Dank of England considerably relfeed the financial world. Now, liowcxer, that n mid is bcina made on its pld Mipplics by the continent of Euroe, Hie bank of KnInnd has found it necessary to take protective measures. Something like $o,000,000 in gold went out yesterday, while France look practically tho whole of the iC),(IOO,000 whfeh nrrived Tuesday from South Afriea, and nithottgh i?l.",000,000 5-! comiiie from New York to pay for j-ccurities Hold re cently, thfc Mint can hardly arrive in time to off-ct any further continen tal demands. .Absolute gloom prevailed today on the lork exchange. Yesterday' crop of failures and the fact that there was no improvement in 111" European crisis had a most depres, ing effect. Quotntioue were some what tinder yesterdaj', figures, but weru purely nominal, and what little ImsitieSH wits dune wan a matter of prolonged negotiation. The hammer, whoo tapping on !hs dexk nnnotiiifi'H failures on tho stock exchange, was heard early today when the Derenburg company, with large conliueufal conuectfoiM, an'- iiouneed Hint it wiw unable to meet it obligations'. AH the failures thus far announced have been of firms which do continental business. Airoaoy, tho aiinounooinont of an intornrhan auto-bus lino, which will "provide hourly passenger Service between tho com munities. Auto tnfek lines'oii regular schedules that will pick up and deliver the output of farm and orchard and distribute the tnoMiandiso from the city store will follow as a matter of course. The naved highway will give to the farmer tho bene fits of the city, yet preserve the eharin of country life. The farmer along it uses elect rioity,- enjoys the telephone and cheap transportation. It is far less trouble for him to go to the city than it is for the average city dweller to reach the business center. It seems more than nrobablo that tho first result of the paved road will be an increase of population and of homes, subdivision of property, more intensive cultivation a greater development all 'along the line. ITence the paved road will increase the wealth and resources of the county to a far greater extent than its original cost. "But the influence of the paved highway will not end here. It will make the county a Mecca for tourists, and so bring in a constant Stream of revenue during the sum mer months. Tt will unite the various communities of the valley into one large community, with common interests and common purposes, wiping out sectional strife and dis cord, for eventually the hitihwav will be lined with sub urban homes. Extending in an unbroken line of pavement to San Francisco and Los Angeles, the hijihwav will virtuallv dimes this county to California. The ties that bind grow stronger yearly. Froln the north there is little oo-opcra- uoii. a su'carc 01 imici win supplant uie paveu nouievaru in Oregon and there will be little temptation cither for tourist or resident to go' north when the south offers so much more. This constant intercourse between southern Oregon and California is bound to produce a community of interest. Josephine county should bond itself and ooinpletothe highway from the .Tackson county boundarv to Grants Pass, thence towards Crescent City. The California tour ist will then come npthe Pacific hiuhwav and 20 back the coast route, or vice-versa. There is no particular object fn constructing the highway north, when northern counties refuse co-operatiou. The improvement of the Crater Lake highway will afford an outlet east to Central Oregon, thence north and via thtr Columbia highway to Portland. The paved highway promises to have a most important effect upon the growth and development of the eountrv as well as beneficially affecting the character of the po- iimuon uy morning a new aim uroauer environment. Jt will change the country as the paved streets has trans formed the city. The example set by .Tackson county will force the road development of the balance of the state and help create a new Oregon.
