II is not an unusual thing for n building or
a lot to be sold three or four times a week
under such circumstances. Recording sales,
making out deeds and transfers thus be-
comes the most profitable industry OF the
town Since it is curiosity to find man
in Chicago holding piece of real estate for
more than a month. we are really surprised
that the real estate transfers, as published
in the paper, don't foot up two or three
millions week" 1t will occur TO good
many that the P.-D. regrets that St Louis is
not little more speculative and feyerish.

The real estate business of the two rival
cities-St. Louis and Chicago-for one week
Is given as follows: Chicago, s9s7 ,6ss; st.
Louis, S4oO53. The st. Louis Post-Dispa4eh
regards it as an easy matter to account FOE
this vast discrepancy. st. Louis owns itself
Chicago is chiefly owned by outsiders. In
st. Louis real estate transactions, like its
growth, are steady while Chicago is a spec
ulative, feyerish town. All the real estate OF
the city changes hands every month or two.
A man in Chicago may own forty building
lots to-day. An unlucky gambling transac-
ton on Change forces him 10 sell to-mor-
row. The following day the purchaser of
the lots is brought to bankruptcy, and he, in
turn, il forced TO part with his property.

THE prohibition law in Rhode Island is q
dead failure. The Providence Journal says
the failure is owing to the fact that neither
the people, the ordinary officials nor the
Court will do their duty. In other words,
both the license law and the prohibitory
law have been broken down because of the
utter indifference of the irresponsible and
the responsible portion of the community
concerning them.
