An Improved Outlook.

VI
Since the opening of the year there
has been am Improvement in vari.
Gus branches of trade, and the
change for the better has been at
tested by the merchants of this city,
who have spoken through the col
umns of the World. These mer-
chants represent various interests,
and being in = position to ascertain
the facts, their views in regard to
the situation must naturally have
much weight with such people as
have not the same means to ac-
quaint themselves with the condi-
ton Of trade. The fact that heliq-
uiIations and failures at the close OF
1884 were much fewer in number
than had been anticipated. is of IT.
self certain indication that CON-
mercial credit is sOunder than has
been generally supposed. There is
also more disposition on the part OF
capital To embark into business, as
is reflected in the revival Of activity
in the produce markets, in The start
ing up of iron mills in various sec
tions OF the country and in the har-
dening of prices of commO lities and
securities. The outlook is certainly
better than it has been for some
time past, bnt until 1T is found that
the change is of u lasting character
il will be wise to pursue conserva-
tive policy in the management oi
either large or small interests.

The Cost Of Living.
III HMo.lA

Some interesting figures published
in the American Grocer compare the
wholesale prices OF the principal food
products in the years 1870. 1879 and
1884. -
In seventeen articles OF general con.
sumption there has been an average
decline of more than so per cent.
since 1870. Between 1870 and 1879
there was decline in all the articles
named except Rio coffee, which was
sold at III cents in the former years
and at IA cents in the latter.
Between 1879 and 1884 there was a
further decline in granulated and
crushed sugar, Rio coffee, Japan tea,
rice, and Goldfish, wheat, flour and
canned peaches; and a rise in mess
pork, mackerel, corn, canned oysters,
canned salmon, lard, butter and cheese.
On an average, prices were about the
same in both years.
The difference between the prices
in 1884 as compared with 1870is large.
The decline is us follows:-Granulated
sugar, from 13 to ST cents; crushed,
from 143 to 81 cents; Rio coffee, from
LII to 50 cents; Japan tea, from 561 to
19 cents; rice, from 81 to At cents;
mess pork, from $26.85 to 1925; lard
from 154 to 6.8 cents; butter, from
80 to 20 cents; cheese, from IL q to 12t
cents; mackerel, 20 to % cents; cod
fish, 81 to Al cents; wheat, $l.29 to 81
cents; -four, $3.50 to $3.50; corn, 81 TO
50 cents; canned peaches, $3.50 to
$l.35; canned oysters, from $l.5O to
80 cents, and canned salmon, from
$1.S2 to $1.27. 3 %
l. would be interesting to test the
question, by a comparison OF retail
prices, whether the consumer has
reaped the full benefit OF the decline.
In 1879 the financial troubles came
upon us while the cost of living was
very high. In 1880, when prices had
declined, we were promised unpreced-
ented prosperity and glorious time
for the laboring classes il Garfield was
elected. Now, with living cheaper
than it has been for some years, there
is little employment for labor and
huil9seds of thousand are suffering
for want of the necessaries of life.
Let US hope that the business inter.
ests Of the country viii improve un-
der Democratic policy SO that Labor
may find employment and reap the
advantages of the modern cost OF iood
products. .g.as u

srhe election of Cleveland will

remark frequently heard from the
lips of Republican office-holders
during the Presidential campaign.
To MAINTAIN their consistency and
to pay proper tribute to their own
self-respect all such officials should
resign early in March.
There are thousands of persons
now holding Federal offices who
have always stoutly upheld the
doctrine that no Democrat should
hold Office under a Republican ad-
mfnistration. These gentlemen
ought to resign, but we are not en-
tireiy confident that they will. .ss.s
During the recent campaign there

lists of the names of department

The following interview was pub
lished in the Memphis Avalanchs
some weeks ago. We reproduce 1t
at the special request OF some o
DIR. Caldwell's friends In this com
munity; -
Learning that DIR. J. w. Caldwell
professor OF natural sciences at the
Southwestern Presbyterian Univer.
sity, of Clarksville, Tenn, had re-
signed his position ON account ol
the decision OF the church council In
the case OF DIR. Woodrow OF South
Carolina, q representative OF the
Avalanche called ON him at his res
idence to know IL he had anything
of public character TO say upon
the great question which is agitating
the great conservative church oi
America. He was found very averse
TO any publicity. His own course
had been taken. he said simply as a
matter demanding private decis-
ion. He had been put under no
eOnstraint personally and officially
his position was pleasant. AS to

care TO speak at all. AS to his own
course he would only say that he
could not teach In a spirit of free
and open inquiry as to scientific
subjects without ut some times rum
ming counter to what he saw was
the fixed purpose in the church.
The matter was bound to come to a
head in June. There was no doubt
as to the result. He preferred to act
now. He did not wish, however.
to express any views on the subject.
"But, DOCTOR" said the reporter,
"This is a great question, greater
than this Institution. the church Or
ganizatiOn and the sincere and hon.
est men, engaged in settling differ
ence Of opinion as to a grave issue.
1t is the duty of newspaper to set
these things out. The publication
OF error brings out truth the publI-
cation OF the steps in controversy,
or of the mere fact that this or that
step, such as yours, for instance, has
been taken, is part Of the record.
Would it not be well, with the pub
lication of the fact OF this step and
the reason for it-would it not be
better for your own statement OF
your position to go to the public,
than to have the reader make a sci
entific platform for you?
With great reluctance and unaf-
fected desire to avoid publication,
DIR. Caldwell agreed with the repre-
sentative of the Avalanche, that, il
he was to be set out anyhow, ii
would be better for him to set out
his own views than have them sup
piled by inference. With that view
he gave the Avalanche reporter his
views. t''
I'm fairness to him it should bs
said that he is as modest, quiet and
unassuming as he is a faithful, hon.
est and able investigator of nature,
and in no sense one of those who
get science from books alone and
become rather the noisy babblers OF
the scientific school, than true and
genuine Investigators. The follow
ing Is u sketch OF his views as near

A PROBLEM FOR THE CURIOUS.

A dealer in Maine has a call from
customer for four gallons of
liquid whose sale is prohibited by
the laws of that State. The Gus
toner has no vessel to contain this
liquid and the dealer will furnish
one, having in stock two empty
kegs-one of three gallons, the other
of five gallons and full keg of
eight gallons. The dealer has no
measure, but proposes to deal out
the four gallons by pouring from
one key to the other until he has
just the right quantity in one of the
kegs. How did he do this?
