2,19S less during the first quarter of
1896 than the first quarter Of 1894. The
statistics for the month Of March for
each Of the years named are not of a
character to make one sanguine. The
March failures were as follows: 1888 in
1896. 1887 in 1895. and 93S in 1894. These
figures contain the explanation of the

On pavements broad the crowds 60 by
In labyrinthian human maze,
And back and forth as shuttles ply
The threads that meet the weavers gaze
Through mysteries Of nights and days
Faint limned upon the hollow sky.
On pavements broad the crowds go by

And time with them moment plays.
In feline fashion ere they lie
Under the sod In Strengthened ways,
Yet following after as they die.
On paveuients broad the crowds go by

II has been said that the American
people are getting to rely too much on
politics, parties and administrations as
good or hard times. If that were true
it would argue a decay of popular vigor
and independence. 1t is not a good
thing for a people to fall into the habit
of depending too much on the govern
ment or on legislation to create pros
perity, or, on the other hand, of holding
the government responsible for hard
times. Yet, if any people were ever justi
fed in adopting that view the people of
the United States are. 1t is hard for
people to resist the effect of repeated
experiences and object lessons. all point
ing one way and enforcing the same con-
clusion. The American people have had
1t impressed upon them so often by sue
cessive experiences that Republican ad-
minis.rations bring prosperity and DEM
ocratic administrations hard times that
ii would be surprising If they had not
finally concluded that there is an init
mate connection between politics and
business. There is and always will be,
as long as the Republican party is on
the right side and the Democratic party
on the wrong side Of great economic
questions like the tariff question. the
money question and others which vitality
affect business. AS long as these ques-
tons continue in politics just so long
will the people continue to look for pros
perity under Republican administra-
tons and hard times under Democratic.

Dun's Review of Saturday presents
the statistics OF failures for the first
quarter Of 1896 in comparison with those
in the corresponding quarter of 1894 and
1895. Dun's Review has no politics. AS
merchants and manufacturers look to it
to ascertain how far credits may be ex-
tended. Dun's Review is bound to give
what its intelligent managers believe to
be the truth about conditions. 1t gives
the number of failures in manufacturing
during the last quarter as S35. compared
with 651 during the corresponding quar-
ter Of 1895 and 900 in 1894. In trading
the number of failures in the respective
quarters were: 1896. s.f1s: 1895. s.107:

Western Kansas New Deal.

The Wichita Eagle says a new era
has come to western Kansas. The
calls for aid are all gone and the peo.
pie who remain have entered on a
new era. 1t says; That part Of
western Kansas which did send up
the wall for aid, justly, no doubt, has
passed from function OF trying to
raise breadstuff to the provence Of
furnishing the world with meat. In
its latter capacity it is prosperous.
The simple steer with his indolent
eyes is doing for western Kansas that

Clayeland's Message.

The last message to congress OF
President Cleveland is mastery eff
fort at saying nothing committal in
the course of several thousand words
of profound utterance. His advice on
the Cuban question leaves the public
with little more knowledge of his po-
sition than it had before. 1t is simply
to wait and see how things come out
and perhaps we may have to do some
thing. On finance his words have the
merit Of advising sound currency
ideals and he reiterates some of his
previous expressions on banking and
bond issuing. His pretended belief in
the present tariff laws efficiency II
it can be let alone is plainly the word
Of politician eager to bolster up his
party, for heretofore the president
has made no secret Of his disgust with
the measure.
The entire document is strongly in
contrast with President Harrison's
final message in which was struck SO
high note Of patriotism and Ameri-
canism. Then he pointed out an un-
exampled prosperity, men at work.
industries thriving, four years Of pro-
gress and happiness ending. Mr..
Cleveland can but look back on down.
ward path in the nations finances
and business life and it is scarcely to
be wondered at that he does not find
it in his heart to be very enthusiastic.
