HI WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
THE FINANCIAL OUTDOOR.
FRIDAY. JANUARY Is. IsW2'

The number of business failures in the
United States during the calendar year
1892, with the exception of South Dako-
ia (where a state law renders it unlawful
to report such information. except under
prohibitory conditionsl. is 1920, a small
er total than has been reported since
1882, with the single exception Of 1887,
when the like aggregate was 9,1lO, says
Bradstreets. This is a shade less than
l per cent New York, Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania cad the list in point
of number. The falling off in number
of failures as compared with 1891 is in
excess of Il per cent, while the decrease
of liabilities is fully "A per cent.
Taken in this connection the state
ment by the Hon. f. 5. Lacey, late en-
comptroller OF the treasury. and present
president of the Bankers National Bank.
of Chicago. in a recent address, is of
significance: The speaker is of the
impression that all over the world. and
particularly in the United States, there
has bcen IA continual and rapid progress
towards reducing all operations as far as
practical to a cash basis. and curtailing
credits, where indispensable, ito the
shortest possible time
This condition Of affairs would seem
TO indicate that the United States is
gradually approaching the, perhaps slow
er, but surely safer methods Of the old
world In its business transactions. If
so, it is certainly Il desirable change from
the rash form Of business transactions,
which have been and still are so preva.
lent in this country.

IN HISTORY.

No age of the world has resembled the
present in scarcely any particular. The
habits and thoughts of men, their modes
of living, methods of travel, home life
even their ways of thinking. have beer
revolutionlzed.
This country in particular has sur
passed all past records in the year just
closed, and if the true causes of its
marvellous progress could be presented
clearly to the vision there is none SC
stupid rs not to be awe struck by the
spectacle.
Commenting on the greatest year of
the Republics business career, one of
the trade reviews says:
This has been the most prosperous
year ever known in business with strong
ly favorable indications for the future.
From nearly all points comes the report
that the holiday trade has been the
largest ever known, apd while wholesale
trade is not usually active at this season
of stock taking, it is now remarkably
large. Shipments through clearing
houses outside New York in December
were apparently the largest ever made
in any month, exceeding last years by
more than 10 per cent. For the year,
the volume is also 10 per cent larger
than last year, and the largest ever
known. Railroad earnings IN December
show an increase of about } per cent
over last year, and for the year an in
crease of about SIS per cent. Foreign
trade has been smaller than last veal in
volume of exports, at New York $780,
600 in value for the past four weeks, and
at cotton ports about 510,000yO0O less,
but imports at New York have been
100000 larger, and the month still
shows a great excess of exports. For
the year, the excess of merchandise ex-
ports has not been far from S70,0O.000,
with the largest imports and the largest
total of exports and imports ever known
in any year"
1t is foolish for people to get the blues
in a land like this, or in a region like
that which surrounds the city Of Great
Courage and enterprise will &C

A habit of bewailing the opportunities
Of early days should bear in mind that
there were never such opportunities as
are offered at present.

Two years ago the trustees of Johns
Hopkins University replying to the de
mand for the admission OF women con
coded the privilege on the condition that
"a 100000 endowment fund be raised.
Strange to say the good cause did not
seem to unclose purses very generally,
but Miss Mary +. Garrett. of Baltimore,
has distinguished herself 10y making up
the deficit of 100000 alone, and now
women will be granted all the advan-
taIes Of Johns Hopkins. Three cheers
for Miss Garrett.

ENCOURAGE THE FARMERS.
A very feasible scheme for mani

A very feasible scheme for naming
country roads and numbering c%ountr,
houses is receiving much attention and
discussion. With good roads upon
which to travel and his house and high
ways named and numbered the lot OF
the farmer will be a great improvement
upon that of the past. The considera-
ton of the betterment of the farmers
condition, which seems TO be daily grow,
ing. indicates that as a people we are
gradually compromising the dignity
and Importance Of agricultural pursuits.
The bread-growcr surely occupies a more
essential position in the welfare of a
commonwealth than either the bread
winner or the bread owner, yet it has
been quite the fashion to ignore him to
a greater or less degree.
Very likely the agitation of the agri-
culturalist's needs and the statement of
his various rights and wrongs by a GER
tain portion of the press and politicians
had much to do with turning popu-
lar attention to this subject. May it
continue until the farmer is assured of
the prosperity and happiness which his
honest toll and numerous hardships so
we'll deserve.

A sIcKLY and humiliating bluff has

A sIcKLY and h%umiliating bluff has
been made by the would-be agitators OF
France, and the Republic and its rulers
are stronger than they have ever been.
A correspondent writing Of the situation
to the New York Tribune says:
There is no leader, no man whose
name is a blow, no man who has even
shown genius for organization, no man
who stands out from the crowd of me-
diocrities who are assailing the republic.
To get together a cabal is one thing; to
overthrow a republic is another. What
the Panama conspirators have succeeded
in d ing is to create confusion, to SOW
panic, no threaten a ministry, spread a
little foolish gossip about the president,
to insult his VIE, and to disturb the
bourse. The confusion continues, the
panic is already abated. The ministry
is still a power and stronger than it was.
The president and Nine. Carnot are no
whit the worse for the foolish calumnios
which nobody believed. The bourse has
recovered its zone and its prices.

AN old law of the reign of George III
has been revived in England. where pub.
lie profanity has shown a tendency tc
Increase of late, says an exchange. For
every oath uttered in public a laborer
must pay one shilling, a man a little
above that grade must forfeit two shil.
lings. and a gentleman five. This might
prove a trifie expensive if applied in
Great Falls. but the law common in this
country, which makes anyone using pro-
fame language in a public place liable to
arrest should be more strictly enforced.
Ladies are frequently shocked by over
hearing profane and vulgar language
while passing along the streets Of any
western city.

DIR. HARPER, the eminent biblical
scholar and president of the Chicago
university, says in a recent address:
1.-THE bible is not supreme today. That
it will be n day not one Of us will
doubt, but that day is far distant unless
a rational Interpretation and a rational
presentation of biblical material prevail
more widely Perhaps the learned gen
tleman is entirely mistaken. 1t is just
possible that modern lore will perma.
nently supplant that of the bible.

"Oh, dear. Do you think my BOYS

sighed Mrs. Winslow.
l endeavored to rcassure her. Thought

they don't care for cigars"

statement. l knew they V refused

"What kind of cigars?" l inquired,
with courteously yelled suspicion.
"Oh, the BEST" said Mrs. Winslow. 81

that to keep three boys supplied with

BILE bank account.

"Thanks. With pleasure!" he ex-

ONE ~ POLITICS.

Someone who has been investigating
the woman's suffrage system AS it Is rur
in Wyoming reports that the facts of the
case sluarely contradict all the proph-
etc utterances made on the subject by
both pro and anti -sutfragists. The
women do go TO the polls and count a
fuller vote than the other sex. They dc
electioneer and make speeches and enter
actively into all the modus operandi of
modern politics except that no woman
has yet been caught in bribery or any
other dishonest trickery.
COn the other hand. none of the great
social or political reforms which pro-
suffragists have pictured as the neces-
sary consequences of conscientious politi,
cal activity have yet followed. Wyo-
ming is no better, no worse, than adjoin-
ing states; gambling dens and dancing
dimes are licensed and prohibition has
not even made a beginning. Further
more, although politics is the chief table
talk Of the family during campaigns, and
receptions. balls and church socials are
made to count for votes" on the right
side by the entertainers and.their fair
guests, no serious social descriptions have
been chronicled. The moral of which
would seem to be that the ladies succeed
anywhere, even in politics. just as well
as the men.
