FRIDAY, ACUL'ST 14. 1908
CHECKING EXTRAVAGANCE.
Since the panic last October there
has been a general movement toward
curtailment of expenses. The years of
prosperity had made the people of high
and low degree, reckless and extrava-
gant; they did not weigh well the cost,
aolaclng themselves with the theory
that the stream of wealth was flowing
In and that If both ends did not meet.
It would be easy to put off the day of
reckoning.
Panic* are annoying things. Yet
they are not without their uses They
are beneficial to the country In putting
a check on the high speed. The finan-
cial and business systems have an Im-
perfect balance wheel or panics would
never become possible When the bal-
»nce Is dangerously far out of line, a
readjustment must take place or the
whole machinery will go to smash
During the Inst nine months It has
been no unusual thing to hear business
men sav tiled reduced their expenses
without crippling their business In the
least, 19 to 29 per cent. The panic has
forced these measures upon I hi- Indi-
vidual During his cleaning up he
•hould have detected evidences of a
similar shaking up In our government
affairs.
In the last 20 year* while Ihe popu-
lation of the United States has sd-
vnnc»d from 89.999.000 to 89.999 999. r,o
T'r cent, the expenses of the govern-
ment have Increased from less lhao
8499 990 to more then II 099,000,099 an-
nually—nearly 300 per cent.
Why should the expenses of the gov-
rnment Increase six limes ns rapidly
The question of a union do|iot Is at-
trading a great amount of attention
The splendid article In venter lay's
Democrat by J. A Friend was a ,»*,-
torly presentation of the arguments In
favor of It. Any one who wishes to
< xpros* his views on elihcr side is fre,.
to follow it ft |a proper that all s des
be presented and then that a vote be
taken While a second date has been
*et for a hearing. August 22, the cor-
poration commission has no choice
to dates. They will as readily grant
another extension and give an oppor-
tunity for a vote upon the question
They are simply doing what the peo-
ple of Tulsa want done in the whole
matter.

that to officer Moran special credit ‘s

The time of the year will soon In-

out or at least Informs his stay-at-
