BETTER TIAESC COMING.

The news of Mcklnleys cleo
ton has lifted m immense burden
Of anxiety from the minds Of al
the millions engaged in trade and
industry and Of the financial and
business world in general. The
immediate effect was seen yester'
day in the advance Of wheat and
in the active demand and rising
prices for American securities. 1t
cannot fail to show itself in in.
creased activity IN all lines OF
business this fall. 1t cannot, OF
course, be expected that there will
be any sudden Or abrupt change
for the better. But the great
stumbling block has been removed
from the road which leads
back to prosperity, and the
result on Tuesday has put the
country on the way to better
times.-Pioneer Press.

G. A. Pillsbury thus exp ss
his views on the results d ae
election: II am partiq MY
pleased with the result in Mine
sofa. Those Eastern newspa ers,
which were claiming that thls
state was doubtful, are now find
ing out that Minnesota gave
relatively larger majority for
Mckinley than Ohio, Indiana and
Michigan states, which were also
said to be in doubt. If there eyer
was state entitled to be depended
upon by its past record, it is Min.
nesota. There was never the re-
hottest chance of it's casting It's
vote for Bryan. The fact that SO
many Eastern papers called it
doubtful had the effect of making
many people think so, when the
truth was that from hrSt TO last
and from every section and corner
of the state, there never was the
least indication that it was in the
least doubtful. I predict that the
business men of Minnesota and
Wisconsin will find it much
easier to raise money for enter
prises than those Of Kansas and
Nebraska. I confidently believe
that we are on the eve Ct an era of
prosperity, and now that the
silver1tes are defeated, [ hope
that they will keep still. -
