The Pioneer Press Of November 9Th,
says:
Why this hearty, unfeigned rejoicing
by everybody-even by the Democrats
at what happened to this country on
Tuesday? Because it is accepted by
everybody as as substantial guarantee
of the business prosperity of the coun-
try, or at least that there will be no
legislative interference with the con-
ditions on which that prosperity de-
ponds. Tuesdays elections were the
biggest boom for business which has
occurred In this country since the re-
sumption OF specie payments. 1t
means that the war Of demagogueS
and fools upon our currency, our in
dustries, our national and commercial
credit, is ended, and that the country
is safe from the dangers which beset
It's material interests. HencefOrth
the men who have money or are able
to command it will not hesitate to in
vest it in mills or factories or IN loans
to those engaged IN nleritOriOns business en-
te1prises FIR fear their industries aodl be
crippled or their Investments imperilled by
naischierOus legislation. A new era Of
PROSPERITY OPENS BEFORE US along
the path marked out by the Republi-
can landslide of Tuesday.

many of them from the Pioneer-Press
columns-and observe the dates that
accompany them: and rejoice that
