————oro—____ .. philosophy of fact and abstract morals Sd THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO} FRIDAY THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Ciresiation of any Newspaper In the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. In fallness of explanation of causes if not of suggestion of remedy, the article of Mr. Henry Clews in the current North American teense is one of the most helpful of the series of published views upon the late financial crisis. He maintains that the trade of the country was in generally healthy condition and ‘that wimt injury has indirectly befallen com- merce 1s due almost entirely to the disruption af credit from purely monetary and financial causes. And he attributes as the chief source of recent troubles the creation of railroads and other speculative enterprises beyond the needs of the existing population. The panics of 1873 ‘and 1834 were mainly due to an excessive diver- sion of capital in such enterprises and their or- ganization on a speculative basis, A curious fact in this connection is the repetition of such extravagance closely following the collapse of 1884. Among minor influences Mr. Clews reckons the locking up of several mil- lions of silver Lullion in anticipation of the passage of the new silver act, and the en- actment of the tariff bill, causing importers to wake large prepayments of duties, involving the transfer of millions of cash from the banks to the treasury and increasing the demands of the importers for bank accommodation. 80 far the domestic causes of disturbanee. A large measure of the aggravation of the crisis must be charged to the deranged condition of finance in London. Mr. Clews estimates the American share of the inflation which caused the crisis at two billion dollars; the British share at two billion four hundred millions. For the disease thus diagnosed, what is the remedy? Inflation? Thousands and thous- ands of the people think so, and hence the ways and means thrust before partake mainly of schemes to indefi- nitely inflate the circulating medium. But the report of the Secretary of the Treasury shows that the increase in circuiation in actual use during the three months before the crisis amounted to over $63,000,000, which, |it is claimed by business men, produced no percep- ‘ible effect on the stringency. From the same source it is learned t!“at for years past the cir- culation has increased out of proportion to the growth of population. Following in the train of thought pursued by Mr. Edward Atkinson and other —_ priters Banker Clews contends that while public opin- ion blindly ascribes such congestions as the re- cent one to scarcity of money the trouble comes entirely from an arbitrary and needless restraint upon the lending function of the banks. He would maintain ample cash reserves, not to be regulated by cast iron law but used when the emergency arises for which they are provided. a ee Dr. Dixon, the Philadelphia bacteriologist, who has returned home from a visit to Dr. Koch in Berlin, makes some very interest ing statements respecting Koch and the new treatment for consumption. Koch himself is a conservative thinker, free from all claptrap, but the government is rashly elated ana claims teo much from the discovery. It hopes to es tablish Berlin as a successful rival in medicine of Munich, Vienna and Paris. Dr. Dixon him- self is not over sanguine as to the new remedy, which be says is the dilution of a dilution of a most powerful poison. The silence of Koch is partly explained in Berlin by the supposition that he is not positive as to which of the many factors in the lymph lies the active healing principle. Dr. Dixon thinks that while in lupus and tubercular skin diseases generally, the lymph is effective, in certain other diseases, such as tuberculosis of the brain tissues, an in- jection would instantly produce death. He re- gards the remedy as of doubtful value even in early stages of consumption. Meantime Dr. Koch is pursuing his discovery, hoping to find more in it than has yet been revealed. Making all necessary allowances there is much to hope for ia the experiments that this great physician is condcting so modestly and conscientiously. Of such investigations is all science worthy the contlicted in human history. The savage and the barbarian have been pressed to One side or crushed under the heel of pitiless civilization. The Dravidian in India retired to the bills, the aboriginal American to the bad land. in the rear of the continent. Both served the law of progress for the race fit to eurvive. Where the cyclopian wall and the cromlech stood now stand the proudest monuments of man’s genius. If “the noble red man” cannot stand, he must fall.But there isa pathos in his fall that may well touch the heart of his conqueror and dispose it to pity. There have been egregious errors in the policy of the whites toward the Indians. The treatment of the aborigiaes by the United States government has lacked consistency and has at times seemed to be devoid of fairness. But who can say that matters would have been managed better asa whole by others? “Put yourself in his place,” iae good motto in such affairs. ‘The greatest fault of oar national policy respecting the Indians bas been vacillation. Individuals have most sinned against them by selling them ardent spirits and firearms and stealing their sup- plies. As long as no attempt ix made to avenge them the grievances of the Indian are freely ac- knowledged. But at the first outbreak of hos- tilities, at the first sprinkling in the face of the nation of the blood of white men, the race in- stinct asserts itself, a deadly hatred displaces sympathy, and civilization sweeps as an ex- terminating wave over the so-called barbarous race. . re : ‘The collection of rare books by the Southern Society of New York, the catalogue of the first thousand of which has just been prepared, bids fair to preserve for the southern states a large part of the history and floating literature of that region, which without such special effort to save it would have soon perished. The New England Society has done a noble work in the same line for the section it represents. These historical and literary labors in a sectional field are promotive of # national spirit in de- veloping the peculiar work of each part of the Unien--the whole feld being too great for any one society and the separate associations hay- ing local qualifications not possessed by any general body of laborers. —— ‘The showing of census year is locally gratify- ing. While the national growth has been great, the population of the District has increased considerably faster in proportion than the Population of the United States. It may be added tha: the circulation of Tur Star has in- creased in much larger ratio even than the population of the District.
