The reports of the trade reviews for
last week are more encouraging than
any they have given out since the
great depression fell upon the coun-
try. There was shown a marked i'm
provement both in commercial and in
dustrial lines. As rule prices were
better and there was a more active
movement in commodities of nearly
all kinds, which of course means a
more active circulation of money, so
much Of which has long been idle.
While wages have not yet been re-
stored to the old scale there have
been advances In quite a number of
mills and factories and the demand
for labor is gradually increasing.
All these are hopeful signs follow
ing the promise made by the people
themselves last fall when they went
to tho polls and called a halt on fur
Their legislation inimical to the in
terests Of home enterprise and home
labor; when they went to the polls and
ordered not only this halt, but the
election Of popular house of repres-
entatives so overwhelming Republi-
can that the assurance was at once
given that the order would be enfor-
ced. Figure 1t as we will, the pop
ular elections held since the present
came into power,
have, In their results, done more to
restore public confidence in the fu-
ture, unlock boarded capital aud turn

number of the North American Re-
view, just issued, an article on THE
Power and Wealth of the United
States" He asserts that the abso-
lutte effective force of the America n
people is now more than three times
what 1t was In 1880 and that the
United States possesses almost as
much energy as Great Britain. Ger
many and France collectively and
that the ratio falling to each Ameri-
can Is more than what two English
men or Germans have at their dispo-
sal. He points out by a careful CON-
parison between the conditions In
these different countries that an Or
binary farm hand in the United States
raises as much grain as three In Eng
land, four 10 France, Hve in Germany
or six In Austria. One man In Am

feeds only 80 persons. Mr.. Mulhall

go until paid by the contractors. The sher-
