WEEKLY REVIEW.

Both manufacturers and merchants are
still engaged in making active preparations
for the fall trade, WHICH will soon open;
Prices are being overhauled and corrected
to meet the changes that have occurred. The
drug market is active, and the volume of
business done exceeds any previous
experience at this season OF the year.

are backward, but better than they
were two months ago Thsre is consider
able advance i'll lard oils of good and reliable
brands. Some inferior oil is still offered,
however, at lower prices than good oil costs
Linseed oil is lower. Terra Japonica higher
Ginseng, of good quality, is now III good de-
mand at high prices. Senega root is little
firiner. Noyes Brothers 4; Cutler recently
made several large shipments of the
later. Turpentine is &c per gal higher.
The general tone of the hardware market is
unsatisfactory, and prices are not regarded
as very firm. This impression is strength
ened by the fact that there are at the present
time several lines of goods, the price of
which has fallen away to a greater or
less extent Buyers are accordingly
rather cautious about placing their. or
ders showing a disposition to hold
off with a view to ascerIaining whether or
not there are to be further declines. With
this exception the condition is regarded as
promising well, the general prosperity of the
country, the expectation of fine crops and
increased activity in some lines, with an i'm
ing promise of good fall trade.
In the opinion of some we'll
informed parties prices are likely to
soon recover somewhat in tone. and the opin-
ion is expressed that in some lines which are
slow and irregular, those who defer purchas-
ing will very likely have to pay something of
an advance on present quotations.
Groceries are active. with an ap-
parently increasing demand. Sugars
have declined abouJ lac all around.
Dry goods are active and trade is steadily in
creasing. The first week i'll the month con-
tinues to show an active increase in busi-
ness. Much of the business transacted is
through orders given to the numerous sales
men on the road. Woolen fabrics form one
of the principal features of the orders now
being received. The travelling men all
through the country continue to give very
gratifying reports as to the condition of the
crops, and the general prosperity that pre-
walls throughout the country. The indica-
tions are that a very large business will be

1t is doubtful if the New Hampshire poll
ticians would be able to forget their railroad
disputes, even in death. The Concord cor
respondent of the Boston Record writes that
in the preparations for selections of dele
gatee to the Democratic convention at st.
Louis, the old fight of last summer is crop
ping out Frank Jones and A. w. Sulloway,
who want to 60 as delegates to Chicago, are
opposed by the Concord Democrats led by
John II. Pearson of Concord, and ii. w.
Parker of Claremont. 1t is probable that
the Jones party will prevail. Jones and his
friends have the ear of Cleveland and con-
troll the federal patronage In the State. LII
they take the position that they are Cleye-
land men, and are able to make the endorse
ment of Cleveland the issue it is not proba-
Bile that their opponents will care to make an
open fight in the convention. The quarrels
of the New Hampshire railroads will not be
likely to figure in the Democratic national
platform but the bitterness they have
stirred up will probably find expression in
the conventions that select the New Hamp-
shire delegates.

VERY GRATIFYING SIGNS.
GSpringfeld Union.1
1t is gratifying to note that the discussion
of Presidential candidates for the Republican
party il generally good-tempered. 1t is to be
expected that some Of the States will have
their 'favorite sons" and the advocates of
this or that man will do their best to make
his qualifications prominent But there need
be no display of bitterness and there is none.
No man should allow any to boom himself
by putting others down. Men and news
papers may and will talk about their prefer
ences, but the general disposition through
out the country to leave the national conyen-
ton free to make the choice for the party is
very gratifying. We believe the right ticket
will be selected, and the wisdom of the
choice will be ratified in November by the
American people.

The strike ON the Reading railroad that
has just been declared off was begun for the
purpose of compelling a large shipper who
received much freight over the railroad, to
discharge number of men in his employ
who were not Knights of Labor. There was
no complaint Of wages-indeed there was no
complaint at all against the Reading COM
pany, except that it did not use its influence
TO bring about a discharge of these men.
The strike was what is known as 'sympa-
thetic" strike, and was utterly without good
reason. 1t failed, and the men engaged in it
find themselves punished by loss of en-
ployment. as the Reading Company refuses
to take them back on any condition. Their
punishment is richly deserved. A strike
simply to coerce men to join labor organi-
zation on pain Of unemployment the pub
lie can never have any sympathy with.

The strike of the engineers en- the Western
railroads is becoming very serious. All the
engineers on the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe have left their engines, and the Union
Pacific company have had to decline Chica-
go, Burlington & Quincy freight to keep
their engineers from striking in body.
The latter road has managed to supply the
places of a good many of the engineers, but
it is far from fully manned, and it is to be
feared that good many of the engineers
who have been employed are not thoroughly

OVER THE USE OF YEAST.

Yeast raises the -four by fermentation, whereby
the nutritious elements of the -four are in part or
wholly lost, and the product is fruitful source OF
dyspepsia, especially if eaten while fresh.
Among the advantages resulting from the use of
Horsford's Bread Preparation are the following:
The saving of the nutritious constituents Of the
-four
The restoration of the phosphates removed by
boiling.
The saving Of time the phosphate bread being
prepared in few minutes, while ordinary fermented
bread involves preparation night.
The bread retains it's moisture much longer than
fermented bread.
The bread, biscuit gems, etc., made from it may
be eaten warm with impunity.
1t requires little shortening.
The results are uniformly excellent.

Last year Rhode Island went Democratic
owing to an unfortunate nomination and
consequent discussions in the Republican
ranks. The experience appears not to have
been without profit, for on Thursday the
Republicans held their State convention and
selected candidate that commanded the
support of every member Of the convention,
and who can be depended upon to command
the full Republican strength at the polls.
Rhode Island is naturally strong Republi-
can State, and her last years experience
with Democratic government has not made
her at all anxious for more of that sort.
