Prosperity 4. Here.

From all the great agricultural states
come reports OF tremendous crops.
From the same states come reports of
an improving financial condition and
OF other large amounts Of Indebtedness
discharged. The farmers Of the United
States will have money TO spend next
fall, and consequently trade and manu-
features of all kinds will be stimulated.
The country merchants will be able to
make large purchases and the city mer-
chants will be able 20 dispose of large
stocks. Not only are the big crops In
sight, but the work of transporting
them has already begun. The railroads
are beginning, or in n few days will
begin, TO make money. II is expected
that the tariff bill will be passed this
week. Whether II Is or not, the long
uncertainty about the tariff is over.
business knows under what conditions
II must proceed and IL will proceed con-
fidently, in harmony with the encourag-
ing facts and prospects all over the
country. Prosperity for all Is here
not a prosperity of her paper and hope,
but actual, tangible, resting on the In
disputable and convincing fact OF ag-
ricultural prosperity, without which
general prosperity in this country can
not to-day exist. The days Of crook-
ing are past. There Is work 10 do and
money 10 be made by everybody who
Is not n loafer or an incompetent. The
people OF the United States are going
10 work and TO make money. The
prophets OF disaster will find their oc-
Supation gone. The politics Of disaster
will be- MAIDS futile by this period Of
good times which has bcgun.--N. Y,

"THE COST OF IT."
Forty-Two Billions of Business
Lost Under Democracy.
American Prosperity Transferred 10
London-striI<ing Results Proven
by bank CIearings-Dnwn of
N New Era.

Well may the people of the United
States thank God that we have at length
seen the end of the democratic expert
ment with free trade, or tariff re-
FORM" as the mugwumps called it. For
two years and eleven months, less four
days, the deadly blight" of industrial
stagnation-for which Grover Cleveland
was Immediately and directly RESPONSE
ble--has been forced upon us. For near
ly two years prior TO the enactment of
the law of 'perfidy and dishonor" its
baneful effects were felt. Since the
close OF 1892, when il was known that
a democratic congress and democrat
ic president had been elected, and that
their threat OF free trade would be put
into execution, the industrial enter
prises OF the United States have been
paralyzed with fear. The banks fore
saw the impending danger TO American
manufacturers through the contem-
plated influx of cheap foreign goods,
and, foreseeing the danger, the banks
promptly locked up their capital so
that the evils of the free trade policy
were felt long before the free trade
tariff law was placed upon our statutes.
And the evil did not end last week
with the substitution of the Dingley
tariff for protection in place of the law
of "perfidy and dishonor" of the demo-
cratic party. Anticipating the most
natural idea of protection for American
interests, the foreign manufacturing
and producing interests have taken
IL
bag production" that emanated from
the democratic party, and have flooded
our markets with foreign goods that,
in some instances, cannot be consumed
within twelyemonth. Thus the
deadly blight" of democratic ''perfidy
and dishonor" has spread it's work of
ruin and wreckage over a period of al
most five years, blasting the hopes of
our people, running thousands, bring
ing idleness, hunger and starvation in
its trail, compelling the natural accom-
paniments OF free trade-such as free
soup, free bread and free clothing.
Meanwhile the American people have
suffered and waited.
OF their sufferings history can never
tell. But their patience has been bright
ened by the more recent knowledge
that n republican congress would bring
relief as speedily as the democratic and
popocratic obstructlonists in the United
States senate would permit. That relief
has come, partially only for the pres
ent, but IL will be permanent and profit
able, we hope, as soon as the last rem
nants Of the rags and shoddy products
OF cheap European labor have disap-
pcared from our markets. And what
has been the cost Of this experiment
with free trade, OF the practical work
ings OF the democratic doctrine of free
raw material? It's actual cost, in dol
lars and cents, no man can ever esti-
mate, but we can show how the busi-
ness OF the city OF New York was trans
ferrcd 20 London, as follows:

SOUTH AMERICAN lovers have a pretty
custom. IL is well known that when
the petals of the great laurel magnolia
are touched, however lightly, the result
is brown spot which develops in a
few hours. The fact is taken advantage
of by the lover, who pulls magnolia
flower, and on one OF its pure white
petals writes motto or message with
a hard, sharp-pointed pencil. Then he
sends the flower, the young lady puts
IL ia vase Of water, and in three or
four hours the message written ON the
leaf becomes visible.

Win IL be possible for demagogues
90 keep mp the calamity howl and make
IL winner In states whose people are
thriving as are those of Colorado. Ne
braska and Kansas? Whether they be-
lieye that they are getting on In spite OF
the gold standard or through that
standards helping influence, they are
sure that somehow they are going
ahead. This being the case, will IL be
advisable 20 try TO convince taem that
their faces are set toward bankruptcy
and the poor asylums? Changed con-
ditions often neceSsitate n change OF
tactics in politics and war. We saw the
other day that our democratic friends
IN Iowa made blunder In putting into
their platform n declaration that the
farmers had been selling their crops at
reduced prices since the November cleo
ton. That was an awkward blGnder.
for all the farmers knew that IL was not
true. IL was simply keeping up a cry
that had become obsolete.-w Washing

But study the effect Of our democratic
fiscal policy upon the London market,
upon English trade and upon English
enterprise. With practically no change
in 1892 and 1893, followed by decline
in 1894. when our business was para
lyzed and millions Of our people were
idle, the business Of London grew TO
nearly S37, Oo0,O0O,0oo in 1895 and in 1896.
it's volume then equaling the extent of
our business in 1892, when we had pro-
lection. In other words, there was a
complete transfer of prosperity from
the United States TO the United King
dom under the democratic policy of free
trade. Following are the entire bank
clearings of the United States, both at
New York and outside of New York,
from 1892 to 1896, inclusive:

All these protests from foreign coun-
tries against our new tariff law serves
only 20 emphasize the value which
those countries place on the American
market. The free traders have always
been the devoted friends OF foreigners,
and have imbibed many OF their ideas.
IL Is great pity that they have not
learned the one thing most vital 10
them. and which Is so clearly recognized
by their foreign friends, viz, the great
value and importance ot The American
home market.

Ex-senator McEnery's reception in
New Orleans on his return after his
vote and earnest work In behalf OF the
Dingley tariff law was something
unique. A democratic senator work
ing for and supporting republican
protective tariff measure IL new
thing under the sun, especially so when
IL comes from the older class Of south
ern democrats as was the case with
Senator McEnery. But Mr.. McEnery
did work for and vote for the Dingley
bill and his action was cordially COM
mended by a meeting of thousands of
democrats In his own city.

AMERICAN BANK CLEARINGs.

Comparing the figures for 1894 with
those of 1892 we find that the amount
of business transacted in the United
States, as represented by our bank
clearings, declined At the rate of $751;
100000 a year within two years un-
der the democratic administration. In
the year 1896 our loss of business had
been almost S1t 200, 900, 900 as compared
with 1899. In 1895 the loss was almost
50, OO0,O 900. In 1893 il was more than
So, 900, 900. So that since the repub-
lican administration of the United
States, under President Harrison, and
during the democratic administration
OF the country under President Cleve-
land, there has been total loss of bust
ness, as compared with 1892, aggregat-
ing the enormous sum Of $4,000, 00O,oon
in the four democratic years.
II is impossible TO realize the full
meaning OF this stupendouS loss. But
we are determined 20 face the evil
bravely, TO buckle to our strength for
fight for the restoration of prosperity
under the Dingley tariff for protection
that was signed by President Mckinley
ON Saturday, July "a, 1897. This will
remain in American history as the date
of the dawn of new and bright indus
trial era In the United States.--Charles
X. auckland.

A RUSSIAN inventor has constructed
an apparatus which is to enable people
buried alive 10 communicate with the
outer world should they awake from
their trance in the grave. The inven-
tion consists in the main of a button ON
the inside Of the coffin, situated imme-
diately over the breast OF the appar-
emily dead person. IL the unfortunate
person comes 10 life and begins TO
breathe, the first action of the body is
the expansion of the chest; this presses
the button upward, and an alarm bell
is set going in the Office OF the supcrin-
tendent of the cemetery.

To-day the number Is s54. The large

employees has rot increased In proper
