A MONTHS PROSPERITY.

The marked improvement which has
attended local business during the
month which closes to-day can scarcely
have escaped the notice of those who
have given the subject any attention.
But few realize it's full meaning and
trade and IN are grouped to-
gether.
Contrary to an~ticipations Of dizziness
after the holidays, trade has been con-
~tinuously active and profitable. Enor-
nous as was the business of December
and large as must have been the sup
plies accumulated at that time, there
seems TO have been no surplus laid in
and the merchants have not felt the
effects during the past month of what
may be termed the over-trade Of holiday
weeks. Less than ever before has bust
ness fi~uctuated, and early as it is yet in
the year, there is evidence at hand that
this good beginning may be continued
through the season.
Such prosperity, in the face of m
what ominous conditions which are in
~fuencing trade elsewhere, can have no
more helpful effect than that of calling
the attention of not only home but out
side investors TO the merits of Provi-
dence as q city where investments in
real estate, in manufacturing enter
prises and in local securities are likely
to yield large returns in the near future.
Local investments, particularly those
in bank, railroad, gas or electric stocks,
depend in the main for their value upon
the business prosperity Of the COM
munity. 1t has become apparent from
the tone of local securities, that the
prosperity Of the city's business has
been very noticeable.
AS a direct result of this prosperity
there is TO be noted the additions to cap
ital stock Of two of the largest local
corporations, the Union Railroad Com
pany and the Narragansett Electric
Lighting Company. Both of these in
creases are necessitated by additional
equipments in order to meet the con-
stantly increasing business of transpor-
tation and lighting.
The citizens have during the month
received assurances that the vexatious
terminal difficulties have at least
reached a favorable conclusion and ter.
minals will now be pushed to compile
ton.
There is every evidence on every side
that a year of unprecedented success has
opened, and it is hoped that some of the
capital which usually seeks Western
fields for investment will be turned into
channels of local importance, So that
the money of the community may be
used to develop our own city.

1t should be a source Of satisfaction
to the present administration that at
least the beginning of a substantial ad-
dition to American shipping is 10 be
made before President Harrison's term
expires.
The cardinal principle of the Repub-
lican party, that American trade should
be carried in American ships, has re-
ceived every possible encouragement
from President HARRISON. Until
now, however, his efforts have
been unavailing. The Inman line, to
which special concessions were made,
has at last accepted the conditions, and
on the 25th of next month the City of
Paris will leave New York flying the
American flag. The City of New York,
the Berlin and the Chester will follow.
Within two years five new ships will DO
added to the line, all of which will be
built in this country.
There can be nothing more crafty
ing to Republicans generally than to
realize that the protective policy on
land which has resulted in our indus
trial independence is thus favorably
supplemented by n protective policy OH
the sea which will result in our shipping
independence.
