He was walk ing through the park one day with 8 naughty, aristocratic lady. "Have you any trees in America P she suddenly asked him.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

In commenting upon the business out
look OF the country the st. Paul Globe
contends that the complete reiutation o.
the cock-and. bull stories which our Repub.
lican friends delighted to tell OF the direful
things which would happen in the business
world consequent upon the election OF
President Cleveland, is in no manner bet.
ter illustrated than in the wonderful revival
Of unusual activity in all kinds of CONNER
cial transactions. There has sprung up a
confidence in the ability and we'll meaning
Of the present administration, and in con-
sequence there has been no hesitancy in
prosecuting new enterprises. and in arous-
ing the dormant life Of the old. In the
West, particularly, where, perhaps, the
good feeling toward the President is most
marked, the increased volume of business
is especially noticeable. Signs of activity
are to be observed on every hand. New
business houses are being organized, new
blocks built, and trade is extended to linn
its which it never before reached. The en-
ergetic man who is unemployed is the ex-
ception, and new industries provide ave-
nues Of occupation hitherto closed. The
revulsion Of feeling has almost brought
with it q revolution from the depression
which existed so short q time since, and
the progress toward a very comfortab BILE
prosperity in all branches OF business is
steady and wholesome. II, then, with his
term but half gone, there has been such a
wonderful revival, it is natural to expect
that before President Cleveland goes out
OF Office the country will enter upon a Pc
Rod OF prosperity ~unequaled in it's history.

THE SENATE.

The New York Times figures out that i,
the next session Of the United State.
Senate the balance OF power will be in tn,
hands OF the two independent Senators
Van Wyck and R~iddleberger. If the Times
forecast is correct, and it looks to be, it il
not improbable that the Democratic party
will be the beneficiary OF this state O,
things. Riddleberger has already evinced
a disposition to cut loose from the Repub.
licans. He has grown FESTIVE under the
severe discipline which his Republican
associates have imposed upon him, and
several times kicked out of harness when
the Republicans leaders did not look for it.
Riddleberger is also known to be a great
admirer OF President Cleveland and has
expressed warm approval of the Presi-
deut's administration. The fact that
Riddleberger was a Democrat before he
became a Readjuster givee plausi bility to
the story that he is o preparing to come
back to his first political love. And as for
Senator Van Wyck. he is in a position of
independence that senators seldom have an
opportunity to enjoy. He made a personal
canvass for reelection and won on bis in.
dividual record. That record was antaeo-
nistic to almost every measure that the
Republicans advocated. He was a free
lance in the last Congress, and will be more
OF q free lance in the future.

Lord Salisbury's speech at the Lord
Mayors banquet contained two important
declarations respecting the foreign policy
OF England. He said distinctly that Eng.
land would not for the present withdraw
from Egypt; and also, in substance. that it
would join the other powers OF Europe in
resisting any armed interference with the
independence OF Bulgaria. The first OF
these declarations is Of special interest to
France and tn, second to Russia. Those
powers may now distinctly understand
what the consequences will be if they per-
aist, the one in interfering too much in
Egyptian affairs, and the other in trying to
reduce Bulgaria to the condition of a Rus
sian province. 1t is also noticeable that
Lord Salisbury didn't lose sight of the fact
that his remarks would be read by
Englishmen. He did not neglect the oppor-
tunity to say that the condition Of affairs
in Egypt vas greatly improved.
