The Increase In Business.

The most extraordinary piece Of news this
fall is the revival of business. We have had
improvements in business before,-in fact, a
pretty steady Improvement for two years, the
last year much more perceptible. But great
and visible rush of trade and sweeping bare OF
the markets was reserved for the autumn of
1879. The great business in the marketing
Of western products, which has been done
now for several years, begins to make itself
felt in the western demand for the staples en-
tering into domestic improvement and enter
prise.
The great rise in lumber is occasiOned by
the greed of the western demand which snaps
up the supply before it can be shipped East.
The immense West has but to require here
and there house or a barn to greatly increase
the current demand for lumber. The rail-
roads suddenly find themselves short of roll
ing stock to move the accumulating freight.
The revival of this class of enterprises of
course involves a heavy demand for iron.
This coming at a time when all the manufac-
turers are engaged on old contracts at low
prices has given iron great lift in the hands
Of middle men. In fact it is generally true
producers as yet have experienced scarcely
any benefit from the rise of prices. The rise
in iron has already received check, and it
will be good policy for everybody not to slim
ulate the demand and help on an imitation of
prices disproportioned to the nominal capaci-
ty of the country to produce. BY spring we
shall see probably more settled quotations in
the leading staples of business.
One of the unmistakable indications of the
increase in surplus incomes is the sudden ex-
pansion in the trade in jewelry, silver-ware
and fancy goods. large establishment in
New York reports in the last three months a
great rush of business from people who order
lavishly and regardless of expenditure. The
universally of the revival is one of its most
marked features. There is scarcely an indus
try or a hamlet that is not affected by it. As
a political fact, it rebounds of course to the
glory Of the party in r.-Springfeid
Republican.
