Consul General Joseph G. Dudley, sta
toned at Nuevo Laredo, in a communi-
cation to the Department of State says
that as result of the recent fall in the
price of silver there has been a marked
rise in the price of all commodities in
Mexico. This is true of domestic pro-
ducts. Rents are included in the rise
of prices. He says there has been no
corresponding advance of wages or sal
aries. Labor, he states, stays on it's silver
basis

Our people are strong in the belief that
more prosperous times will prevail in this
State. Oar farmers and stockmen arc re-
cciying good prices on account Of failures
in India, Argentine Republic and Australia,

that legitimate mining is as safe as any
other enterprise and produces larger profits
to the investor.

Frank b. Dor,n, ST. Paul,

From jobbers and manufacturers stand
point. there is much of encouragement.
Business is good and improving. Our city
trade Is cautious, as almost everybody
Is exhausted from unwise investments in
real estate during boom times. The i'm
provement.- no doubt. comes from higher
prices for farm products from a natural re-
covery from collapse and from a strong
belief that the tariff question seems to be
settled for four years at least.

From all over the State come tidings of
Increased business activity. The rise in the

Bank deposits and clearances' are steadily
Increasing, and there is a general air of
confidence in the business outlook.

good crop of wheat and good prices as

good business and assure a good balance of

Of corn in cribs and good prospect for the

helped the price Of corn considerably Iowa

The settlement Of the tariff question, the
increased prices for our abundant crops, the

The tidal wave of prosperity and renewed
business confidence which is sweeping over
this great agricultural section of the Middle

prosperity is real thing, right here in our
