BUSINESS,

Henry Clews, in summing up the busi- ness of the week just closed, says in gen. erai trade the prospects remain encourage ing. It is conceded in all markets that prices have touched bottom; and that lays basis for buying which has not existed for the last two years. Manufacturers have pretty generally reached stage at which they can afford to produce at the current scale of prices, though perhaps with strictly moderate profits; and the consequence is an increase of orders, and preparations for materially enlarged production. In all branches of the iron trade, excepting per haps steel rails, there is a very distinct im- provement in business; which is the more gratifying because that industry is always accepted as the true indication of the state of business at large. The cotton goods trade has entered on a healthier stage, and with the rise in raw cotton, fabrics are ad- vancing in price. The woolen trade shows a better demand, but the manufacturers are held in some restraint by fears of the trades unions demanding an advance in wages. In articles of comestic consumption, such as groceries, etc., there is steady inn provement of demand, which shows that the consumptive ability of the people is on the increase. In brief, the trade of the country generally affords evidence of rec sumption of natural conditions, but on an exceptionally low scale of prices, which seems likely to prove more or less perma- uent

RIGHT VOL ARE. BROTHER.

Nothing so much helps the good name and fame abroad of city as the excellence of it's newspapers. That has been an unfailiDg merit oi the Evening News, and Birmingham owes it a handsome living.-Daily State.
 ''But there are others" to use the latest catch phrase. Birmingham has many workers in her midst, notably the Inde- pendent; the fearless, well-edited German paper, the Courier; that charming gath erer of ''chit-cnat,' the Sunday Morning Star; the Labor Advocate, ever watchful of the interest of the horney handed waGe- earner; the Birmingham Times, the apos- tie of Republicanism, edited by our fa- nous friend, Dr. Moseley; the Birmingham Ledger; the Peoples Tribune, and last, though not least, the journal of all jour nals, the Christian Advocate, not to speak of the State itself. With commendable modesty it has rcfrained from singing it's own praises, but it's excellence as a worker for Birmingham remains unchanged. It would seem it has adopted for it's motto the statesman's words, "With charity for all aud malice toward none." Such paper, with capital in the business office and brain iu the editorial chair, is sure to reflect great credit upon it's surroundings. Bir- mingham is to be congratulated.

THE Railway Age of Chicago finds that in 1890 there were 12 train robberies by brigauds, or "hold-ups;" in 1891, 16; iu 1892, 16; in 1893, 3S, and in 1894, a4. Within day or two we have had two cases of "hold-ups," so that the 1895 record promises to assist the above figures in proving that this crime is on the in- crease. Where it should be the most hazardous and dangerous of criminal un- dertakings, train-robbing has become one of the safest, apparently. That pleasing exception of the Cincinnati Southern ex- press in Kentucky Wednesday ought to be a precedent for more of the same sort

THE INDUSTRIOUS SCHOOL.

The attention of the progressive citizen of Birmingham is called to Governor Oates' letter to Senator Milner, printed in another column of this issue. Why can't Birming- ham capture this plum? Are there not men enough in this city with moderate means who can contribute S25 or $50 toward rais- ing a fund to meet the issue? What say you, knights of the quill, can you not use your persuasive Fabers for the advance ment of this object?

Now that the Mahoning and shenango Valley iron manufacturers have signed the wage scale in operation last year, it is to be hoped that the fires in the Birmingham Rolling Mill furnaces will again be rekin- dled aud all hands sent to work without further delay. The action of the Amalga- mated Association of this city is printed in another column, and the only regret'is that they did not wait just one more day and the difference would have been settled without the necessity of meeting.

GOVERNOR MCKINLEY's remarks during his contemplated tour through the West will be noted carefully. He will undoubt- edly be called upon 10 define his position on the silver question more definitely than he has. heretofore. His reported declara- ton that he would leave the Republican party should it declare for free silver still remains unconfirmed; and during his pres- ent sickness in Florida some of his friends are undertaking to say that he might have declared he would not be a Presidential candidate in that case, but could hardly have asserted he would leave the party.

0EdiN uuu tdbb pOSSeSSlO0B on this continent as late as 100 years ago. Louisiana, including the great tract ex- lending Northwest through what is now Arkansas, Kansas and Nebraska, was still Spanish soil; and so was Florida, not to speak of Mexico and Central America-all making mighty empire of inconceivable natural wealth and possibilities for devel- opment. With so much lost forever, it is not strange that the proud Castilians should strive most desperately to keep the only jewel left--the "Pearl of the Antilles '' which is Cuba, now in the throes of an- other bloody and exbausting insurrection, The determination to send General Campos to lead the government forces against the rebels shows how alarmed the Spaniards are over the Cuban situation, how fearful Of disastrous termination of the uprising.

Death Of Mrs. Thomas Combs.

Died, on Saturday, April Goth, at her
home near Wawawsi, Francis, beloved
wife OF Thomas Combs, aged 3S years, 6
months and % days, heart disease being
the immediate cause OF death.
The sudden death of this estimable
lady was a great shock to all of her
friends and neighbors. her family being
plunged in the deepest sorrow at her be-
ing taken from them without moments
warning. Deceased was kind and low
ing wife and devoted mother, and was
always ready to lend helping hand to
friend or neighbor. She was the mother
OF nine children, three of whom had pre-
coded her to that better land, while
Laura, George, Ether, Ellsworth, Sam
-uel and an infant but few days old re-
main to mourn the loss of an affectionate
mother. She also leaves two sisters,
Mrs. Matte Goodwin, of California, and
Mrs. Hattie Cayton, of Bear Greek,
Idaho, and three brothers, two of whom
reside in Oregon, and one, M. B. Myers,
being well-known resident near Pull
man.
The funeral was held from the Ontario
church, being conducted by Rev. G. F.
Pickell, who spoke many words of COM
fort to the stricken family. The remains
were followed to their last resting place
by many sorrowing friends who had
assembled to pay their last mark of res
pect to ona beloved by all.
A profusion of flowers lent their beauty
and perfume to the sad occasion, the
casket being covered with flowers
brought by loving hands.

The Reservation Outlook.

News OF the past week regarding the
Nez Perez reservation and the payment
OF the money to the Indians has been
the most cheering kind, says the Lewis
ton Teller. A reliable citizen of this city
received letter from Senator Shoup last
Friday, stating that the Indians would
receive their long-expected payment of
government money at once, and immedi-
ate action on the opening of the reserva-
tion would be taken. 1t is claimed that
the checks have been issued and they
are being daily expected. Equally as
reliable information as this, has been
obtained by various citizens and BUSH
ness houses during the past week, and
there seems to be but one conclusion
arrived at and that is that the Indians
will come in possession of their money
within very short time, and possibly
before the close os the week. 1t ID to be
earnestly hoped that the present state
of affairs will terminate in firm reality,
90 that the large and fertile tract of land,
now lying idle, can be settled up by the
white man and made to yield forth ita
rich returns. No finer public domain
can be found anywhere in the United
States, and thousands of people are just
shrewd enough to know this fact, and
are only waiting for an opportunity to
come and claim small portion of it, up
on which they can make home for
themselves and families.
