THE REASON OF IT.

An English statistical writer says,
that, while population in Europe and
the United States has risen "a per cent
since 1850, working power has increas.
ed 105 per cent, and, as q consequence
of this, five men can now accomplish az
much as six in 1870, or eight in 1850.
The worlds steam.power is now five
and a half times what it was in 1870.
In these two facts alone can be found
an adequate explanation of the much
talked-of problem of over-produotion
which has depressed the world for the
last few years. There are too many
producers, and not enough consumers;
too many goods, and too few buyers.
