Finance and Trade.

From some cause the improve
ment so noticeable for few
weeks has Jagged, and the re-
sumption of idle mills and facto.
ries is less marked. Against
thirty-three closing and ten re.
ducing their force of employees.
something like an equal number
have resumed in full and twenty.
six in part. This is not overly
hopeful, and the only reasonable
explanation Of the retardation is
found in the Senate's hardness to
act upon the repeal of the Sher
man bill and a manifest dispo.
sition on the part of the House
to complicate the situation by
tlnkering with those schedules of
the tariff in which capital and la
Dor are vitality interested. A
continuation of these tactics can
not but be disastrous.
The improvement which fol-
lowed the defeat of free silver
was rapid and radical. 1t seemed
to follow as day follows the night.
But a sudden halt seemed to
come with equal certainty when
the Senate showed almost UNI.
mistakably that the passage of
the Wilson bill for repeal was by
no means a certainty. In such a
case as this trade cannot stand
still. 1t must advance or go
backwards. And if the Senate s
probable action is not soon fore.
Swallowed, all that was gained
will be entirely lost. or we may
sink deeper in the mire than
ever. Cincinnati Tribune.

r. G. Dunn & Co.'S review of
trade last week says: Improve.
ment has EXTENDED from the
banks to the mills. The condi.
ton of great industries has dis.
tinctly mended, though still Sc
riously depressed. More works
have resumed during the past
week than have stopped opera
ton, so that the producing force
of the country, after months of
constant decline, has begun to
increase. The money markets
are more healthy, the premium
on currency has almost vanished.
the embarrassments in domestic
exchanges have we'll nigh dis.
appeared, and while very little
money is yet available for CON-
mercial or industrial loans there
there is some relief in that re.
spect. Soft steel has reached
the lowest point on record, sac
at Pittsburg, and consequently
all rail mills in the country are
idle, but there is a somewhat bet,
ter demand for hardware, wire
rods barbed wire, and contracts
for agricultural work and agri.
cultural implement supplies are
reported at Chicago. Sales OF
wool have been the lowest OF

State fair grounds August 81,
and adopted the following resolu-

That with adequate protection
all the wool and mutton needed
for nome consumption will soon
be produced in this country,
That free wool will substantially
destroy the American wool in
dustry and injuriously affect all
other industries, especially agri-
culture. That wool growers
should oppose the nomination or
election of any candidate who
does not favor full and adequate
protection for wool. That one
necessary remedy for existing
stringency in money is to legis-
late so that we can cease import.

The interest of every honest
American is that every honest
industry in this country should
prosper. The interest of every
American manufacturer, depend
ing as he must upon the home
market for the sale Of bis fabrics,
is that the agricultural and min.
ing population shall be fully em-
ployed and shall obtain good
prices for It's products. No man
who is humane, or patriotic, can
contemplate without regret and
sympathy the sufferings of the
silver miners of the far West and
of the commercial interests de.
pending upon them for prosperi-
ty. Nor is it possible to regard
with indifference the feelings of
despair with which the Western
farmer observes the price of his
wheat steadily declining below
the cost of production, the dis
may with which the wool grower
begins to slaughter his profitless
tiocks, or the suffering of the
Southern planter as he finds tina,

to pay a debt which could have
been extinguished with one bale

In view Of what Hoods Sarsaparilla
has done for others. is it not reasonable
to believe that it will also be of benefit
to you?
An editor of an exchange says
he knows of some people who are
SO exceedingly modest that in
speaking about PERSONS leg
they persist in calling it limb;
but the Stephenson county young
lady who in speaking of certain
breed of chickens called them
Brown Limbhorns, he thinks,
takes the bakery. -That's moth
ing. In this city there dwells a
young lady SO exceedingly modest
that she bushes every time she
passes a pile of undressed lumber.
-Lanark, H., Gazette.-It seems
that this mock modesty is not
confined to the young ladies. We
have a young gentleman In our
town who even bushes at the
sightof a garter snake.-Weston

ANothing Policy.

Mr.. Geo. Fred Williams; a
prominent Democrat Of Massa-
chusetts in reply to the inter
rogatory, What should be done
after the repeal of the Sherman
act p said, Nothing
And in that one word you get
the policy and principles Of
Democracy. The whole ground
is covered. Pleged to the repeal
Of the Sherman act, to the re-
moval Of the tax on State banks
and to the reform of the tariff
or rather the repeal Of the Nc.
Kinley bill, they gained complete
control of the Government in all
the branches essential to legisla.
ton. And they are practically
doing nothing, unless the divis.
ion of spoils is something. Even
that is being done, but poorly
according to the views of the
hungry and faithful. Time will
not remedy matters.
The nothing policy Is charac-
teristically Democratic. For
years the party has kept together
through its opposition to any
thing proposed or done by the
Republican party. AS to sug-
costing new plans or purposes
to aid the natural development of
the country they have done moth
ing. They have fooled a part of
the voters all the time and, un.
fortunately. a majority of the
voters part of the time. AS a re-
suit they have full swing and are
doing nothing.
They may hope to retain con
troll of the national government
by this deception and ..nothingr
policy, but we have a strong i'm
lression that when the voters
have an opportunity ayear hence
the House of Representatives
will be Republican with a work
ing majority. Then the moth
ing policy will be speedily
abandoned and the something
policy of the Republican party
come decidedly to the front.
The quicker such a consum.
nation is reached, the better for
the country.-Ci Gin. Tribune.
