The State of Trade.

While brighter skies and warmer wealth,
or has led to greater activity in few
lines Of seasoaable goods, increasing labor
complications hang like pail over nea
enterprises. There is nothing to indicate
that the dissatisfaction Of the wage>earner.
is being lessened, or that strikes, boycotts and
other effects of such dissatisfaction are ap.
preaching an end. On the contrary they are
growing in fr' qusncy and force through or
ganizltion, and this condition OF affairs rem.
ders all markets. legitimate as well as specu
latve, heavy and uncertain. Indeed
under existing systems, the hopelessness
of any remedy other than letting
things work themselves out is
one Of the most disquieting features to the
business observer. Whether the revolution
can be peacefully accomplished which is
rushing rapidly, apparently without control,
towards the extinction OF the wage system,
and the establishment Of either cooperation
or serfdom. nust depend on an early compre-
henslon Of ths importance Of the subjec. by
men in POSITION to direct events or to mod
ify results. Such suggestions have already
dropped from leading minds, and the great
weight Should not he passed unheeded.
With the exc 'ption of the Industrial si.ua.
ion every phase and feature OF business is
improving Failures are becoming less, both
in number and magnitude, capital is obtains
ing better employment, as is evinced by the
week y statement of the Associated Banks
Of New York, the holders of the ultimate
banking reserves OF the country. While
profits are not large there is usually enough
margin in trade to pay expenses aud some

no extraordinary destruction of prop

growing out of the wage system, not only in
this country, but throughout the civilized
