Crop and business Prospects Good.

Crop and business Prospects Good.
week OF exceptionally favorable
weather for the growing crops and a
complete absence of developments of Il
nature calculated to unsettle confidence
have brought about further improve
ment in the business situation. This
improvement is not to he measured by
the volume of clearing house exchanges
although the increase of II per cent
over the same week last year is a
sure indication of progress, because
many merchants and manufacturers
are holding back awaiting a clearer
manifestation of the improvement that
is already sufficiently obvious to many
But the increase in railroad earnings
during June of more than per cent
as compared with the same period last
year, and the steady purchases of Sc
curities by American investors whish
have advanced the average price of
stocks / per cent in the week and 5b
per cent since the upward movement
began early in May, are corroborative
and additional evidences of the prog
ress toward better conditions that is
steadily becoming more apparent.
The important positive influence un-
doubtedly is the improving condition
Of the growing crops. The weather
| has been most satisfactory all over the
| country, being warm where warmth
was most needed. and rainy where ad-
ditional moisture was required. The
result is that complaints of damage,
which usually figure so largely at this
season, are almost entirely absent. AS
| to wheat, the winter wheat harvest is
| nearing completion, and is admitted
that the previous calculations of the
crop were entirely too low. The crop
may run up to 30O,000,000 bushels, or
| 60,000,000 bushels more than the gov
ernment estimate indicated as prob
able, while spring wheat is progress
ing SO finely and has been SO extensive
ly sown that an immense harvest is
reasonably certain here. Our total
wheat crop may run up to 0,0CO,0 900
bu, or 125.OO0,OO0 bushels more than
last year. This remarkable prospect
has not in the least lowered prices,
which on the contrary have risen 11a
cents bushel on the confirmation of
reports of damage to the European
crops 1t is a significant circumstance
that the September option is cents a
bushel below the july price, indicating
a belief that the known necessities of
Europe will compel purchases before
the foreign crops can be harvested.

The Maker and the Taker.

There is no motive to make prod
uct If you can't find somebody to take
it. The maker must find the taker.
You will not employ labor to make a
product IL you cannot find buyer for
that product after labor has made it.
President Mckinley.
This is so obvious a truth that we
may suppose that even free-trader
would agree To it. The conclusions in
cvitably resulting from this truth are
equally obvious. Why the free-traders
cannot see them is one of the mystic
ries of the nineteenth century. 1t
ought to be perfectly plain that if, by
free trade, the products of foreign
manufacturers are brought into this
country to undersell American man
ufactures, the foreign makers" will
find all the takers" and the result
will be that American manufacturers
will not be able to find buyers for
their products, and will, therefore, not
employ labor to make those products.
The reasoning is perfectly simple. But
we have had something more than
reasoning in regard to it during the
last four years. We have had a prac-
teal demonstration. The dOctrinaires
and hide-bound free-traderS may not
yet have had their eyes opened, but
the people of the country have. And
that's why William Mckinley is pres
ident of the United States.

Prescription the third, for the cure
of all our individual and national fl
nancial distresses; great spiritual
awakening 1t is no more theory. The
merchants of this country were posi-
lively demented with the monetary ex-
citement in 1857. There never before
nor since has been such state OF IL
nancial depression as there was at that
time. A revival came, and five hundred
thousand people were born into the
kingdom of God. What came after the
revival? The grandest financial pros
perity We have ever had in this coun-
try. The finest fortunes. the largest
fortunes in the United States, have
been made since 1857. Well you say,
what has spiritual improvement and
revival to do with monetary improve
ment and reviva1?" Much 70 do. The
religion of Jesus Christ has a direct
tendency to make men honest and
sober and truth-telling, and are not
honesty and sobriety and truth-telling
auXiliaries of material prosperity? II
We could have an awakening in this
country as in the days of Jonathan Ed
wards of Northampton, as in the days
of DR.. Findley of Basking Ridge, as in
the days of Dr.. Griffin Of Boston, the
whole land would rouse to higher
moral tone. and with that moral tone
the honest business enterprise of the
country would come up. You say a
great awakening has an influence upon
the future world. I tell you it has a
direct influence upon the financial
welfare of this world. The religion of

M'KINLEY IN WASHINGTON
PRESIDENT-ELEC ENTERS THE
CAPITAL WITHOUT OsTENT4TION.

Colonel MoCook and MIR. bliss stin Re-
garded as Cabinet Possibilities-Train
Bearing the Presidential Party Enthusi-
astically Greeted.
Washington, March 2-President-
elect and Mrs. Mckinley and their
party arrived at the Ebbitt house at
30 o'clock this morning. Their recep-
ton was as free from ostentation as
they could have desired. They were
rather ahead of time, and less than
1000 persons were gathered in the vicin-
ity OF the hotel. A dozen policemen
check. When the carriage turned into
Fourteenth street from Pennsylvania
avenue it was driven up to the hotel
entrance at rapid pace. The only &C
tual escort was a score of small boys
on bicycles. All military and civic
demonstration at the hotel had been
omitted at the request of Major Nc
Kinley. By the time the crowd had
recognized the occupants of the car
riage and shouted Here they are"
which was followed by hearty cheer,
Major and Mrs. Mckinley had disap-
peared into the hotel. The crowd of
sightseers then dispersed.
The president-elect looked the picture
of health. He removed his hat and
bowed right and left to the crowd be-
fore he got out of the carriage.
The coming of President Nc
Kinley to-day overshadowed all else
and caused a temporary lull in cabinet
gossip. The cabinet is not complete
and will not be according to all relia-
BILE information until the president
elect has conferred with number of
republican leaders from various states.
The city is filing up at a rapid rate
to-day, and the attendance at the in
auguration will probably exceed all pre-
vious records. The sky is clear, the sun
shines warm and bright. There is a
general undercurrent of rejoicing over
the fact that a change of administra-
ton is at hand.
