Islng 9 candidate as could have been put
up, for popular suffrage. AS manager
In the interests of other men, he is IN
.equaled, but honest men with whom he
has had dealings dread to see him at the
head of affairs. He has attempted an
explanation of his lodging his income
tax, but 1t is lame affair. The fact is
patent, that he. is worth millions, all of
which was. made during the years this
tax was levied, and he. never returned
as much as would have been the income
of a moderately small lawyer. He pet.
tifogs it, as he does everything. rs.

is picking up and everybody feels en-
couraged. The merchants are overrun
with trade, and the complaint now is
that customers cannot be attended to.
Throngs of Southern and Western peo-
pie are here, many of them sight
seeing, bat more making glad the
heart of the merchant by purchasing.
The streets are crowded with trucks, as
in the good old days, and the piles of
boxes on the sidewalk are appalling to
| all but those who are rolling them. Fhe
| hotels, for the first time ia three years,
are crowded, the daily arrivals occupy
| ing five and six columns of the papers,
run in solid, in very small type, and
this only of the leading houses.
New York begins to look like the old
| city again. All this indicates the. revi-
val of confidence that we have all be en-
| hoping for. Now let the growing stop
in the country. Let us. all put our
shoulders to the wheel, and go to work
| to do something The. hard times are
! over, just as soon as people say so, and
act as though they believed it. If you
! have house to build, and can afford it,
1 go on and build it. The sun is going to
| rise just as many times this year as ever,
and everything is going to go on as US,
ual The crops are averaging well,
| there is money enough and to spare, and
! all that is needed is get rid of the sense
| less scare, and, with confidence. go on.
| This is all that is necessary to make
/ good times. There are reasons why we
| should not let the business go by the
| board, if it can be avoided. We have
streets to fill, farms to settle and popula-
| ton to attract. There was steady
| stream of emigration flowing into the
| country, the most with money, and all
| with labor, all of which ceased the mo-
ment the cry of 'Ehard times" was raised.
| This stream We ought to get to flowing
again as soon rs possible. The shortest
way to do it is to get to doing some
thing. There are millions of Germans,
French, English, Irish and Scotch who
want to come, and they will come the
moment we say ''good times" to them.
We can have good times always II we
will. [ want TO see the ships coming IN
again, and unloading their eargoes OF
human freight, to go West and MI up
that blessed country. Stop croaking,
and inaugurate a new era, and don't
waste a1y time about II.
| ON THE WAY TO THE CENTENNIAL.
/ | have received many letters from,
| your readers, inquiring specifically as 70
what board can be had for in New York,
and where. In answer let me say that
| board, in respectable houses can be had
for from So to SO week, and, If you
want better rooms, say from $40 to $l4.
To get these rates go into any house that
has a card up, anywhere on Lafayette
Place, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth or
Thirteenth Streets, Clinton Place, Wav-
erly Place, or any street in that locality.
State that you want rooms for week,
and possibly for less time, and make
your contract for such time as you stay,
at so much q day, then you can stay as
long as you choose and Only be compell-
ed to pay for what you have. Be care
49, " of l snsse streets, not farther east
| than Second Avenue, nor west than
| Sixth Avenue. All these run east and
west. Arrange so as to get into New
| York or Philadelphia in the morning.
| This will give you chance TO get settled
without submitting to q swindle for one
| night. Take train that will bring you
in, in the morning. All / have said about
New York will apply equally to Phlla.
delphia Rooms without board, IN Ell
Their city can be had for from 81 to 81
| per week, which allows you to get your
| eating where you choose, and at such
prices as may seem good to you. AT
restaurants and eating houses the price
of each dish Is stated, so that you can
eat extensively or cheaply as you e. ect.
| By care, and taking time you may live
as cheaply as you please, and have your
stay extended. You can by care make
a hundred dollars take you twice the time
it will by carelessness. And bear this in
mind, you want to stay as long as you
can. There is enough there to keep you
proftably month if you can afford it.
By all means come This Exposition,
/ properly observed, is q liberal educa-
ton.
