akes place, the earlier will be Il return
I better times. The longer miseon-
option Is INDUCED in that by somo
Unknown process. by some good luck
ather than by good management, n
,reat Improvement will take place.
he longer will IL DO postponed. 1t is
therefore,, important to discover what
ave been the great forces that have
hitherto created the greatest proSperl'
y the world has ever seen.
One source of creation OF wealth I'M
his country was tho opening oil vast
agricultural regions 10 the West. |
which made a demand tor the prof.
iucts oil the East, but now tue land Is
Ill occupied.
What, too, were tho consequences Of
.he rapidity OF settlements In the
Vest? 1t was an excessive competl-I
ion In production. 1t was the cren.
ion of crops unequaled In extsnt.
Tut when money, inildeuGaI by the
5arings, into Argentina cereals or
government farm mortgages began
10 bear fruit. When the money of
Britain, squandered in Australia, he
gan to tell on production, whera
again theS money OF Britain in rail
ways, rendering accessible large re-
gioEs in Iudia. and when Russia, with
her enormous population aud force
of production recovered from her
when uli those, coupled with
what tho occupancy OF new territory
on this continent could do the re-
suit, is seen in the tremendous fall OF
tho price OF grain.
The consequence to thu American
farmer in the loss of profit thus mp.
p. ut
more fatal than to the manufacturer
and the artisan. the merchant and his
clerks, the railroad investo. and the
ter which cheup food would In It's
eheapness seem TO havn Clussd.
Not only Is tho demand lrssened
Tor all sorts OF merchandise by the
fact that NO now States are 10 come
into the Union, not Only are there no
more new cities to Ue created In tile
shape of Capitals. few new town halls
a lessen ID number or road 20 be con,
,stTuctsd aud decreased demand fOl
everything. Not only this bet the
very result OF the expansion in the
past Is found In the excess OF tht
output in tho present. The tact thai
the farmer on whom We ali depend, Ii
unable to hold his own with Other
countries. and works tho gear round
Tor n profit &c mengre rs to hive littl'
ior nothing to spend, is tho great ant
potent cause OF trouble.
When and how is that to be? That il
ia question Of questions for all to an
lswvr,
I Thus the three forces which mad
the country great have been developed
and In certain sense this is a CON
pleted country, and it is this whicI
makes re'adlustmcnt necessary.
4 In conclusion he spoke OF how h.
believed restoration to normal con
ditlons was possible by an Increase o
foreign trade. Wilmington Is special
~ adapted TO gain advantage from
great maritime commerce both as
builder OF ships ana as . manufactul
ing city.
The United States neels only to tur
her energies outward instead OF II
