The legal holidays which have prevails! in tbi- stutt f ir thn paot fix
weeks are to end next Saturday, according to a tt:itt;;iiet isnnd by
Governor Chanilierlain. The governor believes that the Im-ine? iu
ttreBts of the State demand that the holiday end, and that the banks
re in such financial condition that they ean protect themselves with
.out the aid of legal holidays The governor warns the people, however,
that if there is any attempt to raid the 'mnks and tie up business by
means of attachment suits that he will immediately declare additional
holidays and continue to do so un il such time as the people are will
ing to act sensibly in the premises The people of Wallowa county
fi lould take a reasorablo view of the situation and nut allow then 8 Ives
to be stampeded into making an unnecessary raid upon the banks and
the legitimate business interests of the county. There is not a bank in
this county, probably not one in the state, but what is sound and sol-
vent, and can liquidate every uoiiur 01 its indebtedness it given.
.sufficient time to call in its outstanding securities. There is not' a
bank in the county, probably not one in the state, that, could hind out
to its depositors on short notice dollar for dollar of its deposits. The
thing for everybody to do is to go quietly on with the biiciness of t e
country having faith in their fellow men and realizing that the matter
is but temporary and lhat it will ati just itself in the couise of a few
months. Creditors should be as lenient as possible with their debtors
and debtors should be as prompt in meeting their obligations as they
can under the adverse circumstances. Any other course will work
great hardship upon all the people and cause the loss and sacrifice of
valuable property interests. It is a time to bear and forbear.
