been reversal and con-
fusion In the commerce
and manufactures OF
the United States
The truth of the matter is that the
Zribu,se's financial estimate ofthe pre-
sent state of business, as compared
with the period selected by Mr.. Blai-
ne, in rather under than over the
mark. The trade journals represent
the stu alton as decidedly better than
that of last year, and we venture to
say that if the business men of the
country were polled on the question,
ninenty-nine in every hundred would
say at once and without the smallest
hesitation that there is marked i'm
provement in trade and in industry.
Brddstreets issue of August the IL
says that its special kilograms from
leading cities "rark an increase of the
improvement in the conditions of trade
noticed last week" The same paper
furnishes table of railroad earnings
for about two-thirds of the conutry's
railroad mileage, showing that, not
withstandiDg the rate wars and the in
reference of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the State Railroad
Commissions, "The earnings from Jan
uary to June 80 show an increase of
B per ce Mt. over the first six
months of 1887, while over the same
periods of 1886 and 1885 they are 1877
and 22.6 per cent, respectively, great.
err Immediately proceeding Mr..
Blaine's laundering statement of the
business situation is another statement
equally untrue, that he is going to dis
cuss question on which he is Sup
posed to have a consistent record"
His consistency is that of reckless mis-
representation. Nothing else would
be consistency on his part. 1t is very
evident that when he made his speech
last evening he had not taken pains to
inquire whether business was good or
bad, better or worse than last year.
1t suited his purpose 10 represent it as
being bad, and so he said it was bad
and took the chances. "Burn this. -

Mr.. Blame begins his speech. making
as usual with a blunder or misstate-
ments so glaring that every business
man in the country recognizes its par
entage at once. Contrasting the bust
ness situation of the to-day with that
of last year, in order to show how mis-
chievous have been the effe,ts of the
Presidents message and the Mills bill,
he says that business was prosperous
last year, and that we have nov euter-
ed upon a period of depression. This
is not the opinion of the New York
ZSi6u,,es financial editor, however.
We put in the deadly parallel the say
ings of the two authorities:
