= c BRACEBILL. a commercial traveller
q of Bellefont. Pa, is registered at
the Metropolitan.
Mr.. Bracebill sd vs. tha5 he has been on the
road ever since the Thursday following
election day. and although he has been in
husiness many years he has never seen
such activity. The minute lie struck the
road he perceived an increase or at least
fifty per cent in the volume of his business
over what it had been before election.
And il has kept on steadily increasing. he
saws and he believes that before Christmas
time his factory will be unable to- fill all
the orders sent in. The change in busi-
ness he believes. is due not so much to great
purchases on the part of the con nsamer, as to
the fact that the retail dealer is not afraid
to lay in an advance stock.
Before election the retailers would buy
very Gingerly, only enough to just supply
their trade for a limited period. But now
they are stocking up as literally as in the
most prosperous of periods. This confidence
Will naturally react on the customers of
the merchants, and thus trade will be built
up.
Mr. Rracebill also says that no one who
has not made trip through the East, as he
has, can appreciate the change apparent in
manufacturing tCA-ns. Where before the
election one saw closed shutters and groups
of idlers, now everything is wide open and
everybody has employment.
Altogether. he predicts a very prosperous
winter season for the country after the re-
cent stagnation in trade.

reasons for visiting Washington was to
see the new library. Even iii Europe he
had heard of its beauty Friends who had
visited the United States eXtolled it to
him, and notices in periodicals also made
him desirnus TO visit it.
So, yesterday afternoon, Immediately
upon his arrival In the city, he went to
see IT. He saws that hc was not disap-
pointed In the least. He regards it, in
side and out, as the most beautiful library
bnlGliug in the world, aud one OF the most
beautiful of any class Of edifices. It's con-
>i>Jency and the harmonious effect of the
whole particularly pleased him. He com
pared it Ia the National library Of Paris,
Ia the British Mu>cuiu and to the library
at Boston, and said tiat 1t exceIled every

- SHIRE, of Indiana, is in the city,

and guest at the National.
Mr.. brooksmre, although he was warm
supporter of the Democratic ticket, and
believed firmly that silver was our only
financial remedy, feels bound TO concede
that the revival of business since the cleo
ton of Mckinley is fact.
If this business activity should prove TO
he permanent, and not a spasmodic reac-
lion to ante election troubles, he thinks,
il will do much to disintegrate the silver
movement, If not to cause II to disappear
entirely. Notwithstanding this fact, how
ever, Mr. Brookshire says, he and every
other honest man in the country, irrespcct-
i've or party is glad to see the change for
the better in the nations affairs, even If
1t should lose to the Democrats every vote
in the country.
In the local politics OF his State, where,
Of course, the financial question was not an
issue to any great extent, Mr.. Brookshire
thinks the outlook for his party is very
brignt. The four democrats whom they are
returning to the House are all men whohay
good records as politicians, and are men
OF affairs, and he expects each OF them to
give "A good account of himself in the coin
ing Congress.
The one around whom interest principally
centers is of course, Judge Holman, 1.-THE
watchdog of the Treasury" This Is the
seventeenth time that he has been sent to
Congress by his district. He will probably
be seen in Washington for many years
more, as II is certain that his constituents
viii return him as often as he cares to stand

American people will forever settle the
question of free silver. AS the roll was
called and showed that Senator Palmer
was receiving a very large majority,
General Bragg arose and thanking those
who had given him their support, moved
the unanimous nomination of Senator
Palmer. This was carried, and the
chairman announced officially that Gem
eral j. NJ Palmer is the nominee of the

The new national committee assem-

candidates should take place at Louis
