are able to realize money for the build

cpls has experienced . wonderful
growth in the last ten years. and the
insurance companies that have sprung
from it have tended to keep money
from the savings banks. Again, many
have invested their earnings IN subur-
ban property with tho expectation Of
making Dig prodts by selling 1t after a

Undoubtedly much of this money will
find its way eventually into the savings

The year 1891 has been added to the
past and with today begins tie work OF
new year. The year that has gone
was sventful to Grand Rapids in many
ways. IL was . prosperous year to the
city IN that the great majority Of its
citizens were prosperous. happy and
contensed. Within the past twelve
months the city more than doubled It's
size so far as area is concerned and has
materially increased in both population
and wealth. The business failures for
1891 wero greater in number than for
the preceding year, but the total liza
bIIities and consequent loss TO creditors
was smaller. The merchants OF the
city have generally enjoyed profitable
trade and the prospects for most of
them are brighter today than they were
one year ago.
In municipal Improvements the city
has taken long strides and haA. put on
some metropolitan Airs. Previous to
1891 first class pavement was hardly
known in Grand Rapids, vet within the
past year several hundred thoussnd
dollars have been invested in perma-

TORCH REFORM.

The progress of Reform" in Illinois is mar
yellous and beautiful. OF cOuIsei reform Of
the Democratic variety is expected to boom in
that State particularly. because Mr.. Stevenson,
the Democratic candidate for Nice-Presdent.
was expected to give the party "A chance OF
success in Illinois, and his nomination put the
party under obligation to wash lis face and
hands SO to speak, put on decent clothes, and
make itself respectable. In solemn conSulta
ton the Democratic leaders decided that, as

convention in that county which met on Satur-
day. The committee adopted a somewhat novel
and nattering mode Of taxing from the Demo

nominations, and to show what the party really
was and what it wanted. 1t appointed an I'D

the voters had nothing to do with the matter
But the scheme did not work. The Demo-
cratic voters of Cook County are passionaey
enalnored Of Reform, naturally, a. the gam
blers roughs. saloonkeepers and dangerous
classes do large share of the Democratic
voting there. The one thing necessary to them
was the selection of local officers who would
treat their peculiar ayocations kindly-that first

FALSE PREDICTIONS.

Eochester is after New-Iolk and Philadelphia

made clothing 1t is II convenient locality for
subectinc one OF the Democratic issues of 1890
TO a practical test II was assumed two years
AGO that prices Of ready made clothing would
he advanced i'm consequence Of the passage OF
the Mckinley act, and also that the wages Of
workmen in that trade would he reduced by
manufacturers an offset 10 the increased cost
of material. Our staff correspondent shows that
neither Of these results has followed. Ready
made clothing is Us cheap Is il was two years
ago and the workmcn are making as good
wages with the marked advantage OF steadler
employment. The price-i>ts and wage sched-
ueS Of the manufacturers demonstrate the
faIsty Of the predictions made two years ago
in both respects.
1t wa, one of the chief objects Of the Mckn-
lev act TO secure the production in the United
states Of large variety of the finer manu-
factnres of both woolen and cotton goods.
This result has already been partially accom-
plShed. Enlargements and Improvements III
woollen mills have been made and many new
factories have been built Not only is every
woOllen mill in the country running on full
time but there j. also marked Improvement
in the qualities of manufactured goods. The
greatest activity prevails in this branch of bdSi-
ness and the number Of competitors for sup
plying the home market with materials for
clothing is rapidly increasing. II the Mckin-
ley law remains in operation few years longer
the effect of largely increased competition will
be fully produced. and great reductions to con-
sumers will inevitably follow Meanwhile, there
is no increased burden to consumers and no
decline in wages and the volume Of business
in manufacturing wooens and clothing is ex-
banding enormously.
