clouds LInlng.

The dark clouds which have depressed
mems spirits for nearly a couple OF years
are gradually lifting and the country
seems to be making ready for another
era OF successful industry and for gainful
trade.
Hard times never last long in this
country. In the old times before the
railroad system made the markets co.
extensive with the natural In territory.
and many a farmer who had rsioiced
ever the bounty of nature had to use his
crop for fuel, 1t sometimes took long
time for the country to recover from a
financial crisls. But now the develop
nent Of the machinery Of commerce has
sweilsd the reouperAtive capacity OF the
nation to such a degree that recovery
follows on the heels Of depression, and
people hardly fully realize that they are
hoorsd before they find they are on their
feet again.
The prospect is that 1895 will be a good
year everywhere and that purchases
Of property made during the period Of
depression win turn out lucky ventures

Indiana's New Liquor Law.

The Legislature Of that state, at It's
recent session, passed what is known IS
the Nicholson law, and the enforcement
OF lt--or an effort In that direction-is
already creating some unplessantness,
and Is billed TO produce very interesting
developments. IL Is not a prohibitory

doubtless intended to be, decidedly

way obstruct the view OF the interior
from the street; that the room shall be
used for no other purpose than that OF
liquor selling; that che license shall BE-
granted In the name Of the proprietor,
and that no man shall mold more than
one license; that every license holder
must prove that he has been a resident

John Mason, tho only one in the house
at the Time could not be found He is a
son of W. II. Mason, n wealthy New York

as he is not accustomed to staying around

the murder. The dead girl was formerly
a servant for Mrs. Diamond johnson and

From the New York Times.
TO sensible men OF all parties, and
particularly to souud-money men Of the
Democratic party, tue action Of the lead
ing Democrats in the latest Memphis
convention is decidedly encouraging.
That convention met In the name OF
bimetallism, under the guidance OF such
furious free silver zsalobs as Bryan, OF
Nebraska, and Slbley, OF Pennsylvania
These men, Democrats ia name, but
demsgogues both, we're apparently SO
lected because Of their recent connection
with the Democratic party to head a
movement that would have been more
appropriately led by Nevada Stewart or
his senatorial partner, Bonanza"
Jones. Ii was unquestionably the
hope and expectation of the
promoters and managers OF the
convention TO secure from that body
declaration for free silver that would
