Hail it not been for the large lx »dies of govern ment land to furnish homes for the returned soldiers, the financial col- I a ( mm * would almost have destroyed the nation. With the nation finan cially in the grip of Wall street the wonder is that conditions were not worse than they were. Some of the older men who passed through those times and suff« red the losses for which they were in no wise to blame, think like conditions will prevail after the present war. The Tribune does not think surh will be the case While we do not pose as a financial wiseacre we may, like you, form an opinion baaed upon conditions at the present day as com pared with the days following the Civil war. Primarily we have had no decline in the value of our currency as com pared with gold. The greenback which declined to lesa than half the value of gold in Civil war days, is today worth its face in gold. That is to say the regional bank notes have supplied the place of green backs. Hence there will be no long struggle to resume specie payment which required ten years to reach after the Civil war. While there is sure to be a decline from the present war-boosted prices for both products and labor, the de cline will not be nearly so great as after the Civil war, not sufficient al least to create a panic as in 1873. The decline in prices will lie very gradual. Indeed England and Erance and Italy and Belgium, to say noth ing about the demands of other na tions. will want great quantities of our products of the farm and our factories. In Belgium and northern Erance they will have to replace the machinery of which they have been robbed by the Huns before they can begin manufacturing. In the mean time they too will have to be sup plied largely from the shops and fields of the United States. The enthusiasm with which the allied nations celebrated our inde pendence day is evidence that the greatest admiration and good will exists among them all for the United States ami especially the Yanke«- soldier in Erance. Thia good will will not die with the end of the war. It will last for all time; for ail of them- nations now understand the purposes and principles of the Yan kee nation as never before. They can now ase bow utterly unselfish Scio Meat Market world for all lime Another moat important feature is: instead of Wall str«*ct and other banks throughout th*» nation Iwing the creditors of th«* government, draining a large part of the earn ings of the people, a» resulted after the Civil war, we. the people are the creditors. The#government, which is the people, will (my the maturing interest to WC, th«- people Insteiul the l»anker sitting in his uitholstcred armchair dipping coupons w«- will witness the unusual in that the horny-hande«l farmer, mechanic an<l tradesman will be the dippers in chief. Even our returned soldiers will practice the use of the dipping shears to some extent. So it can he seen that <>ur govern ment of today is guarding against the things which brought <»n th«- hard times after the Civil war ami the confidence of the people was never so firmly fix«M in the ability of our president and congress as it is today, nor as firmly united in its support. Therefore we have reason to expect many years of universal prosperity am<»ng the people and that the old time financial |>anic which brought ruin to thousands, is • matter of history. WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY? Our legislature enacts*! a law creating an emergency board whose particular province is when an emer gency expenditure is asked for. to examine into matters and see if an emergency is merited Ix-forr order ing the expenditure allowed. For instance, the legislature makes an appropriation of money deemed sufficient for the support of our state hospital for the insane for two years, supposing conditions, prices, etc., shall continue normal. But suppose conditions change as has lx*«-n the case since the legislature adjourned? This emergency Ixtard can step in as representative of the legislature and order the state treas urer to honor a sufficient draft to cover the emergency which the leg islature could not anticipate when th«' regular appropriation was made This is the only power granted by the legislature to the emergency board. The board <»f cootrol, comcxwd of the governor, ascretarv of slat* aad vide a way in which these unauthor ised hangers nn can lie |>aid and by straining -a law oxpecta to get a measure on the (»allot to provide for the expense. The initiatory bill faileai for luck of signatures. But our accommodating attorney general has found a law which by a strained interpretation will authorize tin- measure submitted to the people, Il won't do, gentlemen. The people ar«- not fools. While they are willing to dig down deep in their (Mickets for money with which to win the war. they rightfully ref um * to stand for this unnecessary graft, They would vote money with which to buy lilM-rty bon«!» or war aaving stamp» but not for anex|M-nm* which need n«»t have been incurred. The slate officials who are re»t*>mnble for the employrmnt of these men should be required to |>a> them from their iM-rsonal means. Governor Withvcuml»e will find his state p>- lice a sort of Banquo's ghost when he goes campaigning next fall. His latest argument to justify the fVUO,- I h ) o he wants to take from the tax payers* (rockets is the fear of a for eign invasion on the Pacific coast If he could have a Hun U-boat sink a ship or two <>IT the mouth of tire Columbia river, he might persuade the people to come through with this unnectssary tax. but not other wise. governor. SENATOR WALTER M. PIERCE If everv man and woman could m««**t and talk with Senator Walter M. Pierce there is small doubt but what he would lie the next governor of Oregon. The senator was in Scio a few hours last week and ma«!e a splendul impression with the people whom he met. The Tribune man had perhaps a better <>p|n>rtunity to form an opinion of Senator Here* as we en joyed the most of Wednesday after- no«>n in his c<»ni|>any. Mr. Pierce, while probably 55 years of age. seems in the prime of a vigorous manhotwi. Being one of Union county *s big wh«*at growers and stockmen his out door life gives a hearty and cheerful appearance He is a versatile companionable man well versed in the sphere of polities; is a loyal American citixen ready to do any thing required to win U m war. of partisan bias but brim full of patriotism.
