reduction made by Bryan and his free
trade associates.-Brookville American.

very perceptibly in the new impulse of life
which is going over the land The effect
of a renewal of confidence is, first, on the
manufacturing districts, where thousands
of men are being employed in anticipation
OF the early enactment of the law, and

and imports cease, so that manufacturers
can base calculations, thousands of other
hands will at once go to work. Activity
will then gradually extend to the agrcul-
tural sectons.-Lebanon Patriot.
