerful body of able men who have been too much accustomed to have their own way, regardless of public welfare and public rights. No one need fear for the economic future of the United States merely because a man has been found who is courageous enough to tell the people he serves that some of their business practices are wrong and dangerous." The London Evening Standard and St. James Gazette says "For our part we can not believe that Mr. Roosevelt can he held responsible. From the moment when the antitrust campaign of democracy was answered by the antitrust campaign of republican ism a breach in the walls of 'Bossism' was inevitable? In the end good must come of al this trouble, though the just must suffer with the unjust." The London Spectator says "Though there is much confus ion and perturbation in New York, and though a good many people, rich and poor, will loose a great deal of money, there is not the slightest cause for any thing approaching international anxiety. Indeed, the net result, as far as the public is concerned, can be summed up as follows: 'Many people will have to sell what are actually valuable stocks at a great sacrifice, and many other people for a week or two will be able to pick up those val uable stocks at excellent bargains- There has been no actual destruction of wealth, and therefore no diminution of the volume of property but merely the end of a financial dream. A large number of people in New York are finding they sre .1 mO-sSm :Vk - I ill rmmm iii Another Departure at the Progressive Store We are going to stimulate Saturday Night Shopping in this City as it was never stimulated before.

M If LAW &SQT, QUALITY STORE. not really as rich as they thought they were, but just as the dream of prosperity was largely unreal, so to a great extent the dream of ruin is unreal. Or again just as the dream of advantage went for a time too far, so the dream of disadvantage has also gone too far and things are not nearly as bad as they seem. Those who accuse rresiaent JKooseveit ot causing the panic are thus scath ingly dealt with: "With a hardi hood which, if the matter was not so serious, might be describ ed as comic, a section of the great millionaires and financial kings, when thus detected in malpractices, have turned upon the President and those who sup port him, and blamed them for declaring that the law of the and must be enforced as sternly against great capitalists as against the petty trader. Mr. Roosevelt's policy, they assert, is shaking the very foundations of the national credit and drying up the sources of industry. The accusation is peculiarly im pudent. The men who have shaken the credit of the nation are not those who have exposed tbe misdeeds but those who have 1 to the law but because of the rev elation of repeated and glaring breaches of the law, that public confidence in the business methods of so many great com mercial and financial undertak' ings has been destroyed. If a panic were to take place, owing to an enormous number of un punished burglaries, what should we think if the burglars lectured the police authorities on having provoked the panic by their policy of prosecution, and by their reckless use of the evidence in regard to the doings of the criminals? Would they not be told that if the burglars would give up burglary ' there would be1 no need of prosecutions, and. no fear of a panic?" THANKSGIVING PRO CLA MA 2702V. Once again the season of the year has eome when in accord ance with the custom of our fore fathers for generations past, the President appoints a day as the special occasion for all of our people to give praise and Thanks giving to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe. During the past year we nave oeen iree irom done them. It is not because Mr. famine, from pestilence, from Roosvelt has demanded obedience j War. We are at peace with all the rest of mankind. Our natural resources are at least as great as those of any other nation. We believe that in abil ity to develop and take advan tage of the resources, the aver age man of this nation stands at least as high as the average man of any other. Nowhere else m the world is there such an opportunity for a free people to develop, to the fullest extent, all its powers of body, of mind, and of that which stands above both body and mind character. a great democracy 4iKe ours, a democracy based upon the principles of orderly liberty, can be perpetuated only if in the hearts of the ordinary citizen there dwells a keen sense of right eousness and justice. This sub stantially, is thepreamble of this splendid proclamation. Any thing the President writes or ap proves irust be fundamental to the subject in hand. He is an alytic and forceful. He knows what it requires to make a good average citizen. His motto is "Justice for all, high or low, and favors for nobody." We should rejoice because of the greatness of our nation, and be thankful that we have such a man at the head of it as Theo dore Roosevelt. STOP THE STRENUOUS LIFE Weakens the Tissues ana Lessens Organic Vitality. Tbe streeB and strain of tbe strenuous Hie in both city and country tends to wards stomach tronblea. Five people suffer today where one did ten years ago with eick headache, dizzi ness, flatulence, distress after' eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nervous ness, sleeplessness and the many other symptoms of indigestion. All who are suffering with stomach treubies, and that means at least two out of three in Corvallis and other towns, should use Mi-o-na stomach tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet elective; nothing else can be so thoroughly relied upon to relieve all troubles from indiges tion as Mi-o-na. It is not a mere digestive taken after the food is eaten, but a true tonic, stimu. lant and strengthener for tbe muscular walls of the stomach, increasing the flow of digestive fluids and putting the stom ach into such condition tbat it does the work Nature expects of it So reliable is Mi-o-na in its curative action that Graham & Wells, with every 50-cent box they sell, give a guarantee to refund the money, nnless tbe remdy does all that is claimed for it.
