This country is not going into bank
ruptcy. The situation improves and
will be better. This is to b. a bounti-
full crop year and the crops will bring
into general circulation u vast amount
OF money.
Conservative estimates place the corn
crop at 400 million bushels above that
OF last year, oats an excess OF 60 million
bushels. Hay is expected to be we'll
beyond the average and there is an un'
usual market for every ton Of it. This
product is already very high and the

so that none may be taken out OF that
empire. Tho trouble in siam may at
any moment set all Europe by the
ears, and armies must be pro vided for.
There may be no European war, but
provision will be made just the same.
The best figuring shows that We shall
have l5O,O 900 bushels OF wheat for ex-
port and that the foreign demand will
takeit all. American farmers will get
money for these products and themoney
will go into circulation. Moreover the
balance OF trade will he increasingly
in our favor, and, foreign buyers must
pay the difference in money. This
money will be gold, and we shall see an
increase OF the gold imports already
begun.
Congress will repeal the silver pur.
chase provision and quiet the troubles
arising from this source. This is as
certain as anythinGin tho future can
DO. There has been no question since
the war on which SO many of the peo.
pie OF this country have agreed. Pub.
lie sentiment has broken over party
barriers and is driving Congress to tho
repeating point.
Nor is it now to be taken for granted
that there will be IL radical oyerhauling
OF the tariff. There is a conservative
element in tho Democratic party which
will endoavor to impress OIL tho party
representatives in Congress tho danger
OF taking any step to unsottie further
the business OF the country and rctard
tho early return OF full confidence.
There is some encouragement to hope
that the President may become the
loader OF this conservative clement.
Tho situation ia infinitely better than

began to gather, and there is nor
solid reason for men to trust each
other and to rely on those necessary
business institutions through which
