THE BUSINESS SHRINKAGE.

During the past year the people
have been led to believe that there has
been a marked increase Of business,
and that there is no need Of more money
in the country. because times are i'm
proving. This is all a sham showing
TO stop the wave of natural discomfort,
and quiet the demand of the people
for silver reconciliation.
For the real facts regarding bust
ness, read the last trade report of R.
G.. Dun & Co. 1t declares that there
is mo real reaction in business.
Gains which were recognized as tenn
porary are vanishing. but there re-
mains a decided increase over last
year, although prices average S.o per
cent lower than a year ago. 1t needs
no keen observer to see that "a re-
action against rapid advance Of prices
is strong.' Then the report particu-
larizes. Wheat jumped over zoe to
SAC. but is now slow Of sale above Csc.
Wool has lost 5c in the last fortnight,
Many shops are discharging hands in
the boot and shoe business, and in
wooden manufactures a few works
are closing. The sales Of wool have
shrunken from 10000, 900 pounds per
week for several weeks to 5,37O,5 500
pounds for last week. The best fea-
lures in all the horizon is the certainly
of an enormous corn crop. The point
in all that is that there is no rel re
action in business. Temporary gains
are vanishing, and most serious of
all is that prices have fallen SIS per
cent in a single year. The truth is
being forced down the threats Of PEG
pie every day that the tendency is
toward shrinkage and not toward az
pansion. We do not know as the
stubborn gold men Of the East will
ever confess the fact, but the prOduc.
ing classes cannot bear very many
more years Of s~hrinkage. They viii.
have to adopt an economy equal tc
that of the Chinese, or become absO
lutte serfs, which seems the more prob
able, or, rising against intOlerable OPP
preston, they will try revolution, jus
tifying their act by the plea that any
change cannot make things worse.

1t begins to look as if the wal was
really over when n reads the &C
counts of the big army reunion in
Louisville, KY, on the 18th. The dis
patches say:
Thousands of "Johnnies" grew
hOarse in cheering the Yankees along
the line, and the ladies from Louis
vile and from all parts of the South
in brilliant dress Joined in the great
chorus of cheers. 1t was a general
remark that there were never so many
old, lame and feeble men in line, but
they proudly kept step and "tramped,
tramped, tramped" as if they were
still bows ''marching through Geor-
gia."
Silver advocates are looking forward
with interest to the arrival in San

will arrive in San Francisco next
Monday. 1t is very probable that a
big reception will be given him. He
will make several speeches there, and
afterward help the work Of Organiza-

NEWLANDS AND SILVER.

In a recent article on what Nevada
has done for silver, mention was
made Of the way the silver men of the
State give their unconditional support
to Jones and Stewart in their fight for
reconciliation. The paragrapy orig
inally contained the names Of Jones,
Stewart and Newlands, but a careless
compositor omitted the name of Mr..
Newlands, whose brain, time, and
money has always been at the dispo-
sal Of his constituents, so much sc
that the omission Of his name from
the article has caused considerable
comment among his friends,
We trust that the papers Of the
State that copied the original articl,
will .also find room for this one.
An omission of his name was purely
accidental.
