World's Panic Under Roosevelt.

m Congress seven years ago.
Tillman drove to the point in his
usual picturesque and direct
fashion. He exhibited in the
Senate samples of the “scrip”
which passed for money in many
parts of the United States dur-
ing October and November, 1907.
These samples of “scrip” were
reproduced in the Congressional
Record.

‘■Here Is a fine looking specimen." Sen-
ator Tillman orled, exhibiting a Southern
Wearing house eertlfleate to the 8enate.
"It looks like what you people call Con-
federate money, with whloh 1 was very
familiar when I was a boy—shin plaster—
and ret It was issued by national banks."
Among the many such samples
thus put in evidence by the
South Carolina Senator was a
little slip of paper typical of the
kind of money current on the
Pacific Coast that year. It was
called “Lumber Money.” The
lumber man that memorable fall
did not get money for his
duct; he got an “I. 0. U.”
The severity and causes of the
panic were told in an editorial
published in the Philadelphia
North American (Ind.) Decem-
ber 9. 1907:
"Fear Iirs subsided sufficiently fo make
straight talk' safe. For many weeks the
newspapers of the country uniformly
maintained an optimistic attitude and re-
frained from printing facts or comments
likely to increase the prevailing commer-
cial dread and thereby hurt the publie, *
Prosperity teas keeping curtency in
the sections where it was owned, and
Wall street wanted that money back to
gamble with. * * * The money chang-
ers stood from under the stock market
and let it crush upon the small fry.
"Eight months ago John D. Rockefeller
started a cry of calamity. Others of the
chief money changers took up the chorus.
And for eight mouths the gamblers and
Wall street prophesied disaster, and did
their utmost to create calamity. It was
uot easy sailing fora time. The country
was rich, busy and contented. The panic
breeders were facing unprecedented con
ditions. Consumption was larger than
! production. There was reither dtead nor
discontent: no scarcity of anything ex-
cept labor.
•'The country refused to be frightened.
Brute force must be used. The money
changers then used their most murderous
weapon. By their control of the currency
they could Jock up the money of the coun-
try and make it so scarce that business
could not precede. By crippling industry
and creating disgust they could cut down
consumption, make goods cheapaud cause
the money glut they wanted. They used
that weapon.”
the conditions were fundamental-
ly sound; second, because the
conditions being sound, an arti-
ficial panic could no be created
because the regional reserve act
had robbed the New York money
barons of their control over the
currency system.
Until 1907, the panic of 1893-4
and the Cleveland bond issue of
that period was a favorite repub-
lican theme upon the stump. To
meet the conditions caused by
the panic of 1907—that is. to ob-
tain money to bolster up the New
York banks—President Roosevelt
and Secretary of the Treasury
Cortelyou authorized the sale of
$50,000,000 Panama Canal bonds,
and of $100,000,000 three per
cent United States certificates of
indebtedness. Their legal au-
thority for the latter issue, erf
which $‘>0,000,000 worth were
sold, was doubtful.
"I recall with what wrath and horror."
said Senator Tillman in the same speech
quoted above, "our republican brethren
held up their hands and denounced the
democratic party for an increase of the
public debt in the time of peaoe by a dem-
ocratic president. Here we find in the
year of grace 1907. that with no deficit in
the treasury, with ample funds to carry
on legitimate business, with no demand
for a loan to build the Panama canal, with
absolutely no need of money to meet cur-
rent expenditures, bonds are issued.'.

will be pulled out ot the mire in which it
has been sticking for the last eight weeks-

every day. The present situation is a
peril to financial and commercial inter-
ests the world over.' ’
The remedy needed was well
understood even then. Legis-
lation was demanded that would
revise the currency system so as
co take away Wall street’s con-
crol of the currency. The pro-
gressive Republicans and the
Democrats fought hard for such
legislation through the winter
and spring of 1908. But the
Cannon machine in the House
and the Aldrich machine in the
Senate stood in the way.
The sole result was the un-
