1t is the opinion of bankers and Others
whose business il is to watch the finan-
cial situation, that the situation is
much better now than for the past two
years. Money is easier in New York,
and the prospects are good for much
capital finding its way to the west dur
ing this year for permanent investment.
The west has suffered more keenly from
the financial depression than the east,
whose resources have been developed,
but our turn will come next.

A Gratifying Fact Demonstrated.

From the Leavenworth Times.

would have done if no candidate of Ger
man blood and associations had at any
time been in the field, and it is very
clear that the German Americans of
Chicago have determined to be indie
pendent American citizens who cannot
be moved i'll a body one way or the other
